Gao Yue picked up the pen, circled the official book, and said to Lu Qi, "There are 3,000 pigs transcribed in this official book. Each head has to pay the same forage money every year, and the pig farmer also has to pay eight times a month. ”

Gao Yue is already very familiar with this number game, pig raising is similar to managing the army, and they both have the routine of relying on "fictitious" for personal gain.

It's okay, it's very simple to find a breakthrough, Lu Qi asked, "There are 3,000 pigs in the book, and now there are 1,714 pigs, where are the others?" ”

Zhuang Tou and the Inspector trembled violently, and replied hesitantly that they had probably died of illness.

"Since you died of illness, why don't you make up for it, why don't you report it, why do you still receive money according to the amount of 3,000 heads?"

"Report, report....... The petition should be in the inner village and has not yet received a reply. ”

Lu Qi sneered, and said that after the two servants returned to Beijing, they would naturally check with the envoy of the Neizhuang Mansion, but ......

Then he moved his gaze to Gao Yue, and Gao Yue said that in the past few years, the account books submitted by the envoys of the village in Honglushui were all 3,000 pigs.

"Every year, it's 3,000 heads, not more than one, not less than one, and now it is said that nearly half of them are sick and dead, which is simply ridiculous, and the money that is falsely reported must have been embezzled by the head of the village and the inspector."

As soon as they heard the assassin say this, the people in the official village below fell to the ground in horror.

But Lu Qi is not over, there will be two thieves and thieves leading a pig to come in, everyone looks kind, this pig is too miserable, black and thin, with extremely long hair, almost like a dog, no wonder it can flexibly drill out of the fence, "This pig was raised like this by you, can you not be so hungry that you break the fence to eat the people's crops?" Where did all the forage money you receive every year go? ”

Lu Zhen also shook his head, and while writing, he thought, "It's really too much." ”

Then the people of Guanzhuang apologized one after another, but insisted that they had not seen the money they had received and had not used it.

At this time, Gao Yue carefully checked the book again, and said to Lu Qi, "According to what is written in the book, Honglu Shui Guanzhuang spent 240 yuan to buy four women under Hongnong City to dedicate to the palace last month. Then Lu Zhen also came over to take a look, and reported the townships and names of the four women one by one and recorded them.

Buying beautiful girls from the people and sending them to the palace is also the task of the official mansions everywhere, and there seems to be nothing wrong with it at first glance, but Lu Qi is more serious, and posts to command the officials, "Go to the inquest quickly." ”

This inquest was not tightened, and about an hour later, the official took two women to the court: it is obvious that although the names of these two young women appeared in the book of the "city palace maids" of the official village, they did not enter the palace at all, and stayed in Hongnong City in a dignified manner, one of whom had just married.

At this time, the head of the village and the inspector almost had a dead expression.

But the matter is not over, Gao Yue soon hooked up the problem again, just after Li Shi ascended the throne, Honglu Shui Guanzhuang also asked the emperor to use the treasury money to help repay the debts owed by the village for many years, a total of more than 7,000 yuan.

"The pigs are not well raised, and people are not sent to the palace, but they still ask for the exemption of 7,000 yuan of debts according to the imaginary number in the account book, quickly explain, how did you owe these 7,000 yuan!" Lu Qi was furious.

Zhuang Tou and several inspectors pretended to be dead and refused to answer, but just bowed their heads and begged for mercy.

But this couldn't be difficult for Lu Qi at all, and soon the bad people in the state capital came to serve with a long stick, "Zhuang Tou will beat the spine sore cane fifty times, and the inspector will beat the spine sore cane thirty times, and beat it with heart!" ”

The screams shook the beams of the house, and the sticks fell high and fell like butterflies, with splashes of blood and dust. Gao Yue and Lu Zhen soon saw that the two Guanzhuang inspectors were covered in blood and flesh, their faces were as bleak as white paper, and they swallowed their breath with fluttering, and their bodies were dragged out and thrown under the hall, which was very terrifying.

