The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2056 Yonghui First Case

Li Chengqian said the last three words almost through gritted teeth.

The information and evidence I saw on his book case before, in black and white, are just books without emotion, but now, what I am facing is a living person, a living cry.

Because of this incident, Li Chengqian's anger had already reached a peak. The Xuanzheng Palace had already endured what should be smashed. Now, Li Chengqian is not so angry anymore.

Because, he doesn't care about the dead.

"Come on, carry it up!" Li Chengqian said.

After hearing Li Chengqian's words, two guards in the palace lifted up a large box and put it beside Li Chengqian.

"Do you know what this is?" Li Chengqian said: "This is criminal evidence. Regarding the case of Qianzhuang, Baiqisi Kuaima sent Chang'an's criminal evidence and case files from various prefectures of the Tang Dynasty. Many, shocking, what makes my heart hurt the most is not only the place, but also the city of Chang'an! The officials of the imperial court participated in it, and I never knew that the hands of all the lovers are so long. Why, the imperial court The salaries given to you are not enough! Or is the industry you run in Chang'an City not able to support you?"

Where would the imperial court allow officials to do business?But the matter of interests has never been something that can be accepted by a single order.

Officials do not do business themselves, but they have relatives, subordinates, and domestic slaves. These people can find two at random and put the property under their names. Isn't this the end of the matter?

With the support of court officials, how much advantage did those people take in doing business?

Because the same is true of the Xuan family.

Li Chengqian has long known the inside story of these business operations.

He loved strange things in his early years, where did the money come from, wasn't it the share he got from the Xuan family's chamber of commerce?

The imperial court doesn't care about such things, as long as it's not too much, it's up to them.

The people's hearts were not enough to swallow the elephant, and the court let it go. In the end, a bigger case was brought up, which was the case of Qianzhuang.

"After reading these files, I am heartbroken." Li Chengqian said in a sad tone, "The officials of my Tang Dynasty are such officials!"

There are five people and six people on the surface, but they are filthy behind the scenes.

"When I was still living in the East Palace, I often met my father in the Tai Chi Hall. My father always stood in front of me and praised Mr. Wei Zheng. I couldn't understand why my father was always angry with Mr. Wei Zheng. Are you still full of praise? Today I understand that the Tang Dynasty needs officials like Lord Wei, not only the father misses Lord Wei, but I also do the same."

In ancient times, Cao Cao cried and Dian Wei, but now Li Chengqian talks about Wei Zheng.

"About the Qianzhuang case, I already know it clearly in my heart, and everyone present here probably knows it better than me." Li Chengqian said: "I have already said in the court before that the Qianzhuang is related to the entire big family. Tang Minsheng is related to the country's finances, and this is a big matter, so you must be aware of it, this is your answer to me?" Li Chengqian pointed to the box and asked: "You didn't understand what I said so earnestly back then. If you hear it in your heart, then I can only change it to another method, let everyone remember, Lin'an, take the people under your command, open the box, and read it to me! If you can't finish reading, no one is allowed to leave today! In addition Listen, soldiers of the Zuowuwei Battalion, whatever is written in my imperial decree, you will do as you please!"

"Yes!" The soldiers of Zuowuwei Battalion in the palace agreed with one voice.

The lock on the box, the key is in Lin'an's hands, Lin'an opened the box in front of everyone, after opening the box, a whole box of books came into view.

On the top of the book, there are several imperial edicts.

"Read it." Li Chengqian said.

"Yes." Lin'an responded, and took out the first imperial decree. In addition, another little eunuch next to Lin'an took out a book from the box.

"There is a bank in Hangzhou. Since the 28th year of Zhenguan, the Hangzhou government took the lead in building it, and it has been built until the first month of the fourth year of Yonghui."

This booklet records the case of the Hangzhou Bank, and it took half an hour to read the long file.

If this continues, there are so many files in the box, when will I have to read them?

Many people below are so unpredictable.

However, the officials involved in the case of the Hangzhou bank did not feel so good standing underneath.

After reading the case of the Hangzhou bank, Lin'an held the imperial decree, took a step forward, and opened the imperial decree.

"Following the emperor's decree, it is said: The case of the Hangzhou bank has involved many people. In the case file, all the evidence is verified to be true. The case is now closed. The governor of Hangzhou is a dishonest official. The money in the bank is more than 810 million and [-] yuan, the crime is unforgivable, the family property is confiscated, the family is ransacked, and the family is exterminated. This~~~”

"Your Majesty!" As soon as the imperial decree was finished, a courtier stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, with only 800 million yuan, it's just ransacking the family and exterminating the family. Is the punishment too severe? You know, during the Zhenguan period"

"800 million yuan! It's only 800 million yuan. Aiqing is really arrogant." Li Chengqian said loudly: "I asked Aiqing, have you seen 800 million yuan? Cash."

"This minister has never seen it before."

"That's good, Fang Yiai!" Li Chengqian called out.

"The minister is here." Fang Yiai stepped out and bowed his hands.

"Take this lord to the Ministry of Households now, and let him see what 800 million yuan looks like." Li Chengqian said: "Take some soldiers from the Zuowuwei camp over there, and after watching it, bring them back. I haven't settled the bill yet, so I'll just wait here, and after he's finished with the 800 million yuan, let's move on to this case."

"Minister, obey the order." Fang Yiai responded, then turned her head to look at this person: "My lord, please come with me, all lords are still waiting, let's go back quickly?"

"This"

This person wanted to evade, but before he could evade, the soldiers from Zuowuwei Battalion came to him.

Now he is being driven to the shelves, and he can't push it anymore, so he can only go to the household department with Fang Yiai.

The Ministry of Households is in charge of the national treasury, and there must be 800 million yuan. As for the 800 million yuan, how much is it?He knew it when he saw it.

"My lords here, who else wants to know the concept of 800 million yuan?" Li Chengqian asked: "I can tell him."

The people below fell silent.

Stand up and speak now, aren't you courting death?
"Since everyone knows, do you have any other questions about my imperial decree?" Li Chengqian said, "If you have any questions, just speak up. Listen to me, I have all the explanations you want."
