But he said that soon an official suddenly fell ill and was about to retire. He wanted to arrange a position for his son who had no future. He found a few people who had worked with him that day and asked them to help. As a result, those people did not want to wade into this muddy water and did not plan to

He wanted to help, so the official became unhappy and said that he was going to quit. People who are barefoot will not be afraid of people who wear shoes. If they don't help him, he will expose what they did that day and then his family will be unlucky.

Well, those people can't even think about it.

In fact, it was a threat, because if he said it, it would not do any good to his family.

However, their family came from a small family, and he was about to retire, and the children in the family had no future and were completely in decline.

Although the last time the Wang family was ransacked, he received one to two million taels of silver, but since no one in the family was an official in the court, the money could easily be taken away once someone knew about it.

At that time, there were so many people involved in dividing the spoils, and the news that their family was rich would spread out sooner or later. In other words, if no one in the family was an official, the money would be lost sooner or later, so there must be an official in the family to support it.

——Although they were greedy for a total of 100 million taels of silver, there were too many people involved, and they were divided here and sealed there. It was considered good if he could divide one or two million taels of silver.

Moreover, it is difficult to keep money, and if your children and grandchildren fail to live up to expectations, you will be a prodigal, no matter how much money you have, you can lose.

On the contrary, if you become an official, even if you are incompetent, as long as you stay honest, your official position will not be lost and you will have a guarantee, so he wanted to find a position for his son.

It is also not good for him to have too high expectations for his son. He had always hoped that his son would make achievements in the imperial examination, so he wanted to wait until his son won the imperial examination. Even if he did not win the imperial examination, he would still win the imperial examination. Who knows, after so many years,

However, my son never passed the exam, which made him waste his time in vain.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly fell ill and could not recover, so he had to retire. At this time, he realized that he had not arranged a way out for his sons, so he hurriedly looked for help.

I thought that since I hadn't retired yet, those people would help me because of my face and because I still had the leverage.

Unexpectedly, they were so indifferent. They saw that he was sick, about to retire, and that his family was about to fall into disrepair, so they treated him lightly. How could he not be angry?

It is said that the tea becomes cold when people leave, but this is a good thing for him. The tea becomes cold before he leaves.

If that's the case, then let's have a mutual destruction.

It is going to decline anyway, so if you tell me, although it will be harmful to yourself, it will be more harmful to those families, because they have not retreated and are still serving as high-ranking officials in the government.

In fact, it is precisely because he comes from a small family. If he quits, his children will have no future, the family will be completely in decline, and other people will not want to help. If his family is a big family, how can those people dare to refuse.

Of course, if it is a big family, there is no need to find these people who have the handle on him. It is estimated that just anyone can help his son arrange things. After all, the dynasty has been running for more than a hundred years, and it has become more and more mature.

It has become corrupt, and it is common for people to run for official positions. People with power can easily find something for their children to do.

Those who were threatened by him did not take his words to heart at all. They felt that he was just making threats and did not dare to tell them. After all, if he said it, even if he had merit in reporting, the emperor would not punish him, but he was

The one or two million taels they took will definitely have to be handed over, and then they will definitely lose their official position immediately, and they won’t be able to wait until they become official. By then, they will have no money and lose their official position. How will their family live in the future? No.

Just say it casually.

The official who wanted to retire due to illness was really just planning to threaten him, because as they said, if this matter was really exposed, his money would be gone, and his family's life would be even more difficult.

But at this moment, seeing everyone treating him like this, and not caring about him even threatening them, the anger in my heart grew higher and higher, and I really wanted to poke him out.

But...he still couldn't win the battle to the death, so although seeing each team's performance made him hate it to death, he has been hesitating and has not made up his mind.

Seeing his hesitation, Linlang was ready to "help" him.

It just so happened that the money the emperor borrowed from the Wang family last time was almost spent - although it was tens of millions, the emperor was exempted from taxes for one year when he received the money. In this way, the fiscal expenditure for that year was used.

This is the money.

After that, they began to build large-scale water conservancy projects, and sent troops to deal with the Hu people who had been harassing the border. The Hu people had been harassing the border before, but because the expenditure of sending troops was very high and finances were tight, they always focused on defending and guarding the borders.

The general will rarely lead his soldiers to attack.

Now that he had money, the emperor bought a lot of horses and trained cavalry. When the barbarians came to harass the border again, he sent troops to beat the barbarians.

Because they had money, good equipment, and the fact that the Hu people were used to harassing the border, the Central Plains court would not attack. They thought it would be the same this time and lost their guard, so they successfully attacked the Hu people.

Whether it was building water conservancy projects or sending troops to fight, they all cost money, so the tens of millions were quickly spent.

Now the court is tight again, so at this time, if these people's greedy money is taken out, the court will have money again. Moreover, this time, the water conservancy has been almost repaired, and the war has been fought, unlike before.

There are too many places to spend money. This time there are fewer places to spend money. This money can be used for a long time.

Thinking of this, Linlang did as she said.

However, it was said that the official who was about to retire from illness was still hesitating, so the emperor received a secret report from Linlang.

I heard that the Wang family, which he had taken all precautions against, was ransacked, but in the end someone took away a huge sum of 100 million. Naturally, the emperor was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

He thought he had taken good precautions and copied out more than 100 million, and was very proud of it. However, someone actually took away 100 million, which was almost the same as what he got.

These people were greedy for so much money, so naturally the emperor was very angry.

At that time, the emperor sent people to secretly investigate and found that there was indeed something wrong with the money these people spent. He immediately understood that the anonymous report letter was true, and immediately decided to copy the money mentioned in the report letter to several people.

, and then punish these people severely, so that they dare to do such a thing.

If these people got money and didn't use it for a while, the emperor might not notice it, but it's a pity that after getting so much money, who can bear to not use it at all, and once they use it, they often can't control it, because spending money is easy to become addicted.

, so people will find that their expenses are completely inconsistent with their income, which is normal.

In fact, they did not dare to use it at first for fear of being discovered, but later they wanted to use the money and used it secretly, but found that the emperor did not move. Obviously, the emperor did not find that their family was greedy for money, so as time went by, they
