In fact, Dou Shen didn't know that the emperor had made a private "peace" with Gao Yue a few days ago.

In addition to the two princesses Lingxu and Yiyang, there is another key figure, namely Huo Zhongtang, the eunuch who is in charge of the emperor's private treasury.

The emperor wrote a letter to Gao Yue in the name of Li Fenglong, not only giving in, but also giving Gao Yue more cheap and self-dedication power, such as promising Gao Yue to immediately deal with the personnel, personnel, and command of the Imperial Camp during the war to suppress the Dangxiang.

Gao Yue, seeing the situation, he met his expectations, and at the same time understood the principle of stopping as soon as he was good, and became "intimate" with the emperor again. The most important thing was to pay 50,000 jin of money to Dayingku through Huo Zhongtang, and told the emperor that I am still your loyal minister and your disciple. If you give me power, I will do my best to do your business for you without any ambiguity.

The 50,000 yuan of money made the emperor angry. He was really happy that it was not the money itself. He was happy that it was the return of Gao Yue, the "son of the holy family" (or the "daughter of the emperor").

For the current political situation of the Tang Dynasty, a very strange and checks and balances have been formed:

Prime Minister Dou Shen wanted to attack Xingyuan and Fengxiang, especially Gao Yue's vassal states, and in the name of "reducing the tax on the army's food and materials" and paying the anvil and base book to the Ministry of Revenue (the two taxes were previously set up but were destroyed by Gao Yue), attempting to adjust the tax share ratio of the two taxes, with the purpose of seizing more benefits from the local area to enrich the court's treasury;

Dou Shen's measures were correct. If Gao Yue was the prime minister, he would do this, but Gao Yue was not. He is now the governor of Xingyuan. He believed that he was the party whose interests were infringed, so he firmly resisted Dou Shen's actions. His method was to extract the surplus of Xingyuan Fengxiang's financial surplus and offer it to the emperor to strengthen favor. In addition, he also handed over eunuchs like Tan Zhizhong and Huo Zhongtang to rely on this to fight against Dou Shen's prime minister's power;

So for the emperor, the treasury left and right treasury was under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister of the Southern Ya. If he agreed to Dou Shen adjust the tax amount and pay the local income other than the regular tax, the money would still be the money from the Ministry of Revenue in the treasury, and he would not get any benefits. But if he did not agree to Dou Shen, then Gao Yue and others would at least send the additional income to their Daying and Qionglin-Nei Curry in the name of "contributing".

Therefore, the money that Dou Shen planned was actually divided up by the emperor and Gao Yue. In summary, although Dou Shen's move was beneficial to the world and was considered to be a successor to Li Mi's claim, it also infringed on the rights and interests of the emperor and Gao Yue.

"You are very kind, but... Now that the war against Dangxiang and Xifan has started again, I am about to rely on the troops of Xingyuan, Fengxiang, Xichuan and other Fangzhen to conquer their achievements, but I do not want to make trouble. Please be patient and I will work with you after the matter is settled." Finally, the emperor said slowly.

Dou Shen also seems to understand:

The emperor and Gao Yue's old love has become stronger again!

So Dou Shen could only retreat with sadness.

But soon, an accident that made Dou Shen furious happened.

In front of the Zuozangku Guangsha on the side of Linde Hall, when Dou Shen arrived panting, another prime minister Ban Hong had already taken the cashier and a group of officials who were checking, and began to let the treasury officials start to carry countless silk cloth, gold, silver and money out.

"What is this to do!" Dou Shen asked anxiously.

The Tang Dynasty's national treasury was divided into left and right treasures, among which the right treasures contained tributes west of Chang'an, while the left treasures contained tributes east of Chang'an. They were all "principal treasury" and were managed by the prime minister. But now, Ban Hong took money from it in a grand manner, but Dou Shen was unaware of it.

