Wuli year forty years.

More than ten years after the Southern Yan and Northern Qi invaded the Dawu Dynasty, Northern Liang ushered in the most severe drought in history.

For two years, the rain did not wet the crops, and the fertile fields turned yellow.

Birds die from the heat, and fish in ponds dry up their mud.

The people cultivated without harvest, which also caused many people in Beiliang to starve to death. At that time, the governors of all counties in Beiliang jointly submitted a letter to the court, hoping that Li Deyi could relieve the victims, allocate part of the disaster money, buy food, and rescue the victims in

Water and fire. But at this time, the imperial court did not give a reply for a long time. Even half a month passed, and the people of Beiliang did not wait for the imperial court to provide disaster relief.

In desperation, the governors from various places in Northern Liang spent their wealth to buy grain from various places and distribute it to the people, but this was never a long-term solution.

So much so that in just the past two months, county guards in various places were unable to purchase food and could only watch the people die one after another before their eyes.

The county governors from various places finally understood the inaction of the imperial court, and unwilling to do so, they all chose to die to learn the lesson. But in the end, the memorials uploaded to Kyoto just disappeared into the sea and never returned.

Because of this incident, Beiliang lost ten county guards. If Chu Mo hadn't used the power behind him in the end and spent all the wealth of the Beiliang Palace to buy food and grass from regional states and counties, Beiliang would have been reduced to a place long ago.

wasteland.

Thinking of these things a few years ago, Chu Mo could not help but feel angry. When he first came to Kyoto, Chu Mo asked Wushuang to investigate the matter. After learning that Li Deyi had indeed ordered the commander

After Nong Si allocated relief funds and food to Beiliang, Chu Mo suddenly realized that, coupled with the exposure of Shen Shen Miao's case this time, it seemed that the money and food used for disaster relief had been pocketed by some people.

And this person is 90% Li Qian!

Therefore, Chu Mo must investigate this matter clearly. He must seek justice for the people who died in Beiliang and the ten county guards!

Looking at Chu Mo's gloomy face, Yu Zixuan also understood what Chu Mo was thinking. When he thought of the severe drought in Beiliang a few years ago, he couldn't help but feel filled with anger.

I only heard Yu Zixuan say in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry. If this matter is really related to Li Qian, we will definitely seek an explanation for the dead people! If Li Deyi still wants to take the royal family's face into consideration, the worst is possible. I, Beiliang, will

Rebel against his Dawu Dynasty!"

…

The next morning.

When Chu Mo woke up and found that Wen Qingyuan was not around again, he couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile on his face.

Walking out of the room and coming to the main hall, Yu Zixuan has been waiting here for a long time.

Seeing Chu Mo's arrival, Yu Zixuan also quickly stepped forward to report: "Your Majesty, there is news from Wushuang. Shen Shenmiao, the former magistrate of Cangzhou, was transferred to Kyoto seven years ago as the Minister of Works because of Li Qian.

The Shen family also moved to Kyoto seven years ago. In the past few years, the Shen family did not have much contact with people in their hometown in Cangzhou. However, according to the information investigated by Fengyue Pavilion, it seems that Shen Shen Miao and his son

Frequently interacted with a singer from Piaoxianglou..."

When Chu Mo heard this, he was stunned. He thought to himself that these two fathers and sons are quite good at playing. The two fathers and sons have a close relationship with the same singer. This...

Ahem, I’m thinking too much.

Chu Mo shook his head, came back to his senses, and said calmly: "Go on."

"But according to the investigation, everyone in Kyoto who is closely related to the Shen family has had someone come to look for them in the past few days, including not only Li Qian's people, but also Li Tianqi's people."

Chu Mo nodded and said: "It seems that they also understand in their hearts that although the fire burned down the Shen family, Shen Shen Miao should keep something as important as the roster very closely. Such an important thing, Shen Shen Miao Miao should not leave it at home."

"It seems that we need to move quickly, and we must dare to find the location of this register before the two of them."

"Also, the fire in Shen Mansion was obviously man-made. In addition to looking for the roster, you asked Wushuang to inform the people in Fengyue Pavilion and let them investigate the arson incident."

"yes!"

Yu Zixuan responded and was about to turn around and leave, but Chu Mo called him down.

"Get ready. Prince Jian will go to Piaoxiang Tower tonight."

Hearing this, Yu Zixuan had an ugly look on his face. He turned around and looked at Chu Mo and asked cautiously: "Go to Piaoxiang Tower? Young Master, if Madam knows..."

Chu Mo waved his hand and said: "My prince is just going to investigate some things, not to look for flowers. You don't have to worry about my wife. I will explain it to her personally."

"What do you have to explain to me?"

As soon as Chu Mo finished speaking, Wen Qingyuan's voice came from outside. After a while, Wen Qingyuan appeared in front of them accompanied by two maids.

A smile appeared on Chu Mo's face. Looking at the large and small brocade boxes in Wen Qingyuan's hands, he knew that this girl had gotten up so early, so she must have gone shopping for calligraphy and paintings at auspicious times.

"It's like this. Didn't His Majesty leave the investigation of Shen Shen Miao to me? We just happened to get a clue related to Piaoxiang Tower, so I plan to take Zixuan to Piaoxiang Tower to investigate tonight. Isn't this I’m afraid you might misunderstand, so I’ll explain it to you.”

Chu Mo said with a smile.

After hearing Chu Mo's words, Wen Qingyuan didn't ask any more questions. After getting along with each other for the past few days, Wen Qingyuan knew that Chu Mo was not the kind of person who liked to go to romantic places to look for flowers and willows. She still trusted Chu Mo very much and clicked immediately. nodded.

"Go, but I'm warning you, if you let me know what you've done inside to feel sorry for me, be careful with me..."

As he spoke, Wen Qingyuan stretched out his fingers to make a scissors gesture, and stared at Chu Mo's lower body. This look made Chu Mo's scalp numb.

"Madam, don't worry, even if you give me ten courages, I won't dare!"

Chu Mo said with a wry smile.

"Huh, that's best. Okay, I won't disturb your conversation, Xiaozhu, Xiaoying, let's go."

After saying that, Wen Qingyuan turned around and left with the two maids.

Chu Mo looked at Wen Qingyuan's back with a smile on his face, but Yu Zixuan on the side looked incredulous.

Chu Mo said with a smile: "Okay, let's go get ready first and then go out with me later. The preparations over there in the East are almost complete. It's still necessary to go and take a look."

"yes!"

…

In the bustling streets of Kyoto, in this place where every inch of land is precious, a bookshop quietly stands among the trees.

The bookstore opened for business early this morning, and the owner behind it was Dongfang Yu, who was known as the number one talent in Kyoto. With the opening of the bookstore, the place was crowded with many beautiful talents in Kyoto early in the morning.

The purpose of the gathering of talented people is to discuss literary knowledge with Dongfang Yu, and the gathering of beautiful women naturally comes with the feeling of admiration.

At this moment, the book shop was completely surrounded. In the teahouse box opposite the book shop, Chu Mo couldn't help but smile as he looked at the scene...
