Chapter 367: Withholding Food
As soon as she walked through the door, she was stopped by two guards.
"Where did you come from! How dare you trespass into the granary! ”
"Where is the official now?" Mu Qingge raised his chin slightly, shook the folding fan in his hand, and smiled calmly on his face.
"What are you looking for us?"
"Of course, it's for the sake of approving food for the refugees in the northwest." Mu Qingge shook his fan.
Ever since she knew about this guy's official qualities, the apprehension in her heart disappeared all of a sudden.
"Go out, the grain has already been transported." When the two guards heard this, they couldn't help but start driving people away.
It's really funny, a little guard of a nine-rank official, the official frame is actually bigger than many big people in the court!
"Transported?" With a cold coldness in his eyes, Mu Qingge bypassed the two guards who were in the way and walked straight to the house.
"Who is it, so daring, to trespass on the granary?" Probably because the noise outside was so noisy, a man in his forties and fifties came out of the inner room, with a mustache on his chin and a nightgown.
Mu Qingge looked at the man's appearance, and a sense of disgust arose, and she shook off the hands of the two guards unhappily, "Let go of me." ”
"Lord Hu, this man trespassed into the granary, saying that it was for the food of the refugees in the northwest." One of the guards arched his hand.
"Food for the refugees in the Northwest." Master Hu repeated it unsatisfactorily, and then looked at the person in front of him with disdain, "That batch of grain has already been allocated, and this guy is probably to cheat the grain, tie him up and throw him out." ”
Cheat! This guy actually dares to slander her and cheat!
Mu Qingge felt that he was going to be smoked by the seven orifices of anger.
"I'm here to fight for food for the refugees!" She finally couldn't hold back the anger in her heart, and slapped away the guard who came to tie up with the rope with a palm.
"Great, my lord, this guy is here to make trouble!" The guard clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
What kind of broken constitution is this? was slapped and vomited blood directly, is a weak rookie like this really suitable to be a guard?
"You, what the hell are you going to do! This is at the feet of the Son of Heaven! Lord Hu probably didn't expect this person to seriously injure one of his guards with just one palm, and immediately panicked.
"Do you know that this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven?" Mu Qingge sneered, "Then you still dare to withhold the refugees' food?" ”
When she was leaning on the eaves and eavesdropping, she more or less heard some people's discussions.
The grain granted by the imperial court this time was sent directly from the granary, and it did not go through many officials.
From this, it can be concluded that this grain was deducted from the time it was shipped!
"How can Master Ben ......" Lord Hu blushed in defense, and just halfway through speaking, he reacted as if he suddenly realized, "What kind of thing are you hairy boy?" How dare you question Lord Ben? ”
Ho, no wonder the guards here are so invincible, it turns out that the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, there is an indispensable leader, and the people below are of course also nervous.
"I am a second-grade Guanglu doctor, and I am qualified to be qualified
Suspicious of you? Mu Qingge flicked the folding fan, his face was grim.
"Hahaha!"
Unexpectedly, Master Hu was not afraid to laugh back, brushed his beard, and showed a sneer on his face, "Doctor Guanglu? Who doesn't know that this is a nominal official position, and there is no exclusive official order, you say yes, do you want to believe you? ”
Mu Qingge was angry for a while, not to mention, after she became this Guanglu doctor, the court only issued her an official robe, looking at the size it still didn't fit, and there were no official seals and official orders, what should she use to prove her identity?
"This Lord Hu, if I remember correctly, you are the above, but Xing Xuan, the waiter of the Sipin Household Department?" Mu Qingge took a deep breath and said in a relaxed tone, "That Lord Xing and I have some personal relations, if you don't believe it, why don't I let him come to you in person?" ”
When she said this, she actually didn't know the bottom of her heart, she and Xing Xuan were just two-sided, and I didn't know if Xing Xuan would sell her favor, but it shouldn't be a problem to take it out and fool this so-called Lord Hu.
"Oh, you still know Lord Xing?" Master Hu squinted his eyes, and his eyes shimmered faintly.
"No, I have a close personal relationship with his old man." Mu Qingge raised his chin slightly, catching the expression of the man opposite at any time.
A sarcastic smile suddenly burst into Master Hu's face.
This hairy boy really likes to talk nonsense, if he really has a close personal relationship with Lord Xing, how could he not know that this batch of grain has already been secretly dropped by Lord Xing?
"Liu Yue, get this impostor out of the way."
When the guard heard the order, he didn't dare to move, he looked at the brother who fell to the ground over there, and looked at Master Hu with an embarrassed expression.
This person is highly powerful, even if he really fights the other party, I am afraid he is not an opponent.
"What are you still rubbing! Get this kid out of here! Master Hu frowned deeply, he was about to go to bed, but he encountered such an unlucky thing.
