Guanzhong was dry for four months from late spring to early autumn, grain prices in Chang'an soared, grain merchants were reluctant to sell, and the grain shortage in the market continued to deteriorate every day.

The main function of Taicang is for the royal family to consume, reward, hundreds of officials, military supplies and government relief, etc., in the face of the current Chang'an food shortage, Taicang came forward to provide relief sooner or later, and not long ago the empress ordered Taicang to release grain to balance the price of grain in Beijing, alleviate the situation of the grain shortage in Beijing, it is estimated that the officials of the Taicang Department also know in their hearts that they can't take out the grain to the empress is afraid that they will be held accountable, and last night the empress said in the Zichen Hall that she would thoroughly investigate Taicang, even if the officials who were called at that time failed to go out of the palace to pass the news, but the curfew ended early this morning, There are impermeable walls in the world, and the officials of the Taicang Department may have news in advance.

Yes, the officials of the Taicang Bureau, almost all of them can be in the official office these days.

Before noon, the members of the Guancang inspection team held the first inspection meeting in the lobby of the Taicang Department.

Dali Temple, Yushitai, and the Criminal Department were named by the empress to be included in the investigation team, and the top officials of the three divisions were of a certain age, and it was not appropriate to conduct an in-depth investigation of Chang'an Taicang and Guanzhong Qizhou Guancang, but it was indispensable to participate in the first inspection meeting, and the three bigwigs then followed to Taicang, and each brought one or two subordinate officials as the main members of the inspection team.

The Taicang Department is subordinate to Sinong Temple, and now to investigate Taicang, Sinong Temple is indispensable for officials to attend the inspection meeting.

If so, the members of the inspection team were quickly established.

The general person in charge of the inspection team is Shen Zhongyi.

The supreme chief of the three divisions of Dali Temple, Yushitai and the Criminal Department is his honorary member and chief supervisor.

Song Ruxuan, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Feng Tao in the Imperial History, Wang Zewen, the Supervisor of the Imperial History, Jiang Yuan, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, and Zhang Zhi, a member of the Criminal Department.

Among them, Song Ruxuan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and Feng Tao, the middle of the imperial history, are all acquaintances, they are the sons of Jiang Mo's old friends, and Liu Chenxing has seen them at the apprenticeship ceremony.

Jiang Yuan, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, and Liu Chenxing have not been in contact, but this one is the second-in-command of the Criminal Department and a high-ranking official of the fourth grade.

The actual high-ranking officials who can sit in the fourth grade, or the Beijing officials in Beijing, have some experience, and most of them are in their early forties.

Jiang Yuan, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, is relatively young, and now he is Chinese New Year's Eve and nine, compared with the elegant literati appearance of Song Ruxuan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who is also in charge of the criminal prison case, Jiang Yuan's appearance looks more in line with his official position, although his height is only average, but he has a Chinese face, a righteous face, whether he is sitting or standing, his waist is straight, and he has a bit of the majesty of a military general.

Wang Zewen, the superintendent of the imperial history, and Zhang Zhi, a member of the criminal department, are officials below the fifth grade, and the two of them are even younger, both of them are only about thirty years old.

With the addition of Liu Chenxing, there are only seven of them who have specific and complicated audit matters.

In order to show the importance of this case, the people present were Li Renliang, Secretary of Sinong Temple, and Xiang Wei, Shaoqing of Sinong Temple.

Sinong Siqing Li Renliang and Dali Siqing Zhang Boshan, Criminal Department Shangshu Zhao Guicheng, Imperial Historian Cai Zhengran, they are all a group of old ministers, considered to be the empress's generation, although Shen Zhongyi's status is noble, it is out of respect for the old and virtuous, to the four ministers of the court should also be polite to three points, first invited the four to sit in the first row on the left and right sides of the court, Shen Zhongyi went to the main seat in front of the seat.

Sinong Shaoqing Xiang Wei is in his early forties, this kind of early 40s, he is already a hundred officials and four grades, which is equivalent to setting a seat in the political affairs hall, which can be regarded as the mainstay of the court.

These four-rank high-ranking officials followed closely and took their seats.

Although Liu Chenxing is now only a Jiupin female history, he is stained with the light of the members of the inspection team, after all, he is a member of the empress's hand-picking, so he sits in a row with Wang Zewen, the superintendent of the imperial history, and Zhang Zhi, a member of the criminal department, and the positions behind them are the officials of the Taicang Administration.

It is estimated that there is a shortage of food in Guanzhong, and the empress found that the grain stored in the official warehouse is greasy, these are already things on the table, and the officials who have a little way have more or less gotten the news, and Shen Zhongyi did not gather the members of their inspection team together to have a meeting first, and directly spoke in front of the first and second leaders of the suspect Sinong Temple, as well as the officials of the Taicang Department.

"Taicang is the granary of our country, and every time there is a famine, Taicang often makes up for the shortage of warehouses in various places, curbs the inflation of grain prices, or opens warehouses to help the poor people in Chang'an. Today, Guanzhong encountered the biggest drought in ten years, grain prices skyrocketed, Taicang grain storage could not make up for the seven states in Guanzhong, and even the people of Chang'an were more nervous, I will not repeat the current situation. The sage has ordered the three divisions of Dali Temple, Yushitai, and the Criminal Department to work with me to investigate the huge loss of Taicang every year, and you should know the importance that the sage attaches to this. ”

Shen Zhongyi was in the main position, with a very cold expression on his handsome face, his phoenix eyes were not angry and arrogant, and he said word by word in a slow tone while passing over the officials seat.

It is estimated that Shen Zhongyi and the empress's eyes are the same, and under Shen Zhongyi's gaze, the officials sitting there lowered their heads slightly one after another.

What kind of atmosphere should be expressed, Liu Chenxing still knows that the current atmosphere is naturally to bow her head and lower her eyes, so she also bows her head in obedience with the crowd.

It seems that both ancient and modern times are much the same.

At the work meeting, the big guy first talked about the current situation, described the seriousness of a matter, and then emphasized the importance of the ultimate boss to this, so that the people below have a psychological preparation.

Next, it is estimated that the alarm bell will start to ring the alarm bell for the relevant personnel.

Looking at the feet hanging on the ground, Liu Chenxing had a little insight into participating in the ancient work conference for the first time in his life, and was about to continue listening to Shen Zhongyi's routines, when his heart flashed.

That's right!

Ring the alarm bells!

The people from Sinong Temple and Taicang Department are obviously the targets of the investigation, and Shen Zhongyi held the first meeting of the inspection team, including the determination of the members of the inspection team, and did not shy away from these two people at all, what is the difference between this and mental tactics?

Break down the inner defenses of those who have ghosts first.

Maybe he still used this to show his attitude, he was not afraid of these sneaky people, he came directly today with great fanfare, just to arrest them.

The thought flashed, Liu Chenxing calmed down, and only waited for Shen Zhongyi to speak again.

Shen Zhongyi saw everyone lowering their eyes and bowing their heads, his phoenix eyes then swept over the officials of the Taicang Department who were seated, and finally fell on the three Taicang orders, the phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the coldness suddenly became angry, and he said sharply: "Every year, the grain in the whole world will be imported into Taicang, but Taicang is not properly transported and stored every year, resulting in the loss of grain as high as thirty percent, and now we are ordered to investigate the huge loss of stored grain, even if someone hides it deeply, so that I can't find out what is greasy, then picket all the officials of the Taicang Department, and the crime of improper preservation should not be forgiven!" ”
