Martial arts immortality, I will eventually be invincible

It snowed several times in a row, and there were only a few days left before the Chinese New Year.

Taking advantage of the money in the account, Chen Guanlou called everyone to a meeting and held a summary mobilization meeting. After that, they had a big feast, which was considered to be a perfect end to the third year of Jianshi.

At this time, the Ministry of Justice was impeached by the Censorate.

It was clear that no one in the Ministry of Justice would have a peaceful New Year.

Chen Guanlou came to the Ministry of Justice with a box of cakes, and he was still waiting for the Ministry of Justice to approve him. The money and grain have been owed for nearly a year, and if they are not approved, they will have to wait until the New Year again.

Year after year, it will become a bad debt over time, and the thieves in the Ministry of Justice can make a fortune again.

This is absolutely not allowed.

The Tianlao has a way to make money, but it does not mean that the Tianlao can be bullied by others and withhold the grain and grass that should belong to the Tianlao.

After the notification, I successfully met Sun Daoning.

Hey!

There are a few more white beards.

Could it be that he was angry with the grandsons of the Censorate?

"Old Sun, why did you provoke the people from the Censorate again? They are the best at verbal fights, and you can't beat them."

Sun Daoning was unhappy when he heard it, "What do you mean I provoke the people from the Censorate? It's obviously the Censorate that provokes me. It's the end of the year, and everyone checked and it seems that they haven't completed the task, so they took our Ministry of Justice as a target, which is really too much. You tell me, among the six ministries, the weakest is obviously the Ministry of Works, why is it our Ministry of Justice that is bullied every time? This is unreasonable! Logically speaking, the accounts of the Ministry of Works are accurate once they are checked, why don't they catch the Ministry of Works and impeach it?"

"Normally speaking, the Ministry of Works is indeed the weakest among the six ministries. But the Ministry of Works has money! Besides, the prince of our family's marquis's mansion works in the Ministry of Works. With such a big Buddha sitting in front of you, if you were a member of the Censorate, you would have to pick on the weak persimmons."

Sun Daoning was furious.

"According to you, I am a pushover?"

That expression clearly said: I'll give you another chance, speak nicely.

Chen Guanlou picked up the oranges in the bamboo basket and ate them. "This tastes good. Who sent it? I'll get a few hundred kilograms too."

"It was presented by the people below. You can ask who sent it. You haven't answered me yet. Am I the only soft persimmon among the six ministries?"

"Of course not. But you are the only official in the six ministries who is not involved with nobles and royal relatives. Think about it. If you impeach the Ministry of Works, Chen Guanfu will definitely be dragged out and taken turns. If he is impeached, Pingjiang Hou will be mentioned along with him. In the current situation, is Pingjiang Hou someone who can be easily mentioned and impeached? He is a direct person related to military and national affairs. Any impeachment will provoke a court dispute. The north and the south are fighting, who dares to take the responsibility of provoking a court dispute? Yu Zhaoan, Xie Changling, or the Minister of the Sea?"

Chen Guanlou almost broke Sun Daoning apart: Other government offices have backers, but you don't. If I don't impeach you, who will I impeach?

The truth is too hard to hear, so I can only find another strange way to say it.

The officials of the Ministry of Justice also need to save face.

As the head of a subordinate unit of the Ministry of Justice, Chen Guanlou still knows the rules very well.

Sun Daoning was furious. After all, the Ministry of Justice is a soft persimmon that can be easily manipulated.

"Every government office has a lot of problems. Take the Ministry of Revenue next door for example. If the Censorate had the courage to investigate, it would be sure to find out the truth. But they ended up impeaching the Ministry of Justice. I have been nervous every time I went to court these days, fearing that His Majesty would ask questions. You said it's the end of the year, is it worth it to target me like this?"

Sun Daoning was so angry that his beard turned white again.

As Chen Guanlou said, he was no match for the grandsons of the Censorate in a verbal battle. They could just send an imperial censor to criticize him. He was a scholar, and he could keep up with the rhythm of the other party's criticism and knew the meaning of the classics in the words. But he didn't have the talent for debate! He has never been good at this since he was a child.

If he talks about the law, he is not afraid of anyone.

But he is really not good at quarreling in the court.

He stared at Chen Guanlou, his eyes shining.

Chen Guanlou felt the danger and hurriedly stepped back to avoid being implicated, "Old Sun, don't try to hit me. I am a good citizen, a great good citizen, I don't do anything to commit crimes. I usually don't do things like revenge for personal gain."

"What are you doing in the Ministry of Justice today?"

"Here, approve the note. This year's account should be settled this year, don't delay it to next year. There will be new accounts next year."

"No money!"

"Zheng Daochong is dead, if you say you have no money again, I will turn my face!"

"I really have no money." Sun Daoning counted on his fingers to settle accounts with him.

Chen Guanlou just wanted to cover his ears, like the heroine in the TV series: I don't want to listen, I don't want to listen!

He only wants money.

"Approve the money and grain quickly, don't make excuses. The government office is about to be closed. If you don't approve it now, it will become a bad debt next year. Your Ministry of Justice can make a fortune again."

"Nonsense." Sun Daoning scolded, "The Ministry of Justice is honest and upright from top to bottom, where can there be a windfall. Don't talk nonsense and ruin the reputation of the government office."

"Old Sun, be a kind person, you will need me in the future."

Sun Daoning snorted coldly, "At most I can approve a grain and grass note for you, but I don't have the money."

"Then double the approval, can I resell grain to make up for the deficit?"

"At the moment when the Censorate impeached, Tianlao resold grain. You are afraid that the Censorate can't find loopholes in the Ministry of Justice, so you deliberately make trouble for me, right?" Sun Daoning was furious, no one was relieved, all were making trouble.

"If I don't resell grain, how can I pay the salaries and bonuses to the jailers below. Otherwise, change the proportion of the share, and the Ministry of Justice will take less."

"Impossible!" Sun Daoning rejected it with one word. Don't even think about changing the already determined commission rate. The Ministry of Justice is still counting on the income from the Tianlao to pay a New Year's gift.

But it's not good to push people too far. Look, the kid surnamed Chen's eyes are red. He's about to get angry!

Sun Daoning decisively changed his words and said in a gentle tone: "Let's do this. You can approve an extra batch of grain and grass, just as a write-off of the past debt. Reselling is absolutely not allowed. You have to remember this. In addition, Nanshan Hou is afraid that he will not be well. His Majesty will deal with Nanshan Hou next. When the time comes, you will give me a good trial and a good beating. If you find out the hidden money, this official will record your first merit."

"Nanshan Hou is very low-key! What did he do wrong? Why does His Majesty want to deal with him?" Chen Guanlou was very curious.

Nanshan Hou has almost no presence among the nobles.

The only time he heard someone mention it was when the Marquisate was looking for marriage partners for the girls. It seemed that they didn't like the boys of Nanshan Marquisate, and they thought that none of the boys of Nanshan Marquisate had any future, and they were all spineless.

"Your Majesty doesn't need a reason to punish anyone he doesn't like." Sun Daoning blocked Chen Guanlou's question with one sentence.

Chen Guanlou chuckled twice, "Does Nanshan Marquis have a lot of money? Does his ancestor have connections with the King of Chu or the King of Cheng?"
