Chapter 107 The New Official's Second Fire ([-])

"This……"

Ta Si'an has been working in the Ministry of Industry for nearly ten years, from the beginning of the pen post to the current Du Shuiqing envoy doctor, during which time he has done quite a lot of shady activities. At this time, when Hong Qing said So full of self-confidence, he was really not sure whether he really had a clue in Hong Qing's hands. He was in doubt, so he dared to answer words indiscriminately, so he had to cast his inquiring eyes on Samuha.

"The truth can't be fake, and the fake can't be true either. What is right and wrong must be based on the facts. Since the little prince has something to prove, then let's show it. I'm really curious."

Samuha also wasn't sure what kind of evidence Hong Qing had, but at this point, no matter how worried he was, Samuha could only push through to the end. , immediately interjected coldly from the side.

"Sa Shangshu said it well, everything is inseparable from the word 'reason' after all, you must know that the sky net is extensive and sparse, and those who try to get away with it will only shoot themselves in the foot after all. If there is any real evidence, If you deal with it, just follow the law, what does Sa Shangshu think?"

Although Samuha's words were justified, in fact, they had laid an ambush inside and did not guarantee Tasian. There is no doubt that Samuha's heart is obviously not as calm as it appears on the surface. Qing was very clear about it, how could she let her go away so easily, so she quickly asked a question.

"That is, that is, what the little prince said is good. After all, everything still depends on evidence, but if there is evidence, it can be done as it should be. This officer has no objection."

The harder Hong Qing pressed, the more uneasy Samuha felt in his heart. At this moment, he really didn't dare to blatantly protect Ta Si'an, so he could only respond vaguely. After a while.

"Okay, that's what I want, Ta Si'an, Ben Beizi asked you, did you sign and approve the Changchun Garden repair budget on the sixth day of March in the 41st year of Kangxi?"

Although Samuha's statement was ambiguous, it was enough for Hong Qing, since she would not be entangled with Samuha anymore, so she sneered, grabbed the paperweight and slapped it sharply, raising her voice, He drank and asked.

"This..., it should be."

As soon as Hongqing mentioned the repair of Changchun Garden, Ta Si'an's heart immediately shuddered, not because of anything else, but because he really did something about it, even though he thought he was doing it secretly, but Unavoidably, he still felt a little guilty, but for now, no matter how guilty he was, he could only hold on.

"Well, very good, then the verification document in August 41st year of Kangxi was also handled by you. Did Ben Beizi ever say something wrong?"

Seeing Ta Si'an's eyes fluttering, Hong Qing secretly sneered in her heart, but she didn't rush to point out the strangeness, but continued to ask questions leisurely.

"That's true. I'm just acting according to the regulations. I don't know why the little prince thinks it's wrong?"

Under Hong Qing's continuous questioning, Ta Si'an's uneasiness became extremely strong, and he turned his heart to ask Hong Qing for the evidence.

"Wrong? Hey, Master Pagoda is a good question. According to the budget issued by you, this repair requires eight columns, 180 pieces of bright yellow glazed tiles, 1000 pieces of various hollow patterns, and 36, 45 pieces of green bricks." , 20 carved window lattices, 1000 yuan for large and small carved screens, more than 680 pieces of wood, [-] pieces of boards, and other sundries such as brushes and wood saws, totaling [-] three taels of silver. ,Um?"

Hong Qing came prepared, she didn't need to look at the documents at all, she just opened her mouth, and she has already reported all the figures in the budget documents.

"This..., Xiao Wang Ye Mingjian, after a long time, the lower officials really forgot the real number. If it is recorded in the document, it should not be bad."

Although Ta Si'an made a lot of money from this matter, but he forgot to explain the specific source of the work, but he had forgotten all about it. It couldn't be restrained, but it rushed into my heart, but I still had a fluke mentality, and I refused to plead guilty, my eyeballs rolled a few times, and I answered vaguely.

"It's good if you're right. Let me ask you again. When it's time to write it off, nine pillars, 4000 and 470 pieces of bright yellow glazed tiles, 55 pieces of hollowed-out decorations, 32 green bricks, There are 790 carved window lattices, [-] pieces of large and small carved screens, more than [-] strips of wood, [-] pieces of boards, and brushes, wood saws and other sundries, totaling [-] three taels of silver. ?”

Ta Si'an wanted to deal with it vaguely, but Hongqing didn't intend to let him do what he wanted, and a series of numbers came out in one mouthful.

"Little Prince Haihan, I really can't remember clearly. If there is a document, then it will be fine."

Seeing Hongqing recite the numbers so fluently, Ta Si'an couldn't bear it any longer, the sweat dripped down his forehead, but he didn't dare to wipe it off, lowered his head, and replied with lack of confidence.

"San'er, pass the document to Lord Ta, and let him confirm it."

