Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Xiao Feng no longer pursued Tan Tong, but turned to deal with Zhao Wenhua.
"Sir Zhao, although the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Affairs says that it behaves irregularly and seems to be contemptuous of the Holy One, it is still a good teacher after all. Why did your Ministry of Works send a doctor to each construction team to forcefully purchase glutinous rice?"
Tan Tong almost vomited blood, and was so angry that he cursed Xiao Feng in his heart: It's just that he behaves irregularly, and he still despises His Majesty. Don't you know that this is a crime of confiscating the house? He wanted to retort, but Xiao Feng just said the first half of the sentence casually.
He said, turning to Zhao Wenhua in the second half of the sentence.
The person being questioned was Zhao Wenhua. Zhao Wenhua hadn't said anything yet. If Tan Tong jumped out to quarrel, wouldn't that mean he told everyone clearly: Yes, we are in the same group, so what?
Therefore, Tan Tong could only suffer the loss of being dumb and swallowed back the old blood that he had not spit out.
Just now, Tan Tong and his godfather drew firepower for him and blocked the first shot, giving Zhao Wenhua time to prepare. At this time, he finally racked his brains to come up with a justifiable reason.
"Our Ministry of Works is responsible for supervising the construction of buildings all over the country. It conducts routine inspections of the construction teams in Beijing to ensure that they have qualified construction materials. What's the problem? It's just that our action time coincides with that of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Why?
Isn't there any chance of coincidence in the world?"
This rhetorical question is very tricky. It is obviously too much of a coincidence, but just one sentence can explain everything. Why, coincidences are not allowed in the world? Then how can people buy lottery tickets?
Xiao Feng was not fooled at all: "It doesn't matter if you and the Ministry of Household Affairs act at the same time, but since the Ministry of Works is just a routine inspection, why did they forcefully buy other people's glutinous rice? The construction team made half a bag of rice cakes at home, and the Ministry of Household Affairs was too embarrassed to do it.
, your Ministry of Industry still wants to buy it, does it have such inspection?"
Zhao Wenhua thought that it was really difficult to explain this matter, so he had to deny it: "It's nothing, you're just talking nonsense!"
Xiao Feng said with a smile: "This matter is known to everyone in the capital and has become a joke. If Mr. Zhao doesn't believe it, let's go to the street and find ten random people. Do you think they know?"
Zhao Wenhua felt weak immediately. He had indeed heard about this matter. Xiao Feng was so confident that he was sure of it. He did not dare to make a bet. He could only say without confidence: "This, this, that doctor, he is a temporary transfer
He came here and doesn’t understand the rules, um, yes, he just transferred from the Ministry of Civil Service.”
Xiao Feng blinked. He didn't expect that temporary workers would be available so early. He did not continue to pester: "As for who is the businessman's backstage and who is competing with the people for profit, there is actually a best way to find out.
I just don’t know if you adults agree.”
Zhao Wenhua wiped away the cold sweat and thought it was a dangerous situation. He had already been forced into a corner and was almost acting rogue. Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng did not pursue the victory but changed the topic. Naturally, he was eager to do so. Tan Tong also breathed a sigh of relief.
, the two asked almost at the same time: "What can we do?"
Xiao Feng saluted Jiajing solemnly, and Jiajing's slightly closed eyes opened wider. He was also curious about what simple and effective way Xiao Feng had come up with to end this annoying wrangling situation.
"Long live, whether it is a businessman's background or competing for profits with the people, the core purpose is the word profit! If there is no profit, naturally these will not hold true.
For this reason, Wei Chen implores Long Live to issue an edict to check Wei Chen and Lord Zhao and discuss the Lord's family property. If it exceeds the legitimate income by a lot, then he is a businessman's backend; if it does not exceed the legitimate income, then he is naturally not a businessman.
backstage!”
As soon as this statement came out, it was shocking! There were less than ten people in the Xiaochao meeting, and they suddenly let out a roar. Even Jiajing couldn't help but let out an "ah", and then felt embarrassed and not calm enough. He immediately closed his eyes slightly and looked around.
one time.
In fact, he was overthinking it. Everyone was either shocked or panicked. They were all immersed in their own inner worlds. No one noticed his gaffe. Only then did he feel relieved. He thought about Xiao Feng's words seriously and found that there was really nothing he could do.
answer.
This trick is actually very simple, but no one has ever actually used it. Even the arrogant Hai Rui later never openly clamored for the emperor to check someone's family property. This is because this is an unspoken rule of officialdom, and it is also
Secrets that officials cannot tell.
Even if the people all over the country know that an official is corrupt, the censor can impeach him for certain specific acts of corruption, but he cannot say: "Is he corrupt or not? Just check his family property." This is not impeachment, it is flipping the table.
, everyone, stop playing.
It was also impossible for the emperor to directly send people to check the ministers' property without specific crimes and cases, because at that time, checking the property and confiscating the property were actually just one step away. After checking the property, whether the property was confiscated or not, the official
Basically, there is no need to bet, and no one will accept it.
But Xiao Feng didn't care about this. In later TV shows, the Independent Commission Against Corruption used this trick. Xiao Feng saw it too much. Instead of working hard to find out someone's criminal facts, it would be better to let him explain his unclear facts.
source of income.
Xiao Feng is not afraid to check the family property. He has a dual identity. As a member of Zhongshushe, he will quit if he doesn't want to do it. But Tan Tong and Zhao Wenhua are different. They have worked hard for half their lives and even recognized their godfather, just to get promoted and make a fortune.
How could it be that after finally becoming a second-grade jade, it could be separated from Xiao Feng, a smelly and hard stone?
