"You?"

Master Wei panicked, thinking of Qin Huaidao's recent achievements, it was really not difficult to kill his entire family.

Qin Huaidao saw that the fire was burning to sixty degrees, and it was still a little short of boiling, so he couldn't continue to use words to guide, he had to use the means, spread the wet yellow paper on the other party's face, slowly smoothed it with his hands, isolated the air, and continued: "Look, the official has no way out, either you provide something useful for the official to survive, and your whole family will not die, or the official will kill you now, and turn around and kill your whole family." ”

"Woooooo Master Wei shouted, but his voice was cut off by yellow paper.

Qin Huaidao said coldly: "No need to shout, it's useless, you only have two choices, either die now, or say something that satisfies the official, the official knows that you have a lot of knowledge, why die for others?" If you die, the people behind you will only rest assured, and will never protect your whole family, and of course, they can't save it. ”

After saying that, another piece of wet paper was pasted on.

Master Wei suddenly felt that it was difficult to breathe, uncomfortable, and struggled desperately, but his hands and feet were tied, and he couldn't shout, whining and screaming.

Qin Huaidao pasted another piece of paper, and said: "You can still support twenty breaths, you will definitely die after twenty breaths, if you want to live, blink your eyes, don't shout, it's useless to shout, if you don't want to live, forget it." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw the other party blinking desperately.

"Recruited, he is going to recruit." Cheng Chumo shouted excitedly.

Yu Chi Baolin also looked at Qin Huaidao excitedly, he didn't expect it to be so simple.

Of course, Qin Huaidao will not explain that psychology is involved, as well as human nature. Death is not terrible, but no one wants to be suffocated to death, the longer you hold it, the higher your desire to survive, not to mention that Qin Huaidao guided the other party not to him at the beginning, and also told the other party that he had no way out.

Who can really face death calmly?

Human nature is selfish, so why should we die for others?

Why should someone else still be alive if he dies, and he has to pay for the whole family?

Qin Huaidao thought that he could hold on for about ten seconds, but he didn't expect to admit it so quickly, he didn't have any literati at all, he opened the wet paper and said, "Say it, don't mention it if it's irrelevant." ”

The other party breathed heavily, like a bellows, and it took a while to recover, but his eyes were full of fear, and he hurriedly said: "I don't know if Lord Cui rebelled, but I know one thing, he is reselling grain from North Taicang." ”

Qin Huaidao's face changed greatly when he heard the news, North Taicang is located in Dongwei Bridge, and the grain in it is mainly used for royal consumption, rewards, hundreds of officials, military supplies and relief, and the scale is very large, and it is managed by the household department.

Reselling the grain of the court is a big crime, and it is tantamount to rebellion.

This news made Cheng Chu silently Yu Chi Baolin's face changed greatly, and they all looked at Qin Huaidao.

Qin Huaidao motioned for the two of them to be calm for a while, and asked coldly: "Master Wei, this matter can't be joked, wronging Lord Cui is a big crime, do you have evidence?" ”

"How can there be evidence of such a secret thing? A few days ago, the price of grain rose sharply, Lord Dai looked for the official, asked if there was any food to take out for disaster relief, to stabilize the price of grain, Xiaguan specially went to check, the number is obviously wrong, at least 300,000 stone is missing, the person in charge of Taicang in the north is the younger brother of a concubine of Lord Cui, called Zhou Yi, no one has a key except him. ”

Qin Huaidao asked, "Where is the grain that was transferred out hidden?" "His eyes became cold, and he actually resold the imperial court's reserve grain, he should be killed!

"It's time to put it in the market, the price of grain has been high recently, and you can make a lot of money."

"So much food is not afraid of exposure?" Cheng Chumo asked curiously.

"yes, this is going to kill the head." Yu Chi Baolin also agreed.

