Chapter 409: The Life That Was Replaced 30
Teahouses, flies, high-end restaurants, and every corner of the capital, from ninety-nine to the bottom, they are just about to leave, men, women, young and old, and they are talking about a very explosive news that has been coming from somewhere in the capital recently!
Often, people come to a small tavern where people sit idle and many people whisper together with their heads. Although the people are not allowed to talk about political affairs, this matter can almost be said to be well-known. The law does not punish the public. No matter how unwilling the superiors, they cannot cut down everyone.
"Hey, have you heard of it? It is said that the twelfth prince's grandfather's family hides a lot of gold and silver?"
"Hey, there are not many! You can't see that you have this information. It is said that there are 5 million silver patterns! There are tens of thousands of taels of gold! There are countless gold, silver and jewelry!"
"Yes, yes, I heard from my nephew's daughter of my fourth uncle and second aunt's family that the Minister of Revenue took all the money in the treasury into his own warehouse! His warehouse couldn't even be filled, so he specially bought a villa in the suburbs of Beijing to install the gold and silver. If someone hadn't been accidentally discovered, the treasury would have been emptied by their family!"
"This Minister of Revenue is really unethical. He trusts him as Minister of Revenue. He gives him the money from the treasury to manage. Why does he treat the treasury as his own warehouse and just take it out?! He takes away the treasury things from the treasury, what can the people in the world spend?!"
For a time, such words were circulating everywhere, and there was no way to know where they came from. In short, this matter became more and more evil. Everyone said this, and the person who said it did not want to know whether it was true or false. It was just that such a thing was strange. One thing was passed down from ten to ten, and ten to hundreds of people, and everyone knew it.
Of course, this sentence also spread in the palace. The emperor with his eyes all over the world inevitably knew about this and immediately called the Minister of Revenue to the Imperial Study Room!
The Minister of Revenue was hit by the rumors outside, and he felt that his head was about to move at any time. Every step he took was like walking on the tip of a knife, which made him almost unsteady and fell to the ground. He finally came to the emperor's imperial study room step by step, and suddenly he was overwhelmed and could not get up!
The Minister of Revenue is a thin old man in his fifties. He looks shrewd and looks like he is not a smart person. He just takes a small abacus and scatters all day long. His favorite thing to do is to argue with the ministers of the country because of that little money, trying to get everything done without spending a little money.
The emperor originally admired him very much, but he didn't expect that this man loved money so much because he did not save money for the treasury, but made money for his own family and brought all the money from the treasury into his own warehouse. He really found a good minister!!
The emperor is over fifty years old, and his health is not very good, and his heart is getting worse and worse. Now that he has heard the rumors outside, even if the Minister of Revenue has nothing to do, he will inevitably feel disgusted. If something really happens, he will doubt that he will be the first to choose the Minister of Revenue.
The emperor had already ordered people to investigate the Minister of Revenue, hoping that the Minister of Revenue could withstand investigation, otherwise his entire family would have been confiscated if he stole the country's money. The grandson of the Minister of Revenue, the emperor's own son, and the twelfth prince Mo Xingyuan could no longer be his prince leisurely!
The Minister of Revenue knelt on the ground and apologized to the emperor. His voice was still steady, but he could still hear the fear. If he was not afraid at all, the Emperor would rather doubt the Minister of Revenue's psychology was so strong that it was, and whether something was really wrong.
No matter what the Minister of Revenue said, the emperor ignored him and would only give the Minister of Revenue an answer when his people investigated.
The Minister of Revenue has been kneeling on the ground, not moving, and he dared not let anyone fart, for fear of disturbing the emperor's mood, so he would let the emperor crack him again.
Looking at the old face of the Minister of Revenue, the emperor felt annoyed and simply put him in prison. As soon as he got the Minister of Revenue away, the twelfth prince came to plead for mercy.
This does not appear in front of the emperor often, and even as long as he does not appear, the emperor cannot remember such a son.
The twelfth prince was abnormal this time and showed great enthusiasm for the emperor. When he came to the imperial study room, he never mentioned the matter of his grandfather's family. He expressed his sincere concern for the emperor, said a few messy words, and then said goodbye and left. This made the emperor wonder. He couldn't figure out what the medicine was selling in the gourd of his twelve sons.
Mo Xingyuan left the emperor, returned to his bedroom, drove everyone out, locked himself in the house and made a big furious incident!
He didn't know how the news came out and who came out!
I just hope that the King of Huai'an can handle the matter quickly. If the emperor finds out something, all their efforts will be wasted!
Some of the rumors are indeed true and some are also false. The Minister of Revenue did accumulate a lot of money from the treasury, but it did not reach such an exaggerated number.
Moreover, the money was not in the Ministry of Revenue's House, and they had long been transferred to the hands of the King of Huai'an. They were not stupid. It was already dangerous to get money from the emperor's nose. They had to hide it in their own homes. Isn't that just sending the handle to the emperor and giving the emperor a reason to arrest them!
"Why are you blamed me? I am you, you are me! All the decisions I made by me are inseparable from you, so don't try to shirk it!"
There was clearly no one in the room, but Mo Xingyuan said this to the air with a strange expression. Then he smiled. His eleven-year-old face was still full of childishness. This smile made him look particularly evil.
"Don't think you are a good person. If you are really a good person, I wouldn't show up! If you don't want to be a bad person, you will push me out and let me take responsibility for you. Now you want to shirk responsibility? There is no door! I tell you, when we stay together, what I do is what you do, and no one will separate you and me."
"I advise you to be honest, otherwise don't blame me for being polite!"
Mo Xingyuan's expression was ferocious for a moment, and then became full of anger, and then evil spirits were everywhere. Soon his expression returned to normal.
He checked his messy sleeves, looked at the waiting mirror in the room, and confirmed that he was not perfect in the instrument, so he walked out of the room.
He had a gentle and polite smile on his face, treating everyone kindly, even the servants in his palace were no exception, making the people in the palace very fond of him, and no one knew what kind of crazy state he was when he was alone just now.
Mo Xingyuan didn't know that there was a little gardener who was just taking care of flowers and plants in the small garden behind his room! His crazy appearance was seen by the little gardener!
