It was already evening when Li Xuan and Luo Yan met Xiao Ci, the Minister of Household Affairs.
This is because they were delayed for a while with Yu Jie and Shang Hong of the Ministry of War. The two adults pulled Li Xuan and asked him about the matter before they were willing to let him go.
Yu Jie immediately set up his escape light and rushed directly to the Ministry of Justice to find Yu Shiyue, the minister of the Ministry of Justice. Shang Hong, the left minister of the Ministry of War, went directly to the palace to discuss with his two cabinet colleagues.
At this time, Jin's cabinet status had just risen.
The original cabinet, founded in the Jianling period, was the advisory body of the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty. It had no real power at first and was filled by selected members of the Hanlin Academy.
Until the Renzong and Xuanzong periods, the cabinet status was increasingly respected. Especially during the reign of Xuanzong Sanyang, the power of the cabinet expanded rapidly and initially dominated the six ministries.
But during the Zhengtong period, the powerful eunuch Wang Zhen took charge, and the Zhengtong emperor relied more on Wang Zhen to manage the government, so this rule was abolished again.
It was not until Emperor Jingtai that the status of the cabinet rose again.
The emperor was plagued by old wounds, so he relied more on the cabinet when governing.
In order to strengthen the status of the cabinet, Emperor Jingtai even specially invited six powerful figures such as Shang Hong, the left minister of the Ministry of War, Xiao Ci, the minister of the Ministry of household affairs, and Wang Wen, the minister of the Ministry of official affairs, into the cabinet.
He even wanted to include Shaobao Yujie in the cabinet, but the officials of the Manchu Dynasty blocked it.
Now, it is Chen Xun and Gao Gu who are really leading the affairs of the cabinet. The rest of them usually directly manage the affairs of the ministry from outside.
It was these two cabinet colleagues that Shang Hong wanted to persuade.
After the two left, Li Xuan went to the household department next to him.
Fortunately, the household department has been busy recently, and Xiao Ci is still here to handle official duties.
After hearing Li Xuan explain the case, his demeanor and tone were similar to Shang Hong's.
At first, Xiao Ci didn't understand why Li Xuan came to him and told him about such an old injustice case. The Ministry of Revenue had nothing to do with this matter.
He was even a little impatient, but he was concerned about Li Xuan's identity and power, so he forced himself to endure it.
But when he heard that the money involved in the case might reach more than 40 million taels, Xiao Ci stood up from his seat.
"Is this happening?"
Xiao Ci picked up the file handed over by Li Xuan and looked through the pages carefully. When he encountered some places that he couldn't understand, he asked them carefully one by one.
He didn't have many questions about the case, mainly about the salt merchant involved in the case. Where was he from? How much is your family wealth? How much money was stolen.
Finally, Xiao Ci looked furious and slammed the table, smashing one of the corners into pieces.
"A bunch of greedy silverfish, they will never be able to atone for their sins even if they die!"
After finishing speaking, Xiao Ci sighed again: "It's a pity that Yushi Xia, such an upright person, died at the hands of a group of corrupt officials. Champion, I wonder if this Yushi Xia still has any descendants alive?"
Yu Jie had already asked the same question, and Li Xuan did not go to see Luo Yan. He shook his head: "The seventy-five members of Xia Yushi's family were all killed because of colluding with Wang Zhen. The mother and daughter who escaped by chance, They all died soon after.”
Luo Yan's eyes were red, and his eyes were self-inflicted.
It's not that she doesn't want to recognize her ancestor and return to the clan, but she knows that she can't get around her adoptive father, nor can she get around the blacklisted thief 'Purple Butterfly Demon Girl'.
Luo Yan didn't want her former identity as a thief to tarnish her father's posthumous reputation.
She felt so happy stealing and throwing away money in the past, but now she feels so regretful.
Li Xuan disapproved of this and felt that Luo Yan was just out of his mind.
If it were him, he wouldn't care what others think.
However, people in this era are like this. They take reputation very seriously, and Luo Yan is not immune to this.
"So tragic?" Xiao Ci sighed and shook his head: "This is the fault of the imperial court. I will ask your majesty to clear the grievances of the Xia Yushi, clarify his name, and give him a generous gift. It is best to be sent by the Ministry of Rites. Select a loyal and close descendant from the Xia Yushi clan to adopt him as the heir to the Xia Yushi family, and ensure that the Xia Yushi family continues to be popular."
Xiao Ci could no longer sit still, and he clasped his fists towards Li Xuan: "The situation is urgent, I have to go to the palace quickly. I ask the champion Marquis to forgive me for my rudeness, and I will apologize to the Marquis someday." "
After saying this, Xiao Ci's feet seemed to have a pair of hot wheels, and he hurried out of the Hubu Yamen.
Li Xuan didn't intend to stay here. He stood up calmly and said: "Let's go back to the official Yamen. Yan'er, your father's matter is almost settled. If my prediction is right, the emperor will probably call me in tonight." Palace, tell me about this matter."
The official office of the Chinese Army's Advocate is located inside the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, which is diagonally opposite the Ministry of Household Affairs. The two places are very close to each other.
It is also very close to Chengtian Gate, just a few steps away.
But whether it was Li Xuan's misunderstanding, on the way back to the Duan Shi Guan Yamen, he found that Luo Yan's whole body was surprisingly hot, and her whole delicate body seemed to be on fire. Her eyes were watery and psychedelic, and her pretty face was flushed, making her look extremely delicate and charming. It was a kind of breathtaking beauty, dazzling and extremely beautiful.
