Chapter Seventy-Three: Corrupt Officials Are Caught
The corrupt official said a lot of things to Yejun City alone, until his mouth was dry, and after drinking a cup of tea, he found that the other party didn't seem to have said a word from beginning to end, and asked with some doubts.
"I don't know what you mean, lord?"
"Don't rush to answer yet, you have to ask another person?"
As he spoke, he knocked on the table with one hand, making a crisp sound, and then the guards pulled open a screen beside them, only to see that the undercover agent was tied to the chair with a lot of flowers, and the mouth was stuffed with a strip of cloth because he wanted to shout at first.
The corrupt official was very surprised when he saw the face of the undercover agent at first glance, and he didn't know how to react for a while.
Night Monarch City waved his hand, and the guard took away the strip of cloth stuffed in his mouth.
"Okay, your surname is Chen, everything I did this time was because of you, you don't want to rescue me anymore, forget it, you still think about putting me to death, it's really ruthless."
The undercover agent surnamed Li, and the corrupt official is still a distant relative for three thousand miles, if it weren't for the attraction of this relationship, you wouldn't have been able to take someone to do something illegal so confidently.
What the corrupt official said just now, Master Li heard it clearly inside, and now he was completely dead to him, and no longer expected the other party to save him.
"Lord Hui, this time the dam burst is all because the corrupt officials filled their pockets, so that the good building materials you originally selected were all changed to second-class, so it will cause the current consequences."
"You lie, I must not believe what this villain says, he is just because he knows that he is dead and wants to pull one more person into the water."
As soon as he arched his hands, he made an attitude of wanting to die, and said hoarsely.
"Lord Wang, don't believe what this person says easily, he has even done things that kill the people, and framing one more colleague is a trivial matter."
Master Li thought that he had seen the ugly face of a corrupt official behind the screen, but he didn't expect to dare to lie like this in front of himself, and he also fought back unceremoniously at the moment.
"Everything I say below is true, if you don't believe it, there is still an account book here, all of which record the corrupt officials who have done corruption and perversion of the law over the years."
When he spoke, he showed a helpless look and said boringly.
"I originally planned to use these things as a threat one day if he turned his face and didn't recognize anyone, but I didn't expect it to be used here today."
The corrupt officials were dumbfounded, they didn't expect that there was a backhand at all, and they fainted as soon as they rolled their eyes.
After finding evidence of corruption and bribery by corrupt officials according to the address, Yejun Cheng directly locked the person in the prison without saying hello, and then led the people to seal his home.
As a result, a large number of gold, silver, and jewels were found in his house, and not only that, but also a hidden treasure trove under his bedroom, all of which were rare treasures, many of which were sent by the people below, and some of which were collected from the people's fat and ointment.
If it weren't for seeing it with his own eyes, Night Monarch City wouldn't dare to imagine that a fourth-grade master would have such financial resources.
Yun Langge was also shocked when he stood in front of the treasure house, and asked by tugging at Night Monarch City's sleeve.
"Are you officials so rich, even if I spend three lifetimes of drunken money, I can't spend it, you say how good it would be if I was reincarnated as a man, so that I could also go to the imperial examination to become a big official."
Seeing that she was completely like she couldn't get out of the eyes of the money, Yejun Cheng smiled stupidly.
"Don't think about being an official in your life, and you know better than anyone about the intrigue and deceit in the officialdom, and it is estimated that you are not very willing to go when you are an official there."
Seeing that all his thoughts were clearly known by Yejun City, Yun Langge said with some embarrassment.
"Are you a roundworm in my stomach, how can I know everything, but there is one thing that is wrong, but if I can justifiably have so much money, why not be an official?"
"You, you."
Yejun Cheng shook his head and said helplessly, his tone full of doting on him.
The money found in the corrupt official's mansion, Yejun City and Yun Langge did not collect it for their own use, but contributed all of it to disaster relief.
After the truth of this matter was revealed, the people also expressed deep guilt for their previous misunderstanding of Yejun City, and they were even more grateful to him when they saw him take out so much money.
As soon as this incident came out, Yejun City's reputation in Huainan was even better than before, and everywhere he went, he sang praises to him, and it was simply a compliment to him.
But I don't know where a rumor spreads, saying that Yejun City is the reincarnation of the divine dragon in the sky, and this time it came down to relieve the disaster, otherwise it would not have done such a thing for the benefit of the country and the people at this age.
