"This is the famous Ji Yaohua, right? She is as beautiful as a fairy!" Looking at the demure and gentle Ji Yaohua in a dress behind Yang Qingyuan, An Shigeng suppressed the heat in his heart and pretended
He asked not recognizing him.
"I don't dare to be a member of An's family! The little girl is frightened!" Ji Yaohua said after giving a slight salute to An Shigeng.
Yang Qingyuan simply stopped talking and watched two people who obviously knew each other and pretended not to know each other were showing off their acting skills.
After the two of them finished their performance, Yang Qingyuan said, "Exceptor An, besides coming to congratulate me on my birthday, I also have something to ask about. Please move on, Officer An!"
These words made An Shigeng's originally smiling eyes narrow. Sure enough, Yang Qingyuan came with bad intentions.
Kong Qinli, who was angry at the side, heard Yang Qingyuan's words and suppressed the anger in his heart.
"I don't know what kind of official business it is, but it requires you, nephew Qingyuan, to come to the door in person?"
Yang Qingyuan saluted Kong Qinli again, "Some trivial matters are not worthy of Mr. Kong's attention. Mr. Kong has already put a lot of effort into managing the talented people in the Imperial Academy. How can Qingyuan bother you with such a trivial matter."
No matter how hard Kong Qinli tried to make things difficult for Yang Qingyuan, he could not find any flaws in Yang Qingyuan's etiquette.
But when Yang Qingyuan's words were translated, they were not so polite.
What this means is that you are a fake academician, so don't be jabbering, just take care of your Imperial College, and don't interfere in the government affairs of the court.
Kong Qinli's complexion turned darker and darker, but he did not dare to forcefully interfere in Yang Qingyuan's government affairs. He was not happy with him today, and Yang Qingyuan was still in the Emperor's heart. It would be bad if Yang Qingyuan's memorial interfered with his own affairs.
He could only helplessly shake his head towards An Shigeng, indicating that he was helpless.
"Then please invite Mr. Yang and Mr. Ji to follow me to the private room to discuss in detail."
An Shigeng brought Yang Qingyuan and Ji Yaohua to a quiet room.
"I wonder what Master Yang's instructions are?!"
Yang Qingyuan poured himself a cup of tea.
"Yesterday, there was a fire in the granary in Gyeonggi Province. I wonder if anyone outside An Yuan heard about it?"
The expression on An Shigeng's face remained unchanged, "An Mou has also heard people talk about this matter! The burning of the warehouse by the fire dragon is really a huge loss for the imperial court!"
"An Yuanwai is really well-informed! Even most of the court officials don't know about this matter?! I didn't expect An Yuanwai to know about it first!"
In order to avoid causing turmoil, the imperial court tried its best to block the news about the fire in the granary. Except for Yu Daxue, Li Daxue, who was the center of the cabinet, and Master Sun, the Minister of Household Affairs, only the investigators involved in the matter knew about it.
An Shigeng's answer also showed that he was involved in the case. If he had nothing to do with the case, he would not know about it. However, this is only supporting evidence and cannot be used as direct evidence.
"I am here for this matter as well."
An Shigeng did not speak, but quietly waited for Yang Qingyuan's next words.
"My officer found out that the official grain in the granaries was stolen. The four burned warehouses were just empty warehouses. Most of the official grain had been transported away by merchant ships before the fire broke out."
"Oh!? This is happening!" An Shigeng looked shocked, with very rich facial expressions. Although the acting looked very similar, it was a little exaggerated, "Then I don't know how An can help the court.
An must be willing to help!"
"That hasn't happened yet."
"Then what's the purpose of Master Yang's visit?!"
Yang Qingyuan stared at An Shigeng with a smile, "Someone reported that An was involved in the theft and sale of grain in the warehouse, and I came here to investigate."
After Yang Qingyuan finished speaking, the aura in the private room dropped to freezing point.
An Shigeng raised his head slightly and looked at Ji Yaohua behind Yang Qingyuan. Ji Yaohua seemed to understand, and a bright light suddenly appeared on her fingertips.
An Shigeng then shook his head, "Master Yang, you have wronged An!"
Ji Yaohua also took advantage of the situation and took back the silver needle on her fingertips.
"Although An is a businessman, he usually abides by the law and is loyal to Zhou. He does not dare to violate the law at all. Mr. Yang suddenly slaps such a big label on An. How dare An accept it?
!”
An Shigeng had an expression of inexplicable injustice, which was almost written all over his face.
"Is it true that there is a villain who is falsely accusing An An? But this person reported it with his real name! According to the laws of this dynasty, the person who falsely accuses will sit down, so this person will not be joking with his own life!"
Yang Qingyuan drank tea with a calm expression on his face.
"Although An Yuanwai's tea is not bad, it is still inferior to the tribute tea given by the Holy One!"
Looking at Yang Qingyuan who was pretending to taste tea, An Shigeng was a little unsure about Yang Qingyuan's purpose, especially since the people who lived in the warehouse of the water transport terminal were arrested. Although they didn't know the inside story, Yang Qingyuan's ability had already been revealed to Li Bai.
The two cases have revealed something extraordinary for the first time, so there is no reason to be careless and careless.
"By the way! Except An, you have a warehouse at the water transport terminal that is temporarily used to store food!"
An Shigeng was nervous when he heard Yang Qingyuan mention the granary at the dock. Could it be that Yang Qingyuan had discovered some clues, but An Shigeng was sure that the official grain had no connection with this warehouse.
On the surface, he is as stable as an old dog, but on the inside, he is full of doubts. He has no idea what Yang Qingyuan means when he mentions the warehouse.
"Yes! That's the warehouse where our Anping Grain Company temporarily stores the grain shipped to Shendu."
"I wonder how much food is stored in here!?"
As soon as Yang Qingyuan said these words, An Shigeng became even more confused. Yang Qingyuan had obviously sealed the warehouse. He could tell how much grain was stored in it by looking at the account book. Why did he need to ask himself?!
"It should be tens of thousands of stones! I am not responsible for this specific business, and I don't know it very well!" Unable to guess Yang Qingyuan's purpose, An Shigeng could only be vague.
"That's right! The whistleblower said that all official rations are hidden in the warehouse of Anjia Water Transport Terminal and will be shipped out of Beijing in the near future!" Yang Qingyuan put down the tea cup in his hand, "Want to think carefully about it, An?
, how much food is there in the warehouse at this dock!?"
Looking at Yang Qingyuan's half-smiling eyes, An Shigeng seemed to understand Yang Qingyuan's intention.
"According to Mr. Yang, how much food should be in the dock warehouse to be considered normal?"
Yang Qingyuan smiled slightly. He was worthy of being a businessman who has been doing business for many years. As expected, he was very clear about it. He pretended to be displeased and said, "How can I know how much grain is in it? But based on my long-term experience in solving cases! How can a temporary storage warehouse possibly have this?
Too much food?! What does An Yuanwai think?"
At this time, not only An Shigeng, but also Ji Yaohua, who was standing behind Yang Qingyuan, complained in her heart. Yang Qingyuan's word "long-term" has only been more than a month since Yang Qingyuan took office as the Prime Minister of Dali Temple. Where does the word "long-term" come from.
But complaints are complaints, and An Shigeng immediately understood what Yang Qingyuan meant.
