The metaphysics princess fortune-telling spirit, the abstinent and cruel king is addicted to pets

Before the eunuch could bring up the incriminating evidence, the poor official's body was already weakened, and he collapsed halfway.

Because they all knew that Ye Siheng either said nothing or did nothing, or he meant it.

The eunuch came forward with a booklet and handed it to the adults.

Among them, Mr. Jin's is an inch thicker.

No one dared to answer.

Ye Siheng held the teacup, blew on the foam, and said slowly, "Take a good look and check to see if there are any mistakes or omissions. This king should not have wronged you."

Still no one dared to answer.

Perhaps it means that they don't want to watch it, and it seems that they can live for a while longer.

Ye Siheng became impatient, and raised his eyes to give them a cold look.

This frightened the humble officials.

They hurriedly took it, just glanced at it casually, but their faces were pale and their bodies were trembling even more.

Not only in the last two years, but even the fact that they received 100 taels ten years ago is registered!

Mr. Jin quickly flipped through a few pages, then prostrated himself on the ground: "Your majesty, spare your life! Your lord, spare your life! This humble minister is just...just fascinated by ghosts for a while!"

Others also hastened to plead guilty and intercede for themselves.

The eunuch took back the paper and presented it to Emperor Mu Wu for review.

At first, Emperor Mu Wu wondered why they were so terrified, but after a cursory look, he broke the book and said, "Okay! A servant of the Ministry of Punishment can be greedy for 20 taels! Not to mention you, Jin, Over the years, 30 taels have been confiscated in the household department!"

Li Bin was stunned, almost unbelievable.

Because these humble officials usually have the cleanest style of work, and their food and clothing are all ordinary, and they still look like they are doing things for the people.

But they have been greedy for so much money!
Ye Siheng didn't forget to make up the knife:

"It's not important. In this snowstorm, the household department really didn't have any money. Mr. Cao Ge took the lead in asking the officials to donate some money, but for them, my king said that this donation can be anonymous, but you Don't appreciate this opportunity."

"I don't even need to look through the list. I remember how much you donated. Donate three to five hundred taels each to send off the emperor! It's really a crime that deserves death. It should be ransacked and exterminated."

Having said that, Emperor Mu Wu's face turned livid with anger.

Seeing this, Ye Siheng hurriedly asked the head eunuch to bring a cup of ginseng tea, "Brother Emperor, don't be angry, they have been used to being clean and honest all these years, and they are watched by the Overwatch Council, so they don't dare to spend their money. The silver jewelry is either hidden in the other garden, or stored in your own basement. You can send someone to count it later, and just move it back to the treasury."

Emperor Mu Wu took a sip of ginseng tea and nodded: "Yes, because of these bastards, it's not worth it to be so angry."

But Master Jin and the others couldn't stop kowtowing, and made a thumping sound:

"Your majesty! My lord! I know I was wrong! I am willing to donate all my silver!"

Emperor Mu Wu said: "When death is imminent, I am willing to take out the silver. What did you do earlier?!"

When he remembered that he had exhausted his efforts to raise money for disaster relief earlier, and couldn't sleep at night, he was so angry that his chest hurt.

But what about them?

Donate three 500 taels?
Some even donated only 100 taels!

It's really disgusting!
He waved his hand and said, "Drag it on, let the Overwatch Council strictly investigate and deal with it!"

None of these people can survive.

As for the members of his family, even if they can escape the catastrophe, they will not escape the fate of exile.

They are the light of the family, but after today, they are the shame of the family, and they will suffer endless abuse.

Mr. Jin and others are still struggling to plead for themselves.

Before Habayashi Wei dragged them down, he also gagged their mouths to prevent them from continuing to scream.

There are only three or five remaining poor officials.

Their official positions vary from big to small.

It's not that I haven't been greedy, but that I don't have much money.

But at this moment, their complexions are already pale, and they are covered in cold sweat, as if they will fall if the wind blows.

They didn't dare to look up, they were still waiting for Ye Siheng's trial.

Unexpectedly, Ye Siheng asked, "Are you going to play the impeachment?"

Several people froze for a moment, then raised their heads to look at Ye Siheng.

It took a while to react.

It turned out to be about Li Bin.

An official hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my lord, I have done some stupid things over the years, I have to go back to the mansion immediately to take stock!"

He didn't want to care about the trivial matter of impeachment.

Others said the same thing.

Ye Siheng was very satisfied, and his eyes became gentler: "This king sees that you are sincerely serving the court and the people, and the money you receive is not much, so this king didn't take out your banknotes. Fortunately, This king is not mistaken, you know how to advance and retreat."

He ordered them to move the money to the Overwatch Council until late at night, so as not to be seen by others and damage their reputation.

Several people wiped the cold sweat off Jiji's forehead, and were moved by Ye Siheng's thoughtfulness and protection. They were grateful at the moment.

The officials almost scrambled back home.

Emperor Mu Wu saw that they had retreated, so he asked, "Ninth Brother, how much have they been greedy for?"

"Three to fifty thousand taels."

Emperor Mu Wu's face changed again: "Three or fifty thousand taels?! You just let them off like this? Why didn't you discuss it with me! Do you still have my brother in your eyes?!"

As the saying goes, a penny is hard for a hero. The previous snow disaster was only 1 taels, and he would have a headache for two or three days.

Ye Siheng said helplessly: "Brother Emperor, let's give people some way out, they're all killed, who else can order you, the emperor."

Emperor Mu Wu was stunned for a moment before calming down, "You are right."

He was holding his breath in his heart, and was a little confused for a while.

Since they are all officials in the imperial court, it is normal for them to get some money for their retirement. The amount is not too large, and the previous emperors are not very good at it.

After all, one has to eat enough to have the strength to work.

If you push people into a hurry, it is easy to cause accidents.

Those in power should be relaxed.

Li Bin underneath was quite disturbed.

Is this something he can hear?
But without the permission of Emperor Mu Wu and the Ninth Prince, he couldn't retreat.

At this moment, Emperor Mu Wu finally remembered that there was another Li Bin. He looked over and sighed softly: "Li Bin, your father has done a lot for the country and the people over the years, so you don't need to be too cruel, just go and see him occasionally. Him."

Half of Cao Ge's disciples fell. According to his character, he will either work to the death in the future to save his reputation, or ask him to resign and go back to his hometown to retire.

Li Bin bowed his hands and said, "I would like to follow the emperor's instruction."

As for whether to go or not, that's another matter.

Ye Siheng and Li Bin left the side hall together.

Although Li Bin was a little scared, he still stepped forward to thank him: "Thank you, my lord, for saving the siege today. I am very grateful."

"It's just a coincidence." Ye Siheng looked at him, "Mr. Cao Ge treats you like this, you can keep your original intentions, and even help your second brother to open an academy together for those poor children to study. It's really not easy." (This chapter over)
