"Shen Shiyi, you are the Minister of the Internal Treasury, but you can't control the big warehouse of the household department. Hurry up and remove your people, otherwise the elders will come over in a while, be careful of your sixth-rank official status!"

Xie Qingshan pointed at Shen Shiyi and said sharply.

Shen Shiyi stood at the door of the Dacang of the household department, looking respectfully at Chen Hou who was beside him.

Chen Hou also stood up and blocked Xie Qingshan's hand. His Majesty asked him to come over, and that was the reason.After all, Shen Shiyi's position is low, so it's not good for conflicts.He is different, these people in front of him, one counts as one, who dares to bump into him?To be beaten by him is to be beaten in vain, who made him a marquis of super quality?In the past, there was no way for a civil servant to let this person hold the pen. Now, it is useless for anyone to come here on order!

"Xie Shangshu, Mr. Xie, this is His Majesty's order to let Shen Sicheng be responsible for the disposal of the new salt. If you object, go talk to Your Majesty!"

Xie Qingshan almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.He presented the map of salt making and sent his confidants to make salt. The results of his hard work are the time to make contributions and produce results.

Next, no matter whether the imperial court established a salt department or communicated with salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, as the minister of the household department who produced the salt making map, he was the first choice that could not be avoided.If he is in charge of these affairs, he will naturally be able to gather a group of people. At that time, he will have the right to have people, and salt, and salt is money. The road to the cabinet has been smooth.

Who knows?Shen Shiyi just took it away?
Xie Qingshan was so irritated by this reversal that he was speechless, he didn't dare to point at Chen Hou, and turned to look at Shen Shiyi, "Even if you are a nobleman, you can't take credit for others like this. Above all, who else will do their duty for the imperial court? Doesn’t His Majesty chill the hearts of our old ministers by doing this? Just wait, I’ll go to meet His Majesty right away, and let His Majesty give me an explanation!”

"Yes, I'll go with Master Shang Shu! There are laws in this court, and it's not for people to play around with!"

Xie Shangshu came in a hurry with the people from the household department, and then left in a hurry.

Chen Hou waved his hand, "In the past, they were high-ranking, with a noble appearance. I have long disliked them, and this time it is just to vent their anger."

From Shen Shiyi's place, all the new salt in the warehouse has been shipped out and handed over to Zuoling Xicheng.

Chen Hou is also an old fritter, after listening to Shen Shiyi's words, he smiled for a while, and gave a thumbs up, "Have courage, little fox."

Chen Hou looked at Xie Qingshan striding like a meteor, so excited that he staggered and asked Shen Shiyi to come.

"My lords, the elders just went to Qiande Hall to ask His Majesty about the big warehouse of the household department, but they haven't come back yet. I heard that His Majesty left a meal. I'm afraid they won't return until the end of noon."

Xie Qingshan put aside himself and shouted the slogan alone.

...

Shen Shiyi nodded, with a soft voice, "My grandmother's younger brother is my uncle."

Xie Qingshan was speechless, how could he have the confidence to go to His Majesty?
At the moment, pointing to Fuxi Pavilion, "The elders of the pavilion are our backbone, we naturally have to appeal to the elders first, and let them lead us to find justice!"

The so-called morale was exhausted again and again. At first, when everyone followed Xie Qingshan to Dacang Xingshi of the household department to question their crimes, they were resisted by Chen Hou and had no choice but to turn around.Now that the door was closed in Fuxi Pavilion again, everyone's spirits relaxed a lot, and the clamoring for justice to His Majesty was gone, and they only looked at Xie Qingshan.

Everyone in the household department rushed back and forth in the palace aggressively, and now, they are back in the office of the household department, sitting and writing notes.

"If I were you, I would bring those dozens of candidates to the court meeting, and expose Xie Qingshan's true colors in front of all civil and military officials! Let the world know that he is a shameless person who deceives the world and steals his name, and even wants to take credit for his own grandson. !"

Everyone in the household department was a little puzzled, and asked Xie Qingshan, the leader, to come.

As he said that, Shen Shiyi withdrew his gaze from looking at Xie Qingshan's back, and bowed his hands to Chen Hou who was beside him, "I also want to thank Chen Hou for coming forward, otherwise, there would be a conflict just now because of their large number of people."

"It has snowed too much this time, and I'm afraid there will be a thick layer tomorrow, which will affect travel. The salt is used to clear the snow on the road, and it can be regarded as a spare capacity."

"My lord, didn't we go directly to Qiande Hall to sue His Majesty? Why did you come to Fuxi Pavilion?"

Shen Shiyi shook his head, "The most important thing about new salt is circulation. Right now, the amount of new salt is small, and it is impossible to compete with the eight major salt merchants. The low official position makes it even less important in the eyes of salt merchants. Let Xie Shangshu come forward, after all Xie Shangshu has many supporters, and he is high enough, with a rough skin and thick flesh, to withstand the pressure of the salt merchants."

Everyone nodded after hearing this, "Your Excellency is right, let's go back and write the notes, and ask His Majesty for an explanation in public!"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Shiyi, really curious, "Listen to Your Majesty, this new salt production method was developed by you, so you are clear about the disadvantages of the new salt. If it were me, this time the Kyoto University The large-scale diarrhea incident, I will let it ferment. Now that you are standing up to challenge this matter in front of His Majesty, you should also take this opportunity to expose Xie Qingshan's hypocrisy, why give him room for it?"

Chen Hou has always looked down on some civil servants who can only talk empty talk and achieve nothing. Now that he knows that Xie Qingshan is in a high position but behaves poorly and is not upright, he will naturally despise him even more. If he hadn't taken care of Shen Shiyi, a delicate little girl, he would have said it on the spot. To spit it out.

"Is this your uncle?"

Xie Qingshan became even more guilty, and his spirit was also dissipated. Seeing that everyone's spirits had dissipated, he had no choice but to let him charge alone, he had no confidence.

Chen Hou was speechless when he heard it, it was really extravagant, he used salt to melt snow, if it was spread, others would not know how to discuss it.

Said that in the past, Xie Qingshan would not belittle himself and praise the elders in this way, but there is no way, he has no idea in his heart, and wants the elders to stand up for him.After all, Shen Shiyi was recommended by the fourth prince. If the fourth prince of Shen Shiyi Lane sued him, saying that he stole the salt making map, although he was not afraid of confrontation, the rumors would not stop there.Flaws in his reputation made his entry into the cabinet several times more difficult.

Chen Hou almost fell down when he heard Shen Shiyi's elegant words.Look at this little girl with delicate features and gentle features, how can she speak so directly?he likes.

Immediately, Xie Qingshan waved his hand, "Let's go back to the Ministry of Accounts first, write a petition, and submit it in public tomorrow morning, and let His Majesty give us an explanation. The large warehouse of the Ministry of Accounts is not something that people from the internal courier can touch!"

The scholar rebelled and failed for ten years.

There are many people from Kyoto, and it is a place without secrets.

The next day, along with the unprecedented extravagance of spreading salt and melting snow, there was also a rumor about the new salt from the Minister of the Household Department. It was said that it could not be eaten and would cause diarrhea.

"There is so much seawater in the sea, if drying salt can be done, why hasn't anyone done it since ancient times? It must not be imported. It's ridiculous that Xie Shangshu is rich and rich, and he has a high position and authority, but he can't think of the reason for this!"

"That's right, I heard that those few candidates originally wanted to curry favor with Xie Shangshu, but in the end, they were out of shape. It's freezing cold now. If they don't take good care of them, the spring of next year will be delayed, right? It's really delicious. A chicken can't be eaten without rice!"
