Chapter 467: Digging a Hole
"Oh, where are they?"
Ke Qing replied, "This morning, my father found someone to send a message and said that it was okay. It is a great fortune of the prince, and now they are working in the Wuwei government office."
This is by no means a polite statement. If it were not for Zhu Jinghong's face, how could the Chief Secretary of Gansu care about these two petty officials, let alone make a special trip to treat them Transferred to Wuwei Fuyamen.
Zhu Jinghong said calmly, "Since they are in the Wuwei County Government, then I will send someone to call them and meet you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ke Qing Happy and happy.
Taking her into his arms, Zhu Jinghong smiled and said, "If you want to thank me, you can't just say it with your mouth."
"Then please teach me how to thank you." "My kindness?" Ke Qing lay in Zhu Jinghong's arms and asked softly with her head held high.
Putting his finger on her cherry mouth, Zhu Jinghong lowered his head and said with a smile, "Of course I'll use it."
"Ah" Keqing was a little surprised, and in an instant she understood something. His face turned red.
"I"
"If you don't say anything, you are willing. There is nothing wrong with you now, so I will consider you agree."
Yan Zhu Jinghong didn't wait for Ke Qing's reply, picked her up and walked to the back room.
But outside the room, Yu Hai consciously ordered someone to go to Wuwei Mansion to take Qin Ye and his son away. Please come here.
As for the Governor's Office, Ning Huanxiang sent Wang Pei'an away, but his face didn't look good.
He knew the "wage" of the people. "I was partially corrupted, but I just wanted to remind some people that enough is enough, and did not mean to dig deeper.
This also means that Wang Pei'an's attitude of doing things impartially is consistent with Ning Huanxiang's intention Contradictory.
However, Wang Pei’an did not deviate from the Ming Dynasty law, and he was also ordered to inspect the place, so Ning Huanxiang had no way to refuse his request.
“My lord, this person. He is frivolous and ignorant. You can’t let him do whatever he wants.”
The person who spoke was Guo Qiyun, the Chief Secretary of Gansu Province. He only took up the post of Chief Secretary two months ago. Naturally, he did not want to be criticized under his leadership. It caused turmoil.
Beside him was Gansu Inspector Fu Andong, who also followed up and said, "That's why things here are already messy. We can't let him cause more trouble for us." ”
After hearing what these two people said, Ning Huanxiang showed his dissatisfaction and said, “There is no smoke without fire, and it’s not because someone is greedy for money that caused these things.”
Just listen to the news Political envoy Guo Qiyun said, "Sir, there are many things involved in this matter, not just someone who is corrupt."
Of course Ning Huanxiang knows that the matter is not simple. If a serious investigation is required, it may not only extend to the Gansu officialdom, but all the way to the imperial court and six ministries. It's all possible.
After being in the officialdom for so many years, Ning Huanxiang understands that the so-called officialdom is a network, and everyone is interconnected on this network.
Inspector Fu Andong continued. "My Lord Governor, if you let him continue to act like crazy, I'm afraid it will make people panic., but it is not conducive to the overall situation of counterinsurgency."
"That's it." Guo Qiyun also spoke.
"I say what you two should do now is to check for leaks and fill them up, and You are not talking nonsense here."
"People have their will and act according to my Ming Law, what can I do with it?" Ning Huanxiang said expressionlessly.
At this time Guo Qiyun He smiled and said, "My lord, as long as we work together, what can he do to us?"
Obviously, the little official of the royal palace was not taken seriously by these feudal officials.
"There is just one thing. I wonder if His Royal Highness Prince Xiang knows what this person is doing now."
After looking at Ning Huanxiang, Fu Andong continued, "If it is convenient for the Governor, you may go to see His Highness and ask. "After all"
Hearing this, Ning Huanxiang glanced at Guo Fu and the two of them. When they saw the two people looking embarrassed, he sneered and said, "This is a matter in Gansu. It's not a matter for the two of us." I want to blame it all on me. The Holy One ordered me to come here to command the battle, not to care about you bullshit."
