"... Your Majesty, there are 20 debtors in the capital, and now there are 15 people who have paid back the money, a total of 15 million taels, all of which have been handed over to the treasury." Lu Xiangzhi reported the situation of the cashier in the capital in detail. Listen to Murong Zhan, and explain clearly to the person who will return the money.
The corners of Murong Zhan's mouth were raised slightly, and there was a chill in his eyes, "For the 80 million taels of debt, Nanyue's accounted for more than 60 million taels?"
Lu Xiangzhi replied in a low voice, "Your Majesty, these sixty-five million pieces may never have been sent to the treasury. They were borrowed when they were in South Vietnam. I found out in the account books how the Pan and Feng families in South Vietnam ransacked their homes. Withdrawing the money from the treasury is not the same as the two grand occasions at that time."
"Bring it." Murong Zhan's face was gloomy. When he saw the account book, he thought that the money might not all come from the treasury. Who in South Vietnam would have the guts to keep the tax money directly? I issued an IOU to the first emperor, but the first emperor didn't even bother to ask about it. It's so tricky that people have to think about it. Once you think about it, it's too incredible.
Eunuch Fu came over to take the account book from Lu Xiangzhi, Mo Rongzhan flipped through a few pages, and the anger welled up in his heart, "The Nanyue Pan family and the Feng family were both rich and powerful back then, is it just such a little thing they collected from the house? ?”
Lu Xiangzhi endured Mo Rongzhan's anger, "Your Majesty, Yichen guesses that there should be many things that have not been recorded in the files. It is unknown where those things have gone."
Mo Rongzhan suppressed the anger in his chest, "What did the Pan family and Feng family do back then?"
This case should have happened many years ago, and he had no memory of it at all. Later, when he grew up and became sensible, he had never heard others mention it. If he hadn't found those account books in the treasury, he would have no idea about the Nanyue Pan family and the Feng family. matter.
"This..." Lu Xiangzhi showed a perplexed look, "Your Majesty, I wanted to go to Tianlu Pavilion to retrieve the dossier these two days, but I couldn't find it."
Tianlu Pavilion is the archives of the palace. In addition to storing laws and regulations, there are also files of major cases over the years. For such a big case of family raids by the Pan family and Feng family, there will definitely be files in Tianlu Pavilion, but there is not even a single word.
Mo Rongzhan looked up at Lu Xiangzhi, "Didn't the file be found in Tianlu Pavilion? What about the Yellow Book Library?"
The yellow book library contains case files and files across the country, and it is impossible that there are no records of the Pan family and the Feng family.
"I have also looked for it, but I still haven't found it." Lu Xiangzhi said.
Mo Rongzhan laughed back angrily, "I don't intend to let future generations know about the case of the Pan family and the Feng family."
With this level of concealment, if it is said that these two cases are not tricky, who will believe it.
Lu Xiangzhi bowed his head slightly and remained silent. He discovered something wrong with the case when he was recovering the money. He was curious and wanted to take a look at it, but he found that none of the files were recorded. If he guessed correctly, this is an unjust case.
"The Pan family and the Feng family were convicted of ransacking their homes back then. Where are their descendants now?" Murong Zhan asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty..." Lu Xiangzhi said with a dry throat, "Back then, he was sentenced to confiscate his family and exile in the wilderness. A total of 310 people from the Pan family and the Feng family suffered from famine and epidemics in the wilderness, and none of them survived."
Mo Rongzhan narrowed his eyes slightly, his deep and dark eyes seemed to be covered with frost, "No one survived, all died in the wilderness?"
Lu Xiangzhi lowered his head. There was one more thing he didn't dare to say. When he couldn't find the files of the Pan family, he wanted to find out who had contacts with the Pan family. Maybe he could find some useful information, because The Lu family had a great business before, so he went to find his second uncle and Lu Zanzhi, only to find out that his grandfather had been a merchant for the Pan family before the Lu family made a fortune.
The relationship is too important, and he will not bring the Lu family into it until he finds out why the Pan family is ransacked and wiped out.
"This is what I found..." Lu Xiangzhi said in a low voice.
Mo Rongzhan looked down at the account book on the table, and a stern look flashed in his eyes, "Go to Nanyue to meet the little prince, and tell the sixth prince about the case of the Pan family and the Feng family, and let the sixth prince secretly investigate case."
Lu Xiangzhi promised in a low voice.
"Go down and prepare." Murongzhan said, he put the account books aside, now the money in the capital has been collected almost, and it can meet Ye Chunnan's food and grass in Xiliang.
There has been a stalemate in Xiliang. Wan Ziliang was seriously injured. Although he did not fight in person, it would not be easy for Ye Chunnan and Wan Yanxi to join forces to drive out the Beiming army. After all, Wan Ziliang has 200,000 elite soldiers in his hands. .
Unless another civil strife broke out in Beiming Kingdom at this time!
Murong Zhan leaned on the Taishi chair and fell into deep thought. Now Jin Kingdom can be said to be suffering from internal and external troubles. If he hadn't found these account books in Murongyi, he would not have discovered such a big problem between the clan and Nanyue. The reason why the first emperor was stupid was because Later, most of the royal family's power was controlled by the clan. Later, he relied on Ye Yisong's ability to suppress the clan. After he ascended the throne, he killed Ye Yisong, but the clan didn't do anything, so he ignored it.
Before Ye Yisong, what did the clan do to the late emperor? Forced the first emperor to decentralize his powers
This is an internal problem, and an external problem is the war in Xiliang. Every war is getting worse and worse. He still has to think about whether he should go to war again.
No, no, if he wants to conscript himself, then he won't rest assured that Yaoyao will stay in the capital, unless he can be sure that there will be no problems in the capital.
"Your Majesty, Xue Lin is seeking an audience outside." Eunuch Fu walked in lightly, interrupting Mo Rongzhan's meditation.
Murongzhan immediately came to his senses, he asked Xue Lin to stay in Chengde Villa, and he returned to the palace at this time, could something happen to Yaoyao
"Let him in." Mo Rongzhan temporarily put down other matters, and Yaoyao's matter is the most important thing now.
Xue Lin came in from the outside and saluted Murong Zhan, "This subordinate has seen the emperor."
Mo Rongzhan frowned and glanced at him, seeing that he didn't look flustered, presumably something happened to Yaoyao, "Why did you go back to the palace? Is it the queen's business?"
"Back to the emperor, the empress said that she wanted to eat the beef noodles made by Xiaoran, and asked the subordinates to take Xiaoran to Chengde Villa." Xue Lin said in a low voice.
Craving beef noodles? Mo Rongzhan raised the corners of his lips when he heard the words, and said to Eunuch Fu, "Go and bring this court lady and let Xue Lin take it to the villa." Then he looked at Xue Lin again, "How is the queen these days?"
"The empress is accompanied by Mrs. Lu. She hasn't been out of the villa for several days. She just takes a walk in the villa to enjoy the flowers." Xue Lin replied. As for the news about the capital and the palace, they are very strict. It will not reach the ears of the empress.
Mo Rongzhan rubbed his chin with his fingertips, isn't Yaoyao's life too carefree...
Even if she didn't hear anything, didn't she have doubts in her heart
