Li Shimin was silent for a long time.

Sun Fujia, the minister of Dali Temple, seemed to have expected that His Majesty would be unsatisfied, so he remained silent and did not speak.

a long time.

Li Shimin said: "Chen Zhengtai is right."

"What?" Sun Fujia looked up in surprise, but saw Li Shimin looking at him gloomy.

Li Shimin's face was horrifying, and he stared at Sun Fujia: "Is it more than 300,000 yuan?"

"Thirty-one,4522 knots." Sun Fujia replied carefully.

Li Shimin said: "It's really zero or even a complete deal."

Then, Li Shimin said: "The Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, and the Censorate have dispatched so many people to find out these? If I remember correctly, I should still have stocks, right?"

"Go back to Your Majesty." Sun Fujia said: "It involves a lot of the debts of the Dou family. After selling the stocks and repaying the debts, there is almost not much."

"Author the debt?" Li Shimin stared at Sun Fujia: "Who do you owe and how much do you owe?"

Sun Fujia was calm and composed. He took out a memorial from his sleeve: "Please check it out."

The memorial was sent up, Li Shimin took it and opened it, with a wide variety of names and amounts on it.

And none of these so-called debt-owed creditors are fuel-efficient. Without exception, they are all nobles in the court and familiar aristocratic families in the world.

Li Shimin said: "If you owe the Cui family alone, you will have 750,000 pounds?"

"That's right." Sun Fujia said seriously: "This is still a twenty-three-year debt. Now, if the Dou family is not paid back the debt first, it will become a battle for profit between the emperor and the people. Therefore, the Ministry of Justice has discussed with me and it is better to pay off the debt first. Of course, the Cui family has the most debts, and other families have a lot of them. The Dou family is actually just an empty ambition, which is something that I have unexpectedly expected."

Li Shimin only felt dizzy.

I thought about it for half a year, but the result is...

More than 300,000 yuan is certainly a considerable wealth, but this is obviously many times less than what Li Shimin expected.

What's even more terrifying is that because Li Shimin has always had huge expectations for surveillance of the Dou family, he has become much more generous in the past six months.

Speaking of which, more than one treasury has been spent on more than 300,000 yuan in the past six months.

At this moment, he felt cold all over. Of course, he still didn't give up. He looked carefully at the details of the accounts and asked again: "What about the land, what about the land?"

"The land is sold." Sun Fujia continued to reply calmly: "This is considering that most of the land of the Dou family is not fertile land. If it is measured, most of the mountainous land will be included in the treasury, and the government will re-enlist tenants to cultivate, and there will be no surplus grain for it, so..."

"This is a low price!" Li Shimin said: "One acre of land in Guanzhong has only been sold for more than 300 yuan?"

This is almost not much different from grabbing.

"This..." Sun Fujia's calm face finally began to be different, and he said anxiously: "Most buyers are..."

Of course Li Shimin knew who the buyer was. Isn’t Sun Fujia’s meaning very obvious?

Many buyers? Even Sun Fujia can't afford to offend.

After all...

This Dou family is a piece of fat meat? Then many vultures shared it. And none of these vultures are fuel-efficient? After they feasted, what left for Li Shimin was just left with leftovers.

Of course? You have to recognize it even if you don’t recognize it in the palace.

After all... there are too many people involved? From Dali Temple? To the Ministry of Justice? To the Censorate? To the familiar aristocratic families in the world? There are also many great nobles, even royal relatives, who have a share. Not to mention these people, even if there are so many ordinary people, the court will have to punish the law in order to calm the affairs of the people!

Li Shimin finally realized that he had begun to face the difficulties of Emperor Yang of Sui. Those who supported the Li family ascended the throne had now begun to ask for compensation.

Li Shimin was in a bad mood. He stood up, frowned, walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, and then said murderously: "Tell me in person, Sun Fujia, you are the minister of Dali Temple. I value you so much. I only ask you one question, are all these true?"

Sun Fujia showed a bit of bitterness on his face. In fact, as the Dali Temple Minister, he thought at first he was just a trivial matter to search the Dou family.