"How to do things is up to you to decide. Anyway, who made the mistake? , I just ask whose fault it is."
"If you two have nothing else to do, just do what you want."
The last sentence is equivalent to seeing off guests, Guo Fu and Guo Fu only They said goodbye and left knowingly.
They understood what Ning Huanxiang meant, which was to put all the responsibility on them and ask them to settle things no matter what method they used.
"Do we really want to go find His Highness Prince Xiang?" Fu Andong couldn't help but ask
If Wang Pei'an has Zhu Jinghong's support, then they must be measured in their methods, otherwise they will have to offend Zhu Jinghong. It's over.
"Of course we can't go by ourselves. It's best to choose someone from below, choose the right person to go." As he said this, Guo Qiyun was thinking about who should go.
< p>The two of them walked out in silence. After a while, Fu Andong had an idea in his mind and said, "I do have a candidate.""Who?"
"Can you still Remember, Qin Ye, the former doctor of the Ministry of Industry, is the one who was transferred to Wuwei County Yamen by you a few days ago."
Guo Qiyun nodded, of course he would remember such a special person as Qin Ye.
< p>"Yes, it is really appropriate to use this person to test His Highness Prince Xiang.""Then I will give you the order," Fu Andong said in a deep voice.
Guo Qiyun shook his head. He said, "Don't wait for two days to talk about it. This matter needs to be carefully arranged. It's best not to involve us."
"That's true."
While the two people were discussing secretly, Qin Ye and his son had received the message and were bathing and changing clothes before going to see Zhu Jinghong.
Although he was just a minor official, because of his special relationship with Zhu Jinghong, the prefect of Wuwei was waiting for him outside. /p>
While changing clothes, Qin Zhong couldn't help but ask, "Dad, can you use His Highness Prince Xiang's method to get us out of here this time?"
Compared with his original handsome appearance, Qin Zhong seems to be a different person now, looking much more stable and stable due to the vicissitudes of life.
Although they are treated politely here, the bitter cold land in the northwest cannot compare with the scenery of the Central Plains.
Qin Ye sighed and said, "Your sister has not yet given birth to a boy and a girl, and she has no foundation for a stable life in the palace. Let's not embarrass her."
"We can With the current situation, I have already benefited from your sister, so how can I be dissatisfied?"
"Yes" Qin Zhong replied, he could only give up on such thoughts.
After the two men finished cleaning up, they rushed to the place where Zhu Jinghong stayed, led by the eunuch.
Normally, they would have to meet Zhu Jinghong first, but the latter exempted them.
This actually made Qin Zhong and his son relieved. Meeting Zhu Jinghong would put them under great pressure, but not meeting him was actually not a bad thing.
So they could only wait in the side room. They waited for about two moments before Qing appeared in front of them.
"Father"
Standing at the door, looking at his biological father who had been away for a long time, Keqing was so excited that he could no longer move.
"Ke'er" Qin Ye's tone was also choked, and he saw him getting up and walking towards his daughter.
Seeing his father approaching, Keqing stepped across the threshold, knelt down and kowtowed in front of his biological father.
"An unfilial daughter meets her father"
"Get up quickly, get up" Qin Ye stepped forward to help his daughter.
Qin Zhong also came up to the side and saluted Ke Qing according to the etiquette.
After the ceremony, Ke Qing took a closer look at Qin Ye and his son, and couldn't help but shed tears when he saw their faces full of vicissitudes of life.
"Father, you have suffered." Keqing's tears kept falling.
Qin Ye sighed and said, "Thanks to you, otherwise I don't know whether my father and Zhong'er are still alive."
At this time, Qin Zhong also asked, "Sister, are you here?" After the palace, life was going smoothly."
