Chapter eight hundred and seventeen
Chapter 817
The King of Wei was angry and hated the Yang family. They dared to collude with the enemy and treason, and did such a thing that harmed their reputation under their own name.
After the King of Wei reported Yang Shangzhi, he also took out a lot of evidence that Yang Shangzhi had plundered the people's fat and ointment and reported it to Emperor Wu'an.
He also proposed to go to Yunzhou to capture Yang Shangzhi in person.
Just when Emperor Wu'an was hesitating whether to send him to capture Yang Shangzhi, Xiao Lintian's memorial was sent back.
Emperor Wu'an was furious when he saw that Yang Shangzhi's family actually sold weapons and food and herbs to Dongqi.
At this time, Zhao Zhenzhen's father Zhao Hui took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and told Emperor Wu'an.
"Emperor, Yang Shangzhi and General Xia are both confidants of the King of Wei! Didn't the mine find out that the King of Wei was making weapons privately in the mine last time?"
"A large part of these weapons are missing. It turned out that Yang Shangzhi and General Xia were smuggled out and sold to Dongqi!"
"Although the four countries are truce now, war will begin at any time. Food, medicinal materials and weapons are essential for war. What's the difference between selling it to Dongqi and handing over the Xiqi to Dongqi!"
"Your Majesty, how can these weapons be transported to the border smoothly? How many officials who are favoritism and abuse of power have been involved in it must be investigated and punished..."
Emperor Wu'an's face turned dark when he heard this. He understood what Zhao Hui said. He just didn't expect that King Wei would dare to do such a thing!
The western Qin Dynasty's Jiangshan was surnamed Xiao, and the King of Wei also had a surname of Xiao. In order to collect money, he actually put the Xiao family's Jiangshan under the mast.
Emperor Wu'an carefully read the evidence presented by Xiao Lintian. Although the King of Wei reported Yang Shangzhi first, he swore that he knew nothing about the Yang family and General Xia did.
But if you don’t know about food and medicinal materials, what about the weapons?
The weapons were transported out of the mines, and the King of Wei's explanation seemed pale and powerless to Emperor Wu'an.
Seeing the private messages from Prefect Yang and Emperor Yannan of Dongqi, Emperor Wu'an had the intention to kill the King of Wei.
Prefect Yang and General Xia imprisoned Ling Xiang, the general stationed on the border of the court, and ordered officials torture the court. How dare they do this bold move without the support of the King of Wei!
There are also the crimes of Vice Commander Wu. There are such generals who collude with the enemy and treason on the border. In the war, wouldn’t they be able to hand over the towns of Western Qin to others?
When Xiao Lintian's second memorial was delivered, Emperor Wu'an felt a little disappointed.
Four of the eight national treasury granaries guarded by General Xia were empty.
The court sent inspection commissioners to inspect granaries in various places every year, and the granaries guarded by General Xia looked like eight granaries were full of.
However, the memorial sent by Xiao Lintian said that there were tricks in the eight granaries. The top was the grain, and the bottom was filled with sacks and sand cushions.
When the two armies are fighting, food and grass will come first. Without food, they will fight a bad battle!
"Bertilizer...Bertilizer!"
Emperor Wu'an was furious. In the past two years, in order to allow the people to rest, he wanted to repair the palace, but he was reluctant to leave the palace for summer vacations, so he used this silver to fill the granaries everywhere.
Unexpectedly, he saved money and helped Yang Shangzhi, King Wei and others to get their own pockets.
The specialist who inspected General Xia’s garrison was filed, and after checking that the specialist was still the nephew of Queen Wei’s family.
The memorials delivered by Prince Cheng are accompanied by various cargo slips delivered to Weizhou by the King of Wei in recent years.
There are no weapons in these bottom lists, but the amount of food, grass and medicinal materials is huge.
Prince Cheng also arrested several officials who were inspecting checkpoints in various places and received their confessions.
The weapons were transported out in cargo. These officials accepted bribes from the Yang family, and the inspection was just a formality...
