The next day, Sister Li Yue went to the Yamen to inquire, only to know the cause of the incident, the flood flooded more than a dozen important towns in the suburbs of Beijing, killed a lot of people, plus Liuwa this hard-hit area, after the dam burst, it caused a landslide, blocked the river, and now the entire Liuwa has become a big lake, which means that the imperial court's investment in Liuwa in recent years has all been lost, and there are some untroubled imperial history to demolish the emperor to be guilty of the edict.

Of course, the emperor is not happy, who has nothing to blame for himself, the king is worried, the ministers understand, there are courtiers who know how to observe words and colors for the emperor to share worries, saying that the Liuwa River project was completed not long ago, there was a dam failure, there may be that there is a private fraud, and the responsibility of the Liuwa River Workers Yamen is required, so there is this incident, and with the deepening of the investigation, the incident has expanded, not only the Liuwa River Workers Yamen, but also Zheng Da and other Cao Gang on the main business, as well as the original river project supply merchants are also all in prison, and finally developed to the point that the second prince was also taken away by the emperor on an errand and ordered to think about it in the house.

In short, things are out of the box.

Sister Li Yue pondered, she still had to find Zheng Dian for this matter, and now he can talk to the above, so as soon as she made tofu early in the morning, Sister Li Yue went to find Zheng Dian, and when she arrived at Zheng Dian's house, she saw Zheng Dian sharpening her knife on the whetstone at the door, and her black hair was still a little wet, even if there was still a kind of dampness on the clothes, it was obvious that the morning dew was wet.

Look at the kitchen knife on the whetstone, sharpened and shiny. The pawn boy will not be a knife that has been sharpened overnight, Sister Li Yue knows that this kid used to be boring, so Mrs. Zheng stipulated that whenever he encounters a major event, he will sharpen the knife first, and then go to work after grinding his heart.

This kid took Mrs. Zheng's words to heart.

"The seventh master has sent a letter, let us calm down, the emperor will come down in a few days to inspect the disaster, and there will be a decision on this matter at that time." Zheng Dian looked at Sister Li Yue coming over, and then looked at Sister Li Yue's brows. I knew what Sister Li was worried about, so I took the first step to be relieved.

"This kind of thing can't wait, in case the emperor arrives and condemns everyone, as soon as Chrysostom opens, there will be no room for retraction." Sister Li Yue said, obviously. In this flood, the emperor wants to have an explanation for the subjects of the world, and the river workers yamen are not guilty and guilty.

"There must always be evidence for conviction, and now that the willows are completely flooded, don't say there is none. Even if you want to find it, you can't find it, with the second master and the seventh master here, it is impossible for the third division to be convicted without evidence. I estimate that everyone will be released after a while, but I'm afraid that the errand of the yamen will be lost. Zheng Dian said, and let Sister Li Yue into the house to sit, and brought a teapot to pour tea for Sister Li Yue, but the tea was empty.

"I'm going to burn it." Zheng Dian touched his nose and hurriedly went into the kitchen, just burning a pot but black smoke was everywhere. Sister Li Yue knew in her heart that although the Zheng family was also a farmer, this kid had been spoiled by the family since he was a child. Later, he endured hardships with the second master, although he was also honed, but I am afraid that the work on this stove is very hand-born. So he stepped forward and snatched the firewood in his hand, pushed him away, and then burned it himself, and after a while, the water boiled, and he looked at some corn flour in the jar on the side, and simply burned the corn paste.

When it was cooked, Zheng Dian devoured it, he went to the yamen last night to find someone to inquire about things, drank a stomach of wine with someone, but didn't eat much food, and sharpened his knife all night, and his stomach was already hungry.

Sister Li Yue looked at him with tears and laughter, no wonder the old lady has always been worried about him, this kid is not a person who can take care of himself, and he has a problem.

Then he thought about Zheng Dian's words before, and said: "It's not completely impossible to find evidence, as far as I know, when Lord Yang was in charge of the river engineering yamen, the materials set were more or less rebates." Sister Li Yue sat on the side at this time and frowned and said, Mo Yi followed Yang Dongcheng at the beginning, and she also knew some inside information.

In fact, these are not Yang Dongcheng's pockets, but when Yang Dongcheng was in charge of the river work yamen, he was a foreigner, and he wanted to win the hearts of the people, so it was inevitable to use some means, so all the kickbacks he took became the benefits of his subordinates.

"I know this, even the second master knows it in his heart, no matter how honest this kind of thing is, it is inevitable." Zheng Dian swallowed a mouthful of corn paste and frowned, this has to be prevented, this kind of thing is okay if you don't check it, if you really want to find out, you will give someone a handle when the time comes.

"However, don't worry too much, I have already gone to the prison to see Lord Yang yesterday, and he told me that the entire river project, including the materials, has detailed records, but these have been sealed by the imperial history sent by the imperial court, and he asked me to find a way to get these records, so that others will have nothing to say about the materials."

Speaking of the imperial history, Sister Li Yue sighed in her heart, this time even Yu Ziqi was not spared, and she was under review.

"Who are you going to look for?" Sister Li Yue asked.

"Looking for the seventh master, the second master was also implicated in this incident, the seventh master has a good relationship with the second master, and he will not sit idly by, in addition, if there is a chance, you can also ask the seventh master to help find Lord Shen, I heard that this time, Lord Shen will go to Tongzhou with the emperor, and Lord Yu is his grandson-in-law, and he will not sit idly by." Zheng Dian said.

"Well, be careful, then." Sister Li Yue nodded.

