I write novels in the East Palace

"More than [-]% of the disaster relief supplies from Corruption, at first they were just shoddy goods, and half of the next [-] cars can be airlifted, and there are ground shops in Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou and other places to buy and sell at high prices, and the profit is more than a hundred Ten thousand taels!"

As Zhou Chengyi said, he smashed the memorial directly, and it fell directly in front of the kneeling household minister, and sneered, "All the things flowed out of your household department, and all the money went into the private pockets of your household officials. This is clearly your housekeeper's burglary, but Lu Shangshu actually said he didn't know?!"

"You have been an official for not only twenty or thirty years, but also seventeen or eighteen years. You are the head of the household department, but you don't know what the people below are doing, heh! I don't know that there are all stupid people in the court of the Great Xiao. High position!"

Zhou Chengyi's tone was sarcasm, his imposing manner was sharp and unstoppable, and it was a deterrent, like a sword drawn out of its sheath, making people dare not look at it directly.

All the ministers suddenly thought that the Holy Majesty was here in person.

Lu Shangshu didn't expect the amount to be so high. Annoyed that he didn't do it seriously, he cursed fiercely in his heart, but said respectfully, "The old minister will check it out immediately, and I will definitely give His Highness an explanation."

Zhou Chengyi didn't give him this chance at all, and pointed his finger at him, "Are you going to find out, or do you want to take the opportunity to cover up the crime and destroy the evidence?"

"The old minister was wronged, Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Lu Shangshu cried out in tears.

"Your good son-in-law is named Tian."

The sudden words from above called Lu Shangshu like five thunderbolts.

There was a noise behind him, he turned his head, and saw Zhong Liyue, who had been missing for a long time, holding a black iron halberd in one hand, and a man with a heavy face who visually estimated to be at least 140 Jin walked in with his other hand effortlessly.

With every step the black boots took, the ferocious aura of the bloody battlefield rushed to his face.

Zhou Chengyi will find out these things, first of all he has to start with Fu Qian.

Fu Qian is the biggest businessman in Chang'an City, with countless industries in Beijing, almost all of them are not making money.

Knowing that there are also Yizhuang under his name, they are all close people. He also set up the elementary school and women's school under the name of the fourth son. He only said that the fourth son's manuscript fee was not paid. In fact, the manuscript fee was the most It can only be supported for half a year, and he will use half of the profit of Yunmeng Theater to fill in the subsequent operating expenses.

It is precisely because he kept a low profile in his good deeds and only left the impression that he loved money as much as his life, that he attracted countless suspicions and abuse.

But Fu Qian himself is not ashamed but proud. He folded his fan and looked like a young man like jade, but he was full of money when he opened and closed his mouth. It’s for peace of mind, to pay tribute for good deeds, and to hope that the God of Wealth will bless you to make more money in the future. This is just a business, not something to brag about.”

In fact, the story of the newspaper boy proves that he does have the ability to turn these efforts into returns.

In short, it was like this, everyone only thought that Fu Qian was a profiteer, so the person who took the largest batch of supplies and planned to sell them as soon as possible approached him.

"Oh, really? Your goods are really clean?" Fu Qian pretended to be very interested, and quietly spread a lot of news, "I see, but there are a lot of goods. I need some assets. Of course, if you If you are willing to reduce the price by [-]%, I will take it all."

"Business comes and goes, young master should not be too greedy." The man warned Fu Qian with a very experienced look.

Fu Qian paused for a moment, his eyes narrowed into a smile, and he said yes, he turned his head and sent the person out, then laughed, "Long nights and dreams", and passed the booklet into the palace non-stop.

Zhou Chengyi read that the person who approached him had taken the private seal of a certain official of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he immediately understood that he had caught a trick, so he asked the Minister of the Ministry of Officials who was in charge of all official files to ask.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials really has some impressions, "This minister knows that he used to be a student of Grand Master Shen. He was not so talented. He was not an official with the name of the top three. When he was poor, he relied on his fellow family to help him. Later, he became Lu Shangshu for some reason. The door-to-door son-in-law finally got a registration officer from the household department, and now he is a doctor from the fifth-rank household department."

Zhou Chengyi couldn't help but twitched his brows when he heard that this person was still involved with Grand Master Shen and Hubu Shangshu, and immediately got up to look for Zhong Liyue.

