The officials of the household department are all veterans of making false accounts, and the outgoing and incoming entries have been smoothed out early in the morning. Not to mention that the emperor found a dozen capable officials to audit, even if he found a hundred, it would be useless. All the big families are also waiting on the ground, waiting for the emperor to find out one, two, three, and impeaching him collectively. The royal family members are also ready to launch an attack.

However, things backfired, but after checking the accounts for three days, the emperor has uncovered five or six shocking corruption cases, including theft of military rations, theft of military pay, fraudulent relief, interception of treasury silver, etc. The total amount of corruption reached A shocking 10 million taels, which is equivalent to the sum of the tax revenue of the Dayong Kingdom for ten years, and hundreds of officials, large and small, were implicated.

The first emperor was afraid of all the generals stationed on the frontier and tried to suppress them, so he turned a blind eye to the crime of stealing military salaries and rations by the household department, so that the situation became more and more serious, and even countless soldiers on the frontier died of freezing and starving to death every year. It is also because of this that when the fifth prince said that he would enter King Jingqin, the soldiers from all over the country responded and made him the new lord.

He wants to rectify the imperial court and clear the household department, so what if the dignitaries in the capital don't agree? He only needs to transfer the hungry and cold soldiers from the frontier, such as the Weihu Army, Benhu Army, and Dragon Cavalry Army, to the capital, and let them go inside and outside the court hall. Character?

Hubu Shangshu was first sentenced to death by Ling Chi, implicated in the nine clans, and all his subordinates were killed. Not only the household department, but also officials from other ministries were implicated, and many people were imprisoned for a while. This bloody storm came too suddenly, which caught Dayong's dignitaries by surprise and made them panic. They couldn't imagine how the emperor sorted out such a huge and complicated account within three days, and how did he find the ironclad evidence?

At that time, the Hubu Shangshu who was imprisoned in the sky prison had also brought them a message, saying that there was absolutely no problem with the accounts, and asked them to just mediate for themselves and counter the emperor. Look at it now, is it okay? It is full of loopholes! So someone bribed several officials of the Inspectorate to inquire about the situation, and only then did they know that all the evidence was found by a young man seconded by the Ministry of Criminal Justice. His ability to check accounts is unparalleled in the world. And he has only checked one-tenth of the accounts so far, if it continues, more people will be implicated.

If Langzhong Zhao is gone, the world will be peaceful! This idea appeared in the minds of many powerful and powerful people at the same time, and then they ordered each other to buy his head with a lot of money.

Youshu's house has been very lively recently. In order to protect his safety, King Yama came every night, and did not leave until the next day when he was safely sent to the side hall of Qianqing Palace. Those killers who visited Zhao's mansion were either crazy, unconscious, or disappeared. For half a month, they didn't even touch Zhao Langzhong's side. But those colleagues who betrayed him were dismissed from office, put into prison, and waited to be executed after autumn.

.

I also blame them for their short-sightedness. If they finish this errand well, they will be promoted to the ranks just around the corner. But they just thought that the emperor's foundation was shallow, and he could not compete with the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, so they turned into internal thieves instead. As everyone knows, the emperor's foundation in the court is indeed shallow, but he has a full three million soldiers and horses in his hands, and has dispatched most of them to besiege the capital. It's as easy as eating and drinking.
