Chapter 081: Secret Tracking

"You said you were selling the best honey in the mountains, how can you prove it?" A middle-aged man in green clothes walked out of the Ji Mansion and asked him.

Pepper hurriedly put down the burden, opened one of the honey pots, scooped out a spoonful of honey with a wooden spoon, handed it to him, and said: "Look at it, it is congealed, from the deep mountains of all kinds of wild flowers, high in sugar, low in water, so the effect is gelatinous and coagulated, and it smells like a hundred flowers. ”

Tsing Yi couldn't help but swallow a few saliva when he saw this honey, and now when he heard him say this, he immediately opened his mouth and tasted it.

But it is sweet and fragrant, and there is a slight sourness, and the aftertaste is still endless after swallowing. He couldn't help but be overjoyed.

He was in charge of supervising the purchase of food in Jifu, and he knew that this was the best of honey. Because it is not adulterated, it not only retains the aroma of a hundred flowers, but also has a faint sourness, and if it is adulterated honey, it can only taste sweet.

"I've got all this load, help me pick it in." The man in Tsing Yi said.

"Okay." Pepper immediately picked up the honey and followed him into the Ji Mansion.

Since he had observed the interior of the Kifu earlier, he was familiar with the map inside. He knew that if he entered from here, he wouldn't have to walk far to reach Ji Chengfan's study.

The man in Tsing Yi led him to a row of bungalows and told him to put the honey down.

"Don't you need my help moving into the house?" Pepper asked.

"No, I'll just ask someone to move it." The man in Tsing Yi said. While taking out the silver taels from his pocket, he gave them to him.

Pepper took the silver taels and said, "I have a batch of honey at home, and I can bring another if you need it." These honeys can't be bought by others at a high price. ”

"How many do you have left?" The man in Tsing Yi's eyes lit up. Looking at him asked.

"Forty-six cans." Pepper replied.

"I'm afraid I won't have that much, the little house with honey is almost full."

"Mind letting me in and see the room where you have honey? I have some experience in the placement and storage of honey and may be able to help you. ”

The man in Tsing Yi thought for a moment. Allowed.

When Pepper went in, the three shelves were full of large jars of honey, but there were still some gaps between the shelves.

"Your shelves aren't designed well enough, if you don't mind, I'll help you redesign a set of shelves, so you can fit a lot more."

"It's okay, then you can bring it with the shelf then."

"Hmm. A total of six shelves. ”

"It's okay, it won't be less of your money anyway." The man in Tsing Yi said with a smile.

Pepper nodded.

"By the way, what should I call you. I see that you are very much like one of my cousins, so I feel very kind. Pepper said again.

The man in Tsing Yi also had a faint smile on his face, and said, "My surname is Zheng, call me Uncle Zheng." ”

"Hello Uncle Zheng! Thank you for your kind attention in the future. ”

"Hmm." Uncle Zheng nodded.

Suddenly. Pepper clutched her stomach and said, "Ouch." I have an urgent need to urinate, do you have a toilet here to use? ”

Uncle Zheng thought for a while, pointed to the corridor on the left and said: "Go straight to the corridor on the left, go to the first turn and turn left, and soon you will see it, remember, come back quickly when you are done, don't run around." ”

"That's nature. How can I make trouble for Uncle Zheng. Pepper said and immediately rushed over to that side.

After turning the corner, Pepper immediately flew towards Ji Chengfan's study.

I'm walking. Suddenly, two rings carrying food baskets came in front of him, and he hurriedly flashed into the corner of the room on one side.

When they were a little farther away, he came out and continued on his way to his destination.

Soon, he came to Ji Chengfan's study.

But of course he wouldn't stay long in this plain sight.

He leaped lightly, leaping over the clump of flowers and towards the back of the study.

It's clinging to a wall, so outsiders won't find him lightly.

He poked a small hole in the window with his finger and looked through the hole.

Ji Chengfan happened to be inside at this time, and he was talking softly to a subordinate: "Go and inform them, and we will set off as soon as the sun sets." ”

The man immediately took the order and went away.

Pepper also immediately jumped over the flowers and ran towards Uncle Zheng.

"It's settled, I'm relaxed, thank you Uncle Zheng, we'll see you next time." With that, Pepper immediately left the Ji Mansion.

Of course, he didn't go far, but stood on the top of a small building not far from the Ji Mansion, staring at the Ji Mansion with his eyes intently.

When the sun set, Pepper saw Ji Chengfan and two bodyguards walking out.

This time, Ji Chengfan did not sit in a sedan chair, but rode away with the two bodyguards.

Pepper also immediately changed her appearance to be completely different from when she met Uncle Zheng, and followed along the road on horseback.

They dismounted in front of a teahouse in the suburbs and went up to a box on the second floor.