Li Xuan could hardly move his eyes, peeking in Luo Yan's direction from time to time.
But then, as Li Xuan expected, when they returned to the Duansiguan Yamen, they all knew that the leader of the eunuchs, Wang Chuanhua, was already waiting here.
This person came here on an order to convey to Li Xuan that he should enter the palace urgently.
※※※※
At this time, Prince Xiang's Mansion in the middle of Beijing was already filled with lanterns, making this gorgeous palace look elegant and majestic.
The crown prince of Prince Xiang, Yu Qiyong, looked pale as he hurriedly walked into the middle hall of Prince Xiang's Mansion. Then he saw his father, Prince Xiang, Yu Zhanyi, sitting on the throne, looking at Mingcha with an indifferent expression.
Prince Xiang's eldest son, Yu Qiyong, could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly after seeing Prince Xiang's calm expression. The chaos in his chest immediately calmed down.
He straightened his clothes for a while, then walked to the hall and saluted: "Father! Father, you must have heard about the assassination of Abbot Wei Zhen?"
"I heard about it in the afternoon." King Xiang Yu Zhanyang sighed: "How could I not know that such a big thing happened in the capital? The champion has good tricks, but Wei Zhen's loss was a bit unfair."
The prince of Prince Xiang, Yu Qiyong, smiled bitterly and said: "Shortly after Weizhen's death, people from Liudaosi and Shuntian Mansion went to the scene of the crime, and people from the Criminal Department and Xiuyiwei also came later. It is said that the evidence at the scene was complete. Pointing to the 'mercenary' plum love letter.
You can predict that this person must be hired by Li Xuan. This champion is really ruthless, with so many connections, tens of millions of wealth, a pseudo-celestial level of cultivation, and even two Lord Jialan as his aid. In the end, he died without using it at all. This was such an unfair defeat. "
At this time, he paused again and looked at Prince Xiang with a solemn expression: "Father, once this person dies, Xia Guangwei's case may be a bit troublesome, but this is an opportunity for our family."
Prince Xiang chuckled: "Do you think that if Wei Zhen dies, my family will be able to take over his connections and his salt business?"
"That's what the child thinks." Prince Xiang Yu Qiyong said solemnly: "Weizhen's management in the court these years is no small matter. The Xia Guangwei case also involves more than a dozen court officials and is closely related to them. If they can become the child's help , the child will surely have a great career.
And now this case is an opportunity. As long as I, Prince Xiang’s Mansion, are willing to lend a helping hand to them, I don’t have to worry about them not being devoted to their service——"
Yu Qiyong's words stopped abruptly because he found that King Xiang had already put down the tea cup with a sigh.
King Xiang looked at him with a wry smile: "Then did you know that shortly after the Wei Zhen incident, Li Xuan went to visit Yu Jie and Shang Hong from the Ministry of War, and Xiao Ci from the Ministry of Household Affairs? And now the Emperor is at the Gate of Taihe. , convene the cabinet ministers to discuss?
At the same time, Wei Zhen, the censor of Zuo Qiandu, and Zuo Daoxing, the governor of Xiuyiwei, had already led people to search Wei Zhen's two foreign residences? "
Prince Xiang's eldest son Yu Qiyong couldn't help but frowned. He didn't know these two things clearly. Yu Qiyong didn't want to understand what the mystery was.
"Have you forgotten? Today's imperial court can't even pay out salaries. The battle with Mengwu not only emptied the Treasury's treasury, but His Majesty's inner treasury also lost a penny."
Seeing Yu Qiyong's pupils shrink suddenly, King Xiang shook his head as he obviously had figured it out: "That's why I said that this champion is really a good trick. At this time, no matter who stands in front of the emperor and Yu Shaobao, , they will all be shattered into pieces.”
He then stood up and said in a deep voice: "Come here! Get the king's court clothes quickly."
Prince Xiang's eldest son, Yu Qiyong, immediately came to his senses: "Father, are you going to enter the palace?"
"Otherwise? Although this case has little to do with Prince Xiang's Palace, as a father, I still have to find the emperor to explain the matter as soon as possible."
King Xiang then looked at Yu Qiyong with cold eyes: "Go find Qin Yongren and give him a glass of poisonous wine. A palace slave, UU reading www.uukanshu.net, dares to deceive him for a mere tens of thousands of taels of silver. The master really doesn’t know how to live or die!”
Prince Xiang's Crown Prince Yu Qiyong's eyes changed slightly, but then he bowed without hesitation: "I'll send him off now."
Qin Yongren is the deputy general manager of Prince Xiang's Mansion, an old man who has worked for their family for decades, and has always been respectful to Yu Qiyong.
Yu Qiyong knew that this man had accepted Wei Zhen's bribe in the past, but it was actually with the tacit approval of his father.
At that time, his father's consideration was that, firstly, Prince Xiang's Mansion did not have much to do, they only needed to stand up, and they did not even need to do anything. Secondly, Weizhen's filial piety was extremely sincere, and Prince Xiang's Mansion You can directly get a share of the salt business, earning an annual income of two to three hundred thousand taels of silver.
Then the most important point is the network of contacts managed by Weizhen. This leader of the Zen sect is qualified to be the assistant of Prince Xiang's Mansion in both government and opposition.
Yu Qiyong was extremely reluctant to part with him. He not only felt sorry for the money that Wei Zhen donated to the government, but also deplored the connections that Wei Zhen had managed.
But in this situation, the only choice is to lose the car and save the handsome man.
He knew that under the crushing power of the imperial court, all of this would fall to pieces. To them, everything Verity once had was worthless.
