After rebirth, I made the princes cry

The third prince's eyes widened.

The Fifth Highness was helpless.

He was really exhausted. He drank a large bowl of tea soup before he felt that his throat was not so restless. He continued to try to persuade the third prince: "Pan Chi is not in Yaohua Palace now. Third brother insists on tracking down the falsified accounts." There was no way to interrogate him about the matter. The personnel affairs of the palace did not have the same regulations as Ouchi. In the past, Pan Chi controlled everything big and small, let alone the maids below. Even the other eunuchs couldn't tell whether Pan Chi was included in the accounts. The fraud, whether those artifacts were damaged or stolen and sold by him, can only be investigated after returning to the palace and reporting it to the emperor.

It has only been half a year since Lu An was transferred to Yaohua Palace, and he has not discovered Pan Chi's reputation in the accounts, let alone covering up the crime. It is illegal for the third brother to torture him and interrogate him, so I will talk about this. Matters need to be reported to the Emperor Father for decision. "

"If Lu An hadn't been the prince's personal servant, would fifth brother have been arguing with me over a mere minister of his?"

"Third brother, are you questioning me for protecting the crown prince brother?"

"It's obviously the fifth brother who is spitting blood!"

Nanji:? ? ?

During this trip to Alchemy, he almost looked at Sikong Mujiao with admiration. Facts have proved that Sikong Mujiao is still Sikong Mujiao. No matter what happens, it will ultimately be based on the struggle for power and position.

"I have objections to the recommendation of Lu An as the minor selector by the Chinese Women's History. It is true that the minor selector was sometimes served by eunuchs in the past, but the eunuchs responsible for this matter are all experienced and experienced people. Lu An, regardless of rank or qualifications, All of them are obviously lacking. Apart from the fact that he was once the prince's personal attendant, I really can't figure out what other advantages he has that are enough to take on such an important responsibility."

When Yingshu came, she happened to hear the third prince's words. She had no intention of giving in and asked instead: "Then I would like to ask, Your Highness, whether those experienced and experienced minor election envoys in the past, including the court officials responsible for the minor election, have any Have you ever investigated the crime of threatening the daughter of another person to replace the elected household, and have you urged the local government to effectively provide compensation to the elected household?"

The third prince was speechless.

Yingshu held up her skirt slightly, entered the room, sat on the table, took a cup of tea from Nanci, and took a long sip: "It is indeed because of His Royal Highness that I recommended Lu Neichen to be the minor selector. Although the qualifications of the ministers are insufficient, I am sure that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must be aware of His Majesty's painstaking efforts in adjusting the system of small selections. In fact, the selection of small selections does not depend on how talented one is. The key is that he must be loyal and meticulous. With the supervision of His Highness the Crown Prince, Lu The ministers will definitely work conscientiously."

"Does the middle-aged lady Shi know Pan Chi's crime?" The third prince lost a small game, but still refused to admit defeat.

"Have heard a little bit."

"Does it mean that Chinese women in history also feel that they should be indulged and protected?"

"Your Majesty has not given me the authority to investigate corruption and abuse of law by the ministers. Therefore, regarding Pan's behavior, I can only return to the palace to report to His Majesty for punishment."

Nanci glared at the third prince angrily: "I said the same thing just now, but I still can't convince the third brother."

Ying Shu smiled: "Although I have no authority, Your Highness is a prince. I know that Pan Neichen is suspected of embezzlement, so I can naturally investigate it. Although the suspect is not in Yaohua Palace now, his embezzlement was committed in Yaohua Palace." Your Majesty, since someone has already impeached His Highness, Your Highness can of course ask for witnesses and verify the accusation."

These words stunned the two princes.

The third prince was even more unbelievable than Nanci: "The middle-aged woman Shi really thinks I should investigate?"

"I guess that although Pan Neichen falsified the accounts, it is not difficult to verify his crime of falsely reporting expenses. The materials for the Yaohua Palace were purchased from imperial securities companies, and the imperial securities companies will naturally have accounts. If Pan Neichen really did it, If there is a false account, there will be discrepancies between the two accounts. If there is also the crime of stealing and selling utensils, those utensils must have been sold in Dantu City. The utensils in Yaohua Palace have palace-made inscriptions, and legitimate merchants must If you don't dare to collect the stolen goods, Pan Neichen must be looking for a shady deal. Although it is difficult to find out, it is not impossible. There may be some ruffians in the city who know the secret."

