"Daqin's Treasury is empty!"
Qin Jiyan didn't hear it wrong. Even if he repeated it ten thousand times, it was still this sentence.
Daqin's Treasury is empty, and all the deposit money in it is gone.
No matter how calm Qin Jiyan was, he couldn't help showing his emotion. After taking a deep breath, he pressed the rolling emotion in his heart and squeezed out two words from his teeth: "details?"
It is not easy to empty the National Treasury under the emperor's eyes.
Dark Wei knew that this matter was very serious, did not dare to delay, quickly said: "the fifth prince in order to make up the bank's deficit, has been embezzling the Treasury's silver, until not long ago the emperor wanted to use silver, ordered people to open the Treasury to take the Treasury, only to know that the Treasury's silver is gone."
"The fifth prince? Can he empty the national treasury? " It's not that Qin Jiyan despises the fifth prince. In fact, the fifth Prince is a lump of mud. He built up the framework of the Daqin bank at the beginning, and the fifth prince could not run the bank according to his plan, which shows his strength.
"The Secretary of the Ministry of accounts intervened. He united with the people of the bank to cheat the upper and lower levels and withdraw money from the Treasury in the name of the fifth prince." The dark guard presents a fold from the leader of the royal guards. "Before, in order to build the Daqin bank, the emperor made it easy for the fifth prince to transfer less than 100000 liang of silver without notice."
The leader of the royal guards didn't write the details of the event in the fold, which said that the record of the fifth Prince's transfer of money from the Treasury was more than 50000 Liang each time,
he wrote a whole book with hundreds of pages.
"Sure enough, I have the ability." Instead of looking at each stroke carefully, Qin Jiyan looked at a total of 6 million taels of gold and 300 million taels of silver.
This is all the deposit money of the state treasury in the past few years. Now it's gone.
"He has the ability to take out so much silver." Without money in the national treasury, the whole Qin Dynasty could not operate.
The Ministry of work, the Ministry of war, the Ministry of officials, and the army in the government and in the border areas, which does not need money?
"Your Highness, all the silver and gold in the national treasury are drawn out through the bank notes issued by Daqin bank. There are dozens of boxes of banknotes in Daqin Silver Village. " Dark Wei after finding out the cause and effect of things, also want to scold the fifth Prince stupid.
There is a run on the bank. The fifth prince wants to cover the lid himself, but if he can't cover it, he should burst out and let those who have the ability to clean up the aftermath. Now it's like this, and the whole Qin Dynasty is in bad luck.
Qin Jiyan closed his eyes and said, "do you want to know the details of this palace?"
It's happened. It's no use getting angry.
"Not long after Daqin bank was built, many people came in to deposit money, and the bank issued many large denominations of banknotes, even one million taels of banknotes. These huge silver bills were all privately issued by the fifth prince. The fifth Prince did not remember the exact number, but at least it was more than ten million Liang. "
"The tens of millions of taels of silver were deposited in Yinzhuang, but the fifth Prince didn't hand it over to the Treasury. He didn't even tell the Ministry of accounts that the court didn't know that the fifth prince had collected so much silver. The money was used by the fifth prince to bribe officials and train private soldiers. "
"It's all Xiaoyao who trains private soldiers and bribes officials. He arranges people to help the fifth prince. The fifth Prince doesn't know how much silver he spent. The fifth prince only knows that Xiaoyao has helped him train 100000 troops, and Xiaoyao has promised him that as soon as the emperor has an accident, Xiaoyao will lead his troops to attack the city and protect the fifth prince. "
"The fifth prince was dazzled by the throne. Xiaoyao said that the army needed weapons. He could get good swords and guns from the Northern Qi Dynasty, but the price would be higher. He needed a lot of money. Just at this time, some big families came to deposit their silver. After the fifth Prince issued a silver note, he secretly transported the silver to Xiaoyao, and let Xiaoyao buy weapons and train his troops. "
"Originally, everything went smoothly, but a month and a half ago, there was a sudden run on the bank. At the beginning, it was only a small amount of exchange, and the fifth prince could still get the silver, but the amount was getting larger and larger, and the fifth prince could not get the silver at all."
"The fifth prince was afraid that the emperor would know about it. When he found out about his private military training, he asked Xiaoyao for help. Xiaoyao gave him an idea and asked him to withdraw money from the Treasury."
"At the beginning, the fifth Prince still hesitated. After all, taking money from the National Treasury is a big thing, and it's easy to be found, but the carefree people guarantee that they can help the fifth Prince deal with it."
"At this time, the fifth Prince is already in a dilemma. If he doesn't believe in Xiaoyao, he has to believe it, unless he wants to let the emperor know that he has misdeeds and train his troops in private."
"The free and unfettered people are really powerful. They have dealt with the Secretary of the Ministry of household and the people guarding the state treasury, and moved the money out of the State Treasury bit by bit. With the money from the national treasury, the fifth Prince calmed down the storm, but he was not found by the emperor, and he believed in Xiaoyao more and more. "
"The fifth prince himself can't remember how many million taels of silver he printed. More and more people came back to cash them with huge amounts of silver, and every one of them was real. The fifth prince, who has already taken out a huge sum of silver, has no choice but to continue to take out silver to fill the hole. "
"The fifth prince said that the Xiaoyao people deceived the superior and deceived the inferior. He didn't know how much money they had carried from the national treasury. Whenever someone came to get the money with a silver note, he would let the Xiaoyao people go to the national treasury to get it."The dark guard is almost intact. The words of the royal guard are not mixed with personal feelings.
After listening to the guard, Qin Jiyan heaved a long breath and asked, "haven't you caught anyone who is carefree? Is it true that the whole family of the Secretary of the Ministry of household has disappeared? "
"Yes, only the fifth Prince and his cronies didn't run away. Until he was arrested, the fifth Prince still didn't know that the Treasury was empty." Dark Wei lowered his head and didn't know what to do.
Although the nine sons of the dragon are different, it's rare to be a fifth prince.
"Fool." Qin Jiyan couldn't help scolding.
For the sake of a throne, falling into such a low-level trap, what is not a fool?
To say that he is a descendant of the royal family has lost the face of the royal family of the Qin Dynasty!
Dark Wei bowed his head, only when he didn't hear it, he continued: "Your Highness, the emperor also chose to cover it, and didn't dare to let it out."
"The royal guards have been busy tracking down the whereabouts of the silver coins all this time. The emperor means that if you want to solve this matter quietly, you don't want the royal guards to search for several days without any news. Seeing that this season's military pay is about to be set aside, the emperor is afraid that the matter will be exposed and the imperial court will be in chaos. He secretly orders you to return to Beijing, asking you to recover the money lost in the Treasury and find out the mastermind behind the scenes. "
The words were retouched by the secret guards. The original words from the royal guards were: the emperor said that Huang TAISUN is the future crown prince, and it's time to contact with state affairs. He believes that Huang TAISUN will do it perfectly.
Yes, the emperor tried to save it when something happened. If he couldn't, he would blame Qin Jiyan for everything. When the court was in turmoil and the people were upset, it was all Qin Jiyan's fault
