Chapter 729

Sun Daoning was very sure that there would be mountains of gold and silver in the Nanshan Marquis Mansion.

Chen Guanlou was dubious.

If there really is a mountain of gold and silver, there are so many emperors in front of us, and no one cares about it? Unreasonable!

If there really is a mountain of gold and silver, no one would even think of digging it out? The late emperor was so fierce and greedy for money, but he did not care about the money of the Nanshan Marquis Mansion. This is not in line with the world's understanding of the late emperor!

Chen Guanlou asked his question, "Why didn't the late emperor move to the Nanshan Marquis Mansion? The late emperor was not a kind person, let alone someone who cared about old relationships. Old Sun, don't be confused, and don't let Wu Wu hear unfounded rumors. Guided.”

Sun Daoning was obviously stunned for a moment, and then retorted: "How do you know that the late emperor never touched the Nanshan Marquis Mansion or sent anyone to search for it?"

"When did it happen? Have you found it?" Chen Guanlou asked eagerly. Everyone in the world likes gossip. The first one they like the most is the Fengyue Bagua and the second is the Treasure Bagua. Even though I won’t get a penny, it doesn’t detract from everyone’s active participation.

Sun Daoning rubbed his eyebrows, "Where do I know where to go? I was a Jinshi in the 27th year of Taixing. I don't know many things before the 27th year of Taixing. I only know that from the fifth year of Taixing to In the 20th and 15th years of Taixing, there were several major purges in the capital, many people died, and many things happened.”

Chen Guanlou thought about it, and it seemed that he had to ask the housekeeper about this matter.

As the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, the Chief Butler knew the feudal family members of the Hou Mansion, the nonsense between nobles and nobles, and the situation of their respective ancestors. As long as the name is given, the chief steward will know whose family this person belongs to, which house he belongs to, which branch he is from, what background he has, what he can rely on, what position he currently occupies, or whether he is relaxing at home. All are cleared!

This is the basic quality that a great steward possesses.

"Old Sun, you are too ill-informed. If you take over the case of the Nanshan Marquis Mansion rashly, I'm worried that you will be in trouble. If you can't find the money His Majesty wants, have you ever thought about how you are going to do it? Can you still be dignified in front of His Majesty? Also, the late Emperor left so much private money. Where is the money going? Is Your Majesty a bigger spender than the late Emperor? Although you are not an official in the household department, since you have to handle a big case and want to take credit, I think you should pay more attention to money matters. In the end, you didn’t get any credit, but you became the scapegoat. What should I do?”

Sun Daoning was very touched at first. Chen Guanlou really cared about him. When I heard the end, all the emotion was gone. It's really superfluous. I said it so beautifully before, so why bother adding the last sentence?

"With your ability, even if I am unlucky, you can still find a second backer. In fact, you don't even need a backer. Your surname is Chen. The Hou Mansion will naturally stand behind you and be your backer."

"Old Sun, what you said hurts my heart! I treat Mingyue with all my heart, but the bright moon shines on the ditch. You are the Mingyue who doesn't understand the charm. Old Sun, I sincerely think about you. Look at you, my heart How small, comparable to the tip of a needle. Look at you, how narrow-minded you are, you can't even hear a word of truth.

Just tell me, besides me telling the truth to you, who else has the courage to tell the truth in front of you. Aren't you afraid that a bunch of sycophants who only know how to flatter you will affect your judgment? I am telling you the truth to remind you not to be arrogant. Do you think I am wrong? Where did I go wrong?

You just can't tolerate a person who tells the truth, and you speak in a weird manner. Why am I unlucky? You can find a second backer. Is this a matter of finding a backer? Lao Sun, you have failed to grasp the key points from beginning to end. I am very disappointed in you! "

Chen Guanlou was heartbroken, shook his head and sighed, looking completely disappointed. The two have been working together for so many years, but they don't even have this tacit understanding, and they can't even tolerate a few words of truth. It's really chilling!

Sun Daoning silently felt a little ashamed. It was him who misunderstood the other party.

In the blink of an eye, I thought, why should he be ashamed?

Why should he feel ashamed because of Chen Guanlou's few words?

How ridiculous!

He is the official minister of the Ministry of Punishment and the boss of the Ministry of Punishment. Whatever he says is what he says. What right does Chen Guanlou have to accuse him? What's even more disgusting is that he feels ashamed.

He was unhappy with his reaction.

He coughed lightly and said in a serious tone: "Don't change the subject, let alone ramble. Do I need you to teach me how to do my job?"

"Old Sun, you are confident and arrogant. Madness will lead to disaster! If you don't believe it, just wait and see!"

Chen Guanlou thrust the note in front of the other party and quickly signed and stamped it. After a few words, he became impatient.

Everyone is a bitch.

As soon as he showed his attitude of giving up, Sun Daoning's attitude softened a lot, "How come you have such a bad temper? It's shameful for you to lose your temper after I say a few words to you. Sit down, sit down, and speak slowly. . It is reasonable for you to suspect that the Nanshan Marquis Mansion has no money and where His Majesty’s money has gone. There is evidence. You know that the palace is being built, and the expenses are huge. The Ministry of Revenue is not responsible for this expense. In addition, when the north and the south are at war, there is a shortage of food and grass. We have to count on His Majesty’s internal funds. No matter how much money we have, it will probably be spent.”

"Don't forget about the tax increase at the beginning of the year." Chen Guanlou reminded the other party. Even the people in the capital have not been able to escape the burden of the tax increase. There are so many people in the world. You can imagine how much money the Ministry of Revenue has collected in a year.

"Most of the tax money was used for the war between the North and the South. A small amount was used to settle the arrears of previous years. The palace has stopped construction because of lack of money. Did you know about this? It is not surprising that His Majesty has set his sights on Nanshan Marquis Mansion."

"The late emperor, still the late emperor! Old Sun, you have ignored the late emperor again! If you want to say that you are short of money, how can you be more short of money than the late emperor? Think about it yourself. I guess His Majesty is not interested in wine, you may have misunderstood."

"How is it possible!" Sun Daoning refused to admit that his brain was not as good as Chen Guanlou who had only studied for two years. He could not have misunderstood.

"If your majesty has other purposes, why didn't you let the Ministry of Justice handle this matter instead of the Jinyiwei? Because the money went into the Jinyiwei's pockets, and I don't know how much of it will go into your majesty's pocket. Relatively speaking, our Ministry of Justice is cleaner. Do you understand?"

"I don't understand these! I just analyzed it logically. The matter of Nanshan Marquis's Mansion doesn't make sense." Chen Guanlou waved his hand. The logic didn't make sense. He ruled out revenge and venting anger. The treasure was questionable...

The Jinyiwei didn't handle this case, but the Ministry of Justice handled it, which was even more confusing. This kind of big case has always been the Jinyiwei's forte.

Because the Jinyiwei can shock people.

The Ministry of Justice really doesn't have that function.

The powerful people in the capital are not afraid of anything, but the Jinyiwei!
