The investigation of this year's accounts has been completed. The cashier found a big problem and felt that something was wrong, so he came to report it to Liu Ruyan.
"What are you talking about, deficit?" Liu Ruyan sat lazily on the chair. Hearing this, he suddenly opened his tired eyes, grabbed the chair with both hands and almost stood up.
Nearby zhen'er quickly gave Liu Ruyan a wink and asked Liu Ruyan not to worry.
Liu Ruyan shrunk his head, tightened his lips and asked, "haven't you been managing the accounts yourself? How can such a thing happen?"
"Report back to your mother. The Hougong spent a lot in the past. Now the Hougong is making great efforts to rectify. The accounts are inevitably messy. I think there is something wrong in the middle, but the deficit in the accounts is too large. I'm worried that some of them are secretly interfering and dare not be expert. So I came to report to your mother and ask her to make a decision." Mr. accounting room is serious, and Liu Ruyan knows that it's not simple.
So he waved his hand and Liu Ruyan said, "check, it's not easy to rectify the harem. Now it's the key time for your majesty to resettle refugees. If the silver can't keep up, it's easy to have big problems. You must check it immediately. You have full authority to investigate the matter. You must do it as soon as possible."
"Yes, I understand."
The cashier looked up at Liu Ruyan when he heard the speech. His eyes twinkled slightly. It seemed that he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, left with Liu Ruyan.
Zhen'er took a look and sent someone to deliver it. She asked Liu Ruyan with some worry: "madam, although the cashier is the person in charge of the cashier, isn't she worried?"
"Worried?" Liu Ruyan was stunned and turned to ask, "what are you worried about?"
"He's the cashier. There are so many silver coins in and out of his hands every day. The maid thinks that no matter how honest a person is, he will inevitably have two hearts in the face of money. What if the account is his own hands and feet?"
Jane's eyes were clear and her words were reasonable. She saw many conspiracies around Liu Ruyan, which made her very vigilant, not to mention a stranger she had never seen.
Seeing Liu Ruyan's dark twinkle, zhen'er continued: "madam, you think that the cashier has managed the cashier for many years and has never made any mistakes. She has won the praise of her majesty. What happened to her as soon as she rectifies the back palace? Won't she think it's too coincidental at this time?"
Looking at the appearance of the cashier just now, Jane felt suspicious. Her eyes revolved around the cashier all the way. How do you think the cashier is suspicious.
Liu Ruyan thought carefully with his chin in his hands for a long time and murmured, "but if we were to check it, we wouldn't check it. If we transferred people from outside the palace, it might not be a credible person. His majesty has used it for many years, and His Majesty's eyes are always credible. If he wants to do something, he's afraid he'd have moved long ago. Why wait until now, I don't have any deep hatred with him."
Smell speech zhen'er also hesitated. She just felt that what Liu Ruyan said seemed to have some truth. She and Liu Ruyan didn't understand the accounts. If you want to find out the accounts as soon as possible, you can only come from the cashier. If the deficit is not clear, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble at that time.
Liu Ruyan is right. Now is the key time for lianchengming to resettle the refugees. These refugees have received a lot of benefits. If the money of the imperial court is insufficient and the benefits are reduced sharply, the refugees will be more dissatisfied, but it is easier to break out violence and unrest than when they are not resettled.
So she sighed. Zhen'er shook her head slightly and said, "I don't know. I just think the empress should be more vigilant. After all, people in the harem are staring at the empress. The empress has made great efforts to rectify the harem, which makes many people dissatisfied with the empress. It's inevitable to cause trouble. The empress should be more careful."
The Queen's seat is not coveted by two people alone. When Liu Ruyan took charge of the Phoenix seal, many people were dissatisfied. Although he later killed the chicken as an example and suppressed it, the more you suppress the people's heart, the more uneasy it will be. Sooner or later, there will be an accident, and often only one fuse is needed.
Originally, Liu Ruyan just felt that zhen'er was too nervous, but he didn't want to be seriously said by zhen'er. Soon after, the cashier returned again with the investigation results and pointed at Liu Ruyan. He said frankly that the deficit in the account came from Yu'an hall.
Liu Ruyan asked for the account for a long time, but she didn't understand it. She only knew that she had never spent so much silver in Yu'an hall, so she shook her head: "it's impossible. There has never been so much silver in Yu'an hall. Are you wrong?"
The cashier knelt down with his fist when he heard the speech, kowtowed Liu Ruyan, looked up and explained: "the empress made atonement. Weichen has managed the cashier for many years. Everything is done according to the rules. Weichen has checked it. This account is undoubtedly from Yu'an hall."
"Well..." Liu Ruyan was speechless at once. He couldn't help but be at a loss. He listened to the cashier and said, "if your mother has any questions about this, it's better to find out the palace man who took the account at that time. You'll know when you ask. If you have two hearts and make trouble from it, you don't know."
Liu Ruyan patted his forehead, looked at the name on the account book, and then turned back to zhen'er and said, "go and find someone quickly. The palace wants to see who is so bold and dares to start in Yu'an hall."
"Yes." Jane took the account, glanced at the cashier and turned out with a suspicious look.
When she came back soon, Jane's face was very ugly. She shook her head with Liu Ruyan and said, "madam, the little eunuch is gone."
"What, it's gone!" Liu Ruyan was shocked: "how could it be gone? People in and out of the palace have records. How could a living man disappear out of thin air!"
"Yes..." zhen'er bit her lower lip, and her uneasy premonition became stronger and stronger: "the eunuch who slept with her said that he went home to visit his relatives a few days ago and took a few days off, but he never came back. There was no news."
"In other words, people can't find it?" Liu Ruyan widened his eyes, looked at zhen'er's hands, and suddenly came down in a cold sweat: "that is to say, someone deliberately did it..."
Now Liu Ruyan has just returned to taste. The things in this account came to Yu'an hall from the beginning. Someone has already done a good job and waited for Liu Ruyan to jump in.
He turned and patted the chair. Liu Ruyan bit his lower lip and was very angry.
As soon as the matter came out, there were different opinions, but most of them were words unfavorable to Liu Ruyan. There were rumors everywhere, which was no less than the vast situation of being refused marriage on the 15th day of the year.
The harem, who was originally very dissatisfied with Liu Ruyan, suddenly heard a voice of crusading against Liu Ruyan. Many concubines were more and more dissatisfied with Liu Ruyan, and the words were very ugly.
