"Li Biao, since you came to deliver the letter, what should your family in Qingqu County do?"

Chen Mu suddenly thought of this question.

Since Li Biao has already encountered the matter of exterminating his mouth on the road, I am afraid that this matter has leaked out.

Isn't Li Biao's family and the master who still stays in Qingqu County......

"His Royal Highness Prince Xie cares, before the villain left Qingqu County, the master had already left Dongyuan with our two families, and everything is fine now."

He is worthy of being a person with brains, and he is really thoughtful.

"In that case, you should stay in my house first, and then make arrangements after the incident subsides."

After settling Li Biao, Chen Mu hurriedly went to find Chen Xingtian with the letter.

Judging from the content revealed in this letter, I am afraid that the people of Dongyuan will not get anything from this disaster relief.

Most of the money went into the officials' own pockets.

This is not a trivial matter, and Chen Xingtian must be told.

Unexpectedly, after Chen Xingtian read the letter, he looked suspicious.

"Not long ago, I received a recital from the magistrate of Dongyuan, saying that this disaster relief went very smoothly, and the people are grateful to the imperial court."

"What I saw was very different from what I saw in this letter."

"Could it be that this master and Li Biao have joined forces to ......?"

Chen Mu didn't have the heart to listen to the words anymore.

Now he just wants to hit Chen Xingtian on the head with a stick to make him sober up.

What kind of master would get into the water in his brain and use such a stupid method to slander his own officials?

Who would have risked so much to send a letter slandering an official?

If it weren't for being forced to a certain extent, ordinary people would not even have the courage to write such a letter!

As for the high-sounding nonsense that officials say in their letters, they are nothing more than polite words used in officialdom.

It's just for your emperor!

How could this Chen Xingtian drill into it by himself when he saw the set!

"If you don't believe me, send someone to Dongyuan for a secret visit."

Chen Xingtian nodded, as if he knew it in his heart, but the words he said made Chen Mu feel speechless.

"Tomorrow morning, I will select a competent official to go to Dongyuan to verify."

If it weren't for his identity, Chen Mu would have thrown him out of the room by the collar by Chen Xingtian by now.

Could it be that the IQ of the ancients was so low?

What is an unannounced visit? An unannounced visit is not to let others know!

If you make a big show in the court tomorrow, won't those officials prepare in advance?

Chen Xingtian also saw Chen Mu's face becoming extremely ugly.

“…… So what do you think it should be? ”

"Send confidants to make private interviews, secretly visit the people, and collect evidence."

Chen Mu almost gritted his teeth and said this.

"Don't make a noise, lest someone take advantage of it."

If Chen Xingtian still doesn't listen to it if he says it so clearly, then it's okay if he, the prince, doesn't do it.

Anyway, sooner or later, the country will be buried.

Fortunately, Chen Xingtian was not confused to that point.

"And who do you think you should send?"

That's a problem.

The officials selected this time were extraordinary.

First of all, those officials who usually get close to Master Zhang are naturally not good.

If they were chosen, Master Zhang would definitely know the news as soon as possible.

Secondly, the wall grass that is only promised on weekdays is not good.

These officials may seem ordinary and ordinary, but there is actually a high chance that they will be bought.

Finally, neither can those who are not strong enough.

The stakes are very high, and the danger is not small, and if the evidence is not collected, it will be worth the loss if you lose your life again.

In the end, after thinking about it, there seems to be only one suitable candidate.

"Myself."

Chen Xingtian looked at him with some surprise.

"Do you mean to personally visit Dongyuan privately?"

Chen Mu nodded.

The only person who can be 100% relieved about this matter is himself.

Seeing that Chen Xingtian seemed to be a little hesitant, Chen Mu spoke again to persuade him.

"Think about it, if what Li Biao said in that letter is true, the people of Dongyuan are only afraid of complaining at the moment."

"The money and food for disaster relief have all gone into the pockets of corrupt officials, are you relieved?"

After all, Chen Xingtian is not a senseless king, it is about the people, and he has become serious.

"It's okay, then I'll let you go to Dongyuan to collect evidence this time."

"I give you the power to cut first and then play, but you must not abuse it, and you must not declare personal vendettas."

"Everything is for the sake of the people, and everything is done impartially."

That's what you want!

Chen Mu immediately agreed, and after returning home, he told Li Biao about the matter.

"This secret visit to Dongyuan, in order to avoid people's eyes, I will only take you alone."

"Didn't you say you would do some punches? If you can keep me safe this time, I will promote you to the capital. ”

Li Biao is also thinking about his hometown, so he naturally agreed.

Hearing that Chen Mu was going to go far away, Liu Susu was a hundred worried.

"Do you have to go to such a dangerous thing yourself?"

Liu Susu's tone was a little disgusting.

"You are the crown prince, what do you want to do and tell your ministers to go down and do it soon."

Chen Mu shook his head. On the other side, Chen Mu took Li Biao out of the capital, day and night, and rushed to Dongyuan at full speed.

Along the way, Li Biao told Chen Mu about Dongyuan in detail.

It turns out that the magistrates in the Dongyuan area have not been corrupted once or twice.

Collecting miscellaneous taxes is also a regular practice among local officials.

What's more, they will also withhold the farmers' spring seeds, causing the local people to complain.

Occasionally, there are officials who want to ask for the people's lives, but their recitals are often suppressed if they don't reach the capital.

It won't be long before they themselves will be dismissed and investigated by their superiors for all sorts of strange reasons.

"This time the stakes are very high, and the officials protect each other, if you send officials, I'm afraid it won't make a difference."

"This time, only if I personally go out to wipe out these corrupt officials!"

That night, Chen Mu took Li Biao with him, and the two left the capital at night.

According to Chen Mu's prior arrangement, Chen Xingtian announced to the ministers that the prince was unwell and was recuperating in the palace.

The Prince's Mansion also refused all visits on the grounds that the Prince's illness had been lodged.

In order to let a few people relax their vigilance, Chen Xingtian also deliberately praised Master Zhang.

said that the officials he recommended were well-behaved and the disaster relief was quite effective, and the people of Dongyuan were grateful to Dade.

Even the emperor said this himself, and Lord Zhang's hanging heart gradually relaxed.

That's right, he just saw the opportunity for the prince to be in power this time, so he took the risk and wanted to do a big deal.

In the eyes of Master Zhang, Chen Mu is just a young man, and there must be some omissions in suddenly taking over so many state affairs.

And if he takes this opportunity to make a move, I'm afraid that the prince who is still inexperienced will not notice anything at all.
