The Most Powerful Man in the World

At this moment, Chu Yi directly revealed that the gold and silver items alone amounted to more than [-] million taels. As soon as this number came out, Baiguan was shocked.

Han officials, Sun Zhong and other officials standing behind several cabinet elders only felt their heads stunned, and their faces were full of disbelief.

Sun Zhong whispered softly: "More than [-] million taels, more than [-] million taels, how is this possible..."

"Impossible, how can there be so much gold and silver in such a small country of barbarians? It's fake, it must be fake!"

No wonder these officials did not believe it. Even if everyone knew about the existence of Iwami Silver Mountain, they had also seen as many as millions of taels of gold and silver that Yu Dayou escorted back.

Everyone can accept these. After all, it is a small country, isn't it? It's no problem to search for a few million taels of silver.

But more than [-] million taels, this is an astonishing figure, almost equivalent to the tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty for [-] to [-] years. Except for one or two percent of the people in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, they are all skeptical. .

Hearing a sudden burst of drinking, Baiguan was stunned, and looked at the white-haired old man who jumped out in astonishment.

Lu Zhi's eyebrows, hair and beard are white. He is over sixty years old in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and he can be regarded as a long-lived person. He fell to the ground in the palace before and lost his face, which made Lu Zhi even more for the servant. disgust.

For Chu Yi, Lu Zhi obviously would not have a good attitude. At this moment, he heard Chu Yi utter nonsense and bluntly brought back more than [-] million taels of gold and silver. Lu Zhi couldn't help the anger in his heart, and directly directed at Chu Yi Duan shouted: "Good you Chu Yi, you dare to deceive you, how dare you deceive you! Do you know the guilt?"

Chu Yi looked at Lu Zhi who jumped out with a half-smile, and looked at Lu Zhi with a look of disdain in his eyes: "Oh, isn't this Master Lu, please also ask Master Lu to make it clear, how exactly did Chu deceive the king? "

Lu Zhi pointed at Chu Yi and said, "Chu Yi, you lied about the military situation and made up the amount of loot. That's more than [-] million taels of gold and silver. I'm afraid that even the Ministry of Household's treasury may not have so much gold and silver. But you told us that the small country of the East Ying barbarian state has so much wealth, do you really think that we are ignorant?"

Seeing that Lu Zhi pointed at Chu Yi and cursed, Sun Zhong, Han Li and other officials all stood beside Lu Zhi with a look of approval, nodding their heads to create momentum for Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi said more and more excited, and finally said: "Manchu civil and military are not fools, you lied to Your Majesty, but you can't fool the eyes of Mancha civil and military, hahaha, more than [-] million taels, Chief Manager, even if you want to If you want to lie about the military situation, I should have some common sense, okay? If you say there are [-] million taels, even if it is tens of millions of taels, why do you make up such a large and astonishing number?"

"Yes, Chu Yi, do you know the guilt?"

Officer Han took a step forward and looked at Chu Yi with a righteous look.

Chu Yi glanced over Han Li and Lu Zhi, and then looked at those civil and military officials. To be honest, Chu Yi looked over, just by looking at the expressions of these civil and military officials, Chu Yi knew, not to mention Lu Zhi and the others. In fact, the civil and military officials did not believe what he said.

Putting himself in his shoes, Chu Yi couldn't believe it.

After all, when he got the account book that recorded the captured loot, Chu Yi couldn't believe it when he saw the figures calculated above, but now he can't blame the officials.

But for Lu Zhi and Han officials, Chu Yi took a step forward with a smile: "If you don't believe me, you might as well go check it out!"

His eyes lit up, and Lu Zhi said, "That's what you said. If it is determined that you lied to the emperor under our inspection, what would you do?"

Chu Yi glanced at Lu Zhi and the others with pity, and said slowly: "If you can really be sure that Chu has deceived the king, then Chu can spare a few of them!"

"what!"

"Bold Chu Yi, dare to threaten the important officials of the court!"

Chu Yi's sudden remarks startled Han Li, Sun Zhong, Lu Zhi and others, but looking at Chu Yi's solemn expression, Chu Yi was not joking with them at all, but. Really want to put them to death.

When they thought that Chu Yi wanted to kill them, Sun Zhong, Han Li, Lu Zhu and the others all turned ugly.

No one has the slightest doubt about whether Chu Yi has the ability to take their lives. There is a saying that Chu Yi will let you die at the third watch, and will never leave anyone to the fifth watch.

It was as if Chu Yi had transformed into the Son of Heaven. Obviously, once Chu Yi was targeted, it would definitely not end well.

It has to be said that Chu Yi is notorious for his murderous reputation. At this moment, Chu Yi's understatement has awakened many officials' memories of Chu Yi.

At the time when Chu Yi killed no one in the courtroom, no one dared to come forward, and the situation of dozens of dignitaries and high-ranking officials being killed seemed to be just yesterday.