"Looks like you're not going to settle the matter of withholding food?" Mu Qingge recalled all the things he saw in the inn during the day, and then looked at this Yu Si, he was obviously just a small Jiupin official, but he was even more extravagant than some big families.
Master Hu stared directly at the person in front of him, thinking that this man was sent by the mob to beg for food.
"Lord Ben only listens to the orders of the Son of Heaven, and no one else can speak!"
Wouldn't it be ridiculous if he gave in to this little trick?
Lord Hu clapped his hands and called all the soldiers guarding the grain and grass over, "Drive out this kid sent by the mob to Lord Ben!" ”
Mu Qingge had just put on a defensive posture and was about to entangle with these soldiers, when he heard a cold voice behind him.
"Isn't it easy for this king to speak?"
For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to the man at the door.
I saw that the man's body exuded a kingly aura, and just one sentence shocked everyone to speak.
"King, lord!"
Lord Hu looked at it, and the expression on his face suddenly couldn't hold back
, and fell directly to the ground.
"The villain knocks on the prince, the prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
The leaders had already knelt down and kowtowed, and the soldiers in the front hall had all fallen to the ground.
For a while, the sound of kowtowing in the lobby was endless.
"Lord Wang, why are you ......" Mu Qingge was also a little surprised, didn't Yin Nanchen go back to the house for treatment? Why did you come here again...... Could it be that he has been stalking himself?
"Master Hu, what's going on with this disaster victim's food ration?" Yin Nanchen's face was very gloomy, and he didn't answer Mu Qingge's words, but walked straight in front of Master Hu.
"Who told you to stand up?"
Master Hu was about to stand up and answer, but was reprimanded by a loud shout.
"Yes, it's the villain who is guilty...... Lord Hu said tremblingly, this is full of capital, who doesn't know this Yin Wangye?
"Back to the prince, this batch of grain has been transported to the northwest."
"Grain to the northwest? Master Hu, you really dare to say it. Yin Nanchen lowered his head and looked condescendingly at the little old man who was kneeling on the ground trembling, and his voice was a little colder.
"The group of people who transported the grain have been caught at the door by this king, do you want them to come and tell you in person, whether they are transporting grain or stones?"
Lord Hu's body trembled even more, and he didn't dare to raise his head at all, so he could only kowtow over and over again, "Lord Wang, Lord Wang, the villain doesn't know anything about this!" Please spare the villain! ”
"Unaware?" The anger in Yin Nanchen's eyes deepened.
"As the official in charge of the righteous warehouse, you actually said that you didn't know that the grain transported out turned into stone, what kind of crime should you be guilty of!"
Yin Nanchen's voice was loud, and the hall was very quiet for a while, and even an embroidery needle falling on the ground could be heard clearly.
"Tiny ...... The villain is guilty! Master Hu had already stammered when he spoke, he raised his head slightly and glanced at Mu Qingge.
What is this man's identity? can actually call the prince!
No...... Wrong! It was clear that the prince had found out about him, so he sent this man to investigate first!
"This king doesn't want to listen to you talk about it here, corruption is a big crime, this king is holding the sword of Shang Fang, you can cut it first and then play, if you can name other people who are involved in this matter, this king can spare you death."
After speaking, Yin Nanchen pulled out the long sword from his side and pressed it against Lord Hu's neck.
Looking at the sword glowing with cold light, Lord Hu's cold sweat came straight out of his forehead, "Lord Wang, this matter is all arranged by Xing Xuan, the servant of the household department, and has nothing to do with the villain!" ”
So far, he can only confess his immediate boss.
If you want to talk about this load of grain, he only made a lot of money, but that Xing Xuan made a lot of money from it.
"What a tobe squire." Yin Nanchen put away his sword, his eyes full of anger.
He has been secretly following Mu Qingge today, and he almost understands the cause and effect of the matter, as long as he is there, he will not allow corruption and bribery in this court, and officials protect each other!
"Cold Shadow."
"Yes." Leng Ying, dressed in black, walked out of the dark night.
"You go and send someone to thoroughly investigate the corruption of the household servant after he takes office, and report it directly to the emperor."
"My subordinates understand." Immediately after, the cold shadow disappeared into the night.
Eh, why did Leng Ying come over too?
Mu Qingge didn't understand, could it be that he had been followed early in the morning, but he didn't notice it?
Seeing that the prince turned his attention to the household servant, Lord Hu could be regarded as relieved.
"Master Hu, do you think your sins can be forgiven?" Yin Nanchen looked at him secretly rejoicing, and couldn't help but sneer.
"Lord Wang, the villain doesn't dare." Lord Hu knelt on the ground and replied tremblingly.
Who doesn't know that this prince has always been upright and upright, and he hates corruption the most?
