Ninety-seven, the aftermath of the bureau

When Shi Heng said this, Li Kelin was slightly stunned, but he quickly understood, and then said to Shi Heng: "Uncle mentioned this matter, it is really difficult, there are many people, where is the relief." Klin was going to go over and arrange some storefronts when the time came, so that people could follow up and report to the top. ”

When Shi Heng heard this, his face changed greatly, and he immediately shouted at Li Kelin: "Confused, how can this matter be handled like this, the disaster relief matter, the first thing is to appease the people, from the current situation, if you want the emperor to trust you again, you must not be careless in disaster relief, otherwise I am afraid that your life will not be guaranteed." ”

Hearing what Shi Heng said so seriously, Li Kelin said to Shi Heng very respectfully: "What my uncle taught me is that my little nephew will never live up to my uncle's expectations. ”

"Okay, every year of disaster, there will be troubled people, once the court has the grace to order you to go to disaster relief, I will immediately send someone to help you with disaster relief, and I will never let the troubled people disturb you." Shi Heng said.

Li Kelin said to Shi Heng, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Xu Youzhen's figurative intent was really in place, and after Li Kelin and Xu Youzhen grabbed the knife and handed it over, the emperor saw it for a long time.

After seeing it, the emperor's reaction was indeed as Xu Youzhen had predicted in advance.

Within a few days, the court had a grace order, and the holy decree said that Li Kelin asked for disaster relief, and he had a conscience for the court and the emperor. He was allowed to make meritorious service and atone for his crimes, and he was still sent to Henan to distribute grain and grass for disaster relief. ”

With this grace, Li Kelin can be regarded as a famous teacher.

Shi Heng naturally also sent some people to go back with Li Kelin for disaster relief.

A month after Li Kelin's return, Jian Huaizhen once went to Huaiming Garden with Nangong Jiuzhong, but encountered a large number of victims on the way, and Jian Huaizhen was extremely surprised.

When the victims saw someone coming, they surrounded them, and Jian Huaizhen couldn't bear it, so he took out the money and gave it to one person.

When the other victims saw this, they also followed Jian Huaizhen and came to ask for things and money.

After a while, Jian Huaizhen's side was full of people.

Jian Huaizhen loved and pitied these people around him, so he took out all the money and silver around him and gave them to these victims.

After receiving Jian Huaizhen's help, the victims were grateful.

It's just that the hungry homeless people are getting bigger and bigger, and they are soon overwhelmed.

Jian Huaizhen had to order Nangong Jiuzhong, who came with him, to go back and fetch the silver.

Nangong Jiuzhong responded and left.

Seeing that Jian Huaizhen was so generous, the victims were grateful, so they gathered around Jian Huaizhen to thank her.

Jian Huaizhen was about to ask where these victims came from, when the crowd of victims suddenly stirred.

"Oh no, the people from the government came here again last time. Run, everybody. "I don't know who shouted among the victims.

When Jian Huaizhen looked up, he saw a team of soap officials in the distance, and when he looked at it from afar, it turned out to be some well-dressed people.

These men came to the front with a fierce attitude, brandishing whips to threaten the remaining victims.

The people of the public family naturally did not dare to resist, so they had to swallow their anger and leave.

Nangong Jiuzhong, who was sent by Jian Huaizhen to help the victims, just rushed back, so he wanted to step forward to stop it.

Jian Huaizhen didn't want Nangong Jiuzhong to get involved in this matter, so he didn't allow her to do so.

When these powerful soap officials arrived in front of Jian Huaizhen, they said to Jian Huaizhen: "Girl, you are also a child of a good family, why bother with these disaster victims, go back quickly, don't meddle in your affairs." ”

Nangong Jiuzhong heard that these people were talking lightly, so he wanted to step forward to stop them.

"Blind your dog's eyes, do you know who the person before you is, she is the ...... today." Nangong Jiuzhong wants to disclose the identity of Jian Huaizhen's eldest princess.

"Kuju, there's no need to say it." Jian Huaizhen spoke.

Nangong Jiuzhong has always been respectful to Jian Huaizhen, and he will not disobey orders at all, so when he heard Jian Huaizhen's words, Nangong Jiuzhong stopped talking.

Those officials also saw from the clothing and demeanor of Jian Huaizhen and Nangong Jiuzhong that these people were by no means ordinary people.

People with official status naturally understand that these people in front of them are just afraid that they are not ordinary people, so they naturally dare not be presumptuous.

