Chapter 1735 Confiscation of property
Ask as if chatting.
Chu Heng: "Nothing busy, just ordinary business."
Seeing that he was unwilling to answer the question, Qi Shangshu felt a little unhappy, and suddenly smiled and said: "I heard that a thief came to the door recently? I don't know if Master Chu will deal with it?"
"It's been dealt with." Chu Heng glanced at him lightly, this time he didn't avoid the topic, and replied bluntly, both of them understood what it meant.
When Qi Shangshu saw that Chu Heng had admitted, his heart burst into anger, and he affirmed his conjecture. Sure enough, the matter of the Gao family was a trap set up by Chu Heng from the beginning. Years, clearly an old fox.
Qi Shangshu couldn't help but think of the former Zheng Guogong, who seemed to be as smart as an old fox not long after entering the officialdom, and has always been able to handle tasks with ease.
If it hadn’t been for the fact that he was getting old all these years, standing in line impatiently, and having thoughts that he shouldn’t have, he wouldn’t have been caught by the tail by Chu Heng, angering Emperor Xuanming and being eradicated.
Qi Shangshu originally thought of Chu Heng as a pretty good smart man, and also Emperor Xuanming's sword.
But at this moment, he didn't dare to think that way anymore. This person... is definitely not just the sword of Emperor Xuanming.
Qi Shangshu wanted to win over, smiled and said: "Master Chu is very capable, but this is what should be done, this capital city is complicated, some people are really too courageous in doing things, they should be taught a lesson, so as not to be bullied for you .”
Chu Heng curled his lips when he received the peace appeal message: "Master Qi is right. After all, there are thieves at the feet of the emperor, and in the official mansion. If they sneak into the palace, it is not a simple matter. Do things for the emperor. Naturally, it needs to be more detailed."
After hearing this, Shangshu Qi had some thoughts in his heart, looked at Chu Heng, and said with a smile: "Master Chu is worthy of the emperor's favor, so he cares about the emperor all the time."
"As a courtier, shouldn't that be the case?" Chu Heng said casually as if he didn't see his intention to try.
Being a pure minister has always been Chu Heng's goal.
Shangshu Qi got what he wanted to know, and when he arrived at the gate of the palace, he watched Chu Heng get into the carriage and leave. He stood there for a while before getting into the carriage with his hands behind his back.
When he returned to the yamen, he entered the room where King Qi was working, and waved his hand to let others out. He walked over and sat down beside him, and poured a cup of tea on his own initiative.
King Qi was sorting out some files. When he saw Qi Shangshu, he greeted him aloud, but didn't take the initiative to say anything. Now that he can stay in the capital and enter the household department, it is a good opportunity. Even if he doesn't want to compete for that position, he also knows A great opportunity to learn.
On weekdays, I work in the Yamen and never leave early.
"My lord, the Gao family has no choice but to give up." Qi Shangshu said this out loud after drinking tea.
Prince Qi's hand paused for a moment. In fact, he already knew that the Gao family, an imperial merchant, was promoted by his uncle's family, and even the Gao family was also related to the Zhang family.
This is not surprising, the Gao family has so much money, if they want to protect it, they can only have a backer.
He felt that it was not a good thing to help the Gao family too blatantly. It would annoy his father, but every time his uncle and concubine showed him the importance of gold and silver.
Now that Qi Shangshu suddenly expressed his abandonment of the Gao family, he felt very surprised. This is not something Qi Shangshu would do at all, such a big piece of meat.
