After a conversation with this fat county commander, Qin Ming realized that some situations in the imperial court or in this world were deeper than he imagined.

From the very beginning, there was a rebellion, and now so long has passed, there is still corruption, the problem of the victims is deceived and concealed, and interests are involved everywhere.

And these benefits are built on the suffering of the victims.

The county seat where Qin Ming is located is only a county town that is less affected by the drought, and the number of people affected by the disaster is less than 10,000, and it is still so dark and chaotic.

What about other places?

Qin Ming took a deep breath and decided that after returning to the imperial capital this time, he would ask the emperor for his life, and personally go to several disaster areas to check it out, and he had to clean up all those who made a fortune in the country and the people in the disaster.

The world will be his, and he doesn't care who cares about these things?

Thinking of this, Qin Ming looked at the fat county order:

"You'd better atone for the official here, maybe you can avoid death, and the official will go back to the court, and none of the corrupt guys above will be able to escape."

The fat county commander's face changed, and he said, "My lord, you are only a fourth-grade official, and the lower official advises you not to mess around." ”

"Hmph, in this world, there is no one who Lao Tzu can't afford to mess with." Qin Ming snorted coldly, then turned around and said to Yan Lingfei:

"Let's go!"

Yan Lingfei frowned: "The situation here is like this?" In case as soon as we leave, the people of the county government will release the fat county order, won't these victims suffer again? ”

"For the time being, the fat county order doesn't dare to mess around, don't worry. Besides, you can't solve the problem here, you can't cure the symptoms but not the root cause, and if you really want to solve the problem, you have to start from above. Qin Ming said.

Yan Lingfei nodded and said, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

"Go back to the imperial capital, let Your Majesty send me as the minister of the Imperial Mission, I will check it all the way!" Qin Ming's eyes were cold.

So, Qin Ming went out of the city, took out a small motorcycle, and continued to drive Yan Lingfei for an hour, leaving Ba County and arriving outside Mozhou City.

The previous county seat, Ba County, was under the jurisdiction of Mozhou, Mozhou and Huzhou were next to each other, and several cities in both states were affected by drought.

It's just that the original prefect of Huzhou City was too greedy, and he was greedy for all the relief money and grain, forcing the victims to rebel.

The disaster in Mozhou was also severe, but there were no reports of the rebellion of the victims.

It is estimated that it is like the fat county order of Naba County, so that the victims will not starve to death, and they will not be fed.

Outside Mozhou City, Qin Ming put away the motorcycle, and he was going to go to the city to have a look.

If the victims in Mozhou City are also hungry and hungry, then it is really as the fat county order said, these officials are greedy with this method.

A few miles outside the city, there were almost no people, just Qin Ming and Yan Lingfei walking leisurely.

Not long after, on the official road next to it, a carriage came over and also headed towards Mozhou.

Around the carriage were a dozen guards on horseback with official swords, all of whom were dressed as poor men.

So the people sitting in the carriage should be officials.

Qin Ming glanced at the carriage, and was a little curious about what kind of official was sitting inside.

The carriage was moving very fast, and it seemed to be in a hurry.

But the next moment, Qin Ming knew why he was in such a hurry, because just twenty meters behind the carriage, there was a group of black-clothed masked men riding horses and holding knives chasing the carriage in front of them.

Qin Ming was stunned at the time, what was the situation? Robbing and killing officials in broad daylight?

That's really the case, I saw a few black-clothed people riding horses approaching, performing light skills, and a few somersaults to the front of the carriage.

The horseman and the carriage were quickly forced to stop, and a fight ensued.

Originally, Qin Ming was just going to see the excitement, but among the few black-clothed people who rushed up behind, one pointed at Qin Ming and Yan Lingfei and said, "Kill the mouth!" ”

So, immediately a man in black came back with a knife at Qin Ming and Yan Lingfei.