About this rumor that the Night Monarch City was banned and banned, but it still had no effect, on the contrary, it spread more and more, especially after the flood was completely resolved, this rumor spread to the point that even children knew.
The flood was successfully solved, and with the blessing of this rumor, the Queen Mother was like sitting on pins and needles in the palace, and there was no moment of peace.
"Your Majesty, look at the current Night Monarch City, I said at the beginning that I wanted to start early and strangle people in the bud, but you just didn't want to, saying that he had no intention of taking the throne at all, but if you look at what he is doing now, there is something like he has given up."
The rumors outside, the emperor naturally knew it clearly, and he was also very annoyed about this matter, and said helplessly.
"It's just that he is now powerful, and the people's hearts outside are ......"
Before he could finish his words, he was directly interrupted by the Queen Mother, and said with regret.
"The hearts of the people, you also know the hearts of the people, and you also handed over this opportunity for meritorious service to him, how could it become the current situation, to put it all because of you, if you had listened to this palace earlier, why would things be like this."
In the face of the powerful queen mother, the emperor didn't dare to come out, let alone say that she was the one who first proposed that Yejun City go to Huainan to treat the flood.
"It is also rumored that he is the reincarnation of the divine dragon in the sky, what is the dragon, that is the emperor who was born destined, with this rumor, if he wants to force the palace to rebel, he will have a legitimate reason, do you understand?"
Looking at the cowering emperor and queen mother, she really didn't look down on it, but she had no choice but to have only such a prince under her knees, and sighed a little helplessly and said.
"Okay, from now on, I'll take care of the affairs of Yejun City, just do your part."
Thinking of the last time the assassin sent a letter saying that he suspected the possibility of Yun Langge's betrayal, this seed of suspicion took root in the queen mother's heart, and now it has grown into a towering tree.
Directly wrote a letter to tell the assassin that he could not let Yejun City return to the capital again and directly strangle him in Huainan, if Yun Langge made trouble again during this period, he did not have to be merciful and directly killed on the spot, and a betrayed pawn did not need to be alive anymore.
After the problem of the flood was solved, Night Monarch City was in a good mood and happily proposed to Yun Langge.
"You have also worked hard during this time, I see that you worry about the victims every day, it seems that you have reduced a lot, today's time is just right, we might as well go out and enjoy it."
After coming to Huainan for so long, Yun Langge has never seen the scenery outside, and I thought that I had heard that the scenery here was particularly beautiful before I came.
Now it is nothing to do, and when he heard Yejun City propose this, he immediately came to his mind and said happily.
"Of course there's no problem, you wait for me, I'll go pack my things."
The two of them were escorted by the guards to a particularly prestigious temple in Huainan, where there was an ancient tree that had grown for hundreds of years, no one knew how old the tree was, only that this ancient tree had been here since there was this temple.
Yun Langge looked at the body of the tree in front of him, which could only be surrounded by more than a dozen people, and said with some surprise.
"Obediently, according to the age of the tree, I can call it an ancestor, don't really be a monster."
It was rare to see Yun Langge showing such a childish look, and Yejun Cheng found it interesting when he saw it, and quipped.
"This ancient pine has been in the temple for hundreds of years, if it really has spirituality, it will definitely not be an ordinary goblin in the mountains and wilderness, if you say this, if you accidentally offend him, it will not be good to trouble you at night."
Since the crossing, Yun Langge has a special belief in these ghosts and gods, and feels that there are even such miracles as crossing and rebirth, not to mention that there will definitely be fairies, demons and monsters, but ordinary people can't see it.
Deeply frightened, he bowed several times in front of the tree, and muttered deeply in his mouth.
"Don't blame those who don't know, don't blame those who don't know, don't come to me at night."
Yejun City took people away in a funny way, holding back a bad laugh all the way, and finally couldn't control his laughter after all.
It's not like the usual suppressed laughter, but a very relaxed laughter, and in front of Yun Langge, he completely released his true nature.
"Usually looking at your serious appearance, I really can't imagine that you would believe these ghosts and gods, I really don't know what you think in your heart."
Xu was because it was too easy for the two to get along, so he subconsciously forgot the sense of distance between the two and said.
"Everything in the world is so big, why don't you know that these things exist if you haven't seen them, and if this is the case in the future, don't say much."
When she said this, Yun Rongge was stunned, she was actually teaching Night Monarch City a lesson just now, and the miracle was that the other party was not angry yet.
While he was thinking about the reason, suddenly the Assassin appeared from the side.
