The female officer Liu Rou nodded after hearing this, and then walked outside.

As soon as she went out, she saw two guards beating Zheng Xiu again.

"Stop, you are disturbing the Empress Qingxiu, and you can't kill anyone with such a beating."

As soon as Liu Rou said these words, the two guards immediately stopped and let Zheng Xiu between them out.

At this time, although Zheng Xiu's clothes were beaten to pieces, his body strengthened by Wenqi was still strong.

Then he also stood up, raised his head high, and looked at people through his nostrils.

When Liu Rou saw this scene, she was a little unhappy at first, but she was steady by nature and still asked.

"Tell me, what are you doing by breaking into the forbidden palace at this time? The empress said that if you don't answer well, you will be thrown into the prison and locked up until you die."

If Zheng Xiu was killed directly, Zheng Xiu would not be afraid.

But locking him up until death seems a bit too cruel.

After thinking about it for a while, he finally said: "I have something important to report to the Empress. Someone is corrupt."

Liu Rou nodded when she heard this, indicating that she knew.

This court is already full of moths, so it's not surprising that some people are corrupt.

"Tell me how much has been embezzled. If the amount is too small, you should go to the prison and report it."

"Thirteen million taels."

"Well, one thousand three hundred taels, not much, drag it away."

"You heard wrong, I said thirteen million taels!"

"How much did you say? Thirteen million taels!"

Liu Rou's eyes were wide open, and she didn't even know how to show her surprise.

After all, this is thirteen million taels of money.

Thinking of this, she immediately turned around and prepared to report to the empress, because the money was too big and she couldn't make the decision.

So Liu Rou hurriedly walked into the inner hall, and then reported softly to the empress.

"Are you sure it's thirteen million taels, not one thousand three hundred taels?"

"I asked, and it is indeed thirteen million taels."

When the empress heard this answer, she immediately stopped practicing and began to arrange her clothes.

Because she knows the importance of thirteen million taels of silver.

Thirteen million taels, if used to refine elixirs, can save a lot of time in hard work.

If it is distributed to the people, it can feed a state for a long time.

Thinking of this, the empress opened her mouth and gave instructions.

"If he is told to come in, I would like to see where this 'thirteen million taels' comes from."

"I will do it now."

Liu Rou took the empress's order and immediately came outside.

At this moment, Zheng Xiu had already cleaned up the dust on his body, but his beaten and tattered clothes could not be restored.

"The Empress calls you. As for you two, go and receive the punishment yourself."

After Liu Rou said these words, she didn't care about the two guards and walked directly inside with Zheng Xiu.

The two guards looked at each other, obviously a little surprised. They were both prepared to be severely punished, but they were let go so lightly?

"I haven't asked this female officer her name yet."

"Don't ask if you shouldn't. You'd better think more about what to say when you meet His Highness."

When Zheng Xiu encountered a cold nail, she stopped using her hot face to touch other people's cold buttocks.

When he reached the door of the inner hall, he bowed and saluted.

"Your Majesty Zheng Xiu, I have something to report."

"Xuan."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Zheng Xiu then straightened up, and someone next to him opened the palace door.

Liu Rou took Zheng Xiu forward.

At this time, the empress had arranged her clothes and was sitting behind a screen.

Just relying on the reflection projected through the light is enough to make some people's imagination.

"I have something to report, Zheng Xiu. I went to the Ministry of Industry on duty today to compile the account books for the past three months and found a lot of problems."

"There are only thirteen million taels that are recorded, can be calculated, and can be calculated."

"If we add those that are not recorded and those that cannot be calculated, there may be more."

"Ding, go straight to the Holy Master, report the corruption case of the Ministry of Industry, and issue an immediate reward: Literary Dao will be promoted by one rank, Literary Dao's secret skills will be unforgettable, and Literary Dao's secret skills will be painted on the ground as a prison."

"Warm reminder: At the end of the case, the more officials involved and the greater the official positions involved, the more rewards you will receive, and there may even be a mysterious gift at the end."

Zheng Xiu lowered his head very low, but he knew that the expression on the emperor's face must be wonderful.

After all, that's thirteen million taels.

But this has nothing to do with me.

At this moment, Zheng Xiu was feeling the quality and quantity of Wen Dao's fifth-grade literary energy, which was not a bit better than that of sixth-grade Wenqi.

There is also the ability of photographic memory. As long as you have seen something, you will never forget it, not just from this moment on.

He can recall clearly even what he saw in his previous life and what Zheng Xiu saw in this life.

And the data he recorded before can appear in his eyes as soon as he thinks about it.

As for drawing the ground as a prison, it is even more terrifying, as long as the level of literature and education on the opposite side does not exceed yours.

He just forcibly connected the other party's literary spirit with his own, and then restrained the other party's spiritual thoughts in the world composed of literary spirit.

At this time, the opponent's body could not move, but Zheng Xiu himself could move without any hindrance.

It can only be said that no matter how many people there are on the other side, as long as their level does not exceed Zheng Xiu.

Then until Zheng Xiu's literary energy is exhausted, Zheng Xiu will be invincible.

Just when Zheng Xiu was realizing his skills, he heard a "click" from behind the screen.

If Zheng Xiu guessed correctly, it should be the sound of the writing brush being broken in half.

Following the sound of several footsteps, the hem of the empress's clothes appeared right in front of Zheng Xiu's eyes.

"Zheng Aiqing, I remember you. You were released last night."

"I just reported to the Ministry of Industry today. Is everything you said true?"

Although the empress tried her best to keep her tone calm, Zheng Xiu could still hear the suppressed anger in it.

"Back to Your Highness, I have already sorted out the data and handed it over to a guard. I believe it will be sent over from time to time."

The empress moved lightly, and then said, "It's already this time, I'm afraid he won't be able to come."

"Back to Your Highness, I have a second piece of data in my mind."

"Then you can write down all the corruption-related data you have compiled here on my Dragon Bookcase."

"I want to see it."

After the empress finished speaking, Zheng Xiu didn't waste a moment, and very rudely sat down on the dragon chair that only emperors could sit on.

The female officer Liu Rou next to her was about to say something to stop her, but she was stopped by the empress.

"Let him sit. If he can really help me find the thirteen million taels, I can give him a dragon chair."

The empress did not suppress her voice, so Zheng Xiu could hear it clearly.

Look at the pattern of other empresses, and then look at the pattern of female officials. Either one is an empress and the other is a female official.

As soon as Liu Rou saw his expression, she knew that he was thinking about those rude things.

But since the empress was here, it was difficult for her to have an attack, so she had to endure it first.

"Master Zheng, please hurry up and start writing."

"Why is this inkstone made dry?"
