Chapter 923 The Account Book That Cannot Be Taken Out
Hao Ruhai didn't have time to think about why this account book appeared here.He quickly withdrew and came back, stepped forward, stretched out his hand to take the account book, and said with an apologetic smile: "My lord, this booklet is mistaken. This is not the account book of the household department. My lord, let the humble official take it back."

At this time, Qin Hao already noticed that this booklet was different from other account books, and out of curiosity, he opened the first page.

And when he glanced at the numbers and items recorded above, his eyes widened instantly, and there was a bang in his head.

They have checked for many days and found nothing, but the content recorded on this page is so amazing!

Immediately, out of the corner of his eye, Qin Hao saw a hand reaching out, and at the same time heard Hao Ruhai talking.With a subconscious hand, he pulled the account book away from the table, placed it in a safer place by his side, and looked at Hao Ruhai vigilantly.

Hao Ruhai's face was so pale that it couldn't be any whiter, and he begged urgently: "My lord, this booklet is indeed not from the Ministry of Household Affairs, please return it to the humble official."

The two people who were with Qin Hao also saw that something was wrong, and even the other clerks in this room who checked the account books raised their eyes.

"What's the rush, Mr. Hao? Is it right? I have to read it." Qin Hao looked at Hao Ruhai with a good eye, but kept his hands, slowly rolled up the booklet, and was about to stuff it into his arms.

Hao Ruhai was so frightened that he wanted to tear his eyes apart, and he didn't care about his rank and position, so he rushed forward and tried to snatch it.

Qin Hao immediately stood up and retreated, yelling: "Bold Hao Ruhai! This is the Ministry of Household Affairs, but it is also an important place for the court. As a subordinate official, you dare to attack the superior official. Are you trying to rebel?"

Qin Hao's voice immediately attracted the attention of many people.The household department is considered the crown prince's old nest, but few people know that the other account book of the household department is in the hands of Hao Ruhai.

At this time, although someone looked at Qin Hao suspiciously and vigilantly, they didn't realize how serious the matter was, and only thought that the two had a dispute because of the audit.

One of the principals whispered to a small official beside him: "Go and find Master Shangshu."

Hao Ruhai can't wait for Yu Shiqing to come over, and if the account books can't be taken back, it's useless for anyone to come.

He cupped his hands again, "My lord, this is really not the account book of the Ministry of Accounts. I beg you to return it to the humble official. The humble official took something wrong. I don't know where it is. I am afraid that it will stain the eyes of the adult. Please allow the humble official to take it. back."

Hao Ruhai was so panicked that he didn't know what to do.This thing is too important, it is related to the wealth and names of his family.This matter involved too much, once it happened, it would not be a matter of his head falling to the ground alone.

If the emperor conducts a thorough investigation according to this account book, I am afraid that not many officials from the crown prince to the top and bottom of the household department will be spared.If the investigation continues, it will even affect local officials, and it is unknown what kind of turmoil will arise.

The more urgent Hao Ruhai was, the more Qin Hao felt that this account book was of great importance, how could it be returned to him?

Qin Hao called the scribes around him to stop Hao Ruhai, while he winked at the other two, intending to leave immediately.

During the uproar, the guards on duty rushed over upon hearing the sound, and kept yelling: "My lords, if you have something to say, please stop! My lord, if you don't listen to my persuasion, I will really take you to Dali Temple Asking questions!"

These few people thought that there was a dispute between officials, or even disagreement, and they were about to fight. They didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all, so they just blindly tried to persuade them.

Jiang Yifan and Li Zheng didn't go far at all, but they turned around when they heard the words.Seeing that the situation was not right, he hurriedly stepped forward to hold Hao Ruhai, while persuading him: "Master Hao, if you have something to say, talk to Master Qin slowly. This is the office, too much noise is not good for anyone. Calm down, calm down first. "

Hao Ruhai's eyes were red, so he couldn't calm down.He threw Jiang Yifan and Li Zheng away with all his strength, and rushed forward, but was blocked by the imperial guards maintaining order.

Looking at the shining sword that had been unsheathed, and listening to the ban of the imperial guards, he couldn't get close to Qin Hao, let alone take back the account book.

What can I do?If he could get the account book and destroy it, even if he himself was beheaded on the spot, at least he didn't ruin the prince's business.

Hao Ruhai looked like a madman. After being forced back two steps by the forbidden army, he was pulled back by Jiang Yifan and Li Zheng, which was even more urgent.He shook off the grip of the two of them again, found a gap, and rushed over with all his might.

In his last consciousness, as long as he got the booklet, or tore it, bit it, swallowed it, or destroyed it in any way, as long as it didn't fall into the hands of the emperor, his family would be able to save their lives.

Then, in a panic, he seemed to have misjudged the direction, and slammed his head against a stone pillar on one side, and fell to the ground on the spot, bleeding profusely from the top of his head.

Everyone was stunned.

When the crown prince was called up by Yu Shiqing, who was pale-faced, the three inspection officials headed by Qin Hao had already led several clerks under him, and they left the household department before they even had time to organize their things.Protected by the imperial guards, he turned a corner and went to the pavilion not far away.

"What, what? Hao Ruhai's account book was, taken away by Qin Hao? Are you sure, that account book was taken away?"

As soon as the prince heard from Yu Shiqing that the account books appeared in the household department and fell into the hands of the inspection officials, he immediately jumped up from the reclining chair.Grabbing Yu Shiqing, he immediately turned pale and asked tremblingly.

At this time, there was no one else in the room, even the boy in front of the prince was sent by Yu Shiqing to guard the door.

Yu Shiqing nodded, shook his head again, and said dejectedly: "I didn't see it with my own eyes, and I'm not sure if it's the account book. But the officials present saw Hao Ruhai's behavior like crazy, so I guessed that it was the account book." This account book. For some reason, the account book hidden in Hao Ruhai's home was mixed with other account books of the household department, and he gave it to Qin Hao and others. If it wasn't for that account book, he would risk his life for no reason. snatch."

Yu Shiqing is not at all lucky now, he only hopes that the crown prince can find a way to let the emperor look at the relationship between their father and son, and deal with this matter lightly, so that he can save his old life.

"This useless bastard, I thought he was reliable. If I had known that he was so useless, I shouldn't have used it that day, and let him die on the road of exile." The prince said through gritted teeth.

This Hao Ruhai followed the prince in his early years, and he was just a small official on the periphery.Later, he was involved in a case and was almost exiled. It was the prince who came forward to exonerate him, and became the prince's confidant.

The prince grabbed Yu Shiqing even harder, and asked in a low voice: "Isn't that thing not allowed to be taken out? Isn't it hidden in a hidden place in Hao Ruhai's mansion? Why did it appear here? Where is that bastard now? Go ask What the hell is going on with him?"

Yu Shiqing shook his head unconsciously, and murmured: "He fell into a coma after hitting the post, and is waiting for the imperial doctor to come to treat him."

The crown prince dropped Yu Shiqing's arm, and cursed: "Idiot! What time is this, are you still waiting for the imperial doctor? Hurry up and find ice water, and wake him up for questioning first!"

　It will be New Year's Eve in two days. Happy New Year everyone.
