The loss of money from the national treasury has caused a big fuss. It can be said that how tightly it was covered before, how terrible it is when it breaks out now!
No matter how dissatisfied the old emperor was, with Qin Jiyan's tacit approval, teahouses, restaurants, and even people on the streets were discussing the matter, and it was known to everyone.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the old emperor to suppress the matter. He could do nothing but admit it...
The civil and military officials looked at the boxes of silver being carried into the treasury. Everyone looked panicked, and their hands shaking when counting the money were shaking.
They had never heard of such a huge loss of money from the treasury before. They could imagine how powerful the emperor was and how powerful the black hands behind it were.
Jing Yan!
Konko Tamhwaro is a very talented person, a man as noble as a noble son, but just such a man, under the eyes of so many of them, stole hundreds of boxes of money from the national treasury, but
But they didn't notice anything unusual.
They have no face at all!
"Master Feng, what should we do about this matter? The emperor has exposed the loss of money from the treasury at this time. Are you dissatisfied with us?" All the adults understand that the emperor has been hiding it before, fearing that this matter will cause trouble.
When the people are in turmoil, the Northern Qi and Xihu people will take the opportunity to send troops.
Ordinarily, the emperor could have concealed the matter at the time, and could resolve the matter quietly now, but the emperor did not continue to conceal it, which made all the officials very uneasy, especially the officials in the Ministry of Revenue who wanted to commit suicide.
They were the first to bear the brunt of this matter, and they couldn't even take the blame.
"Master Feng, you have to save this old minister, I really don't know..." the Minister of the Ministry of Finance was about to cry.
He really doesn't know anything, and he doesn't get any benefits at all. He doesn't understand the treasury's money at all. Why does it fly out after it's all good?
"Master Feng, what is going on? Are the officials who were involved in the incident related to the loss of money from the treasury? There was a run on Daqin Bank before. Could it be that the money from the treasury was stolen at that time?"
The Minister of Punishment was good at grasping details and immediately found something unusual, and his inference attracted everyone's agreement, "It must be so. Not long after the bank run incident in Da Qin, the emperor sent someone to summon the emperor's grandson, and
It was also at that time that the emperor imprisoned the fifth prince."
"It has been two or three months, and now we know that we are really serving as ministers in vain." A group of veteran ministers felt very ashamed when they thought that such a big thing happened in the bank, but they didn't pay attention at all.
After several familiar officials gathered together to discuss, they went to ask Master Feng for his opinion, "Master Feng, how do you think the emperor will deal with us in this matter?"
"Should we plead guilty? This matter is big or small. Although the money has been recovered, the mastermind has not been found. Tomorrow morning, the emperor will probably attack us."
…
Listening to the ministers' words, Master Feng's face became more and more ugly. If it weren't for his good cultivation and strong psychological support, he would probably collapse at this time.
Da Qin Bank?
Banking crisis?
This is exactly what he made...
He always thought that he was dedicated to Great Qin, and even if he protected Jing Yan, he would not harm Great Qin's interests, but what is the reality?
Even before he knew it, he helped Jing Yan harm Da Qin's interests.
And Jing Yan, who suddenly disappeared and reappeared at last year's Chinese Valentine's Day banquet!
At that time, he didn't think much about it and just thought that Jing Yan wanted to see the palace. Now it seems that he was really too naive. What happened to the emperor's grandson at the Chinese Valentine's Day banquet last year was probably inseparable from Jing Yan, right?
It turned out that, unknowingly, he had become an accomplice.
Listening to the chatter in his ears, Mr. Feng felt as if he was being controlled by someone. He could see the people around him, but couldn't hear what they were saying. He could only see their mouths opening and closing, but he
Can't hear anything...
What's wrong with him?
Master Feng was panicked and opened his mouth to shout, but found that he could not make a sound. It was as if he was not himself but a ghost who had left his body.
At this moment, Master Feng felt that he was being slapped hard. He turned around instinctively and saw the enlarged version of Master Jiao's face.
Master Feng was startled, and finally found his voice: "Master Jiao, is something wrong?"
"Master Feng, are you okay?" Master Jiao asked worriedly, his eyes moving slightly, as if to remind Master Feng.
Although the two of them have been fighting for their whole lives, they will not cheat each other at critical moments. This is their tacit understanding.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Feng, are you okay?" The officials surrounding Mr. Feng also asked one by one, with concern on their faces. As for whether it was true or not, I didn't know.
"I'm fine, I'm sorry for your colleagues to worry." Mr. Feng quickly regained his composure and said calmly: "I was thinking about Mr. Jing and how he lifted the silver from the treasury, so I lost my mind.
, please forgive me."
Master Feng found a perfect excuse for his lack of concentration, and quickly discussed the loss of money from the treasury with everyone. He looked calm and without any flaws, but only he knew that his current state was very bad and he was not suitable at all.
Talking about business matters, especially matters not suitable for talking about Jing Yan.
Every time he heard Jing Yan's name, his heart throbbed, as if someone had pinched him hard, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't breathe.
Master Jiao has cooperated with Master Feng for many years, and they have also been at odds with each other for many years. He understands Master Feng better than most people, but the current situation does not allow him to say more.
In the evening, Master Jiao saw that Master Feng really couldn't hold on any longer, so he asked Master Feng to go back to eat first and come back to change shifts with him later.
Master Jiao and Master Feng have one first assistant and one second assistant. It is normal for the two of them to take turns guarding here, and others will not think too much about it.
If it were in the past, Master Yifeng's diligence would have persisted until the last moment before leaving, but today he was really uneasy, and he was not pretentious when hearing Master Jiao's way of mentioning it.
Master Feng hurried back to Feng Mansion. As soon as he entered the house, he was anxious to see Mr. Feng, but before he stepped into the backyard, he was caught by the servant next to the old man, "Sir, the old man has a distinguished guest and cannot see you.
In addition, the old man asked the little one to tell the adults something: If you mess up, what will others think?"
Lord Feng was startled, and then he realized how suspicious his gaffe was. His face turned red, and Lord Feng immediately calmed down his emotions. No matter how he was tumbling inside, his face returned to his original demeanor, "Tell father, I understand."

In the old man's yard, Qin Jiyan was playing chess with the old man. Black and white stones each occupied half of the chessboard, but it was obvious that the black stones had an advantage over the white stones...
