"Oh, I see. That brown did say the wrong thing. Thank you Uncle San for your correction. After Wang Brown finished speaking, he also gave Wang Yuxun a deep salute.

Wang Jibao looked at Wang Brown and said with relief: "It's good to know that you're wrong." If you want a racetrack, it's not impossible? After a few days, my aunt will accompany you to the suburbs to see if there is a suitable place that can be converted into a racecourse. ”

"Good. When the time comes, Brown will definitely practice martial arts seriously and practice horseback riding. Wang Brown nodded obediently and reassured.

"Well, it's poor Brown's pony. It's a little longer in the past few days, and it is estimated that it won't be long before I lose weight again. Wang Jibao said jokingly.

"Little aunt." Wang Brown pouted in strong protest.

Wang Jibao changed the topic with a smile: "Okay, let's get ready for dinner." ”

"Okay. I'm hungry. Wang Brown said excitedly.

As soon as the kid talked about eating, he forgot what had just happened.

Wang Yuxun looked at Wang Jibao and then at Wang Palm.

For a moment, he froze in place.

This is the feeling of home, just your own home.

He suppressed the strong feeling in his heart and happily had dinner with Wang Jibao and Wang Brown.

If it was in the past, he had always pursued the purpose of eating and sleeping silently. But I saw Wang Jibao and Wang Brown talking and laughing while eating and feeding each other. Wang Yuxun made the god send his bowl to Wang Jibao.

Wang Jibao looked at Wang Yuxun inexplicably. It's not that Wang Jibao reacts slowly, but that her brother has always followed the rules.

Wang Yuxun didn't speak, just glanced at Wang Xiaofat, who was trying to eliminate the rice bowls that had been piled up.

Wang Jibao pulled the corners of her mouth, and then put a chopstick on the fish that Wang Yuxun didn't like to eat the most and put it in his bowl.

After that, he looked at Wang Yuxun provocatively.

Wang Xiaopang was still on the side to help: "Third uncle, my little aunt said that fish and chicken are the most nutritious things. But why don't you like it? No wonder you're so skinny. ”

Wang Yuxun felt helpless and stuffed the fish in his bowl into his mouth, then frowned, picked up the teacup and swallowed it.

He really didn't like the smell of fish.

Wang Jibao looked at Wang Yuxun with amusement as he swallowed the fish in his mouth, but the fish bones on it had been removed, otherwise it might have stuck in his throat.

Wang Jibao asked Liangchen to pour Wang Yuxun a glass of boiled water.

"Quick, rinse your mouth. If you don't want to eat, don't push yourself. ”

Wang Yuxun didn't speak, picked up the cup and poured a big mouthful, closed his mouth and rinsed his mouth. His new servant, Green Water, hurriedly brought a small urn and told him to spit mouthwash into it.

Wang Xibao hurriedly asked Liangchen to change him with a new pair of chopsticks.

This time, Wang Jibao didn't tease him again, but gave him a few bites of the green vegetables he was most willing to eat.

Wang Brown looked at his third uncle funny, and said while eating meat in his mouth: "Third uncle, you are too picky eater, this is not good." After saying this, he shook his little head and said, "It's not good." ”

Wang Yuxun looked at Wang Brown and said coldly: "Swallow the food in your mouth when you eat." ”

Wang Brown hurriedly nodded.

Wang Jibao felt that Wang Xiaochubby was not afraid of death, and he dared to make fun of his third uncle. As soon as Wang Yuxun gave him a good face, he forgot the nature of his third uncle.

In fact, Wang Brown dared to make fun of Wang Yuxun because Wang Jibao could support him by his side. Usually borrow his guts, but he doesn't dare!

After the meal, Wang Yuxun left Wang Jibao behind, and called Lu Yuan and his two masters.

One of these two masters is a criminal master, who is in charge of investigating the case. One is the master of money and grain, who helps Wang Yuxun manage money and grain.

"Regarding the accounts of the counties in Linbei Prefecture, I don't know what a few people think?" After a few people sat down, Wang Yuxun asked.

After eating, Wang Jibao usually has to take a walk for a while to digest food. used to be accompanied by Zhu Linxi, but after Zhu Linxi left, she did not change this habit.

So he said embarrassedly to a few people: "I'm standing next to me and strolling, and you guys are thinking and chatting slowly." ”

After saying that, he stood up and walked back and forth behind the chair he was sitting on.

At the same time, she was constantly thinking about this question in her head.

Ten years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver.

Not to mention being a prefect, that is, being a prefect of a county for a few years has not been greedy.

The former prefect, they also sent someone to investigate, on the surface it seems to be mediocre and incompetent, but in fact, there is no less greed for ink behind the scenes. This time, because he committed something, he was deposed by Emperor Yongsheng.

After Wang Yuxun came here, the officials here did not give their predecessors a lot of sloppy eyes, and it is estimated that they were not less greedy.