Many officials had cold sweats on their backs. How could they forget that Chu Yi was ruthless when it came to killing people? After a year, they even forgot about this. It really shouldn't be.

If it were someone else who directly said that they planned to use the elders of the court, I am afraid that all the officials would have jumped out and criticized them. However, all the officials shrank their necks at this moment, as if they did not hear Usually, some officials even hide their figures subconsciously behind others, lest they be targeted by Chu Yi.

Chapter 2 Don't guess the emperor's mind! 【[-] more】

Cold sweat oozes faintly on the foreheads of Lu Zhi and the others, which shows what kind of pressure Chu Yi's remarks have brought to them.

Lu Zhi trembled all over, his eyes were full of horror, and he pointed at Chu Yi and said with a trembling voice: "Chu Yi, you... you are too deceiving!"

Chu Yi just looked at Lu Zhi lightly.

Sun Zhong gritted his teeth and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, you have to decide for the old ministers, Chu Yi, he has no respect for the emperor, even dared to threaten the important officials of the court directly in front of His Majesty, he still has Wang Fa in his eyes, but also His Majesty you ?"

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Sun Zhong and the others calmly, and in the expectant gazes of Sun Zhong and the others, he heard Zhu Houzhao say, "Da Compan is right, I believe in Da Compan!"

This fluttering sentence almost made Lu Zhi, Sun Zhong, and Han Li faint.

They thought that Chu Yi was so rude, the emperor would definitely be angry, and Chu Yi's power was already a serious threat to the imperial power.

The emperor should be very jealous of Chu Yi in his heart.

In the final analysis, this is the biggest support for Lu Zhi, Han Li, and Sun Zhong.

Although each of them considers themselves veterans, and there are many former officials in the court, they are not afraid of what the emperor will do to them, but they are not fools.

It's not a wise person's choice to jump out and fight against Chu Yi like this, but Lu Zhi and Sun Zhong firmly believe that Zhu Houzhao and Chu Yi's so-called relationship between monarchs and ministers is just a matter of time.

Perhaps in the past, the two rulers and ministers met each other, but it has been a year since Chu Yi traveled across the ocean, and Zhu Houzhao gradually became more powerful, and he became a little more imperial.

Lu Zhi and the others wanted to come. In the past, Zhu Houzhao relied so much on Chu Yi, and that was to use Chu Yi's power to regain power. Now that the power has been fully in the hands of the emperor, then the emperor must deal with Chu Yi's eunuch.

There are few emperors in the past dynasties who are willing to share their power with them. Obviously, Chu Yi's power has already threatened the authority of the emperor. The relationship between the two rulers and ministers is probably not so close.

As a courtier, it is natural to try to figure out the emperor's mind. As long as he caters to his wishes and helps the emperor except for Chu Yi's confidant, the glory and wealth of their descendants will be guaranteed.

As for why he was certain that the emperor and Chu Yi had lost their relationship, it was because they clearly angered the emperor yesterday, but in the end, the emperor let them go back to the house and ordered them to think about it behind closed doors.

Sometimes it's a mistake to think too much. Lu Zhi, Sun Zhong, Han Li and the others are too smart, so they overinterpreted the meaning of the emperor, thinking that it was a hint from the emperor to them, so early today Jump out and point at Chu Yi.

However, Zhu Houzhao's words directly shattered the guesses of Lu Zhi, Sun Zhong and other old officials. If Zhu Houzhao really broke up with Chu Yi, he would never have said such a sentence.

Now even the Son of Heaven is not on their side, Lu Zhi and the others glanced at the Son of Heaven with resentment, only to look at the Son of Heaven with an inexplicable look on his face.

Gritting his teeth, Lu Zhi looked at each other and immediately said, "Chu Yi, this is what you said. If there are not more than [-] million taels of gold and silver..."

Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "This king said that if there is no more than [-] million taels of gold and silver, this king will spare your life!"

Lu Zhi, Sun Zhong, and Han Li were considered fools. To repeat Chu Yi's old words, they fully realized that Chu Yi was clearly eyeing them.

Thinking of their actions in the palace yesterday, and then thinking that today Chu Yi had a different attitude towards them, even Lu Zhi and Sun Zhong were slow to react and realized that Chu Yi had already received the news of their entry.

A group of civil and military officials watched this scene, and many people looked at Sun Zhong, Lu Zhi and the others, and then looked at Chu Yi, and their eyes could not help showing a bit of sarcasm.

I just heard an official sneer with a bit of disdain: "Rely on the old and sell the old, eat the ancients, but don't think about how Chu Yi got the name of the killing god."

"Chu Yi never kills people overnight. Sun Zhong and several others dare to intercede for those who assassinated Chu Yi. Isn't this a clear sign that they are not happy!"

"Haha, this is the style of Director Chu!"

"The teacher is confused..."

