In fact, Chen Hanying, the Minister of Accounts, was very good at falsifying accounts. The Accounts Department audited the accounts every year, but was not discovered.
It's just that Chen Hanying had a bad life and met the evil star Long Chen.
After the implementation of the double-entry accounting method, the balance of the accounts is clear at a glance, and the false accounts cannot be covered up and all are uncovered.
Therefore, Jing Heng placed the blame on Long Chen.
He had done a lot of damage to the Ministry of Household Affairs. Jing Heng was angry from the bottom of his heart and evil from the side of his courage. He suggested that Long Chen should take over as the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
As soon as these words came out, the court was like a drop of water in a frying pan, and it immediately exploded.
"The Minister of Household Affairs is an important position, how can we let a eunuch hold it?"
"Long Chengen is already the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, how can he serve as the Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry again?"
"There are two ministers for one person, which has never happened since the founding of our dynasty."
"Such a thing has never happened not only in our dynasty, but also in all countries in the world."
The ministers in the DPRK and China were all opposed, and no one agreed.
The reason for the objection is very simple. Long Chen is an eunuch and serves as two ministers. This is a big joke.
Seeing the fierce opposition from the ministers, Long Chen came out and paid homage: "Your Majesty, the humble minister is just a broken body. It is already difficult to serve as Minister of the Ministry of Industry. The Ministry of Household Affairs is really not something that a humble minister can do."
"Thank you Master Jing for your recommendation. Long's abilities are really limited."
Long Chen took the initiative to step out and refuse. The Ministry of Finance was now a big mess. These ministers thought they were just a bunch of idiots.
"Weichen believes that a veteran minister with high moral character and high prestige in the DPRK should be selected as the new Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, so that the Ministry of Revenue can be revitalized and the deficit problem can be solved."
"For example, Mr. Li is a veteran of two dynasties, and Mr. Wan is proficient in accounting. They are both excellent candidates."
It was these two old guys who had the loudest opposition just now, so Long Chen turned around and asked them to do it.
The two of them were startled and said quickly: "Your Majesty, we are old and frail and cannot hold the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Please choose another candidate."
The empress was displeased and said, "Then would you recommend one?"
Master Li and Master Wan lowered their heads and said nothing.
Recommendations are usually a good thing, but now recommendations are harmful to people, so they wouldn't be so stupid.
There was silence in the court, no one spoke.
Jing Heng added: "Your Majesty, the household department is very important. Looking at the world, the most suitable candidate is Long Chengen."
"Last year during the civil war, Nanliang invited Yu Shinan, the leader of the scribes, and Long Cheng'en was able to defeat him as soon as he entered the palace."
"Later on, when Linjiang City was conquered, I heard that it was Long Chengen who came up with a strange plan. Later, the problems of burning firewood and building the city were all problems that we had been unable to solve for decades. Long Chengen was able to resolve them one by one."
"Now there is a huge deficit in the Ministry of Revenue, and the whole country is in trouble. Only Long Chengen can solve it."
"Therefore, Wei Chen recommended Long Cheng'en to be the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."
The achievements just mentioned are all great achievements.
If he hadn't known that Hubu was a mess, Long Chen would really have thought that Jing Heng was his little fanboy.
The empress looked at Long Chengen, then at the ministers in the court, and asked: "What about you? Do you agree or disagree?"
This time, no one spoke.
The Ministry of Finance is indeed a mess, let this eunuch take the blame.
No one objected.
The empress said: "Long Chengen, what do you think?"
Long Chen said loudly: "I have little talent and little knowledge, and I can't do anything!"
Such a mess must be rejected.
But Jing Heng kept chasing after him and said, "Long Chengen, you were so capable before, why are you so timid this time? Is it because you have exhausted your talents?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "Sir Jing, the household department is in your hands and the loss is in your hands. You have hands and feet, why do you want me to wipe your butt?"
Jing Heng was hit in a sore spot and said angrily: "I don't manage well. If you have the ability, you can take care of it!"
Long Chen laughed and said: "I don't have the ability, you can go alone!"
Jing Heng was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick. He originally thought that using the provoking method would anger Long Chen and throw this mess out, but he didn't expect that Long Chen was a piece of candy. You can say whatever you want, but I won't accept it.
Di Luoxi couldn't stand it anymore and came out and said: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue is currently experiencing a huge deficit. If you let Long Chengen take over at this time, isn't this a trap?"
"Besides, even if Long Chengen closes the household department, some people will come to pick peaches again."
Jing Heng knew he was talking about himself and immediately said: "If Long Chengen can manage the household department well and fill up the deficit, then the household department will be given to Long Chengen."
Di Yu said angrily: "How impudent! In the imperial government office, you can give it to whomever you say!"
Jing Heng really forgot about himself and regarded the Ministry of Revenue as his Jing family's personal yamen.
Jing Heng snorted and said nothing.
But the empress said: "Well, I will explain it clearly in front of the ministers of the court."
"Long Chengen concurrently serves as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. If the deficit problem can be solved, the position of the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue will be held by Long Chengen from now on. You must not object."
"Jing Heng, do you agree?"
Jing Heng glanced at Long Chen with evil intentions and said loudly: "Wei Chen agrees! I'm afraid someone won't dare to accept it!"
The empress asked the ministers in the court again: "Do you have any opinions?"
The ministers in the court hesitated, saying that the Minister of Household Affairs was a very important government office that managed all the taxes, taxes, and money of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and they wanted them all.
But right now, the Ministry of Finance is a big mess, and no one dares to take over it.
"Do you agree?"
The empress asked loudly.
Master Li and Master Wan said: "If Long Chengen can solve it, we will agree."
The empress nodded slightly, and finally asked Long Chen: "Long Chengen, what about you?"
Jing Heng sneered: "Someone doesn't dare!"
Long Chen sneered and bowed: "Wei ministers accept the decree!"
hiss...
The ministers in the DPRK all looked sideways. They didn't expect Long Chen to really take the call.
The Household Department has a deficit of 7 million taels. Even if we save money every year in the future, it will take at least 7 or 8 years to make up for it.
In addition, Sifanglou intends to suppress the taxes of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and Nanliang is determined to take back Linjiang City. Whether there is a surplus every year is still a big problem.
The empress was very happy and said: "Long Chengen is worthy of being the pillar of my court, able to accept orders in times of crisis."
"From today on, Long Chengen will also serve as the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs to resolve the deficit."
At this moment, Jing Heng jumped out again and said: "Your Majesty, we have to set a time to solve the household deficit within one year."
"We can't delay it for ten or twenty years. Long Chengen has been serving as the Ministry of Household Affairs for ten or twenty years. There must be an explanation."
Other ministers agreed one after another, saying that there must be a time limit.
Di Luoxi was furious and cursed: "Fart! You can solve the deficit in one year!"
Jing Heng was also unhappy and sneered: "Why do the fourth princesses protect a eunuch so much? Is it possible that the rumors from the outside are true?"
There are rumors in the outside world that Long Chen is not actually a eunuch, but a man who lives in the harem and acts as the leader.
The empress's eyes turned cold and she scolded: "Jing Heng! Be careful what you say! How unbecoming would it be to bring gossip from the outside world into the court!"
Jing Heng sneered and retreated, but still said: "If the ministers don't say it, the outside world will."
Di Luoxi was so angry that she wanted to draw her sword and chop Jing Heng.
Long Chen chuckled and said: "Master Jing, I also heard a rumor, do you want to listen to it?"