Nangong Jiuzhong said: "Forget about your expulsion of the victims today, if you let me wait to see you in the future, you will never be spared." ”

After Nangong Jiuzhong finished saying this, the identity of the official office was not sure of the details of Jian Huaizhen and Nangong Jiuzhong, and he didn't dare to offend and offend, so he had to leave stupidly.

After Jian Huaizhen and Nangong Jiu saw that the people in the official office had left, they went to Huaiming Yuan together.

Fang Xiaohao and Jiang Shaoheng are all in it.

After a few people met, Jian Huaizhen told a few of them about today's events.

After hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Fang Yu and Jiang Shaoheng and the others discussed it, and they all felt that the number of victims in Jingshi had increased, and it was obvious that Henan's disaster relief was unfavorable, so that the number of victims increased unabated.

Fang Xiao was even more indignant, he spent a lot of time walking on the rivers and lakes in his early years, so Fang Xiao opened his mouth and said: "According to my thoughts, I am afraid that the people sent by the imperial court to provide disaster relief are not doing well, and the disaster relief money and food have not arrived in Henan." ”

Hearing this, Jian Huaizhen felt a little strange.

Jian Huaizhen clearly remembered that last month, Ming issued an edict ordering Li Kelin, the former governor of Henan, to preside over disaster relief, and the imperial court also allocated a large amount of special money.

"I'm afraid that things are a little strange, and from the current situation, there are more and more victims in Jingshi, but I'm afraid that there will be another reason in the future." Nangong Jiuzhong said from the side.

Jiang Shaoheng was the most serious, and he groaned slightly, and then slowly spoke: "The reason for this matter is still unknown, but it is not difficult to get the exact news." ”

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, he asked, "What is Brother Jiang's opinion?" ”

Hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Jiang Shaoheng spoke: "Judging from the current situation, as long as you send people to investigate the disaster victim settlements in various places in the soldiers' land, you can know the situation of the disaster victims in Henan, and you can also know from these disaster victims what the current disaster relief situation in Henan is. ”

Hearing Jiang Shaoheng's words, everyone else thought it was a pretty good idea.

Nangong Jiuzhong took the initiative to ask Ying, saying that he would send his subordinates out to visit.

Jian Huaizhen also felt that the confession door presided over by Nangong Jiuzhong was the most wide-ranging, and it was the most appropriate to find out the news, so he handed over the matter to Nangong Jiuzhong for disposal.

At the same time, Jian Huaizhen also felt the need to personally find out how the people were doing, so he decided to go and see in person after learning which places were where the victims lived.

The confession door is really accessible, and within a day, there is news that most of the victims in Henan are in the Sangong Temple.

After hearing the news, Jian Huaizhen and Nangong Jiuzhong jointly set out to visit the victims in Henan at the Sangong Temple.

After a cadre of people brought food to the Sangong Temple, they realized that there were too few things to bring.

The black people around the Sangong Temple were the victims, and Jian Huaizhen ordered people to give all the things they brought to these hungry people, and these hungry people were extremely happy after getting food.

It's just that for some reason, the people below went to find out the news, and these victims fought to the death.

Jian Huaizhen and Nangong Jiuzhong both felt that there was something strange in this matter.

Asking for news but no one is willing to say it, which is naturally an extremely strange thing.

In the end, as a last resort, Nangong Jiuzhong had to reveal Jian Huaizhen's identity.

Nangong Jiuzhong found a few victims and claimed to them that Jian Huaizhen was a princess, and one person was above ten thousand. This time, the emperor and the like came out to observe the people's feelings.

As soon as Nangong Jiuzhong's words came out, the victims were still skeptical.

Later, under the half-temptation and half-coercion from Ainangong Jiuzhong, a Henan disaster victim who had his leg broken finally told what happened.

So that's what happened.

This refugee with a broken leg said a lot of things, including many officials, and said that his leg was broken by leading the villagers and the court to provide relief for the disaster.

This refugee's words made Nangong Jiuzhong and Jian Huaizhen feel very thrilled, this person said that the whole of Henan from the governor down, all of them were corrupt, the money and grain were exploited layer by layer, and there was not much left in the hands of the victims, and the grain was inferior rice mixed with stone sand, which would eat the dead, so more victims fled the famine. Some of the victims of the disaster collectively went to Beijing to file a complaint with the emperor and mistakenly reported to Shi Heng. Almost all of the victims were killed, and the few who remained were crippled.

After hearing these accounts, Jian Huaizhen only felt righteous indignation.

