Now that it's been exposed, there's no need for Mo Li to stay here.

Staying with Mo San and the others came to Gaoyou Chen's Mansion with Mo Yu, and after entrusting Mo Yu to Dong Xiaowan to take care of, Mo Li and the others came to Yingtian again.

In Yingtianfu, Hong Tao had just died, and the court of Shuntianfu had not yet received a notice, and Yingtianfu had become a place with no one to govern for a while.

Seeing this, Mo Li immediately came to the palace. After calling Xiong Hao, he asked: "Lord Xiong, now that this Hong Tao is newly dead, there is no mansion in Yingtianfu." I wonder if Lord Hong would like to take this position for the time being, until the next Fucheng appointed by the imperial court will succeed him?"

When Xiong Hao heard that Mo Li was looking for him, he originally thought that Mo Li was going to settle accounts after the autumn, but he didn't expect that he would be asked to temporarily take the position of Fu Cheng. Hearing this, Xiong Hao was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and thanked: "Thank you, Lord Xie, the lower officials are willing to serve the adults and serve the dogs and horses, and there will be no complaints before and after the saddle." The adults let the lower officials go to the east, and the lower officials will never go west; the adults let the lower officials catch the dogs, and the lower officials will never shoot the chickens. After that, Xiong Hao hesitated a little.

Mo Li saw that Xiong Hao had agreed, but suddenly hesitated again, and suddenly asked puzzledly, "What's the matter?"

"My lord doesn't know, this Ying Tianfu seems to be a word of the mansion, but in fact, since His Majesty sent people to develop farming, no one in those Beijing officials has taken the mansion in their eyes. The lower officials are afraid that their own people will speak lightly and mislead the affairs of adults. ”

When Mo Li heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Lord Xiong, just rest assured, you just need to say whether you are willing to take over temporarily, and you don't need to worry about other things." ”

Seeing that Mo Li's promise was so far, Xiong Hao immediately agreed with a thousand thanks.

Now that it has been decided to let Xiong Hao come to temporarily take over the position of Fu Cheng, then Mo San can withdraw from it.

After letting Xiong Hao leave first, the four of them began to discuss the next matter.

After Mo Li told the other three about what he had heard from Fan Jin, he asked, "You all know the matter, do you have any good ideas at the moment?"

Mo San belonged to the radical faction, and immediately said: "According to the disciple's humble opinion, I asked the disciple to go and kill all these officials." ”

Mo Li shook his head and said, "These things involve a wide range of things, and it is not good to break them directly by force." You can kill them, but the development of farming must continue, and Your Majesty will send new people to take over the matter. ”

Wu Lin didn't have any good ideas, he just lowered his head and thought of a way.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Tang Gu said: "Shangxian, although we have been exposed now, those Beijing officials have never seen us. We might as well find a few people to pretend to be us and leave, and then we can change our face and go straight inside them and start investigating the matter. ”

Mo Li nodded and said, "What Mr. Tang said is reasonable. But how are we going to get into them? After we make such a fuss, they will certainly be vigilant, and they will certainly not show their feet again. ”

Tang Gu smiled and said, "Have you forgotten, my lord? The current Lord Fucheng is from our side." Although they don't take Fu Cheng seriously, they can't help but sell his face. If Fu Cheng wants to arrange a few people to go in, they can't refuse. It's just that we need to pretend to be mediocre and let their guard down. When the time comes, we'll look into it. ”

Hearing this, Mo Li's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Good idea." Mr. Tang is really talented, so let's do what Mr. Tang said. ”

The next day, after completing the entry procedures for Hong Tao, he told Xiong Hao about his previous plan and asked him to cooperate.

Xiong Hao is also a ghostly clever, and when he heard it, he knew that they wanted to investigate the Agricultural Technology Division. But now he is also a person from Moli's side, so naturally he will not refute. So he talked about his thoughts: "According to the opinion of the lower officials, if the adults "leave" now, it is a little too obvious, it is better to live three days and then leave. First, it will take some time for the new officials to take up their posts, and they will need some time to establish a good relationship with them and get to know each other; second, if the adults help the lower officials to take office, if the lower officials do not invite the adults to eat and drink for a few days, they will definitely be suspicious. Therefore, Xia Guan thought that tomorrow Xia Guan would be the east, and he would feast the four adults to express his gratitude. Three days later, the lower officials will once again feast the four adults, which can be regarded as a practice for the adults. When the time comes, the lower officials will invite those Beijing officials to accompany them to make this matter an established fact. ”

Mo Li thought about it and felt that what Xiong Hao said made sense, and immediately agreed to his method. After all, he still has plenty of time, and he doesn't care about delaying a few more days.