So they both knelt down at the same time and burst into tears: "Long live, long live, this is an eternal injustice! If Long live inspects our family property, we are willing to kill our humble minister!"
Xiao Feng said loudly: "Long live, in order to reassure the two adults, Long live can check Wei Chen's family property first. If there is something wrong with Wei Chen's family property and exceeds Wei Chen's legitimate income, then there is no need to check the two adults'. That's it.
How is it?"
Yan Song secretly cursed the little fox in his heart. This sentence sounded righteous, but the subtext was: If there is no problem with Wei Chen's family property, then the two adults' property still needs to be inspected.
The problem is that Xiao Feng does not have much property, and all his property is in the hands of Zhang Tianci. Tan Tong and Zhao Wenhua could have used this method to embezzle, but how could they trust others and put their property in other people's hands?
Not to mention a guy like Tan Xinren, even at his godfather's house, he wouldn't dare to let it go, otherwise it might be confiscated by his godbrother.
Seeing that Zhao and Tan were in a panic and had no other solution except crying, Yan Song had no choice but to stand up again to stabilize the situation: "Long live, what Xiao Feng said is not unreasonable, but this matter is not a big deal in the first place, so we are making trouble for it."
It caused an uproar and shocked the government and the public, but in fact the gains outweighed the losses."
Jiajing heard that Yan Song wanted to send troops to withdraw his troops, and was secretly amused. He asked calmly: "In accordance with your wishes, what should I do?"
Yan Song sighed: "This matter is reported by the imperial censor. Xiao She is originally a close minister of Long Live, so a few words of advice from Long Live are enough. However, Xiao Feng also has the identity of a real person, and his behavior should be consistent with the status of a real person. After all, he is a young man.
, it is inevitable that there will be oversights. Everyone’s advice is also well-intentioned. In the opinion of the veteran, this matter is over and no one can mention it again."
Yan Song was cunning and calculating. He knew that by now he was at a complete disadvantage. Not only would he not be able to get a favor, but when he launched other attacks later, he would be easily brought up by Xiao Feng's old story to confuse his vision. Therefore, he made a statement in advance.
, no one can mention this matter again.
Jiajing didn't think much about it. He thought it was a trivial matter. He felt uncomfortable for another reason. He neither wanted to deal with Xiao Feng for this, nor did he want to embarrass Yan Dang by going to war over it, so he nodded and agreed to Yan Song's proposal.
suggestion.
Only then did Zhao Wenhua and Tan Tong get up from the ground with tears in their eyes. Looking at the smiling Xiao Feng, they wished they could pounce on him and strangle him to death. But they couldn't help but secretly feel proud: So what if you have the upper hand? It's not Yan Song who just said a word and everything is yours.
Has the offensive been resolved?
Only Huang Jin and Lu Bing, who were standing by, looked at each other. Yan Song blocked the attack, seemingly without any impact. In fact, it was because the health bar was too thick and could not be seen. How could he be used as a human shield without being injured?
of?
What he consumes is Jiajing's good impression of him! This kind of invisible injuries will gradually accumulate, and one day, the internal injuries will break out, and he will be hit by a big move, and he may not be able to withstand it.
Yan Song is old and cunning, how could he not know this truth? So he immediately launched a counterattack and used his hidden ultimate move, hoping to defeat Xiao Feng in one fell swoop and at least reduce Xiao Feng's status in Jiajing's mind, so that he could be dealt with slowly in the future.
.
"Long live, before I went to court today, I received another censor's bullet, impeaching Xiao Sheren for using his status as a courtier to secretly make friends and mobilize the Jin Yiwei. First, he served as a personal guard in a private house, and yesterday he served as a guard in Taibai Jushang.
He acts as a follower. He also befriends the prince and uses King Yu's personal bodyguard for his own use. I think Xiao Sheren should have an explanation for this matter!"
Zhao Wenhua's eyes lit up: Godfather, you are not only my godfather, you are simply my biological father! This killing move, let alone Xiao Feng, even if Xia Yan comes back to life, he will be beaten down on the spot!
The Jin Yiwei were the emperor's personal armed forces. Even a guy as arrogant and domineering as Yan Shifan did not dare to openly befriend Lu Bing, and had to communicate secretly. Even if he knew that he could not hide it from Jiajing, at least he had to show his posture.
As for the prince, it is even more fatal. The emperor is still alive, what do you want to do by befriending the prince? These two crimes are more taboo for people who are around the emperor, and Xiao Feng is an official from Zhongshushe
, for the sake of Taoism, the real person Wenxuan is so close to Jiajing. How can such a suspicious person like Jiajing not be suspicious?
Tan Tong lowered his head, as if looking at his toes. Pan Huang stood beside him and glanced sideways at him. He saw that this man was trying his best to suppress the urge to laugh to the sky, using all his strength on his facial muscles.
On the control, I was so tired that I was shaking.
It stands to reason that Lu Bing was half-involved in this accusation, but Lu Bing showed no signs of wavering, not even a hair trembling.
Others don't understand, but Huang Jin knows very well: in Jiajing's heart, Lu Bing is a chaste and martyr woman. He will believe that others seduce Lu Bing, but he will not believe that Lu Bing is having sex with others. Therefore, Lu Bing is guilty of seducing Lu Bing.
Not guilty!
Xiao Feng met Jiajing's gaze, smiled calmly, and turned to Yan Song: "Master Chief Assistant, before explaining these things, Wei Chen would like to ask first, does the censor want to impeach Wei Chen, or does he want to frame Lu through Wei Chen?