Hong Qing didn't ask any further questions, but waved her hands and gave orders in a calm tone.

"twitter!"

Now that Hong Qing had given the order, Liu San'er, who was standing by the side, dared not neglect her, and respectfully agreed, holding a document, walked a few steps to Ta Si'an who was kneeling on the ground, stretched out her hand, Handing the document to Ta Si'an, he asked solemnly, "Look, these two documents are as they are? The signature at the bottom is yours?"

"It should be."

When Ta Si'an arrived at this time, he still couldn't figure out what kind of hole card Hong Qing was holding, so he couldn't help but feel flustered. He held the stack of documents in his hand and pretended to look through them for a long time. In the end, he could only be He answered honestly.

"Yes, that's good. Since Master Ta dared to sign and draw a pledge, it is obvious that he has already verified what is contained in this document. I don't understand it wrong, huh?"

Upon hearing Ta Si'an's recognition, Hong Qing twitched the corners of her mouth and revealed a pleasant smile, but she was still not in a hurry to reveal the cards, and just asked with a smile.

"This, this..."

Seeing Hong Qing's ambiguous smile, Ta Si'an's already guilty heart suddenly became a little more guilty. He stretched out his sleeve and wiped his face indiscriminately, hesitating and daring not to admit it.

"Is it or not? Tell me!"

Before Ta Si'an hesitated to come up with a reason, Hong Qing suddenly changed her face, slapped the copywriting heavily, and roared and shouted.

"Ah, yes, yes..."

Frightened by the sudden alarming sound, Tasan's body trembled suddenly, and in a panic, he couldn't help but recognize it indiscriminately.

"Very well, since Master Ta has checked it, there shouldn't be any difference, but Ben Beizi is a little puzzled. There is a difference of 1 taels of silver between the budget and the actual situation. I don't know how the extra is. Let’s talk about it, and I would like to ask Lord Ta to give me some pointers.”

Hong Qing's solemn face suddenly changed again, and she showed a vague smile again, and asked slowly.

"This, this, ah, back to my little prince, in the actual repair, one is the loss of materials, and the other is due to the damage that was not noticed before and needs to be repaired. It is also normal to use more materials. If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to investigate, and you will know that what you said is true."

After all, Tasan has been in the Ministry of Industry for many years, and he is somewhat clear about the construction of the project. After some answers, it is also reasonable.

"Sa Shangshu, is what Master Ta said true?"

Hong Qing chuckled, and did not comment on Tasian's words, but looked sideways at Samuha, and asked meaningfully.

"Engineering is complicated, how can everything be predicted in advance, and slight deviations are a matter of course."

At this moment, Samuha faintly sensed that something was wrong, and he wanted to cover up for Tasan, but he was afraid that he would also be trapped in it, so he couldn't help feeling suspicious in his heart. After pondering for a while, he gave A mediocre answer.

"Slightly deviated? Oh, well, there is a slight deviation. I really don't believe it. San'er, come and tell Mr. Sa how big the deviation is."

As soon as Samuha finished speaking, Hong Qing sneered, ignoring how ugly Samuha's expression was, waved her hand, and ordered in a deep voice.

"twitter!"

Liu San'er responded neatly, shook his hands, took out the booklet from his sleeves, spread his hands, and read out in a strict manner: "This is to check, from March to July in the 41st year of Kangxi, Changchun Garden changed a total of window lattices. 33 panels, including ten panels in the South Study Room, four panels in the Yunya Hall, three panels in the Ruijing Pavilion..., two pillars in the Housha Hall, one pillar in the Chunhui Hall..., two screens in the Nine Classics and Three Events Hall, There is a place where the screen is changed in Zangzhuzhai... there are many kinds of things, and it has been verified that there is a difference of 320 eight taels of silver for the discrepancy between verification and write-off."

"Tathian, this is what you call normal, huh?"

Seeing Tu Qiongdao, Hong Qing stopped going around in circles, and coldly glanced at Ta Si'an who was already trembling, and asked coldly.

"This this……"

Ta Si'an had already moved a lot of hands and feet in the renovation of Changchun Garden. Although not all the hands and feet were exposed at this time, the part that has been uncovered is enough for him to drink a pot , if Hong Qing really clung to him, he would have to take off his skin even if he didn't die. In fear, he had no choice but to turn his eyes to the gloomy Samuha for help again.

Although Samuha didn't understand where the evidence in Hong Qing's hands came from, but looking at Tasi'an's wretched look, he knew that the evidence was probably true, and he couldn't help feeling angry and anxious It's just that he said it, but he didn't dare to speak out to defend his nephew. What he was afraid of was that Hong Qing would take advantage of the situation and involve him, so he could only turn his head away sullenly, pretending not to see it. Tasian's extremely mournful gaze for help.
