The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 592 Finding a Scapegoat
The other clansmen thought that they had his backing, not to mention intensifying their efforts, but they were blatantly brazen.In the end, he beat him a few times and said not to be too ugly, so he restrained himself a little.

But the emperor just waited and watched the changes, and did not attack.When the time comes, I guess they have a lot of silver, so let them hand it over.

It happened to fill the national treasury, and then severely sent off the clansmen, this is killing two birds with one stone.Not only gained fame, but also gained benefits.

Xia Qing couldn't help feeling cold all over, he had forgotten the emperor's cruel methods when he was young.

In recent years, the emperor is getting older and gentle, and he has gradually forgotten the emperor's scheming and cruelty.

But it can be seen from the case of Wan Xuenian and Song Shujing.

"My lord! Do you still remember that some officials visited you before, saying that your clansmen searched for people's fat and people's anointing?" He Zhongkuan glanced at the pensive Xia Qing, knowing that he had listened.

He didn't pay attention to Zhang Xiansheng's words, this is an idiot, he doesn't bother to care about it.

Before, he looked at this person as a bit scheming, and he was really on guard for a while.But after a few things later, he also saw it.

This person looks shrewd on the surface, but is actually a complete idiot.

He thinks that compared with such a person, his methods are still much better, so Zhang Xiansheng is not to worry about.

Xia Qing's face was livid, and as soon as he heard what Mr. He meant, he knew that the two of them wanted to go together.

"Mr. He! Do you want to say that the emperor has taken a fancy to the money in the official family?" Xia Qing turned around with his hands behind his back, and looked at He Zhongkuan.

Xia Qing's words surprised Li Wei and the others, and they all looked at He Zhongkuan with expressions of enlightenment.

None of the people here are stupid, of course they understand what these two people mean, they can't help but shudder.

It turned out that the emperor had already made plans so early. It is undeniable that when the emperor was young, his strategy was indeed extraordinary, otherwise he would not have sat on the throne.Even if there is the last emperor's edict, and he is still the prince, but which of the emperor's brothers seems to be related to him?

"Indeed! This is exactly what I mean!" He Zhongkuan nodded, and he saw that Xia Qing and the others had already understood that they were not stupid people, and they understood everything.

"Then what does the emperor mean? Do you want to rob the house?" Xia Qing couldn't help raising his heart again. What the clansman did had nothing to do with him, especially his connivance.

If the emperor wants to pursue this matter, he will also be implicated, and maybe lose his black hat.

"My lord! According to my guess, if the emperor wants to rob your house and take the opportunity to send you off, he won't wait until today. According to the present situation, the emperor is probably giving you a chance and wants you to hand over the money in person."

He Zhongkuan thought about it for a while, and felt that the emperor's intention should still be on the silver.As for dealing with the chief assistant, the emperor probably doesn't have such an idea yet.

In other words, it is still useful for the emperor to keep Xia Shoufu.

He Zhongkuan figured out the emperor's plan, but he didn't say it out.Shi Shiran just picked up the tea bowl on the table and took a sip, ignoring Xia Qing's questioning gaze.

Seeing this, Xia Qing's face darkened.This He Zhongkuan has some skills, and he has advised him several times, which has benefited him a lot.

This person can speak well, he still has some appreciation.It's just that He Zhongkuan has a shortcoming, that is, he likes to pretend to be a superior person. Whenever the matter comes to a critical juncture, he likes to take Joe, which makes him unhappy.

However, capable people usually have some tempers and unusual hobbies, and it is not easy for him to haggle over this person.

Xia Qingqing coughed, Li Wei has always heard the strings and knows the elegance.Seeing He Zhongkuan drinking tea leisurely, the corners of his eyes twitched.

This person really knows how to put on airs. Didn't you see Mr. Shoufu's complexion is very bad?What time is this?I can't wait to pretend, what are you pretending?
"I don't know if Mr. He has thought of any countermeasures? Could it be that the adults really offer the money?" Li Wei asked aloud, asking what everyone was thinking, and Xia Qing gave him an appreciative look.

"That's right! It's not that I'm reluctant to part with the money! It's just that this matter is not feasible. If you want to hand over the money, you have to hand over your clansmen. But if the clansman is punished by the government, it will inevitably implicate me. Isn't it worth the loss?"

At this time, Xia Qing didn't have to hide it.After all, it is well known that other people's people make money, and there is nothing to hide.

But if the money is handed over, it will be very unfavorable to him. Isn't this putting the handle in the hands of the emperor again?If the emperor really took the opportunity to send him off, and he didn't have time to prepare, wouldn't he have killed himself?

Even if the emperor keeps him, it is still useful, but there is no guarantee that he will not make any excessive demands on him.The matter of the side pay alone has already made him tired of dealing with it.

Besides, handing over all the money raided by the clansmen would be far from the military pay!

At this time, Xia Qing also felt remorse in his heart, and at the same time, he hated Gu Chengyu even more.If it wasn't for Gu Chengyu, why would he be so passive? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but blame Min Feng for not being up to date.

"Come here! Go and invite Ping Yun." Xia Qing and the others had figured out what the emperor meant just now, and now they only needed to find a solution.

This matter can be considered to have started because of Min Feng, calling him over now is just in time to listen to how they discuss and resolve it.This disciple is still too immature, it's time to let him go through some troubles.

Although Gu Chengyu was young, he could see that this person's city was no worse than those of their veteran ministers, even worse.

"My lord! If you really want to hand over the family's money, then there is really a way." He Zhongkuan thought for a moment, and said confidently to Xia Qing.

"Please ask Mr. He to clarify the confusion!" Xia Qing held back his temper and cupped his hands towards He Zhongkuan.

This action shows Xia Qing's sincerity, and He Zhongkuan also knows the truth of accepting as soon as it is good.

He hurriedly said seriously: "My lord! You might as well exterminate relatives righteously, find the most money-gathering person in the clan, and let him be the scapegoat of the whole clan. This will not only save the rest of your clan, but also give the emperor an errand. The most important thing."

He Zhongkuan smiled slightly, and continued: "You can still block the mouths of the people in the world, and let outsiders see that you won't cover up your clansmen and let them do evil! Isn't this killing multiple things?"

Min Feng went to the study in the outer courtyard with a feeling of apprehension.Before dinner, his senior brother had just returned from the mansion, and he felt a little uncomfortable.It seemed that the teacher still didn't believe him, and he was not called to discuss important matters.

Although he knew that he was inexperienced and his methods were too immature, but how many people are there who are naturally experienced in doing things?Isn't it out of experience?

He was fidgeting in the room, feeling a little apprehensive, afraid that the teacher would dislike him because of this incident.

Now the teacher asked someone to call him, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, which meant that the teacher hadn't given up on him yet.
