"It's very simple, the case of the King of Chu handling the canal project was assisted by Kangcheng, I know that you have just been transferred, but I know very well that the people of the Hu family are very serious about doing things, presumably you have also read those account books, there must be something wrong in the middle, you might as well change it back to the original state and send it to the household department."

In less than a day, the prefect of Cannes urgently sent the excerpt to Beijing.

This fold first arrived in Pei Yu's hands, and after he read it, he felt a little strange in his heart.

That's a good time, isn't it?

In the evening, another case was sent directly to Dali Temple.

Su Huo was stunned directly after reading it, the teacher was stabbed to death?

What made him even more angry was that the teacher was actually tortured to death!

The autopsy results made Su Huo, who had always been calm, almost lose his mind.

However, before he went to meet the emperor, Pei Yu went to the palace first.

The canal project had already been completed, but when Pei Yu mentioned it again, Jiang Yue still frowned.

"Your Majesty, that Hu Yinghao is the prefect who has just transferred to Kangcheng, and the people of the Hu family are careful, presumably he only discovered such a fake account on the way to check the account book."

"Is there an inspection over there?" Jiang Yue felt that if Jiang Yuancheng was too incorruptible, it would be abnormal.

Pei Yu nodded: "The minister has already checked, this is just the tip of the iceberg, the canal project, the treasury allocated 300,000 taels of silver at the beginning, and in the end there were 30,000 taels of silver left, normally speaking, 300,000 taels of silver should not be enough, but the king of Chu can actually leave 30,000 taels of silver." ”

"What does Pei Xiangye want to say?" Jiang Yue finally opened his eyes.

Pei Yu knelt down and replied: "My lord, recently the Marquis of Ping has been assisting the minister to investigate the shortage of military salaries in Ganzhou, and the minister found that some of the silver flowed back to the capital, according to the minister's investigation, not all of it was embezzled by King Ning's people!" ”

"Cheng'er also intervened?" Jiang Yue finally faced up to this matter.

Pei Yu nodded: "The minister thinks that the king of Chu must have intervened, so much military salary Ning Wang can't eat it completely, even if the courtiers who work hard for the canal project, they can't spend it and there is still a surplus, and the minister already has evidence that the king of Chu smelted a batch of official silver during the canal project!" ”

"Why didn't the prime minister say this kind of thing earlier?" Jiang Yue began to suspect that the King of Chu might not have no military power in his hands.

At the beginning, he sent Zhang Ke to Ganzhou, Zhang Ke can get started with Ganzhou's affairs so quickly, ordinary people will never be able to do it!

Unless Zhang Ke has dealt with the internal affairs of Ganzhou in advance!

"The minister couldn't determine where the silver in Ganzhou flowed before, but now it seems that it has filled the vacancy in the canal!"

Pei Yu knew that this fold came too coincidentally, but the king of Chu's was getting more and more inflated.

King Ning's city is far inferior to that of King Chu, and if he wants to ascend the throne, he must first get rid of Jiang Yuancheng.

He is on King Ning's side.

Compared with the scheming emperor, Pei Yu prefers a simpler emperor.

"Isn't that just right?" Although Jiang Yue was angry in his heart, he restrained his anger on his face.

Pei Yu raised his head and looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty! The deficit in Ganzhou is as much as one million taels of silver, and the 300,000 taels of silver for the canal project is not enough to spend, but it will definitely not exceed 400,000 taels of silver! What's more, there are a lot of donations from the government for this project, and the minister's preliminary statistics are also twenty or thirty thousand taels of silver!

King Ning's ministers roughly estimated that they might have embezzled less than 100,000 taels of silver, but where did the other 500,000 spirit silver go! Now it's not clear! The king of Chu took 30,000 taels out and said that it was the rest of the canal project, but what about the rest of the 400,000 taels of silver!

Your Majesty! Think again! The king of Chu has been in charge of finance for so many years, and there is no shortage of silver in his hands! But he had already put his mind on military pay! The army of the Great Qi Dynasty is the foundation of the country! Jiagu Pass is lost, doesn't Your Majesty think it's strange? The army stationed over there is not exactly King Ning's people! ”

Pei Yu didn't say the rest of the words, he just bowed deeply.

King Ning was in charge of the army, and King Chu was in charge of finance, which should have been clearly distinguished.

But the king of Chu began to calculate the loss of Jiagu Pass early, which is to use the dignity of the Great Qi Dynasty to challenge the emperor's bottom line.

Jiagu Pass has always been an easy place to defend and difficult to attack, and now it has been lost once in the hands of Emperor Shunde.

This is destined to be an indelible stain on the history books.

Although it was caused by infighting, this result was connived at by Emperor Shunde.

Jiang Yue is a person, Pei Yu sees it very thoroughly.

He is obviously a ruthless and suspicious king, but he wants to whitewash himself as a benevolent and loving king!

Regardless of whether Jiang Yuancheng did it or not, until now, all this can only be done by him.

After being silent for a long time, Jiang Yue finally gave an order: "You go down first." ”

When Pei Yu came out, he happened to run into Su Huo standing at the door.

Su Huo saluted him and held a letter in his hand.

"Lord Su is in such a hurry to enter the palace, but what's the matter?"

Su Huo looked at Pei Yu, now there is nothing going on in the capital, and he has also entered the palace.

However, he still replied to Pei Yu: "The old dean of the Academy of Asking Heart was stabbed to death!" ”

Pei Yu instantly twisted his eyebrows and glanced at the fold in his hand: "The murderer may be determined at present?" ”

"For the time being, but there are still a few obvious characteristics, and the specific situation still needs to be determined by His Majesty." Su Huo briefly explained, turned his head and walked in.

