Chapter 224 Crime of Private Coal hoarding

Han Qi himself doesn't care about whether Wang's side resigns or not, but according to his views on Wang's side, he is very strange how this boy who knows money got the favor of Renzong. At present, Prime Minister Bao has passed away, and Wang Anshi is no longer an official. It seems that this boy has no backer and can't let Zeng Gongliang become a backer next to the king. "This is not OK, if the emperor asks the king to do something now, I'm afraid that the boy will raise conditions again. Now if he is credited with merit, I'm afraid that the emperor will get half the result with more results in order to kill a hundred things.

"Oh, how can the king talk about the conditions with the emperor? Besides, I heard that the people are short of coal to spend the winter this year. If the unruly people make trouble, I'm afraid it will not be easy to end. The emperor still put the people first. Although the king is rich, he has also done a lot of good things. Cold and warm is a big thing, and the Holy Lord should think twice."

The king's side has been suppressed more and more refined since he was born. Originally, it was nothing more than new officials who helped him speak and make friends with him. Later, there were some governors, county magistrates and so on. Renzong liked him, but the Privy envoy and the prime minister began to make trouble. Now the two prime ministers also quarreled because of the king, and there are rumors that this guy and The relationship between the king of Xixia in the State of Liao is good. Yingzong really has a headache about how to deal with Wang. "Don't quarrel. If he wants to do business, he can do business. There is no need to mention the matter of Jinxiang Mansion."

Hearing what the emperor said, the two prime ministers were quiet. Han Qi thought that he could not be the enemy of Zeng Gongliang for the sake of a king, so he said slowly and said, "Your Majesty, the previous emperor had an order to give a hundred hectares of land next to the king. Instead of waiting for him to come to the land, it is better for the emperor to turn the Jinxiang Mansion to him. First of all, it seems that the emperor is generous. Second, if he operates or can improve the lack of coal supply in Jinxiang Mansion, I think Jinxiang Mansion also has his painstaking efforts, and it is not an exaggeration for the court to reward him with meritorious deeds. As for what Zeng Xiang said, it is not unreasonable.

Zeng Gongliang is also an old officialdom. Seeing that Han Qi gave in, he also gave up half a step. It is not easy to do anything between the prime ministers. At present, the top priority is to suppress the new emperor not to do anything because of the matter of the discussion, so he also said, "Exactly, Han Xiang is still considerate of the people and can help the emperor relieve the worries."

The two talked to themselves and sang together. Yingzong secretly scolded in his heart: The two old things were so tacit that they could not be led by these two people to do anything they wanted to do. But if Emperor Yingzong did not give in, it seemed that the emperor of his country did not measure it. "Well, since the two prime ministers said so, then the two Looking at the treatment, if I want to return to the imperial gift, I won't investigate the matter of Jinxiang Mansion. You can retreat.

The two prime ministers took the order out of the hanging arch hall and went to the Shangshu Mansion together. Zeng Gongliang said, "Thank you, Prime Minister Han, for just agreeing to me and speaking frankly."

Han Qi had a big belly, shook her fat body, and walked with a ribbon in her hand and said, "At our age, there is no need to be the enemy of future generation. Moreover, you didn't see that the boy next to the king had a relationship with King Ying. You said that the emperor's holy body was not good. I guess the prince will be established soon. If the king of Ying is established in the future, I'm afraid we The old bones have to watch the boy act.

Zeng Gongliang echoed and said, "Han Xiang is far away from it. I didn't think about it. I just think that this boy must be extraordinary if he can make the Song famous in various countries."

"Oh, by the way, Zeng Xiang, why don't I know that you lost the volume of "General Wu Jing"?" Han Qi asked doubtfully,

"Hey, how can it be lost? It hasn't been written at all. Those two articles only have a table of contents." Zeng Gongliang said,

Han Qi was shocked when she heard it: "Zeng Xiang, you are guilty of deceiving the king."

Zeng Gongliang pointed to Han Qi and laughed: "Han Xiang, why are you confused. You want to send Kirin to each other in those years, because one of them died in my Song Dynasty. Are you looking for the unhappearances of my Song Dynasty? At that time, Emperor Renzong was still there. The former emperor wanted to send people to sweep the south by the loss of the chapter, but the king persuaded him to surrender to the south after the wind. This time, the king sent an envoy to Goryeo, and the southern navy helped the king attack the Japanese slaves. The strength of the navy was great. The emperor wanted to take this opportunity to check whether there was collusion with Jiaozhi in the south and let the king go. The king was far away from the capital. His reputation could also deter Jiaozhi and appease you. This is not a happy thing for everyone. "

Han Qi laughed and said, "Haha, it's no wonder that Emperor Renzong personally ordered Zeng Xiang to write the General Headquarters of Wujing. What kind of tricks can he use?"

"This is to relieve hatred and use people, follow the way of heaven and earth, and choose the method of generals. Although the king is young, it is indeed a rare way to choose a general. Only the way to judge his talents can be used. Guan Zhong shoots hooks, and Qi Weigong let him dominate; Meng Ming was defeated three times, and Qin Miao was pardoned to win; Rong Tuo was pulled out in Han Wei, and Wu Qi was used for the brigade;..."

The two prime ministers nagging back to the Shangshu Mansion, leaving Song Yingzong stunned in the hanging arch hall. When he was not the emperor, there was no way to take the king's side. Why is there still no way to take the king's side when he became the emperor?

