When Xiao Kai heard that Du He was planning to eliminate several people from the Du family in the Ministry of Works, a look of excitement appeared on his face.

He patted his chest and said, "Brother Du, leave this matter to Brother Cui and me. I promise to do it clearly for you!"

"Brother, I have succeeded this time. My father will never be able to scold me again!"

After saying that, Xiao Kai left the office in high spirits.

This was the first time he had done something good in his life, other than causing trouble.

This time he would do something great and let his father see that he was a man who could accomplish things if he was serious.

"This guy!"

Du He smiled and shook his head, then calmed down and carefully reviewed the government affairs.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but when Du He had almost finished dealing with the government affairs, Yu Chang knocked on the door gently and walked in.

He saluted Du He respectfully with his fists clasped.

"Reporting to Minister Du, the Dali Temple Minister Sun Fujia has accepted Du Ye's case. Just now, the Dali Temple people came to collect evidence and took Du Ye away."

"And I have also relayed your opinion on the matter to Sun Dali, and Sun Dali said that he will punish the person severely!"

Seeing that Yu Chang was so understanding, Du He smiled and said to him.

"Minister Yu, thank you for your hard work."

"This is just a small matter that can be completed by the brothers below. Why bother you, a minister, to run around?"

No wonder Yu Chang, who had an amazing talent in calligraphy and knew nothing about the Ministry of Works, was promoted to the position of Vice Minister of Works.

In addition to his prominent background, his smooth character and profound knowledge of officialdom are also a great help.

Yu Chang said with a serious face: "Minister Du, this case involves you, it is no small matter!"

Although Du He is young, he is the Minister of Works, a third-rank official and one of the most powerful people in the court.

The officials below were ignorant, and as the Minister of Works, he could not take it lightly.

Du He waved his hand and said, "Minister Yu, I need to go to the East Palace now. I will leave all the affairs of the Ministry of Works to you."

"If there is something that cannot be resolved, you can send someone to the East Palace to find me."

Yu Chang clasped his fists respectfully in response.

"promise!"

He also heard the prince asking Du He to go to the East Palace after the court meeting.

There are only a few close ministers and favorites like Du He in the current court, such as Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong.

Du He handed the reviewed memorial to Yu Chang, then left the office with a calm expression.

The officials sitting in the lobby all showed constipated expressions on their faces when they saw the Shangshu leave the Ministry of Works again.

How can the Shangshu, whose mind is not on the Ministry of Works, lead them to achieve merit and receive rewards?

They found that since Du He took office as the Minister of Works, the Ministry of Works was no longer as lifeless as before, and exciting things happened every day.

Although what is happening now is not a good thing.

Du He had just walked out of the Ministry of Works when suddenly a tall figure jumped out from the corner of the building, and a strong smell of medicine wafted into his nose.

"Du Lao Er, give me back the money!"

A low voice came out of his mouth.

Du He looked carefully and found that the swollen person in front of him was Fang Yiai.

But he looks a little too miserable at the moment.

Fang Yiai saw Du He staring at him, and he also felt Du He's silent mockery of him.

A trace of anger suddenly rose in his heart, and he spoke with clenched teeth.

"Du Lao Er, don't act stupid in front of me."

"Hurry up and return the two carts of gold and silver treasures I gave you to me!"

"Otherwise, don't blame me for punishing you!"

He originally offered a large sum of compensation in an attempt to make amends for the mistake he had made.

But he had already been severely punished by His Majesty, and Du He had taken the money from him for free. He wouldn't be able to sleep well unless he got the money back.

Du He smiled and said, "Fang Lao Er, isn't that little bit of money a gift from you to Du Ping An?"

"You said it in front of all the civil and military officials that day. Could it be that you, Fang Lao Er, are such a scoundrel that you regret it?"

"I have never seen anyone as shameless as you!"

Fang Yiai laughed out loud when he heard what Du He said.

Two large carts of gold, silver and treasures are just small money?

And how could Du He not know what the money was used for?

I didn't expect that this little thief Du He would turn the tables and say that he was a shameless person.

Fang Yiai gritted his teeth and said, "Du Laoer, stop playing dumb with me. Return the silver quickly if you know what's best for you!"

"You don't want me to make a scene and accuse you of embezzling my two carts of gold and silver treasures, do you?"

Before Du He could speak, Fang Yiai swallowed and continued.

"I don't have a good reputation anymore, but you, the Minister of Industry, are different!"

"If this matter gets to His Majesty, I'm afraid you won't be able to report it to him!"

"As long as you return the gold and silver, I won't pursue the matter with you!"

Last night, Fang Yiai, who suffered from insomnia, thought for a long time and came up with many countermeasures.

This was to prevent the villain Du He from playing rogue and trying to embezzle his money.

Hearing Fang Yiai's threatening words, Du He's expression remained unchanged.

He spread his hands and said, "Fang Lao Er, the silver was received by Princess Chengyang. If you want to get it back, please go to Princess Chengyang and get it."

"If you want to make this public, I have no problem with that."

"Anyway, the person who received your gift is Princess Chengyang. You can go with His Majesty and the people from the Censorate to report Princess Chengyang."

what!

When Fang Yiai saw Du He's rogue look, he was completely stunned.

Throwing the problem to the princess wife, I didn’t expect that the handsome and elegant Du He would do such a dirty thing!

Pooh!

What a despicable and shameless person!

Although he dared to ask Du He to return the gold and silver, he did not dare to ask Princess Chengyang for it.

He has suffered several losses because of the princess's affairs and paid a heavy price. He can't suffer losses again.

Fang Yiai said in a deep voice: "Du Laoer, from what you said, there is nothing to discuss?"

"In that case, don't blame me for reporting you!"

After saying this, Fang Yiai turned around and strode away.

After he took some steps forward, his pace suddenly slowed down, and he muttered to himself in confusion.

"Why doesn't Du He say anything?"

"Is he not afraid at all?"

Thinking of this, Fang Yiai could only stop awkwardly, then turned around and spoke in a negotiating tone.

"Du He, as long as you return 50% of the gold and silver, this matter will be over!"

"This is my final bottom line!"

In order to get his money back, it's nothing to lose face.

Du He glanced at Fang Yiai as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.

Now that the money is in his pocket, how can he spit it out?

Do you think he is a boy who gives away money?
