Chapter 373: Order Cleared
Where can Lin Su'e not understand, she wants to tell the other party in person about this kind of thing, she nodded immediately, and ordered a few little maids, don't talk too much, and wait for the second lady to say it herself.
A few little maids promised again and again.
This night, Gu Huaisheng was busy until late again, and as soon as he walked into the house, he met Wei Wu, who was in the dust.
So he did not go back to his room, but went to the study first.
Wei Wu told the clues he had found during this period of time.
As Gu Huaisheng guessed, Bai Drew was the person of the Five Princes, and he had taken refuge in the Five Princes as early as five years ago.
At that time, he was still under the command of the third prince and was a capable assistant, but he had already rebelled at that time.
King Liang collapsed so quickly, not only were they dealing with it, but Bai Drew also revealed some flaws intentionally or unintentionally, making it easier for people to find out, but he himself was extremely shrewd, and the flaws revealed could not involve him.
King Liang, King Liang, I guess I didn't expect to die that it was not only Tang Heng who betrayed him, but also Bai Dru.
Bai Drew did things neatly, leaving no extra traces, Wei Wu squatted for several days, and Bai Dru, who was only probed, quietly met Rong Taishi.
But the Taishi Mansion was heavily guarded, and he didn't find out any extra news.
At this moment, Tang Heng came and brought a clue, saying that he could check it from Guben Town.
After the incident in Guben Town, Tang Heng keenly noticed that Bai Dru's instructions to King Liang seemed to be a little negative.
Guben Town could be a breakthrough.
Wei Wu went to Guben Town, searched for many days, and finally sorted out the relationship.
The town of Guben is called the town, and it is actually a very wide place, located in the southwest, with mostly plains and developed agriculture.
In addition, the time and place are favorable, the annual harvest is quite abundant, and the people are rich and rich, comparable to a small city.
However, this rich city encountered a year of natural disasters, with two consecutive years of reduced rainfall, drought, and famine.
The imperial court for disaster relief sent the left servant of the household department, Fu Hesong, and the trip was followed by Cangbu Langzhong Baifei, who was in charge of Lu grain.
When the household department arrives for disaster relief, it can be said that it is a fat poor, and there are no disaster relief and no greed, depending on how greedy there is more and how little there is, and there are honest officials, but there are very few.
Fu Hesong is about fifty years old, and he will be greedy, but it is a small greed, which does not affect the overall situation, and he still has principles, at least to ensure that it will not affect the livelihood of refugees.
Because once there is too much corruption, these refugees will turn against each other and sue the DPRK and the central government, but the gains will outweigh the losses.
After arriving in Guben Town, Fu Hesong finished his search and began to instruct people to build a porridge shed.
He has been in disaster relief many times, but he has a lot of experience, and he also knows how to quickly calm the emotions of refugees, and he is followed by Bai Fei.
Bai Fei is the sister-in-law of Bai Deru, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, although he is a Kurabe Langzhong, but almost no one up and down dares to offend him, that is, Fu Hesong, who is also polite to him.
This disaster relief and corruption, of course, the benefits must be shared together, Bai Fei Heng intervened, and Fu Hesong had to give half of the greedy money to Bai Fei.
Bai Fei looked at the money and glanced at it with disdain, that's it, what is it enough?
It can be said that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, it can be said that the ignorant are fearless, and Bai Fei's actions are more greedy than Fu Hesong.
The amount of food distributed by the imperial court every time for disaster relief has always been sufficient, so Bai Fei came up with a plan to resell the grain.
It is not distributed for free, but it needs to be bought with money, for the sake of rice and grain, many large families began to soar the price, and the price rose higher and higher, Bai Fei was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Those who can't afford to eat can only eat free alms.
The free should have been thick rice porridge, soft steamed buns, but in the harsh huge bowl of porridge, there were only a few rice grains, and the steamed buns were also the roughest multigrain steamed buns, and each person could only receive one, which was small.
Bai Fei's actions were hidden from Fu Hesong, who was still sitting back and quiet, occasionally patrolling a few nearby areas.
In the nearby area, Bai Fei naturally didn't do anything else, and he did it a little farther away.
In remote areas, a large number of refugees starved to death because they had no money to buy food, and finally the refugees were angry and began to crusade, and when they reached the prefect, Fu Hesong knew the actions behind Bai Fei.
Deng Shi was so angry that he almost turned his back, and kept thinking about the ignorant child, the ignorant child, and the old man was miserable.
He planned to do his best to make up for it, but it was too late, and the refugees were furious, formed a faction, and began to rob them.
Bai Fei had already resold the grain, and took the silver money to hide. The refugees did not get much food, and it became more and more out of control.
He is just a Kurabe Langzhong, and the refugees must go to find the leader of this disaster relief, Fu Hesong.
Things are getting more and more intense, and soon it spread to the palace, the emperor is angry, the annual grain output of Guben Town is good, and there are more handed over, the emperor naturally attaches importance to it, if it is because of a disaster, the court did not provide timely relief and appeasement, and then lost the heart of Guben Town, and the gains outweigh the losses.
So he quickly sent someone to investigate and gave an explanation, and the person sent was the right imperial history of the Inspectorate, and he was good friends with Bai Dru.
Drew spent a lot of money behind his back to get his son out, and the details were wiped clean, and the people who sold food with his son at that time all framed the refugees on the grounds of the refugee riots, saying that the refugees killed them.
Fu Hesong wanted to tell the truth, but unfortunately, when the people from the Inspectorate arrived, Fu Hesong committed suicide "in fear of crime".
He left only a bloody letter, a confession, explaining his sins, and a box of money.
There are about 100,000 taels of silver tickets in this box.
The Inspectorate convicted Fu Hesong in this way, and Fu Hesong's house was raided.
And Bai Fei resold the 200,000 taels he earned by reselling grain at that time, and he kept half of it, and with the 100,000 taels he had got, he went back with peace of mind.
Bradru understood the stakes involved in this corruption, and after the case was closed, the right imperial history of the Inspectorate fell into the lake and drowned because of drunkenness.
Bai Drew wiped out the last person who knew, thinking that he could sit back and relax, but he never thought that Rong Taishi intervened, and he got the account book when Bai Fei sold grain, every food flow, every penny of income was clearly recorded.
Bai Drew was shocked, and Bai Fei was also shocked, he obviously burned the account book and killed the bookkeeper.
Rong Taishi said: "The person who records the account book is not stupid, and he recorded two copies for fear that the other party would turn against him, and one day he would use it as a bargaining chip for negotiation." ”
If this matter is publicized, Fei'er will definitely die, and Baifu will be raided.
In the end, Rong Taishi took this as a threat, and Bai Drew surrendered to Rong Taishi.
After five years, almost none of the people involved at that time could be found, the dead died, the disappeared, except for the account book in the hands of Rong Taishi, there was almost no other strong evidence.
However, the sky net was restored, and Wei Wu bothered to visit for a few days, and found that there were still orphans left in the family of the master who accompanied Fu Hesong for disaster relief.
That master is Fu Hesong's old partner, and Fu Hesong's account book is kept and recorded by him.
