In the middle of the night, Lin Su sat in the study.

Spread out the letter paper, the beautiful words on it came from a kind of Qianrou.

She rushed to understand the state according to Lin Su's arrangement.

Growing up in the northwest since childhood, Chong Qianrou still knows some of the local conditions.

"This year, the amount of salt is abundant, and there has been no famine reported by the government, and the visit found that the salt merchants are also paying taxes normally, it must be that the salt officials are corrupt and bent the law, deliberately deceive the imperial court, and refuse to hand over to the state treasury, and the local salt merchants have a non-caring attitude towards the war, and it is difficult to raise food and wages."

What was written on the letterhead was exactly what Lin Su was worried about.

"These corrupt officials and corrupt officials!"

After reading the letter, Lin Su hammered the table hard.

The state treasury is empty, and the food and salary are insufficient, which is a taboo for raising troops.

If there is no military pay, the soldiers will naturally refuse to go to the front.

"Childe, you have the holy will now, why don't you report this matter to the court, and when the time comes, you will punish the corrupt officials and confiscate the assets, won't you have food?"

Hongni Dress, who was sitting on the side, looked at Lin Su's angry appearance and spoke.

"The court is corrupt and mediocre, how can I bring down those corrupt officials with this letter alone, even if it is a thorough investigation, it is impossible to find out the intertwined officials in a few months, and the other party is sure that I don't have this time, so I dare to be so arrogant."

Lin Su squinted his eyes, relying on his strength alone, he was lacking in skills.

Even with the support of the Holy Beings, he could not do whatever he wanted.

In particular, if corruption is detected, it is a serious crime, and the other party must try his best to cover it up.

"Here in the slave family, there is still some surplus, if it is called, the sisters can also help, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, although it is a drop in the bucket, but it can also be an emergency."

Hongnishang looked at Lin Su with a sad face, and hurriedly said.

For the sake of anti-gold, for Lin Su, she is willing to scatter all her family wealth.

"It's not necessary, hundreds of thousands of vehicles are what you have, but for salt merchants, it's a drop in the bucket, these rich guys are going to have some blood at this time."

Lin Su shook his head.

The household is controlled by the lord and the faction, so he can only directly target the foundation.

This salt merchant is comparable to the existence of drug dealers in the Northern Song Dynasty.

After all, whoever you are, you have to eat salt.

Jiezhou was the main salt producing area of the Northern Song Dynasty, and those who could sell salt there had their own power in the court.

It is almost impossible to uproot.

But what to do, Lin Su couldn't think of a good way for the time being.

can only let Chong Qianrou search the local area, find an opportunity, and raise money by herself.

"Report!"

While the two were talking, a report came from outside the door.

Immediately after, Guan Suo and Qin Feng walked in.

"How's it going?"

Lin Su looked at the two, they should have gained something from this trip.

"Back to the county duke, the Divine Guard Army has 50,000 soldiers, stationed in Longde Mansion, and has never moved, what I saw with my own eyes is indeed true!"

"County Prince, the Dragon Guard Army is also stationed with 50,000 soldiers, stationed in Zhending, I have inspected several times, but there is indeed no action."

The two of them were ordered to check the movements of the Divine Guard and the Dragon Guard.

Although the DPRK reported to the central government, it was the same, but Lin Su did not believe it.

"Looks like they're still hesitating."

Lin Su nodded, and the two retreated.

Shenwei and Longwei are the two strong teams of the Guards Division, and they are also the biggest reliance of Song Huizong.

Now that the news of Song Huizong's house arrest has been reported, there has been no movement, and it seems that they also know that the matter is serious.

"Will they know the times and dare not rebel?"

Red Dress asked curiously.

"Do you know what they will gain if they can help restore Song Huizong? In the face of huge interests, human nature is just Er'er, the reason why it does not move is that I have not found the right time to hold the two important towns on the left and right of Bianliang, if it moves, it will be a change of dynasty. ”

Lin Su shook his head.

The benefits of helping the old emperor to restore have blinded everyone.

They can't just ignore it, they wait.

"It's impossible for the new emperor to let them come back to Bianliang, what can they do? If it is a strong attack, 100,000 soldiers and horses will not be enough to break the city. ”

Red Dress thought about it for a moment.

She couldn't find a good way either.

The other party should be the same as her.

"Although I don't know what will happen, they will definitely not be able to sleep, because the new emperor will soon be going to use a knife on them."

Song Qinzong, who put Song Huizong under house arrest, will definitely not let the two tigers lie by his side.

During this period of contact with him, Lin Su became more and more certain that he was not as columbic as he was said in history.

At least, it seems that he attaches great importance to the throne now.

One is to save his life, and the other is to be for his ambition.

"Sir!"

Just as the two of them were still analyzing the recent situation, the butler's voice came from outside the door.

"What's wrong?"

It was night, and he was looking for what he was doing.

"Master, someone from the palace said he wanted to see you."

The housekeeper's words made Lin Su stunned.

It's so late, could it be that Zhao Yingluo is looking for herself.

During this time, she has always accompanied Song Huizong and has never been to the Lin Mansion.

Find yourself in the middle of the night, what's the matter.

"Please come in!"

Lin Su nodded, and after a while, a little eunuch walked in quickly.

"The minion has seen the founding county duke!"

The little eunuch is not very old, and he looks like a newcomer in the palace.

"My father-in-law came to visit late at night, I don't know what happened?"

Lin Su asked curiously.

Red Dress had already taken refuge in the inner room, and he was the only one in the study.

"Founding Prince, Holy Lord...... Summoning you to enter the palace immediately, but don't go through the palace gate...... Follow the slave into the palace through the side door. ”

The little eunuch's words made Lin Su stunned.

The imperial city is divided into several gates, and there is a special one for the eunuchs in the palace.

Such a mysterious command made Lin Su even more curious.

So he hurriedly got up, followed the little eunuch, and walked out of the Lin Mansion through the side door.

Obviously, Song Qinzong just didn't want others to know about Lin Su's entry into the palace.

The little eunuch was sent all the way to the side gate of the imperial city, and after sparing a big circle, he came to the imperial study.

Lin Su walked into the room and finally saw Song Qinzong.

"Lin Aiqing, you're finally here!"

Seeing Lin Su, Song Qinzong hurriedly walked over.

He looked anxious and flustered.

"Holy Lord, why are you so worried?"

Lin Su was curious, but this mysterious Song Qinzong handed him a letter.

"The Kingdom of Jin is going to send a mission?"

Looking at the letter, Lin Su frowned slightly.

The war between the two sides has not yet ended, and what is the purpose of sending an embassy at this time to negotiate?

Moreover, the other side also asked to be escorted by 10,000 soldiers and horses.

This is clearly a conspiracy.

But what can 10,000 gold soldiers do?

"Lin Aiqing, you say, will they support the Emperor?"

Song Qinzong's words made Lin Su suddenly show a sneer.

It turned out that there was also this scene.

"Holy Lord, the soldiers will come to block the water and cover the earth, since the other party is coming, then let them come."

Lin Su's words made Song Qinzong stunned.

How did he seem to know something.