Pei Yu's heart was heavy, and he always felt like he was being led by the nose.

That night, Su Huo did not leave the palace, and Su Huo did not leave until dawn the next day.

After he left the palace, he went directly to Mr. Cui's house.

Immediately afterwards, Cui Lao, who had never gone out, followed Su Huo in a carriage and rushed to Cannes together.

In the palace of the King of Chu, Jiang Yuancheng turned his head and asked Chaifeng: "Is there any news from Zhang Ke's side?" ”16

"Not yet."

At the same time, in the Cannes barracks.

Zhang Ke never thought that he was actually plotted.

He looked at Qin Zhan in front of him and said, "Lord Qin, you tied me up like this, may I ask what I have done?" ”

"Look at you!" Qin Hunt hated literati, especially scheming literati like Zhang Ke.

The reason why his eldest brother died was because the king of Chu wanted to seize power.

Chi Yu is in a difficult situation now, also because of Zhang Ke's plan to make up for it.

Zhang Ke closed his eyes: it seemed that he couldn't ask anything from Qin Hunt.

It's just that the people of the King of Chu are about to take control of the entire Kangcheng military camp, where did Qin Hunt dare to kidnap him!

In a courtyard in Cannes.

Wen Qingzhu leaned on the soft collapse, looked at the stars in the sky, and asked Chi Yu: "I heard that you have a lot of research on astrology, why don't you come and tell me." ”

Chi Yu couldn't sit still, and he was still not sure in his heart: "Madame is not afraid of Hu Yinghao's backlash?" His kid is notoriously greedy for life and afraid of death, if nothing else, the people of the King of Chu found that Zhang Ke was missing, and they should have sent someone to find him. ”

"Hey, Master Chi, that's not something you should worry about." Wen Qingzhu looked at Chi Yu in a blink of an eye, looked at Chi Yu carefully, his eyebrows were delicate, he changed out of his military uniform, and put on a scholar's robe, which also had an elegant temperament.

It's just that he used to like beauties more or less, why is it so regular today?

Chi Yu didn't speak, and he didn't dare to look at it without squinting.

Wen Qingzhu looked at the beauty on the right hand side with a cigarette, and the pipa was held in his arms, which was particularly intoxicating.

It's just that she specially invited Chi Yu, but he didn't look at it, so he had to wave his hand: "You all go down." ”

"Yes." The beauties withdrew.

Seeing that they were gone, Wen Qingzhu turned his head and looked at Chi Yu with a smile: "Master Chi, now only you and I are left, just ask if there is anything." ”

Chi Yu had been away from the capital for a while, and if he hadn't found the right opportunity to cling to Jiang Yijia, he might still be struggling with his qualifications at the border.

So although he has heard a lot about the current situation in the capital, he doesn't know the specific details very well.

"Is the king of Ning or the king of Chu in the capital big now?"

Wen Qingzhu sneered: "What if the situation is big now, the one who has the last laugh is the winner." ”

"I understand what Madame means, but we always have to take advantage of the situation to get twice the result with half the effort." Chi Yu has no choice now, so he can only stand on Wen Qingzhu's side.

As for Jiang Yijia, he asked for help many times but did not respond, presumably being stopped by King Ning's people.

In this way, he is also a person who has been abandoned.

Wen Qingzhu continued to look up at the sky: "Because of the situation, I also understand, so I came to Cannes, it seems that fate does not deceive me." ”

"Fate?" Chi Yu's eyes were suspicious, could it be that someone said something to her?

In his mind, this kind of thing is nonsense.

However, Wen Qingzhu asked, and he happened to understand something, so he replied: "Most of the fortune tellers are magic sticks, Madame doesn't have to care, and the really powerful masters are easy to be born." ”

Hearing his words, Wen Qingzhu sighed: "But the powerful master is not born, but has been killed." ”

"What do you mean, Madame?"

"Deng Yezhou, have you heard of it?" Wen Qingzhu retracted his gaze and looked at Chi Yu.

When King Shou's power was at one point, the Chi family was very beautiful, and that Chi Yu was a petty official, and he happened to mix in Si Tiantai.

Chi Yu instantly became serious: "Madame came to Cannes to find the old dean, is it because of Lord Deng's matter?" ”

"Or what do you think? Lord Deng's prophecy, I'm really curious, and Deng Yezhou's matter also determines whether I want to let the people of the Deng family come out. ”

"Is there anyone in the Deng family still alive?" Chi Yu was no longer shocked at this time.

He has been in Si Tiantai, although everyone usually does not dare to mention Deng Yezhou's affairs, but he can see that everyone in Si Tiantai respects Deng Yezhou very much.

As far as he knew, Deng Yezhou had perfected many of Si Tiantai's algorithms.

And his prophecies are actually being fulfilled one by one.

This is what Chi Yu admires and feels terrible.

If he stood in the perspective of Emperor Shunde, he would not hesitate to kill him.

However, the timing of Emperor Shunde's accession to the throne was not very good, and if he used killing to deal with things, he was afraid that things would be reversed.

Therefore, for the Deng family, Emperor Shunde is all slowly drawing.

This also gives those who hold power the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

How many famous families were destroyed and disappeared in those conspiracies.

"Is Chi-sama surprised? When I mentioned Deng Yezhou, I was naturally thinking about whether to use the descendants of the Deng family. Wen Qingzhu didn't mind telling him either.

After all, Chi Yu is also a rare talent.

Some small problems with coveting beauty are not a big problem.

"Madame, don't hesitate, believe me, you have to use him!" It was the first time for Chi Yu to be so strong in Wen Qingzhu.

Wen Qingzhu simply sat up, and he was also interested: "Then you say that you have to use his reasons." ”
