Chapter 42: Like Father, Like Son

Luoyang, No. 7, Jinwu Lane, Yuan’s residence.

"Third brother? Why are you back angry!"

Seeing Yuan Shu angrily crossing the threshold, his face turned red and purple, and white smoke kept emitting from his nostrils... like an angry bull, Yuan Ji, as the eldest brother, knew that someone must have messed with his arrogant brother again.

In theory...

Although his younger brother has a bad temper and is narrow-minded.

But he always relied on the power of the Yuan family as the three ministers of the four generations and three generations to cause trouble for others. Often, someone else should be the one who is angry to death? Why is he so angry today?

"Hmph..." He snorted coldly, and Yuan Shu glared at Yuan Ji, "How many times have you told me, call me my second brother!"

"Oh..." Yuan Ji sighed helplessly. "I would be unhappy when I first heard it..."

"Bah!" Yuan Shu had nowhere to vent his anger in his chest. At this time, he used this excuse to clench his fists and thrust his anger at the wall. "Yuan Shao? He is a humble servant... and he can't be regarded as a seed of the Yuan family!"

Yuan Shu...is simply the nemesis that Yuan Shao hits.

Relying on his mother being a great Han princess... Yuan Shu never takes others seriously, let alone Yuan Shao, who was born to a lowly maid!

"Okay, brother Shu... what's wrong with you today? You're so angry?" Yuan Ji had the style of a big brother. Seeing that Yuan Shu was so angry that he was about to fall, he supported him. "The last time you were so angry, it was when you were a child, and you were fighting with Cao Man!"

Uh... Yuan Shu was slightly stunned.

This is a past that he didn't want to look back on... When he was in the Taixue kindergarten, Yuan Shu mocked Cao Cao as the eunuch's grandson and threatened to take off Cao Cao's pants and see if there were any small turtle!

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao, a country bumpkin who was carrying Qiao County dialect, stretched out his hand and punched... Yuan Shu's tooth was knocked off. Then... the three brothers of the Yuan family beat Cao Cao together... Unexpectedly, Yuan Ji's combat power was not good, so Yuan Shao didn't want to help this nemesis brother, so Cao Cao got a chance and bit Yuan Shu's finger with his teeth... bloody.

"Hmph..." Thinking of this, Yuan Shu couldn't help but stretch out his hand to look at it. The scar is still there... It will still hurt when it rains cloudy and rainy... They are all the eunuchs who are killed by heaven!

It's great today... Like father, like son. Cao Cao used his sharp teeth to make Yuan Shu remember it deeply; this... Cao Shuo used absurd actions and golden coins... to hit Yuan Shu's heart hard. This kind of damage caused by money is similar to mental damage... is a hundred times more serious than physical critical damage.

Does it hurt? Yuan Shu covered his wound...it didn't hurt very much, it was just suffocating.

"Brother Shu? What's wrong with you?" Yuan Ji continued to ask... "Why Cao Cao is far away in Qiao County? Apart from him? Who else can make you so angry?"

"Oh..." Yuan Shu shook his hand heavily and shook his elder brother Yuan Ji away... "Yes... it's that terrifying Cao Cao... he... he..."

One sentence came to his mouth, and suddenly, Yuan Shu discovered that he had no shame to say it.

I was so embarrassed... I couldn't shout it out. The person who made me angry like this was Cao Cao's six-year-old son - Cao Shu... a child?

Is this going to let Yuan Shao know? Wouldn't it be... he laughed at him?

Oh... I'm so frustrated!

These days, the Zhongchang Shi Zhao Zhong is very busy.

He was busy collecting evidence about Cao Jie and Cao Song's wealth. Fortunately, he had eyes and ears in the palace and outside the palace... He even had eyes in the old house in Cao Song Qiao County.

Bamboo slips are displayed on the desks of Yong'an Palace. Zhao Zhong never misses a single piece. Each volume is read from beginning to end, and the corners of his mouth gradually opens, revealing a smile that is firm in his heart.

This is a detailed description of Cao Jie and Cao Song embezzling the treasury money and handling the matters from top to bottom...

How much did the palace servants manage, how much did the local officials manage, how much did the main treasury manage... There are also some related powerful people, and the amount of money they manage is on the book, totaling more than 50 million yuan.

The most important thing is the news from Qiao County’s eyes and ears… The money transported back to the national treasury from the ancestral home of Qiao County in Cao’s mansion was exactly the shortfall of this more than 50 million yuan…

Hahaha…

Zhao Zhong couldn't help laughing out loud. The books on both sides were in line with each other... This time, even though Cao Song and Cao Jie were capable, where did they go to make up for the deficit of the national treasury?

"All the documents submitted to the emperor? Have you written them?" Zhao Zhong's face was overjoyed and he hurriedly called out.

Naturally, a little yellow door came up with the document to be reviewed by Zhao Zhong...

This is a document that denounces Cao Jie and Cao Song in the name of a scholar-official, and the more than 50 million yuan of the national treasury is placed there. The evidence is conclusive... Cao Jie cannot tolerate any quibbling!

In addition, the current His Majesty has a temper... Anyone who is linked to money has always been very particular.

If he had let him know that in the current court, in addition to himself, there would be someone who dared to embezzle the money from the treasury privately... Hehe, the consequence would be to destroy the nine clans!

"It's well written." Zhao Zhong nodded immediately after reviewing the documents submitted to the emperor, and the joy on his cheek was about to emerge... "Go and submit it to His Majesty..."

"Here..." Xiaohuangmen lowered his head and agreed, turned his head and planned to go to find His Majesty.

"Wait." Zhao Zhong seemed to have thought of something again. "This document must be handed over to Your Majesty in person. Never let other eunuchs submit it on their behalf... It may not be guaranteed that it will fall into Cao Jie's hands!"

The little yellow door nodded...

Of course he knew that the eunuchs in the palace are divided into two factions, one is the upstarts led by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong and other "Ten Eunuchs", and the other is the old-fashioned strongman headed by Cao Jie...

The situation in the entire palace is very delicate... The eunuchs who are polite on the surface are not guaranteed... They are secretly stumbled and use knives!

If all officials want to submit documents from the emperor, they must pass one of these two eunuch factions.

Otherwise... even if the documents are in a hurry, they will definitely be thrown into the kitchen as firewood and burned out with fire.

"The little one knows what to do." Xiaohuangmen replied, then turned around... and took small steps and slowly left...

Huh... Zhao Zhong finally breathed.

Once this document exposing Cao Jie's crimes is presented to Your Majesty... In the future, there will be only one voice in the Han palace!

whee…

Zhao Zhong couldn't help laughing out loud. He suddenly remembered a sentence that his good partner Zhang Rang said, a very prescient sentence—

——Open your eyes and see, this world is the final word!

Very pretentious, but... Zhao Zhong likes it very much!

"Haha... After today, this world... is our ten eunuchs to let it go!" Zhao Zhong laughed again... After sweeping away the busy haze these days, the joy on his cheeks was about to emerge.

After half a cup of tea.

Step on the tread…

Outside Yong'an Palace, the sound of rapid footsteps rang one after another...

With a bang..., the gate of Yong'an Palace was pushed open, and Zhao Zhong was stunned... he was wondering in his heart? Who dared to act wildly on the territory of their ten eunuchs?

I looked closely… the person who pushed the door was not someone else, but the leader of the ten regular attendants, his intimate partner--Zhang Rang.

But... at this time, he didn't look like the head of the regular servant? He was disheveled and dirty, and looked discouraged.

At the same time, there were those breathless words.

"Oh no... something happened to the Cao family!"