Zheng Dian finished breakfast at this time, Sister Li Yue cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, Zheng Dian went into the house again to pack up her things, and when she went out, she stuffed the key to the house in Sister Li Yue's hand, and didn't say what to do, so she said to Sister Li Yue: "I'm going to Beijing." After speaking, he turned around and left, turning back and waving his hand at Sister Li Yue from a distance.

Sister Li Yue looked at his back, and then looked at the key in her hand, but she had an inexplicable emotion in her heart, and finally shook her head and helped Zheng Dian check the inside and outside of the house. put a pillar of incense in front of Mrs. Zheng's spirit, and then turned around and locked the door, but he was not in a hurry to go home, but went to the mouth of the Cao Bang altar.

In the past, the mouth of the altar was lively and lively, and there were countless people coming and going, but now it is the door can be Luo Que, since Zheng Da was involved in the Liuwa dam collapse incident, Cao Si has officially taken the following, and the right to transport grain at the mouth of the Zheng family has been lifted, and the Cao Gang disciples who originally followed the Cao Gang were scattered, if it were not for the Zheng family brothers, they were all ruthless, and Zheng Dian protected it, it was the real estate of the altar, and it was almost occupied by the people who called Cao Si.

"Sister Yue'er, are you here?" Seeing Sister Li Yue enter the door, Mrs. Zheng greeted her, and her eyes were red and swollen at the moment. Obviously, Uncle Zheng's affairs, Mrs. Zheng has a lot to worry about.

"Well, I'm looking for Iron Bull." Sister Li Yue said.

"Is there anything wrong with the iron bull and the man who walks on the dock to pick up the work? But what happened to your Uncle Zheng? Mrs. Zheng said with a somewhat frightened look.

"No, there is something for Tie Niu to help, and I told my aunt that it was the same." Sister Li Yue said.

"You say." Aunt Zheng said.

"That's right. I heard the boy say that in a few days, the imperial court will come down to inspect the disaster, and then there will be a trial of the case of the Liuwa dam failure. These people participate in the construction of the dam, and they have a number of materials for the dam, and when the time comes. They can at least prove that the river workers yamen did not cut corners, as long as the river workers yamen is not seriously wrong, then the other people involved in it are not guilty. Sister Li Yue said.

"Well, this is also a way, and this matter will be wrapped up in my Zheng family." As soon as Mrs. Zheng heard Sister Li Yue's idea, no matter whether it succeeds or not, the dead horse should be treated as a live horse doctor, so she promised.

After that, the two chatted a few more words. Sister Li Yue couldn't help but persuade Mrs. Zheng to be relieved, and Mrs. Zheng in turn persuaded Sister Li Yue to be relieved. In the end, he shook his head helplessly, who would have thought that a natural disaster would eventually become an official wrong. This is the change of the world, and life is like chess.

Then Sister Li Yue said goodbye and went home.

The second aunt has been in better health these days, and she has been taking Rong Yan Rongxi around the city and outside the city all day long. inquired about the news of the second uncle, and because of Mo Yi's matter, the move that had been said before had been postponed, and Mrs. Li and Mrs. Li were now worried about their son and grandson.

However, in just a few days, the gray hair of the two men became whiter.

When Sister Li Yue entered the house, she saw her grandfather sitting at the door weaving a bamboo basket, and the door was already high, and Grandpa's craftsmanship was good, and such baskets could be sold several times a day.

"I'm back, what did the Zheng family say?" Li Laohan asked.

Sister Li Yue told Zheng Dian to go to Beijing to find the seventh master, and asked Mrs. Zheng to tell the river workers who participated in the project at the beginning, Li Laohan nodded: "Well, this thing is done well, with these evidences, at least it can prove that Mo Yi is conscientious, the dam collapse is God's will, this is God is collecting people, as long as Mo Yi can save his life this time, the errand of the yamen will be lost." ”

Well, Sister Li Yue nodded.

"Hey, that kid, what do you see, if you want to buy tofu, buy it, and leave if you don't buy it." At this moment, on the tofu stall on the side, Yuejiao was angry and said to a sixteen or seventeen-year-old brother in front of her.

The little brother was wearing a white-washed robe, and the expression on his face was a little shy, and when he was roared by Yuejiao, his face was swollen and red

"Yuejiao, what are you doing, making money with kindness, how can you do business with your temper." Sister Li Yue said angrily.

"Eldest sister, you don't know, he has been looking at us just now, and he doesn't buy tofu, who knows what An's heart is?" Sister Li Yue shrugged her nose and said, the ground in Tongzhou is much more chaotic than Liuwa, and some idle people like to stare at the big girl, Yuejiao naturally has to be on guard.

Yuejiao said, still glaring at the little brother who was a little at a loss.

"I don't have bad intentions, I'm here to find someone, may I ask if you are from the Liuwa Li family?" At this time, the little brother was making a gesture.

"Exactly, I wonder what this little brother is looking for us?" Sister Li Yue looked at the little brother as if she had something to say, so she stepped forward and asked.

When the little brother heard Sister Li Yue's words, he let out a long breath, and then said, "I am helping Li Zhongda and Second Uncle Li bring a message......

"You mean my second uncle? Where is he? Is he okay? When Sister Li Yue heard this little brother say the name of the second uncle, she was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly asked, while Li Laohan also surrounded her.

"Well, it's okay, he's injured, he's recuperating at my house, and he can't come, so he asked me to bring a message to report his safety." The little brother said.

Hearing the little brother's answer, Sister Li Yue breathed a long sigh of relief, and felt a burst of joy in her heart, finally hearing a good news.