Zhong Liyue has been very angry recently because of this matter, and was worried that he could not find the culprit, so he invited him to arrest him without hesitation, and this happened now.

Zhong Liyue threw the man in front of Lu Shangshu. The man had been pretending to be dead, but the back of his head hit the ground and he couldn't help but groan. In a flash of light, the halberd missed his throat by half an inch.

"Father-in-law, save me!" Tian Langzhong didn't dare to move, and was so intimidated by Zhong Liyue's ferocious aura that he lost his sense of proportion, and almost instinctively shouted.

Lu Shangshu muttered and wanted to say something.

Then Zhou Chengyi said, "I asked my uncle to catch this man in the warehouse of your house. Lu Shangshu might as well guess, what was he doing at that time?"

Lu Shangshu was silent for a while, then kowtowed dejectedly, "The old minister has no way to teach his son, please punish him, Your Highness."

Zhou Chengyi saw that he was planning to abandon the car to protect the handsome man, so he sneered, and directly clicked on the Minister of Criminal Affairs, "According to the laws of the Xiao Kingdom, this person should be dealt with like this?"

Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment stepped forward and said, "The family should be ransacked and beheaded, so as to serve as an example to others."

"Father-in-law, save me!" The man couldn't help howling when he heard that he was going to die. Zhongli became more and more bored, the halberd was directly pressed against his neck, and the unpleasant sound stopped abruptly. He grinned and showed his white teeth , "If you yell again, you will die now."

Zhou Chengyi continued to ask seductively, "What if there is a confession?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs knew that the confession of this crime would only lead to death, he paused, and replied very cooperatively: "Frankness is lenient, and capital punishment is exempt."

"Did you hear? What do you want to recruit?" Zhong Liyue raised his hand slightly, forcing the man to look up.

The man glanced at Lu Shangshu who was winking at him, gritted his teeth and remained silent.

"Beheading is not interesting, it's too easy. Do you know Ling Chi?"

Zhong Liyue turned the halberd with his hand, and the icy sharp blade slid across the man's neck inch by inch, and said the creepy words in a brisk and slow tone, "It's a total of 360 knives, and I will cut off your flesh piece by piece—you What kind of meat do you like when you usually eat? The people in the Interrogation Department of the Chain Armor Army under me are all veterans, and they can cut it out for you as thin as a cicada's wing. You must want to live longer, look at the twelfth day How is it? Are you happy to let you live for twelve more days?"

A chilling and gloomy cold wind rose out of thin air, and the officials who were close took two steps back in horror, and the man's body couldn't stop shaking under the sharp knife.

Zhong Liyue continued, "Perhaps you prefer posting and adding officials? Or pumping intestines? But pumping intestines can only be used last, and it is easy to die..."

He lightly described several kinds of torture, and described them vividly. At the end, he sighed, "It's a pity that such a beautiful lute bone is not used to wear iron chains."

Zhou Chengyi actually felt his scalp tingle, but he didn't show it on his face. After his uncle finished speaking, the sentence "come" became the last straw that overwhelmed the man.

"I... trick!" The man said tremblingly, "I'll do it all..."

Hubu Shangshu tightly closed his eyes.

Zhou Chengyi originally thought that it was only a matter of the Ministry of Household Affairs at this time, and at most one Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs would be dragged down, but he never thought that none of the six departments would be spared, and all of them would be involved!

Although it's not as riddled with ups and downs as the Ministry of Households, it's still full of filth and moths!

Zhou Chengyi was so angry that he ordered the Habayashi Army to surround the entire Jinluan Palace, "Investigate! Let Gu thoroughly investigate! Gu wants to see how many officials with a clean sleeve are still in the court!"

"Check them out one by one, and let them go if there is no problem. Anyone who finds problems will be sent to prison!"

The first one to be released was Zhong Liyue, who had been fighting at the border all year round, and even if he wanted to be greedy, he had nowhere to play for him; then came Prime Minister Fang, who had copied it 12 years ago and returned home without a wife or son. They couldn't recognize each other, they kept their vows to be pure ministers; after that, Jiang Shilang, who had been back to Beijing for less than a year, couldn't find out even if there was a problem; Pei Ming's time was too short...