Under the gazes of a crowd of civil and military officials, Lu Zhi and the others, who had come to their senses, realized that they had no way out at this moment. , or Chu Yi seized the opportunity to win.

Seeing the changing expressions of Lu Zhi and the others, Chu Yi felt no waves in his heart.

As a senior in the court, Chu Yi did not want to take these people down. The key point is that these seniors have high prestige. When Chu Yi killed too much, people in the court were panicked, but they had to keep them. People come to stabilize the court.

Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao are not the kind of people with a nature to kill. Since these officials are left behind, they are given a chance to reform.

However, Chu Yi and Zhu Houzhao were obviously going to be disappointed, otherwise Zhu Houzhao would not have replaced almost [-] to [-]% of the officials in the DPRK and China in a short period of time.

Don't look at only [-]-[-]% of the officials, you must know that there are hundreds or thousands of officials involved.

You must know that in normal years, the frequency of changing officials above the court is quite low. It is still a great change to have such a ten percent of officials promoted or released every year.

Glancing at the emperor, Lu Zhi and Sun Zhong said with a bit of tragic: "Also ask Your Majesty to witness for me!"

Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "Yu Dayou, hand over the account book of the captured loot to a few bosses, and ask them to check it!"

Dozens of thick account books that were almost one person tall were carried out by Yu Dayou and then threw in front of Lu Zhi and the others.

These account books recorded all the seized property in detail, and the boxes in which these properties were packed were recorded in detail.

It can be said that according to the records on the account book, and then find the box with the serial number recorded and open it, you can find the items registered.

Looking at the account book, Lu Zhi and Sun Zhong's expressions became more and more pale, and the records in these account books were very clear.

After all, Lu Zhi and the others are veterans of several dynasties. Naturally, they know that if they want to make fake accounts, then the records in these account books will definitely not look so clear at a glance.

With such a clear account book, how can it be faked and how to hide the tricks.

Gritting his teeth, he casually took out an account book from the tall pile of Zhang Bo, and then flipped a page at random. There were dozens of jade articles recorded on this page. In the No. 109 box, you can find these jades as long as you open the No. 109 box.

"Open Box 109!"

Soon, a box with a seal on it and a clear serial number mark was carried over. Anyone can see that the box has not been touched, otherwise, the seal will never be the same.

Lu Zhi and Sun Zhong stared at the box with red eyes and gritted their teeth: "Open the box!"

Several soldiers looked at Chu Yi subconsciously, Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "Open it!"

Soon the seal was removed, and the box was slowly opened, revealing the contents of the box.

Chu Yi looked at Lu Zhi who was holding the account book in his hand, and said, "Master Lu, the box has been opened. You might as well check it out for yourself. Is there anything missing?"

Seeing how calm Chu Yi was, the bad feeling in the hearts of Lu Zhi and the others became heavier and heavier. As the saying goes, if you don't hit the south wall, you don't look back, and you don't cry when you don't see the coffin. Lu Zhi and the others stared at the jade in the box and then Check and compare them one by one.

If it was replaced by those great eunuchs with good money and life, there would be such a good opportunity. It would be strange if they didn't do some tricks in the account books and greedily put down a lot of gold and silver property.

However, Chu Yi has no interest in gold and silver property at all.

Chu Yi held himself upright, and one could imagine that no matter what his subordinates thought, at least no one dared to do tricks under Chu Yi's eyelids, so there was nothing tricky about the captured combat weapons. So Lu Zhi and the others opened more than a dozen boxes at random one after another, but the contents of each box were the same as those recorded in the ledger, and there was no difference at all.

The boxes were opened one by one with my own eyes, and treasures such as precious jade jewelry were presented in front of everyone.

All the civil and military officials were shocked when they watched this scene.

Everyone just heard that Chu Yi is not good for money and does not like beauty, but few people believe it.

Who doesn't know that the inner servants in power in the past dynasties either liked property or lustful life, and if Chu Yi could be an exception, it would be a strange thing.

It's just that everyone thinks that Chu Yi's actions are very secretive, and everyone doesn't notice it, but now, seeing that these properties are not bad at all, this is simply unbelievable.

If you put yourself in the shoes and think about it, if they were in Chu Yi's position, if they didn't move on these spoils, it would be abnormal.

As the boxes were opened, the more they were opened, the more beads of sweat on the foreheads of Lu Zhi, Sun Zhong and others.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible, Chu Yi must have done something..."

Lu Zhi murmured incessantly, obviously at this moment he was a little stunned.

"Open, open all..."

Sun Zhong, Han Li and the others were not much better than Lu Zhi, and they couldn't help shouting loudly with red eyes under the blow.

There are no less than thousands of these boxes. If they are all opened, the scene is afraid to get out of control. That is, at this time, Zhu Houzhao, who has been watching all this with cold eyes, said coldly: "Enough!"
