The most romantic little emperor

After breakfast.

Qin Hao was in a rare good mood. After returning to the East Palace, he asked A Yue to invite Guo Jia to meet him in the study.

Afterwards, he began to deal with some government affairs.

After a while, Guo Jia came, and Qin Hao immediately put down the memorial in his hand and went to greet him.

After the greetings, Guo Jia was in high spirits and said excitedly, "Your Highness, you are really good at making something out of nothing! I'm afraid Kong Boli is doomed this time."

"Your Highness, you don't know. I dare not say others, but this Kong Boli is definitely a corrupt official and a parasite of the country."

"When I was still on duty in the court, Kong Boli had just come to the Ministry of Revenue and was still a small deputy minister. However, his official rank was promoted very quickly. In just two years, he became a chief official and was promoted to a doctor."

"Later, I also learned by chance that the reason why he was promoted so quickly was that Kong Boli was not very good-looking, but he married an extremely beautiful wife who was good at singing and dancing and had a great figure. Once, Kong Boli invited Su Zhengfang to a banquet and took the opportunity to offer his wife to Su Zhengfang. After that, he catered to Su Zhengfang's taste and sent beautiful women and gold and silver to Su Zhengfang. He always did it at his home, which was very secretive and few people knew about it. From then on, he began to rise rapidly and became arrogant and domineering, taking the opportunity to make a lot of money. I heard that every time the Ministry of Revenue allocated silver, he took kickbacks. Someone once reported this matter, but Su Zhengfang suppressed it. I guess the two of them had colluded with each other and embezzled the national treasury. Otherwise, the national treasury would never have even 500,000 taels of silver."

"Your Highness, I suggest that we take this opportunity to immediately detain him and thoroughly investigate the corruption. Taking him down will serve as a warning to the enemy."

Qin Hao heard about this. Although he hated Kong Boli to the extreme, he thought for a moment and cursed: "This man is the most evil. You should search for evidence first and don't touch him for the time being, so as not to alert the enemy. God will make him crazy before he destroys him. We must get the key evidence and catch them all in one fell swoop."

Guo Jia asked, "Your Highness, who is God?"

Qin Hao said helplessly, "That's God's will."

"Old Guo, the reason I asked you to go to provide disaster relief this time is just superficial. I have another secret mission for you."

Guo Jia's face turned stern, and he realized the seriousness of the matter. He nodded and said, "Your Highness, please speak."

"I want you to secretly investigate the empty treasury!" Qin Hao uttered each word with determination.

Guo Jia frowned, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

Qin Hao waved his hand and said, "Old Guo, you are my man now. If you have anything to say, just say it directly. I absolutely believe in you and will never blame you for your words."

Guo Jia felt warm in his heart and slowly said, "Your Highness, is this your intention? Or is it the Emperor's intention?"

"Haha, I'm sure you will ask this question. I'll tell you now. This is both my intention and my father's intention." Qin Hao answered readily.

"Your Highness, have you and the Emperor really made up your mind? The corruption among officials in Daxia has been going on for a long time. Even among the towering trees, there are termites everywhere. If we investigate, I'm afraid many people will be implicated!"

Qin Hao had thought of this, and said calmly, "My father and I are determined to fight to the death. Don't you, Old Guo, have the courage to bring these parasites down?"

Guo Jia's face was solemn, and he spoke passionately: "Why should I not dare? Your Highness has sent me personally, so I, Guo Jia, will march forward without hesitation!"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Qin Hao said yes three times in a row. This old man had an upright temperament and was the candidate he wanted.

"But don't make this public for now. Let's investigate secretly first. It won't be too late to do anything after the disaster relief is completed."

"Right now, you must give me a disaster relief plan as soon as possible. Also, stop spending on repairing the palace and focus on disaster relief."

Then he sat down at the desk again and said, "I don't trust the people in the court. You can recruit some people you trust. In addition, I will give you a handwritten order to find Wang Jian and ask him to arrange a guard for you to use. On the one hand, they will protect your safety and help you find out the news. Otherwise, your life will be in danger at any time and anywhere. In addition, it will be difficult for you to change the situation by yourself."

Guo Jia was so moved that he knelt on the ground and said to Qin Hao, "Your Highness, I will go through fire and water and die without hesitation."

Qin Hao helped him up and scolded, "Old Guo, don't be so desperate. We all need to live well."

Guo Jia quickly agreed and then asked, "Your Highness, I hope my daughter is not causing any trouble for you while she is here with you!"

Qin Hao asked Yue'er to call Xuanxuan over, and said, "Sister Xuanxuan is very well-behaved. I asked her to learn etiquette from the Crown Princess."
