Forced To Start The Game, Summon A Hundred Thousand Snow Dragon Riders

Chapter 5 Your Majesty, Did You Say One More Word?

"Retire!"

Under the trembling eyes of the ministers, Xiao Linzi announced the end of the court meeting in a drake-like voice.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

After paying homage, all the officials left the Great Hall one after another from both sides of the Royal Road.

Walking out of the Golden Luan Hall, the officials immediately put on a bitter face.

"Why are you so sad, don't you just donate some money to the treasury?"

Grand Master Sima Yi shook his head, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

"Teacher, look at what you said, is that a donation?"

Dali Siqing looked helpless, "That's our entire family property!"

"It's been a waste of time for so many years!"

The surrounding officials all expressed the same feeling.

"All of you, you are usually as smart as monkeys, why are you as stupid as pigs today, could it be that you were scared stupid by your majesty?"

Sima Yi looked at everyone meaningfully with an unteachable expression on his face, "How much property do you have, who would know except you?"

yes!

After Sima Yi mentioned this, the eyes of the officials immediately lit up.

Their family property, apart from the good land and beautiful houses on the surface, there are many more in private, which are intricate and complicated, and even they themselves don't know it well. They need to go back and look at their own account books to know.

Even they themselves don't know how much assets they have, how would His Majesty know?

Even if His Majesty asks the Ministry of Punishment to investigate, it will not be found out at all.

A scheming smile appeared on Sima Yi's face, "Your Majesty is still too young, so how much to donate is up to us?"

"The grand master's words are very transparent!"

A group of courtiers who were still frowning just now were all smiling, and gave Sima Yi a thumbs up, "Ginger is still old and spicy!"

In this way, this little loss is nothing but a drop in the bucket for them!

"Grand Master Sima, thank you for your reminder. Tonight, I will be the host. Please tell me about Zuixianlou! I don't know if Grand Master can show you face?"

"Easy to say! Easy to say!"

Sima Yi smiled all over his face.

Outside the Golden Luan Hall, the air was suddenly filled with joy.

...

Inside the Golden Temple.

Li Xiu sneered.

This group of old and cunning guys agreed to donate all their property so readily, one could guess with their butts that there must be ghosts involved.

This group of guys must be planning to donate some apparent property casually and get away with it. How could Li Xiu not know that these officials still have a lot of hidden property, and they will definitely not hand it over obediently.

Thinking of this, Li Xiu's eyes fell on a Daoist figure beside him, "Cao Zhengchun."

"The old slave is here."

Cao Zhengchun bowed immediately.

"I plan to integrate all the intelligence agencies of the imperial court and form the East Factory, which will be responsible for the picketing of all officials and monitor the world!"

"As small as the hundreds of officials in the court, as large as the people of the world, the Rivers and Lakes Martial Forest are all within your surveillance range!"

"You, Cao Zhengchun, are the first governor of Dongchang!"

Li Xiu looked at Cao Zhengchun.

Establish Dongchang and monitor the world!

For some reason, Cao Zhengchun seemed to have awakened the memory imprinted in his blood at this moment, as if the position of Governor of the East Factory was tailor-made for him!

"Old slave, I will do my best not to disappoint His Majesty!"

Cao Zhengchun said emotionally.

"I'll leave it to you to handle the donation of property by the officials this time."

In Li Xiu's eyes, there was a trace of brilliance, "I can't look down on the little thing they offered on their own initiative, I want all their property!"

"Within three days, I want to get a satisfactory result, Cao Aiqing, can you do it?"

When Xiao Linzi heard this, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed for Cao Zhengchun. The group of ministers secretly hid a lot of private property, let alone three days, even if it took thirty days, it would be impossible to find out!

However, Cao Zhengchun remained expressionless, "If you can't complete the task assigned by His Majesty within three days, the miscellaneous family will come to see you."

"Go!"

Li Xiu nodded, very satisfied with Cao Zhengchun's reply.

Looking at the back of Cao Zhengchun leaving, the corner of Li Xiu's mouth suddenly curled up.

Ladies and gentlemen, as promised to contribute to the country, this loyalty cannot be discounted...

He could already foresee that Cao Zhengchun's departure would definitely cause huge waves in the entire capital.

As for him, he just needs to wait for good news from Cao Zhengchun with peace of mind.

...

Royal study.

Li Xiu's desk is full of various letter files.

These files were all sent by Cao Zhengchun.

On each file, the name of an official is written.

In that dossier, all the property of the official was recorded.

These officials, without exception, do not have much property on the surface, but secretly have a frightening amount of private property, which can be said to be very rich.

For example, in the dossier in Li Xiu's hand, this official named Wang Zhi has a clean face and a simple style, and his family property is less than one hundred taels of silver.

However, the private property transferred by this person to someone else was as much as five hundred thousand taels of silver!

And this Wang Zhi is just a small grasshopper among them. People like Wang Zhi can be found everywhere in the court!

"All the corrupt officials who don't want to serve the country and amassed money without limit, they pretend to be like that on weekdays!"

Li Xiu had a sneer on his face.

Among them, there are many courtiers who Li Xiu thinks are more honest and honest, but in fact, these people are not ambiguous at all when they scoop up money!

Among them, the Taishi Sima Yi is the worst!

There are as many as ten million taels of private property!

"Well, you old thief Sima, your private property is more than my treasury!"

Li Xiu's eyes were indifferent, "Cao Zhengchun, you have collected all the evidence, tomorrow morning, I will wipe out these moths that harm the country and the people!"

"Yes!"

Cao Zhengchun's eyes sharpened, and then he turned and exited the Great Hall.

the next day.

On the court.

All civil and military officials entered the court.

This morning, it was time for them to fulfill their promise, to give all their wealth.

All the family properties donated by the ministers are counted by the Minister of the Household Department.

"Censor Zhongcheng Lu Yuan, the entire family property is equivalent to 4080 taels of silver!"

"Liu Tong, Minister of Dali Temple, the entire family property is equivalent to three thousand five hundred taels of silver!"

"Secretary Lang Wang Zhi, the entire family property is equivalent to one hundred taels of silver!"

"..."

The Hubu Shangshu read out the amount of property donated by the ministers one by one, and it sounds very reliable.

If it were the former Li Xiu, I'm afraid he would nod his head, these courtiers are all very clean.

However, when Li Xiu heard this, he just wanted to laugh.

Especially the secretary Lang Wangzhi, who was so ashamed to only donate the one hundred taels of silver, he really regarded the emperor as a fool!

"Grand Master Sima Yi, the entire family property, equivalent to..."

"Don't read it."

At this moment, Li Xiu interrupted the Minister of the Household Department, "I know this, after all, Taishi Sima is the richest man in the court, and his entire family wealth is 28 million taels in total. He is as rich as an enemy!"

Sima Yi was terrified when he heard the words, "Your Majesty, did you say an extra ten thousand?"
