Chapter 259 There is nothing new under the sun
The Duke of Qi immediately stopped in front of the Ministry of Revenue, and the doctor on duty greeted him personally. After hearing the Duke of Qi's purpose, he looked at the dark sky again, and was shocked and alert, and he quietly introduced Duke of Qi into the government office.
While he asked someone to count the accounts brought by Duke Qi, he sent someone to notify the Minister of Revenue Liang Tao.
Liang Tao’s mansion.
Madam Liang sat up wearing clothes and said dissatisfiedly: "It takes ten days and half a month to go home. Before dawn, someone came to call me, and the animals were not in such a way."
Liang Tao hurriedly put on his clothes and said impatiently: "I'm talking nonsense, no one calls me. I guess I won't be back for a while. Take good care of your family. By the way, don't worry about your son's affairs, the court will not abolish the imperial examination."
Liang Tao said, his clothes were not neatly worn, and he ran out of the room with one of his shoes.
Mrs. Liang called him from behind but ignored him. After entering the carriage, she urged her to go to the Ministry of Revenue.
The Duke of Qi came to the Ministry of Revenue at this time of the Mid-Time period, which is very meaningful to be investigated.
Liang Tao sat in the carriage, anxious and hesitant to notify Zhao Xu or Zhang Dun, but in the end he shook his head.
In the Ministry of Revenue, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue was chatting with the Duke of Qi. The doctor was a little nervous. The minor official came to report the verified wealth of the Duke of Qi from time to time. In just less than a quarter of an hour, verified 1.2 million guan. If it was dawn and more was verified, the total wealth of the Duke of Qi might exceed 5 million guan!
It was 5 million yuan. Even if he was a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue, he was deeply shocked. If he had known that these lords were rich, he would have never expected that they would be so rich!
The Duke of Qi was expressionless, and his heart was bleeding and painful! So many property were accumulated by the Duke of Qi over the years, and once he handed over all of them, he wanted to die.
Of course, if you can live without death after handing over it, it would be the best.
Liang Tao came to the Ministry of Revenue and saw Duke Qi, he smiled and raised his hand and said, "Duke Qi is so wise and I admire him deeply!"
Duke Qi sat without moving, and didn't even raise his hand, and said lightly: "My land is only 5,000 acres, but my family's wealth can be bought with 30,000 hectares. I wonder if Mr. Liang and Mr. Zhang are satisfied?"
Liang Tao didn't know how to answer. Zhang Dun was actually doing this. He sat down on the chair of the former doctor of the Ministry of Revenue and said with a smile: "Then I'll inform Mr. Zhang."
The Duke of Qi nodded indifferently, and now he has no choice but to do anything.
While Liang Tao asked someone to notify Mr. Zhang, he looked through the wealth of Duke Qi that the minor official had verified. Even Liang Tao, who had a wealthy family, was shocked. The wealth of Duke Qi's mansion was really rich, and he could not have imagined it!
At this time, Princess Qi'an was detained in the side room by Queen Meng. Now she doesn't understand what she said she was under house arrest by Queen Meng.
She smashed the door angrily, and even cursed with a rare slander, but it didn't work.
She could only pray in her heart, praying that the Duke of Qi whom she had always looked down upon would have some backbone.
Empress Meng herself was in Zhao Xu's bedroom. Listening to the report from Chenpi outside, Empress Meng turned to Zhao Xu, who was still sleeping with her eyes closed, and said softly: "Official family, don't you go and take a look?"
Zhao Xu was sleepy, frowned tightly, and said loudly: "Let Mr. Zhang take care of him!"
The dried tangerine outside was startled, and quickly responded in a low voice, running away quickly.
In the bedroom, Queen Meng looked at Zhao Xu, made up her hair and continued to sleep with Zhao Xu.
In the green tiled room, Zhang Dun was conducting a final examination of the Kaifeng Prefecture perspective. He was in his hand the memorial of the Kaifeng Prefecture Chief Cao Zheng.
He watched slowly, there were some official affairs and new appointments from the four magistrates.
A civil servant ran in a hurry and came in and raised his hand and said, "Duke Zhang, Duke Qi has gone to the Ministry of Revenue and donated all his family wealth."
Zhang Dun raised his eyelids and looked at him, snorted coldly and said, "His time is really stuck."
Cai Bian put down his pen and said, "It's probably because he is unwilling to give up. I wonder if there is any change. What are you going to do?"
Zhang Dun took out a blank document and said, "Give him a reward order. A heavy reward!"
Cai Bian twitched his lips, thinking about it, and said, "The Duke of Qi cannot be alone in the palace. There may be more people tomorrow. Some of the Ministry of Revenue have been busy these days."
Zhang Dun said, "Then reward! A lot of rewards!"
Cai Bian raised his hand, waved the civil servant away, and continued, "The case of the fire in Kaifeng Prefecture can be concluded tomorrow. What are your plans for the other things?"
Cai Bian is talking about the various cases that have been delayed since Zhao Xu took power, and all of these cases involve a wide range of issues.
Zhang Dun had already written the commendation order for Duke Qi to write, and said, "On the first day after the court, Dali Temple will settle these cases, put aside its burdens and go into battle lightly."
Cai Bian nodded and said anxiously: "That tips on business and the four magistrates may just be the beginning, we must be mentally prepared."
These husbands were demoted to third levels by Zhao Xu. If something happened, even if Zhao Xu wanted to protect them, they would have to have a reasonable reason, otherwise they would have to leave.
The people in the government and the country will not miss this good opportunity!
Zhang Dun looked at the dark sky outside, especially in the direction of the Political Affairs Hall, and did not speak.
Cai Bian looked over and was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood, saying, "Su Xianggong is not easy to meet. If you want to take him, you have to be cautious."
Zhang Dun picked up the tea cup and drank a sip of tea, and suddenly said, "The total amount of wealth donated by Duke Qi and others may be 10 or 20 million yuan, will it still be sent to the inner treasury the same?"
Cai Bian was stunned and said, "I have to ask Liang Tao this."
Zhang Dun understood what he meant and did not speak anymore.
Liang Tao accompanied the Duke of Qi until dawn. After calculation, the total amount of wealth in the Duke of Qi was 3.2 million guan, and the rest must be verified.
Liang Tao stayed up all night, not only was he not sleepy, but he also said excitedly: "The generosity of the Duke of Qi has been rare since ancient times. This official must have written a memorial and wrote a letter to the court, asking the court to praise the Duke of Qi for his great righteousness. He is a model in the world, which makes us ashamed!"
The corners of Qi Gong's face twitched. He completely sarcastically said Liang Tao's words. He ignored him and said directly: "Can I leave?"
Liang Tao hurriedly said, "Of course, of course, I personally sent Duke Qi back to his home!"
