Chapter 381: Harvesting Grain

After the military aircraft department was dispersed, Liu Yu went straight to the household without any delay, and Liu Yu now felt a little annoyed with this old friend, how could these things happen to him.

When Liu Yu came to the household department, he didn't let anyone report it, and went directly to Liu Wan's study to deal with official business, and Liu Wan was holding a few account books there at this time.

Liu Wan heard the sound of the door opening, looked up and saw that it was Liu Yu, and quickly stood up to greet him.

Liu Yu didn't care about his etiquette, stepped forward a few steps, grabbed his hand, and immediately asked, "Brother Xian, what's going on?" Can we get enough food? ”

Liu Wan was still smiling, but when he heard him ask, the smile on his face immediately disappeared.

"Brother, can't we not mention this matter, you also know my brother's difficulties, if I had food, it would have been transported to the capital a long time ago."

Liu Wan was also a little helpless, he really didn't dare to investigate this matter, there was one in the household department, and there were more or less corrupt behaviors. If this is investigated, there will be no one in the entire household.

Liu Yu didn't care about him, but said to him with a green face: "Today at the Military Aircraft Department, Jia Ke is going to check your household department, and I opened my mouth to stop it and buy you five days, and within these five days, if your household department wants not to be investigated, you must prepare food." Otherwise, Jia Ke will turn his face and deny people at that time, and I will have no way to speak for you anymore. ”

Liu Yu paused for a moment and continued to warn Liu Wan, "You have to be careful this time, I think Jia Ke is already a little anxious, if you don't get things done, he will kill someone." ”

After hearing this, the sweat on Liu Wan's face came out, his hands and feet were cold now, and he couldn't even stand on his feet. He has been going to the Zhongshun palace several times these days, hoping that the Zhongshun king will come forward to put this matter down.

The king of Zhongshun persuaded him kindly, telling him not to worry, and if something happened in the end, he would be in front of him. Because of this, Liu Wan was able to run errands in the household department with peace of mind in these days. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that I will never forget it, but I shooked him.

Liu Yu looked at Liu Wan's appearance and knew that things were not good, and now he couldn't take care of it, so he was about to leave the household department with Liu Wan.

Who knew that Liu Wan was grabbing his hand now and not letting go, "Brother don't go, brother don't go, I'm afraid that the younger brother will be in trouble again this time, please give the younger brother an idea to save the younger brother's life." ”

Although Liu Yu wanted to shake off his hand and leave directly, he couldn't bear to look at his pitiful appearance.

"You, how can you do such a foolish thing, since you didn't take the money, why did you cover it up for them, I can't tell you now." Liu Yu knew that Liu Wan would not lie to himself, and he said that if he didn't take the money, he must not have taken the money.

"The elder brother, who is also the younger brother, was confused for a while, and was afraid of the power of the loyal king, so he buried it for him." Liu Wan has now finally said the name of King Zhongshun.

Liu Yu was also startled when he heard this name, and only then did he feel Liu Wan's embarrassment. Although King Zhongshun can only be a prince of peace now, with his relationship with the emperor, as long as he does not rebel, there will be a big thing, and the emperor has nothing to do with him.

Liu Yu came back and walked a few laps around the floor of the study. Then he said to Liu Wan: "Now there are only two ways. ”

"Please teach me, brother."

"The first way, you immediately go and talk to those people in the grain storage road in person, and ask them to raise money separately and replenish the food immediately."

"Brother, even if he has money, he can't buy so much food now?" Liu Wan was a little embarrassed, after all, if the large-scale purchase of grain now would inevitably lead to an increase in grain prices, and then they would lose a lot of money, how could those officials who were used to making money be willing to do so?

"Then you can only use the second method, you immediately enter the palace and confess this matter to the emperor, this matter involves the king of Zhongshun, and the emperor cannot deal with it publicly, otherwise the life of the king of Zhongshun will not be guaranteed, so you can only make up for it by allocating money from the inner treasury."

As soon as Liu Wan heard this idea, he immediately became excited, "That's the way, my brother is really clever." ”

Liu Yu glanced at him disdainfully and said, "If it were me, I would rather pay for these grains by myself than go to see the emperor." ”

Liu Wan asked puzzledly, "Brother, what is the truth of this?" ”

"Now that you see the emperor, the emperor may have to cover up this matter for you, but you have given all the bottom of the household to the emperor, do you think the emperor knows that you are so greedy and perverts the law, what will he think in his heart, how will the emperor trust you in the future, and what will happen to these officials in the household department in the future?"

Liu Wan suddenly realized now, he thought about it, and his face was gloomy as if he was about to drip water. In the end, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said to Liu Yu next to him: "I understand what my brother meant, I will gather people and let them make up the silver for me, otherwise I don't need to take people from the military aircraft, I will let them see the king of Hades one by one tonight." ”

Liu Yu was relieved to see that Liu Wan had understood what he meant.

