After clearing the place, there were only six people in the room.
In addition to Chu Qing, there was Wei Changfeng who looked unhappy, Qiu Wanshan who frowned slightly, Zhong Yu, the doctor in the household department, Gong Suntang, the member of the fifth division, and Fu San who was leaning against the door and yawning.
"Shibo, this money is of great use to me, really."
Chu Qing looked at Wei Changfeng with a smile: "Three months, you can get it back in three months at most."
"I know you are useful." Chief Wei said with a snort: "You have already informed the emperor about this matter, but this is the case."
"yes."
"When I was in the Jingyi Hall, I was secretly surprised that the emperor didn't even ask about the use of the money. It turned out that he already had a master."
Wei Changfeng poured a cup of tea and said angrily: "It's okay, I just want to listen to you, where do you want to use this money?"
Chu Qing stood up and saluted Wei Changfeng: "Master Wei, I apologize for my inability to explain."
Calling you "Sir" and claiming to be a lower official, Wei Changfeng's gray hair shook: "You can't even trust me?"
"It's not that I can't believe it, it's just..."
Chu Qing's mouth was secretly bitter, and he didn't know how to explain it for a moment.
Wei Changfeng's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously shouted: "You are going to cause trouble again!"
"It's either causing trouble, or... oh, Shibo, just trust me once and pay it back in three months. As for where it will be used, I really can't tell you right now."
Wei Changfeng closed his eyes and kept shaking his head. He didn't know what he was thinking. He was silent for a long time, and then he said in a deep voice: "Okay, use it, just use it. Don't say that you will pay it back in three months. As long as this Money, you use it wisely..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qiu Wanshan looked at Chu Qing and interrupted: "Chu Qing, you must clearly explain where this money will be used."
Chu Qing rolled his eyes: "Master Wei doesn't even ask, what are you talking about?"
"I am the Right Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. If I don't nod my head, you won't be able to take away a penny of this money!"
Chu Qing looked surprised, looked at Qiu Wanshan who looked completely emotionless and shouted: "Brother Qiu, please stop making trouble, I'm really useful."
"Then tell me where to use it."
"I won't be able to explain it for a while, and if I did... well, I can't explain it, so don't ask."
Qiu Wanshan looked sideways at Zhong Yu and Gongsun Tang: "You two, get out!"
Zhong Yu was indifferent and smiled instead of getting angry: "Master Qiu, although my rank is not as good as yours, my qualifications in this household department are not as good as yours, so I'm sorry that I can't obey my order."
Gongsuntang, who had gray hair and a big beard, was even more exaggerated. He pointed at Qiu Wanshan's nose and cursed: "Master Wei hasn't spoken yet. Why are you trying to show off your authority with me? I won't leave. What do you want?"
Qiu Wanshan was so angry: "I really don't know whether to live or die."
Zhong Yu smiled and said: "You are not the only smart person in this whole hall. Last time, when we helped the refugees, Master Chu took care of it without saying a word. The lower official did not get any credit at all. Forget it if you see him, this time, the official will join in the fun no matter what."
"That's right." Gongsuntang stroked his beard and shook his head and said: "This kid is probably going to cause trouble again. Last time, at least he let us know that he was going to deal with the Li family, but this time, he didn't even dare to say a word. I want to come this time. The person we have to deal with is much more powerful than Li Wenli."
After a pause, Gongsuntang pointed at Chu Qing and cursed: "You bastard, you want to take the money away without even mentioning your name. You are just wishful thinking. Why do you want to take all the credit? Or, in your eyes, there is no such thing." I am a member of the fifth department."
Zhong Yu took a sip of tea and said with a yin and yang look: "I don't know who just said that life is a person from our household department, and death is also a ghost from our household department. It turns out that they were all speaking against their will and wanted to take the credit alone. Hey, the young people today are so arrogant."
Chu Qing was speechless: "Two adults, what's your credit? If you make a mistake, you will be killed..."
Before the word "disaster" was uttered, Chu Qing's expression changed drastically.
Zhong Yu and Gong Suntang seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
How could the two of them not know the depth of the situation until now. If they wanted to get out of the trouble, they would have borrowed a donkey and walked downhill. The more they knew, the more dangerous it became, but these two people did not move. Just smile.
Chu Qing looked at Zhong Yu and Gongsuntang, whom he had barely interacted with, with an moved expression and slightly red eyes.
