"No matter how resourceful you are, the truth of the matter can never be concealed, because what is false is false. No matter how much you try to cover it up, it is still false and can never be true!"
"After the people of Qingzhou Prefecture were stabilized, I began to investigate the truth of the matter with heavy doubts. The first is why General Chang transported food to the city when he knew the Jinlong Emperor's order and received my order.
Go outside the city!"
"In fact, General Chang's original intention is to thin the outer layer of grain that wraps the treasury. As soon as the time comes, the grain outside will be almost used, and then the shortage of treasury will be self-defeating, I said.
Not bad, right?"
Chang Yunfeng stood up in shame: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. This is an act of debasement. There is nothing we can do about it. Governor Gu has repeatedly told us that there is no one we can trust in Qingzhou Prefecture. Even the new Imperial Envoy, because your reputation is not good,
I don’t know what your character is like, whether you will accept bribes from Governor Tong and work with him to cover up the truth about Qingzhou Mansion. I can only listen to Governor Gu’s last words and guide you to the treasury little by little. If you really are
A good official who serves the people will naturally investigate further! It’s just”
"I just didn't expect that before the truth about the food in the treasury was revealed, I would first investigate your transportation of food out of the city, right?"
"Exactly, please forgive me for this humble and helpless act!"
"What's the crime? If I hadn't gotten your letter in advance, I wouldn't have gotten the accounts left by Gu and the three governors, and the truth about Qingzhou Mansion wouldn't have been revealed to the world! Sit down first!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"I obtained the accounts and letters left by Governor Gu and all the previous speculations, and I understood all the truth. In addition, I was curious and recognized Gu Qingquan, Mr. Gu, who was hiding in the Yunlai Inn. I recognized my sweaty BMW at a glance.
It is not surprising that the eldest son of Governor Gu, who came from Huizhou in the northwest, could recognize the bloody BMW!"
"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, Gu Qingquan, the son of the guilty minister, also has some letters left by his father and wants to submit them to you, the Imperial Envoy!"
Liu Mingzhi was stunned and sighed helplessly: "You are really wary!"
"My lord, please forgive me. Various false scenes are staged in Qingzhou Mansion every day. The common people are really scared."
"Send it over!"
"yes!"
Looking through the letter carefully, Liu Mingzhi, who had been frowning, breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the grain shipped out of Shengzhou, Pizhou and Qingzhou did not really go to Northern Xinjiang, but was stolen and hidden.
With 600,000 shi of grain, Qingzhou Prefecture's difficulties were much lessened, and the prepared locust powder was enough to sustain the winter wheat harvest.
It’s just that Liu Mingzhi also has no idea. Can winter wheat really achieve the same harvest as later generations? This is the original wheat seed, which has not undergone various scientific genetic improvements!
However, at this point, we can only take one step at a time!
Putting the letter on the table, Liu Mingzhi looked at Ning Zihan, who was holding his daughter's hands tightly: "Ning Governor, I want to tell the truth. Is the food in Gongzhou's treasury shipped to Northern Xinjiang or was it stolen by you?
Hidden?"
Ning Zihan looked at Liu Mingzhi in surprise: "Sir, do you know everything?"
"Really hiding it?"
"Yes, the official mixed the grain with rice bran and loess and hid it in a dilapidated house in Gongzhou City!"
"How much is left?"
"The various grains mixed together cost about 160,000 shi!"
Liu Mingzhi calmed down and walked to a chair, sat down and meditated for a while, taking the gavel in his hand and slapping it hard.
"The locust plague in Qingzhou was devastating. The people had no harvest and had nothing to eat for more than two months. Officials from top to bottom in Qingzhou were negligent and slack, which led to the growing locust plague and the tragic deaths of 30,000 people. The evil deeds of this move are too numerous to describe. One official in Qingzhou
You did not repent and provide timely relief, but instead deceived the superiors and deceived the inferiors, adding evil to the evil. Our emperor is wise and the sky has eyes, so that your crimes will be exposed to the world and the people will get justice for your death!"
"Someone is coming!"
"exist!"
