The royal treasury is different from the treasury.
The national treasury belongs to Qingguo, while the inner treasury belongs to the royal family. Although the gap between the two is not big in this era, Emperor Qing, who is the number one figure in Qingguo, has one vote. The right to decide.
After Ye Qingmei’s accident, the inner treasury in her hands gradually belonged to the royal family and was renamed the royal inner treasury.
At that time, the scale of the inner treasury was very huge, so huge that it was a bit scary, and the leaf cards were all over the world.
So much so that after Emperor Qing, who was still very young at the time, just ascended the throne, Ye Qingmei’s inner treasury was responsible for the renovation of the palace and the establishment of many court offices in Beijing. It can be described as a real landlord and old fortune.
Every brick and tile in the Supervisory Yuan today is actually named Ye.
Only after the inner treasury was transferred to the royal hands, it quickly lost its former magical power.
The eldest princess Li Yunrui, who has been smart and beautiful since she was a child, was considered the best woman in the world in the eyes of the people of Qing Kingdom, but she was not so perfect compared to Ye Qingmei. In her hands, the library gradually became a tool for power and gain.
Until a few years ago, a few casual jokes made by Emperor Qing at a banquet triggered a wave of aftermath in Kyoto.
"Wan'er is my adopted daughter."
"That guy Fan Jian always wanted to be related to me, so I followed his wish. He is from Danzhou. That Fan Fanxian."
"In the future, after that child comes to Beijing and marries Wan'er, I will leave the royal treasury to Wan'er's husband."
That was the first round of assassination that the young Fan Xian suffered in Danzhou.
Later, Chen Pingping entered the palace and persuaded Emperor Qing to put the marriage on hold for the time being.
At the beginning of this year, Fan Jian took advantage of Dean Chen's return to his hometown in the south to worship his ancestors, and sneaked into the palace to talk to Emperor Qing for a long time, and then continued the marriage, so he Fan Xian came to Beijing.
It’s just that none of them may have thought that things would develop to this point step by step.
The sudden rise of Lu Ze, the crown prince of the East Palace, made Emperor Qing extremely happy. Over the years, he originally thought that the prince was already in a useless state, but just when Emperor Qing was about to be completely disappointed. , Lu Ze began to show his true skills.
So, for various reasons, Emperor Qing decided to arrange the marriage on Lu Ze.
You can not only use the inner treasury to tear a hole between Lu Ze and the eldest princess Li Yunrui, who has a close relationship, but you can also use Wan'er to attack the Prime Minister Lin Ruofu. At least the Prime Minister is also the Crown Prince. Lin Ruofu, who is the father-in-law, may be forced to step down at any time. Emperor Qing's move of advancing while retreating is very satisfying.
Of course, Emperor Qing, who likes to solve all problems behind the scenes, may also want to inspect the behemoth Overwatch Council.
So he chose to let Fan Xian become the supervisor of the Supervisory Yuan in accordance with Chen Pingping's wishes.
The Control Yuan has noDoubt is the most terrifying dark beast in the Qing Kingdom. Although Emperor Qing has great trust in the old cripple Chen Pingping, as an emperor, he still has to inspect the Supervisory Office from time to time. Fan Xian is used to illuminate the Procuratorate for Emperor Qing. A chess piece.
"Chess piece"
"The emperor may also want to see my loyalty and cooperate with the Overwatch Council to check his own account books. He didn't check the city government, and he was scared to death. , It’s a pity that I have already seen the old cripple in Chen Yuan.”
Lu Ze shook his head.
In fact, when he first came to this world, he had already secretly checked various accounts of the inner treasury on his own. Except for the Northern Qi smuggling line hidden by Li Yunrui, Lu Ze found it easily. Over the years, I and the queen have received kickbacks from the inner treasury.
Although the amount is not small, it is not extremely exaggerated.
After all, who among the dignitaries of the Qing Kingdom these days is not greedy?
Lu Ze thought that his father-in-law, Lin Ruofu, had become greedy under the eyes of the emperor. It seems that the Prime Minister's salary and bonuses are clearly recorded in the Ministry of Household Affairs. The Lin family's extremely luxurious house alone cannot be bought by the Prime Minister with eight hundred years of salary.
Greed is not terrible.
You have to let Emperor Qing, the big boss, know that what you are greedy for matches your ability.
Lu Ze touched his chin with a smile on his face, "According to my ability, several internal treasurers will have to be greedy."
The audit work assigned by Emperor Qing It unfolded quickly.
