The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1574
But now, there is a problem with the ledger. I searched around the accountant, but nothing is wrong. Although Li Tai is not in a hurry, he can't let this matter go like this. This is the money of the academy, it is the students If you want to use the money earned from your hard work, you should also spend it on the affairs of the students and the academy. This is inexplicably less, what is this?
At this moment, there was a knock on Li Tai's study door.

"Come in." There was a little impatience in Li Tai's tone.

The door of the study was pushed open by someone from outside, who walked in.

"Your Highness, please see Duke Xuan and Princess Jinyang outside."

Li Tai quickly took his legs off the table and straightened his sitting posture.

"Let them in," Li Tai said.

"Yes." The man responded, then exited the study to invite Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang into the study.

The accountant in the study secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his expression relaxed, but he did not escape Li Tai's eyes.

"Do you think this king will let you go?" Li Tai said with a smile: "It just so happens that Xuan Shijing is also here. Anyway, he is the vice president of the engineering college. This king also wants to ask him about this matter. How to deal with it, where the money that is missing in the account has gone, just let him, a master, check it out."

As soon as Li Tai said this, cold sweat dripped down the accountant's forehead.

He really didn't know about the account book, and he didn't do anything about it. Even after he tried his best to check it, he couldn't find any results. Who knows what's going on?

However, there is a problem with the account, no matter whose account is broken, as the manager of the account, he cannot escape the responsibility.

At this time, Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang also entered the study.

"It's really a coincidence. Sizi and I went for a stroll in this academy to eat and drink, and we happened to meet you in the academy." Xuan Shijing laughed.

"Fourth brother, what's the matter?" Jinyang asked when he saw that the atmosphere in the study room was a bit off.

"You guys came just in time. There's something wrong with the academy's accounts, and the accounts can't be balanced. So far, we haven't found out what's going on with the accounts," Li Tai said.

"Is there something wrong with the account book?" Xuan Shijing frowned, looking at the head accountant standing in the study.

It is estimated that if you ask him now, you can't say anything, otherwise Li Tai would not let him stand here for so long.

Xuan Shijing and Jin Yang found a place in the study and sat down.

"Where's the ledger?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"It's here." Li Tai signaled the guard beside him to send the ledger to Xuan Shijing. The guard took the ledger with the problem on the table and handed it to Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing opened the account book, browsed it roughly, but found nothing wrong with the account book, and then looked through the account book carefully.

After more than a quarter of an hour, Xuan Shijing finished reading the ledger. Indeed, there was something wrong with the ledger. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it. Each ledger is not much missing, but when the accounts in the whole ledger add up, there is a gap. But it's big.

Xuan Shijing closed the ledger and threw it on the table next to him.

"When did you find out?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"I checked the accounts this morning." Li Tai said, "If I don't come to the academy to check the accounts today, I'm afraid it will continue.

Xuan Shijing read the time recorded in the account book, from two months ago to three days ago, there were problems.

And for such a long time, the chief accountant didn't see any flaws. Does it mean that the bookkeeper is well concealed?Or do you want to say that the manager of the accountant is not doing anything?
"Investigate! This matter must be investigated!" Xuan Shijing said sharply: "This is an engineering college! It is a serious college. In the college, except for the teachers, there are only a few students. He is a worker, the academy should be a place of righteousness, but such a thing happened, it is completely in the dark for the academy!"

"Little Jing, please don't be angry." Seeing Xuan Shijing being so serious, Li Tai hurriedly tried to comfort her.

Xuan Shijing shook his head when he heard the words: "It's very angry to be angry, but I didn't lose my mind because of it. This matter must be strictly investigated."

"So, do you need the government to intervene?" Li Tai asked.

"Family ugliness should not be publicized, and there is no need for the government to intervene. I just live in Chang'an these few days, and I have nothing to do. Let me do this. His Royal Highness Wei Wang, you are still coordinating the engineering college, but recently, As for the academy, His Highness needs to pay more attention."

Li Tai nodded: "Yes, I know."

I was careless before. Originally, the accounts should be checked once a month. If I checked the accounts of the academy every month, this kind of thing would not happen. At least once this happened, I would be able to find out .

After all, he, the dean, also has some responsibilities.

But now it is obviously not a matter of who is responsible. At the moment, the most important thing is to find out this matter first, and then pursue what should be investigated.

Jin Yang sat quietly in the study, listening to her husband discussing this matter with her brother, she would not interfere in this matter, it was a college matter, and it was also a serious matter.

"Until the matter is clarified, all the people in the accounting room are not allowed to leave the academy. The accounting room is sealed up and they are asked to move to another courtyard in the academy." Xuan Shijing said.

Li Tai nodded: "Okay, if that's the case, I'll dispatch a group of guards from my residence to watch over the academy."

"That's it." Xuan Shijing said.

This matter is not a trivial matter in the academy, and it all involves a problem of character. Once such a person is found out, not only will he be sent to the government for strict punishment, but the academy will also record it on his own. Well, it doesn't matter if it's his family members, as long as they are relatives, the academy will no longer be used.

Once you do this kind of thing, it is equivalent to cutting off your own future on the side of the engineering college, not only your own, but also your family and relatives.

After all, from the establishment of the Institute of Engineering to the present, the control of the Institute of Engineering is very strict. Even if it is delivered from outside, it will be delivered to the gate, and then the students in the institute will move in. Outsiders cannot enter. Anyone who does such a thing must be a traitor.

It is difficult to guard against house thieves by day and night, and now that there is a problem with the accounting book, it is difficult to guard against house thieves. The biggest suspects are these gentlemen in the account room.

He couldn't even run away with the head accountant, he had to be investigated by Xuan Shijing.

Coincidentally, Xuan Shijing now has plenty of time to investigate this matter. Before the matter is clarified, all accounting issues here will be managed by the accountant in the Princess Mansion from today on.