"Qingzhou Governor Tong Hewu was dismissed from his post to investigate and immediately put him in prison. After the incident in Qingzhou was completed, he was escorted back to Beijing and handed over to the Three Laws Division for trial."
"Ren Yuan, the governor of Chrome Prefecture, Cai Qingsheng, the governor of Anzhou, Cai Qingsheng, the governor of Luzhou, and the crimes committed by the governor of Gengzhou are too numerous to describe. All the people under them who are related to the case of deficient treasury will be executed tomorrow at 3:00 noon. Their property will be confiscated and transferred to the treasury. Their families will not know about it.
The family members should be given a lighter sentence and return to good citizens!"
"The three governors of Qingzhou, Pizhou, and Shengzhou secretly opened warehouses to stockpile grain. However, they lost their way and found their way back, so that the grain in the treasury was not lost. After they were executed, their families were given a lighter sentence."
"Ning Zihan, the governor of Gongzhou, secretly opened a warehouse to release grain and was dismissed from his post for investigation and investigation. He believed that he had done a good job in controlling the locust plague and protected the people under his rule from disaster. He temporarily took over the post of governor of Gongzhou and waited for the documents from the capital to be processed!"
"Qingzhou Prefecture has eight states and twenty-three counties under its jurisdiction, with a total of more than 263,000 people. None of the county magistrates have participated in the case of the state government's treasury deficit and are waiting for the official commendation documents!"
"Qiao Changjing, the magistrate of Qingshan County, has made great contributions in controlling the locust plague, but the 13,000 people under his jurisdiction have suffered less than a handful of disasters. He has made great contributions, but opening a warehouse to release grain without permission is a serious crime. He has been dismissed from his post pending trial and is temporarily serving as the governor of Qingshan.
, waiting for the official department to process the documents!"
"Qingzhou garrison general Chang Yunfeng has temporarily taken over the post of admiral general of Qingzhou Prefecture. Do not neglect your duties and cause Qingzhou to suffer again. Wait for the official documents!"
"Your actions are all final." He sighed softly, dropped the command arrow in his hand, and closed his eyes without saying anything!
"Sir, please spare my life!"
""
"Thank you, sir!"
"Thank you, sir!"
"Captain of Dingzhou, how about a brief introduction from behind?"
Ge Changjun nodded blankly, looking at Liu Mingzhi, he couldn't help but sweat broke out on his forehead. Liu Mingzhi was too decisive in his killing. The four Xiazhou governors and their subordinate officials decided to kill him like this? This is
A fourth-grade official!: "Of course!"
"Looking back at the lobby that was crowded just now and now empty, Ge Changjun breathed a sigh of relief. After killing so many people at once, what should the officials of Qingzhou Prefecture do?"
"Master Ge, please sit down!"
"Thank you, Lord Qincha!"
"Master Ge, don't be cautious. You are thinking about what to do with the officials in Qingzhou Prefecture, right? After all, officials from the eight states have killed so many!"
Ge Changjun nodded cautiously and no longer dared to look down upon this twenty-year-old imperial envoy. His eyes were too powerful: "Imperial envoy has a sharp eye!"
"There are only over 200,000 people in the 23 counties of the eight states under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou Prefecture. It is not a good thing if the branches are too scattered."
"What your Excellency said is true, but Qingzhou is located in a remote area. It is not as good as the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, nor as the land of heaven and earth in Shu. It is inevitable that the people will be sparsely populated!"
"The officials of the eight states and the two hundred thousand people are really overqualified and underutilized. I plan to merge the eight states of Qingzhou Prefecture into four states. This will save space and eliminate a lot of unnecessary trouble. I am already on the way to submit a letter to your majesty."
"In that case, I don't know why your Excellency came to this official?"
"Borrow food!"
"Sir, the 200,000 people and hundreds of thousands of shi of food in Qingzhou Prefecture are enough for us. There is no surplus food in Dingzhou."
"Yes, they won't be able to finish it even if they die, but 70% belongs to the treasury. Winter taxes are coming soon. Think about how much food is left."
"Didn't Your Majesty exempt Qingzhou Prefecture from taxes?"
"But Governor Tong changed his mind with just one memorial. It is not a pity for such a person to die."
"Alas, five years of grain storage turned out to be..."