But later, he realized that the water here was really unfathomable, and one person after another that he could not provoke gradually emerged.

At first he wanted to handle the matter impartially, but soon found that the officials and the vultures were already in a state of turmoil. When he realized the terrible thing here and wanted to escape, he was already extremely thrust away.

At this moment... he only felt that he was a scapegoat and was alone in bearing His Majesty's anger.

But he did not dare to express any words of those unspeakable things, and glanced at the angry Your Majesty, so... he bowed to the ground in shame and said, "Your Majesty, I... the crime of death, I... all the reports are true, and every account is correct. Your Majesty doesn't believe it... can be thoroughly investigated."

A thorough investigation...

Li Shimin squinted at him, and there was nothing else he didn't understand.

This is obviously saying that even if many officials are appointed in the world, nothing can be found.

Li Shimin sneered, and he began to miss when he was in the army!

In the army, the commander's words are just a word, and everyone will execute them without any compromise.

But now, he has become the lord of the world, but when faced with everyone, Li Shimin felt a little powerless.

In and out of the court, the government and the country are smart people. Everyone is too smart and will look back on anything. They will think about who they may offend, and everyone is walking on thin ice to make profits for themselves.

But only... no one takes Li Shimin's words to heart.

The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more angry he became, with a dark face and murderous intent, saying, "I will investigate thoroughly."

Sun Fujia stopped talking and bowed: "Your Majesty can definitely return your innocence to me."

Li Shimin said lightly: "You retreat."

"Here."

The person left, but Li Shimin paced back and forth anxiously. Zhang Qian, who was beside him, was already in fear.

Li Shimin pursed his lips and suddenly said, "Sun Fujia can't stay anymore."

"Your Majesty." Zhang Qian thought about it, but he stopped talking.

"What do you want to say?" Li Shimin looked at Zhang Qian with sharp eyes.

Zhang Qian finally settled down and said, "I... I have some words, but I don't know whether to say it or not."

Li Shimin looked at him coldly: "I'll say that."

"I have a lot of impression of Sun Fujia these days."

"Is that true?" Li Shimin thought.

"Sun Fujia, the minister of Dali Temple, has had a very good official reputation in recent days. Many memorials have mentioned it, saying that he is upright and honest, and now he is regarded as a capable minister inside and outside the court. Dali Temple is in order under his governance..."

Li Shimin's eyes flashed: "Why don't you say it?"

So Zhang Qian continued: "If Your Majesty wants to punish Mr. Sun at this time, it will not only attract a lot of dissatisfaction, but it will also arouse suspicion from the world! People will wonder why Sun Fujia is so good at official positions, why did Your Majesty alienate and depose him? Although Sun Fujia can resign and leave, he still does not lose the praise of the world. People will worship him as a noble person. But... Your Majesty's move will only remind people whether Your Majesty gradually... gradually... I am brave... They will think that Your Majesty is gradually stupid and can no longer tolerate the righteous gentlemen in the court. Therefore... I think that the matter of deposing Mr. Sun should be cautious."

Li Shimin suddenly became alert and said, "With so many benefits, they naturally have to praise Sun Fujia. Everyone should praise him, and the people in the world are not clear about it, so they will naturally be able to learn to speak out."

Zhang Qian looked at Li Shimin's face again and said, "So I think this matter should be cautious. Otherwise, not only will I not be able to find out anything in the end, but I will bear the bad reputation. Your Majesty is the Lord of the Nine Five, and every word and action involves the movements of the world... Slave... Slave... These words, I shouldn't have said..."

Li Shimin sighed at this moment, and he wanted to say, just...

But after thinking about it, he couldn't swallow his breath. He held his breath and said, "It turns out that they were all caught by Chen Zhengtai. I really don't know if this guy is a clever plan or if this guy has a crow's mouth."

After pausing, Li Shimin said, "Summon Chen Zhengtai into the palace."

Zhang Qian did not dare to neglect and nodded quickly: "Here."

……………………

Chen Zhengtai was hurriedly recruited into the palace. He thought he was asking Princess Sui'an about to give birth, but he didn't expect that Li Shimin would look cold and frosty.

Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but think to himself, could someone have interfered with my slander?

No, I, Chen Zhengtai, have never had a good reputation. Logically speaking, Your Majesty should have been immune to these slanderous words!

Chen Zhengtai first saluted in a regular manner and smiled dryly: "Your Majesty's complexion seems not very good."

Li Shimin gave Zhang Qian a wink.

Zhang Qian knew it and immediately took Sun Fujia's memorial and sent it to Chen Zhengtai.

When Chen Zhengtai saw the memorial that read: "Check the Dou family's detailed comments", he knew what was going on, and he was too lazy to read it. He said, "My son..."

Before he could continue, Li Shimin said, "I know what you said at the beginning. I only ask you one thing. Why did you conclude that the search for the Dou family would have the result today?"

Chen Zhengtai said: "The manpower used to search the Dou family must be quite large, and there must be huge profits in it, and the process of searching will inevitably last for a long time. With so much time, it is really too easy for someone to do things. But if a person is doing things, he will inevitably be worried and will naturally attract others. The final result... it may be a group of people who are gluttonous and bite off the pieces of meat. As for the accounts, it is actually very easy to do, and they will not have too much worry about the blame. After all... the wider the involvement, the more afraid the Your Majesty will be. If others eat it, how can you not eat it? Besides, wealth can be touching. Throughout the dynasties, the court has paid ten thousand guan, and it is rare to have a thousand guan for practical purposes. The same is true for scouting the house."

Li Shimin took a deep breath and said, "Of course I know what you mean, but what I never expected was that these people would dare to put their ideas on me."

Chen Zhengtai smiled awkwardly: "Didn't you still searched for more than 300,000 yuan? Erchen already felt that this was already very conscientious."

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to get angry, Chen Zhengtai immediately put away his joke and said, "But now that the result is coming out, Your Majesty can only swallow his anger. All the money has been put into someone's bag. It's harder than climbing the sky to take it out."

When Li Shimin thought that the money that originally belonged to him was thumping into someone else's pocket, he was very angry and gritted his teeth and said, "What if I'm not willing?"

"I'm not willing..." Chen Zhengtai said: "It's a pity... It's too difficult to investigate thoroughly, because you can't check the accounts. This account has been prepared for so long, and it must be seamless. There is no way to obtain evidence, because those who get benefits are unwilling to come out to prove it. If you want to implement the law, it is also difficult. If so many people involve them, they force the law. Their understanding of the law is much higher than that of ordinary people. So no matter whoever you look at it, the final result may not be able to be investigated. If you are a person, there will be relatives and friends, and there will be close relatives and old officials. If your Majesty appointed any minister to put him in the forefront, even if he can be upright, can he not recognize his relatives?"

Li Shimin agreed with this point. After hearing Chen Zhengtai’s words, he calmed down and said, “What you said is not unreasonable.”

Chen Zhengtai said: "Even if Fang Gong comes to investigate in person, my son thought he would never find out anything."

Li Shimin said: "Do I have to bear this tone? This is millions of dollars."

When Li Shimin thought of this, he felt sad. When he spent money happily, he always wondered, don’t I still have millions of dollars?

But now...

Chen Zhengtai said: "It's not completely impossible, but what Your Majesty needs is a lonely minister."

"Orphan?" Li Shimin stared at Chen Zhengtai.

"This person must be honest and honest. The most important thing is... this person has no connection with the people in the court."

"Just these?"

"And this person must have the absolute support of Your Majesty." Chen Zhengtai thought for a while: "If Your Majesty has any concerns, then this matter may end in failure."

Li Shimin said: "Who is the person you are talking about?"

"Deng Jian!" Chen Zhengtai said without hesitation: "My son thinks that Deng Jian can try it."

"Deng Jian..." Li Shimin had an instant impression of this person in his mind: "This person is taciturn on weekdays, can he accomplish such a big thing?"

"He was trained by the son-in-law himself. In the university, people call him Xiao Chen Zhengtai. With him, he can succeed!"
