  Chapter 322 The crime of deceiving the king! Strict investigation!

In Wu Zongda's impression, the last time they pretended to be poor in front of the emperor, when they saw the Maoshan Iron Mine stock soared and asked the court to distribute benefits to the people, Uncle Zhang Gui was the first to agree, and because of this Even the emperor had to agree with it.

At that time, Wu Zongda himself felt very surprised, but now, he finally understands that this uncle of the country is sure that the resources of Maoshan Iron Mine will not be taken away by Jiannu and other secret forces opposing the New Deal. Only those who intend to take this opportunity to earn more are willing to benefit the people at that time.

And because of this, in Wu Zongda's view, since Zhang Gui was advocating the principle of benefiting the people in order to make more profits at that time, in order to keep the implementation of the New Deal, he must now let Uncle Zhang suffer the consequences, so that he can't step down for this reason, or don't recognize the New Deal. One of the goals is to benefit the people, or sell the swallowed stocks honestly!

   Wu Zongda is not the only one who thinks this way, Kong Zhenyun and other rich and powerful bureaucrats who have suffered huge losses because they only want to speculate to make money, also think so.

  So, at this time, Kong Zhenyun also said: "Uncle Zhang Guo will not and is unwilling this time, so why did the Maoshan Iron Mine stock issue be for the benefit of the people?"

  Chen Zizhuang couldn't stand it now, and said angrily, "What's the point!"

Then, Chen Zizhuang turned to Apocalypse: "Your Majesty, the Maoshan Iron Mine was originally only owned by the imperial court, but now the shares are issued so that all people can register to buy them! This is already a benefit to the people. As for the current Maoshan Iron Mine stocks are mostly The ministers and other ministers owned it, not obtained in vain, nor did we intentionally manipulate it, but we got it because we were willing to be loyal to the emperor when we broke up the family and built the country at that time, not to mention competing for profit with the people!"

"What's more, if there are subjects such as ministers who have made huge profits when buying stocks and then give up the profits, this will not help the people to actively take profits with the court, but it will go against the original intention of benefiting the people! Please learn from your majesty! "

  Kong Zhenyun sneered: "A gentleman should despise profits and value righteousness. Why does Uncle Da Zong really not want to distribute wealth to the people just because he made a lot of money for a while, sophistry here!"

"Hmph, if Mr. Kong Ge insists on believing that His Majesty will return to the court with a big victory when the stock market plummets and everyone thinks that His Majesty will return to court, or if he is willing to withdraw his capital to buy back stocks for Daming to stabilize the people's hearts, and make a big profit now, then Chen must have no jealousy!"

  Chen Zizhuang satirized Kong Zhenyun at this time.

  Kong Zhenyun blushed immediately, and immediately stretched out a sleeve with a large patch to wipe away tears:

"Your Majesty, please be the master of my minister! I have always been loyal to your majesty, and I would never have the heart to destroy my family and the country. It's just that I have always been an upright official, loyal to your majesty, and not loyal to money, so the family property has always been He is meager, and now the whole family eats porridge, so how can he not only show his loyalty like Uncle Dazong, but also justifiably turn the people's interests that should be shared by the imperial court into private wealth!"

   "Nowadays, Da Zongbo said this, and he clearly felt that the minister was disloyal. The minister really had no way to defend himself. Now he can only resign because he doesn't want to be an official in the same court as him!"

As he said that, Kong Zhenyun looked at Zhang Gui again, and said, "But before that, I still want to ask Uncle Guo, will Uncle Guo still take the initiative to give benefits to the people like before?! "

  Wu Zongda also echoed: "That's right, the ministers are clean and honest, in order not to take advantage of the people, and the country's uncle is upright, so it must not let the people lose, right?"

   As he spoke, Wu Zongda also deliberately exposed a part of his patched clothes, and then maliciously

At this time, Zhang Gui said: "Qizou Your Majesty, today I don't want to talk about the so-called benefiting the people and giving benefits to the people, I just want to report one thing today, and this thing is the crime of deceiving the emperor by pretending to be clean! "

As Zhang Gui said, he took out a roster: "Your Majesty, this is the West Factory. These days, after investigating the sudden appearance of a large number of new wealthy businessmen who have invested huge sums of money to buy and sell Maoshan Iron Mine stocks, some officials have been suspected of deliberate Deceive the evidence of His Majesty!"

