Chapter seven hundred and ninth hands stained with sin
There were sounds coming from not far away. The Minister of Revenue did not know what sound he heard, but he knew that he was not far from his death. He did not know that this time the matter would be so serious. Those who fell into the prison had never been alive. This might be their destination.
"Dadada" footsteps were heard slowly in this dark prison. The Minister of Revenue was still leaning on it. He was thinking about this matter and was also struggling with this matter. He didn't know what he should say or what he could say. Maybe he really did something wrong? Maybe he shouldn't be corrupt?
A roaring sound rang, followed by the humble voice of the prisoner, "Prince, this is the prison cell of the sinner. According to your instructions, there is no shortage of things, nor is it allowed to be whipped. It is just put here like this to let him know that he is in the prison."
Zhao Rong's voice sounded, "Okay, you go down first, I'll say a few words to the Minister of Revenue here."
Then, another sound of footsteps sounded. He looked at the Minister of Revenue, and then slowly spoke, "Mr. Liu, are you still happy in this prison? I wonder if you regret it now, and you think you shouldn't have touched that amount of money? Or, you are regretting it at this time, why do you want to embezzle it?"
As he said this, Zhao Rong had a smile on his face, and he just slowly said, "I don't know what Lord Liu is thinking about this matter." As he said this, the expression on his face was also faint. He was not happy because he didn't know why these individuals usually embezzled, but they still had to embezzle at this time. Don't they know what the money is for? No, they know, but they still took action.
Liu Shangshu just took a breath, then put down the book in his hand, just looked at Zhao Rong not far away and said slowly, "Okay, the prince doesn't have to say this anymore. I already know that this is a trap set by the prince and his majesty for me. No matter how I do it, I can't escape this trap. After all, who can escape the emperor's plan?"
Zhao Rong shook his head and said, "No, in fact, you can escape the emperor's calculations, and even, you can escape the trap set by the emperor and Prince Yan, but you still stepped in and then became what you are today. You know, all this is because of your own greed. We all know that this greed is terrible, terrible that we ourselves don't know ourselves in the end, and in the end, we can only become what we hate the most."
Shangshu Liu looked at Prince Yan and said, "Can you escape? Can you let me go if I don't move this money? How is that possible? I won't believe this. Since the emperor is ready to kill me, who else can save me? Unless it is your Prince Yan, but how could you save me? How is it possible?"
As he said this, he also laughed bitterly.
Zhao Rong sat there, sitting on the ground, and did not dislike the dirty ground. He raised his head and looked at the person not far away and said, "Mr. Liu, the emperor actually did not want to kill you. As long as you don't move this money, we will feel that you still have a little conscience. In the eyes of Your Majesty and I, as long as you have a little conscience, the family members of the Flower Planting Family can be spared, they can be educated slowly, and they will not be punished by death."
Liu Shangshu frowned. He felt that Zhao Rong was deceiving him, but he was even willing to do this kind of deception. He raised his head, then looked at Zhao Rong and said, "Really?"
Zhao Rong nodded and said, "Yes, the emperor and I have no intention of making up our minds, but you have done too much. Since that's the case, the emperor and I have not shown mercy in their hands. You must die."
Liu Shangshu had pale face, but also confused, doing too much? How did they do too much? Did they get more money this time? He looked at Zhao Rong and then asked, "Is it because we got a little more money this time? Or is it because of something else?"
Zhao Rong looked at Liu Shangshu and seemed to really not know. The contempt in his heart was a little lighter. He looked at Liu Shangshu and said, "This time the silver is used to open a property for Tiangong and 10 million to build a university. You didn't move these two, I'm very happy. Although you didn't move because you were afraid that I would do it, you know this. I'll tell you now, what is the other 40 million used for?"
Liu Shangshu looked at Zhao Rong, he didn't know that the other 40 million had any other uses? He looked at Zhao Rong and waited for Zhao Rong to continue speaking. Zhao Rong looked at the Minister of Revenue and said, "Of courses of the remaining 40 million, 10 million were to be taken out to establish the junior and young bureau, and to take in the elderly and abandoned children who were not raised by anyone. There were 30 million, of which 5 million were given to the soldiers on the frontier. They could not fight in thin clothes in the cold winter. Five million was to build roads for the people so that they could live a good life as soon as possible. The remaining 20 million, 10 million was to establish a pharmacy, so that the people in the world could afford to see a doctor and not die of illness. The other 10 million was to popularize some ordinary first aid and herbs, so that all the people could live and work in peace and contentment."
After Zhao Rong finished speaking, Liu Shangshu's hand trembled a little. He looked at his hand, as if there were so many blood stains on the meeting. He raised his head and looked at Zhao Rong and said, "My hands are stained with the blood of the soldiers on the frontier, the blood of the elderly and widows, the blood of the young children, stained with the blood of the people of Daliang?"
Zhao Rong nodded, yes, although it was a bit cruel to say this, yes, the Minister of Revenue took away the silver and was stained with the blood of these people.
He looked at the Minister of Revenue and then said, "Two years ago, when the Ministry of Works transferred the money to build a water conservancy project, your Ministry of Revenue only gave half of the money. The people of the Ministry of Works had no choice but to use inferior materials. After that, the flood broke the dam and killed 30,000 people. After that, your Ministry of Revenue gave 3 million taels of silver less. Half of these three million taels of silver were put into your pocket. Because in this case, another 100,000 people died in the disaster area, and then starved to death, and more than 3,000 people were still missing. From then on, more than 3,000 people were lost."
Shangshu Liu was almost fainting, 30,000, 100,000, 50,000, more than 3,000, and 183,000 people died because of him?
