Determined that Qin Jiyan won't choose a concubine at the Qixi banquet, Gu Qiancheng's heart settled down. She has known Qin Jiyan for a long time. Of course, she knows Qin Jiyan's unique character. He said that if he would not choose a concubine at the Qixi banquet, he would not do it, even if the old emperor put pressure on him.
In addition to the selection of concubines, Gu Qiancheng is also concerned about Qin Jiyan's recent work, "Your Highness, is it not smooth for the Treasury to lose money?" Looking at his highness Qin's silence, we can see that things are very difficult.
There is no news about it outside. Except for Qin Jiyan's confidants, others don't know anything about it. Gu Qiancheng can't even inquire about it.
"It's not going well. The clue is broken." Thinking of the boxes of banknotes, Qin Jiyan couldn't help frowning.
Fake banknotes are the key to the case. If they can't tell the true from the false, how can they follow suit?
Gu Qiancheng nodded, did not ask specific details, only said: "so much silver, as long as it is still in the capital, it will be found."
"Silver is easy to find, but it's hard to find the person behind the scenes. The counterfeit banknotes made by the other party are not real enough. If you don't find people out, it will happen again. " The national treasury of the Qin Dynasty is very rich, but it can't stand such a toss.
"Your Highness, if you don't mind, can you show me those banknotes?" Although there is no high-tech inspection equipment, it is very difficult to distinguish the true from the false with the naked eye, Gu Qiancheng still hopes to do his part.
"Are you free now? Isn't it going to Fengjia and Yanjia? And the Wu family. You haven't seen them yet. " Of course, Qin Jiyan wants Gu Qiancheng to help. She doesn't need to contact dead people in this case, and she can make a name for herself. She just thought that she had just returned to Beijing and had a lot of social activities. She couldn't bear that she was too busy, so she wanted to let Gu Qiancheng solve the case together when things got better.
"I answered Feng's invitation, but I declined. It's a meal to go to Fengjia. It's not too busy. As for meeting the Wu family, it's not urgent. The Wu family is just outside the city and can see them all the time. " Gu Qiancheng is not ready to meet Wu's family now, so he wants to put it off.
Qin Jiyan knew Gu Qiancheng had a plan in mind, so he immediately said, "tomorrow, I'll send someone to pick you up."
"Well, I'll be ready." Gu Qiancheng responded with a cheerful face.
Instead of staying at home every day and playing tricks with the old man, she would rather face the dead or the dead.
"By the way..." Gu Qiancheng suddenly sat up and said, "help me with one thing."
Seeing Gu Qiancheng's serious appearance, Qin Jiyan could not help leaning forward and said seriously: "what's the matter?"
"Bring me a message to Princess Gu, saying that the old man will send me to your backyard." Gu Qiancheng believed that when she heard this, she understood the meaning of the old master.
"Is Gu going to give them up?" Qin Jiyan curled his lips and sneered, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
It is their royal business that their brothers and nephews contend with each other. When will it be the royal family's turn to look after the fat and the thin?
I'm really brave to take care of my family.
"Yes, people who care for their families are always realistic. What's the trouble when they're useless?" Gu Qiancheng knows what Qin Jiyan is angry about, but what does it have to do with her? The people she cares about are not in the capital. She doesn't care how Qin Jiyan tosses them.
"If you walk too much at night, you will always meet ghosts. I will let people clearly convey the meaning of Mr. Gu to Princess Gu and the fifth prince. " Royal people are not so easy to bully. Although the fifth Prince and Gu Guifei have lost their power, it is not too difficult to kill a Gu family.
"Then you can help the fifth prince." To deal with such trifles as Gu's family, it's better to let the fifth Prince and Gu's concubine do it. They don't have to dirty their hands.
Since we have to take part in the case of the loss of Treasury, there is no need to avoid suspicion. With the trivial things of Gu's family finished, Gu Qiancheng asked about the details of the case of the loss of Bank of the state treasury, and where is the progress now?
Qin Jiyan didn't hide Gu Qiancheng either. He had planned to let Gu Qiancheng take part in this matter, but now he just started earlier.
Qin Jiyan told Gu Qiancheng all about the recent progress and his doubts, without any concealment. "Although nearly a million taels of gold have been recovered, it is only a drop in the bucket compared with the silver that was taken from the Treasury."
Hearing the huge amount of money lost from the state treasury, Gu Qiancheng paused for a moment and then said, "how can the State Treasury have so much money?" I heard that the National Treasury was so poor that I couldn't even raise money to fight against the Northern Qi Dynasty. How could the National Treasury have so much money?
“……” Qin Jiyan did not speak, but looked at Gu Qiancheng in silence.
"Ah? Can't say? " Gu Qiancheng immediately understood, and he no longer asked.
Qin Jiyan shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "it's not impossible to say." I don't know how to say it. After all, it's not a glorious thing.
"I'm just curious. You don't have to say it." Gu Qiancheng swears that she really has no other mind.
Qin Jiyan fondly rubbed the top of her hair. "It's not a big deal. It's just that I don't have face. The Treasury did not have much money before. It was later that it copied the property of King Ning and King Zhao, as well as the family property of their subordinate officials, that the Treasury became rich. "In other words, the old emperor made his son's fortune. The rich man is not the old emperor, but the son of the old emperor.
If it were not for the selfless dedication of King Ning and King Zhao, as well as the officials attached to them, the National Treasury is also very poor now, and it is difficult to say whether it can support the northwest war.
"King Ning and King Zhao are really brave." Gu Qiancheng shook his head and quietly ordered wax for these two people.
The whole is richer than the emperor. The emperor has to be happy to have a ghost.
"There's nothing I dare not to do. Daqin is rich, but it's famous. All those rich businessmen in the south of the Yangtze River are as rich as their rivals." Qin Jiyan couldn't help frowning when he thought of the scene in the south of the Yangtze River.
Jiangnan is the cancer of the Qin Dynasty.
Gu Qiancheng sighed, "but even if it is like this, it's strange that the Treasury has no money. Does the emperor care?"
"How? Who cares? Everyone is not clean, the emperor has a sign of hand, immediately there is a minister to persuade. If we want to strengthen our actions, we will be able to stir up the whole body by pulling one hair, which will lead to turmoil in the court. Who can bear the responsibility? " Qin Jiyan shook his head when he thought of the difficulties of the imperial court a few years ago.
In his later years, the emperor, though not fatuous, did nothing and indulged his courtiers.
The emperor clearly knew that there was a terrible atmosphere in the court. The prince colluded with the officials, bought and sold the official positions, and dug up the court's money. But for the sake of superficial peace, he pretended that he didn't know anything, and let the king of Zhou, the king of Zhao, and the king of Ning fight openly and secretly
