The first thousand three hundred and ninety-two chapters copied the villa?
Chapter 1,392: Randomized the Villa?
This was the ultimate move that Cui Yan had prepared for so long.
Yes, it is true that Youjian Villa is still operating, but after the account book was released, Cui Yan unexpectedly discovered that Youjian Villa, which always dealt with these matters as soon as possible in the past, did not do anything this time.
reaction.
In the end, it was the current head of the Zhen family, Zhen Yan, who came forward and reluctantly gave people a reasonable explanation.
Cui Yan knew that Yi Xiaotian must be in Jiangdong at the moment and it was inconvenient to show up, but Guo Jia, who should be there the most, was nowhere to be seen.
So he quickly sent people to investigate the various activities of Youjian Villa in the past six months. This investigation was not important, but it allowed him to discover even more secretive facts.
The direction of capital flow in Youjian Villa in the past six months - countless clues point to Jiangdong, not Wei.
To put this matter into perspective, it can be said that Yi Xiaotian is allocating manpower and funds to support the war he arranged.
But if we look at the bigger picture, who can prove that Yi Xiaotian really used these funds where they should be used?
Instead of spending it where they can't see it...
Collaboration with the enemy.
Cui Yan knew that Cao Cao and Yi Xiaotian had a close relationship, but if Yi Xiaotian was found guilty of collaborating with the enemy, then even if Cao Cao was not happy, he would have to comply with the wishes of his ministers.
Besides, there is still a troublesome problem that Cao Cao has to deal with.
"Okay then... after all, this matter is just the words of an old minister. As for whether it is true or not, I have to ask everyone in the Ministry of Revenue to continue to work hard."
"I believe that this time, the lord will give the Ministry of Household Affairs considerable power to handle this matter, right?"
Cui Yan teased Cao Cao a little and reminded him that it was already at this time, so instead of hiding it, it was better to let the truth be exposed to the world, so that everyone could be informed.
"When the court meeting is over today, Hua Shangshu, you will take people to check the account books of Youjian Villa in the past six months. The flow of funds must also be clear. In addition... Regarding the main personnel of Youjian Villa, when the court meeting is over, I will personally
I am going to write a letter and ask Brother Yi——"
Since Cao Cao has spoken like this, it means that he does not want to get entangled in this matter.
However, Cui Yan still refused to give up and reminded him a little, which finally made Cao Cao's face darken:
"But I would like to mention here, regarding the impact of the general's defeat...the pensions of the soldiers alone are a large sum, and Xiangyang is now facing the danger of Liu Bei's counterattack, which is also a considerable sum.
The large expenditure, if...if we cannot come up with enough money to make up for the shortcomings in a short period of time, it may affect the internal stability of our current state of Wei."
Cui Yan said these words. At this time, in everyone's mind, the investigation of Youjian Villa has become an irreversible matter.
Regardless of whether Youjian Villa has done anything with the account books, Yi Xiaotian is rich anyway. If none of their people are in Yecheng now, depending on the special situation, maybe they really want to do something less kind.
There are lessons for this kind of thing.
During the reign of Emperor Huan, there was a corrupt official named Liang Ji. At that time, he dominated the government and the public and collected countless properties. Even Emperor Huan was promoted to the throne because of his push from behind.
When Emperor Huan was a little older, he finally made up his mind, united with his close ministers, relied on the Imperial Forest Army to launch a sudden attack, and finally forced Liang Ji to death in his own home.
When the family was confiscated, according to final statistics, all of Liang Ji's family wealth was estimated to be worth three billion yuan. This number was even equivalent to half of the annual tax revenue of the entire Han Dynasty at that time.
Cao Cao has not unified the country yet. The prosperous Jiangnan, the powerful Jingzhou, the self-sufficient Shu region - which of these places is not the most prosperous in the entire northern half of the country?
Now Wei's finances have been growing year after year, but it has not yet reached the point where it can be defeated and squandered at will.
At this time, a huge invisible financial source suddenly appeared in front of people. Even if Cao Cao was not willing, the officials forced him to check the assets of Youjian Villa.
What if...what if Youjian Villa really tampered with its account books?
——
The noise in the court hall only lasted for a moment.
Soon everyone became quiet.
Because the next step is the highlight that Cao Cao promised yesterday.
The so-called—reporting of evidence.
…
In fact, since Huang Cheng arrived in Yecheng the day before yesterday, Cui Yan has been extremely eager to know what key evidence this guy has in his hands.
Although in his guess, the other party was probably bluffing, but if something went wrong and he was not prepared, wouldn't he be ruining the rest of the journey with his own hands?
Therefore, he also sent people to investigate the news about Huang Cheng.
only…
Huang Cheng seemed to know that he would be remembered. After arriving in Yecheng that day, he went directly to Xun Yu, who could not even find Cao Cao, for help.
Since Xun Yu left his job as minister, no matter what official position Cao Cao promised him, he would not be moved.
Except for the occasional appearance at Youjian Villa, the rest of the time was spent traveling around the mountains and rivers, which was very uncomfortable.
But it happened that at this time, Xun Yu came back.
With Xun Yu by his side, Huang Cheng didn't know what he said to him, so Xun Yu took him directly to Xun You.
Naturally, he quickly connected with Cao Cao.
This is what happened yesterday when Chao Shang Huang Cheng suddenly appeared and made all kinds of explosive remarks.
Cui Yan was naturally annoyed, but what made him even more annoyed was that Huang Cheng even said that he would take a day off and wait until the next day to present the evidence - this would of course make Cui Yan suspicious of the other party's intentions.
Why wait for a day when you can obviously say it in one breath?
Cui Yan couldn't think of any other explanation other than having a ghost in his heart.
In short, after the investigation was fruitless, Cui Yan could only ask Sima Fu to adapt to circumstances. When Huang Cheng appeared again, no matter what evidence he presented, Sima Fu would respond accordingly.
Fortunately, Huang Cheng had already explained what Cao Pi and Sima Yi had done, so that Sima Fu would not be blinded when he forged evidence.
"Everything requires evidence. When Huang Cheng talked about this matter yesterday, he also said that he had evidence that could prove Pi'er and Sima Yi. So since everyone is here today, we might as well ask him to present the evidence.
, if it is enough to conclude the matter, then there won’t be too much entanglement later.”
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, he was talking about Huang Cheng, but his eyes never left Cui Yan.
As soon as he finished speaking, outside the palace in the distance, Cao Xiu came walking with Huang Cheng.
Everyone looked around and saw that Huang Cheng was holding an indigo blue cloth bag in his hand. Everyone's eyes lit up and they all guessed that the cloth bag should be the evidence Huang Cheng mentioned.
