Chapter 341 The country's worm
"Food is the foundation of the country. What else can you say about the borer of a country like you?" The sixth prince took the memorial and looked at Pei Yongjie with a depressed face.
Pei Yongjie led the people to stumble into the threshold of the post station, lifted his robe and knelt in front of the sixth prince, his head pounding.
"Your Highness the Sixth Prince, you have never done this."
Yu Linlang approached Mu Zhao with curiosity and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
Mu Zhao looked at her big eyes and smiled secretly, and also approached her to answer in a low voice, "Lord Lu had previously received a secret report from the head of Jinzhou Prefecture to close the warehouse, and after a secret investigation, he found out. Local officials and businessmen in Jinzhou Prefecture Collusion, secretly exchanged the old grain for new grain, secretly put it at the grain shop for sale at a high price, and all the ill-gotten wealth obtained was divided by the prefect of Jinzhou and the local wealthy businessmen. "
"Do you remember when we went to Weizhou Prefecture to provide relief to the victims, Changshi He sent someone to secretly mix sand in the rice soup?"
Yu Linlang nodded. She had heard of this matter at a moment. It is said that Lord Lu had a fierce quarrel with He Changshi at that time.
"In fact, when some of the relief grains were transported, there were a lot of sand, stone and soil blocks, which were not all intentional. Afterwards, I asked someone to go to investigate quietly. This kind of old valley was mixed with soil blocks. Most of the food is transported from Jinzhou, Fuzhou and other places. They are all very close to the imperial city." Mu Zhao said lightly.
"So Lord He took the blame at that time?" Yu Linlang was speechless.
"It can be said that." Mu Zhao sighed lightly, "At that time, food shortage, He Changshi had no choice but to do it."
A good wife cannot cook without rice, and everyone understands this truth.
"If you hadn't helped you later, the situation would not have been so easy to control." The end of the food outage must be a riot among the people, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Therefore, Mu Zhao realized that anything the emperor rewarded Linlang was something she deserved.
"This time Xiwen came to Jinzhou Prefecture to investigate the case of Wang Zeng, so I told him about the matter in advance and told him to investigate it secretly. Unexpectedly, Yu Ping, the local chief of Jinzhou Prefecture, came here risking his life... All the matters are stated in the memorial. "Mu Zhao handed the report written by Lu Shaoqing to Yu Linlang.
"Mr. Lu originally wanted to meet the emperor and report it in person after returning to Beijing. However, he was assassinated that night he returned to Beijing and was seriously injured and unconscious. The prefect yamen sent someone to take care of them, and he was secretly guarding him. He wanted to let Lu Shaoqing die. , the second is to find out the newspaper written by Lu Shaoqing and burn it."
"How dare they?" Yu Linlang quickly looked through the thick note, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became.
If the emperor does this under his nose, sucking the blood that has been closed for a long time is to absorb the blood of all people.
Changping warehouse is the basis for ensuring normal supply during natural disasters and man-made disasters. These people... actually resell Changping warehouse new grain rice and mixed the old grain and rotten sesame seeds into the warehouse, so that they can be punished by the inferior ones.
Jinzhou and Fuzhou are very close to the imperial city. Could this be the legendary... dark under the light!
"Xiwen has copied two copies of this memorial. One is buried under the tree in the backyard of the post station, one is hidden in her body, and the other is kept by the chief clerk Qiu Yuan."
"Two copies have been confiscated and destroyed. This one is the income dug out from the backyard of the inn."
Compared with the Jinzhou Prefecture Granary Case, Wang Zeng, the Minister of Justice, fell second.
The granary of Jinzhou shakes the root of the country. If this matter is reported to Your Majesty, Pei Yongjie's family will probably be confiscated and destroyed. No wonder he counterattacked like this crazy and wanted to kill Lu Shaoqing.
Either he dies or he dies. There is no way out when the chess game has reached this point.
"No need to make a quibble." The sixth prince sneered and said sternly, "Unless you kill this prince now! Otherwise, this report, as well as the evidence of the co-star, will be presented to His Majesty's case tomorrow morning!"
Pei Yongjie was about to collapse on the ground, shouting "I am wronged by the empress" and his head was covered in cold sweat.
"The Changping position is all managed by Li Tongzhi and Zhou Tongzong. I really don't know!" "Chen Gu replaced new grain and bought and sold it! Such a big news, do you think it can be done in one day or two days? Weighing it doesn't take time to take ? It doesn’t take time to enter the warehouse? ? Don’t say you don’t know at all! I think you just turned a blind eye to the Jinzhou grain warehouse and fill your own small treasury! ”
"Your Highness is wronged!" Pei Yongjie opened his mouth and howled, robbing the land with his head, "I am willing to show my ambitions by death."
He got up and was about to hit the wall aside.
The sixth prince and the prince both watched coldly.
One said, "Let him die! He will bear all the charges for death."
Another said, "Anyway, we are going to die, why not tell the people behind us?"
Pei Yongjie fell to the ground with a fall, sweating and tears flowing.
Yu Linlang pursed her lips and pressed her joking smile.
This is a good show that Lord Pei is just doing, and he dare not really kill himself.
Yes, I don’t want to die after I have accumulated so much money.
How great is it to be alive? Isn’t it good to enjoy it every day?
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
The Sixth Prince looked at him coldly, suddenly stood up and raised the gold medal in his hand and shouted, "Everyone in Jinzhou Prefecture obeys the orders and doesn't want to die with Prison Pei. Take care of your own skin. Don't do those meaningless little moves!"
"I came here with the prince and the prince, who were on the order of his father to investigate the Jinzhou Prefecture. Today, I only brought some guards of the Dragon and Tiger Camp here. If any of us were lost, the 100,000 imperial guards would be ordered to be in danger. At that time, he will step down the Jinzhou Prefecture!”
"Think clearly, are you really going to rebel? Want to bring the whole clan together?!"
The officials of Jinzhou Prefecture, together with the soldiers, all lay on the ground, and did not dare to raise their heads half an inch.
"Everyone is ready to return to Beijing!"
"Sixth Prince." The guards beside the sixth prince said with worry, "You and the prince came together on a starry night. Now that you have not entered the water, you are going back to Beijing. I am afraid that your body will not be able to bear it..."
"It's important to do not waste time! The rest are trivial matters." The sixth prince turned to look at Mu Zhao.
Mu Zhao nodded slightly to him. The Sixth Prince was greatly encouraged. He raised his hand and shouted out the door, "Send the order and prepare to leave immediately. Let everyone stand first, wait After returning to Beijing, everyone will be rewarded with meat!”
"Yes!" The soldiers of the Dragon and Tiger Camp were in a stir.
"Fox, the matter is urgent. The Sixth Prince and I will send someone back to Beijing first. You can watch Lord Lu here and come back together when he gets better."
Yu Linlang nodded her head, "Wait for me."
She ran upstairs, took a packet of egg noodles, and stuffed it to Mu Zhao along with the water bag, "Be careful of ambushing the road and beware of dogs' in a hurry."
"Don't worry, I know it."
Yu Linlang took out another bottle of pill and stuffed it to him, "Your health has not been fully recovered. This pill can replenish your physical strength. If you are really tired, take one pill. Take at most one pill a day and do not abuse it."
Mu Zhao took the opportunity to hold her hand tightly, "Leave two hundred people for you, be careful in everything."