"You have to do this as soon as possible, as for the king of loyalty, from now on I am afraid that he will never be able to get involved in the government again, he will abandon all these people in his hands if something happens now, who will dare to follow him in the future, so you don't have to take him to heart from now on." Liu Yu has seen the stupidity of King Zhongshun, after this incident, who else in the world can buy his face?

Liu Wan nodded fiercely and said, "Brother, junior brother understands." This little brother of the loyal king can't afford to be contaminated. ”

Liu Yu wanted to ask about his savings and said to him: "This matter can't be so unclear. You will go to the palace of the king of Zhongshun in a while, and tell the king of Zhongshun about this matter clearly, if he gives the silver, then the other people in the grain storage department will also give the silver happily, and they can be regarded as able to give an explanation for this matter. ”

Liu Wan burst into laughter when he heard this, "Brother, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed." That King Zhongshun is an iron rooster, and now he is a dime, and if you let him pay the silver, it is better to expect the people in the grain storage road to give the silver. ”

Liu Yu glared at Liu Wan fiercely and said, "Idiot, don't I know that King Zhongshun is an iron rooster?" I'm asking you to tell him openly, and from now on I have nothing to do with him. If he dares to meddle in the affairs of your household department in the future, you can beat him back openly. ”

Liu Wan only understood when he heard this, Liu Yu asked him to have a showdown with King Zhongshun, and from then on, the well water would not interfere with the river water.

Liu Wan heard this and thought about it, it was also a way, this Zhongshun King is now extremely mediocre, and there is no room for anything else in his eyes except money, and there is no need to have anything to do with him.

Liu Yu hurriedly went after instructing Liu Wan, after all, he still had a mess of business. It was the Military Aircraft Department that dispersed in the morning, and he had to go to the official department to work in the afternoon.

Liu Wan walked around the study a few times after Liu Yu left, and finally gritted his teeth. Directly ordered people to be called to the palace of Zhongshun Wang.

When Liu Wan arrived at the door of the Zhongshun Palace, he saw that the gate of the Zhongshun Palace was closed at this time, and there was not even a person on duty at the door.

Liu Wan was shocked when he saw this, it seems that the king of Zhongshun didn't know where he got the news, and now he is closed doors. It is already clear that it is impossible to get the king of Zhongshun to pay for it now.

But Liu Wan still held on to the hope of what happened, and ordered his servants to knock on the door. But the servant knocked on the door, but there was no sound from inside.

Seeing this situation, Liu Wan glared fiercely at the Zhongshun Palace. From now on, there will be no contact with King Zhongshun.

That night, Liu Wan's house was brightly lit, and the lights were not extinguished all night. Many important officials of the household department and the heads of the grain storage roads kept coming in and out.

And Liu Wan didn't know what method he used, and he collected nearly 2 million silver the next day.

In the next few days, the food near the capital began to skyrocket, and the people were full of complaints. Many of the imperial historians have begun to gear up to participate in the profiteers who hoard the odds.

And in the palace, the emperor also heard about it, and the emperor is now very concerned about the stability of his regime, and when he heard that the food in the capital is unstable, he immediately recruited Xia Shouzhong.

"What the hell is going on, in the capital is a land of hundred goodness, there are such profiteers, how are you investigating?" As soon as the emperor saw Xia Shouzhong, he was furious.

"Long live the anger, the minions have almost checked."

In fact, Xia Shouzhong had already found out about his causes and consequences, but he never dared to report this matter to the emperor.

After all, this involves the king of loyalty, with the feelings of the emperor and the king of loyalty, I am afraid that in the end it will make the emperor embarrassed, if the household can deal with this matter quietly, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds, and save the emperor trouble.

I didn't expect the household department to make such a big move, and even the emperor was alarmed. It seems that Tobe is also in a hurry, and now he is wiping his ass for King Zhongshun.

"Tell me what's going on? Who dares to be so bold? ”

"Long live the lord, this matter was done by the household department, and they bought a large amount of grain in the market, so it caused a shortage of food in the capital, and the price of grain began to rise." Xia Shouzhong has now decided to tell him that the matter of loyalty to the king seems to be impossible to hide, so it is no wonder that he is so.

The emperor asked suspiciously: "What is the household department doing at this time of year, buying so much grain?" I haven't heard of the household department collecting grain recently. ”

Xia Shouzhong secretly glanced at the emperor's face, and then said in a slur manner: "Didn't the emperor decree in the first two months that the grain storage of the household department must be collected by 1.5 million quintals of grain before the fifth day of the sixth month?" They are now just trying to collect this grain, not only collecting grain in the market, but this wind has spread to several prefectures and counties near the capital. ”

The emperor is not a fool, he immediately understood that the grain storage road in the Forbidden City was probably that there was not a grain in the warehouse, and he was forced to be anxious these two times, so he pooled money to buy grain in the market and wanted to give him an explanation.