In the evening, the Meyer Mansion was lively, and the people who went out to do business came back. Everyone found that today's Wang side was a little more cheered up than yesterday. At dinner, the king side explained something. In the dead of night, several people quietly came out of the Meyer House and wrote a line of words with honey on the wall facing the street of Kaifeng Mansion. < /P>

At dawn the next day, a strange thing happened in the capital. Some people said that there were many ants on the wall of Kaifeng Mansion along the street, and the words were arranged. This matter spread all over the streets and alleys for a while. Many people trotted to see it. Sure enough, it was written on the wall of Kaifeng Mansion, "The treacherous minister hid coal and plotted high profits. The capital was urgent to burn coal. Solution outside the door of Weizhou.

If this had been changed to an ordinary government office, there would have been someone to clean it up, but Kaifeng Prefecture has always had the prestige of Prime Minister Bao at that time, which is related to the people's livelihood. Which government official dares to clean it up privately? The guard of Kaifeng Prefecture hurried to report to Li Shen, the magistrate of Kaifeng Prefecture. Li Shen watched it in person.

This matter is of great importance. Li Shen ordered the government official to go outside the Weizhou gate to investigate. The government official came back and reported that there was indeed a coal yard outside the Weizhou Gate, and there were many people who heard the news outside the coal farm to find out what was going on. Seeing that the coal inside was piled up like a mountain, the people were excited and shouted to grab coal. Li Shen hurriedly ordered people to temporarily close the coal yard. Check and send someone to investigate who owns the coal farm,

In the busy morning, the owner of the coal farm was Qin Minzhi, the servant of the Ministry of Household. This is the red man in front of the emperor today. Li Shenzheng thought that this matter was a little troublesome. The bodyguard sent a note saying: "The people are like ants, and the Ministry of Household should be impeached, the three divisions should be purged, and the new official will be held accountable."

Li Shen is also a smart person. The new official took office three times. This new official refers to Cai Xiang, the envoy of the three divisions. It seems that this note is for himself to find Cai Xiang. Li Shen took the note to visit Cai Xiang in person,

Cai Xiang listened to Li Shen's intention and immediately sent someone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to check whether the coal used by the royal family had arrived this winter. This had to be ruled out that this was the coal supply from the imperial city. It was found that the use of the palace had long been prepared. The coal was undoubtedly hoarded without permission. Now we all know that it is difficult to buy coal in the capital. No matter how the people are, even the officials of all sizes have no use coal. I heard that someone was hiding it privately. With so much coal, Cai Xiang is also very angry,

"I'm going to play the emperor, please be clear." Cai Xiang said while writing a memorial. Li Shen hurriedly stopped and said, "Junmo, wait a little. I have found out that the temporary coal yard in Weizhou City was done by Qin Shilang of the Ministry of Household, but this coal is the coal of Jinxiang Mansion. Go to the emperor like this. In case the Qin Shilang says that this coal is for seizure, not only can't be caught, but also I will look at this Kaifeng for a few days. The people in the house can't stand it any longer. In case of a heavy snow, maybe a few people will freeze to death.

"What should I do according to the Qing minister's opinion?" Cai Xiang asked

Li Shen is not as anxious as when he first received this matter. For a long time, he has been thinking about it over and over again. The matter is not so simple: "I see that the person who writes a note and makes an ant typep number on the wall of Kaifeng Mansion, since he can trace the Qin Shilang of the Ministry of Household, it is by no means the work of ordinary people. The reason why he provokesentment is probably Xi. I hope that Kaifeng Mansion will work for the people. I will ask Junmo to review it with three duties. If it is illegal and private hoarding, it can be ordered to be sold first, and then verified. If it is indeed only for profit from reselling, it can be known that it is a minor crime, but if it involves corruption and law, it will be impeachment.

After listening to it, Cai Xiang also felt that it was reasonable. He also felt that the ant typewriting was a little interesting. Who is this? He actually did the same thing as his bee typeding in those years. When the two came to Kaifeng Mansion, they saw the people surrounded the people on the three floors inside and outside. The people looked at them and scolded: "These corrupt officials are really abominable. They use their power to favoritism. Fraud, regardless of the people's cold and warm, should be killed, should be killed.

Cai Xiang and Li Shen looked at each other. Li Shen smiled helplessly. Cai Xiang's heart lit up: "Li Zhifu, I heard that Wang Shilang had returned to Beijing in the early morning today."

Li Shen said, "It must have been done by this boy. Why didn't I think of it?" The two of them looked at each other and smiled. If what others did, they should think about it. If it was really what the king did, there was nothing to think about. The people's voice was so high. What are they waiting for? Li Shen ordered: "Come on, go and take the owner of the coal yard outside Weizhou Gate, please come to Kaifeng Mansion."

It's polite to say a request. Qin Minzhi certainly didn't expect that his new boss was also waiting for him in Kaifeng Mansion,

Qin Minzhi came to Kaifeng Mansion. When he saw that he wanted to sell coal at a high price, he thought about going to pass today first and find a way later. He hurriedly argued, "That coal is to be sold, but it's not too late."

Cai Xiang almost threw the transferred accounts on Qin Minzhi's face: "You are so bold. This batch of coals are saying that they want to be sold. The household department does not have the number of coals seized for official reasons. Obviously, you have sebbled and hoarded coals without permission, and how dare you argue?"

Qin Minzhi immediately had no words. He wrote in black and white to understand how much coal was seized and where to send it. The origin of the coal in the coalfield outside Weizhou City was really unknown, so he had to bow his head and pleaded guilty. Qin Minzhi pleaded guilty to private coal for profit. The governor of Kaifeng immediately asked Cai Xiangte to allow the coal farm outside Weizhou City to sell coal to the people. < /P>

Now the people are very happy. They are carrying poles, and the rich ones rush their donkeys to the coal farm to queue up to buy coal. The whole capital is boiling,
