Since Yan Song vigorously promoted the sorting out of the salt policies in Huaiyan and other four places, this undoubtedly violated the core interests of the relevant salt merchant groups, causing Gao Yao to stand on the opposite side of the Yan Party.

Although Yan Song had the intention of getting rid of Gao Yao, Gao Yao was deeply favored by the emperor, and Xu Jie was by his side, so he had no suitable opportunity to attack Gao Yao.

If Gao Yao really took the money from the household department, and he had already gained insight into the biggest secret of Gao Yao's divine favor, it would be easy to get rid of this household secretary.

Lin Haoran sat on a low stool, picked up the teacup and shook his head gently: "Behind Gao Yao is the Lianghuai Chamber of Commerce, he shouldn't lack a little money, and it is impossible to get a lot of money from Taicang, so he shouldn't reach out to Taicang!" ”

Unlike the local officials who were greedy for ink, the high-ranking officials of the imperial court were relatively incorruptible. Just the filial piety received every time they go abroad, or the "ice respect" when the local officials return to Beijing, can already make their lives very nourishing.

"Then you still instigated the Holy Lord to investigate the household department?" Yan Song's two snow eyebrows frowned slightly, and he turned his head to look at Lin Haoran and asked.

Yan Hong knelt beside the coffee table to make tea for the two of them, and looked at Lin Haoran with confusion.

Lin Haoran has a very high talent for political struggle, took a sip of tea, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, as if Zhizhu was holding the ground, and said: "Gao Yao intercepted 1.5 million Shilu rice last year, and the income of the government is increasing unabated, but the project cost is only more than 300,000 taels, where do you think those silver taels went?" ”

"To his pocket?"

Yan Song easily thought of Yan Shifan's various actions, but the thoughts that had just arisen were immediately extinguished by him. After all, Gao Yao was a person with a strong desire for power, and he was not so bold, he suddenly looked at Lin Haoran and said, "You mean! ”

Some things can only be understood but not spoken, the two glanced at each other with a sharp heart, and Yan Hong, who was making tea next to him, was undoubtedly confused.

Lin Haoran nodded lightly, gently put the empty teacup back on the table, and said sincerely: "The lower official proposes that the emperor check the account books of the household department!" First, I want the saint to understand the real situation of the current household, and he can no longer squander it unscrupulously; Second, Xia Guan also wanted to know where those silver taels went, whether someone had demolished the east wall and made up the west wall. ”

When it came to the last possibility, his eyes revealed a look of deep meaning.

"Tear down the east wall and make up the west wall? Well, that's how it should be! Yan Song's eyes suddenly lit up, and a long-lost smile quickly appeared on his face, and he nodded lightly.

Lin Haoran saw that Yan Hong was about to add tea to himself, so he raised his hand to stop him, seeing that Yan Song would not let go of Gao Yao easily, and said sincerely: "These are just the speculations of the lower officials, everything can only be concluded after Xu Jie's investigation!" ”

Now that the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites has been occupied by Yan Ne, the emperor has no reason to let Yan Ne return to the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites. The six Shangshu have always been a radish and a pit, and Wu Shan still wants to come back, and only by getting rid of Gao Yao can he have a chance.

At present, Gao Yao is not only a political enemy, but also an obstacle to Wu Shan's return to the court. He knew that he would definitely not be able to defeat Gao Yao on his own, and he had to rely on Yan Song's power to achieve the goal of getting rid of Gao Yao.

And Yan Song probably knows that this is an opportunity to deal with Gao Yao, and at the same time an opportunity to deal with Xu Jie, so it is definitely impossible to stand idly by.

"Xu Jie and Gao Yao are in the same group, let Xu Jie investigate the account book of the household department, and he will definitely not get the truth!" Yan Hong added tea to Yan Song's teacup and couldn't help but remind kindly.

Yan Song showed a smile on his face, and said arrogantly: "With your grandfather here, he Xu Huating can't cover the sky with one hand!" ”

Although the strength of the Yan Party in the court was greatly weakened, many officials in the various yamen in the capital carried the chrome seal of the Yan Party, and the influence of the Yan Party was far from being comparable to that of Xu Jie.

Lin Haoran saw that the goal had been achieved, and immediately sat on the low stool and stood up, and said respectfully: "Don't bother Lord Yuanfu, the lower official will leave first!" ”

"Yan Hong, send Lin Fuyin for grandpa!" Yan Song nodded lightly and commanded Yan Hong again.

"Lin Fu Yin, please!"

Yan Hong has lost the arrogance of Brother Gongzi in recent days, and raised his hand respectfully.

Lin Haoran nodded lightly, and was about to say goodbye to Yan Song again, but a touch of surprise flashed on his face. Yan Song, who was lying on the bamboo chair, closed his eyes, and faintly snoring, already asleep.

Seeing this scene, he still gave a salute and tiptoed out.

It's just that there is a hidden worry in his heart, Yan Song is too old. Even if there is a handsome butterfly like him, which affects the course of history, I am afraid that it will not be able to avoid the fate of Yan Song's going into the wilderness.

The words were divided into two ends, and Gao Yao followed Xu Jie out of the Wanshou Palace. originally wanted to discuss countermeasures with Xu Jie, but Xu Jie's hand was stopped by Xu Jie, and he made a gesture to him with ears and left.

Gao Yao knew that there were many eyes and ears in the palace, and he really wanted to "avoid suspicion", so he left directly from Xiyuan and returned directly to the Hubu Yamen in a sedan chair waiting outside the palace.

"Lord Ministry, the emperor called you over, but what reward is there?" Xiao Langzhong of the Qing Officials Division of Jiangsu and Zhejiang was about to go out to run errands, but he followed Gao Yao to greet him, and he thought he was humorous and greeted Gao Yao warmly.

"Get out of here!"

Gao Yao's stomach was full of anger, and in the face of this eyeless subordinate, the anger in his chest immediately gushed out, and he roared with a hideous face.

Xiao Langzhong, who was full of smiles, suddenly turned pale like earth, and hurriedly took a few steps back to avoid it, but his heels mixed on the threshold, and the whole person fell on the spot.

This scene soon spread throughout the entire household yamen, and everyone knew that the lord of the ministry was in a bad mood. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and soon everyone will know the reason for Gao Yao's anger.

Yin Lin Haoran of Shuntian Mansion impeached Gao Yao, the secretary of the household department, for not being good at managing money, and the emperor ordered Xu Ge Lao to lead the Metropolitan Procuratorate to verify the account books of the household department, and Gao Yao's throne of the household department was in jeopardy.

This news is naturally inaccurate, and the main reason for the incident is Zong Fan Lumi. It's just that on the matter of Kekoulumi, whether it is the Xu Party or the Yan Party, both sides have chosen to remain silent.

After all, this is related to Jiajing's "financial revenue", and no one dares to easily step on this minefield, or this will be an eternal secret.

The officialdom in the capital was still talking about Lin Haoran's going or staying yesterday, but it seemed that in the blink of an eye, Lin Haoran had already crawled out of the quagmire and kicked Gao Yao into the quagmire with his own feet.

While sympathizing with Gao Yao, he had to admire the ferocity of Lin Operator.

Gao Yao returned to the signing room and said a few words to several henchmen. Before it was time to go down, he hurriedly returned home, already trying to find a way to "cross the catastrophe".
