Chapter 1570 Collaborating with the enemy and treason
Yingling.
Baskets of sand and gravel were dumped and immediately washed away by the flood.
Cheng Chucun and Li Chongxuan felt that this was not the solution, so they began to gather hemp ropes and sacks.
After the huge nets were compiled, they immediately began to nail eight-foot-long wooden stakes in the river. Then people hung all the hemp rope nets on the wooden stakes, and then threw the sacks filled with rocks and soil into the drinking water one by one.
Without the restraint of the net, the sacks were not washed away, and everyone was confident when they saw it. After bags of rocks and soil were thrown in, it immediately had an effect.
Qin Changqing arrived at the Yingling County Government Office and saw an extremely angry Li Yinhuan and a decadent Kong Liren.
"Thank you for your hard work." Qin Changqing took Li Yinhuan's hand and felt very distressed when he saw that her clothes were not yet dry and she was covered in mud and water.
"I'm fine, I'm used to it, but he..."
"Take Kong Liren and let's go to Guancang!"
When the group of people arrived at the official warehouse, Kong Liren's face instantly turned pale, and his whole body seemed to have been drained of all its strength, as if he had no bones.
The Yushitai sent an official named Lu Junchen, a younger brother of Lu Junyi, to supervise and follow Qin Changqing to gain experience.
To be honest, Lu Junchen looked down upon Qin Changqing and always felt that Qin Changqing was just lucky and favored by the emperor. This time around Qingzhou, Lu Junchen suddenly looked at Qin Changqing in a different light.
"Kong Liren, open the official warehouse!" Qin Changqing looked at Kong Liren with sideways eyes.
"Xiaguan...Xiaguan forgot to bring the key!"
Zheng!
Li Yinhuan drew the Emperor's Sword and cut off the door lock with one blow.
Kong Liren didn't know where he got the strength, so he blocked the door alone.
You definitely can't look at it. There is no food at all in the official warehouse in Yingling.
Five hundred walking sticks?
Lu Junchen's eyes lit up, and even a fool could see that there was something fishy in this.
He is also a son of a wealthy family, so he naturally knows this group of people very well. Someone must be reselling food. Things like guarding and stealing are under the control of Lu Junchen, and he will be sure to impeach them.
"Master Kong..." Lu Junchen looked at Kong Liren with a smile, "I remember, you are a direct descendant of the Kong family, right?"
"Master Qin, we are all members of the Kong family. Mr. Lu, our Kong family has been kind to you in the past. If you two adults let me go, I will repay you in the future."
"At this point, are you still taking chances?"
Lu Junchen stepped forward and patted Kong Liren on the shoulder, "Don't say you are a direct descendant of the Kong family. Even if you are a relative of the emperor, you will not be able to avoid the pain of flesh and blood in the future... If you are handed over to Feiqi, I am afraid you will regret coming here.
World."
"I'm just reselling food, what does it have to do with Feiqi?"
Kong Liren was at a loss for a moment. If Fei Qi really investigated... he would definitely die!
Compared to Feiqi, the Marquis of Qin in front of him was simply the living Bodhisattva of the Tang Dynasty.
"Master Hou, I will report it, I will be a tainted witness!"
Kong Liren knelt on the ground with a thud, "It's Concubine Yang's nephew Yang Saifei and Concubine Wei's nephew Wei Minghao. They are the masterminds. They sold all the food to Youzhou Mansion."
"Not only Qingzhou Prefecture, but all the official warehouses in the entire Hedong Road, there is not even one out of ten!"
"What?" Lu Junchen grabbed Kong Liren's collar, "What did you say? Not even one out of ten official warehouses in Hedong Road remains?"
A large amount of cold sweat broke out on Lu Junchen's forehead. The entire Hedong Road and the food in the official warehouse, which cost at least tens of millions of dan, were all gone?
"The granary of the entire Hedong Road?" Qin Changqing looked at Kong Liren coldly, "Youzhou only has a larger population. The food in one state is enough, and the food in one area...Kong Liren, I will give you another chance, who is the buyer?"
