Chapter 378: Re-investigation of the case
That's impossible......
The people couldn't believe what they saw, but the soft ground beneath their feet, and the grain fields that could be inserted into three fingers with the touch of a finger, told them that the land had been reclaimed. Just sow the wheat seed and then water it to complete the grain field.
"Is this a god turning stones into gold?"
"We won't dream anymoreβ"
Exclamations rang out one after another.
"Everyone, don't shout, what you see is true! It's not a fairy trick, and it's not a little bit of gold. Didn't everyone see it two days ago, knives fell from the sky, and there was thunder and lightning.
Let me tell you, this is our Chuzhou Town military formation to reclaim farmland for everyone? This method was thought up by our Lord Lu, and I heard that this military formation rang out with 10,000 taels of gold. In order to allow everyone to eat in the New Year, the imperial court spent a lot of money to use the military array to open up the wasteland for everyone.
Everyone wants to be grateful, if you want to be grateful, you will be grateful to the court, grateful to the emperor's grace, and grateful to Lord Lu. Everyone is now pricking up their ears and listening, the wheat seeds have been distributed to everyone, and whether everyone eats white noodles or the northwest wind for this winter is in everyone's hands.
Why are you still stunned? Sow seeds!"
"Whew-"
If you can see a spectacular scene from a bird's-eye view of the sky, the black and oppressive people frantically poured into the grain fields from the surroundings of the thousands of miles of grain fields in Chuzhou. The boundless tide poured into the grain fields of Chuzhou.
The speed of sowing seeds is the fastest of the three steps of cultivation, and you only need to grasp the wheat seeds and scatter them vigorously. Generally speaking, ploughing takes two months and a month for watering in the spring, but sowing takes only four or five days to dry.
In the era of sowing seeds for the whole people, it seems to have fallen into madness, and there is only one word in everyone's mind, sowing seeds. Whether there is a harvest or not, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven.
Time passed little by little, and under the work of the whole people day and night, the wheat seeds were finally sprinkled before the arrival of that drizzle that seemed to be a gift.
This rain is not too big and not too small, just right. That is, the spilled wheat seeds will not be washed away, and the soil will be completely moistened, and the wheat seeds will be buried in the soil to wait for germination.
This rain finally suppressed Lu Sheng's hanging heart. The ban on the eight gates was withdrawn, and the exchanges between Chuzhou and the outside world were unimpeded again. In order to survive this crisis, Lu Sheng gave almost everything.
What is left for Chuzhou now is to try his best to survive until the grain that has just been planted is ripe and harvested again.
The war with the grain merchants is still going on, and it seems that the grain merchants have made up their minds and will fight the Taishou Mansion to the end no matter what. Lu Sheng has already handed over these things to He Xingzhi.
After a month's delay, Lu Sheng once again focused all his energy on tracking down the official food case, and the mastermind behind the locust plague.
In the Xuantianfu conference room, six high-level leaders gathered.
"You can see that everyone has worked very hard this month, and you have lost a lot of weight. However, our task is far from complete.
The emperor issued an order that the initiator of this locust plague must be found out, and the bastard who stole and sold official food must also be found. The case has been dragging on for a month. We don't have much time left. β
Lu Jian and the others also heard the eagerness in Lu Sheng's tone, and sat up straight one by one and looked at Lu Sheng quietly.
"My lord, the officials of the grain road have all been poisoned by others, and although we all know that this case is urgent, all our clues have been cut off except for the clueless name of the ghost owner. The spider said hesitantly, the case is tricky and clueless, this is an objective fact.
"It is true that the officials of the grain road have been poisoned, but this has given us a new direction. Lu Sheng gently closed the file in front of him and propped up his chin.
"The first is Xiao Cinian, one of the deputy commanders of the city defense army, who tried to provoke the chaos of the people, and said to the official on his deathbed to say hello to me on behalf of the ghost owner.
Xiao Cinian is not a small person, he is the thirty-sixth deputy commander of the Chuzhou City Defense Army, how can he be regarded as a six-rank general, right?
Although it seems that he chose to commit suicide because the conspiracy was revealed, in fact, he was ready to die from the moment he provoked the incident.
Can a six-rank military general sacrifice his life to provoke trouble, can the person behind it be small? In addition, poisoning all the grain road officials in the prison, the jailer will not hesitate to die for him. I'm afraid that the ghost owner is not a simple person. β
"What do you mean...... People in the officialdom?" Lu Jian and the others asked in surprise.
"I remembered...... Feng Jian slapped his forehead and said, "I got the same confession when I interrogated those corrupt officials." The reason why they cooperate so well with the ghost owner is because the ghost owner also has evidence of their corruption and perversion of the law.
If you are not a person in the officialdom, how can you have evidence of so many people? I think my adult's inference is correct. β
"So, now divide into two lines and follow up at the same time, first, investigate all the news of the ghost owner. As long as it's related, don't let it go. Second, if you investigate the officialdom of Chuzhou, you can get the evidence of the corruption and perversion of the law by the officials of the seven prefectures, and the level of this person is definitely not low.
