Chapter 551 I hope history books will write her more beautifully
"The county lord should be gentle when he takes action. The Jiangzuo Minister and his men are also wholeheartedly concerned about the south..."
Halfway through his speech, the Minister of Revenue suddenly felt that something was wrong.
search?
Who to search?
Jiang An still smiled, "Searching all the adults~"
Minister of Revenue:!
Officials from the Ministry of Revenue: ! !
Although it was the same human language, the Minister of Revenue seemed to have lost his mind at this moment. He could understand every word, but he couldn't understand when they were put together.
Just as the people from the Ministry of Household were petrified, Jiang Ling and others were trying to hold back their laughter until their stomachs ached.
It has to be the county lord!
Cui Huaixu and Jiang Ling were good talkers to begin with, and now they turned into ruthless mocking machines.
"The Minister of Revenue has been working for the country and the people, so his family must be poor!"
Bullshit, everyone knows that the Minister of Revenue has a house full of rare treasures and toys... a dazzling array!
"It's probably just a few pieces of silver."
In fact, there was a secret room in his house, and even the bed was made of gold bricks. The Minister of Revenue would go to the secret room to lie down for a while when he had nothing to do.
There's nothing he can do about it, he just likes that taste!
"Is it possible that the Shangshu can't even support his family? Tsk tsk..."
He had eighteen concubines...
There is only one queen and four concubines in the current emperor's palace.
The more he spoke, the paler the Minister's face became.
Not to mention the people hiding behind him, the sky is falling!!
"you…"
"As an official appointed by the imperial court, you have trespassed into our house without permission. You mobilized troops without the order of His Majesty, the Minister of Justice, or the Supreme Court!"
"According to the laws of the Southern Merchants, you should be beheaded in court for doing this!"
Want to kill her?
The smile on Jiang An's lips fell, and a sharp light appeared in his eyes.
"I'm afraid you forgot that you have just given me full authority to handle this matter."
"Now I can be considered as a legitimate disciple~"
As for the Shangshu and Siqingling...
The little girl stretched out her hand, palm facing up, "My two lords, can you lend it to me?"
Lord Li looked haggard, and it was obvious that the death of his brother had dealt him a great blow.
He quickly took the token from his waist and handed it to Jiang An. As for His Majesty's expression...
He didn't even look up.
The Dali Temple Minister did look up, but that was all he did.
His Majesty, who was sitting on the dragon throne, had a gloomy face and was even reflecting.
Is he sitting too far away?
Should we move the dragon throne closer to the officials? Why do they seem to be unable to see us?
He is such a big emperor, doesn't anyone care about him?
The two tokens were placed together, and made a crisp sound when they collided.
In the ears of the Minister of Revenue, this voice sounded like the King of Hell urging him to die, and to die with his family!
He stood there dejectedly, feeling powerless.
The house was robbed while I was away...
And now he can't even resist.
What can we do?
I can't beat him...
Don’t even expect the servants in the mansion to be able to resist the people from the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple.
Judging from the way the Ministry of Justice was confiscating property, they should be digging deep into his house by now!
It's over, let's mess it up~
Thinking of this, his eyes rolled back and he fainted!
Oh mo!
Jiang An clicked his tongue twice, not sure whether he was feeling pity for him or mocking him.
When the Minister of Revenue heard these two sounds while he was semi-conscious, he almost died of anger.
Seeing that he had fainted, the officials behind him, both big and small, wanted to faint as well, and for a moment, the whole court was in chaos!
Among the people lying in a mess, someone weakly raised his hand and said, "That..."
"If I report it now, can I get a lighter sentence?"
You can exile him, but don’t chop off his head... and don’t punish his entire clan!
The little girl's eyes lit up and she smiled widely, "Of course!"
One hand up... Two hands up... Three...
They were all insignificant minor officials, and most of the money they embezzled was taken away by their superiors.
It can even be said that some people engage in corruption and bribery out of helplessness.
The leader is not upright. If they were too upright, they probably wouldn't be alive today!
Jiang An grinned foolishly and took out a pen and paper from his sleeve like a magician. It was obvious that he had prepared for such a scene a long time ago.
"Old Li!"
She slapped Lord Li on the back, "Here comes the work!"
"Ah?" The melancholy old man was stuffed with paper and pen, and he didn't react for a moment. He also forgot that he was in the hall, and really did what the little girl said and worked~
After about an incense stick's time, the Minister of Revenue woke up slowly.
His face was dark blue, and he looked like a dying man.
Before he could stand up again, the officials who went to search his house... no, the officials who went to search arrived at the throne room.
The minor official was covered in mud, and behind him were two eunuchs carrying a large box.
Your Majesty is still wondering at this time, how can the stolen goods be carried directly to the hall?
Such a small amount is not enough to sentence someone to death...
When Jiang An came forward to open the box, there was a box of account books!
It contains densely packed records of what was seized from the homes of officials at the Ministry of Revenue.
The people from the Ministry of Justice did not touch the dowries of female relatives and the land and shops listed in the accounts. All the records were the proceeds of their corruption.
The minor official was holding a long account book and counting the money in front of His Majesty and all the other officials. Jiang An approached the Minister of Revenue who was lying on the ground with a shy look.
"How is it~"
"My people are very capable, they will never wrong you!"
Of course, he was most familiar with Shangshu's own wealth, and he fainted again with his eyes rolled back.
"Shangshu!"
You fainted, what should we do?
Jiang An waved his paws, "Calm down, he's fainted, he's not dead, why are you howling~"
The final outcome of this morning court session was that Jiang An, who had just returned to Beijing on the first day, sent all the people from the Ministry of Revenue to the Ministry of Justice’s prison.
After the morning court session ended, Song Shen went to Chenglong Hall and took out a memorial from his sleeve like a magic trick.
This was the candidate for the Ministry of Revenue official that he had already selected as the Minister of Personnel.
The emperor looked at the memorial on the table and suddenly felt tired.
This emperor, he really has had enough of being one!
He is just a spectator, he doesn't have to take care of anything, he is just a ruthless nodding machine!
"Since you have made up your mind, why are you asking me?"
This throne is for you to sit on!
Song Shen looked at his nose and his heart, and glanced at the jade seal next to His Majesty's hand.
The meaning is very clear, he just needs a stamp.
His Majesty narrowed his eyes and really wanted to use the Imperial Seal to smash him into pieces here and there!
After the imperial seal was sealed, the emperor began to chase people away, "Get out, get out!"
Song Shen raised his professional fake smile, "I'll take my leave..."
Outside the palace gate, Jiang An directly handed the task of confiscating the property to the distracted Old Li.
"Old Li..."
The little girl patted Lord Li on the shoulder, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.
"County Lady, there is no need to comfort me. There is nothing to say." Lord Li smiled bleakly.
This was his brother's own choice.
His brother is better than him in sacrificing his life for the country.
So, Jiang An didn't say anything else...
But she still joked with him with a playful smile, "Maybe one day, we will meet in history books~"
I hope that future generations can write about her in a more beautiful way.
otherwise…
Even if I become a ghost, I won’t let him go!
Lord Li was amused by the little girl's words and felt a little relieved.
