"Build hidden lines or some hidden stakes, lead the target to trap, and then catch the turtle in the jar." Wu Shudan nodded, "This is the trick that Your Highness is used to, and his style."

"Although the words are not nice, we must admit that our Highness is indeed like this. But..."

"But what?"

"Mr. Yi is the first person to enjoy our Highness's care. Before Mr. Yi, our Highness had never done such a thing."

"Never?" Wu Shudan narrowed his eyes and looked suspicious, "Really?"

"I dare not deceive the three adults at this point, it is indeed like this." Ziyi glanced at Yi Qianzhang and sighed softly, "The villain said just now that if it weren't for the princess of the Sixth Prince's family, he would never have thought that he could only sulk himself, and finally he would get sick. Then, at most, he hoped who could help him avenge this revenge. After all, he was beyond the reach of a place like the Sixth Master."

"So, it should be the princess of the Sixth Prince's family who accidentally helped His Highness Aoki a favor, but the princess himself didn't know it, right?"

"This is natural." Ziyi nodded, "After the princess got married, she took her chosen husband Tanhualang to the fiefdom and has never been back until now."

"It seems like this." Apiao nodded, "Come on, continue talking, tell me how His Highness Aoki took revenge."

"Yes." Ziyi bowed slightly, "Do the three adults still remember the fake silver case that caused a sensation in the entire Dajin?"

"Fake silver case?" Hei Lu'er, Wu Shu Dan and A Piao looked at each other, "Is it the one we know?"

"Not." Ziyi nodded, "Dajin only has such a fake silver case, right?"

"Then I know, I'm really impressed." Hei Lu'er sighed softly and said, "That case was a big fuss back then. From the incident to the final closing, it lasted for a whole year. Anyone who was involved in the fake silver case was taken to the Ministry of Justice awaiting trial. As a result, it turned out to be a farce at the end of the trial."

"I remember too." Wu Shudan sighed, "The reason was that it was a minor official, who was very dissatisfied with his Shangguan's endless oppression and wanted to revenge his Shangguan. Just so, his Shangguan was in charge of the bank treasury, so he deliberately made up such rumors, saying that his Shangguan robbed himself and replaced the official silver in the bank treasury with fake silver. The original intention of the minor official was just to see Shangguan suffer and get some satisfaction. But he did not expect that the rumors he spread caused half of the Yiqing Mansion to turmoil."

"Although I was with Your Highness at that time, I also heard of this case. Later, the case was found out that the minor official who spreads rumors, the person who helped the minor official spread rumors, and the Shangguan who was the minor official, were all killed, but this case still caused chaos in the entire Dajin. Anyone who was involved in the fake silver case either resigned voluntarily or was forced to dismiss his post. Six ministries, or even more yamen, had undergone a complete blood exchange after that case." Apiao paused, "If I remember correctly, Prince Wanyan was also affected by this because of the Ministry of Revenue, right?"

"Yes." Ziyi affirmed Apiao's statement, "The salary was fined for three years and was suspended for half a year. However, the old prince was not affected by this. Although the house was suspended, the Ministry of Revenue was still responsible for the prince, but he had just changed to another place to work."

“But none of these matter.”

Wu Shu Dan walked over with a chicken leg in his mouth, holding a plate in his hand, which contained freshly baked roasted chicken leg, which was stuffed directly to Hei Luer.

"Not important?" Hei Luer raised his eyebrows, "What is important?"

"What's important is that this kid brought this case specifically, which means that this case should have a deep connection with Yi Qianzhang and that high man. Could it be..." Wu Shudan looked at Ziyi, "The little official who spreads rumors was instructed by His Highness Aoki?" He immediately denied his speculation, "No, with the style of his highness doing things, even if it was the first time he did such a thing, he would not reveal such a big flaw. If the little official was instructed by him, he would provide the one who was arrested."

"What this lord said is that this matter has nothing to do with our Highness, our Highness's role in it..." Ziyi glanced at Yi Qianzhang, "but he pushed Mr. Yi, who had nothing to do with this case, into it. Mr. Yi had to resign from his post because of this case."

"So that's how it is." Apiao nodded, "How did Your Highness Aoki push Mr. Yi over? Since he has nothing to do with the fake silver case."

"To be with the Ministry of Revenue, it is impossible to have nothing to do with it, right? But if it is related, it is too much to look down on him." Ziyi looked at Yi Qianzhang, "To put it nicely, it is the head of the Ministry of Revenue, and the ugly thing is to do odd jobs. The more complicated the things are, the more they need to do." He said, laughing, "A great talent was thrown into this place full of the smell of money. Doing these mundane affairs that make them headaches should be as uncomfortable as it is. The errands of the Ministry of Revenue may be a fat man for others, but for the great talent, it is very painful, just like purgatory."

"This..." Apiao nodded, "It is true that our Dajin government has almost the same official position as in Xia State. There are some differences between military officers, but civil servants are completely the same. And the students who come out of the imperial examination here usually go to the Hanlin Academy to study books, or go to the Censorate to be censors, and then they enter the cabinet as they work. On the contrary, those who do practical things like the Ministry of Revenue do not like them."

"Yes." Ziyi nodded, "In comparison to entering the Six Divisions, they would rather let go."

"That's what your highness sees?" Apiao shook his head gently, "If you want to enter the Hanlin Academy again, it may have nothing to do with the fake silver case. So, how did Your Highness Aoki do it?"

"It's not very difficult." Ziyi shrugged, "A brother of Your Highness, his father is responsible for the investigation of fake silver cases. When His Highness was having dinner with this brother, he pretended to be careless and said, "The Ministry of Revenue should thoroughly investigate, everyone is suspected, especially those officials, who should have a lot of money passed by them every day, and no one knows whether the people among them will be connected."

"It's because of this sentence? All the officials of the Ministry of Revenue and the people around them have been investigated?"
