The soldiers of those families were divided into two ways, and some of them entered the palace and wanted to ask to see Lan Fenghuang and Meng Qing and others.

Let them blow the pillow breeze to Chen Mu to persuade Chen Mu.

Some people went to the people, wanting to let out the rumors, drive the people's hearts, and induce the people to oppose the decree proposed by Chen Mu.

It's a pity that those people are not stupid, and they are not easy to be shaken, and they can also see that the political and economic policies issued by Chen Mu are beneficial to them.

There are too many people who can't afford to buy books, who are hungry for literacy, for knowledge, for books, and hope to ascend to heaven through these things.

Seeing that the common people were difficult to be induced, everyone turned their attention to the palace.

However, Blue Phoenix, Meng Qing and the others also firmly supported Chen Mu, and no one was moved by what they said.

Chen Mu was also quite dissatisfied when he learned that there were still people in the family who intended to start with Meng Qing and Blue Phoenix.

He immediately asked people to investigate in the palace, caught those few family members who were acting in secret, and put them in prison to deter.

In this way, no one in Beijing is finally ready to move anymore.

And at this moment, the lord of the overseer's office, whom he sent to supervise the small northern city, also sent back the news.

Recently, in order to avoid his actions being targeted by everyone in the family, the lord who supervised the government simply changed into civilian clothes.

Disguised himself as an ordinary merchant or a common man, he went in and out of various cities, and probed the city.

The results were so good that the county guards and magistrates, who did not know that there was an overseer, brought people to their cities.

also acted according to the behavior and habits of the past, and many of them showed their feet, and they also let the adults who oversaw the government cook a lot.

In order to motivate the adults who supervised the government to slack off, Chen Mu also issued a decree in the supervision office.

If the amount of corrupt officials arrested by each batch of adults who supervise the government office reaches the standard set by him.

He will then provide the lords in the palace with the opportunity to be promoted.

At first, this decree was circulated only in the overseer's office, and it was only after the overseer's office that a batch of people in the overseer's office was replaced.

Those people in the capital also learned that Chen Mu was so determined.

Those families were very indignant, but they were helpless, Chen Mu was the prince after all.

They were powerless to disobey the royal family, so they could only be patient, and they all tightened their skins, and they didn't dare to show their feet at all.

Xu is because there has been no corrupt official caught by the overseer of the government during this time, and the county guard orders of the counties have begun to relax again.

Recently, most of the corrupt officials in Beijing who fell from power were Chen Mu who went to various places for private visits to Weifu, and found that something was wrong and went all the way up, and then arrested them.

The adults in the overseer's palace all remembered the secret decree issued by Chen Mu, and they were all quite hardworking.

Now, after going to a small city in the north, he immediately sent the news to the capital.

"According to the news sent by these adults, it was the officials of several small cities in the north who deducted the people's silver taels."

"No, it can't be said to be harsh, it should be said that it is a clear robbery, robbing the people of silver."

"Because you allocated money to those people some time ago to build earth fire dragons and fire kangs, most of those people's homes have the ability to warm themselves through the winter."

And the silver taels they used to accumulate every year to buy thick clothes were saved, and it was these silver taels that those corrupt officials were targeting.

Those corrupt officials did not send people directly to the homes of those people to rob the silver, but made up a reason, saying that they wanted to promote a batch of seeds that were researched by the Ministry of Agriculture.

It is said that the kind of food grown by the seed is not afraid of cold winds and heat, and can survive even if it encounters major disasters such as floods and droughts.

When the people heard this, they immediately began to think about it.

First a group of people in the city bought the seeds, and after going home and studying them, they spread the word in the city that the seeds were excellent.

When the rest of the people saw the seeds that had been bought, they praised the seeds, and they immediately thought about them and went to the merchants in the city to buy them.

The price of those seeds was extremely high, and some people even went to borrow money from other people in order to buy seeds for the next year's planting.

In this way, the merchant who sells the seed earns a great deal of silver, and as for the seed......

In fact, it is not as good as the first group of people who bought seeds advertised, although they can also grow rice.

But compared to the propaganda of the people, the survival rate of those seeds is extremely low.

After some people took the seeds back and studied them, they immediately realized that something was wrong.

"It is said that there are so many seeds that they can't even grow rice, and the people panic when they realize that they have been deceived."

"Many people gathered in one place, surrounded the merchant's mansion overnight, and lay in ambush outside the mansion for a long time, and when they saw that the merchant's family had not gone out or turned on the lamp, some people immediately realized that something was wrong."

Some people sneaked into the merchant's house and found that the merchant had run away with the money.

Up to this time, the people did not know that the man who had planned this was the magistrate of the city.

Hearing this, Chen Mu sighed and shook his head helplessly.

This can't be blamed on those people, apparently the county order bribed a group of people and let them deliberately spread rumors in the city.

Even if the matter is exposed, the people can say that the first seeds they bought are fine.

It's just that the second batch of seeds went wrong.

"The reason why those people realized that this matter was related to the county order was because they saw the son of the rich merchant entering and leaving the county order office."

"Although the son of the rich merchant wrapped himself tightly, he was recognized by the people of the city."

When the people of the city found out that the son of the rich merchant had appeared in the city, they immediately struggled with their men to capture the son of the rich merchant.

When the county magistrate learned of this, he also sent officials from the government to escort the son of the rich merchant out of the city.

"It is also because of the county order's move that the people in the city are sure that the county order and the merchant are in the same group."

"The overseer has already gathered the evidence, and now they have only gone to a slightly larger city."

"After collecting the evidence, they plan to go to other small towns to have a look, and it is said that several county commanders have joined forces with the rich merchant to create a scam to defraud the people of their money."

The silver was used by the people to buy winter supplies, and now that there are earth fire dragons and fire walls, those officials think that the people will not be frozen to death, and there will not be too much chaos.

So he began to covet the people's money with peace of mind.

"Because many people have spent all the money at home, and now the weather is getting colder and colder, and those people have no money left to buy supplies for the winter, and some people are already too cold to go out."

There was no money to buy thick clothes, no money to buy food, so I could only nest in that warm house and talk to get by.

Chen Mu frowned when he heard this, and sighed secretly.

After inquiring about the location of those cities, Chen Mu understood.
