Chapter 1701: The battle for the first male god in the Qing Dynasty
Burning out a golden Bodhisattva? What’s going on?
Prince Zhi was very curious, so he took his people to have a look.
Good guy, after burning the warehouse empty, the ground suddenly collapsed, revealing a big hole underneath. In the hole were neatly stacked official silver, as well as various gold and silver Bodhisattvas. Now they were burned to ashes, just like in the temple.
Solemn and quiet.
The prince of Zhijun brought people to carry boxes of silver, which amounted to more than 100,000 taels. Adding these gold and silver utensils, it was incredible. This number was astonishing.
He didn't know where the money came from, but he knew who Zhuangzi belonged to once he asked. It belonged to Ilsai, a member of the household department.
This guy belongs to the prince.
Good fellow, look at my iron shoes, I can't find anywhere, it takes no effort at all to get here!
If anyone wants to kill the Crown Prince the most right now, it must be Prince Zhi.
Everyone is telling Prince Zhi that Kangxi's durability against the prince is declining. As long as it falls to a certain level, the crown prince will definitely be abandoned again. Who else will the new crown prince give up to Prince Zhi?
It can be said that many people can find out about the conflict between Kangxi and the prince at this time, but they don't dare to say it.
With this discovery, Prince Zhi was so happy that he didn't even keep a tael of silver in his pocket. He wished he could add hundreds of thousands more taels to make his hat more substantial.
Prince Zhi directly brought the matter to the forefront.
You must know that in a sense, Kangxi was an emperor who encouraged corruption. His political thoughts were beyond the comprehension of many people.
Some people say that he is an emperor throughout the ages and extremely smart, while others say that he is completely confused and does all kinds of evil.
But you have to set a limit on corruption. You are just an official, but you embezzled hundreds of thousands of taels. Are you fair?
The Prince of Zhijun presented another gift to Kangxi, saying that this man was not only corrupt, but also had some interesting account books.
The account book was not in the warehouse, so it was not burned. They discovered it by accident and brought it to the emperor to see.
Kangxi took it and turned it over casually. He pondered for a moment and said he understood.
Prince Zhi was very unconvinced.
Why did the prince embezzle nearly one million taels and the emperor didn't say anything about him? This is too partial.
Prince Zhi said angrily: "This world belongs to Huang Ama. I hate these officials. I don't know what they are thinking. They stole Huang Ama's money to the prince. Could it be that in their hearts, the status of the prince does not matter."
Is it already this heavy?”
This sentence left a deep thorn in Kangxi's heart.
Although Emperor Kangxi did not directly trouble the prince in person, as soon as Prince Zhi left, Kangxi called the prince over and showed the account book to the prince.
The prince flipped through a few pages carelessly, and after thinking about it, Irsay, a member of the household department, seemed to have received a lot of money through someone, but it didn't seem to be that much. It was estimated that there were still some people left behind.
This was all normal, so he didn't go into detail and accepted the matter by default.
This is something Wu Sidao didn't expect.
He thought that the amount was so huge and the prince was so smart that maybe he could see something was obviously wrong with the account after just a quick glance. In the later period, Irsai, a member of the Account Department, transferred a large sum of money to the eighth prince.
In other words, even if he has not found a new master, at least he has become a stranger.
As soon as the prince turned around, Wu Sidao's plan to trick the eighth master changed and turned directly into tricking the prince.