"Hey? I'll go to your uncle's, and I'll be shot while lying down? ”

Qin Ming was furious, and when he saw that Yan Lingfei was about to make a move, Qin Ming stopped him and said:

"Lao Tzu is coming!"

As he spoke, he stepped out of his body, and a hand jerked out.

"Bang~"

A bullet hit the man in black, and the man in black immediately fell to the ground.

Yan Lingfei was stunned for a moment, thinking that Qin Ming was going to show off his strength, but he didn't expect to use a gun.

Then, Qin Ming held the gun and kept aiming at those black-clothed people, and the banging sound kept sounding, and after a while, all eight or nine black-clothed people fell to the ground.

Looking at Qin Ming, he blew the muzzle of the gun and said: "Martial arts in the world, only fast and not broken!" ”

Yan Lingfei was speechless for an instant......

After putting the gun away, a messenger stepped forward and clenched his fists: "Thank you for your help!" ”

Qin Ming waved his hand: "Little meaning, by the way, who are these people?" ”

The messenger shook his head: "We don't know, just suddenly came out to chase us!" ”

Qin Ming nodded, and asked again, "Who is the lord of the sedan chair?" ”

"Oh, we are from the imperial capital, and in the sedan chair is Lord Shiro of the Household Department, and we have come to Mozhou to investigate the matter of disaster relief food." The messenger said.

Hearing this, Qin Ming was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, could it be that the household department also knew about the embezzlement of grain funds in Mozhou?

Just as he was pondering, a poor man suddenly shouted: "It's not good, the adult has been stabbed." ”

Suddenly, these messengers hurriedly went over to check, Qin Ming also walked to the sedan chair, and when he looked into the sedan chair, he saw a familiar official sitting inside, with a knife wound on his chest and blood in his mouth.

Obviously, in the chaotic fight just now, he was stabbed by the man in black, and the target of the man in black was him.

At this moment, the thirty-year-old man in the sedan chair covered his wound and said:

"This official ...... I'm afraid it won't work...... This Mozhou is a big problem, you should quickly return to the imperial capital and tell Lord Shangshu......"

"Adult ......"

These poor people were very anxious, and then Qin Ming spoke:

"Kurabe Shiro, do you still know me?"

The frail middle-aged man glanced at Qin Ming when he heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and he said excitedly, "Qin Ming...... Lord Qin? ”

"Yes, it's the official."

Qin Ming nodded, he had served as an inspector in the household department, and he killed the household department Shangshu and the two squires, so the officials of the household department knew him.

The middle-aged man was very excited and said, "Lord Qin, why are you here?" ”

"Leave me alone, tell me, what are you doing in Mozhou?" Qin Ming asked.

The middle-aged man nodded: "Xiaguan...... His name is Bai Lin, and he is a great scholar of Shangshu...... The lord sent a subordinate to investigate the disaster relief food. Also in the affected areas... The monthly grain payment from Huzhou Government is getting smaller and smaller.

However, the prefect of Mozhou Prefecture reported that the victims were still ...... It's still so much, so the amount of food you need every month has not decreased but increased, so it's still ...... The book sama suspects that there is a problem.

Who knows it's not ...... Before entering Mozhou City, he encountered an ambush here, which is even more proven...... proved the conjecture of Lord Shangshu, Mozhou...... Problematic ......"

Qin Ming sneered when he heard this: "It's not just a problem, it's a big problem." ”

Then he looked at the middle-aged man and said, "It seems that the new Hubu Shangshu is indeed a good official." ”

The middle-aged man sighed: "Yes, but... It's a pity that the next official didn't finish it...... Shangshu-sama's mission ......"

Speaking of this, he tilted his head slowly, and he ran out of breath.

"Adult~Adult......" The people were grief-stricken.

Qin Ming's heart also sank, and then he looked at the corpse of the middle-aged man in the sedan chair, and said:

"Your task, I'll help you complete it!"

As he spoke, he took a deep breath and shouted:

"Everyone, listen, from now on, I'm Tobe Kurabe Shiro Nakahakubayashi."