But Wang Yuxun did not come here to investigate and deal with the case of his predecessor's embezzlement of ink.

First, he wanted to be a magistrate for a few years, so that he could accumulate experience for himself. Second, Emperor Yongsheng sent him here mainly to investigate another case.

If Wang Yuxun is now too entangled in his predecessor's greed for ink, it is very likely that he will be shocked. But if this matter is not investigated, it is possible that the other party will frame him at any time, so that he will lose his official position.

Liu Wenfei was the first to speak: "My lord, you are right that you didn't check those accounts today. I think that those accounts were also sent over after they were done by the magistrates and counties in various places. There should be no problem in the accounts. ”

Liu Wenfei is the master who helped Wang Yuxun take charge of money and grain. He is a man from a high background, six out of forty this year, and once served as a county official for several years, but then had to resign because of filial piety. As soon as the three-year filial piety period has passed, it will be even more difficult for him to make a comeback.

Later, he was introduced to Wang Ziyi as a staff member for several years, and this time he came to serve as a money and grain master with Wang Yuxun.

Yang Molin also nodded and said, "My lord, I think it is necessary for us to go down there and check it carefully." ”

He is now Wang Yuxun's criminal master. This year, he is also in his early forties, he is a showman, and he is relatively good at criminal law.

Wang Yuxun nodded in agreement.

He looked at Lu Yuan again.

Lu Yuan pondered for a while and said, "What the two masters said makes sense. First of all, what about those account books, don't check them. It must have been sent over to them after they had already made fake accounts. Secondly, if you don't want to be framed by the other party in the future, you can only re-investigate. The best way to do that would be to redraw the accounts and seal all the old accounts. In the future, if we want to check or check the accounts with the next prefect, we only need to match the accounts we will do later. ”

Wang Yuxun also had this idea, so he asked those county commanders to settle accounts there during the day, and he watched.

Among them, there is also a magistrate who is Lu Yuan's second son, Lu Hongwei.

Lu Hongwei had just taken office, and he was not familiar with his predecessor's accounts, so he also rechecked the accounts there with everyone.

"So how are we going to re-register these accounts?" This is a question that Wang Yuxun has been thinking about.

"Go to the seven counties and verify them one by one." Liu Wenfei suggested.

Yang Molin nodded and said, "We can only let our people check by themselves, and we can't use their people." ”

Lu Yuan said: "This can also be faked. ”

Liu Wenfei looked at Lu Yuan and said, "What does Lord Lu mean?" ”

Lu Yuan thought for a while and said, "If we go to check the first county, then the people in the first county can temporarily lend the money and grain of the remaining counties to fill its shortfall." If we check the second county, then they can also plug this deficit from other counties. And so on. In the end, we checked seven counties, and the results showed that there was no discrepancy in the money and grain in these seven counties. But in fact, how many of these seven counties plus how many counties are right? I'm afraid we won't know then. In the future, if those people want to sue us, they will have more power now. ”

Everyone nodded in understanding. yes, there's a lot more to be done here.

When Liu Wenfei was a county magistrate, he also helped the county magistrate at that time to plug the deficit.

Wang Jibao added while everyone was thinking: "You have to carefully check their grain storage." It may be shoddy. It's even full of moldy grain, or sand and gravel. I've heard that there are a lot of granaries that have problems stocking up on grain. ”

Wang Xibao has seen a lot of such news in the Di newspaper. Every time I go to the government to relieve the disaster and release grain, I always find that the grain in the granary is either moldy or full of sand and gravel.

Wang Xibao's words made everyone fall into deep thought for a while.

In the end, Wang Yuxun made a decision: "The seven counties sent people to investigate at the same time, so that they could write all the confessions clearly." Finally, the confessions of all the people are compared together, and the truth and falsehood are immediately visible. ”

Lu Yuan nodded and said, "But the problem is that including Bao Mei, there are only five of us." There are still two left. ”

Wang Yuxun thought about it, and he could call Wang Yuze and Xia Lixuan to help, but it was a bit unjustifiable.

Wang Jibao opened his mouth and said, "Ask the second senior brother to check a county that is not under his jurisdiction." There are six of us. We can check six counties at the same time, and we can't leave one of them. Moreover, the county can also send someone to jail them first. It is best that the last remaining county is closer to Linbei Fucheng, and whoever checks it first can go back and check this county again. ”

Wang Yuxun smiled slightly: "This is a good idea. ”

"By the way, the third brother, the garrison of each county will also be imprisoned, although the military and politics are not allowed to be mixed together. But I guess they've been in the same boat for so many years. Although we can ignore that part for the time being, we can't prevent someone from jumping out and making an obstruction. Wang Jibao remembered that Shen Tongzhi was a civil official, and his son actually set up a garrison here as a general. This father and son are officials in the same place, so it's no wonder if there is no cat in it.

The water here is really mixed! It's really impossible to say when they will be able to return to Yongdu.

"We don't have many people." Wang Yuxun had to tell the truth.
