During dinner, Fan Wen came in and had a meal.
"Your Majesty, I ordered Dr. Sun to check the records. There are many violations..."
Li Po took a sip of wine and said, "Since I have left all the affairs of the sect in your hands, there is no need to report small matters to me. When Feng Qing was there, the sect was always in order. After his death, there will inevitably be chaos in the sect."
.”
Fan Wenjin immediately understood what the emperor meant. Even if Feng Deyi's affairs were verified, they would not be pursued.
Lao Fan sighed in his heart, if he could do what he did to Feng Deyi, his life would really be worth it. Look, even though everyone is gone, the emperor is still willing to protect his reputation after his death.
Fan Wenjin stopped talking nonsense, "What I want to report to Your Majesty is that there are thirteen doubts about the suppression of the Eucalyptus Sect through the hands of Changsun Shilang. One of them involves a petition from Luoyang and has been suppressed for a month.
According to the memorial at that time, they were preparing to return the land around Luoyang. They were just waiting for the court's permission. I privately ordered people to go and inquire, and finally returned the seven mansions in Luoyang City to the home of Minister Sun.
How many acres of land.
The people involved in this matter should not only be Changsun Shilang’s family, most of them are from Luoyang..."
Fan Wenjin first started with this incident, indicating that the matter was quite serious. He wanted to use it as an introduction, and his intention to target Changsun Shunde to death was already obvious.
Li Po's expression remained calm. This was a typical way of using public affairs for personal gain. If the eldest grandson Shunde wanted to recover his ancestral property in Luoyang, he didn't have to do anything so mean.
But he still has his followers, so naturally he wants everyone to work together to make profits. They have a month to do anything in advance. The matter is actually not a big deal, and it is in line with Li Po's understanding of the nobles of the world. It shows a sense of greed.
the taste of.
The only thing that made Li Po a little annoyed was that after Yuan Zhen pacified Henan in the third year, he repeatedly signaled to the people from Luoyang to go back to Henan to buy property and resume production, but there was no big movement.
It was not until the fifth year of Yuanzhen that the world became peaceful, and people started to feel excited. However, many fertile fields and fertile soil near Luoyang were given to the soldiers who were stationed in the fields, and there was not much left.
Li Po asked, "When did this happen?"
Fan Wenjin replied: "At the beginning of last year."
Li Po took two deep breaths and suppressed the anger in his heart. The sixth year of Yuanzhen was such a good time. He was preparing to raise his troops to attack Goguryeo. The war between the two countries was imminent.
The entire Tang Dynasty will wait and see.
As a minister and one of the important officials in the court, the eldest grandson Shunde is still thinking about how to get back his ancestral property? It really belongs to you...
Moreover, if the information is obtained in advance, more may be taken away. If we really pursue the investigation, some people in Luoyang will definitely not be able to escape.
Alas, what a rotten fish that made the pot full of fishy fish.
Changsun Shunde, Changsun Shunde, after all you are from a famous family and are not young at all. How could you do such a scandal?
"anything else?"
Fan Wenjin looked at the emperor's face and couldn't tell anything, so he could only try harder. He had made a lot of "slanders" when he was in Liangzhou, so he didn't have any psychological burden on this.
"There are also two submissions from the Ministry of Personnel. They are about redundant officials, involving the Ministry of Husbandry and the Ministry of Rites. They were suppressed for several days. I also asked people to secretly inquire about the people involved during those days.
There are many external transfers.
There are also seven memorials sent to me by Zhongshu. Six of them are about land reform. I don’t know why Changsun Shilang suppressed them. There is also one petition from Pei Hongda of Luoyang, which was forwarded to Zhongshu.
.
When he mentioned that he wanted to deal with several corrupt officials, he himself was slightly ill at the time..."
Li Po waved his hand. He knew about this matter. It happened at the beginning of this year. Not only did Pei Ju himself submit a letter, but Wei Zheng, the chief historian of Luoyang, also reported it privately. It is self-evident what he was worried about. Pei Ju was too old and wanted the court to be early.
prepare for.
Li Po took a sip of wine, gritted his teeth and laughed, "What is this all for? Do you understand?"
These memorials were all meant to be presented directly to the emperor, but they were suppressed by Changsun Shunde. One or two of them may be due to negligence, or there may be something wrong in them that requires him, the servant, to consider them. So many memorials are blocking the way.
It would be too abnormal for him to be here.
Fan Wenjin had only been serving under the sect for a short period of time, and he didn't know much about the emperor's habits. Seeing his bright smile, he was quite doubtful. Doesn't His Majesty care about it?
"It's not easy to get back and forth from Luoyang in winter, and I don't know what's going on inside."
Li Po nodded and asked, "Where are the remaining items? Shangshu Province, Jiu Temple? Or even military matters?"
Uh... Fan Wenjin said your guess was really accurate.
"One thing is from the Shangshu Province. There is something concealed in Luoyang about the payment of field taxes in the Ministry of Husbandry. The Ministry of Hunan is investigating. The matter involves the in-laws of the eldest grandson. The Henan Taoist Judge Tian Hongzhi, he and the eldest grandson are in-laws.
.
The Ministry of Household Affairs found out that he had falsely reported the acres of land and concealed the land registration information, and reported it to the provincial government. They wanted to jointly investigate with the inspectorate and the temple, but in the end there was no real evidence, so they gave up."
It was Henan again, and Li Po felt that Changsun Shunde was hanging around in the province. He didn't do any serious work all day long, so he knew that he was digging holes and stealing holes. It was really hard for him.
This is not over yet, Fan Wenjin continued: "The other thing is that at the beginning of this autumn, General Qu Tutong, the commander-in-chief of Daizhou's march, received a military report that all the weapons, food and grass that he was ordered to deliver to the Turks were ready.
To be cautious, he wanted the Ministry of War to send someone to investigate, but for some reason, he was suppressed by Changsun Shilang for seven days before he was sent to Tai Chi Hall."
The corners of Li Po's eyes twitched. He dared to hold such an important military report in his hand. He was really brave.
And that was when Fan Wenjin had just taken office, and Changsun Shunde was very easy to do...
Fan Wenjin was furious, "This last matter may be a personal grudge. Not long ago, Sun Wuji, the minister of Dali Temple, submitted a letter to resign, but the minister of the eldest grandson suppressed it for three days."
Huh? Li Po immediately noticed something was wrong. The quarrel between the uncle and nephew of his eldest son, Shunde, was so big that it was almost known to everyone. If his eldest son, Wuji, wrote a letter to resign, why did his eldest son, Shunde, write his nephew's resignation letter?
Pressed in hand?
Do you not want your nephew to resign?
Why did Changsun Wuji resign? Is it because the corruption in the examination room was traced to his uncle? Is this related to Changsun Shunde?
Li Po pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "It's shocking. The people in the province under my command are my attendants. They were chosen improperly and there were some shortcomings.
Huh, this is not the fault of Changsun Shunde alone. How could he dare to act recklessly without the help of his party members? I didn't let him succeed to the position of servant before, so it seems that I did the right thing."
The emperor made the final comment, and Fan Wenjin felt relaxed.
Speaking ill of colleagues in private, even with the emperor's permission, can easily lead to backlash. He knew this very well.