"I heard it's the Yuan family and the Sima family...but I don't know who they are specifically." Kong Liren scratched his head vigorously, "By the way, Sima Liang and Yuan Hongwen are in the Wanhua Building in the east of the city."
"I'll get someone!"
Li Yinhuan summoned a group of soldiers and rode towards Wanhua Tower, where he easily captured Yuan Hongwen and Sima Liang.
Li Yinhuan sent him directly to the Feiqi Division in Qingzhou Prefecture.
After detailed interrogation, Sima Liang and Yuan Hongwen only had half their lives left.
The confession is also very simple: collaboration with the enemy and the country.
The Sima family and the Yuan family have always had maritime trade. Their trade route is very simple, that is, Hokkaido and Kushuobu (Sakhalin Island).
Qin Changqing wouldn't say anything if he sold grain to the Treasury Department. It was just a normal maritime trade. With the small population of the Treasury Department, it wouldn't cause any trouble, but selling it to Fusang wouldn't work.
What are you doing hoarding food in your childhood? It must be to attack the Tang Dynasty. Now Li Chengqian and Li Yuan occupy Jiuzhou County and Tsushima County, blocking the sea areas of Goguryeo and Fuso. They can only take a detour and trade along the Kusuobu.
Qin Changqing decided not to participate in this matter and left this problem to Li Shimin.
The Sima family is the descendant of the two Jin Dynasties, and the Yuan family is the descendant of Yuan Shao. If these two hostile families come together, what else can they do besides subverting the imperial court?
Chang Le also arrived in Qingzhou. Looking at the official documents on his desk, he was furious.
There were many people involved in this, including wealthy families and relatives of the emperor. Chang Le gritted his teeth so hard that he didn't know what to do for a while.
The most disgusting thing is that there seems to be a prince involved in this. Is that prince also going to be beheaded?
Chang Le pondered for a night, and finally had Sima Liang and Yuan Hongwen beaten to death. At the same time, the Yuan family and Sima family in Youzhou became completely lively.
Chang Le did not stop and returned to Beijing with the memorial in person.
Li Shimin looked at the report presented by Chang Le and kicked the Long case over.
Some servants ran in from outside, but they were all persuaded to retreat by Chang Le. Chang Le then closed the door of Zichen Palace and followed Li Shimin to the back hall.
Du Zhenglun and his son also left the Zichen Hall in a wise manner. Li Zhi, who was sitting there, thought for a moment and then also exited the Zichen Hall.
"Someone died?"
"I dare not deceive Your Majesty. It was my slave who ordered me to be killed with a stick." Chang Le bowed to Li Shimin, "Youzhou has sent Feiqi and Baiqi, and everything is still under control."
"It's right to kill them, but...it's too early."
Li Shimin sighed, "I know that you are protecting my face, and I also know that the Xuanwu Gate thing..."
Li Shimin sat on the steps and patted the threshold next to him. Chang Le also sat on the ground leaning against the threshold.
"Le'er, but you have to know that they are collaborating with the enemy and treason. They colluded with Fusang..."
"Your Majesty, sometimes I can't understand what justice is, but I don't want your Majesty to be sad because of the past, and I don't want your hands to be stained with blood. So I took it upon myself to kill the two of them. Now there are more than a thousand people involved in the case. If the investigation continues,
, the Sima family and the Yuan family alone may have tens of thousands of heads killed. If the Sima family and the Yuan family are in Songkou... Your Majesty, how should you deal with the prince?"
"Secret King Li Yuanxiao, what are you doing now?" Li Shimin suddenly asked.
"It seems like you are traveling around the world, but all the people you make friends with are contemporary celebrities." Chang Le replied, "In addition, His Highness King Mi is so rich that it's a bit scary to be rich."
"Le'er, this case is over for the time being. You continue the secret investigation. You hand over the evidence of the secret king's corruption and expropriation to Lu Junyi and ask Lu Junyi to impeach him. If the secret king stops here, the case will go to the Yuan family and the Sima family.
Until then. You personally accuse the Yuan family and the Sima family and kill a group of people. If the secret king continues..."