Chen Pingping had no intention of greeting Lu Ze. She seemed to be thinking about business matters. Of course, the main reason was that Lu Ze did not want to make false accounts. He cooperated with the Supervisory Yuan very honestly. The first department is conducting a summary inspection of the internal treasury's account books over the years.
The head of the Supervisory Yuan Division One is named Zhuge.
This is a middle-aged man with a slightly long face, who handles affairs extremely seriously and responsibly.
The Overwatch Council is divided into eight major divisions, one of which is responsible for supervising hundreds of officials in Beijing. The head of this division seems to be more serious and careful than Lu Ze, the supervisor. Lu Ze Sitting leisurely on the main seat, drinking tea, he said with an indifferent expression, "Sir Zhu Ge is as meticulous as a hair, and he even does it himself. Such meticulousness makes me seem a bit lazy."
Zhu Zhu Ge solemnly bowed to Lu Ze and said in a respectful voice, "This is a matter entrusted by His Majesty. Zhu Ge does not dare to slack off."
Lu Ze smiled and gently held the porcelain cup in his hand. Let it go and say nothing more.
Lu Ze muttered something to himself. This time Chen Pingping sent Zhu Ge to coordinate the audit, probably with the intention of using his own hands to find out the undercover agent of the Supervisory Yuan. Although Li Yunrui in this world did not betray Yan Bingyun like in the original work, old cripple Chen, who is a thief, should have noticed something, something related to Li Yunrui.
So Chen Pingping directly put Zhuge in front of her.
Lu Ze and this old lameSon, the two of them had never even met or discussed anything about this internal treasury review, but a certain tacit understanding already existed. Lu Ze could only lament that the old is the hotter.
After nearly a month, the accounting book screening of the internal treasury has finally come to an end.
Lu Ze very generously settled all the random accounts in the accounts of the Prince's Mansion. The sum totaled was so astonishing that Zhuge looked very surprised in the end. I know what His Highness the Prince means by this move.
"Master Zhuge, don't be embarrassed, just write it down truthfully."
Soon, the things collected by the Overwatch Council were presented to Emperor Qing's desk in the imperial study.
It is said that Emperor Qing became so furious after reading the story that he even smashed his favorite teacup to pieces. After noticing some rumors, the queen quickly found Lu Ze and asked him if he had revealed any flaws. .
The queen even thought that Lu Ze had used this review opportunity to eliminate all the bad debts of the East Palace in the past.
But Lu Ze shook his head.
"I didn't do anything with the account books."
"All the bad debts of the East Palace in the past were submitted to the Overwatch Council."
The queen immediately Shocked.
Her voice was trembling uncontrollably. This woman who had experienced the massacre of her natal family in her early years was a little panicked. "The Supervisory Yuan didn't even give the East Palace face. Could it be that Chen Pingping didn't care at all?" Don’t you think about it for the future? This time?"
The lights were brightly lit in the second prince's mansion. Li Chengze laughed wildly after getting the news. He also felt that the Overwatch Council's methods were fierce, and he did not expect that it was Lu Ze himself. I summarized those things and presented them.
"How do you explain these accounts?"
In the depths of the majestic palace, the atmosphere in the imperial study is extremely depressing. The serving eunuchs have been informed by Eunuch Hou to stay away from the imperial study. In the distance, only the father and son were talking on the light-colored stone bricks.
Emperor Qing stared at Lu Ze expressionlessly, as if he wanted to see through people's hearts with his eyes.
Today Emperor Qing is dressed in aqua silk casual clothes, with a gold hollow dragon-shaped belt tied around his waist. Although he is nearly fifty years old, his black hair is tightly tied back. Sitting casually on the chair, his aura was invisible.
Lu Zegong replied respectfully, "It was all done by the East Palace, and I am willing to bear any consequences."
After seeing the things presented to him, Emperor Qing seemed to Anticipating hearing such an answer, a smile flashed in his eyes. He felt that the prince had indeed improved a lot in the past six months. He knew the priorities of things. There was no doubt that the matter of the inner treasury was something that could not be concealed at all.
Emperor Qing made up his mind to clean up the inner treasury.
So much so that the company commander’s princess was driven back to her fiefdom of Xinyang. The real reason why Li Yunrui was demoted from the capital was naturally not because she planned the Niulan Street assassination, but because she planned the Niulan Street assassination.And because Emperor Qing wanted to clean up the inner treasury again, otherwise the assassination would not be a big deal at all.
In the final analysis, Emperor Qing did not have much affection for the Danzhou illegitimate son.
He can even kill Ye Qingmei, whom he truly loves, let alone Ye Qingmei’s son.
