Chapter 207 Inaction
Xingwang's study room.

Zhang Zuo, Tang Yin, and Yi Weizheng were waiting for Zhu Youzhu to pass the imperial decree they had just received.

Zhang Zuo said with a bitter face: "Earlier, it was said that the palace provided one hundred telescopes to the imperial court. How could the imperial court allocate the funds? The imperial decree said it was [-] taels, but why did my uncle say it was only [-] taels in the letter?"

The message is weird.

The imperial decree came through the official post, and the emperor personally approved it, and the Ministry of Households allocated [-] taels of silver to build [-] telescopes in the Xingwang Mansion.

But it was clearly stated in the memorial to the Ming Xing Palace that the cost is only two thousand taels...

Is the emperor blind or not able to use his head?

Or lack of heart?
Didn't see the watch and chapter played above at all?

Since you didn't see the memorial, how did you criticize it?Or is it that the emperor is so generous, you said you want two thousand, but you insist on forcing ten thousand?Since the number of [-] was set, you gave it, and the final appropriation became [-] taels, so where did the remaining [-] taels go?

Zhu Youtang also had many puzzles, looked at Tang Yin and said, "What does Mr. Tang think about this matter?"

Tang Yin said: "Obviously, His Majesty did not personally read His Highness King Xing's memorial."

"Oh?"

Several people present felt a burst of surprise.

Your analysis, Tang Yin, is really unique. The emperor didn't see it, so how did he criticize it?
Tang Yin thought, are you all fools?

I can't even see such a simple truth, do I need to remind you?

"Or someone close to His Majesty read the memorial on His Majesty's behalf, and the supervisor of ceremonies approved the redemption on his behalf. As for the rest of the money, someone must have been greedy and embezzled, saying that it was two thousand taels...I don't know how much there is. Maybe it will shrink again. In addition, if you really want to make a mirror, you should hurry up, otherwise, when the situation in the Northwest War changes, someone may take the opportunity to participate in the Xingwang Mansion's ineffectiveness..."

What Tang Yin was talking about was basic sophistication.

A bunch of courtiers around the emperor commented in the emperor's tone, do you really think the emperor wrote it himself?

It's rare that the emperor agreed to spend money to build telescopes, so why don't others take the opportunity to report more and fill their pockets?

Now that the imperial court has borne the cost of the telescope, the Xingwang Mansion is just having fun, wondering where the remaining [-] taels have gone?

Your hearts are so big!

Zhang Zuo thought for a while, looked at Zhu Youzhu and said: "What you said is reasonable, my lord, in fact, it's a good thing, at least... since the palace has made a contribution, it doesn't have to pay for it."

Zhu Youzhu nodded, and looked at Tang Yin instead, as if asking, is that so?
Tang Yindao: "Zhang Fengzheng's reasoning is valid, but I'm afraid that people will find out afterwards, they will say that the Xing Wangfu cooperates with the traitors and sycophants in the court to corrupt the law, and take the opportunity to attack on the grounds that the Xing Wangfu and the treacherous and sycophants in the court are colluding... But since this matter, Your Majesty There was once a court meeting, and the ministers forcibly passed it even though they opposed it, then... King Shixing can just say that he didn’t know about it.”

Zhang Zuo said anxiously: "Mr. Tang, here are all our own people, let's explain it more clearly... Your upside-down, our family is almost confused... If you are afraid of being said that Xing Wangfu is cheating on the saint together with the court treacherous Listen, shouldn't it be time to bring this matter up and report it?"

Zhu Chen, who had been silent all this time, reminded: "Zhang Fengzheng, since His Majesty may not have personally read the memorials that were presented earlier, if the Xingwang Palace reports and exposes them, will it cause fire?"

Zhang Zuo was immediately depressed.

Even a warrior like Zhu Chen can understand the truth, can't Zhang Zuo see it?This can be regarded as throwing the blame away. You can't say that you were unprepared in advance after the incident happened, right?
Zhu Youzhao frowned.

Originally, Prince Xing’s Mansion wanted to use the telescope as a tribute to restore its good reputation and let the emperor re-trust and rely on Prince Xing’s Mansion. The palace has to bear joint and several responsibilities.

"Mr. Tang, let's take a closer look. How should the Palace deal with this matter?" In the end, there was no other way, and Zhu Youzhao could only hope that Tang Yin, the only think tank in the Palace, would provide advice.

It is impossible to call all the people from the Wangfu Chief History Department to consult.

The more people know about it, the greater the risk of things being leaked. It's better for the few close people in front of you to know about it and keep things within a certain range.

Moreover……

Tang Yin's previous performance showed that he did have a bit of strategy and courage.

Tang Yindao: "For the current plan, the best thing is to use soldiers to block the water and cover it with soil. Since the imperial court allocates [-] taels, then use these [-] taels to build it. The construction can be started in advance, and the things can be sent to the capital after they are finished. If someone comes out to expose the situation, then they should argue with reason, after all, the palace only received two thousand taels of silver, and the palace has never had any correspondence with the traitors in the court, so it's good..."

Zhu Youzhu nodded.

It seemed that inaction was the best solution at the moment. He stopped asking Zhang Zuo and Zhu Chen for their opinions, and immediately made a decision: "In that case, arrange for Zhu Hao to purchase materials immediately, and start work as soon as possible."

……

……

Tang Yin was in a good mood when he left the palace study.

The opinion was adopted again, and it seems that King Xing's trust in himself is increasing day by day, his status in the palace is becoming more stable, and he can live a stable life in Anlu.

Even if Zhu Wanhong knew his identity, it was difficult to go in and out of the palace, but anyway, there was food and drink in the palace of Xingwang, so why not?
But he still felt that there was something wrong. Looking at the sky, he reckoned that Zhu Hao should leave school early and go home early, so he left the inner courtyard from the west corner gate of the palace, and happened to be waiting at the gate of the academy, and saw Zhu Hao not long after. Hao came out from inside with his schoolbag on his back.

