Chapter 218
Naturally, the king of Zhou would not listen to Ye Qitian's feeble refutation, so he immediately ordered people to bring Prime Minister Lin into the palace. Ye Chenyi led people to arrest Prime Minister Lin, and the shopkeeper Wang whom he had just met not long ago was also brought into the palace together.

After Ye Qitian took away the ledger, shopkeeper Wang knew that something was wrong, so he hurriedly went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to report the news, just in time, Ye Chenyi caught him right away.

The moment he saw shopkeeper Wang, Ye Qitian had a look of disbelief: "Why is it you? Aren't you in Jubao Pavilion? Why did you go to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Ye Qitian was completely confused, what was going on?

King Zhou didn't bother to pay attention to Ye Qitian, he threw all the account books in front of Prime Minister Lin, and sneered: "When Chen Yi went to invite the prime minister just now, I have already read all the account books, I really have to thank the shopkeeper, the account book records It is very detailed, for so many years of natural disasters and man-made disasters every year, as long as there is funding from the imperial court, the prime minister can get a share of it."

"This oil and water are really easy to fish! Isn't the prime minister afraid that his hand will be broken? How dare you move this kind of money?"

Prime Minister Lin knelt down on the ground with a frightened expression on his face: "Your Majesty, this old minister has indeed taken the money, and he deserves death. The old minister knows that it is too late to explain anything now, but the old minister still wants to say a few words. In the past, the old minister opened this The Jubao Pavilion is indeed only for subsidizing the family, but at some point, someone used the guise of buying treasures to send money to the Jubao Pavilion in a disguised form. The veteran returned it to no avail. Fearing that the emperor would misunderstand, he could only let the shopkeeper Clearly record the accounts of Jubao Pavilion."

"Just wait for the right opportunity to hand over the money to the court, and help the emperor to find out the moths in the court. The old minister has been ill in bed during this time, so I have no chance to explain this to the emperor. The old minister knows that there is something wrong, but please Your majesty, don't misunderstand the painstaking efforts of the veteran!"

Prime Minister Lin kept kowtting his head. If it weren't for someone who knew the inside story, he would really think that Prime Minister Lin was misunderstood.

If it was before, Zhou Wang might really hesitate, whether he misunderstood Prime Minister Lin.But at this time, Zhou Wang looked at the pretentious Prime Minister Lin and found it ridiculous.

"Leaving aside the past, the prime minister earned 10 taels of silver for the homeless riots. I remember that the prime minister wrote a letter to recommend the people who went to buy grain and grass. The prime minister also wanted to cooperate with me in catching moths, so he deliberately sent people recommended to me?"

"Recommendation?" Prime Minister Lin raised his head in surprise, it's impossible!He had clearly pushed Xu Ting, because he didn't recommend anyone, so he had the confidence to justify himself just now.

"The prime minister really pretended to be so confused. Before the expedition, General Lin brought me a letter from the prime minister, saying that although the prime minister was sick in bed, he couldn't let go of the affairs of the court. He specially recommended one to buy food and grass for me. I am very moved. Looking at it now, it is really ridiculous. Even if the prime minister is sick in bed, he still does not forget to save money."

Prime Minister Lin fell to the ground weakly, unable to say anything at this moment.He knew he was done.When Xu Ting came to him, he knew that there would be such a day, so he pushed Xu Ting, but he didn't expect that Ying Wu, who had been listening to him, would be moved by Xu Ting's words.

Forging his handwriting to recommend to the emperor, this is pushing him and the Lin family into a place of eternal doom, he has nothing to say...

"Father, when I was tracking An Shenzhu's whereabouts, I happened to go to a flower building. The old bustard in the flower building had a lot of silver engraved with official silver marks. After some interrogation, I learned that the money was paid for by two The girl redeemed her body and sent it away. There are rumors that the second miss of the Mu family and the miss of the Lin family have both appeared in that flower building. At the beginning, Erchen had met with Mr. Lin's family several times in Piaoxiang Building, and saw Mr. Lin's spending money like dirt. Those with the official silver mark..." Ye Chenyi's words undoubtedly pushed Prime Minister Lin into a dead end, making it impossible for Prime Minister Lin to stand up.
