Jingwen took the financial statement, and then said, "Who is Zhang Qiang of Langzhong in the Ministry of Industry?" ”

"I am? I am Lang Zhong, Zhang Qiang, who is responsible for the construction of the city project under the Ministry of Industry. Is there something you can do? Jingwen, you, an eight-grade petty official, have to think clearly, slandering Shangguan will be eaten. I'm a dignified official in the fifth grade, much higher than you, you have to think clearly. That Zhang Qiang said.

Jingwen immediately pretended to be surprised and asked, "What did I say?" I'm just asking for the name, why are some people so nervous? Is there a ghost in my heart, that's why I ask so randomly? ”

"I, I, I......" Zhang Qiang was actually a little nervous, and he couldn't speak.

"Who is Shi Yaoqian, a member of the Ministry of Water under the Ministry of Industry? You're a good name, it's in line with your identity! Jingwen asked.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I, Shi Yaoqian, have always been honest and upright, when have I ever been corrupt? The name was given by my parents, not by me. What do you mean? Do you want to slander Shangguan? Shi Yaoqian also said angrily.

And Jingwen looked at the report, and finally said, "The last one, do you want me to read out the name?" ”

Liu Zhifang, a member of the Yu Ministry, saw this situation and immediately shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, I can't let this guy slander our people here indiscriminately. Everyone, please join me in beating Jingwen, the minister who slandered my colleagues, to death, so that I can be regarded as cleaning up the court for my Datang and the righteousness of Datang for me! ”

That Liu Zhifang picked up a flower pot and was about to smash it at Jingwen's head, but Jingwen asked, "Do you want to kill people?" ”

"Nonsense, I'm cleaning up traitors for the court! I believe that the emperor will understand me, I am upright, and I am dedicated to the country! Liu Zhifang said angrily.

"Shechen Jingwen, give me death!" Liu Zhifang raised the flower pot high and shouted.

Jingwen sneered, but there was no trace of panic.

"Put down the pot!" An angry voice came.

"Smack!" The pot fell to the ground and shattered.

Liu Zhifang looked back at the person, and immediately suddenly weakened his legs, and said, "The minister has seen the emperor!" ”

The person who came was Li Shimin, but Li Shimin saw this "good show" and obviously had a complicated mood.

"Good! I didn't expect that I actually saw a good show! Li Shimin said coldly.

Liu Zhifang immediately knelt down and cried: "Your Majesty, it's this Jingwen who slanders the minister!" Your Majesty, just now the minister was trying to get rid of the traitorous ministers for the emperor. Your Majesty, all the hearts of the ministers are for my Tang Dynasty! This Jingwen is my minister of the Tang Dynasty, please don't believe his words. ”

Li Shimin has already seen it, this Liu Zhifang is probably shit! Jingwen didn't say anything just now, but this guy was about to fight and kill, and he lost his cool. And this scene happened to be understood by Li Shimin, who happened to come in time, so Li Shimin didn't understand what was going on? Originally, Li Shimin didn't believe it, but in his own palace, in Shangshu Province, and the Ministry of Industry under Shangshu Province, he actually found out three "big rats" on the first day. This made Li Shimin feel both sad and scared. On the first day of the Ministry of Industry alone, three were found, so there were six departments of the imperial court, nine temples and five prisons, and so many yamen, how many rats were there? This is still central, how many rats are there in the locality? It's hard to say.

Li Shimin ignored this guy, just turned his head and asked Jingwen: "How are the accounts checked?" How much money is in deficit? ”

Jingwen said loudly: "Your Majesty, in fact, there is nothing, but the three of them handle some accounts that they don't understand very well. There is some mismatch between the incoming and incoming accounts, but maybe they can explain it! So, the minister wanted to give them a chance to explain. ”

"Say it! What is there to explain? Li Shimin looked at Liu Zhifang and asked.

"Your Majesty, this is Jingwen, a traitor slandering me!" Liu Zhifang continued to cry.

"Smack!" Li Shimin kicked over.

Li Shimin didn't believe this guy's nonsense, because Jingwen had no grievances with him, why did he frame him? What's more, Jingwen is currently Li Shimin's cronies, and Li Shimin is more willing to believe Jingwen. This Liu Zhifang holds the power of the world's mountain and river transportation construction in his hands, and he has a lot of wealth in his hands, and now even Li Shimin is worried about whether he will be tempted.

"You two, do you have anything to explain?" Li Shimin asked about the other two.

Zhang Qiang immediately knelt down and cried: "Your Majesty, spare your life!" I'm just blinded by lard for a while, please ask the emperor to read on our original merits and spare us this time! ”

"Your Majesty, please spare me!" Shi Yaoqian also pleaded.

"Come on, send them to Dali Temple, how they embezzled the public funds of the imperial court, and I will review them one by one. This kind of rat, if you don't kill it, it's not enough to be angry! I just want to warn the corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the world that this road is a dead end! Li Shimin said.

Li Shimin said so, that is, he gave them a verdict. I'm afraid these three guys will definitely die, and Dali Temple will definitely not die and will be charged with some crimes. Dali Temple is responsible for hearing cases, and it is very clear about this kind of doorway. Next, it will be handed over to Dali Temple to deal with. And Dali Temple is the highest court of the country, and I am afraid that few people can come out alive after entering Dali Temple. What's more, according to the anti-corruption law of the Tang Dynasty, if you embezzle 20 yuan of money, you will lose your head, that is, less than 10,000 in later generations. Therefore, I am afraid that these corrupt officials, whether it is the law or Li Shimin's anger, will lose their heads.

"Your Majesty, do you still want to check the accounts? Check it out again......" Jingwen asked.

Jingwen's meaning is obvious, that is, if you check it again, I'm afraid that you will pull out the radish and bring out the mud, I'm afraid there will be a lot! That's how it is in officialdom, involving each other, one pulling out the other. If you continue to check like this, I'm afraid you'll find a lot of them!

"Check! We must investigate it, this kind of corruption must not be tolerated and cultivated! I have sent a thousand cow guards to protect you. Whoever dares to use a knife or a gun against you will let Qianniuwei kill him on the spot! You work overtime for me, and I want to see how many of these rats there are in my court! Li Shimin said angrily.

"Command!" Jingwen replied.

Those officials of the Ministry of Industry had a sudden break in their hearts, obviously frightened by Li Shimin's words. The Ministry of Industry is the hardest hit area of corruption, and it would be enough if the original accounts were in chaos. But now with a new method of bookkeeping, as long as you compare the borrower and the borrower, it can be seen at a glance. These guys' methods of fake accounting are too backward, so they are no match for the new style of bookkeeping. Now I'm afraid, if I continue to play like this, I'm afraid my head will fall off.