In the afternoon of the next day, Xiong Hao used the name of Mo Li to invite all the Beijing officials sent by Zhu Youzhen.

Everyone sat on the left and right, the first on the left was Wu Qing, the former secretary of the Ministry of Justice, who had a relationship with Mo Li in the court, and Wu Qing was Yang Kaitai, the former secretary of the Ministry of Works, and the first person on the right was Xiong Hao, who was now temporarily acting as the official of the government, and the rest of the people were ranked in order according to the size of their official positions.

Seeing that everyone was almost here, Xiong Hao immediately sent someone to invite Mo to leave the table.

Seeing Mo leaving the table, Wu Qing and Yang Kaitai led a group of officials to stand up, and then raised their wine glasses and confessed: "The lower officials and others don't know that the national teacher is coming, and they are disappointed, and they hope that the national teacher will forgive their sins." ”

Mo Li pressed his hands down, motioned for them to sit down, and then said, "I don't blame you for this. The deity was ordered by His Majesty to come to secretly visit the progress of agricultural development, if you were to know in advance, wouldn't it mean that the deity was unreliable?"

With that, Mo Li and these officials touched the wine glasses in the air, and drank all the wine in the glasses.

Mo Li had just finished drinking, Xiong Hao stood up again and said, "Xiaguan Xiong Hao, thanks to the love of the national teacher, I will bring the lower official to temporarily take the position of this mansion." After drinking the wine in the cup, he spoke again: "Although Xia Guan is the temporary acting of the government, he will also do what he has learned all his life and manage the Ying Tianfu properly, so that I should be in the wind and rain, and the people will not close their doors at night and the road will not be left behind." ”

Hearing Xiong Hao's words, Mo Li nodded and said, "It's good that you have this heart." In a few days, the deity will leave for Beijing to report what he has seen and heard on this trip to His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to appoint a new prince to succeed him. During this time, Lord Lao Xiong has to worry a lot. ”

Seeing that Mo Li and Xiong Hao had finished greeting, Yang Kaitai's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he asked, "I don't know what the National Teacher has found this time?"

Mo Li nodded and said, "The deity has come this time and has already checked the whole story. Originally, Tianfu Cheng Hongtao filled his pockets, accepted bribes, and cronyism. First, he took advantage of his official position to let his relatives and friends profit from it, and then he took money from others, and gave a limited amount of fertile land to those who bribed him. Such a wicked official, the deity has already put him to death. ”

When Yang Kaitai heard Mo Li say this, he immediately put his heart down, and said secretly: "Fortunately, I haven't been found." After thinking about it, Yang Kaitai slapped the table and said angrily: "The National Teacher doesn't know anything. What Hongtao did, the lower officials also saw it, but several persuasions from the lower officials were fruitless. In desperation, he only thought about waiting for the time to return to Beijing to report the matter to His Majesty. But I don't want to, the national teacher has already solved this corrupt official in silence. ”

Mo Li said with a smile: "In this way, it is the deity who has robbed Lord Yang of the credit." ”

Yang Kaitai heard Mo Li say this, and hurriedly explained: "The National Teacher has misunderstood, and the lower official didn't mean that. The lower official means that the national teacher is decisive in handling things, and the lower official can compare. ”

Mo Li shook his head and said, "Kaitai also misunderstood the deity. The deity is indeed guilty of robbing you of your credit. ”

"The national teacher still remembers the name of the lower official, and the lower official is terrified. With that, Yang Kaitai picked up his wine glass, and drank another glass of wine.

The business came to an end for the time being, and in the following time, Mo Li introduced the three martial arts to them, and then began to sing and dance.

A wine banquet slowly came to an end amid everyone's praise for Mo Li.
