Mrs. Shizi, she is both wise and brave

Chapter 56 Lawless
"Does His Majesty know nothing about it?" After a long silence, she asked in a low voice.

Shen Lingze sneered: "From top to bottom in Taihe Province, officials big and small are colluding with each other. Anyone who dares to object will be suppressed immediately, and even his life is in danger. Who dares to report to the Holy One."

"Is it possible that the Overwatch Council has also been kept in the dark? What does the supervisory censor of Taihe do?" Su Jingning felt a little heavy, "Or did they also get along with each other?"

There is an Inspectorate in this dynasty, which is responsible for the national supervision work. There are thirteen departments corresponding to the thirteen provinces.

Shen Lingze didn't answer, but instead asked: "Miss Su, does anyone know who the chief envoy of Taihe Province is?"

Su Jingning shook her head.

Shen Lingze said in a deep voice: "It's the in-laws of the Bo family, the head of the Wang family, and the uncle of Concubine Bo, Wang Chun."

Su Jingning's eyes gradually darkened.

However, Shen Lingze sneered: "The Seventh Prince's family is very powerful. Although Song Chang, the censor of the right capital, is aware of the corruption of Taihe Dao, he has always been cunning and does not want to offend Shen Xi. He just pretends not to know about it."

The inspectorate is divided into left and right departments, and the left department stays in the capital. For example, Mu Xiuzhu, who is the censor of Zuoqian capital, will be on duty in the inspectorate.The right department admirals each way and pickets the place.

Su Jingning immediately understood that Taihe Province had covered herself tightly, and the Inspectorate had also pretended to be deaf and dumb. Now the Holy Majesty has covered his eyes and ears, so he doesn't know anything about it.

However, since Wang Chun belongs to the Seventh Prince, he is naturally Su Jingning's enemy, no wonder Shen Lingze dared to show her the account book.

If this major corruption case can be exposed and Wang Chun removed, it will be like breaking the arm of the Seventh Prince, and his strength will definitely drop a lot.

She was shocked: "Why didn't the son directly present this account book to the Holy One?"

Shen Lingze lowered his eyes and said: "Wang Chun belongs to Shen Xi's party. If there is a trouble, Shen Xi will be implicated. The Holy One has always loved him. If he knows this matter, he will deal with it quietly. This is not the result I want."

In fact, he didn't finish his words. Today's sage is old and unable to do what he wants to do with the government, so he always likes to play tricks of checks and balances. In order not to let the prince's family dominate, the princes restrict each other. It will move Shen Xi.

Su Jingning smiled wryly, she had forgotten this, it is really difficult for the seventh prince to have the protection of the current emperor.

However, she turned her eyes to Shen Lingze. Since he came to her with something, he must have a solution.

Thinking of this, she immediately asked: "What good plan does your son have?"

Shen Lingze smiled and said, "Since the Holy Majesty doesn't want to make a big fuss, let's start with small things first."

Su Jingning's heart moved, it was not easy to be vigilant when it was a small matter, and then it gradually became a big one, and when everyone knew about it, even the Holy Majesty could no longer cover it up at will!
Shen Lingze saw that she understood, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he directly picked up the official document brought beside him and opened it: "Miss Su first compare the seals on these official documents."

Su Jingning leaned over to see that it was a collection document issued by the household department.

"Over the years, the Tatars have been making disturbances in our northern border, resulting in wars from time to time. Taihe Province has taken on the task of supplying military supplies. This is a conscription order." Shen Lingze explained.

Su Jingning nodded and compared these seals carefully.

The official seal of this dynasty was cast by the Casting and Printing Bureau. It is a copper micro-seal with nine stacks of seal characters. The seal is simple and thick, with complex lines and extremely difficult to imitate.

She looked at the incense sticks for a while before she raised her head and said, "These seals are the same except for the degree of newness and oldness."

Shen Lingze was not surprised, and he didn't find any difference.

"Although the seals are the same, some are real official documents, while others are forged."

Su Jingning nodded, and the content of several of the orders coincided with those in the account book, which were obviously forged.

But how can the seal be forged so similar?

She thought for a while, then suddenly raised her head: "Could it be that the Bureau of Casting and Printing created the official seal privately?"

Shen Lingze raised his eyebrows slightly, but Su Jingning actually hit the nail on the head.

A little girl in a boudoir with such quick thinking is much better than those idiots in court who can only eat dry food.

He restrained his mind and nodded, "It was the Bureau of Casting and Printing that secretly forged the official seal of the Ministry of Households, and Wang Chun used this to forge a fake official document to collect military supplies from the people under his rule."

"This is lawless! Even the official seal is made privately." Su Jingning let out a sigh of relief.

Shen Lingze said: "How to forge official documents without privately forging official seals, they just want to make them look like the real ones, so they are not afraid of checking.

Although the Ministry of Household Affairs has other records, the Holy Majesty will not order verification at will without evidence. "

Su Jingning was also a little helpless when she heard the words: "Since this is the case, isn't it helpless?"

Shen Lingze shook his head, with playful eyes: "They can fake it, so can we."

Su Jingning was stunned when she thought about his purpose of looking for her, and she suddenly understood: "You mean to ask me to imitate another official seal?"

Shen Lingze nodded with a smile: "I just want to ask Ms. Su to imitate a slightly flawed official seal, and then make a fake official document and submit it to the Holy Majesty as evidence."

Su Jingning immediately understood: "A fake official document will not attract the attention of the Holy Majesty, and there will be an excuse to inquire about it. When the time comes, the trouble will grow slowly, and no one will be able to control it."

Shen Lingze looked over approvingly, it was much more comfortable to talk to smart people.

"Okay, I'll make the seal right now." Su Jingning stared at the seal on the official document and thought about it for a while before agreeing.

It would be difficult for her to make one that is exactly the same, but it is not a problem to make one with a slight difference.

Just do it, Su Jingning immediately took out her toolbox and started to work.

She first found a Qingtian stone of suitable size to polish the printed surface, and then began to copy the printed manuscript.

Nian Yu rubbed the ink aside.

Under the dim light, the little girl was busy in an orderly manner, with full seriousness and care on her fair face.

Shen Lingze suddenly relaxed, and felt that his heart gradually became quieter. After watching for a while, he simply leaned over to observe carefully.

Su Jingning's mind was completely immersed in the seal cutting, she copied several copies in a row before choosing the one she was most satisfied with, and after the watermark was placed on the stone, she was ready to start carving with a knife.

Shen Lingze has also dabbled in this a little bit, but he has seen some tricks. Su Jingning's swordsmanship is extremely accurate and skillful, and it seems that she has formed her own unique theory of swordsmanship.

Unknowingly, his mind was also drawn into it.

Nian Yu on the side was a little depressed, all her work was taken away by this Mr. Shen.What's more, what he did was very serious. Whenever the young lady's eyes saw it, he could immediately react and pass things over in a timely manner.
