Ban Yue sat quietly in the study and read.

He didn't worry about the corruption of military salaries at all, because he was afraid of nothing.

Both in the military and the bank, both are managed by the account office. The management of the account room is very strict, in addition to the bookkeeper, there is also a cashier who is responsible for the cash in and out, as well as the account supervisor who verifies the account books, each silver needs to be signed by three people at the same time to approve the transfer or use, no one can do it privately, unless three people are corrupt at the same time.

As long as you take a pair of account books in the army, you know the use of every silver tael, and none of them has entered your own pocket.

As for the withholding of food, it is only a misunderstanding of a certain part of the people.

If the emperor understands the severity of swine fever, he will know that pork is indeed difficult to serve on the table.

I want to take advantage of this opportunity to make the emperor pay attention to swine fever and take timely measures to prevent the continued spread of swine fever.

The only trouble now is the smile that appeared out of thin air.

If she tells the truth, it is not only a matter of her own lax coastal defense, but also the crime of bullying the king.

"General." Uncle Qian and Jin Ning walked in together.

Ban Yue put down the book, and what he was waiting for was the news of Uncle Qian.

"I haven't seen Miss Xiaoxiao, according to the jailer, many people have been beaten, so Xiaoxiao is doing well in prison." Uncle Qian reported.

"So she's been bought by the crown prince?" Ban Yue immediately said so.

If no one did it, why did she live well in prison?

According to her own observations, this woman is obviously a lover of money, and if she gives her some gold and silver, she will rest under the pillow and carry it in her arms like a baby, and she can't put it down.

If the prince promised a lot of money, it would be strange if she didn't laugh.

"Listen to the jailer, except for the prince, there are other people who have also taken care of it."

Others? Banyue thought of the assassins again. Xiaoxiao can know their actions in advance, and she must be in league with them, which proves that she has a group of people behind the scenes.

When she was arrested, those people were naturally in charge.

It seems that the possibility of this woman dragging herself down is almost nine out of ten.

Her appearance is clearly part of a series of conspiracies.

No wonder she happened to appear next to her boots when the prince came to inspect, which should have been premeditated.

She took advantage of her vanity—for fear of losing her position as general—and her indecision, allowing herself to acquiesce in her relationship—alas! Banyue slapped himself.

"General?" Jin Ning and Uncle Qian looked inexplicable.

"It's fine." Ban Yue said with some shame.

I have too many weaknesses to be stared at by this fly.

This woman should have been exposed on the spot, and it would not be difficult to ride a tiger now.

So the main culprit in the whole thing is his own vanity and indecision and the kindness of a woman.

"Brother Yue, Brother Yue-"

A crisp sound came from outside the house.

Lotus?

Oops, why is she here?

Ban Yue hurriedly got up and hid behind the screen, while saying to Jin Ning and Uncle Qian, "Just say I'm not there." ”

He flashed behind the screen, and a handsome girl appeared.

Jin Ning and Uncle Qian hurriedly clenched their fists and bowed: "Lotus County Lord." ”

"Huh? What about General Banyue? She looked around and saw a roll of bamboo slips spread diagonally on the desk.

This is not Banyue's style, he asks everything to be neatly arranged.

Lianhua walked over, and while packing up the bamboo slips, she reproached Jin Ning: "The general must have gone out in a hurry, why don't you help him tidy it up, he will be angry when he comes back." ”

"Yes, County Lord." Jin Ning is submissive.

"Where will he go?"

"Why don't you look elsewhere?" Jin Ning wanted to break her up.

"No, you go and help me find it, I'll wait here and tell him that I have something urgent, very urgent." The county lord sat down cross-legged behind the desk.

Jin Ning glanced at the screen, so he had to go out with Uncle Qian, and when he arrived in the courtyard, he deliberately shouted: "General, general......"

When Lotus heard this, she quickly got up and ran out.

Panyue was relieved and came out from behind the screen.

I didn't want to see Lotus, I was afraid that she would nag and ask what was going on.

She was grounded, it was impossible to get out of this general's mansion, and with her character, she would not give up until she found herself.

So I had to move somewhere.

He picked up the books on the desk, opened the secret door of the bookcase, and hid in the dark room.

I don't know when, the doorbell was ringing, this should be Jin Ning reminding himself that the Lotus County Lord has left.

He came out of the dark room.

"General, can't you just take another book? I have to take the volume on the case, so that I and the county lord can't explain where your book has gone. Jin Ning complained hoarsely.

"Thank you for your hard work." Banyue patted him on the shoulder, expressing great sympathy.

I know the character of the Lotus County Lord, she is very serious, and she can be more real to the point of making people crazy.

"General, Bachelor Fan asks to see you." Uncle Qian reported outside the door.

"Yes, please." The general had a happy look on his face.

Fan Lu, a nerd who doesn't listen to anything outside the window, also came to him, and it seems that he knows everything about himself.

Fan Lu was also one of the prince's companions.

His father was a big official in the capital, but he was not born in a family, and he squeezed into the ranks of big officials by studying hard and being talented.

In the eyes of the common people, his father is already prosperous enough, but in the eyes of famous families, he looks down on this kind of golden phoenix flying out of the chicken nest, after all, his family background is too thin, and the little family is very angry.

Therefore, the prince's companion reading is actually divided into two factions, one is the children of the world, they are hereditary high-ranking officials and lords, and they are hedonistic; The other faction is a poor family like Fan Lu, who is diligent and thrifty, diligent in studying, and thinks that eating, drinking, and having fun is a waste of life.

How can Fan Lu know that pleasing Bajie is the right way around the prince?

Therefore, he was bullied by the princes and them, and he sympathized with each other, so he naturally became close friends with Banyue, who was also bullied.

Fan Luxian is the youngest doctor in Taixue, obsessed with the collation and research of ancient books, not nosy, not good at officialdom, and very dislikes to deal with people, so he has a reputation as a nerd.

When he heard about Banyue, he put down the books in his hand and rushed over.

The two hadn't seen each other for more than a year, and they were very happy with each other.

"Independence raised a new order, and thousands of battalions shouted together. General, majestic. Fan Lu said enviously.

"Nerd, you don't know I'm grounded in the house?" Banyue said distressedly.

"Of course you know, what the hell is going on?"

Ban Yue explained the matter in detail.

"So the prince is layered with defenses, and you can't escape?" Fan Lu asked.

"I thought I would just serve the country wholeheartedly, but it seems that I lost a tendon to learn how to be someone else's pug, so I ended up like this." Banyue replied.

"How can you sit still?"

"That's nature. The prince has evidence to falsely accuse me of embezzlement of military salaries and poor food, and I also have witnesses and physical evidence to prove my innocence. It's just that I made a big mistake and confessed my relationship with that woman in public, which is tantamount to committing the crime of deception. ”

"Don't say that, things happen for a reason, white lies, strategic lies, are not called deceptions." Fan Lu comforted.

"I have a strong premonition that she may be a concubine and a concubine in the future, and she will bring disaster to the country and the people."

"You said that woman in a mysterious way, is it so serious?" Fan Lu has always believed that there is no right to speak without investigation, and he is reluctant to agree, saying, "Otherwise, I will find a way to go to the prison to find out her tone." ”

"I can't get half a word out of her mouth because of my coercion and intimidation, what can you know?" Banyue had no hope for this.

"How do you know if you don't try?" Fan Lu became more and more interested.
