Chapter 1174 You go and accompany Wang Zhi

"What are you doing? What are you doing? Are you blind? Don't know who our family is?" Liu Jin struggled angrily.
If it were ordinary soldiers, they would probably be really timid in front of Liu Jin. After all, Liu Jin is famous for being a bad person. However, the one who sent to capture Liu Jin this time was the soldiers of Fenyong Camp, the leader of the 12th Regiment Battalion, and Zhang Yong's direct lineman, so naturally they are not afraid of Liu Jin.
You know, although Liu Jin is powerful all over the world, he really has no choice but to deal with Zhang Yong. At the beginning, Liu Jin wanted to send Zhang Yong to Nanjing. As a result, when Zhang Yong learned about it, he did not buy it and beat Liu Jin directly. But Zhang Yong was fine because Zhengde helped the two of them make peace.
From then on, Zhang Yong became a rare eunuch in the inner court who could confront Liu Jin in front, and Gu Dayong and others were far from that. In addition, Zhang Yong himself had control of the 12th Regiment Battalion and Shenji Battalion, and held heavy troops, so Liu Jin was helpless against him. It was precisely because of this that when Yang Yiqing plotted against Liu Jin, he would bring Zhang Yong together. Because Zhang Yong was the eunuch who dared to confront Liu Jin head-on. If it were Gu Dayong and Ma Yongcheng and others, they probably wouldn't dare to confront Liu Jingang head-on.
Because the boss dared to beat Liu Jin, the people in the 12th Regiment Battalion were also quite arrogant and were not afraid of Liu Jin. If the soldiers from other battalions were afraid of Liu Jin, they would probably be scared to death when they heard the word Liu Jin.
Liu Jin also wanted to resist and planned to ask his subordinates to save him. As a result, the lieutenant of the Fongying Camp instantly calmed Liu Jin:
"Your Majesty is waiting in your house!"
Liu Jin immediately knew that Zhengde was going to ask him for questions. However, thinking that the counterfeit jade seals and belts were smashed by him, he should have no weaknesses. As for the money in the mansion, Liu Jin touched the account book that had just been prepared in his arms and sighed.
After Liu Jin returned to his mansion, he saw Zhengde. Before he could kneel down, he heard Zhengde shout:
"Old Liu, I am very fond of you, why do you have a strange intention?"
Liu Jin was stunned, but he quickly reacted and knelt down to defend himself:
"Your Majesty is very fond of the old slave, but how can you have any disagreement towards your master?"
"Haha, there is no strange intention? Why did you bring weapons to see me without strange intention? Do you want to assassinate me?"
Liu Jin was suddenly confused:
"Your Majesty, you give me everything I have. Without Your Majesty, I am nothing, so how could I want to assassinate Your Majesty? Is my loyalty to Your Majesty? It is understandable to you!"
Liu Jin said this with sincerity. If Zhengde did not give him the right to be red and he would have pushed most of his government affairs to him, Liu Jin would not have been so powerful.
But Zhengde doesn't believe what he said now. Because Zhengde saw the fan with his own eyes hidden. So Zhengde threw the fan in front of Liu Jin and said:
"What you call loyalty is to meet me with a fan with a dagger hidden? Do you want to stab me?" Zhengde roared angrily.
Seeing the fan, Liu Jin's face suddenly changed - he had to do everything, but Liu Jin forgot about this fan...
Previously, Ma Lin reminded Liu Jin to destroy the contraband, but Liu Jin did as he did. However, the fan was too exquisitely crafted and Liu Jin liked it very much, so he did not destroy it. Moreover, if no one found a dagger hidden in the fan, it was indeed not a contraband.
Generally speaking, if an ordinary soldier comes to Liu Jin's mansion to search the house, even if he sees this fan, he will not feel that there is any problem. Old Liu likes to hide daggers in the fan. Can you control your soldier? It's not an illegal thing...
But this time, Zhengde led a team to search the house. Moreover, Zhengde has a good memory. I remember that Liu Jin often carried this fan with him in the summer. Then, there happened to be a dagger hidden in the fan... So Liu Jin was in trouble...
"Your Majesty... This fan can hide a dagger, but I never hide a dagger in the fan every time I face the Saint..." At this time, Liu Jin could only insist that he had never brought the Dagger Face Lord. Otherwise, just hiding the Dagger Face Lord alone would be enough for him to die several times...
"I didn't bring a dagger to see me? Who can prove it?" Zhengde asked angrily.
How can Liu Jin prove it? Time cannot go back and there is no way to investigate. Therefore, Liu Jin cannot defend himself at all now...
