Chapter 161: Joy at First Sight

Qin Huaidao originally just wanted to make a scene, get back the silver, and supervise the government by the way, he really didn't want to make it big, but the food involved the life and death of the people of Chang'an City, and if he didn't stab him, his conscience couldn't get by, and how many big fish would be blown up under this knife had nothing to do with him.

The big husband has something to do and something not to do!

Not long after, a palace guard came in and said, "My lord, a son who calls himself Du He has come to visit. ”

Qin Huaidao almost laughed when he heard it, Du He is a loyal confidant by the prince's side, this guy has always wanted to emulate his father and become a generation of famous ministers, but unfortunately he is very talented, and his eyes are low, this time he must be a lobbyist for the prince, the last time they met was for the sword, and he gestured: "Bring it in." ”

It didn't take long for Du He to walk into the hall, dressed in a crescent white robe, with his hands behind his back, his face was a little cold, and he said, "Du He, I've seen Lord Qin!" ”

"Something?" Qin Huaidao got straight to the point.

Du He couldn't react for a while, shouldn't he be polite and compliment each other a few words, and then turn to the topic? After thinking about it, he also said bluntly: "I came here on the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, and I heard that Lord Qin arrested the head of the household branch, and Lord Dai and Lord Cui sued the royal court, and the saint was furious. ”

"Something to say." Qin Huaidao interrupted.

Du He was a little surprised, shouldn't he be nervous and scared after committing such a big incident, and find a way to resolve it everywhere? This guy must be pretending, and immediately said: "Lord Qin is fast-talking, full of courage, and admires, but it is a taboo in officialdom to arrest people indiscriminately, and the saint is furious, and Lord Qin is probably in trouble." ”

"It's a bit of trouble, but what does it have to do with you?" Qin Huaidao asked rhetorically, the person who is most annoyed by this kind of going around in circles is not straightforward at all.

Du He smiled: "It's really irrelevant, but the prince is benevolent and righteous, and he also appreciates Lord Qin, and is willing to help one or two, of course, the courtesy is still exchanged, and Lord Qin also has to show something." ”

"Oh, what does that mean?"

"It's very simple for Lord Qin, as long as there are five thousand carts of coal, the prince will help Lord Qin to deal with the past, the prince is benevolent, naturally he will not covet Lord Qin's heavy gifts, I heard that Lord Qin pulled a cart of coal over fifty Wen, and five thousand carts don't have a few silver, but they can save Lord Qin's life."

The freight of five thousand truckloads of coal is two hundred and fifty taels of silver, which is really not much, Qin Huaidao smiled coldly: "My life is more than five thousand trucks of coal, please tell the prince when I go back, although the official is in trouble, but if you want to solve it yourself, if you really can't do it, forget it, it doesn't matter, if Lord Du has nothing to do, please go back." ”

"It's just some coal, Lord Qin has thought about it?" Du He's tone was a little colder.

"You've figured it out!"

"Lord Qin is so rejecting people thousands of miles away, don't you want to think about the future?"

Qin Huaidao is most annoyed by other people's threats, not to mention a prince who has no future, even if he will ascend to the throne in the future? What can't you do if you're in a hurry? His face sank, and he said coldly: "The court has a law, and you are not allowed to make friends with the prince, the prince, the official is afraid of death, for Uncle Du's sake, I advise you, so I can do it myself!" ”

"You ......"

Du Heqi's face turned pale: "The words have been brought, since you don't know what to do, let's see." ”

"It's a pity ......"

Qin Huaidao watched the other party leave, a generation of famous ministers Du Ruhui, but with such a son, I'm afraid the coffin board can't be suppressed, right? If you want to rebel and change your life, it's no problem, you have to follow the right person.

And this prince actually wants to prostitute for nothing, wait!

An hour later, Yu Chi Baolin came in a hurry with some people, and shouted when he entered the door: "My lord, Zhou Yi has been caught, this kid has recruited all, thinking that we are sent by the saint, and he also asked to report and make meritorious contributions. ”

"Bring it on." Qin Huaidao was a little curious, was he so timid, but he saved some effort.