Five days have passed in the blink of an eye since Qin Ye and his son met Ke Qing, and a lot of things happened in these two days.
First of all, local civil and military officials from Gansu, as well as officials from Sichuan and Shaanxi who were transferred from Sichuan and Shaanxi, arrived. Ning Huanxiang convened them to discuss the matter and made detailed arrangements for them to provide logistical supplies.
Secondly, local officials in Gansu also realized that Wang Pei'an wanted to cause trouble, and spontaneously joined forces to provide resistance to him.
However, Wang Pei'an is not an ordinary person. He has no concern for his own safety, honor and disgrace. He investigated and visited everywhere within two days, and he really found out a lot of things.
Finally, he sent the collected evidence of official corruption to the Gansu Patrol Censor Yamen, the Northwest Supervisory Army Censor Liang Qian, and of course the Northwest Governor Ning Huanxiang.
When the evidence is solid, the three yamen can only deal with it impartially.
The final result was that a total of two county magistrates were dismissed from their posts and awaited participation in the examination, three other chief clerks were dismissed from office and imprisoned, and sixteen scribes were imprisoned.
AndThis is only the situation in Wuwei Prefecture. Wang Pei'an has already achieved such "fruitful" results in other prefectures and counties in Gansu before he checked.
The consequence of this is that when the news spreads, all officials are in danger, which in turn disrupts the normal work of the directors.
In order to quell the rebellion, under the joint instructions of Ning Huanxiang and Liang Qian, the case was handed over to the Gansu Procuratorate.
Originally, the matter would have ended here, but Wang Pei'an was half-hearted and stationed in the Ancha Division in the name of supervisor, which really made Fu Andong extremely uncomfortable.
"Master Wang, this matter has its own responsibility, you should just do your job."
In the Chasi Yamen, Fu Andong was holding a teacup and the lid in his hand Fiddled with the tea leaves, but stared at Wang Pei'an with extremely sharp eyes.
"Your Majesty, I would like to reiterate several times that my duty is to inspect the local area under orders. Now that there are major cases disturbing the place, how can I turn a blind eye to my duty?" Wang Pei'an said with a serious expression.
Suppressing his anger, Fu Andong said in a deep voice, "Many things have their own importance. The most important thing right now is the counterinsurgency in the northwest." The purpose of redressing the grievances of the grain people is also to quell the great cause of rebellion."
After this sentence, Wang Pei'an went on to say, "The principle of moving the food and grass first before the soldiers and horses is clear. But if the grain transporters are resentful, how can they do it?" Ensure that the military rations are delivered on time."
"If your Excellency guarantees that the people will not cause trouble again, I can no longer delve into this case."
As an inspector, Fu Andong is very aware of the people below. How greedy is he, so he really can't guarantee that Minzhuang will not cause trouble.
"If your Excellency can guarantee it, I will report to the court on my own initiative and will no longer interfere with the investigation and handling of the case."
Hearing this, Fu Andong put the tea cup back on the table and snorted coldly. After making a sound, he stood up and left the lobby.
Since Wang Pei'an is so dishonest, he has no choice but to use extraordinary means, so he will discuss with Guo Qiyun next.
And Fu Andong's reactions made it easy for Wang Pei to think that this person might also be related to the corruption case.
So next, he will conduct detailed interviews and interrogations, collect evidence and continue to dig deeper.
The people have suffered so much, but local officials are still breaking their bones and sucking out their marrow. This is something Wang Pei'an cannot tolerate.
Another day passed in the blink of an eye, and Qin Ye and his son were in trouble in the Wuwei Mansion.
As scribes, they have handled a lot of accounts since they joined the job. However, they found errors after checking yesterday.
"You two, according to the wishes of Mr. Wang, you are short of thousands of stones of food, and you will be in big trouble."
In front of the Qin family father and son , it is Duan Zheng, the official of Wuwei Mansion. At this moment, he is analyzing the situation seriously.