"Two adults, boy..." Chu Qing choked up slightly, and his heart felt warm, but precisely because of this, he couldn't tell the truth.
Gongsuntang stood up, walked over, patted Chu Qing's shoulder, and said with a chuckle: "I've known Qiu Wan all day long...to hang out with some people with evil thoughts, I will teach you to be a good boy today. If you want to be alone, Trying to turn the tide, something went wrong, and the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor Long Yan were furious..."
"My lord, how do you know that the palace is involved?"
"I'm not stupid. It's about businessmen. It must be related to Zhang Songling. Zhang Songling's backer is in the palace. I heard that you are alone. The Supreme Emperor and the Emperor Long Yan were furious. As soon as Chrysostom opened his mouth, Qianqi Regardless of whether you are the deputy commander of the battalion or the chief minister of the household department, you are considered to be the leader. But besides you, there are one more person to plead guilty to, one more right minister of the household department, one more minister of the household department, and one more person. As for the members of the Fifth Division, the emperor will not dismiss all of us after all. These ten sticks will kill one person if they are hit, but if they hit four people, they will hurt but not die, what do you think? "
Wei Changfeng swore directly: "You bitch, how come you don't pretend to be a good person in front of a baby? Why don't you have a minister? How come I, the minister of household affairs, are worth three or four people."
Chu Qing gritted his teeth tightly, took three steps back, straightened his clothes, bent down and saluted, but could not say a word.
At this moment, he was extremely happy. Fortunately, when he entered the officialdom, he came from the Ministry of Revenue and not from other government offices.
He didn't even know the names of Zhong Yu and Gong Sun Tang, but they were familiar with each other. Privately, he always felt that these two people were a little bit quarrelsome. They were walking like crabs every day because of their seniority, and they were even better than him. Arrogant.
Wei Changfeng stood up, walked forward, personally helped Chu Qing up, and said eight words.
"Doing good deeds without asking for reward."
Zhong Yu and Gong Suntang also said in unison: "But do good deeds and don't ask about the future."
Qiu Wanshan only moved his lips but said nothing, looking troubled.
Chu Qing nodded heavily: "Students will keep it in mind and never forget it for the rest of their lives."
"Okay, good boy." Wei Changfeng turned his head and looked at Qiu Wanshan and the others: "Then the household department, let's make a plan."
Zhong Yu and Gongsuntang looked at each other, smiled and nodded slightly.
Chu Qing walked forward quickly, picked up the teapot, added some tea to the four of them one after another, and then stood in the middle.
"Young boy Chu Qing, I want to cut off the income from the palace!" Chu Qing's eyes were burning and he said loudly: "But after cutting off the income from the palace, the common people have income!"
Qiu Wanshan sighed: "When you asked me who the backer of Zhang Songling was, I knew that this day would come sooner or later, so why bother?"
"Don't try to inflate others' prestige." Gongsun Tang said to Chu Qing, "Go on, baby."
"If things are done, the Emperor and the Emperor may hold grudges against me in their hearts."
Qiu Wanshan added another sentence: "Then you still have to do it, and you always don't know whether to live or die."
"If I do it, the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor may hate me in their hearts, but if I don't do it, I will hate myself for the rest of my life."
Chu Qing's face showed a slightly ferocious expression: "In the south of the city, the refugees were in ragged clothes, kneeling and praying. In Qu Mansion, the young man who had just been bought into the mansion fell in a pool of blood. Crying for help, in Zhang Mansion, the woman wanted to hug her chest, but was hit hard on the low table. She smiled and shed tears. In Qianqiying Yamen Office, Jiuniang swallowed her saliva and said she wanted to Eat white-flour steamed buns, and... A few days ago, when I was in Tai'anfang, a courtier went to court. The bearer suddenly got off the sedan and was in a hurry. He said that he had lost six penny and was about to cry. The courtier in the sedan chair He scolded and scolded him repeatedly. When he heard that it was only six cents, the expression of the courtier in the sedan must be very contemptuous. He said it was only six cents. How dare the bearer of the sedan miss the time for him to go to court? After all, He opened the sedan curtain and kicked the bearer hard on the waist..."
Chu Qing turned his head and looked at Fu San who was leaning against the door and window: "Three, what did you say to me at that time?"
"The young man said that no one knows how the bearer got the six cents, and no one thinks about what the bearer will use the six cents for."
Chu Qing clenched his fists: "My lords, I, Chu Qing, want to let the world know what a mere six cents means to the common people!"
