Li Shiyu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The lower official is just concerned about the noble body of Lord Qincha, and the lower official will take the adult to inspect." ”

Li Shiyu asked people to carry his sedan chair out and asked Yang Lian to sit on it. Yang Lian waved his hand in annoyance and said, "Walk." ”

Li Shiyu had no choice but to lead Yang Lian out first. After leaving the yamen to the right, I came to the nursing home first.

The almshouse, which was used to adopt widows, widows, and lonely poor and beggars, was now crowded with people and noisy. Li Shiyu asked the officials to come forward and finally clear a way, Yang Lian entered inside, as long as there were grass piled up on top of the bed, some people shivered with cold, and their clothes were thin under the bedding to keep warm.

Yang Lian asked, "Lord Fuzun, why didn't these people distribute cotton clothes?" He was still wearing a single coat. ”

Li Shiyu sweated profusely and said: "The subordinate has already ordered it to go down, maybe the subordinate has not finished sending it yet, please let the subordinate go to investigate." ”

Yang Lian shook his head: "Why bother with the Mansion Zun, let's let Xu Yan ask." Let's move on to other places. ”

Li Shiyu couldn't, so he had to lead a group to Huimin Pharmacy, only to see that there were a large number of patients in the pharmacy, many of whom were "sheny" in pain, and Yang Lian asked the doctors inside, and the doctors said that there was a lack of medicines, and there were too few doctors to treat all the wounded.

Yang Lian asked Li Shiyu: "Hasn't the imperial court already pulled out the special disaster relief funds?" Why is there a shortage of medicines in Huimin Pharmacy. ”

Li Shiyu said: "No, the imperial court wants us to save ourselves, and we didn't pull out the disaster relief funds, and the lower officials don't know that there is such a thing." ”

Yang Lian said to Liu Siyu: "This matter is going to be troublesome." ”

Liu Siyu nodded and said, "Don't worry, Lord Qincha, the little one will find out clearly." ”

In this history, Wei Zhongxian did not gather ministers who were at odds with the Donglin Party to form the so-called eunuch party, which only managed the affairs of the inner court, so Yang Lian did not regard Wei Zhongxian as a major harm to the Ming Dynasty. Although he had always disliked the inner prison before, now he gradually felt that these people were not hateful, but a little pitiful.

The group continued to the place where the city wall had collapsed, only to see some homeless people wandering around the base of the city wall in despair, and several shacks were built in a haphazard manner.

Yang Lian asked with anger on his face, "Li Fuzun, is this your disaster relief measure?" ”

Li Shiyu was so frightened that he knelt on the ground: "Lord Qincha, the lower official has already ordered to go down, it must be that the people below are not doing what they are told, please allow the lower official to call them to inquire." ”

Yang Lian glanced at him and said, "Then ask here." ”

Li Shiyu stubbornly called the head of the official team and asked, "Didn't you say that you want to build temporary accommodation for the victims?" Why are there only a few shacks? ”

The team leader glanced at Yang Lian, but didn't dare to make a sound. Xu Xianchun's Qianhu stepped forward with a kick, kicked the squad leader to the ground, drew out the embroidered spring knife, and said on his neck: "You are not small, Shangguan asked you how dare not answer." ”

The team leader shouted in fright: "The adults only get a hundred yuan, how many shacks can they build?" The small ones are not greedy for a dollar. Then he kowtowed again and again.

Yang Lian looked at Li Shiyu and said, "In a huge place, a hundred yuan is really a big deal?" I remember that the Divine Decree didn't say that! ”

Li Shiyu immediately knelt down and said, "Lord Qincha, the lower official is at fault, please punish him." ”

Yang Lian sneered: "Wrong? Hehe, you really know how to speak, get up, and then you will know if you are guilty or wrong. ”

After a while, Xu Xianchun's subordinates sent news that the distribution of winter clothing had been completed a day earlier, and a total of 150 cotton clothes were distributed within the scope of their investigation, accounting for less than 10% of the total number of victims.

Liu Siyu also quickly reported that among the disaster relief funds issued by the imperial court, Yangzhou had a total of 3,000 yuan of medical silver, 5,000 yuan of cotton clothing silver, and a total of 25,000 yuan of living silver for the victims. All of them have been distributed to Yangzhou Prefecture by the Political Secretary {Province}.

Li Shiyu was so devastated that he knelt on the ground and shouted: "Lord Qincha, there are not so many, the Secretary has only issued a total of 18,000 yuan, please check it out to Lord Qincha." ”

Yang Lian sneered: "Eighteen thousand yuan, it's enough for you to buy medicine, you can also send more cotton clothes, did you use 1,800 yuan?" ”

Li Shiyu bowed his head and said nothing, Yang Lian said: "Tie up this thief, please take out Shang Fang's sword and cut him." ”

Li Shiyu shouted: "I'm a fourth-grade official, you can't kill me." ”

Yang Lian smiled: "Oh, it turns out that you are a fourth-grade official, I'm really embarrassed, my sword can cut the third-grade official, unless you are a second-grade official, otherwise you can't escape this sword." ”

Li Shiyu's face was like ashes, and he didn't even bother to shout injustice. Jinyiwei stepped forward and kicked him over, took his black yarn, stripped off his official uniform, and cut off his head on the ground with a knife.

The Yangzhou government officials who were traveling with him were a little frightened. Yang Lian said: "Liu Tongzhi, you temporarily take the prefect's position, manage the relief of the victims, Ben Qincha will also inspect all places, half a month later, I will go back to Yangzhou, if there is anything I am not satisfied with, he is your example." If you do a good job, I will make you the prefect. ”

Tongzhi Liu Qiancheng was happy and worried, happy that Lord Qincha gave him a chance to correct his and his subordinates' previous mistakes, but worried that the money pulled from above was insufficient, and he didn't dare to ask for it from above, which was a troublesome thing.

Yang Lian's next words made him feel at ease: "Relief will be given according to the funds drawn above, and if it is not enough, it will be taken from the government to make up for it, and Ben Qin will send to the Wenbu Political Secretary, and the arrears will be pulled down." ”

After the order, Yang Lian went directly to Nanjing to investigate the discrepancy in the funds drawn.

When he arrived in Nanjing, someone reported to Wang Zhi for a meeting. He is the younger brother of Wang Qia, the right of the imperial history, and is a typical Donglin Party member. He was originally the supervisor of the Baoyuan Bureau of Nanzhili, but since the issuance of the new coin, the Baoyuan Bureau has stopped minting coins, and has not arranged a new job for them, and has been under inspection by the household department in Nanjing.

The household department merged with the Nanjing household department, and sent four people to check the bank accounts of the Dingyuan Bureau. The vast bills, these people put here can be said to be completely useless, after more than a year of checking, it took less than one percent to check.

Wang Zhi and others had no hope of being promoted, so they could only accompany the household officials to settle the accounts every day, saying that it was impossible to have no grievances. But what can be done about it?

Wang Zhi came in and said directly: "Wen Ru, you have done too much in Yangzhou, Li Shiyu is also my Donglin party, or a fourth-grade official, you directly beheaded him, and others are still my Donglin infighting." ”

Yang Lian didn't answer, first let people serve tea, and then said: "Brother Wenqing, Li Shiyu received 18,000 yuan from above, but only 800 yuan was used for disaster relief, and the rest was privately divided, do you think such a person should not be beheaded?" ”

All kinds of requests, thank you for your support! Happy New Year! Good luck!
