Chapter 17: Huge Greed
But Song Chuyi soon knew the reason why Zhou Weizhao wanted to see her, not because he contacted Ye Jingkuan and Cui Shaoting to get the news, but because he intercepted the news of another group of people. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Zhang Tianhe actually embezzled 200,000 taels of military salaries?!" No matter how sophisticated Rao is is as sophisticated as Song Chuyi, his eyes widened in surprise: "He doesn't want to die?!" Do you know how big a crime this is, once the Northwest mutiny......"
But then she sat up straight again in frustration------ under the premise that Old Lady Chen's plan was successful, even if Zhang Tianhe embezzled the 200,000 taels of military salaries and caused a mutiny, they could also blame the Cui family and Cui Shaoting, saying that they embezzled these military salaries to cause the mutiny---- Bi's embezzlement of military salaries was not something that Zhang Tianhe could do alone, and the officials over there would only say the same thing with the same tongue. As for whether the Tatars will take advantage of the situation, this is not something they will worry about.
But Song Chuyi's disgust and disgust for Zhang Tianhe couldn't help but go to the next level, and it was forgivable to be forced to go along with it, but it was too much to make money in his pocket like this and expect others to put oil in the pot for him. What's more, as the governor of the northwest, he didn't care about the life or death of the soldiers and the people at all, first stopped Cui Shaoting from repairing the Great Wall and strengthening the city defenses, and now he wants to embezzle the military salary.
Zhou Weizhao's face was also rare and not very good-looking, and a faint layer of disgust floated in his eyes that had always been calm and unwavering: "The Northwest Army's salary has been stretched out every year, and it has only been completely stopped for three years since your uncle was transferred to the trilateral general system. Now I know why your uncle is now lonely in the northwest, and if a person wants to spoil the wealth of a bunch of people, he will inevitably become a thorn in the side of others. Those people in the northwest probably wanted him to die for a long time, but the three-year term of office has expired, and the court has no intention of transferring your uncle away, so they will attack him in groups. β
Cui Shaoting is probably really difficult to go step by step in the northwest, thinking about it when he was in the paddock before, it seems to be a very difficult thing to contact Cui Shaoting------ the content of Thakin is always plausible, and now it seems that Cui Shaoting may have anticipated his situation.
Thinking about this, the anxiety in her heart calmed down strangely, since Cui Shaoting was not really kept in the dark and naΓ―ve and ignorant, but was controlled by others and had to be cautious, she was much more relieved.
Song Chuyi picked up the letter and read it again from the beginning, suppressed the anger that was almost boiling in his heart, and asked him calmly: "This is the original letter...... There is also Zhang Tianhe's private seal on it, and Zhang Tianhe can't run away with this. Is Your Highness planning to join him now? β
If Zhang Tianhe couldn't receive a reply, he would naturally know that the news had been leaked, and he would only fight back more frantically----- maybe even ignoring Old Lady Chen's plan, he directly planted a crime of embezzling military salaries and causing a military mutiny on Cui Shaoting, and gave him justice on the spot, and then cut him off and then reported it.
Zhou Weizhao looked at her and shook his head: "I have already asked someone to copy his letter and still send it out, that messenger is Zhang Tianhe's henchman, since he didn't notice it, when the letter is true, the person who receives the letter will naturally only regard it as true." It won't arouse their suspicion, so you can rest assured. β
Song Chuyi breathed a sigh of relief, although he knew that Zhou Weizhao was not the kind of person who didn't count, and he also knew that Zhou Weizhao's identity was not suitable for Zhang Tianhe's matter to invite credit, but he knew in his heart that it was one thing, and he still had to feel much more relieved when he heard the answer. She sat quietly for a while, only to feel that her mind was very messy, and she looked up and asked Zhou Weizhao: "Then according to His Highness's intentions, what should I do about this matter?" β
How to save Cui Shaoting from such a big swamp, and how to withdraw from the Chen family's nose?
Zhou Weizhao looked at Song Chuyi without blinking, and looked at her for a while, before revealing a smile: "You can do whatever you want." β
Song Chuyi couldn't help but open her mouth a little in surprise, Zhou Weizhao always seemed to be able to see through what others were thinking, this is really a terrifying skill, she lowered her head, raised her head again after a while, and looked directly into Zhou Weizhao's eyes fearlessly: "The northwest side was already rotten more than ten years ago when Chang Shoufu was not the first assistant, and Lord Shoufu also transferred Zhang Tianhe and my uncle to the northwest one after another because of this, right?" It's a pity that Zhang Tianhe's own body is also full of sewage, since there are always people who covet the northwest side, and the thieves shout to catch the thieves and want to hide from the sky and the sea in front of the saint, why don't you just ask them to show the prototype? β
On the northwest side is a pustule, and if you poke it, it will hurt the flesh and skin, but if you don't pierce it and keep it to grow, it will only rot in patches, and finally it will be impossible to clean up.
In the last generation, the Tatars captured the northwest and fought all the way to the capital, which is enough to show how hard the teeth of these moths are. No matter how strong the foreign enemy is, it is not terrible, what is terrible is that it is rotten from the roots, and when the wind blows, it does not need to be pushed by anyone, and it will fall down with a light blow.
Zhou Weizhao also knew this truth, so he persuaded the prince not to insert people in Yangzhou----- otherwise what is the difference between this and Duanwang Gongwang and others? The money still doesn't get into the household, it still flows into other people's pockets.
"Ye Jingkuan will reply to me within five days at the latest, and I will tell him your plans at that time, and he will naturally tell your uncle." Zhou Weizhao looked at Song Chuyi, and neither agreed nor disagreed: "You go home and discuss with your grandfather and uncle, calculate the time and then act." β
The next thing is as Zhou Weizhao, it is indeed difficult to interfere again, Song Chuyi suddenly felt that she should give this highness who had been saving her from fire and water some returns, racked her brains and thought about it, her fists clenched loosely and loosely, and finally told him softly: "Your Highness should know that this trip to the northwest side will definitely make much more trouble than the Yangzhou side, and cutting off Zhang Tianhe and the former Wang and others to make money, which means that Zhang Tianhe and Chen Ge Lao and they will give the Tatars a yellow market, and the Tatars will not give up." ...... Although His Royal Highness has been named the emperor's grandson, in fact, his foothold has not been stable, and the saint was very martial when he was young, so His Highness might as well seize this opportunity in front of him to make a splash......"
Zhou Weizhao seemed to be a little shocked, raised his eyes to look at her for a while, and suddenly showed a mouthful of big white teeth, and smiled and revealed the two dimples on the side of his cheeks.