"The eldest princess, Shi Heng and his nephew are really too deceitful, and they actually did this to the refugees." Nangong Jiuzhong said to Jian Huaizhen.

"It's not just that he deceives people too much, this Li Kelin is simply disobedient to the emperor. The court treated him so kindly, and ordered him to preside over disaster relief, but he didn't expect him to do such a thing, wanting to cover the eyes and ears of the world, but I am afraid that it will not be possible. Jian Huaizhen was extremely indignant.

Nangong Jiuzhong was also extremely angry and said: "It is precisely this, Li Kelin, a bastard boy, relied on Shi Heng's power, as soon as he took office as the new governor of Henan, he only cared about prestige and fortune, and looted the people's fat and ointment. Now I don't know what method I have used, but I have turned into a disaster relief messenger, but I don't want to repent, and I have reverted to my old state, which is simply innocent. Miss, do you want me to send a disciple of the Confession Sect to cut this person off? ”

Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's words, Jian Huaizhen stopped him and said, "There is no need to be like this, judging from the current situation, it is not the right time." ”

"Miss, when is the right time?" Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said.

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly and said: "The right time has to wait and see, the matter is not clear at the moment, it is not a good thing to act rashly, if you startle the snake, maybe you will be eaten back." ”

"Miss means to let this person go for now." Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said.

Jian Huaizhen nodded and said: "It's not that I don't report it, the time has not come, the current situation is not clear, it is inconvenient to move Li Kelin, not to mention that Li Kelin has his uncle Shi Heng behind him, if there is no tangible evidence of the crime, it is inconvenient to control it."

Hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said: "Judging from the current situation, Li Kelin really doesn't shed tears when he doesn't see the coffin, and he dares to rebel against the saint's disaster relief intentions, which is simply heartless. ”

Jian Huaizhen then spoke: "This matter is not bad at all, from the current situation, the matter in Henan is quite complicated, whether Li Kelin has used the power of disaster relief to enrich his own pockets, it is still unknown at the moment, but there seems to be no suspicion that there are major mistakes in Henan disaster relief." ”

"What Miss said is that it seems that it is still a little early to do it now, and it should be clearer and clearer before you can do it." Nangong Jiuzhong said to Jian Huaizhen.

"Yes, that's exactly what I said." Jian Huaizhen nodded and said.

Hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said, "Miss, next step, how should we behave." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said: "If you want to deal with Li Kelin, the way to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle is to win the emperor first, as long as the emperor thinks that the disaster relief in Henan is very flawed, it will be much easier for us to attack Li Kelin." ”

"It's still Miss who thinks clearly, right now Li Kelin is the minister of the Imperial Mission, if there is no emperor's will, it is really not appropriate to move him." Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said.

Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's words, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth and instructed Nangong Jiuzhong: "The details of the disaster relief in Henan still need to be carefully examined, Jiuzhong, you first go back and order some disciples of the Confession Sect to continue to visit, and be sure to find out how to find out the details of the disaster relief in Henan." ”

"Yes, Miss, don't worry, there are many disciples under the Confession Sect who are all masters." Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said.

When Jian Huaizhen heard this, he bowed his head and said: "This is very good, as long as the truth about the disaster relief in Henan is ascertained, things will be much easier in the future." ”

Nangong Jiuzhong replied in response: "What Miss said is extremely true, and the best way to do it right now is like this." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled and said: "Whether this method is the best method or not, this princess doesn't know at the moment, and it is not enough to find out the details and clarity of this Henan disaster relief, and it must not be saved to visit and investigate." Only after the details have been ascertained can it be easy to deal with the bottom bottom. ”

When Nangong Jiuzhong heard this, he opened his mouth and said: "What the eldest princess said is that after the Jiuzhong Society confessed to the love gate, it immediately arranged for people to investigate this matter in detail. ”

Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's words, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth and said, "Okay, this matter will be handed over to Jiuzhong and you will be responsible for cooking." ”

Hearing this, Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said, "The eldest princess has orders, and Jiuzhong naturally obeys the orders." ”

Jian Huaizhen said: "Okay, you go to handle this matter first, and the princess will go to the palace for the first time to meet the emperor." ”

Hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said: "Since the eldest princess wants to deal with it like this, judging from the current situation, the emperor is afraid that he still doesn't know that the disaster relief in Henan is getting worse and worse. ”

As soon as Nangong Jiuzhong's words came out, Jian Huaizhen nodded slightly when he heard this, and then spoke: "It's man-made, even if the emperor is very isolated about the disaster relief situation in Henan, this princess also has a way to let the emperor know about it." ”

Nangong Jiuzhong heard Jian Huaizhen's words, so he spoke: "Since the eldest princess has said this, it is not difficult to think about it. Then the nine folds went back first. ”

Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's words, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth and said: "That's fine, quickly go back to the confession door to prepare for this matter, and when the time comes, the matter of Henan disaster relief will be clarified, and the matter will be simple." If you want to convict Li Kelin, there is also evidence to rely on. ”

"What the eldest princess said is very true, and only now can Li Kelin be punished if the evidence is found first." Nangong Jiuzhong said to Jian Huaizhen.

