Chapter 182: King Heng's Greed for Ink (13/10)


The emperor was reviewing the recital in the imperial study, but someone suddenly came from outside to preach, "Your Majesty, Lord Jiang asks to see you." ”The emperor raised his head slightly, "Jiang Yu?

Please come in. ”Looking at the man in front of him wearing a navy blue python pattern official uniform, the emperor's face softened slightly, and he asked, "I don't know why Jiang Aiqing came?"

”"The case investigated by the minister recently involves a wide range of cases, and he does not dare to make decisions on his own, so he came to ask His Majesty what he means."

Jiang Yu had a respectful attitude and said calmly."

What's involved?

What case?

”The emperor put down the pen in his hand and looked up at him."

It's about His Royal Highness King Heng."

Jiang Yu said lightly.As soon as the emperor heard the words King Heng, a layer of jealousy immediately appeared between his eyebrows, his expression was a little solemn, and he looked up at him, waiting for him to continue to speak."

When the minister investigated the bribery case of an official before, Shun Teng found out that this official also had dealings with His Royal Highness King Heng in private, but because there was no evidence, he was not held accountable.Recently, His Royal Highness King Heng and his ministers appreciated a treasure together, saying that they wanted to present it to His Majesty.After reading it, the minister felt that it was inappropriate, so he came to show His Majesty first. ”"What's wrong?

Let's hear it. ”The Emperor asked, frowning."

This treasure is a piece of amethy crystal, a specialty of Kanzhou, which can produce very little every year, even if it is a small piece of tribute to the treasury every year, it is not enough to measure.And this piece in the hands of His Royal Highness King Heng is full of one-tenth of it, which shows its weight and rarity. ”The emperor's face became a little heavy.He understood what Jiang Yu meant.In the barren land of Junzhou, the contribution to the treasury is not enough to measure, but the bribe of King Heng is used to use one-tenth of Jun, in the end, do you put the law of the country in your eyes!"

The minister first knew about this, but he didn't understand the reason.Later, I learned that Kanzhou was originally at the border, and because of its climate, disasters occurred every year, resulting in barren land.It turned out that His Royal Highness King Heng received the holy order to lead the treasury and silver at the border for disaster relief, perhaps it was a great gift from his people.It's just that the prefect of Kanzhou actually thanked His Royal Highness King Heng for coming here, and the minister was quite curious about this matter, so he investigated it privately. ”The emperor raised his eyes, and the cold in his eyes suddenly passed, and he slowly turned the Buddha beads on his wrist, and said in a cold voice, "What did the investigation find?"

”The truth found out was also shocked.Some people under the Kanzhou prefect claimed that most of the disaster relief silver taels of His Royal Highness King Heng would be withheld in his hands every year, and if the amethy crystal stones paid by the Kanzhou prefect were satisfactory to him, they would be distributed one by one. ”"Rao is like this, and he will always keep a part in his own hands, so it has led to Kanzhou being barren for many years, and the famine has not healed for many years, until now it has become a poor place in the area, and the people are not able to make a living."

The emperor slammed the Buddha beads on the table, his eyes revealed layers of anger, green tendons burst out on his forehead, he gritted his teeth and shouted: "He is so presumptuous!

”"Your Majesty is angry, now His Royal Highness King Heng is powerful in Beijing, if you want to be convicted, you still have to hold the evidence."

When the emperor heard Jiang Yu's words, the anger in his eyebrows calmed down a little, and he remembered the rumors in Beijing recently, and his heart was even more jealous."

How are you doing?""

The minister thinks that His Royal Highness King Heng has been greedy for disaster relief silver for so many years, and the account in this mansion is naturally a black account, as long as His Majesty orders a thorough investigation of the transactions between King Heng's Mansion and Kanzhou, he will naturally be able to hold the empirical evidence of King Heng's greed for ink."

Jiang Yu said unhurriedly.After being reborn, I became Shousuke's favorite
