Chapter 520: The Military Rations Case Settled
Xia Qingyang: "Looking at it this way, it seems that there are many officials sent by the Queen Mother. ”
"Yes. Many officials actually supported my other two imperial brothers in the past, so they have always been dissatisfied with Ren Fu's ascendancy. ”
"I see."
Then it's no wonder that Ren Fu asked Dai Qiao to investigate the military rations case.
This military ration case is actually very difficult to handle.
If they are not careful, the officials who are sent will either be angry and lose the support of the people. Either they will not be able to take back all the food and will be condemned.
Ren Fu sent Dai Qiao to deal with military rations, in fact, in order to find an excuse to dispose of this official who was not on his side.
If it weren't for this time, Ren Yi would just be able to fill up the grain and let Dai Qiao pay the difference, and Dai Qiao would probably be sent by Ren Fu when he went back.
"Ren Fu is taking power, we have to act quickly." Xia Qingyang Road.
Ren Yi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Speaking of which, is it up to you to talk about it?" How did you guess the existence of the rebels, and know their location? ”
Xia Qingyang hid all the parts that couldn't be said, and told Ren Yi the rest one by one.
"Go to the people's homes to find out the news, break into the prison, go out of the city alone, and visit the rebel camp at night......" Ren Yi admired it and looked at her a little helplessly, "I did so many things in one night, and I only told me when I succeeded, huh?" What if the rebels don't agree to cooperate, what if you get caught by the rebels? ”
"That's right, Your Highness has a reason to save me, and by the way, I led people to suppress them by force." Xia Qingyang smiled, "Time is pressing, it's too late to discuss." ”
"You really don't think of yourself as a girl." Ren Yi shook his head, "That's it, since it's already been agreed, then when things settle down, I'll go to the rebel army camp with you to have a look." ”
"Okay."
-
At noon, he beheaded a death row inmate with his face covered.
The people thought that Min was about to die. Several people who had come to find Xia Qingyang before went to the gate of the city lord's mansion to cry and shout.
The city lord Qiu Zun went out and told them impatiently that the eldest princess had already pleaded. The rest of the food was no longer collected from them, and it was all dependent on the face of the eldest princess.
The people wiped their tears and turned around, but they saw Xia Qingyang leaning on the street corner.
"Old man, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has also done her best. However, General Min has committed a big crime after all, in order not to affect the children of your families who join the army...... It's better not to make any more trouble. ”
Xia Qingyang's first sentence in front of her clearly hinted that she already knew about the rebel army.
This trick poked the old man Dong's backbone and made the old man's whole body freeze.
As an elder in the town, he obviously knew about the rebels.
It's just that he doesn't understand, since Xia Qingyang and they know everything, why don't they arrest them at this time, but they still come to remind them with kind words?
"You don't have to worry about General Min's death, the eldest princess will take care of it." Xia Qingyang came closer, patted Old Man Dong's arm, leaned on his ear and said, "Wait, it won't be long." ”
Old Man Dong was shocked again, looking at Xia Qingyang in disbelief and understanding.
"You, you...... Eldest princess, she ......"
"Shh
Xia Qingyang smiled, didn't say anything more, and after nodding goodbye to a few people, he left in hiding.
-
Later, after discussing with Xia Qingyang, Ren Yi decided to take General Min with him for the time being.
After all, externally, he is now a dead man, and if anyone finds out that Min Jiang is still alive, it is unknown what trouble it will cause.
Min will obviously be hit hard.
He saw the uprising too simply, and blindly felt that he was doing things for the people, and he should be protected and understood by the people, but he did not expect that in the end, he would be sold by the people he trusted.
Xia Qingyang's evaluation of this is that it would be good to let him walk around Ren Yi more and see more.
The child still sees too little.
"Saying that others are children is how old you are." Ren Yi couldn't help laughing.
Xia Qingyang thought to herself, that's not small, if you add up the two lifetimes, even the length of time with the copy, she is now older than Ren Yi.
Ren Yi: "Anyway, the soup kitchen stall is opened today." ”
Lin Menglong: "Yes, the queue has already been lined up, and Lao Lin and they are all busy." There is also Xuan Niang, who also sees a doctor for free for the people on the side. ”
Ren Yi looked at Xia Qingyang: "Let's go and see it too?" ”
"Nope." Xia Qingyang paused, "Since the matter of military rations has been settled, then I would like to ask His Highness to go to a place with me." ”
"Where?"
"But in the underworld."
Xia Qingyang had told Ren Yi about her grievances before, so when she mentioned the legend told by her uncle this time, Ren Yi's face immediately became solemn: "Okay, let's go, let's go now." ”
-
Xia Qingyang, Ren Yi and Lin Menglong rode out of the city.
The curfew is loose today.
On the road, scattered people can already be seen, going out of the city to dig wild vegetables.
But as the uncle said, the closer you get to the outskirts, the fewer people there are. No people from the city or nearby counties would come to the outskirts.
"By the way, this is the information that Lao Lin investigated yesterday, Fan Xi."
Ren Yi slowed down his horseback riding, took out a few thin pages of paper from his arms, and handed them to Xia Qingyang.
Xia Qingyang took it, unfolded it and took a look, only to see that it was classified according to the year and location, and all the information about Fan Xi that could be investigated was clearly listed.
Xia Qingyang somewhat understood why Ren Yi would take Lin Menglong with him.
She went straight to the record from eleven years ago.
Ren Yi saw that she was looking seriously, and also said: "The data shows that Fan Xi was the household registration officer of Quanling City eleven years ago, and he was in charge of all household registrations in all counties, towns, and villages in Quanling City. After Ren Fu succeeded to the throne, he transferred Fan Xi to the capital. ”
Yin Zuocheng also said the same thing yesterday, right.
Xia Qingyang's expression was solemn, and he patiently read all the information before he said: "If the legend is true, then we can now get such a story - eleven years ago, wars broke out, and in order to quell the trouble, some people secretly carried out sacrificial rituals in various parts of the Dachun Kingdom and slaughtered innocent people. Among them, Quanling City suffered the most, and the resentment was the heaviest, and Chichun City was affected.
In the next year, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the household registration officer of Quanling City was exceptionally recruited to the capital, and he stayed for ten years. At a time when the new emperor was planning to rectify the court and gather power, the household registration official was demoted due to his ineffective handling of the case. Less than a year later, he was assassinated in office. ”
Xia Qingyang and Ren Yi glanced at each other.
No matter how you look at it, it's like an extinction.
In this case, who sent someone to kill Fan Xi's family is no longer the point.
Maybe it's Ren Fu, maybe it's the officials involved in the relief grain case.
The point is that eleven years ago, only Fan Xi could do anything.
"It was Ren Fu who ordered the execution of the ceremony? As a household registration officer, Fan Xi helped him erase the evidence? Then why did Ren Fu do this? Lin Menglong asked.
