After saying that, Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan also hurriedly walked out.
As soon as I walked out of the room, I saw Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, talking to Guo Kang, the Censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
"Guo Yushi, Shangshu."
Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan hurriedly said hello with a smile on his face.
Seeing that it was Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan saying hello, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, glanced sideways and said nothing.
Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, smiled slightly and nodded.
Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan wanted to ask but was a little afraid. Finally, he was full of curiosity and asked: "I don't know, you two came to Yu Si, but what...?"
After hearing this, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, also hurriedly replied: "Oh! That's right, I am here on the orders of the two prime ministers to thoroughly investigate the problem of Yu Si's food storage."
"A thorough investigation...?"
Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan was a little panicked, but the expression on his face was very calm.
Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, nodded, glanced at Cen Wenxing, the minister of household affairs, and then turned his eyes to Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan and said, "Yes."
Later, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, looked at Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan, who was wearing a crimson official uniform in front of him, and then continued to ask: "Are you the chief Yu Si of this Yu Si?"
Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan nodded, but said nothing. He looked at Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, with a confused expression.
"Who is Ci Yusi?" Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, asked again.
After hearing the sound, a middle-aged man wearing a scarlet official uniform hurriedly came over and looked about the same age as Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan.
"Guo Yushi, this is my subordinate."
This person is Yu Si's second Yu Si. He is from the fifth rank and his surname is Li Mingzhen. He became this Yu Si two years later than Bai Gaoyuan.
Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, looked at his yellow face and nodded.
"How much of this grain reserve is there now?" Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, asked pretending not to know.
Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs on the side, looked at Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan and Ci Yu Si Li Zhen with an angry look on his face.
With Cen Wenxing, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, being there, Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan couldn't lie, so he had to answer the words of Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, just like he answered Cen Wenxing, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, last time.
"Go back to Guo Censor, seven hundred stones." Yu Sibai Gaoyuan said with a smile on his face.
"How much specifically?!" Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, suddenly said a bit harshly.
"Seven hundred and two stones." Ciyusi Cenzhen on the side answered.
"How many were there a few months ago?" Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, continued.
Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs on the side, also listened with interest.
"Back to Guo Yushi, it's also seven hundred and two stones." Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan said calmly.
As soon as he heard this, Cen Wenxing, the minister of household affairs on the side, couldn't listen anymore and started to curse: "Nonsense! Full of nonsense!"
When Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, said that, although there was no trace of anger on the face of Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan in front of him, there was already a ball of anger in his heart.
However, since it was Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, who came to investigate the case, he certainly knew not to show such anger, so he had to pretend to be ignorant and looked at Cen Wenxing, the minister of household affairs, with unknowing eyes.
"Cen Shangshu, everything the official said is the truth, there is no lie. How can Cen Shangshu conclude that what the official said is a lie without any evidence?" Yu Sibai Gaoyuan said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, was not happy and said bluntly: "You dare to say that you are not talking nonsense?! A few months ago, I came here and asked you about the food storage. At that time, you kept claiming that there was still food left. Twelve thousand stones.”
At this time, Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan pretended to be ignorant and smiled slightly: "Could it be that Cen Shangshu came in and was busy with official matters, and he was confused, right? What the official said at that time was also seven hundred stones. How could there be ten thousand taels?" Qian Shiyi said?"
"you!"
As soon as Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, wanted to continue the debate, he was persuaded by Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu.
"Okay, Cen Shangshu. Since the two prime ministers have asked you and me to jointly investigate the case thoroughly, it's better not to get angry. Everything should be discussed based on the actual evidence."
When Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, said this, Cen Wenxing, the minister of household affairs, had no choice but to retract his anger and looked around with an unconvinced expression.
Before Guo Kang, the imperial censor of Zuodu, could continue to ask questions, Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan asked Li Zhen, the second Yu Si on the side, in an attempt to make him a witness of his own grain storage in front of Yu Si.
"Li Yusi, tell me, what I once said was 12,000 shi of grain? Even so, tell me, did Yu Si have 12,000 shi of grain at that time?"
Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan looked confident and confident.
After hearing this, Li Zhen, the second Yusi, did not hesitate and said: "Bai Yusi did say these words of twelve thousand stones at that time, but the Great Mo War had just subsided not long ago, and before it subsided, Bai Yusi I was busy with Yu Si's affairs that day, so I misremembered the numbers, which is naturally excusable."
After Yu Si Li Zhen's words, Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan was very happy.
However, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, was not happy.
Even if it is true that hearing is false and seeing is believing, the food in Yusidui is not as much as it was a few months ago. The scene is still fresh in my memory, and Cen Wenxing believes in his eyes.
"Even if you said so, how do you explain the grain I saw?! A few months ago, when I came to Yusi, I saw much more grain than now." Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, said in confusion.
Seeing that Cen Wenxing, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, was insistent on this matter and could not let go, and seeing that Guo Kang, the Censor of Zuodu, was still on the side, Yu Sibai Gaoyuan had no choice but to take a risky but the only way to get rid of this crime.
"Since Cen Shangshu insists on not believing it, let's go to the accounting room and look at the account books. As the saying goes: Hearing is false, seeing is believing." Yu Sibai Gaoyuan said with a smile on his face.
After hearing this, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, looked at Cen Wenxing, the minister of household affairs, who was a little angry. He smiled slightly and said, "In that case, let's go and take a look."
"Okay! Let's take a look, I want to see what new tricks I have!"
After saying that, Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, and Guo Kang, the Censor of Zuodu, walked over.
Whether it was the Great Mo Dynasty or several surrounding countries, each country had an accounting room, ranging from the accounting room of the country's household department to the small arithmetic written in black on the wall with black charcoal in poor households.
The only difference is the size and environment of the accounting room, as well as the pen, ink, paper and inkstone used for accounting.
"Boy, this is Yu Si's accounting room."
After saying that, Yu Sibai Gaoyuan walked to the side of a Yu Li and patted his shoulder.
Seeing this, Yu Li turned his head and looked at Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan with a confused expression.
"Bai Yusi."
"Take out the account books from the time we defeated Qi a few months ago to today, and show them to you two."
Hearing Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan's words, the official Yu stood up in a hurry, walked to the wooden cabinet behind him, held a whole key in his hand, and opened it carefully.
