Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

Li Yi'an glanced at it roughly, copied down the frequency of the numbers that appeared on it, and said after a while: "Look, Mr. Pei, this is a normal account. The number with 1 as the first number appears about 9% of the time. The larger the number , the less it appears, when it comes to the number [-], the frequency of occurrence is not enough, so there is no problem. In addition, this fraudulent account does not have this pattern."

He explained patiently for a while, and then explained the principle to Pei Ju in detail.

Although Pei Ju is old, his ability to accept is not bad. At the end of the comparison, he finally saw the problem and said, "In other words, these accounts are all fake?"

"Basically, it's definitely fake."

Li Yian nodded.

"The official who sent this account belongs to the Zheng family, this is the Li family, this is the Zhang family..."

Pei Ju's memory is still good, and he briefly counted several accounts, and said in a trembling voice: "All are sent by officials of the family, and they are all fake!"

Speaking of this, Pei Ju coughed again with excitement, and after a while, his face flushed again, looking very angry.

"Pei Gong, don't be angry."

Li Yi'an said again: "I suggest calling Wei Zhongcheng over, and let's discuss what to do."

Pei Ju breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "It turns out that the master already knew that there would be problems with these things, so he arranged for Wei Xuancheng to enter the imperial censor's platform just to facilitate things and investigate to the end. The official censor, Wang Gui, is a member of the family, so he has to treat him well." Keep it, so he can't use it, sir is really thoughtful, come here, please come over Wei Zhongcheng."

Li Yi'an just smiled slightly, neither admitting nor denying, let him guess.

Soon, Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou got up, and seeing Li Yi'an was there, they saluted separately.

"Pei Gong, what's the matter?"

Wei Zheng asked.

"Xuan Cheng take a look at these accounts first!"

Pei Ju directly handed over the accounts that Li Yi'an found out just now to Wei Zheng.

"All these people above have problems?"

Wei Zheng looked at it for a while, and all of them were submitted to the Ministry of Civil Affairs by officials of the aristocratic family.

"The accounts are all fake, Wei Zhongcheng, let's go see His Majesty now."

Pei Ju snorted coldly and said, "I want to ask Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate these people. We must not allow these black sheep to continue to harm our Tang Dynasty!"

"The accounts of the family are all fake?"

Wei Zheng was slightly startled, and finally understood why he was arranged by his husband to go to Yushitai.

He sighed in his heart, Mr. took one step, and he was able to calculate the plan for so many steps later, which is really amazing.

Thinking of this, Wei Zheng immediately said: "If there is really a problem, I will definitely investigate it to the end."

Then, they went in the direction of Ganlu Hall.

Ma Zhou finally knew what Li Yi'an meant when he said last night that he would be too busy.

Li Yi'an finally calmed down, and when he returned to the Yantie Division, Zheng Chengping and the others were still counting the salt and iron tax paid by the Wang family.

It was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, and they finally finished counting. Wang Rujing was still an honest person, and the amount was exactly the same as in the account.

"Are you afraid of me?"

Li Yian asked with a smile.

They shook their heads immediately.

Zheng Chengping wanted to refute a few words, but he didn't dare to open his mouth. After being beaten today, even he has kept his own place much more.

-

Five days, four days passed quickly.

The Chang'an Daily also published it for three days, asking everyone to pay the salt and iron tax. Who knows that except for the Wang family, no one else is willing to pay this tax.

On the fourth day, Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng's recent investigation, regarding the fraudulent accounts, the list of those corrupt officials, and the lack of any aristocratic family willing to pay back taxes, his face became more and more ugly.

"More than 130 officials have falsified the accounts. From the five years of Wude to the present, they have been greedy for money. At present, there are more than 200 million yuan that can be counted, not including those that have not been counted."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Five surnames and seven Wangs, only the Wang family is willing to pay the salt and iron tax, the other six families, and all the aristocratic families, have nothing to do. Do they still have me in their eyes? Is there a court?"

Wei Zheng and the others bent down at the same time.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that no one should be spared, and all of them should be captured."

Seeing the final result, Pei Ju became more and more angry. There are still such people under his own Ministry of Civil Affairs. This is slapping him in the face!

"However, there are too many officials. If they are all arrested, it may cause bad influence!"

Xiao Yu said worriedly.

All of the more than 100 people were taken down at once. They were worried that the entire court would be in turmoil because of this.

Chapter 117 In case of indecision, ask Mr.

"If we do nothing, let them continue to embezzle the imperial property?"

Pei Ju, as Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, no one knows better than him how important the money is. The state treasury was not easy when the Tang Dynasty was first established.

Pei Ju hated corrupt officials deeply.

"But if they are all caught, I think the impact will be very bad."

Changsun Wuji suggested: "Those officials can deal with a batch first, and the rest will be dealt with one after another when we stabilize. Those who cannot be let go should not be let go."

Du Ruhui said, "Your Majesty, I agree with Mr. Pei's approach, and we must arrest them all. If we deal with them separately, other people must be aware of them and prepare in advance. At that time, even if we have evidence of accounts, we may not be able to catch them all." people."

Fang Xuanling nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I also agree with Mr. Pei."

"Your Majesty, I think you should think twice about this matter!"

Lu Guogong Hou Junji shook his head, he agreed with Changsun Wuji and Xiao Yu's suggestion.

"If everyone is arrested, it will be difficult for the imperial court to add so many officials to their posts in a short period of time. This will lead to government affairs being left unattended, and it will be difficult for the imperial court to continue to operate."

Tang Jian, Duke of the State of Ju, also agreed with Xiao Yu, and their ideas were relatively conservative.

As a result, various disagreements arose between the DPRK and China. Some insisted that they should be severely punished, while others said that it should not be rushed.

"Wei Qing, what do you think?"
