Chapter 637 Loyalty and Traitor

Chapter 637 Loyalty and Traitor
Emperor Jiajing's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he always felt that his breath was stuck in his chest, and he felt that he was being rhythmic.

It would be too easy to solve Fan Zhizhou from the technical level.But this is not only a matter of power, but also a matter of face. Emperor Jiajing has not yet reached the point where he can be openly shameless.

In the quiet hall, someone suddenly moved.

Standing at the end of the minister's class, a certain fifth-rank (major) bachelor who was already close to the threshold strolled to the "evidence" in the middle of the hall, reached out and picked up the ledger, and turned it over curiously.

Dudu Chen of Jin Yiwei next to him subconsciously reached out his hand, trying to stop Bachelor Qin who was tampering with the evidence, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Qin Dewei held up the account book, escaped Dudu Chen's claws, and played to Emperor Jiajing: "Please check again! I will check it myself! It won't take long, half an hour will be enough!"

Emperor Jiajing certainly hoped that someone would come out to break the current rhythm, and Qin Dewei was someone he could trust, so he immediately said, "Yes!"

All the officials are speechless, what will you do as an imperial court official and a famous poet?

I've never heard of Qin Dewei demonstrating counting, so I guess he can figure out addition and subtraction within one hundred!
Faced with doubts, Qin Dewei smiled charmingly and did not explain.In terms of counting, he is at the elementary school graduation level!
I saw that Scholar Qin didn't want to make calculations, and he didn't need help from others. He only asked for a pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Then he stood at the desk desk, looking through the ledger with one hand, while holding a pen in the other hand, writing and drawing on the paper.

All the ministers looked at it together, and felt that what Xueshi Qin wrote was like a ghostly talisman, and the drawings were messy and incomprehensible.

Emperor Jiajing was quite interested, feeling that these handwritings were a bit like Taoist runes, full of mystery.

The contents of the account book are not too much, and Qin Dewei added and subtracted dozens of times, and he sorted out the data of the past one or two months.

After a while, Qin Dewei, who deliberately performed elementary school mathematics, put down his pen and said, "I got 10,000 taels and six hundred and eighty stones, so I should get six thousand three hundred and forty taels in silver!"

Everyone was really surprised, Xueshi Qin didn't rely on other people's help, not relying on abacus, but relying on pen and paper and ghost symbols, can he really calculate the number?

Because just now, no matter Fan Zhizhou or Chen Dudu, in order to save trouble, they verbally said "10,000 taels Qianshi" and "6000 taels" in general, not so detailed.

So Qin Dewei said such a precise number, he could only have calculated it himself just now, and the speed was unbelievably fast.

Then Qin Dewei played to Emperor Jiajing: "The accounts are correct, there is no false increase or decrease!"

Emperor Jiajing immediately felt extremely disappointed. If there is no problem, why waste all his efforts to check again?
Qin Dewei went to the silver box again, reached out to check the silver a few times, and finally confirmed his thoughts and guesses.

Then he asked Fan Zhizhou: "The silver money you took back from the sale of grain is specially stored separately for the sake of innocence. These are the original things, aren't they?"

Fan Zhizhou replied: "Indeed."

Qin Dewei clapped his hands and jokingly said: "Then Master Fan, you didn't borrow these money from rich local households to fool the imperial court, did you?

After leaving Zhaozhou, the silver will be returned to Zhao in full, and will be taken back by the owner again? "

The implication is that you, Mr. Fan, embezzled all the money, and then borrowed another money to make a show?

Fan Zhizhou said categorically: "There is absolutely no such thing, these silvers are obtained from selling grain! If the scholar Qin doesn't believe it, the officials are willing to donate the silver to the imperial court, please take it away personally for custody!"

Someone had been suspicious by Qin Dewei, but after hearing Fan Zhizhou's words, the suspicion was dispelled.

If Fan Zhizhou is willing to let the court take away the money, it means that he is not afraid of the test, which means that the money is fine.

So Qin Dewei's previous groundless suspicion was very much like a treacherous minister insulting and attacking a loyal minister in order to please the emperor.

In other words, many of the routines in which treacherous officials tried to frame loyal officials started like this.

But Qin Xueshi didn't have the awareness of the template of a traitor at all, he laughed a few times in a very abrupt "haha", pointed to Fan Zhizhou and said:

"You officials of the prefectures and counties have used all sorts of tricks to exploit the people's wealth, and you dare to lie to the sky in front of the Holy Majesty and the princes of the court!"

Fan Zhizhou glanced at Qin Dewei, and said forcefully, "You are a bachelor, how do you know that it is not easy to be an official close to the people.

If you continue to slander with unfounded lies, the lower officials will have to offend the superiors and fight for face in front of the imperial court. "

Qin Dewei sneered and said, "You still have face? Let me ask you, why are all the silver in the silver box big ingots?

It stands to reason that if grain is sold to the people, there should be a lot of loose silver and even copper coins in return. How many families can buy grain with large ingots of silver?

Don't say that it has been re-melted and turned into a large silver ingot.

Because you just said that these are all originals, and it took nearly a month or two to sell the grain. How could it be recast into silver ingots so quickly?