"Kue is right, that's exactly what he said." Jian Huaizhen said to Nangong Jiuzhong.

"The eldest princess, Jiuzhong has taken his leave first." Nangong Jiuzhong said to Jian Huaizhen.

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you have to be careful with the nine folds. ”

Nangong Jiuzhong said yes: "Jiuzhong knows." The eldest princess must act at the right time when she goes to see the emperor this time, if the emperor has no intention of punishing Li Kelin, she doesn't have to force it, she can't clean up Li Kelin this time, and she still has a chance in the future. ”

Jian Huaizhen heard Nangong Jiuzhong's words, so he nodded and said, "This matter is also simple. ”

Nangong Jiuzhong smiled and said: "Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that the disaster relief in Henan will only be able to act until the emperor's decree." However, as long as the eldest princess is out of the horse, the matter is extremely simple. ”

Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's words, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth and said: "I hope this matter is satisfactory, if not, I am afraid that things will not be good." ”

Hearing this, Nangong Jiuzhong nodded and said: "What the eldest princess said is very true, I think the power behind Li Kelin is not small, Shi Heng is an extremely treacherous traitor, Li Kelin has his protection, I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult to deal with." ”

Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's words, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth and said: "This matter is not ordinary, although Li Kelin has a backer, and this backer is still the powerful Shi Heng in the court, but Shi Heng is also supported by the emperor in the back, as long as the emperor is moved, even Shi Heng has no way to obstruct the imperial court from investigating the unfavorable matter of Henan disaster relief." ”

"What the eldest princess said is very true, judging from the current situation, this matter is just as the eldest princess said, if you want to bring down Li Kelin, you just need to move the emperor. Once the emperor is moved, Shi Heng wants to obstruct this matter, but also takes into account the face of the court and the emperor, and never dares to act recklessly. Nangong Jiuzhong echoed.

Hearing Nangong Jiuzhong's words, Jian Huaizhen opened his mouth and said: "This matter is not bad at all, if the emperor orders to investigate the disaster relief in Henan, even if Shi Heng wants to stop it in his heart, he can't." Jiuzhong, you quickly go back and organize people to investigate this matter thoroughly, as long as you find out about the disaster relief in Henan, you can also suggest that Li Kelin be replaced in front of the emperor. ”

When Nangong Jiuzhong heard this, he said: "It's best to bring Li Kelin to justice, and the eldest princess will go back to the confession door to prepare for this matter first." ”

Nangong Jiuzhong was about to say goodbye to Jian Huaizhen, but Jian Huaizhen took her hand and said: "Remember, it is not appropriate to startle the snake at the moment, so you can only let the disciples of the Confession Sect inquire secretly, and don't leak the news so that Shi Heng and the others will notice about it." ”

"The eldest princess, please rest assured, there are quite a few disciples under the confession sect who are proficient in detecting the news, the eldest princess has an order, and the disciples under the confession door naturally dare not slack off, and after the disciples under her command investigate clearly, Jiuzhong will come to report this matter to the eldest princess."

Jian Huaizhen nodded and said: "If there is conclusive news of the disaster relief in Henan, Jiuzhong will go to Huaimingyuan to find me, Fang Xiao and Jiang Shaoheng are sitting over there, if I am not there, I can discuss with the two of them first." ”

Hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said, "The eldest princess, please rest assured, Jiuzhong can save this matter." If the disciples found out what news, they would immediately inform the eldest princess. ”

Jian Huaizhen said to Nangong Jiuzhong: "Don't let go of the disaster settlement area in Jingshi, the more detailed the news is, the better." ”

Hearing Jian Huaizhen's words, Nangong Jiuzhong opened his mouth and said: "What the eldest princess said is extremely true, judging from the current situation, things are not bad at all. The Nine Folds will instruct his disciples to listen carefully to this matter. ”
