Chapter 269: Terrifying Insight
Fan Yicheng's people really found this flaw, but after a little thought, he didn't say anything, but asked people to prepare silver.
Song Nian went to reply to Meng Xingci: "My lord, as you expected, Fan Yicheng did not endure it, and said that the silver would be sent over in the next few days." Adults are really clever and like gods. ”
A faint mocking smile appeared at the corner of Meng Xingci's mouth: "Jiangbei Group, it's really not as good as one generation." After a pause, she said indifferently: "If you get the silver, except for the repayment of the soldiers' salaries, the rest will be sent back to Yanhuiguan." ”
Song Nian replied loudly: "Yes!" The subordinates are going to prepare! ”
Meng Xing pouted, so although Song Nian came to her side to serve her and still held her moon silver, he still thought about Yan Huiguan in his heart.
Fan Yicheng also spent a lot of effort to raise this large amount of silver, and even began to sell a few shops, and united with several nobles to barely get together the silver.
The issue of repaying military salaries was carried out in the name of Prince An. Shenlong Ying and the soldiers of the Shenyuan Camp were all elated, and they were grateful to Lord An.
After this incident, Prince An eliminated a lot of Meng Xingci's mustard, and he knew that Meng Xingci's purpose in doing this was to save the image of the royal family.
For so many years, the brave and resolute marquis has treated the soldiers badly, and the soldiers must have a lot of resentment against the court in their hearts.
The soldiers who came to receive the silver lined up in a long line, Prince An personally distributed the silver to them, and Meng Xingci, Ye Xun and others watched the grand scene downstairs from the restaurant opposite.
Meng Xingci stretched his neck to look, "That one, he is very suspicious, you see that he is not interested in getting the silver at all, Shizi, you must check him out." ”
"And that, that, you see his fat head and big ears, at first glance, he is not short of money. So why didn't he lack money? That must have been bought! Ling Huan said seriously: "Xiucai, you go quickly, go and check on him." ”
Meng Xingci nodded very approvingly: "Ling Huan is right, it is indeed suspicious." Ling Huan's current insight ability is really powerful! ”
Ling Huan smiled shyly: "Really? I also feel that I have grown a lot recently, all because I have been around adults for a long time and have learned from adults. ”
Meng Xingci's smile became more and more gentle.
Huo Yu watched from the side and suddenly realized.
"In the past, my senior brother always told me that there will always be some traitorous villains around the emperor, who are the best at sneaking and slapping horses to make the emperor happy. I've only heard of it before, but now I've seen it. Huo Yu was very happy.
The traitor Linghuan said happily: "Isn't it very insightful to follow the adults? ”
Song Nian: "......"
Song Nian pulled Ling Huan away: "Don't say it, are you stupid?" ”
Ye Xun smiled, "What Lord Meng said is very true, and I also think those people are very suspicious. Xiucai, you and Xiaofei go check it out. ”
Song Nian looked at Ye Xun in disbelief, the prince actually followed them to mess around?
However, Song Nian still took the order and left.
Not to mention, Meng Xingci and Ling Huan's guesses are still very reasonable, and they really found out a few officials who were suspected of being bought.
Within a few days, Ye Xun found out that a large number of officials had property of unknown origin, and some people who lived extravagantly and did not match their income.
When Meng Xingci got the list, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
"This is pervasive, even the cooking soldiers." Meng Xingci's face turned pale.
If this is a war, a handful of crotons are placed in the meal, then what kind of war is there? Just tie your hands and forget it.
There are also those who are responsible for the transportation of grain and grass, and the officers who are in charge of weapons, although they are not important official positions, but they are very important.
The only thing Meng Xingci is glad about now is that there has been no war in Jiangbei these years, otherwise he doesn't know how much damage he will cause.
Ye Xun took the list and was about to go to Fan Yicheng: "Under his nose, there are so many people who have been bought by Zhao Xuan, and he, the brave and resolute marquis, is to blame!" ”
Meng Xingci thought for a while, and then said, "Don't go to Yongyi Hou, you go to Prince An." Jiangbei's affairs, don't meddle too much. ”
Ye Xun glanced at Meng Xingci, Ye Xun was ordered by the emperor to investigate Zhao Xuan this time, and it was not right to meddle in the military affairs of the Jiangbei Army. Originally, because of the military expenditure, Yongyi Hou had a lot of complaints about Ye Xun, and if he came to Xingshi to ask for guilt again, he was afraid that Yongyi Hou would be displeased.
The old Marquis of Yongyi has just passed away for only two years, even if Fan Yicheng makes a big mistake, Zhao Jin will not be able to dispose of the Marquis of Yongyi immediately. couldn't bring down Fan Yicheng, Meng Xingci didn't want Ye Xun to offend Fan Yicheng and grudge with him.
Meng Xingci was sincerely and cautiously planning for him, Ye Xun's heart warmed.
Ye Xun handed over the list to Prince An, and when Prince An saw it, he was immediately furious: "So many people have been bought, it's unreasonable!" After a pause, he said again: "But the people who were bribed were all petty officials, so Zhao Xuan didn't have any skills." ”
Ye Xun looked at him silently and didn't speak, and Prince An immediately realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.
Ye Xun said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang, the embankment of the Qianli River was destroyed in the anthill. The prince should not underestimate these petty officials, they will play a big role at critical moments. ”
Wang Ye An didn't understand, but he felt that he would seem to be quite uninformed when he asked, and he didn't want to expose his shortcomings. nodded solemnly: "What Ye Shizi said is very true, this matter must be severely punished." ”
Ye Xun said: "Then naturally this should be done by Fan Hou himself." ”
Prince An said very much: "Okay, then the king will go to him." After a pause, he gritted his teeth: "If he hadn't deducted military salaries, how could such a thing have happened?" More than six million taels of silver, he said that he took it out, which shows how much he was greedy for ink! ”
More than six million taels of silver, even if Zhao Jin wants to take it out, it is not easy. A marquis is even more arrogant than the son of heaven, and Prince An is even more dissatisfied with Fan Yicheng in his heart.
Wang Ye An immediately went to find Fan Yicheng, threw the list directly in front of him, and almost fell on his face.
Fan Yicheng's face was gloomy, and Prince An's face was gloomy than him: "Look at the good things you have done!" Zhao Xuan has bought so many people, and the embankment of the Qianli River was destroyed in the anthill, if it weren't for the timely arrival of this king, this Jiangbei would have to change his surname...... This Jiangbei is going to listen to Zhao Xuan! ”
Zhao Xuan is also surnamed Zhao, and he is still a brother of the same clan, and Prince An feels congested when he thinks of this.
Fan Yicheng bowed his head and confessed, "Lord Wang, it's his subordinates who don't notice ......"
"There are so many things you don't notice!" Prince An interrupted him mercilessly, "This is one by one, and this king is too lazy to count them with you." Since you don't check, Ye Shizi will help you find out, arrest and interrogate people according to the list, you can always do this, right? ”
Fan Yicheng's face changed, and he nodded: "The last general will definitely not disappoint the emperor and the prince, and the last general will definitely make the contribution." ”