The atmosphere in the imperial study suddenly became less tense.
Before leaving, Lu Ze handed Emperor Qing another small brochure. The corners of Lu Ze's lips raised slightly as he walked out of the Imperial Study Room. The two brochures he handed over before and after he talked about the inner treasury were almost identical. There are only some differences.
If you don’t examine carefully, you won’t be able to see this difference at all.
But Lu Ze believed that Emperor Qing, who dealt with government affairs every day like drinking water, could definitely detect the weirdness in it. However, this His Majesty was also the one who wanted to get to the bottom of the casserole. In his heart, As if he has obsessive-compulsive disorder, he cannot leave any doubts.
The final direction of the two excerpts will converge on a certain family in Qingguo, the Ming family.
The Ming family is the family where the eldest princess and the second prince Li Chengze smuggled into Northern Qi.
Lu Ze quietly killed his second brother. Smuggling for profit with Northern Qi was tantamount to betraying the country, but Lu Ze’s real killing move was to completely tie his second brother to Li Yunrui. Together, Li Chengze will have to bear the true wrath of Emperor Qing.
"Zhuge."
"I can't see what you think you did on the account"
"My silly girl is a Japanese Staring at you day and night."
The east has filled the entire sky with red, and the sun is gradually waking up the sleeping people against the horizon, shining on the most magnificent building in Kyoto, the Imperial Palace. The outer wall seemed to be redder than the first blush on the horizon. He silently watched the people waiting in front of the palace to go to court. Lu Ze's arrival attracted many people's attention. His father-in-law, Lin Ruofu, stood at the forefront of the civil servants. He was drowsy and did not open his eyes.
"His Royal Highness, you just came back from the Imperial Study Room"
At this time, only the second prince Li Chengze dared to speak to Lu Ze.
Lu Ze raised his head and glanced at his second brother. Lu Ze's face was expressionless, but in his heart he had already scolded him several times for being silly. Do you think you are standing in fifth place? Floor, I am standing on the third floor. Actually, I, Lu Ze, am standing on the 4396th floor.
And you.
Already burped
The scorching summer passed quickly and autumn came.
The cool autumn wind passed through the streets and alleys of Kyoto, blowing on the smooth faces of the women. The red maple leaves on the Western Mountains became a beautiful scenery, attracting many people to stop and sit there. Poems like "Love Maple Forest Evening" are very suitable for such a pleasant season.
The arrival of autumn also means that Lu Ze and Wan'er's marriage will come soon.
To the surprise of many people in the capital, the Supervisory Yuan was ordered to review the size of the internal treasury’s account books.It seems that the thunder is loud but the raindrops are small, and the reputation of the prince Lu Ze has only been slightly affected, but his momentum in the court is getting bigger and bigger. Until the wedding in the prince's mansion is about to arrive at the beginning of next month, it will be grand and grand.
Many wedding matters in the East Palace are naturally handled by the Queen.
Lu Ze was the first prince of the Qing Kingdom to have a formal wedding. In addition, there was a prince from the country who personally took charge of the arrangements, so that a month before the wedding, rumors spread in Kyoto that the prince For the news of the wedding, Dong Palace began to prepare for it early.
The lively and festive atmosphere has become noisy.
As for Wan'er, since the eldest princess is not in Beijing, Yigui is in charge of Taiping Villa.
Concubine Yigui is the biological mother of the third prince Li Chengping. She is usually very popular with Emperor Qing. Otherwise, she would not be able to give birth to a son with the Holy Scroll in her arms when Emperor Qing is not interested in the harem. , Concubine Yigui is responsible for Wan'er's marriage, which also shows that His Majesty attaches great importance to her.
Many people did not expect that on such a day, His Majesty would not allow the eldest princess in Xinyang to come back.
Lu Ze knew the reason.
Zhu Ge, the host of the Supervisory Yuan Section 1, seems to have disappeared in recent times, and coupled with the fact that Emperor Qing has become increasingly temperamental in recent days, it is easy to think that the dispute between the eldest princess and Zhu Ge The matter was officially exposed, and Lu Ze played a big role in it.
But Lu Ze, who was newly married, no longer thought about those things.
This wedding is one of the few major events in Kyoto in recent years. Even the officials from the second prince’s side have to come to the East Palace on the first day of October to present a heavy gift. , this has nothing to do with party disputes, but the courtesy that should be shown to the future prince.
During these days, many people in the court could notice that the prince was much more relaxed about the fight between the two princes.
Lu Ze’s various actions did not seem to regard the second prince as an opponent in the party struggle at all.