"Wow, Mr. Lu, you don't want to block me here, do you? Why don't you go in if you have something to do?"

Seeing Tang Yin leaning against the corner with his hands in his pockets and looking at him eagerly, Zhu Hao knew that Tang Yin's visit was definitely not a good thing.

Tang Yin smiled and said, "Has Zhang Fengzheng not come to look for you yet?"

Zhu Hao asked strangely: "Why did Zhang Fengzheng come to see me?"

"Oh, then he should go directly to your house... to discuss business with your mother." Tang Yin immediately realized that Zhang Zuo would not come directly to ask Zhu Hao.

Now that Zhu Hao said that the thing was made by a workshop, of course, this kind of big business involving two thousand taels of silver should be discussed with Zhu Hao's elders, and naturally he would not visit Zhu's house outside the city, but go directly to Zhu Niang You can.

Zhu Hao pouted: "That means the matter of the telescope has been settled? What's the use of looking for my mother? She doesn't know about it."

"What? Ling Tang...she didn't know?"

Tang Yin was taken aback.

You kid can do it.

He made a big bill of two thousand taels with the Prince Xing's Mansion, yet he didn't say anything to the adults at home?
You are so gutsy!
Zhu Hao mocked with disdain: "What's so strange about this? I said I did many things by myself, and even a well-informed person like Mr. Lu wouldn't believe it. If I tell my mother everything , doesn't she treat me like a monster?"

Tang Yin nodded.

I thought, this kid can always come up with some fallacies to convince people.

The two walked towards the gate of the west courtyard together.

Tang Yin directly explained the purpose of his visit.

"...Previously reported two thousand taels, and the palace paid the money. Now the imperial court transfers ten thousand taels of silver from Taicang, but Mr. Jiang sent a message from the capital, and got only two thousand taels..."

"Being greedy."

Zhu Hao answered directly.

Tang Yin grinned, and sucked in a breath of cool air between his teeth. This kid... is really straightforward, much more straightforward than those pedantic scholars in the palace.

"Then what choice should the palace make in this matter?" Tang Yin asked.

Zhu Hao turned his head and looked at Tang Yin, "Listen to what Mr. Lu said, you wouldn't talk about Xing Wang, saying that this matter will go with the flow, how much money people give you, Xing Wang's mansion will do as much as you want, and you don't care if you are exposed afterwards ,right?"

Tang Yin was stunned.

"That's what I said?" Zhu Hao nodded.

Tang Yin looked very powerless, and said: "Zhu Hao, if I remember correctly, you told me earlier that you can speculate on other people's psychology, but don't jump to conclusions?"

Zhu Hao shrugged: "I was just guessing, why don't I ask you for confirmation? My analysis is based on the actual situation... Just like Mr. Lu, you are a little worried about your own safety because your identity was exposed recently. So the coping strategy adopted is to try to make big things into small things, and small things into nothing, to put it bluntly, it is to do nothing... Is my analysis wrong?"

Tang Yin pondered a little...

There is nothing wrong with this statement.

I am a scholar who took refuge in the palace. The palace asked me what to do when something happened. Of course I hope that the Xingwang palace will not make trouble. In case the treacherous courtiers offend me, they will treat me as a thorn in their side. Zhu Wanhong also knows my true identity. Just arrest me for meritorious service?

Was it because I was timid and afraid of getting into trouble that I proposed to King Xing like that?I didn't find it myself, but you kid can think of it?

"Then how should I speak?" Tang Yin asked.

Zhu Hao sighed: "Of course there is something to say...Xing Wang's Mansion must be open and aboveboard, and the amount of silver it gets is as much as it gets. It is obvious that the actual amount it got is not in line with the imperial court's decree, but it does not care about it. This is not obvious. Tell others that the Wangfu knows that someone is doing something wrong but doesn’t report it? The one who is so wrong is the Xingwangfu!"

Tang Yin hurriedly asked: "Although that's the case, do you think this kind of accusation is meaningful? In the end, if you are suppressed by treacherous people, you will even retaliate against Fuxing Palace!"

Zhu Hao smiled, shook his head and said, "Mr. Lu, you are really afraid of things."

"I'm not afraid of trouble, I just don't want the palace to cause trouble."

Tang Yin refused to admit it life or death, staring at Zhu Hao, his face flushed red.

Zhu Hao looked at it and said, what the hell, are you still in a hurry with me?This is because my little thoughts were hit by my words, and my self-esteem was hit, so I was blowing my beard and staring at me, right?

"If the palace doesn't cause trouble, the traitors in the court will regard the palace as an accomplice, right? So we can keep each other safe?
"You don't think that those traitors just want to pull the King's House into the water, do you? Guess if King Xing doesn't report it, will the traitor you are afraid of report the King's House in advance? Said that the King's House knows the numbers are right. No, the imperial court allocated more funds, but deliberately filled their own pockets?
"By that time, the crime of being short of [-] taels of money will probably fall on King Xing's mansion!"

Zhu Hao's words once again shocked Tang Yin on the spot.

Zhu Hao said in a low tone: "You are not afraid of the shadow tilting when you are upright. If your body is tilted, why do you think the enemy will let you go? Afraid of revenge from the villain? Hehe, if you report it, those treacherous ones should be nervous!

"Don't just think about how to suppress the matter. According to the facts, even if it is revealed afterwards, the ministers of the court will support Xing Wangfu. Otherwise, it will be a situation where everyone pushes the wall down!"

　The second one is delivered!On the fourth day of May, there are three days before the end of the double monthly pass, the emperor asks for the support of the monthly pass!Grateful!
