www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Young Master Fierce!

On December 28, the fifth year of Daxia, it snowed heavily in Chang'an.

The year has slipped through our fingers in such a hurry, and it’s time to take a break again.

Today was the first day of rest. Yun Xiyan slept comfortably and didn't get up until noon.

After washing up, You Xifeng happened to walk in.

"Have you had enough sleep? The old housekeeper from Prime Minister Yan's Mansion came here just now and asked you to go to Prime Minister Yan's Mansion to have a party in the evening...drink less!"

Yun Xiyan grinned, stretched out his hand to hook You Xifeng's chin, and kissed her on the lips.

You Xifeng was embarrassed, his face suddenly turned red, he looked around, and scolded in a low voice: "There are people around, but you don't pay attention to the occasion!"

"We are an old married couple. Didn't we learn this from that guy Fu Xiaoguan? Regardless of the occasion, he said that this is the natural nature of human nature, and this is the love between husband and wife!"

"...He is the Supreme Emperor. If you don't sound like Fu Xiaoguan, people who don't know will think you don't understand etiquette!"

"Hey, actually he prefers us to call him Fu Xiaoguan. Okay, let's ask the kitchen to make something lighter. After eating, I will go to the East and West markets to see how the prices are during this New Year."

"Well, come back early in the evening!"

Yun Xiyan smiled seductively, and raised You Xifeng's chin again. Looking at the watery eyes and the pretty lips, he leaned over and whispered: "Okay, I'm done with it. Wait for me!"

You Xifeng left shyly, "It's not serious to die!"

……

After lunch, Yun Xiyan got on the carriage and went out. He spent three hours walking around the east and west cities.

When he arrived at Yan Xiwen's mansion, it was already dark, the wind was stronger, and the snow was heavier.

Yan Mansion Study Room.

Two pots of stove are burning brightly.

Yun Xiyan, led by the concierge of the Yan Mansion, walked into the study wrapped in wind and snow, only to see five people already sitting in the study.

In addition to the three prime ministers, there is Ji Yungui, the head of Tianji Pavilion, and the other one is Li Cai, the president of the People's Bank of Daxia.

He shook the snow off his body at the door, closed the door, walked over and laughed: "Everyone, I'm a little late... Isn't this the New Year? Why is the atmosphere so dull?"

"Xi Yan, sit down!"

Yan Xiwen poured a cup of tea for Yun Xiyan, then looked at Yun Xiyan and suddenly asked: "Have you seen the accounts of the incoming and outgoing poverty alleviation funds of Yueshan and Liangdao this year?"

Yun Xiyan was startled, "I saw it, what happened?"

"Nothing unusual found?"

Yun Xiyan frowned, thought for a moment, and shook his head: "That's a special fund. I approve every application personally. No, what do you mean by that?"

Yan Xiwen looked at Ji Yungui, who said with a serious face: "Someone is checking the accounts of the poverty alleviation funds, starting from Yueshan Road. I thought it was the intention of the three prime ministers. But when I asked about it just now, I learned that they had not issued such an order."

"It's normal for the three prime ministers to want to check the accounts. In the past, when the Supreme Emperor was here, he often asked the Ministry of Commerce to do this work. I definitely have no objection to it... But since it's not you who are checking, who is it?"

Except for the three prime ministers, the cabinet has no power to do such a thing.

The cabinet only has the right to vote on the policies of the three provinces, but has no executive power.

"I suspect it's the emperor!"

It can only be the emperor!

Yun Xiyan was puzzled at this, but after thinking about it, he showed a nonchalant expression: "The emperor should investigate, after all, the household department is getting richer and richer, and it is indeed a department that can easily make money. Besides, this Daxia belongs to the emperor, so there is nothing wrong with it.”

"But I think it's not that simple!"

Qin Mowen took over the topic and said: "Even if the emperor wants to check the accounts, he has to go through the three provinces. He didn't go through the three provinces, so who did he send to check? It must be someone from his inner court!"

"Didn't you say that the emperor was short of money a few days ago? I'm worried that he will make a fuss in the Ministry of Household Affairs!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.

It goes without saying that the emperor now wants to take the household department into his hands, and if Yun Xiyan blocks his hand, he will definitely put Yun Xiyan aside.

It’s hard to say how to put this aside. If the accounts of the household department are used to make a fuss, a bad Yun Xiyan will not end up well.

Yun Xiyan then put away his lazy expression and became serious.

"...Does Master Ji know who the emperor sent to investigate?"

"Zhao Hou, the great **** of the inner court, Zhao Hou, led thirty eunuchs to the two mountains."

"Zhao Hou?"

Yun Xiyan frowned. This man was once a **** beside the Supreme Emperor, with the same status as Liu Jin. Now Zhao Hou and Liu Jin are serving the emperor, and are praised by the outer court as the two tigers in the inner court.

Perhaps they were intimidated by the prestige of the ministers who had been personally conferred by the Supreme Emperor. These two people did not dare to show off their power in front of the officials of the three provinces and six ministries. However, these two people now relied on the emperor's trust to show off in front of the new officials. Got enough prestige.

Obviously, both of them had forgotten the former Emperor's warning and completely fell in love with the Emperor.

Since the emperor sent Zhao Hou out, it shows how concerned the emperor is about this matter——

"What the hell, I'm afraid no matter how clean the accounts are, they will still cause some trouble."

Ji Yungui pondered for a moment, and then said: "Tianji Pavilion has sent people to keep an eye on it. The latest news I got is that they have not found any flaws in the poverty alleviation accounts, but... Zhao Hou seems to have turned his attention to another place. A special fund."

"The engineering troops are building two roads across the mountain. This money is also a special construction fund set up by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. The amount of funds is also huge. What I want to ask you is, are there any loopholes in this?"

"The Engineering Corps is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, so when the Ministry of Household Affairs reviews and allocates funds, it follows the request clauses sent by the Ministry of War... This thing was written by Mr. Zhuo, the Minister of the Ministry of War, according to the needs of the Engineering Corps, so it is usually reviewed It’s not too strict. After all, everyone in Jinqiaoyinlu knows where every penny is spent. This cannot be compared with the review of special funds for poverty alleviation. ”

Ji Yungui frowned and asked again: "You mean, you will allocate as much money as the Ministry of War requests?"

"Well, because the review of the use of funds for the engineering force is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Household Affairs can only give money. At most, it can only ask where the money is used, and it is difficult to know the details."

"If the Ministry of Household Affairs requested a sum of money, but the money did not go to the engineering team for road construction... the Ministry of Household Affairs has the responsibility of supervision!"

"Yes, Ke Wanzhi, the minister of the Ministry of household affairs, is responsible for the supervision of all allocations issued by the Ministry of household affairs."

"But you have to sign the words?"

"...Yes, I will sign and the Ministry of Accounts will allocate the money."

Ji Yungui took a deep breath, "Who is this Ke Wanzhi?"

"Once one of the Seven Sons of Nanxi, Zhuo Donglai was a classmate of Yunli Ge. He was a proficient in the examination that year, joined the Household Department in the second year of Daxia, and was promoted to the Minister of Household Affairs in the fourth year of Daxia."

"I understand. After the New Year, Ning Siyan will return to Chang'an, and he will personally protect your safety."

"Is it so dangerous?"

Ji Yungui said very seriously: "Maybe nothing will happen, or maybe it's more dangerous than you think!"