"Sell the grain at a high price, and the price of grain will drop after the beginning of spring, how much will be sold and bought back, and put it in the North Warehouse, who knows? Or new rice, don't worry about it breaking down for a long time, this kind of thing used to be done, and the silver sold by Lord Cui will share the profit for everyone, and the people in the household department don't say it, they will report it? Master Wei asked rhetorically.

Cheng Chumo was scolded by a rhetorical question: "What are you doing...... They should all be beheaded! ”

Yu Chi Baolin was also so angry that he looked at Qin Huai and said: "My lord, these bastards are too greedy, they sell high and buy low to make money, and they still use the grain of the imperial court, no wonder I heard my father say that the civil officials are against the relief of the victims, it turns out that the grain has been sold, and the straight mother is a thief, and Lao Tzu is going to kill him." ”

"Don't panic!" Qin Huaidao scolded and asked, "Master Wei, what's going on with the recent rise in grain prices, it's impossible for you not to know. ”

"Naturally, they also made it, as long as they prevent the imperial court from putting grain into the market, they can join forces not to release grain, create tension to raise the price of grain, and then slowly release it, hanging the price to make a profit."

Qin Huaidao understood, this skyrocketing grain price is a natural disaster and a man-made disaster, a little bit of release, not only to keep food prices rising, but also to prevent the people from making trouble due to lack of food, so it is easy to calculate.

What's even more ruthless is that it happens every year!

Manipulating the market, raising the price of grain, and then reselling the grain of the imperial court for profit, it is like a rebellion, Qin Huaidao originally just wanted to scare and scare him with some random charges, and then let the people go, and then go to Li Er to sue the household department for not giving the silver, and he had no choice but to come out next time, at most fifty boards each, and get back the back five thousand taels to finish.

It can not only establish its authority to the outside world, establish the prestige of the supervision office, but also get back the silver and obtain the support of the government guards, killing two birds with one stone, never expected to blow up a big fish.

Qin Huaidao found a pen and paper and quickly wrote down his confession, untied the ropes on Master Wei's body, signed and drew the charge, motioned for Liu Da to watch, and hurriedly returned to the main hall with Cheng Chumo and Wei Chi Baolin.

Yu Chi Baolin said excitedly: "I didn't expect it to be a big case, let's not count this as a crooked fight." ”

"No, it can only be regarded as lifting the lid, don't forget that this kind of thing happens every year, and it must involve the interests of many people, let's continue to investigate it is to be the enemy of the entire household, and there are even higher-level ones, causing huge trouble, affecting the family, are you afraid?" Qin Huaidao asked solemnly.

"I'm afraid of a fart, straight lady thief, we soldiers who fought with their lives, but let them suck the blood of these moths, and they can't sleep without killing them, brother, you say, what?" Cheng Chumo said resentfully.

"That's right, get them." Yu Chi Baolin also said angrily.

"Captain Chi Du obeys the order." Qin Huaidao shouted, his heart was full of relief, it was good that the blood was not cold.

Yu Chi Baolin felt that he should respond: "Please give an order." ”

"Take the people of the headquarters to rush to North Taicang quickly, and bring the corresponding people and account books back to me, who dares to stop it, kill it, go."

"Obey!" Yu Chi Baolin went excitedly.

"My lord, what about me?" Cheng Chumo was anxious when he heard that he had nothing to do.

"Take the people of the headquarters to Zhou Yi's hometown, in case the other party is not in North Taicang, and flee when he hears the news, bring his whole family back to me, check carefully, find the account book or other evidence, if there is resistance, kill him."

"Obey!"

Cheng Chumo excitedly agreed, rushed outside and yelled: "Brothers, assemble!" ”

Soon, the two rushed out of the Supervision Mansion with their respective people, and the remaining hundred people looked at each other, not knowing what was going on, but no one dared to come up and ask one or two.

Qin Huaidao didn't explain, he sat in the main hall and waited, thinking about the last time he caught Cui Shihai, Li Er asked him to stop checking Cui's family, will he stop it this time?
