Chu Xingyuan walked into the governor's yamen quickly, and there were officials kneeling crookedly in the courtyard, although the governor of Xining was a second-grade official, but Chu Xingyuan was now a Qincha, which was equivalent to the emperor's personal visit, so they all knelt on the ground to take over.

"Ye Zhihuan, the governor of Xining, and the officials of various ministries of Xining Province will see Lord Qincha!"

Chu Xingyuan stood in the courtyard and waved his hand at everyone, "Get up!"

Ye Zhihuan saw that this Qin Cha did not directly blame, and his attitude was not bad, so he quickly got up and walked quickly to Chu Xingyuan's side, and personally led Chu Xingyuan into the main hall behind the lobby.

"Ye Futai, the emperor is here, so I won't be polite with you. ”

Ye Zhihuan hurriedly clenched his fists, "Lord Qincha is polite, you are a nobleman, being able to come to this small place in Xining is a blessing for Xining, it's not early, can the officials order someone to prepare lunch?"

Chu Xingyuan shook his head slightly, "It's good to prepare lunch for the soldiers of the forbidden army, the official must pay for it simply, the official needs to freshen up and recuperate, and then talk about business, in addition, the officials of Xining Province don't seem to have arrived, you can inform me, come and meet me in the evening!"

Of course, Ye Zhihuan was full of words, Lord Qincha wanted to take a rest and recuperate, and then have a good meal in the evening, and his eyes suddenly became clear in his heart, it seems that although this Lord Qincha is sanctimonious, he is also like himself, and likes beauty.

"What Lord Qincha said is that the lower official will arrange the courtyard where you rest. ”

Seeing that Chu Xingyuan did not say the purpose of coming to Xining this time, the initial worry in Ye Zhihuan's heart was swept away, and now he is no longer afraid at all.

If you really want to govern Xining or verify the disaster relief funds, you must be reprimanded vigorously, and if you can accept your own arrangement in this way, there should be no problem, and no matter how big the problem is, you can solve it with silver.

Ye Zhihuan turned around, quickly ordered someone to prepare a meal for the forbidden army's team, and personally sent Chu Xingyuan to a courtyard that looked like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, with three steps and one view pavilion designed quite cleverly.

Chu Xingyuan nodded, just let Ye Zhihuan go back, and he took Yulou and Liu Yong, the commander of the forbidden army, to rest.

Ye Zhihuan left the housekeeper to take care of Chu Xingyuan's bathing matters, and he turned around and left quickly, and immediately went to order the officials to summon the various prefects under the jurisdiction of Xining quickly, and be sure to rush to the governor's yamen before dinner.

When Chu Xingyuan entered the room, Yulou couldn't hold it back, and he didn't avoid Commander Liu, and pouted: "Why does the master still eat his food!

Although Commander Liu didn't speak, he looked up at Chu Xingyuan, the meaning was obvious but the same as Yulou's thoughts, "You just wait, I said everything is simple, after all, it's noon, even if you want to make a show, he will arrange it relatively simply."

The corruption case of disaster relief funds involves a large number of people, and we are so tired of catching them one by one, so we have gathered together so that we can catch them all without leaking the news, do you have a better plan?"

Yulou's eyes lit up instantly, "The master is wise, Yulou admires!"

Commander Liu also clenched his fists, and his tiger eyes flashed with admiration, "The last general misunderstood the adult, please atone for your sins, I didn't expect the adult to be full of strategy, so the method of saving effort is very good." ”

Chu Xingyuan nodded, "You all go down to eat something, rest for the time being, listen to my orders at night, the governor's yamen is closed before and after, no one is allowed to escape, the officials here are detained, and there are two other provinces, don't startle the snake." ”

"Yes! ”

Commander Liu needed to secretly order with his subordinates, so he didn't stop, and when he opened the door, it happened that the housekeeper came to deliver water, and Yulou asked people to prepare for Chu Xingyuan, and he also withdrew from the room.

***

At the time of the lamp, Ye Zhihuan came to Chu Xingyuan's room to invite him over, Chu Xingyuan was still wearing a purple official uniform, got up and straightened his hat, and followed Ye Zhihuan to the main courtyard.

This place has been properly arranged, countless lamps are scattered so that the courtyard is as bright as day, the officials standing on both sides are pressed together, and a table of delicacies has already filled the table, such a luxurious banquet is not inferior to the palace banquet at all.

Chu Xingyuan glanced at it, and with an extremely charming smile on his lips, he motioned for everyone to sit down.

"This official came to Xining for the first time, and he is not very familiar with you, if he goes back to Beijing and asks, he will not be able to explain, so I would like to point out a little roster for you to introduce, so that this official can be seated, I don't know if it is possible?"

Ye Zhihuan raised his fat face and smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, "My lord is wise, then start from Xiaguan here, and report the name clockwise, Xiaguan Xining Governor Ye Zhihuan, a Jinshi who has been in Youde for fifteen years." ”

An official beside him stood up and clenched his fists, "Xiaguan Shuoping Zhizhou Liu Wannian......"

Seeing that Chu Xingyuan was very willing to understand himself, the officials all wanted to show it, and the jade building behind Chu Xingyuan took up a pen and registered the names of the official positions they said one by one on the book.

It was the first time for Commander Liu to see such a relaxed and enthusiastic introduction scene, he stood beside Chu Xingyuan, and couldn't help but glance at this Lord Qincha, and admired it infinitely in his heart.

After everyone was introduced, Yulou nodded towards Chu Xingyuan, Ye Zhihuan got up and raised his wine glass, his fat face was full of smiles, "Xiaguan Jingqin sent a glass of wine, my lord has worked hard all the way!"

Chu Xingyuan didn't raise his glass, but chuckled, "Don't worry, since everyone is together, I also want to talk about the reason why this official came to Xining today!"

Ye Zhihuan nodded and put down the wine cup with a smile, looking like he was listening, Chu Xingyuan raised his hand and took out an account book from his sleeve, slapped his palm with it, and asked slowly.

"In the three years of drought in Xining, Shandu, and Qingtang provinces, you have truthfully distributed all the disaster relief funds allocated by the imperial court? Have the dried up canals been filled with new water diverted? Has the sediment in the river accumulated and can be cleaned up in time? Can the dam be built and stored in the project?"

The fat on Ye Zhihuan's cheeks trembled, and he quickly got up and clenched his fists, "Lord Qincha Mingjian, I will wait for three years to be discreet, what you said has been distributed and completed, tomorrow the official will accompany you to inspect everywhere?"

Chu Xingyuan shook his head, "I've been living in Xining for two days, I've been to all the surrounding states and counties, the canals are dry, the rivers are full of sediment, and the water storage project is just to put some stones in the river valley, how can Ye Futai explain it?"

As he spoke, he handed over the account book in his hand to Yulou, who walked up to Ye Zhihuan with the account book in his hand, and opened a few pages to show him at random, this Ye Futai's face turned pale in an instant, and he knelt in front of Chu Xingyuan.

"My lord Mingjian, this must be framed by someone!"

As he spoke, he grabbed Chu Xingyuan's sleeve, and his hand had already taken out a stack of large silver tickets from his sleeve, wanting to stuff them into Chu Xingyuan.

"Bribing the minister of the Qincha, the crime is added to the first degree, where is Commander Liu?"
