The emperor's plan: to rule the world

Chapter 1163 Ascertained Situation

"The magistrate of Ganzhou Prefecture is honest and honest. He never accepts bribes, nor does he allow his subordinates to accept bribes. The people in the government office can't get much money except the salary of the imperial court. At this time, it's time to pay taxes. Someone secretly advised the master to raise the tax by [-]%, and the extra [-]% could fill the hole in the gambling house for his brother-in-law."

Qin Shu's brows were cold, and as he listened, he became so angry that he calmed down.

Is there such a reason?
Just because one person owes money to the gambling house, so many people are required to help pay off the debt?
"This master...is a distant cousin of the wife of the Wenyuan Pavilion University scholar. The relationship is not particularly close, but with the name of this cousin, even the magistrate has always been courteous to him."

"A distant cousin?"

The man said: "It has nothing to do with the people in our Audit Department."

"Who is the person who gave him support?"

"It has not been found out yet, please forgive me, Your Highness."

"The magistrate can come here tomorrow. According to the news from Fucheng, the master has already been sent to prison. Other specific matters need to be interrogated in detail before we can find out."

Qin Shu hummed.

"As for the commander of the Audit Department, he really didn't know, but he didn't want to find out, so it became what it is now."

"The tax increase order was handed down by the master in the name of the magistrate. For specific matters, His Highness can wait until tomorrow to ask the magistrate."

Having said so much in one breath, the man obviously didn't care about the face of the people around him.

No matter what his thoughts were, the duty of the inspectors was to inspect, but he obviously did not fulfill his accusation.

Qin Shu couldn't see what was going on in the yard, but he could hear the silence around him, obviously waiting for him to make a decision.

Qin Shu didn't think long and made a decision quickly.

The commander of the inspection department like this cannot be kept.

In the silence, Gu Qingyi opened the door with a bamboo basket and walked in. Seeing the scene in the yard, she raised her eyebrows slightly and asked lightly, "What happened to make you unhappy?"

Qin Shu stood up, eyebrows curved: "Your Majesty."

The person kneeling in front of him suddenly trembled like chaff.

His Majesty?

His Majesty is actually here?

Gu Qingyi's eyes swept across the yard lightly, without any turmoil in his expression: "You don't need to keep those who are useless. With me here, you don't need to have any scruples."

He didn't even ask a question, obviously he already knew what happened.

Qin Shu frowned: "But, where the Grand Scholars..."

"How much face do you think the grand maester has to save this person?"

"Even if he really has such a big face, does he dare?"

Gu Qingyi tilted her head slightly, and said softly: "Seeing that your master is not feeling well, and still bothering him with these things, I want you to use it as a display?"

The shadow guard in the open and in the dark knelt down again in an instant.

Qin Shu said helplessly: "Your Majesty, don't be so unreasonable. They can't hide such a big matter from me. Moreover, I asked to see the person."

Gu Qingyi raised her hand, pressed Qin Shu's shoulder and pressed him to sit on the chair: "Then what did you ask? It's a cover-up charge. Although such a charge is not a big deal, the Auditor is It is absolutely intolerable.”