Not long after, a man was escorted in, white and tender, a little fat, but both legs were shaking when he walked, his forehead was full of cold sweat, Qin Huaidao stared at the other party and asked, "Who is coming?" ”

"My lord, in the next week." The other party knelt down with a puff.

Qin Huaidao looked really cowardly, unreasonable, and couldn't help but look at Yu Chi Baolin and asked, "Tell me, what happened when you arrested someone?" ”

"There are four guards around this kid, and I cut him down directly, spraying him with blood, I guess he was frightened, and he looked like a useless coward." Yu Chi Baolin explained.

Qin Huaidao still doesn't believe that Cui Renshi will arrange a cowardly bag to guard the granary, and he is not sure if he doesn't understand this problem, who knows if this guy is acting, pretending to be afraid, and turning around to confess indiscriminately? With a straight face, he asked, "Tell me, why did Master Cui arrange for you to take care of the granary?" ”

Zhou Yi said in a panic: "My lord, I will do the accounts in the next meeting, and Lord Cui will recommend to the court to take care of the granary, and my lord will spare his life, and he will say anything." ”

"Fake accounts?" Qin Huaidao blurted out, seeing that the other party didn't dare to say anything, he suddenly felt in his heart, this is right, it is impossible for Cui Renshi to arrange waste to take care of the granary, it is different if he will make false accounts, and asked: "Say, how much grain has Cui Renshi transported away and resells?" ”

"My lord, if you recruit in the next place, can you live?"

Qin Huaidao coldly threatened: "I can't decide whether I can live the official, that's a matter of the saint, the grain is resold and the saint is angry, and he will be punished for the crime of rebellion, if you don't have a big deal and have the merit of reporting, at least you won't fall into the crime of rebellion and the nine clans, think about it." ”

When Zhou Yi heard that he was going to be punished for the crime of rebellion, his face changed greatly, his heart and liver trembled, and then he heard "nothing is wrong" and his mind was alive, what does it mean to be nothing, naturally he is to put all the responsibility on others, plus the merit of reporting, he may die, but his family should be able to live.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yi hurriedly said: "My lord, I am willing to report it, it was Master Cui Renshi who forced me to do it, he arranged for the convoy to come over to pull the grain, and let the accounts be done well, and the small ones can't help it." ”

"Where's the ledger?"

"The ledger is here." Suddenly, Cheng Chumo's voice came from outside.

Soon, Cheng Chumo rushed in and handed Qin Huaidao an account book.

Qin Huaidao took it and looked at it, what time was written on it, who would take how much food, and what name was used, and the pen was clear, so he held the account book and asked, "Zhou Yi, see it clearly, is this one?" ”

"Yes, it's this one." Zhou Yi hurriedly replied.

Cheng Chumo said a little proudly: "My lord, the one found in the back garden of his house, buried in the ground, is hidden enough, and as soon as the threat is passed, his wife will recruit him." ”

"Good job." Qin Huaidao looked at it for a while, there were actually three grain merchants who went to transport grain, this is a joint gang to suck the blood of the imperial court, I am afraid that there are many families behind it, ministers, if this lid is lifted, the imperial court may face a big blood exchange, but it has nothing to do with himself.

What I want is to establish my own authority, establish my own prestige, and also establish the prestige of the Supervision Mansion, so that people will not dare to provoke themselves in the future, otherwise someone will come to the door every day, and the life will not be able to pass? As for how to deal with these people, it was Li Er's business, and it had nothing to do with him, so he didn't care about killing or burying it, and asked: "Chu Mo, there are a total of three grain merchants who have transported grain, have you read the account books?" ”

"I didn't have time."

"Look, after reading it, you two will bring someone to seal all the shops of the three grain merchants for me."

"Obey!" The two hurriedly said.

Qin Huaidao handed the account book to Cheng Chumo, and immediately looked at Zhou Yi and said, "Zhou Yi, is there any evidence to prove that Lord Cui asked you to put grain?" ”

"This ......," Zhou Yi was speechless for a while.
