The ministers who happened to approach outside the door stopped for a moment, and after just a few breaths, they suddenly quickened their pace again!
It's better to come early than to come by chance!
There were big melons to eat when they arrived. Isn't that a blessing that they worked hard during the trip?
"Good luck to you!"
"Master is in good health!"
All Upright Officials greeted Emperor Mingze happily, and then stood happily in the corner, forgetting the purpose of coming here for a short time.
Anyway, they are mainly here to show off their faces today, so let's not talk about that trivial matter!
Eating melon is important!!
Jiao Hongmiao:"..."
Jiao Hongmiao gritted his teeth hard and resisted the urge to go up and beat his colleagues with all his willpower.
But the veins on his forehead couldn't stop beating.
Eat eat eat!
Just know how to eat!
Eating everything will only harm you!!
At the same time, he was also very confused in his heart.
--He really wanted to know what his bastard brother had done, but he didn't want to learn about it in such a "lively" situation.
However, the little guy's heartbeat resounded happily, and he didn't care whether Uncle Jiao, whom she had exposed, was happy or not, whether he was social or not, he just used her soft and waxy childish voice to eat melon, with a sense of beauty that didn't care about the lives of others at all.
Jiao Hongmiao closed his eyes hard.
The greedy wind finally hit him Jiao Hongmiao.
[Well... it's a bit messy... let Chengcheng sort it out first...]
On Grand Tutor's Chair, which was covered with several layers of soft cushions, Jiang Yingcheng frowned and his round eyes were full of doubts.
[Uncle Jiao's family's main property is recorded in the name of his Uncle's wife's sister's husband's nephew... well...]
This relationship is too complicated. Jiang Yingcheng just read the information once and felt dizzy. His head was full of food.
The ministers present also followed the little guy's thoughts and touched on the relationship. Only halfway through the relationship, they all turned their attention to Jiao Hongmiao with a blank expression on their faces.
You can really get around!!
Jiao Hongmiao lowered his head, placed his toes on a small piece of open space in front of him, and slowly swept back and forth.
Well...
This...
He also has his own reasons.
Although the current dynasty did not prohibit family members of officials from doing business, his status as Minister of Revenue was still very inconvenient, and it was inevitable that he would have to avoid taboos...
By recording the business in the name of such a distant relative who is almost not a relative, firstly, he can avoid criticism from many political opponents. Secondly, since he still holds the official position of Minister of Revenue, he does not have to worry about being attacked by the other party.
This move has no harm at all. He just made a mistake that all Minister of Revenues in the world would make. To round it off, it means - he is not wrong!
[Well... they are, they are relatives!] Jiang Yingcheng's brain failed to activate and simply and crudely determined the relationship between the two.
[Although this relative apparently owns these shops, in fact, they are all managed by Uncle Jiao's wife.]
[Uncle Jiao also trusts his wife very much and never interferes too much in matters... Wow! It seems like Uncle Jiao is still a good family man!]
Although this kind of thing is not a big deal in modern times, if we put it now...
That is really a rare quality!
Jiao Hongmiao couldn't help but show a proud look on his face, raised his chest and raised his head, feeling hoarse in his heart--
Yes!
That's right!
Just promote him like this!!
He is such a good husband who loves and protects his wife--
[But it is precisely because of this that Uncle Jiao's younger brother is given an opportunity!]
Jiao Hongmiao The smile on his lips froze.
Hearing the words of praise coming from the little guy's heart at first made him so excited that he forgot for a moment that they were telling such a fatal message.
[Uncle Jiao's younger brother lied and claimed that a friend introduced him to a huge order. He wanted to order a large quantity of goods from Uncle Jiao's firm. Because he was introduced by his family, Aunt Jiao did not have any doubts and agreed to the matter on the spot.]
Jiao Hongmiao was stunned for a moment, and then a cold air spread from the soles of his feet to the top of his head!
He really had some impression of this matter!
Some time ago, his wife suddenly became in a good mood--
It's not that she was in a bad mood on weekdays, it was just that during that period, every time the two of them met, her face was filled with an unstoppable smile, her whole person was beaming with joy, and she was extremely busy.
He was so mysterious that if he asked her what she was doing, she would laugh out loud happily, but she would not tell him what happened and claimed that she would give him a surprise in the future.
Later, he learned from others that it was his incompetent brother who introduced a huge order to his family.
--How happy he was then, how angry he is now.
Hello Jiao Hongxi! So you were waiting for him here!!
OK!
Well done!!
[What a wonderful scene where a friend comes out of nowhere to secretly visit Chen Cang!]
[This is a complete bureau!]
[That person is the gangster he hired with money. He stole the deposit from the Jiao Mansion. Only the goods that Aunt Jiao is about to deliver are real!]
Jiao Hongmiao heard roars in his ears, and his nerves collapsed into a straight line. He even felt that as long as someone touched him just a little bit--
"Click--"
Suddenly there was an extremely subtle and crisp sound, which was infinitely amplified by his fragile nerves.
Jiao Hongmiao suddenly raised his head with red eyes and looked fiercely in the direction of the sound!
"Um..."
Ministry of Rites Minister Chu Jiaxu took out a handful of melon seeds from somewhere. When Jiao Hongmiao looked at it, he smiled and stretched out his hand, "Want some?"
Jiao Hongmiao:"..."
Jiao Hongmiao:"???"
Still human?
Are you still human?!
[Ah!!]
The little guy on the seat suddenly let out an earth-shattering roar in his heart.
[Due to the delay in the construction period, Aunt Jiao has not yet had time to hand over all the goods to Uncle Jiao's brother. It may be too late to stop it now!]
Jiang Yingcheng, who was sitting peacefully on Grand Tutor's Chair, suddenly twisted into a caterpillar: [No, we can't delay any longer, Chengcheng must find a way to tell Uncle Jiao right away!]
Jiao Hongmiao's sad and angry mood was finally relieved a little at this moment.
Woohoo, it has to be his little dumpling!
The pain is not in vain!!
As for the little guy's little note...
It's not like we can't save it--
Jiao Hongmiao turned around and made eye contact with Lu Yao, who was among the group of spectators.
Lu Yao nodded in understanding and stepped forward. "Brother Jiao! There is a thief in your house!!"
Jiao Hongmiao:"..."
Otherwise, you'd better kill me.
Even though the process was not satisfactory, Lu Yao finally successfully completed the report. After getting Emperor Mingze's approval, Jiao Hongmiao left here in a hurry.
Jiang Yingcheng The important matter hanging in his mind was solved, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
[Fortunately, okay, it would be great if Uncle Jiao knew about this!]
But when it comes to money--
[Lifeng Why hasn't brother come back yet?]Jiang Yingcheng's mouth narrowed, [System Bro System Bro, please help Chengcheng check, what are the two of them doing?!]
Present Upright Officials:"..."
How did the two of them get connected with money?!