Then, Zhang Gui said again: "Your Majesty, for the sake of their own image, it is normal for the powerful and bureaucrats not to be willing to directly participate in the affairs of Liyin. It is nothing. However, if you pretend to be poor in front of Your Majesty, saying that you are already struggling with food and clothing, But in private, letting your own people take huge sums of money to buy a large number of high-priced stocks is obviously a suspicion of deceiving the emperor and the world!"

   "Therefore, I ask Your Majesty to punish these deceitful people severely! Their behavior not only deceives the emperor, but also deceives those virtuous ministers who are sincerely poor because they are clean and honest officials!"

  After Zhang Gui said this, Kong Zhenyun and Wu Zongda changed their faces on the spot, and many people couldn't help but feel their backs getting cold, and some had already started to consciously hide their patches in the sleeves of their official robes.

   "There is such a thing! Submit it immediately!"

  Tian Qi couldn't help being refreshed at this time after hearing this, and hurriedly gave instructions.

Because of this, some conservative ministers directly came out to make suggestions: "Your Majesty, I think that although there are ministers who may have a lot of money, it doesn't mean that they can't be poor and happy, so they can't be regarded as deceiving the emperor! So I think this matter There is no need to study it further, and in addition, as for whether those who hold a large amount of Maoshan Iron Mine stocks should sell them, it should be left to their own discretion, after all, the number of stocks they hold is the subject of His Majesty, so there is no need to pursue it!"

  Obviously, these conservative ministers have already begun to plan to die down, fearing that the emperor will really start to investigate them for the crime of deceiving the emperor by pretending to be poor in front of the emperor.

   "Kong Zhenyun! Wu Zongda..."

   But at this time, Tian Qi had already ordered with a cold face, and first directly named Kong Zhenyun and Wu Zongda.

At this time, Kong Zhenyun was already in shock because he learned that Zhang Gui had been investigating a large number of new wealthy businessmen, and now when Zhu Youxiao named him, he collapsed and crawled He fell on the ground and cried: "Your Majesty! I am really poor now! I really did not deceive the emperor. Uncle Guo must be framing me. I hope your Majesty will learn from you!"

  Wu Zongda also said at this time: "Your Majesty, the subject is also very wronged, how dare the subject deceive the king! Now that the uncle of the country is so slandering the subject, I still hope that your majesty will be the master!"

At this time, Zhang Guidao: "In addition to the evidence presented above, I would like to ask for an order to raid their homes, and then I will be able to support the assertion of the witness! Because as far as I know, although they are now poor, they still leave money for their children and grandchildren. There are a lot of furniture, and many of them haven't had time to be shipped out of the capital!"

"allow!"

  Kong Zhenyun shouted excitedly at this time: "Uncle Guo, if you can't copy it, you have to publish it in the newspaper to prove my innocence!"

  Zhang Guidao: "Elder Ge, don't worry! If you frame Elder Ge, my country will take the initiative to plead guilty!"

  For a while, Zhang Gui brought someone to the Confucian Mansion first, and ordered: "Copy!"

  Liu Zongmin rushed in with someone first.

  But not long after, Liu Zongmin ran back: "Master Guo, this Confucian mansion is really impoverished!"

  Kong Zhenyun laughed triumphantly after hearing this: "Uncle Guo, you should know by now that you are framing Zhongliang?!"

  Zhang Gui smiled coldly: "Let's go directly to Zhangyuan outside the city!"

  Kong Zhenyun's legs went limp after hearing this.

But when he came to the ornately decorated Zhang Garden, Kong Zhenyun still yelled sternly: "Uncle Guo, don't you want to point out that this mansion belongs to me? Even if you want to slander the old man You can't be so reckless!"

   "Grandfather!"

  At this time, Zhang Gui asked Liu Zongmin to call the hostess and the hostess in the garden. Among them, a child ran to Kong Zhenyun's side and acted like a baby.
