Cheng Jianwei, a small official in the Ministry of Household Affairs, found out that there were 3,000 soldiers, but 8,000 people were paid.
She originally wanted to overturn the case for her father who had been in prison for ten years, but she did not expect that a fake military pay led to the defenders who had been wiped out by the court, the 270,000 mountain and river coupons owed by the founding of the country, and old debts all over the world that no one dared to acknowledge.
The prince used his military quota to buy loyalty, the eldest princess used old debts to run a girls' school, and the powerful officials used stolen military pay to buy the court's own IOUs. Everyone said they were saving people, and everyone paid their bills.
Cheng Jianwei only has an abacus, a general ledger and an uncompromising rule: debts must be acknowledged and crimes must be accounted for; whoever profits from the rules must first use their own power to compensate.
She searched all the way from Duzhisi to the East Palace, and from the palace gate to the dragon chair. It wasn't until she opened the last page of the account book that she discovered that what her father had left behind was not an unjust case, but an IOU that could rewrite the destiny of the world.
Intention: Power must pay for every choice, and real debt will not disappear because the creditor is humble.