After such a thorough investigation, none of the court officials were clean, Pei Sheng was also implicated by his subordinates, Grand Master Shen was completely ruined.

One is that he has many disciples, and his filial piety has always been in an endless stream; the other is that he has been an official since the time of the first emperor. With such a long service life, how can he be a third official without any means.

This time, there were only two or three sporadic people in the Tingzheng Hall.

Zhou Chengyi laughed angrily while holding a thick pile of things he found out, "It's just the court officials who can be said to have wiped out the entire army. If all the officials thoroughly investigate, how many people will be left in the court? Such a corrupt court , and said it is for the country and the people!"

So he ordered the house to be ransacked.

Everyone originally thought that His Highness the Crown Prince was only trying to intimidate him out of anger, but they never expected that it would actually come true.

Prime Minister Fang immediately stepped forward to persuade, "Your Highness, if you can't bear it, you will make a big conspiracy. Such an extraordinary opportunity, it's just the time to employ people, no!"

"There are so many literati in the world, what is missing is from the Taiyuan Academy." Zhou Chengyi said.

"Switching guns before battle is a big taboo!" Prime Minister Fang clasped his hands in a hurry and said earnestly, "The outbreak of the epidemic at the border, the barbarians are staring at it, and the common people are constantly fighting. There are internal and external troubles, and it is safe to do such an overturning event! Your Highness, don't wait first. It's not too late to punish them after this incident, and give them a chance to pay off their merits!"

"What kind of merit will be done, what crime will be broken?"

Zhou Chengyi leaned forward suddenly, his tone was not fierce, but he retorted, "Officials, who uphold power and establish the world, and the people support them, should run for the people and make a living for the people, but they enjoy the taxes of the people, but they don't care for them." The common people seek well-being, they only know how to fight dogs, officials and officials protect each other!"

"Eating the king's salary and being loyal to the king is a matter of duty for the country and the people. Why is it that corruption has become common now, but integrity has become a good name?"

Zhou Chengyi sneered, "Tell them to pay for their merits, I'm afraid it's the common people who will 'do their best and die'!"

The first question was loud and clear, Fang Cheng and others could only purse their lips.

For a long time, all the people knelt down with their robes lifted in silence, and they could only kowtow, "Your Highness's words are very true, but the accumulated illnesses in the court will not be cured in a day. Such extreme actions will definitely shake the foundation of the country. Yang Guang's order, it's really impossible!"

This means that a government order like Zhou Chengyi's is to subjugate the country.

"Your Highness, please take it back!" All the officials kowtowed.

Zhou Chengyi looked at the few people below, and said for a while, "If the foundation of the country is corruption, leaving it to such a country and dynasty that harms the people, I would rather bear the name of subjugation."

After finishing speaking, he walked away amidst the uproar, Prime Minister Fang looked at the Prince's resolute back, and heaved a long sigh.

Zhou Chengyi was not at all surprised when he saw the emperor in the East Palace. Not to mention such a big commotion these days, the palace is full of turmoil.

Not to mention, the emperor asked him to supervise the country, but he did not remove Wang He, the chief executive.

Zhou Chengyi even felt that the emperor came too late.

"Come here, have you had your meal?" The emperor didn't ask him about the court affairs at the beginning when he called him over, and his tone was quite flat and gentle, as if he was chatting about family matters.

He was flipping through a book in his hand, when Zhou Chengyi approached and took a look, it was his "Poor Scholar Farming".

This familiar scene immediately reminded Zhou Chengyi of the first time he went to Qianyuan Palace, the emperor was reading "Fox Dream" with him, but this time the emperor didn't know that the fourth son was also his vest.

Thinking about it, Zhou Chengyi couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips, and asked impatiently, "Does it look good?"

The emperor asked casually: "You wrote it yourself, do you know if it looks good or not?"

Zhou Chengyi's smile froze, and after a while he asked in a low voice, "How do you know?"

Only then did the emperor look up at him, and said in a calm tone, "Oh, I don't know, I lied to you."

"But I know now." He bowed his head and turned a page.

Zhou Chengyi: "..."

The author has something to say: there is one more chapter, after the meal, the size depends on the speed of the hand.

Zhou Chengyi: You are playing tricks!

Emperor: This is tactics.