In the end, Zhuang Tou couldn't resist the torture, and was frightened by the two inspectors who were beaten to death, so he raised his hand and said forgiveness, "May it be white, may it be white!" ”

He confessed one by one: This account was made by Wang Weirong in the inner mansion in advance, and distributed to them, and they just forged a document book according to it.

After the explanation, Lu Zhen's pleadings were also written, and Lu Qi asked this group of people from the official village to put their fingerprints on them one by one, and even the two inspectors who were killed by the rod were also taken care of.

Lu Qi finally laughed hideously now, the goal has been achieved! Then he asked Gao Yue and Lu Zhen to calculate how many false accounts there were, and this kind of thing was to be done by the people of Yushitai themselves.

The earliest calculation results are of course amazing, Honglu Shui Guanzhuang alone, in the past three years, there are 13,700 yuan of money missing.

This is just a place under the jurisdiction of the envoy of the inner village, and the official village of the entire Jingzhao Mansion and Henan Mansion does not know how much it is, and the scale is larger than that of Yuzhou, so it is conceivable that Wang Weirong has amassed an unknown amount of money.

"Where does this money go?" Lu Qi seems to have to dig deeper, and he is trying to get more hands on it.

At this time, Gao Yue suddenly stood up and whispered to Lu Qi, "Where do these people from Guanzhuang know where to go? Now that the ironclad evidence of Wang Weirong's greed has been grasped, the rest of the decision is of course made by the Holy Lord. ”

When Lu Qi heard this, he nodded frequently, thinking that what Gao Yue said was right, "The matter of going back to Beijing for impeachment will be handed over to the two servants." ”

Gao Yue replied, "We are only responsible for impeachment, but the inner affection is, of course, to make the king write a recital and present it to the Holy Lord. ”

The meaning of this is "profit sharing": Lu Zhenren and I are soft-spoken, but the little supervision of the imperial history is just fame capital; And the bulk of the meritorious deeds in this is, of course, owned by Lu Yuanjun, so the whole incident is up to you. Wouldn't it be beautiful that you, me, and the Lord might take what we need?

Lu Qi smiled happily, which made his face look even more ugly and terrifying, it was simply a dynamic flying sand......

Ten days later, Gao Yue and Lu Zhen returned to Beijing and went to Pude Station in Huazhou.

In the post hall, I saw Cui Youfu, a member of the Chinese Scholars' House, leading a horse and standing in the courtyard.

Gao Yue and Lu Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to salute and asked why Cui Sheren was here?

Cui Youfu was unfazed and confessed to them: "I was impeached and degraded by Chang Xiang, and I was originally going to Chaozhou to be an assassin, but later the Holy Lord was magnanimous and moved me to take up the post of Shaoyin of Henan Prefecture." ”

I'm going, I actually want to depose Cui Youfu and go to Chaozhou to raise crocodiles, this Chang Gon is too ruthless, right?

And since Cui Youfu was demoted to Henan Shaoyin, he would naturally walk on the post road from Chang'an to Luoyang, and only then did he meet them when they returned to Beijing.

"Could it be because of the funeral of Emperor Daxing?" When Gao Yue was still in Jingzhou, he had a premonition that Chang Gon would not give up.

"Yi Song guessed correctly, but I often count my crimes, but there is more than this."

Next, Cui Youfu talked to the two of them, and Gao Yue knew the ins and outs of the matter:

It turned out that before the death of Daizong, Longyou Jiedu made Zhu Zhu to offer auspicious rui to Daizong, this auspicious rui, symbolizing the country's tranquility and political clarity, in fact, it was to pat the emperor's fart, Zhu Zhu's auspicious rui is "cat and mouse with milk without harm", he also did not know where to find a lactating female cat, both to feed his own cubs, and to feed a few mouse cubs.

Daizong was very happy when he heard it, and my kindness not only touched the people, but also was born by animals.

Chang Gon immediately led hundreds of officials to celebrate, but Cui Youfu was sparse and fiercely refuted this auspiciousness.
