Chapter 68: The Bamboo Hairpin

In the end, Amber saw the painting and said in surprise: "This is what the girl is looking for these days?" ”

Hu Yi nodded and looked at Amber with a little surprise: "Do you know where it is?!" ”

Amber nodded: "When I cleaned up the house for the girl before, I saw that the slave saw that this hairpin was ordinary, and she didn't know where the girl got it, so she put it on the bottom layer of the girl's jewelry box. ”

Amber hurriedly found the hairpin.

As soon as Hu Yi held the hairpin in his hand, he felt a trace of coolness, and it was actually made of cool jade......

Hu Yi looked at the hairpin many times again and again, and made sure that there was no pattern or sign around the hairpin, so why did the person who saved Hu Zijue see at a glance that this hairpin was from the hands of the deceased?

Now that the hairpin is in hand, Hu Yiyi still can't remember how this hairpin came about, so she can only take this hairpin to curl her hair, maybe that day she will be seen by the person who saved Hu Zijue, then she can know how this hairpin came from.

In this way, Hu Yiyi put the hairpin matter behind her for the time being, she was still busy calculating the night, and she didn't have so much time to think about the things of her previous life.

After talking to Hu Zijue, Hu Yiyi trusted Hu Zijue a little more, and both of them spared no effort in calculating the matter of the night.

"There was a flood in the middle reaches of the Yellow River, but the officials along the road hid it, so this matter has not yet reached the capital, but the people along the Yellow River have suffered countless deaths and injuries due to the flood, and the people who survived have also been displaced and become displaced people, so this matter cannot be hidden for long." When Hu Yi talks about business, he is always extra calm.

"How do you know? I've never heard of it. "The Yellow River flood has not happened in the previous life, so Hu Zijue is very curious about how Hu Yiyi knew, after all, the middle of the Yellow River is not too close to the capital.

Hu Yi smiled and said: "Because I recently took in a strategist, he was separated from his family because he met the homeless, I was very curious, where there will be homeless people, so I sent someone out of Beijing, and I only knew about it." ”

As soon as Hu Yi said, his face sank slightly.

If this kind of thing is reported earlier, the imperial court can send people to relieve the disaster as soon as possible, and more people can be saved, but the officials along the road actually hide it, so it can be seen that there must be a lot of cats in it, and eighty percent of this flood is not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster, so these officials are so afraid of reporting.

"Ah Qi is keen!" Hu Zijue sighed, "Sooner or later, there will be exiles coming to the capital, and then this matter will not be hidden, is Ah Qi planning?" ”

When Hu Yi heard Hu Zijue ask about her plans, she hooked the corners of her mouth: "I plan to let King Zhou deal with this flood." ”

"Although this flood is not easy to manage, if it is properly managed, it is a great achievement, you ......" Hu Zijue raised his eyebrows, and his intuition told him that it was not so simple.

"Of course, King Zhou has made as much merit as possible, and I am talking about the 'merit' of 'merit that covers the master'." Hu Yi winked at Hu Zijue.

After all, the capital is the capital of Dayan, and there are countless dignitaries and wealthy squires.

However, as soon as Hu Yi got the news, those displaced people were driven out thirty or forty miles away from the capital, and they were not allowed to come to the capital, and they were to be driven back to their hometowns.

"Those homeless people were holding their breath, thinking that they would be better if they came to the capital, so they came over after trekking all the way through the mountains and rivers, and who knew that they hadn't eaten a mouthful of hot rice, so they went down to the Yellow Spring first...... "Qingdai almost cried."

"When those homeless people heard that they were not allowed to enter the city, they were naturally angry, but before they could make trouble, they were killed as an example, so the remaining homeless people didn't dare to make any more noise to enter the city, but they also refused to leave, the scene was a bit deadlocked, and in the end, the Pei family came forward and gave those homeless people a bag of dry food and let them go back to their hometowns." Since he knew about the flooding of the Yellow River and the continuous flow of displaced people, Hu Yiyi asked Hu Ji to wait outside the capital to see when those displaced people would arrive in the capital, so Hu Ji saw this.

"The Pei family is good at being people," Hu Yi sneered, his voice was a little cold, "It's a pity that such a bag of dry food can't support those homeless people to return to their hometowns at all, they can eat two meals at most, and then starve to death on the way back." ”

"These people have gone too far in order to cover up the flooding of the Yellow River!" Luan Yin was so angry that her face turned red.

"A few years ago, the imperial court sent people down to control the places along the Yellow River that were prone to flooding, so the flooding of the Yellow River this time is estimated to be either related to the prince or the king of Zhou, otherwise this thing would not have happened for so long and no one knew." Hu Yi read the classics of the imperial court's treatment of the Yellow River floods, and asked Hu Zijue to inquire, and learned that the imperial court had vigorously treated the Yellow River floods about four or five years ago, and the Yellow River basically did not have large-scale floods since then.

Where the problem is, it is obvious that there must have been a problem in the previous treatment of the Yellow River floods, such as embezzlement of public funds, shoddy and so on.

As for whose pocket the embezzled public funds ended up in, it is up to the prince and Ye Wuxian to ask.

After all, now the forces of the DPRK and China can cover up for a long time with one hand and block the news from entering Beijing, except for the crown prince and Ye Wuxian, it is estimated that there is no one else.