Nanci couldn't help but open up his mind: "Eunuchs collect money, but they have nowhere to store the money and silk. Most of them will be used to buy land and houses, so they need to go through the official comprador. Of course, others have no right to access the official records. If my brother comes forward, Guan Ya will naturally not have the guts to refuse. In fact, if we can find Pan’s assets of unknown origin, his crime will be confirmed.”

Eunuchs who reach a certain rank can enjoy the privilege of purchasing property. Pan Chi has not reached that rank yet, but of course he will fight for the privilege. When he is transferred to Yaohua Palace, he will have a way to make money. So she would buy fields and houses in advance, and even raise private slaves, so that the purchased fertile fields could produce rice and continue to create financial profits. It was not that Yingshu couldn't find out Pan Chi's crime of corruption. She just felt that it was unnecessary. Pan Chixing was all The little villain can't be said to be a good person, but he is far from cruel. Compared with many nobles who bully the people, what Pan Chi stole and sold was the private property of the royal family, and it did not damage the foundation of the royal family. But now the three The prince wants to investigate Pan Chi's crimes. As a prince, he certainly has the qualifications to do so.

Yingshu resolved the dispute between the two princes and saw that the two brothers worked together to investigate Pan Chi's crime. She did not stay here longer. As soon as she returned to Mingjian Pavilion, she had not turned around the south corridor. Listening to He Nvzhi's voice, this time He Nvzhi did not carry the food box, but held the hem of her skirt in one hand. Following her steps, the tassels on her skirt ruffled.

"Did the female prisoner ever dissuade His Highness the Third Highness from pursuing Pan Neichen's crime of embezzlement?"

"Why should I dissuade you?" Ying Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, looking particularly surprised.

"Hey! I heard that the Fifth Highness had a dispute with the Third Highness over this matter, and I thought... the female supervisor would help the Fifth Highness."

"I don't have that much ability." Yingshu narrowed her eyes: "I see that the female deacon is so impatient because she is extremely worried that Pan Neichen will be accused. But I just heard what the female deacon said in the morning. She clearly hates Pan Neichen for being too much. Too arrogant and domineering."

"I am worried that not only Pan Neichen will be held accountable, but also Ashen and I will be implicated. Didn't His Highness the Third Prince point it out that Lu Neichen will be held responsible for covering up?"

"You don't have to worry, the female deacons." Yingshu smiled: "Since Lu Neichen took office, Pan Neichen no longer dares to take bribes, and the ranks of the two female deacons are far inferior to those of the chamberlains, let alone covering up. Now that Zhi is here, come with me to see Ling Shang Palace. I also asked Shen Nv Zhi today, and she does not know the personnel of Yaohua Palace as well as Nv Zhi."

Yingshu did decide to leave the follow-up matters of the pardon to He Nuzhi.

In terms of talent, she is of course more optimistic about Shen Nvzhi, but the follow-up matters of pardon do not require great talent. Besides, abandoning Shen and using He can also avoid alarming Lu An. He Nvzhi's self-recommendation was out of concealment. Since Shi was no longer in the palace's purpose, she did not dare to make any mistakes in handling the pardon. As long as she was serious and responsible and ensured that the many palace maids who asked for pardon could be properly arranged, it would be in line with Ying Shu's plan.

He Nuzhi is indeed not so anxious.

She even showed full enthusiasm and took the initiative to tell Ling Shang Palace which palace maids should be unwilling to ask for mercy: "These two are already over thirty, and their parents have died when they entered the palace. They were cared for by their uncles, and one was raised by their uncles. They were treated somewhat harshly at home. Instead, they could only ensure food and clothing after entering the palace. But they just didn't want to go home, and they didn't know whether they would be stable if they asked for a marriage. After all, they were older. , I still don’t know if I can have children. If I have no children after getting married, I am afraid that I will be rejected again and will not even have a place to live.
