"God is pitiful, I am innocent!" Su Wen said loudly.

  Meng Hui snorted coldly: "The relationship is not clear, it's not that His Majesty has the final say, the concubine doesn't want to spend more than ten years or twenty years, and there are rumors among the people that there are princes hiding in the world.

  Until then, to correct His Majesty, it will be too late! "

  Su Wen glared at Han Tan, who was kneeling on the ground: "What are you doing here, didn't you hear the Queen tell you to find Lou Jing at 600?"

  Huaxiang Restaurant is one of the sites that Jinyiwei communicates with, so Su Wen and the others are talking here, and there is absolutely no possibility of leaking it out, and it is impossible for anyone to eavesdrop.

  Not long after, Lou Jing walked in in a hurry, and before Meng Hui could speak, Lou Jing was the first to bow down.

  "Qizuo Niangniang, this minister guarantees his life, Your Majesty and the people here have absolutely no personal relationship.

  The reason why Your Majesty often comes here is mainly to understand the real situation of the commercial operation of the entire Chang'an City through the operation of Huaxiang Restaurant. "

  Su Wen praised in his heart: "A scholar is a scholar, and his speech is different. Where is the idiot like Han Tan, he can't speak clearly, but he is getting more and more black."

  Meng Hui's eyes were a little hesitant, and then he said: "If this is the case, then this palace will no longer pursue it.

  The people in Jinyiwei look at it, this restaurant still smells of flowers, after all..."

  "Humph!" Meng Hui sneered: "Your Majesty already has a skin-to-skin relationship with others!"

  Han Tan touched the ground with his head, and said righteously: "How can your Majesty not take care of himself? How can such a person be qualified to serve His Majesty!

  Your Majesty, Your Majesty!Are you—are you going to be a fool? "

  Su Wen only felt his scalp numb: "Menghui! Why are you filthy of innocent people!".

Chapter 1030

  To be able to anger Lou Jing to the point of directly scolding the dazed prince, regardless of his own life and death, one can imagine how angry he is.

  Meng Hui coughed lightly: "Your Majesty was just kissed by Hua Xiang, and you Jinyiwei will be more optimistic in the future."

  After saying this, Meng Hui got up and left.

  Inside the house, two messy rulers and ministers were left.

  "Chen...I've lost my word!" Lou Jing crawls on the ground, cold sweat dripping down.

  Su Wen said helplessly: "Okay, remember what the Queen said, and look after me in the future. Who could have predicted that the fragrance of flowers would suddenly come?"

  Lou Jing just smiled bitterly, can you predict it, you don't know?When you were always fighting to kill the enemy, you were so strong, who would believe it?

  It's no wonder that the Empress is so unhappy.

  Su Wen said: "Be flat..."

  "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

  "The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, even if those rebellions are added together, at most someone calls me a fake emperor, and the ugly one is the dog emperor, the word faint, but this is the first time I have heard it."

  Lou Jing pretended to kneel down again to plead guilty.

  "Okay, as the emperor, of course, I know what kind of women can't be touched. I haven't fainted enough to only have my lower body... You inspected Chang'an City, what did you find?"

  Lou Jing wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and then said: "If it is found, there is nothing special.

  There were no rumors before that Liu Bang had secretly cooperated with the merchants in Chang'an City to conspire to cause chaos.

  Before our Northern Expedition, the minister had deliberately left many secret posts in Chang'an City, in order to keep an eye on this side.

  In the end, there was nothing, just being fooled. "

  "This time in Beidi County, all the money was made by the merchants, and when the army returned, the merchants got a lot of profits.

  Therefore, many people have already started sending money to the court ministers. The ministers have already made a list and will now present it to His Majesty. "

  Su Wen opened the list and looked at it, and couldn't help but say: "These people send money to court officials, the purpose is to accept their money and materials when the army goes to war? After the war is over, it will be a huge sum of money!" "

  "That's right." Lou Jing said: "As the commander of the Jinyiweidu, I have received a total of eight mansions after returning from the north, all of which are worth tens of thousands of taels of silver.

  In addition, there are white flowers and silver coins, which are more than [-] catties. "

  Su Wen tutted: "Silver is not calculated in taels, but in kilograms. It seems that I really underestimate the wealth of the world."

  One catty is ten taels, ten catties is one hundred taels, and one hundred catties is one thousand taels.

  In other words, Lou Jing had already received a bribe of [-] taels of silver.

  "Businessmen value profits, so when they do things, they will use all means, and they will not estimate ethics and morality."

  Lou Jing said: "This is because I have a nickname called Blood Hand Tu, and not many people dare to give me money. Otherwise, it is conservatively estimated that there are more than [-] taels, which is normal."

  "Check carefully, check every transaction clearly, and immediately arrest all the merchants who paid bribes. The ministers who have received the money should be arrested just as they should!