"Now that the displaced people can't enter Beijing, won't the things we prepared be useless?" Luan Yin said that since Hu Yiyi knew about the flooding of the Yellow River, he had people prepare a lot of food, planning to help the victims after the displaced people poured into the capital.

"Don't worry, it will definitely come in handy, and when I figure out who is behind this, I can move on to the next step." There are not dozens or hundreds of displaced people coming to the capital, so she doesn't believe that this matter can really be kept hidden.

Soon, Hu Yiyi learned from Lu Jingzhan that the prince was playing tricks behind the flooding of the Yellow River this time.

This is similar to what Hu Yiyi expected.

One is because Ye Wuxian is not so stupid to eat the cake that may cause problems at any time to deal with the Yellow River flood, and the second is because four or five years ago, Ye Wuxian was only fifteen or sixteen years old, how can there be such a big force, he can swallow so much silver unconsciously, and the prince at that time has reached the age of the weak crown, he is the prince, and he has the support of his mother and wife around him, he can do such a thing, and the third is because after the accident, this matter was suppressed, and even the displaced people were violently suppressed outside the capital, this is not like the style of acting in the night, after all, there are some things that cannot be suppressed, but will cause a greater backlash.

"If this is caused by the prince's corruption, then we will have a good show." After Hu Yi got the news that the person behind the scenes was the prince, there was a little smile in his eyes.

"What do you mean by that?" Gongsun Yan raised his eyebrows, since he was provoked by Hu Yiyi last time, Gongsun Yan didn't hide it, and secretly poked and poked next door to overhear Hu Yiyi and Lu Jingzhan talking.

Hu Yi hurriedly said that the Pei family came forward to send food to be a good person, and then said with a smile: "It seems that King Zhou also knows about this matter, so don't we have a good show?" ”

"I'll just say, it's impossible for King Zhou not to know about such a big thing, it turns out that there has been a move a long time ago." Lu Jingzhan nodded in understanding.

"Then why did he endure it for so long and never poke this matter out?" Gongsun Yan frowned, although he didn't see with his own eyes what the flooding of the Yellow River looked like, nor did he see how lonely those displaced people were, but just thinking about it, he felt that those people were pitiful, and if Ye Wuxian had poked this matter out earlier, it would have been solved earlier.

"One is that he needs time to find out whether the prince is behind this matter, so that he can prescribe the right medicine, and it is best to take this opportunity to completely suppress the prince, and second, he is waiting for this matter to make a big fuss, only if it is big, when he deals with the prince, can he be more ruthless." Hu Yiyi couldn't know more about the actions of the night.

Gongsun Yan snorted coldly: "So one of them pressed the news to death, and the other stood by and watched, and maybe even helped the prince suppress the news, otherwise how could it be so long, and the court still didn't know anything." ”

Hu Yi nodded, she agreed with Gongsun Yan's statement: "If the prince alone can hide this matter so tightly, then he doesn't have to be afraid of King Zhou, so after the incident, the prince blocked the news for the first time, but there are still people who ran out and became refugees in order to survive, so this matter was quickly known by King Zhou, and after the King of Zhou summed it up, he decided to help the prince hide this matter, and secretly escorted those homeless people to the capital, so as not to die on the road. can't get to the capital at all, so it's not good for him to open up this matter logically. ”

After hearing what Hu Yiyi said, Lu Jingzhan was so surprised that his jaw almost rested on the table: "I haven't said anything yet, I just said that the prince is behind this matter, you know everything?!" That's amazing......"

He asked people to check the matter for so long, and Hu Yi actually guessed it as soon as he guessed?!

Because Lu Jingzhan's expression was too exaggerated, Hu Yiyi couldn't help laughing, and shook his head while laughing: "I'm just thinking about the problem from the perspective of King Zhou, according to his temperament, it's not strange to be able to do such a thing." ”

"The fifth sister-in-law seems to know King Zhou very well?" Lu Jingzhan tilted his head, revealing a puzzled look.

As early as when Ye Yi and Hu Yiyi were getting closer and closer, Lu Jingzhan went to check on Hu Yiyi, and did not find any close intersection between Hu Yiyi and Ye Wuyi, so Lu Jingzhan asked this question.

Faced with Lu Jingzhan naturally calling Hu Yiyi his fifth sister-in-law, and Hu Yiyi looked accustomed to it, Gongsun Yan glared at Lu Jingzhan a few times in displeasure, and Lu Jingzhan didn't see it.

And Hu Yiyi naturally wouldn't say that the reason why she knew about Ye Wuxian was because of the events of her previous life, so she deliberately betrayed Guan Zi and said: "That's because I have already planted people around King Zhou, you can guess who." ”

"Don't guess, don't guess," Gongsun Yan hurriedly waved his hand, "You little girl has a lot of thoughts, the old man can't guess." ”

Lu Jingzhan hurriedly pulled Gongsun Yan's sleeve and signaled Gongsun Yan not to talk like this, but Hu Yiyi didn't mind, only smiled and said: "Then please ask Mr. Gongsun to watch, the prince and the king of Zhou are fighting, shouldn't I, a little girl with a lot of thoughts, profit from the fisherman?" ”

After that, Hu Yi smiled a little smugly.