Facing Dou Shen's questioning, Ban Hong was also disrespectful at all, because he originally thought that his class salary was far higher than Dou Shen. "According to the order of the Holy Lord, he would pay 300,000 guan of Zuozang, 700,000 guan of money from the Ministry of Revenue (Qingmiao Money Deposit), and 700,000 guan of money from the capital. In addition, the Holy Lord would pay 400,000 guan of money from the Daying Qionglin Deposit, totaling 1.4 million guan of money from the total, and deliver it to Bailicheng with light goods, and serve as the King of Pu, Gao Yue (the one who is the real power) to camp military funds."

Dou Hua almost vomited blood, and his hands trembled: "This, this, this..."

But Ban Hong ignored him at all and still did his own way.

This money was specially assigned to Gao Yue by the emperor and was fully allocated and used.

After returning to the class, Dou Shen looked extremely ugly. She sat on the bed without saying a word. Both clans came to ask what was going on. Dou Shen sighed and told the matter out.

Dou Shen was furious and said that Gao Yue flattered the ruler, made friends with powerful people, and embezzled the treasury money as military funds. Who is tolerant?

"But it's hard to defeat him..." Dou Shen said in regret.

The next day, Dou Shen patrols the streets as Jingzhao Shaoyin. When he happened to meet Guo Zhuan, he stood in the corner of the wall and talked with him.

Guo Zhuang mysteriously told Dou Shen that some things were too big, and in the emperor's mind, it was "the son-in-law has a son-in-law, and the man has a man's reason." If you want to change the emperor's likes and dislikes, you might as well start with small things. "Did Gao Yue not have bribes or bribes, and there are no flaws in the style of men and women?" Guo Zhuang said so.

"I believe Gao Yue has it, but if Gao Yue has it, I have it too. He would have it when I went to Pingkangfang to have sex with him. If I blame him, wouldn't it be a joke?" Dou Shen rarely had the wisdom to know himself.

Guo Zhuan smiled and said, "Your husband, you don't know. Why do you have to take action by yourself when you impeach Gao Yue? At the level of you and Dou Zhonglang, as long as you nod your head in many things, there are naturally countless people below who are willing to go through fire and water, such as me."

Dou Shen was overjoyed, and then Guo Zhuan patted his chest and promised that he would just leave these spies to him.

"Your Magistrate Guo..."

"But after the matter is accomplished, you can let the Emperor Zhuanzhi patrol the city and supervise the city." Guo Zhuan shamelessly quoted his own price.

"But your son is in the Xingyuan Dingwu Army!"

"It's okay, Zaizhen is the loyalty of the Tang Dynasty, how could he be the personal loyalty of Gao Yue? I hope he can be the general of the Shenwei Army in the future."

Dou Shen immediately reached an agreement with Guo Zhuan, and then this guy was very happy and thought it would be easier to use a thick piece like Guo Zhuan?

So Dou Shen decided not to tell his clan father about this surprise.

Dou Shen, who was unaware of this, was full of anger and moved to Ban Hong, who was against him everywhere. He believed that Ban Hong not only had salt and iron, but also coveted Duzhi and the Ministry of Revenue, and colluded with Gao Yue. Now he had to seize his pain and deal with him with precise and ruthless blows.

In addition, a clan Dou Rong told him that the Censorate had recently learned some situation in the southeast, where Xu Can, the magistrate of the Yangtze Salt and Iron Patrol, was also Ban Hong's confidant and seemed to have committed corruption.

Hearing this, Dou Shen's eyes lit up...

During this period, the emperor waited day and night in the Daming Palace, waiting for Gao Yue to enter the capital.

However, Princess Lingxu quickly sealed the letter, which was sent by the bu Zuoguan from Xingyuan Jinzuoyuan day and night.

"What, Gao Yue is not here to meet me? Is he still resentment towards me?" The emperor was extremely disappointed when he heard Lingxu's report.

Lingxu smiled, whispered to his father for a while, and then handed Gao Yue's handwritten letter to the emperor.

After listening to it, the emperor couldn't help but be overjoyed. Fang Ce, who said Gao Yue, really coincided with me!

Then the emperor's face suddenly changed. He seemed to remember something and stared at Lingxu in a daze.

Lingxu was a little furious when he was staring at by his father.