  I didn't want to lead the Tiger-Wolf Division to fight bloody ahead, but I protected such a group of insatiable villains. "

  "Your Majesty, calm down!" Lou Jing cupped his hands and said, "I haven't finished my words yet."

  "As things stand, almost all officials who received bribes donated their money to the treasury.

  Among them, General Meng Tian was the most, and he received more than one million taels of stolen silver.

  When His Majesty led the army in Beidi County, when he was not in Xianyang City, the convoys that sent money to the generals lined up several streets..."

  Su Wen glanced at the list again, and then said: "Have you checked it all? Are all of them donated to the treasury?

  You are staring in secret, will there be any mistakes? "

  "I dare to use the head of the item to guarantee that there will be no mistakes."

  Su Wen applauded: "Very good, you can follow this list to catch the bribe merchants, this is the first; the second, let the Ministry of Household reward all the stolen silver turned over to the state treasury to you. Minister.

  They have the heart to be strong and prosperous for me, how can I ask for something too much?

  It's just that the merchants have just started, and while showing great benefits, they also need to clear some things.

  Otherwise, this businessman will become a moth that corrupts my Daqin! "

  Lou Jing moved and said: "Your Majesty, many ministers quietly involved money into the treasury, and they wanted to make this a big thing and a small thing.

  What's more, the war is about to take place. With these merchants sending money, don't you want it for nothing? "

  "That's what I said, but what if one day, my ministers suddenly become tempted by the money of these merchants and do something that goes against their own principles?"

  Su Wen sighed: "This world is mine alone, but it's not mine alone.

  In this world, I am willing to share with you what you want and what I can get! "

  Lou Jing was so moved that he was shaking all over.

  What Su Wen said was the truth. After everyone had fought to the death, their feelings were no longer comparable to those of ordinary monarchs and ministers.

  "Your Majesty, this minister will go to run those merchants!"

  "Yeah!" Su Wen waved his hand: "Go, I will never tolerate those who are the initiators of bad ethos in the first place!"

  "Here!" Lou Jing bowed his hands and stepped back.

  Su Wen stood up, took out a golden pancake from his sleeve, threw it on the short table, and finally walked out slowly.

  The queen had disappeared, but Han Tan was waiting outside.

  "Father, where are you going now?"

  Su Wen looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting late, will you go back to the palace?"

  Han Tan said in a low voice, "Where is the Empress?"

  "Tonight I went to the Concubine Hui's Palace and leaned forward. If I continue to be in the Queen's Palace, there will be piles of posts from the officials, saying that I only favor the Queen, and that it is not conducive to the Daqin Royal Family's branches and leaves."

  Han Tan hurriedly said: "Although Yanguan hates it, buzzing like a fly, but he also said that (the king's) is right, the emperor will never let his anger."

  Su Wen got into the carriage, the curtains of the carriage were slightly slanted, and there was a breeze blowing in.

  "When I was arranging the spoils of war in Wuzhi City, I even took Yiqu City to rectify it.

  It is so rich that after the merchants have paid it, it is worth the total tax of my Daqin for the past three years! "

  "This is still without including the livestock of the Wu clan!"

  Su Wen applauded: "My dear, this wave of cutting leeks is good, I thought Zhang Liang was inciting Beidi County to riot, but he was really stabbing a knife in the lower back.

  I never thought, this is sending money to me, hahaha...."

  Han Tan also said happily: "This is God Bless Daqin, Emperor Hongfu!"

  At this time, Chen Sheng, the envoy of Jinyiwei Beizhen, rode a horse and quickly came to the side of the carriage, bowed his hands to Han Tan, and said in a low voice:

  "There is a report from the Governor of Laos, and it seems that Ren Xiao's deadline is approaching, and he asks to see the emperor for the last time.".

Chapter 1031

  "The old minister has been on the battlefield all his life. When he was in his prime, after General Tu Sui died in battle, he took over the important task of the Southern Expedition to Baiyue.

  After many years of hard fighting, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were damaged, and only then did the late emperor lay down the vast territory in the south. "

  "Now that I'm old, I feel that the deadline is approaching, and I can't repay the grace of the late emperor and His Majesty's long grace, and can only dedicate the topographic map of the southeast to His Majesty.

  I hope that His Majesty can recover the mountains and rivers as soon as possible, and praise my great Qin Shenwei! "

  On the sickbed, his face was as white as white wax, and the last rays of light were radiating from his turbid old eyes.

  Su Wen sat on the edge of the bed and quietly listened to Ren Xiao's words.

  The servants serving on the side quickly stepped forward and hung up Nuoda's map.

  Above is the topographic map of all the cities and passes in the three southeastern counties.

  "Don't worry, old general, I will definitely not let you down." Su Wen said softly, "Old general..."

  Ren Xiao had already closed his eyes slowly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

  The servants on the side knelt down instantly.

  For a while, the room was silent, and no other noise could be heard.

  Su Wen stood up and shook his head: "Does Ren Xiao have any children?"
