The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1316 Everyone went to eat tree bark outside the city

Jin Chun was confused at this moment.

He didn't know why the emperor was so sure that he was the one who did it.

But he did not dare to gamble with the emperor.

The emperor asked him to admit it himself, obviously not wanting to spend any more time on the matter.

If he denies it, the matter will also be found out by the emperor.

After all, as Zhao Chen said, half a million dollars of silver is just under this lake.

Check it, it will definitely be found out.

But……

Your Majesty, I am guilty! Jin Chun finally did not dare to continue his sophistry.

If no one doubts the lake, he will definitely defend himself again.

but……

Jin Chun tremblingly knelt on the ground and confessed to the emperor.

Bastard! When the emperor saw Jin Chunzhen kneeling down to confess his crime, a burst of anger surged into his heart.

He just said something tentatively.

Okay.

I didn't expect it to be this guy.

As the left minister of the Ministry of Finance, you are the right-hand man of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. It would be better for you to use this method on him on the first day he takes office.

It also affects the right minister of Tobe!

Jin Chun, you really impress me! The emperor pointed at Jinchun's nose and cursed.

Jin Chun said nothing.

Nothing he said made sense at the moment.

It is better to wait obediently and wait for the emperor to deal with him.

Who else is with you?

Throw half a million guan of silver into this lake in one day. You can't do it alone. The emperor said again.

Those who are carrying out this matter together with me are...

Boy Zhao!

Zhao Chen was awakened by the emperor's loud voice.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the emperor looking at him with big eyes.

What for? Zhao Chen yawned and asked the emperor.

Miss Xue's family stood aside. Seeing Zhao Chen looking so lazy in front of the emperor, she was also worried about him.

\u003c

br\u003e Who doesn’t know that the emperor has extremely strict requirements for the princes.

Is someone like Zhao Chen not allowed to be sprayed to death by the emperor?

I have solved the matter for you. The salvage of the five hundred thousand silver coins has already begun.

Your boy is in the household department and does a good job for me.

If I don't have five million silver coins in stock by this time next year, you will see how I will deal with you.

If you want to sleep, go home and sleep.

Let's go! The emperor kept chattering for a while.

In the end, he left first.

This operation really confused Miss Xue!

Isn't His Majesty the Emperor very strict with the prince?

It doesn’t look like the one just now!

Miss Xue, you have worked hard today. Go back and rest early. You will still be busy in the future. Zhao Chen stood up, took a sip of the cold tea on the table, and said to Miss Xue.

Ah, has this matter been resolved? Miss Xue's daughter has not yet come to her senses.

It was obvious that Zhao Chen had done nothing.

Why did this matter end?

Didn't His Majesty just say that the matter has been resolved and they are all salvaging the money from the lake.

Your Majesty has solved this matter perfectly. Of course we can go back and rest.

Let's go, I just happened to see you off on the way. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

What does it mean that His Majesty solved this matter perfectly?

Miss Xue didn't understand it at all.

Could it be that Zhao Chen was just waiting for the emperor to come and solve this matter for him?

But isn't this Zhao Chen's responsibility?

Mr. Zhao, are you waiting for His Majesty to come over on purpose? Miss Xue asked the question in her heart.

No, no. Zhao Chen smiled and waved his hand.

But Miss Xue didn’t believe Zhao at all.

Chen's words.

Deliberately waiting for the emperor to resolve the matter is really courageous.

The household department was sorted out.

From the left minister to the right minister, and almost half of the officials below, they all took advantage of the emperor.

Many officials were killed, demoted, or reprimanded.

Even the Hubu Yamen officials were severely punished.

Many people even lost their heads!

All the officials in the court saw Zhao Chen's terror once again.

Wherever this guy goes, trouble will happen.

Now all the officials are rejoicing that Zhao Chen has gone to the Ministry of Revenue. If he had gone to other places, he might have to implicate them.

Now the officials have much more respect for Zhao Chen, and they are worried that one day, Zhao Chen will suddenly run away from their yamen!

But the Ministry of Household Affairs is an important department after all, and they have to go to Zhao Chen for help with many official tasks.

For example, Dai Zhou, the young minister of Dali Temple.

Dai Zhou really didn't want to see Zhao Chen. Although he had helped Zhao Chen before, Dai Zhou knew very well that he was too close to Zhao Chen.

It’s easy to become acclimatized.

But there is no way, Dali Temple officials have not received their salaries for two months.

Dai Zhou was sent by his immediate superior, the Qing of Dali Temple, to ask Zhao Chen for two months' salary of Dali Temple officials.

When he saw Zhao Chen, Dai Zhou couldn't control his heart and beat twice.

Then he cheered himself up on his own.

He is here to ask for money, and he is aboveboard, so what are he afraid of?

If Zhao Chen dares not to give it, he will not leave today!

The household department still has to take care of the food!

Shang Shu Zhao. Dai Zhou squeezed out a smile and shouted to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen looked up and saw that the person coming was Dai Zhou, so he stood up and greeted: Dai Shaoqing, long time no see, you are a rare visitor.

Come here, serve some tea.

Zhao Chen's sudden politeness made Dai Zhou wary.

He reminded himself that he was just here to ask for money today, and he didn't know anything else.

Zhao Shangshu, I won't drink any more tea. Today, under the order of the Minister of Dali Temple, I came to ask Zhao Shangshu whether it is time to distribute the salary for the first and second months of our Dali Temple. Dai Zhou got straight to the point, obviously not wanting to. Stay here with Zhao Chen for a while.

After all, Zhao Chen is now the god of plague in the entire court, so it is safer to stay away from him.

Salary, what salary? Zhao Chen was also stunned.

He didn't even know what Dai Zhou meant when he said this.

Ahem, Mr. Zhao, it is recorded in the account book that he still owes Dali Temple two months' salary, a total of one thousand guan. Miss Xue family came over and reminded Zhao Chen in a low voice.

I owe a thousand guans, where are the other yamen? Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment, he didn't know about this before.

The Ministry of Revenue still owes the salary to Dali Temple?

Isn’t this nonsense?

Now that the Ministry of Revenue doesn't have a single coin, how can he pay these officials salaries?

You can't use Zhao Chen's own money?

He is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, not a boy who wants to spread his wealth!

The rest of the ministries all owe one month's salary, which amounts to about 10,000 yuan. Miss Xue's family said.

She also wanted to remind Zhao Chen yesterday, but Zhao Chen urged her to go home and rest.

This is not good, he is blocked in the door by wearing a hat.

Ten thousand strings?

Dai Shaoqing, the last 500,000 yuan in the Treasury of the Ministry of Revenue have been taken to Hedong by the Ministry of Works.

How about you wait a little longer? Zhao Chen and Dai Zhou said.

Everyone who wears a hat is going to be stupid.

Make them wait?

Isn't this nonsense?

There are hundreds of officials in Dali Temple, each of whom only has an average of less than five guan of silver per month.

Many people live on these five pieces of silver.

You’ve been waiting for two months, are you still waiting?

Then they might as well all go outside the city and chew tree bark!
