Rebirth of the drama: Ben Gong just wants to be salted fish

Chapter 319 Queen's Audit
Rong Jiao wandered around the imperial dining room, and what she did soon spread throughout the city, not only the palace, but everyone knew that the empress had come forward to make decisions for those who were often bullied, even the life of the abandoned concubines in the cold palace. Both have been greatly improved, so everyone has become a real thought to thank the Queen.

Rong Jiao is now walking outside, and when she meets those palace ladies on the way, the eunuchs' eyes can see the expression of gratitude from time to time.

"Fu Xin, did I do something extraordinary that they would remember in their hearts? Those who don't know would think that this palace did something extraordinary that made them so grateful to Dade?"

She herself couldn't figure out where the respect in those people's eyes came from.

"The empress thinks too much. Recently, many people in the palace used to have enough to eat, but now they can not only eat enough, but also save a lot. There are many people who have never had enough to eat, and now they have three meals a day. , are all thanks to the empress, can they not be grateful to you?"

Fu Xin feels comforted seeing the empress's resolute actions. Thanks to the empress's actions, the people in the palace gradually get better.

Rong Jiao rolled her eyes. The reason why she did this was because she remembered that those people in the cold palace could only eat rotten leftovers, but how much wasted on weekdays. Besides, public expenditure has never If it's less than a penny, she just wants to get a return for the money spent.

"If they are grateful to Ben Gong just because they are full of food, if they don't spread bad things about Ben Gong on weekdays, then it will be the real repayment!"

She didn't feel that she had done such a great thing, but felt that it was just something she could do casually.

"The empress doesn't know that the emperor is always in charge of the affairs of the previous court, and he is always busy. The affairs of the harem were already like this when Concubine Jin came to take charge of the affairs of the harem. As time goes by, the power in the palace now Everyone knows that it is in the hands of the empress, but recently the empress has become different from before. She is gentle and considerate, and she seems to be a master who is easy to fool. ah!"

Fu Xin has endured a lot of hardships, and she is also the most transparent.

"It turned out to be like this. It's only my fault that I didn't make a move before. That's why those people thought that the money in the palace was easy to get. After all, it made them happy for a long time."

Rong Jiao never thought that what she did just because of a sudden whim would bring about such earth-shaking changes to others.

"Since this is the case, let's go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ask them to hand over the account books. The palace has to carefully check the past two years' turnover, and also regulate the expenses in the palace. Unexplained expenses want to come soon. Two years must be a lot, and we have to rectify it properly to let others understand that the oil and water in the palace are not so easy to fish for."

He knew it, but he didn't want to intervene in many things, just because it was too complicated, but now that he was a queen, he had many things to avoid, and he couldn't solve the problem at all.

Fu Xin accompanied the Queen for a walk to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, probably only checked the account books for the past two years, and found that there were many loopholes in it.

Although it looked like they were all in and out of the accounts, he found the loopholes in it at a glance.

Eunuch Xiao, the chief eunuch, stood by and looked at the uncertain expression on the queen's face, and kept muttering in his heart.

The empress has been working hot for many years, they know very well what kind of person she is, except when she lost her temper and made her petty temper, when did she handle these things?

Being able to understand the books is already a great ability, and I am not afraid of her going to check the books at all.

It is precisely because of their understanding of the empress that they have no fear. All the books are just superficial, and they don't even mean to go back and delete them.

Rong Jiao knew that if these ledgers were really pursued, they would be evidence.

"Eunuch Xiao, I will give you another chance. Is there any problem with these books?"

Eunuch Xiao looked at the serious face of the queen, and thought in his heart that he had been in the palace for more than ten years, a few years before the queen entered the palace, so he knew the queen well.

Naturally, he will not be afraid of the queen's deterrence.

"If you go back to the empress, some of the accounts are real accounts, and there are no bad debts at all. There is absolutely no problem with the slaves as a guarantee to the head."

Rong Jiao narrowed her eyes slightly, and slammed the ledger in her hand on the table.

"no problem?"

"One hundred taels of gold is used to cast the gold hairpin, so I ask you where the gold hairpin is?"

Even if the gold hairpin made of white-faced gold is damaged, it will not be less than eight or nine catties, and even if it is discounted by six or seven catties, it is still a crown. These people are too greedy even if they want to be rich. Are you blatant?
Eunuch Xiao is gone, so he can't remember where the money went. There are too many corrupt accounts, and he can't recall it carefully, so he can only find an excuse at will.

"Returning to the empress, when Concubine Shen said that she has no face, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to cast jewelry for Concubine Shen. The hundred taels of gold among them is the golden crown cast for Concubine Shen."

Eunuch Xiao was neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, he spoke slowly, as if it really happened.

"I remember that Concubine Shen was abolished, and all his things have been filled into the treasury, so bring me the list, and I want to see if there is that golden crown?"

Rong Jiao is very sure that if there are bad debts, then there must be more than one sum. The cunning old fox seems to have a plan, and I am afraid that he has also made countermeasures. Do you really think that you are a vegetarian? Even small bad debts can't be seen, how can you be a queen? Woolen cloth?
Eunuch Xiao's eyes flickered, and then he asked someone to find the list.

"Empress, concubine Shen was very favored at that time, and the emperor would give generous rewards every once in a while. As a result, the empress's palace has a lot of money, and the golden crown must not be able to enter the concubine at all. Fucai guessed that it is very possible that the empress of the province will give that golden crown to someone else or give it to someone else."

"Things made of white gold are so valuable, so give them away? Don't bully me for not being in charge of the affairs of the palace all the year round, but don't forget that I am also the emperor's woman. The emperor bestows such a generous gift. It would be disrespectful to the Emperor if you want to make a full-time transfer to someone else, and if you want to have a deadly confrontation, it will not be just right, Shen Yingying is now in the palace of the concubine Liang, why don't you bring him here and let us confront him?"

Rong Jiao didn't believe it yet, how much thought it takes to deal with a stubborn old man.

"Then the empress made amends, slave..." Mr. Xiao realized offline that the queen had really come to check the accounts, and with his ingenuity, it was absolutely impossible to understand these accounts in the past. He thought it was just to scare himself. Be cliché.

But the empress's logical analysis made him know that the empress in front of him was no longer what it used to be.