The Qin family father and son could not figure out why a thousand stones of grain were missing from the good accounts. They counted each batch of grain before it was put into the warehouse, and only signed the document after confirming that it was correct.
"Alas, it’s not your fault actually. The warehouse for military rations and grain for subsidizing the people is in the same warehouse, with frequent incoming and outgoing transactions and dense transportation. It could get mixed up if you don’t pay attention.”
“It would be fine if our Yamen found out, but who is here today? After checking the accounts, things will go wrong." At this point, Duan Zheng pretended to sigh.
"Master Duan, you have to help us" Qin Zhong was very anxious.
< p>He should really be anxious. If he commits a crime and makes a big mistake, he is almost asking for his own death."Oh, that man named Wang doesn't even give Cha Si face, so how can I help him. "You guys," Duan Zheng sighed again.
At this time, Qin Ye couldn't help but say, "I have checked the account with my father. There is absolutely nothing wrong. Please help me, sir."
< p>"You have carefully checked that there are no mistakes or omissions," Duan Zheng changed his tone."There are no mistakes or omissions," Qin Ye said firmly.
"I will help." I can't help you, but I can show you the way," Duan Zheng said, stroking his beard.
"Please make it clear, sir." Qin Zhong spoke again.
"That Wang Pei'an is the chief historian of Prince Xiang's Mansion. "You may ask His Highness Prince Xiang for help in this matter. Just a word from him and you will be fine," Duan Zheng said calmly.
It's not that Qin Ye and his son have never thought of this method, but they really don't want to let it go. But Qing was in a dilemma, so he didn't think of taking this route.
As if he knew their concerns, Duan Zheng continued, "If something happens to you, I'm afraid your daughter will be implicated, so there's no need to delay." ”
When it comes to this, Qin Ye and his son have no choice, because their original purpose, or their only hope, is to ensure Ke Qing’s safety.
Seeing that they were still thinking, Duan Zheng continued, "If you two delay any longer, I'm afraid the matter will be irreversible."
"Zhong'er, let's go see your sister now. "
Seeing that Qin Ye and his son were about to leave, Duan Zheng immediately stopped him and said, "Don't be anxious, let's go later."
"Sir, it's not too late," Qin Ye said on his face. He said solemnly, now he is really afraid of delaying.
He was also in the officialdom. When he was in the Ministry of Works, he had seen all kinds of officials, but he had never seen such a ruthless person as Wang Pei'an.
I have never even heard of such a frank person who handles cases at the yamen in front of the Chief Secretary and the Inspector General. After the county magistrate was imprisoned by this person, Qin Ye really couldn't calm down.
"Tonight, Chief Secretary Guo will host a banquet for His Highness Prince Xiang at Lanyue Tower. At that time, all the high-ranking civil and military officials in Gansu will attend. I am here, I am honored to be invited tonight."
"You must also know that the entire Gansu Province has long been filled with complaints about Mr. Wang's frivolous behavior."
Leave When Qin Ye approached, Duan Zheng patted his shoulder, said with a warm face and a smile, "You come with me tonight. When you explain the reason, I will definitely contact all my colleagues to support you. Then His Highness Prince Xiang only needs to Just go with the flow and your troubles will be over.Go"
Although he always felt that things were unusual, Qin Ye couldn't say what was wrong, so he could only nod in agreement.
After Qin Ye and his son retired, Duan Zheng The smile on his face disappeared, and he was under great pressure to tell Qin Ye this.
Through Qin Ye's incident, Zhu Jinghong made his attitude public. If such an inside story were to be spread. If he opened it, Duan Zheng might be beaten to death on the spot.
However, he had to accept this job. Who made Wang Pei'an's next target be him, the official of Wuwei Mansion? p>
I hope that tonight, King Xiang will be willing to protect the Qin family and his son, so that I can gain life. Duan Zheng thought in his heart. Please remember to collect it.