Therefore, Liu Jin could only kowtow hard at this time:
"Your Majesty, I really have never brought a dagger to see you! If there is a false statement, I am willing to be cut into pieces by thousands of knives!"
"I can get you cut into pieces now!" Zhengde said angrily.
Seeing that Liu Jin was about to be killed by the angry Zhengde, Liu Zhong entered the back hall inappropriately and shouted excitedly as he walked:
"Your Majesty, I'm so happy! The old minister just made a rough calculation and found that Liu Jin's mansion had 2.5 million taels of gold and silver, and the silver was more than 50 million taels! If it was stored in the treasury, it would be worth several years of tax revenue! Your Majesty, please give orders to move all these ill-gotten wealth to the treasury!"
Liu Zhong just found Liu Jin's housekeeper to check the accounts. As soon as he got the approximate number, he came excitedly to report the good news. However, he was very wrong with the time...
Liu Jinzheng was desperately enduring Zhengde's anger. When he heard Liu Zhong say this, he immediately became energetic. Because, he remembered the account book in his arms. So Liu Jin shouted:
"You can't put those gold and silver into the treasury!"
Then, Zhengde, Liu Zhong and others looked at Liu Jin with surprise - You are going to die, but you still can't bear to leave the money?
"What? You, Eunuch Liu, can't bear to bear the money?" Zhengde sneered.
Liu Jin reacted and explained:
"Your Majesty, this money is not owned by the old slave, but belongs to the inner treasury of the palace!"
"What? The inner warehouse?" Zhengde was stunned when he heard Liu Jin say this...
Liu Jin took the opportunity to take out the account book, held up his hands and said:
"Your Majesty, this is the account book made by the old slave. Please check it out. All the money is temporarily placed here by the old slave, and it does not belong to the old slave. Otherwise, they should be placed in the east house. The east house is the old slave's mansion, and the west house is the old slave temporarily used as a warehouse. In fact, it is the money stored in the warehouse in the helper!"
Liu Zhong said angrily:
"What is the difference between money entering the national treasury and internal treasury? Putting it into the national treasury is just used for the people. It is a great thing that benefits the country and the people! Even if you send it to the internal treasury, don't you still have to transfer it to the national treasury? Why do you do this too much?"
Liu Jin had calmed down at this time, and he shook his head and said:
"Sir Liu's words are wrong! After this money is sent to the inner treasury, most of the money will be allocated to the treasury. However, it is very particular to whoever is allocated..."
"How do you pay attention to the law?" Liu Zhong asked angrily.
"If the treasury directly receives this money, then all this has nothing to do with Your Majesty! Moreover, in the future, Your Majesty will have to ask the Ministry of Revenue for money in a low voice. You poor literati may find excuses to refuse, and will advise Your Majesty not to be extravagant or something..."
As Liu Jin said, Zhengde also had a stir in his heart. Because what Liu Jin said was the facts...
"But if you enter the inner treasury first, then the cabinet will ask Your Majesty to allocate the money. And Your Majesty will make the emperor's emperor's grace... Moreover, if it is used for disaster relief, the victims will also know that this is the disaster relief fund allocated by Your Majesty's inner treasury. Then, the people will also be grateful to Your Majesty's grace..."
"Isn't this a waste of time? In the end, it's time to send it to the people by the cabinet and officials?" Liu Zhong said angrily.
Liu Jin shook his head straight:
"Different! Different! The cabinet allocates funds, and the people are grateful for the kindness of the cabinet master! And the Majesty uses the treasury to allocate funds, and the people are grateful for the kindness of the Majesty! What do the cabinet masters want to be famous? Do they rebel? The kindness of the world should be given by Your Majesty, not the cabinet and the officials!" Liu Jin said with a clear conscience.
Liu Zhong was immediately confused, but Zhengde's eyes lit up after hearing this...
Because he succeeded to the throne at a young age, Zhengde has not made any achievements in fame until now. Therefore, the little emperor was very eager for fame.
And as Liu Jin said, if there is a disaster somewhere and he allocates funds from the inner treasury to provide disaster relief, then what the people are grateful for is their kindness... This reputation is so frustrating...
So, Zhengde finally agreed to Liu Jin's request to fill all the gold and silver in the West House into the inner warehouse. Then, Zhengde, who had taken the full advantage, was embarrassed to kill Liu Jin.
Before leaving, Zhengde thought for a while and said:
"Old Liu, I can't forgive you easily, even if you have a dagger, I can't forgive you easily. Otherwise, what is the national law? But in the light of the fact that you have raised so much gold and silver for the inner treasury... This way, you go to Nanjing to accompany Wang Zhi..."
