After the court meeting, the officials dispersed. Jin Jiande took a few steps quickly and grabbed Wang Yong.
"Master Wang, wait a minute, I have something to discuss."
Jin Jiande looked at Wang Yongdao, who looked stunned, expressionlessly.
"Young prince, what are you doing?" Wang Yong rarely interacted with Jin Jiande, and when he saw him calling him to stop him, he couldn't help but feel confused.
However, his eyelids were already twitching.
Generally speaking, the people this young prince finds are not good at anything.
After all, his identity is unusual and what he does is also unusual.
Looking at Jin Jiande's handsome but serious face, Wang Yong already had a premonition that something was wrong.
Sure enough, the next moment, Jin Jiande was heard whispering:
"This is not the place to talk. Mr. Wang, please come with me to Qianji Pavilion."
Wang Yong's eyes narrowed, and a cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to his back. Although the weather was still a bit cold today, the hot sweat immediately rolled down his forehead.
"Little prince, what's the matter? Why do you want to go to Qianji Pavilion? What am I doing...what have I done?"
Seeing Wang Yong sweating profusely, Jin Jiande curled his lips, knowing that his goal had been achieved.
He looked around and saw that all the ministers had gone away, and then he said sadly:
"Sir Wang, among the six departments, your household department is the richest. Mr. Wang, you have been in charge of the household department for many years. Haha, you have made a lot of money."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yong trembled, and the color of his fat face changed visibly.
"Young prince, you don't want to say this nonsense! I, Wang Yong, am the best..."
"What's the worst? Do you think you are the same as Zhang Tianguan? He is a breeze with both sleeves!"
"It's you, huh! How brave! Last year's taxes in Binhai City, Anyang County, and that..." Jin Jiande had a sullen face and raised his voice slightly.
Wang Yong was shocked, his face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly interrupted: "Young prince, if you have something to say, please tell me. We are still in the palace."
Wang Yong is not stupid. He knows that Jin Jiande is looking for him in private, so he must have evidence of his crime. But if he said it privately, it also means that he will never report.
Eighty percent of them are here to extort money!
Sure enough, Jin Jiande said quietly: "Anyang County has been lost and the treasury is empty. Your Majesty is too worried about this matter to think about food and drink. Didn't you see the look on his face today?"
"At this time, Mr. Wang, can't you help me?"
Wang Yong looked ugly and cursed secretly in his heart.
The national treasury is empty, but your Jin family is not empty! It's so shameless to extort money from yourself at this time!
He cursed in his heart, but naturally he didn't dare to say it out.
Then, he chuckled and said, "Yes, yes, as a minister, I should share your Majesty's worries."
Jin Jiande nodded, hugged his shoulders, and a smile appeared on his serious face. He stretched out his five fingers and waved them in front of Wang Yong.
Seeing these five fingers, Wang Yong still had a smile on his face, but he already scolded Jin Jiande in his heart.
He spoke with a trembling voice: "Five?"
Jin Jiande shook his head, "Fifty!"
Wang Yong's face turned pale and he looked at Jin Jiande with fear, "Fifty? How can I have so many?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Jiande's expression changed and suddenly became fierce.
"Master Wang, think about it before you speak!"
"Are there any? How many? You know and I know. Your Majesty doesn't know. If Your Majesty knows, huh, then... you should understand!"
Wang Yong was exposed by his words and could only grimace and nodded.
Jin Jiande smiled slightly, straightened Wang Yong's hat, and said calmly: "Go back, Mr. Wang."
"Someone will come to your house in the next few days."
Looking at Jin Jiande's face, Wang Yong's molars almost shattered, but he still held up his hands with a smile:
"Yes Yes Yes."
He had just walked a few steps when he heard Jin Jiande say from behind: "Master Wang, just do whatever you want from now on. Just go ahead and do it. Don't be afraid."
Wang Yong's steps stagnated and he understood everything instantly.
It turned out that the money I had earned over the years was just collected for them.
He looked pale and walked out of the palace with hasty steps.
-
After negotiating with Wang Yong, Jin Jiande did not leave the palace, but went to the inner hall again.
When he was approaching the palace gate, he heard crackling sounds coming from inside, which was obviously caused by tea cups and other objects being smashed to the ground.
What followed closely was the scolding.
"That's my money!!"
"How dare this traitor take away my Anyang County! This evil thief!"
Jin Jiande sighed secretly in his heart and asked the palace maid to go into the palace to report his request for an audience.
After a while, Jin Jiande entered the hall, and at a glance he saw Jin Fengling sitting in a chair, his face ashen, and the table bank was scattered. It was obvious that he had just lost his temper.
"What's the matter?" Jin Fengling said coldly without even looking at Jin Jiande.
Jin Jiande bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I know that you are worried about the empty treasury. This palace is also old, and it will require a lot of silver to repair it."
"I...."
Before he finished speaking, Jin Fengluan heard a cold scolding:
"I don't know? I need you to tell me!"
"How important Anyang County is, who else knows better than me!"
"Without Anyang County, I won't be able to collect taxes and money, and the treasury will be empty. It's all my money!"
Speaking of excitement, Jin Fengluan sat up from her chair. She stared angrily, waved her hand, pointed at the main hall and said:
"Look! Look at this palace!"
"It's been a few years! It's old! I originally planned to make this palace look brand new before the year and move in after the year, but now!"
"I still have to continue to live here!"
"This traitor is planning to rebel. It's really hurting me!"
The more Jin Fengluan talked, the angrier he became, and his body was shaking with anger.
The resentment that had not been completely vented in the court before was completely erupted at this moment.
The delicate face has become ferocious, looking like crazy.
In the end, she had to hold her chest to prevent herself from getting so angry.
Seeing her like this, Jin Jiande hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, from there..."
Immediately, Jin Jiande informed Jin Fengling about Wang Yong.
After listening to what he said, Jin Fengling relaxed his frown and said, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to touch Wang Yong at this time."
"In just half a year, something happened to Qin Ze and Huang Long. Although the ministers didn't say anything about it, they still didn't know how to discuss it behind their backs."
Jin Jiande nodded and said with a slight smile: "Yes, that's why I went to see Wang Yong privately. It's okay."
Jin Fengling nodded and his expression improved.
"Well, you did a good job. In this way, it will relieve my pressure."
Jin Jiande was so happy that if he had a tail, he would probably be able to wag it.
But on his face, he remained calm and said, "It is our duty to share your Majesty's worries."
Jin Fengluan nodded slightly and continued:
"By the way, I plan to send a large army according to Zhang Li's words. Do you have any recommendations for the person who will lead the army?"
"But forget it about Jianren. He is the general who governs the country, so naturally we can't send him there. Only with him in the capital can I feel at ease." Jin Fengling said calmly.
Hearing this, Jin Jiande frowned and said angrily:
"My eldest brother is guarding the capital and cannot go. I have learned the art of war with my eldest brother since I was a child, and I am no worse than him. If Your Majesty wants to avoid future troubles, just send me!"
"What he can't do, I can do!"
