"If I had known, I should have listened to me and told grandpa directly about the matter and asked him to help. That man named Lu has long been turned into a fan. However, it is not too late to tell grandpa now. He has always loved me the most. I will
Go and explain the situation to him." Yang Zhen said it as an afterthought and got up to find help.
"Stop! How many times have I told you, don't panic when something happens. Even if Lu is lucky to be alive, so what, just relying on an account book of unknown origin can't do anything to us. You know, the discount has been copied and tampered with by us.
, and Jiang Zheng is gone, there is simply no evidence to prove his death. We can even say that he forged the account books and framed me in this palace. Therefore, killing him was just to be sure. If it didn't succeed, it didn't hurt. He was just a minister and could not turn over anything.
Waves." Liu Sisi analyzed wisely.
Yang Zhen heard this and thought that this was indeed the case. He breathed a sigh of relief and then half-complained: "Mother, you could have told me earlier, and you gave me a false alarm."
"You still need me to tell you such a simple reasoning. As long as you spend 10% of your idle thoughts on the right path, you won't need me to break it." Liu Sisi lectured. After speaking, she sighed helplessly and continued:
"You have been going to your father's place more recently, put away your uneducated look, and behave better. Your image in his eyes is not very good."
"It's better to exempt it. Every time I go to greet you, I always ask questions about political affairs. If someone doesn't answer satisfactorily, I will be scolded. I'm not a cheap person. It's not fun to go find me when I have nothing to do." Yang Zhen complained directly, saying.
After that, he hurriedly resigned and left. Before Liu Sisi could call back, he quickly left the palace.
"Incorrigible." Liu Sisi looked at Yang Zhen's hurriedly leaving figure with a dignified expression and spoke with emotion.
Royal palace, royal study.
Yang Qianren was reviewing the memorial, and Geng Nian stood under him.
"How is the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance doing?" Yang Qianren asked while reading the folder.
Geng Nian replied: "A sword pierced the shoulder, and it did not damage the root. It needs cultivation, and it is not a serious problem."
"Where did the killer come from?" Yang Qianren continued to ask.
Geng Nian replied: "The killer's body was burned, and we don't know the specific information. I heard from the minister's statement that the killer is a master of the eighth level of Tongmai."
"Is it the eighth level of Tongmai?" Yang Qianren said to himself, and then said to Gengnian: "Send me a message to him, and come to the imperial study room when it's almost healed."
Geng Nian accepted the order and resigned.
House of Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue.
It has to be said that the monk's body is durable and has an amazing recovery ability. In just three days, Li Xiaotian's minor injuries were almost healed, and the serious injuries on his shoulders were 50% to 60% recovered. At this time, Li Xiaotian suddenly remembered to search for the killer.
The storage bag that came in was filled with vitality and examined. There were about 50,000 to 60,000 gold coins and seven or eight bottles of various vitality-replenishing medicines. What surprised Li Xiaotian the most was that the Xuanru Sword Technique that the guy said was also lying in the storage bag.
.
From the beginning of the fierce battle with the killer, Li Xiaotian was keenly aware that the guy's Xuanru sword technique was unusual and unpredictable. He could actually keep up with the divine walking skills, and finally broke through Li Xiaotian's subtle skills.
The movement caused him serious injuries. Although it was a full blow from the killer, in other words, that guy had only learned the three styles of Xuanru Sword Technique. If he mastered the skill of walking in a subtle way,
The first three moves of Xuanru's sword technique should be able to dodge with ease. From this point of view, Xuanru's sword technique should not be as high-level as the divine walking step. It is estimated that it is a top-level skill of a yellow level, and the Hunyuan fist is a yellow level one.
The mid-level skills are very powerful. The top-level yellow skills are not only rare, but they are also rare for Tongmai monks. In addition, they have the same effect as the divine walking steps.
The combination of methods is like a tiger with added power, and it has reached a higher level. Thinking that he can finally use weapons seriously, Li Xiaotian feels very happy. If it were not for the injuries on his body, he would be eager to try it.
"Since the injury is not serious, it's time to go to the palace and take care of business." Li Xiaotian murmured to himself. The king had earlier asked Geng Nian to come to the palace to see the king after the injury was almost healed. Now three days have passed.
As a senior monk, the king must understand the recovery ability of monks. It is not appropriate to lie down anymore. What should come will come, and what should be dealt with must be solved. It is a blessing, not a curse. It is a curse that cannot be avoided. It will be easy to finish the matter early.
Royal palace, royal study.
Li Xiaotian stood obediently in the middle of the study, and Yang Qianren was reviewing the notes seriously. Yang Qianren did not say anything, and Li Xiaotian naturally could not ask first. This situation lasted for nearly a cup of tea.
"Do you know why there are so many memorials coming in?" Yang Qianren suddenly asked.
Li Xiaotian cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I am ignorant and don't know."
"The contents of these excerpts are all the same. Do you know what they are about?" Yang Qianren continued to ask.
Li Xiaotian replied: "Your Majesty, I am ignorant and don't know."
"If you are ignorant, I'm afraid there will be no smart people in the world. If you can't answer now, you will just stay here for the whole day and don't go anywhere." Yang Qianren said angrily.
As a gentleman says, a horse cannot be chased, let alone King Chrysostom. It is definitely not a joke. Li Xiaotian did not want to stand around for a day, so he replied: "If I am not wrong, I should have something to do with the proliferation of zhezi.
"
Yang Qianren didn't answer, but just stared at Li Xiaotian, subtext saying that if you fart, hurry up.
Li Xiaotian went on to explain: "On this patrol, at the last moment of entering Beijing, the minister not only killed the state pastor in anger, but also returned all the stolen money to the people. All the stolen money will be put into the national treasury, so there should be some
All the civil and military officials were very dissatisfied with my actions, and they all read this book."
Yang Qianren hummed: "You still have some self-awareness. You killed the state pastor who I personally pardoned, and you also scattered all the money that should have been put into the national treasury. This is not only the reason why the officials are admonishing you, but also makes me very puzzled.
If your reasons are not appropriate enough to convince me, then I can only deal with you as they advised."
"The ancients said that reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. On this tour, I passed through the cities of sixteen states and witnessed a lot of suffering in the world. There were people who could not find food and clothing, people who had no money for medical treatment, and people who almost died of illness when they were lost looking for their husbands.
There are those who were falsely accused and imprisoned, and there were also those who were deceived into black mines and were extremely desperate. There are so many kinds of things that are too numerous to mention. Along the way, I kept thinking that they are not lazy people, so why do they work so hard?
The people who are working hard to live have problems even with the most basic food, clothing and medical care. What is the problem? The answer is obvious, it is corruption. Basic taxes are not considered light, but those corrupt officials secretly increase them several times.
Making huge profits, this behavior is no different from that of a robber. No, it should be called a poison master. He is a master of using chronic poisons, killing people without blood. In my opinion, those stolen money are mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and piles of bones.
Only by returning it to where it was taken from can we comfort the souls of those who lost their lives."