Pepper also immediately booked a box next to their box.

However, even if he listened intently, he could not hear the voice of the next room. So he climbed out of the window, leaning against the wall and approaching the window of the next box, and soon he heard their conversation.

Since this side of the window is facing the mountain forest, and it is at night, no one will find him.

"I've called you here to say that if you don't report it, you'll keep everyone safe, and if you do, you'll be safe...... You get the idea. Pepper could hear that this was Ji Chengfan's voice.

"Prime minister, please rest assured, we can't be ungrateful with your help, and we will never do those things, and we won't do it in the slightest." Another man's voice said.

Others also agreed, so that the prime minister should not worry.

"It's the best, and there will be more times when we need to support each other in the future." Ji Chengfan said.

"That's that, that's." Everyone said in unison.

After a while, Pepper heard their farewell and hurried back to her box.

Pepper peeks out through the crack in the door of the box. Seeing that there were six people along with Ji Chengfan, they slowly descended the stairs together and walked towards the account collection desk.

Pepper saw them walk out of the doorway. Also immediately walked down to check out.

"Do they come often?" Pepper asked the shopkeeper, but his eyes looked at them outside the door without blinking.

"Yes, often." The shopkeeper replied.

"Is it all the same?"

"Hmm."

"Thank you!" Pepper clenched her fist at him.

Ji Chengfan and his entourage left separately not long after leaving the small teahouse. Pepper continued to follow Ji Chengfan, who returned to the Ji Mansion.

Seeing Ji Chengfan enter the Ji Mansion, Pepper immediately rode back to the Hou Mansion and told her everything he saw and heard.

"Sure enough, the prime minister has accepted favors from others behind his back, and you continue to follow him for a while. Let's see if we can catch more. Hee Zhen said to Pepper.

"Okay."

Xi Zhen looked at the pepper that had not had time to wash off the disguise on his face, and said with a smile, "It seems that you have learned the essence." ”

"Thanks to your teaching."

"I've worked hard for you in the past few days, and I'll reward you when it's done."

"Thank you, master."

"You have to be careful these days."

"I will. Then I'll follow him first. ”

"Okay. There you go. ”

Pepper immediately rode out of Houfu and headed straight for Jifu.

………………….

The Ministry of Integrity is in full swing.

Emperor Guangzhao issued a decree that it should be completed within twenty days.

Everyone worked together, and it really lived up to the emperor's high expectations, and it was completed on the twentieth day.

There was an endless stream of people who came to report it.

However. People are reporting relatively minor corruption incidents. There is almost no involvement of high-ranking officials in important positions.

………………….

"What if you have a clean and honest department? None of the real corrupt officials dared to report it. ”

"Isn't it? Officials have always guarded each other, who can move them. ”

"You wait and see, since Guang'an Hou wants to set it up, it will definitely not be so simple, maybe the good show is still to come."

"No matter how powerful she is, can she beat those high-powered corrupt officials?"

"Isn't surprise her forte? I have confidence in her policy. ”

Whispers came from the crowd.

…………………….

"No one reported it, hahahaha, who would dare to report us." Upstairs in the drunken immortals, Fei Yun, the head of the household, said with a smug face. Raise your glass to everyone.

"Don't take it lightly, what a powerful person Guang'an is waiting for. Do you think she's just so light? Fang Fengda, the secretary of the ministry, said.

Hearing him say this, everyone's expressions suddenly converged a lot.

"Prime Minister, looking at the whole Xi Kingdom, you are the one with the most wealth, you should pay special attention." Wen Tibao, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, looked at Ji Chengfan and said.

"Brother Wen, don't worry, I haven't made much money this year." Ji Chengfan said with a smile.

The crowd burst into laughter.

"Prime Minister, what you said is not right, who doesn't know that you received tens of thousands of taels of silver last month." Fang Fengda said again.

"A little, a little." Ji Chengfan responded modestly.

While everyone was talking, they suddenly heard footsteps outside, and when everyone turned their heads to look, their faces were suddenly frightened.

It turned out that the people who came were Emperor Guangzhao, Shen Xizhen, Chu Zican, Chu Zihou and Chu Ziyao.

Behind them, dozens of elite soldiers stood in unison.

It turned out that from Pepper's secret tracking of Ji Chengfan during this time, Shen Xizhen had already roughly known about Ji Chengfan's many corruption incidents, and this morning he learned from Pepper about Ji Chengfan's gathering with several other accomplices, and thought that the time was ripe, and immediately asked the emperor for instructions - to personally round up this group of people.

"Prime Minister, there is a way to say: Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, your good luck should also come to an end." Emperor Guangzhao looked at Ji Chengfan, who was kneeling in front of him, and said