The direction of the investigation is first of all which officials and martial arts people are closer, and these must be investigated. β
"Yes!"
The machines of the entire Xuantian Mansion were running efficiently, and under the assignment of tasks, Xuantianwei traveled to almost every corner of Chuzhou. This kind of almost carpet search is to find a person or a name.
Ghost Owner!
Five days later, Sun You hurried to Lu Sheng's office with the goshawk book, "My lord, I found it." β
"Ghost Owner?"
"No, the brethren met an old man in Nanhu Province and learned a piece of news from him. But it's not the owner of the Ghost Farm, it's the Ghost Villa!"
"Where is Ghost Villa?" Lu Sheng hurriedly put down the copywriting and asked.
The old man said that there was a custom in his local area, that is, after death, people would be buried in the earth, and then a small house or small manor would be built on the grave.
The house is equal to the house where the deceased lived after death, and the bigger the better, the better it means that the deceased will live after death. Therefore, the children generally did not let the old people enjoy the happiness before they died, and after the old people died, the children would try their best to put the grave on the courtyard of the house to be big enough and gorgeous. β
"This custom is somewhat ...... Surprised, but what does it have to do with Ghost Villa?" Lu Sheng asked suspiciously.
"Because the manor houses built on the graves are called Ghost Hills. β
"Uh......" Lu Sheng didn't expect that the ghost owner they were looking for would be such a result, and shook his head with a wry smile, "The ghost owner should be the name of the Jianghu people, and the information you received may be useless."
The ghost owner, I think his person should be elusive and strong, even if you can't find out the name of the ghost owner from the rivers and lakes martial arts, you should be able to find a similar character, right?"
"My lord, my subordinates thought so at first. But we have also looked for the ghost owner on a small scale before, and we have also been to Nanhu Mansion, and we have also asked the locals about the ghost owner, but the locals have shaken their heads and never heard of it.
Later, his subordinates personally went to Nanhu Mansion to inquire with the old man, only to know that the name of Ghost Villa was the name of his hometown town, and the old man originally lived in Yudong Town, Nanhu Mansion, and there were seventeen villages around Yudong Town.
My lord, my subordinates thought that the name of the ghost village owner may have been obtained casually by people from the rivers and lakes, and there may be other meanings behind it, and it is also possible that that person has some connection with Yudong Town. Anyway, it's a clue, isn't it?"
Looking at Sun You's face, Lu Sheng suddenly smiled with relief, "You're right, I'm a little impatient." Maybe you can also see that I have lost my previous calm and calm in this case, thank you for reminding me. β
"The adults have won the awards, and they are all taught by adults. β
"This clue you found has the value of digging, since nothing else has been found, then continue to dig, I hope the name he gave himself is not something that comes out of his mouth. β
Sun You left, and soon Lu Sheng's office door was knocked again. Unexpectedly, this time it was not one of the several high-level officials of Xuantian Mansion, but a person who seemed to be a little familiar with Lu Sheng, but couldn't name him for a while.
"Report, Anqing Xuantianfu Flying Fox Special Operations Team, White Wolf, there is something to report. β
Lu Sheng's eyes looked at the white wolf calmly, and he wantonly glanced back and forth on the white wolf.
Normally, his office was the highest-level guard in the Xuantian Mansion. If you are not above a certain level, you do not have the right to knock on the office door without your own approval.
But the white wolf in front of him successfully came, and knocked on his door without being hindered at all?
Lu Sheng's eyes first fell on his hand, which was holding a document with top secret written on it. And today's white wolf also wore his high-level Xuantian Guard uniform on his body.
Lu Sheng specially designed different styles of uniforms for several special task forces. And Xuan Tianwei is almost always proud to be able to wear this special team uniform.
The white wolf is a member of the Einsatzgruppen and holds a top-secret dossier in his hand. It's easy to think that he got a secret mission and now has to report to Lu Sheng in person.
In Xuantian Mansion, no one dared to use the desperate document to do things, so the Xuantian guard guarding the guard let the white wolf in without too much investigation.
"Do you have a top-secret document for me?"
"My lord, the top-secret document of the lowly is empty, and the lowly knows that he has violated the family law, and he is willing to be punished. But there is one thing that is still unclear, and I hope that the head of the sect will give the brothers a reason, otherwise the brothers will not be able to reach it. β
"What's the matter?" Lu Sheng asked lightly, propping up his palm.
"I want to know why I was expelled a month ago, and although the law enforcement department gave me a serious disciplinary violation, the brothers wanted to know what discipline Xianyun had violated. The lack of elaboration for such a reason made it difficult for the brothers to be convinced. β
"I personally issued the dismissal order from the Law Enforcement Department, and you suspect that I wronged a good person?"
"Don't dare!"
"Don't dare! Why don't you even go to the top secret to deceive you? Since you want to know, why don't you ask Xianyun in person? If he is willing to say that you will know, if he is unwilling to say, what will you say when you come to me? If you are not convinced, is he not convinced? Even if he doesn't come to say that he is not convinced, you will worry!"