Besides, even if it is re-melted, the size of the silver ingot should be uniform!But your silver, there are five taels, there are ten taels, and there are 50 taels. What kind of casting method is this? "

Fan Zhizhou continued to answer: "The government sells grain at a low price, which has caused a lot of losses. In order to reduce the loss of silver taels, the minimum price for grain sales in this prefecture is only five taels of silver ingots, so that all townships can do it uniformly. The advantage of this is that. "

Before Fan Zhizhou could finish speaking, Qin Dewei suddenly kicked Fan Zhizhou to the outside of the threshold.

Because he tripped over the threshold, Fan Zhizhou fell directly, and then rolled down from the platform outside the threshold.

The well-behaved Wen Dou suddenly turned into an armed fight, and the Jinyi guard on duty immediately became nervous and stepped forward to surround Qin Dewei.

Chen Dudu yelled majesticly: "Qin Dewei, how dare you beat an official in front of the court!"

Qin Dewei didn't care, and shouted at Emperor Jiajing: "Your Majesty! Fan Xin, the magistrate of Zhaozhou, deceived the emperor and abused the people. He deserves to be punished!

Don't listen to Fan Xin's explanation, what he says is sophistry, and what he hides is evil!
Selling grain was originally an act of His Majesty to benefit the people, and the grace and rain could have spread to the people of Zhaozhou, but this Fan Xin dared to only accept more than five taels of silver ingots, clearly isolating most of the people from the outside!
Ordinary people are already poor, who can afford five taels of silver?Such low-priced food sold must all fall into the hands of wealthy households, and the worst case is the large tax-paying households between the villages!
It's the spring famine after the disaster, so if you resell the grain within two or three months, you will make huge profits several times over!At the same time, many ordinary people simply cannot get the low-priced grain sold by the imperial court! "

Hearing what Qin Dewei said, the princes of the imperial court, who had always been aloof, were all stunned. There is such a "legal" means of operation?

There is no problem on the bright side, and there is nothing wrong with checking the accounts. The account books are clear, and the money is clear!
After those low-priced grains fell into the hands of rich and big households, they resold them for several times the huge profits. Fan Zhizhou had 8000 taels for random points, which is much better than directly embezzling grains!
If what Qin Dewei guessed is true, this Fan Zhizhou riding horse is really a talent!Especially the real image of pretending to be a loyal and upright person just now, almost making Qin Dewei a traitor!
It's not that you are less knowledgeable, but that there are always new tricks at the grassroots level, and it's impossible for anyone to know all of them.

At this moment, the princes were amazed, but also had to sigh, how could Qin Dewei figure out what was so tricky?Could it be that Qin Dewei did this kind of thing himself when he was the bully in Nanjing?

The more Emperor Jiajing heard it, the more he became furious. Of course he was not angry because Qin Dewei beat someone face to face, he wished he could eat Fan Xin raw!
The hateful thing about Fan Xin is not how much he got, but how dare he spit on him, the emperor, after eating it up!
It was obvious that Fan Xin had tampered with the problem of selling grain, but he dared to push all the responsibility for the hungry people to him, the emperor, and he almost succeeded!
What's even more exasperating is that almost all civil and military officials became silent accomplices just now, and they almost collectively acquiesced to what Fan Xin said, only Qin Dewei, the loyal one, stood up!
Although Qin Dewei has no evidence so far, Emperor Jiajing is willing to believe Qin Dewei.

In other words, even if Qin Dewei's guess is not true, it must become true!

A generation of Zhongliang Qin scholars seemed to be ignorant of the changes in the atmosphere, and continued to say: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, we should thoroughly investigate the big households in this state to see if there is a large amount of hoarding of government-made grains!

But don't send Chen Dudu to go. This person is not capable enough to handle affairs. Just now he almost misled His Majesty and let the traitor Fan Xin succeed! "

"Enough!" Emperor Jiajing's emotions erupted like a volcano, and everyone except Qin Dewei felt the pressure.

Then I heard Emperor Jiajing say gloomyly: "I will stay here for one more day tomorrow, just to find out why there are hungry people in Zhaozhou!"

With Emperor Jiajing's haste on the road, he was willing to stay here for an extra day, which shows that the real fire was fired.

"Qin Dewei! I'll give you a day, can you find out?" After Emperor Jiajing expressed his determination, he suddenly asked today's only Zhongliang.

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Dewei replied: "We need to work overnight from now on, and we need a large number of manpower. We will attack separately tomorrow, and we should be able to find out before sunset."

Manpower is not a problem, there are as many as 5000 people accompanying the army.

Emperor Jiajing immediately called his name: "Wei Chun! Zhu Xizhong! Qiu Luan! Jiao Dong! Chen Yin! You all listen to Qin Dewei's orders!"

Qin Dewei almost knelt down, Emperor, don't do this!Although we love to seize power, our shoulders are still weak, and we really can't bear too much!

The other ministers exploded on the spot. It can only be said that Emperor Jiajing's emotions are simply unreasonable.

Most of those five people are Gonghou Bo, and the current errands in the team are the general guard, the deputy general guard, the left deputy general, the right deputy general, and the guard in Jinyi.

In other words, the [-] accompanying troops were led by these five people respectively.If everyone listens to Qin Dewei's orders, what will Qin Dewei do if he wants to rebel tomorrow?
 Wrote [-] words in one breath from the morning, the holidays of middle-aged people are so sad, ask for a monthly ticket!
