    At the same time, Emperor Zhaohe summoned the Prime Minister of Qin in the Imperial Study Room regarding the salt tax account books of the Ministry of Revenue.  method, blurring the discrepancies in the salt account, exaggerating or minimizing the discrepancies, and making some items appear out of thin air, resulting in the unexplained loss of more than two million taels of salt tax and silver."

    Having said this, Qin Xiang raised his head to see Emperor Zhaohe, whose expression was already livid. His eyes narrowed slightly before he continued: "This is what I found out." In other words, there are still parts that have not been found out.

    "That's enough." Upon hearing this, Emperor Zhaohe became furious and made the entire imperial study tremble.  Emperor Zhaohe was angry that someone dared to impose the salt tax under his nose. He kept it secret for more than ten years and squandered more than two million taels of silver from the treasury.  The Wei Dynasty is still under the rule of He Qing Haiyan, but there are still such things as corrupt officials. Emperor Zhaohe also knew this well.  However, what angered him most was not the two million taels, but King Xiang's deception, which made him most distressed.

    "Is Prince Xiang involved in this?" Emperor Zhaohe looked cold and stern.

    "Only Wei Liang, the former Minister of Household Affairs, and the disciples of King Xiang were found to be secretly involved." Qin Xiang said with a serious look in his eyes. He was only responsible for finding out the whole story and being impartial. How to deal with it depends on what Emperor Zhaohe thinks.  .

    Hearing this, Emperor Zhaohe already had a look of disappointment in his eyes.  Wei Liang was the uncle of King Xiang Li Fu, and the guests of King Xiang lived in King Xiang's mansion. If King Xiang was not behind them, who would have given them the courage to raise their hands on the salt tax?  King Xiang must be behind the salt water matter.  Prime Minister Qin didn't say this out loud, but it was clear inside.

    "This matter will be reported in detail at the court meeting tomorrow." Emperor Zhaohe stroked his forehead and waved to Prime Minister Qin to retreat.  There was silence in the imperial study room. Su Changshi slowed down his voice. No one dared to break the silence.

    On the second day of the court meeting, the day of communication was much more solemn. Li Ci was keenly aware that King Xiang's face was extremely gloomy, and the entire King Xiang's party was gloomy. King Zhou was as usual, his brows were condensed, and there was no clue.  , but some of the courtiers who were attached to him were obviously full of joy.

    Qin Xiangwu closed his eyes and rested himself, while the censors on the censorship platform looked complacent, and the wat boards in their hands were still clenched tightly.  Before going to court, there was already a storm underneath.

    "Your Majesty is here!"

    Su Changshi's voice reached the court. After all the officials knelt down and worshiped "Long live the mountain," the entire court fell into silence. After Emperor Zhaohe sat down, the hanging beads on his crown swayed and collided with the movements, covering them up.  Emperor Showa's expression changed.  The officials obviously did not dare to offend Tian Yan, but some people cautiously peeked into the emperor's expression, but saw that there was nothing but darkness, and their hearts beat a little.

    The person who dared to break the silence was the Prime Minister of Qin. He held a wat tablet and said: "Your Majesty, the investigation of the salt tax has been completed."

    "Come here in detail." Emperor Zhaohe's words completely kicked off this storm.

    Qin Xiang has been in the court for more than thirty years. He is known for his uprightness and unkindness. He has always been fierce and extraordinary, and he was deeply valued by Emperor Zhaohe.  As soon as he took action, the Yanshui incident was basically settled, and the rest depended on King Xiang's defense.

    "Prince Xiang, what do you have to say?" Emperor Zhaohe looked sharply at Prince Xiang.

    Prince Xiang's face had turned pale as early as when Qin Xiang reported the report. He had expected that Qin Xiang's actions would inevitably find him out, but he didn't expect Qin Xiang to be able to find out so deeply. It was because he had secretly instructed Wei before.  You can find out some clues about everything you forgive.  When he met Emperor Showa's eyes, there was a chill behind him.

    How could King Xiang not know that Emperor Zhaohe valued the salt tax? He had thought twice about the salt tax when he started it. Once he started, he would never be able to look back.  But he couldn't worry about it anymore. He was extremely short of money at that time. In order to win people's hearts, he didn't need to spend money anywhere. The entire Prince Xiang's palace was short of money.  The incident happened today. He had to admit it, but he definitely couldn't admit it all.  Otherwise, everything will be lost for him.  He didn't want to face his father's harsh words, nor did he want to lose his father's trust. He absolutely couldn't lose.

    "My son is guilty." King Xiang saw King Zhou out of the corner of his eye. His eyes were cold and resentful. He will remember what happened today and will take revenge in the future.  Thinking of this, King Xiang looked panicked, his fat body knelt down heavily, and his head hit the hard black floor.  Even Li Ci was quite frightened when he saw this strength.

    Prime Minister Qin found out Wei Liang and the staff of Prince Xiang's Mansion. In order to save himself, Prince Xiang had no choice but to let go of these two people, as well as Liu Qi, the Minister of Household Affairs who was deeply involved.  He only claimed that he was guilty of "lax governance" and did not admit that he was involved or even secretly instructing all this as the mastermind behind the scenes. He claimed that he had no knowledge of the omissions in the salt tax account books.

    "Hmph, XiangThe money he made up could not cover the deficit in the account book. This was quite clever, and it proved that he was only guilty of lax governance.  "Li Song raised his eyes and looked at the sky. The snow was getting heavier and heavier.

    She whispered: "It's cold, don't catch a cold."

    The woman in the wheelchair looked back at her, arched her eyebrows, and responded softly.

    The matter of the salt tax account books is not over yet, and Wei Liang of the Duke of Ling's Mansion is also involved.  After the court meeting, the retired minister Wei Qi personally went to the palace to plead guilty to Emperor Zhaohe, saying, "I failed to teach my son well, which harmed the Wei Dynasty, and I have betrayed the divine grace."  Emperor Zhaohe did not punish him. Instead, he comforted him with some kind words, sent people to send the Duke back to his home, and then gave him rewards.  Immediately afterwards, Emperor Zhaohe ordered the king to be given a gold belt and other rewards.
