Chapter 355: A Few Stories

The group was followed by an army of 500 people mobilized from the nearby Qianhu and marched to Yunyang County.

Li Changan did not take a cloud boat or a carriage, but rode a horse like everyone else, so that he could see the disaster situation in various places with his own eyes, and he would not only learn about the disaster situation through the file.

It took most of the day to rush to Yunyang County.

What he saw along the way made Li Changan frown fiercely.

The people close to the city have begun to move closer to the city, and the food for disaster relief there has also begun to be distributed.

But the closer you get to Yunyang County, the worse the situation of the people becomes.

There have even been cases of changing children and eating them.

Approaching Yunyang County, Li Changan stopped the team and began to change his appearance, and asked Xue Shiqing beside him by the way, "How is the situation in Yunyang County?" ”

Xue Shiqing was slightly stunned when he saw Li Changan's skillful disguise technique, but he still quickly reacted and replied,

"As mentioned in the dossier collected below, Yunyang County is the county with the largest number of people in the entire Pingyao Prefecture."

"So there's a lot of pressure on disaster relief."

"How much has the disaster relief money been distributed?" Li Changan asked.

Xue Shiqing said, "More than 500,000 taels have been allocated before and after. ”

Li Changan chuckled and shook his head, "But when we looked all the way, we didn't seem to see a single person who seemed to have received silver food for disaster relief." ”

"I'll take you as the leader later, and I'll be a secretary."

"Don't show your stuff."

Xue Shiqing and the others looked at it, "Senator, I'm just a secretary, why don't you find another person in charge?" ”

Li Changan waved his hand, "There's no need for this, your task is to eat and drink." ”

"I'm too lazy to listen to those people's sycophants, and I can hide a little clean."

As he spoke, he patted Xue Shiqing on the shoulder, and then pushed him to the first place, "Go." ”

Xue Shiqing's other chief ministers hugged their fists, and then led the team into the city.

The team of the Zhenfu Division really welcomed the warm welcome of the officials from all over the county.

Li Changan hung at the end of the team of the Zhenfu Division, looking at the disaster relief silver food being distributed around, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

The officials in front of them all bent over and smiled, and led the team of the Zhenfu Division to the yamen of the county seat.

The 500-strong army that came with the team was arranged in one place, while Li Changan and other eleven people were brought into the banquet hall that had been prepared long ago.

"Your lords have come from afar, and the lower officials have prepared a little wine to wash the dust for your lords." The Yunyang County Guard led a group of officials with a smile on their faces and said respectfully.

The crowd sat still.

The county guard brought the officials of Yunyang County to pay their respects.

"Xiaguan Yunyang County Guard has seen all of you."

"Xiaguan Yunyang County has seen all of you."

"Xiaguanping County County Order ......"

"Xiaguan Luwan County County Order ......"

……

A group of local officials finished saluting.

Xue Shiqing opened his mouth and asked, "Why didn't the county order of Zewu County come?" ”

The county guard hurriedly got up and explained, with a hint of sadness in his voice, "Zewu County ordered Zhang Weimin to die during the flood control......

"Zhang County's order is hard-working, diligent, and upright on weekdays, and the lower officials have already played the imperial court, and I implore the imperial court to reward Zhang County's order."

As soon as these words came out, other local officials responded one after another.

"Yes, Zhang Xianling's dedication to the people is admirable, and we all regard him as a mentor and friend......"

……

After a meal, the host and guest are happy.

Farewell to the officials of Yunyang County,

A group of eleven people came to the room, and soon a group of officials walked in with the dossier.

"My lord, these are part of the dossiers of the thirteen counties under the jurisdiction of Yunyang County, including tuntian, cultivation crop compilation, and so on."

When the servants are gone,

Li Changan patted the mountains of files in front of him, "Look for the files in Zewu County, and the situation of Zhang Weimin, the county commander of Zewu County." ”

Xue Shiqing pulled out a volume from the file in his hand, "My lord, do you think Zhang Weimin has a problem?" ”

"It could also be someone else's problem."

Li Changan smiled, "I have a few stories here, you might as well listen to them." ”

"First, the county guard of Yunyang County, as well as the fifteen chief officials including the thirteen county magistrates, jointly embezzled 500,000 taels of silver, and finally distributed the spoils unevenly, and one of them got the most and was killed by other red-eyed people."

"Second, one of the fifteen chief officials embezzled a large amount of disaster relief silver, was discovered by others, and then killed."

"Third, fifteen chief officers, one of them is alone, and the other fourteen people regard it as an outlier, so they take the opportunity to kill them."

"Which of these stories do you think sounds more interesting?"

The faces of everyone present suddenly became a little strange, and Xue Shiqing looked at Li Changan, "These stories are very interesting. ”

"But after today's meal, it shouldn't be possible that there will be only one bad guy."

"That's just as well." Li Changan nodded and opened the file, "I'm still thinking about a question." ”

"The chief official of a county has been dead for so long, where did the disaster relief silver food that should have been distributed go?"

"And where is the previous disaster relief silver food used......

One of the principals chuckled, "In that case, Yunyang County needs to check it out." ”

Xue Shiqing looked at Li Changan, "Is it possible that Zhang County Order really died of flood control?" ”

"Of course it's possible." Li Changan shrugged, "It's just that all this I saw today made me subconsciously a little suspicious." ”

"Outside the city and inside the city are completely different."

"And the people in the city seem to have only just received the silver food for disaster relief, more like they are showing us."

"After experiencing those things in Pingyao Mansion City, I have never been stingy to speculate on these magistrates with the worst thoughts."

Li Changan put down Zhang Weimin's file and looked at the ten people present,

"Your Excellency, go back and rest, and we'll start tomorrow."

One of the secretaries asked, "Senator, where are we going to consult the file tomorrow?" ”

"Access to the file?" Li Changan was surprised for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I took a look at Zhang Weimin's file. ”

"Zewu County is more than a hundred miles away from the county seat."

"Tomorrow we'll go to Zewu County."

The ten people didn't react at once, and they were all stunned.

"Senate...... My lord, are you going to Zewu County tomorrow? Isn't it a review of the dossier? ”

"You have to read the dossier, and of course, you have to visit the grassroots level in person." Li Changan found a comfortable position for himself, and picked up a dossier casually,

"Without an investigation, there is no voice."

"The file can only be a reference, how can you solve the problem just by looking at the file?"

The ten people present looked at each other, and one by one showed different colors, and then left with fists clenched.

"Xue Siwu stays for a moment." Li Changan said.

Wait for the others to leave.

Xue Shiqing asked, "I don't know what the Senator is doing to stay in office?" ”

"It's strange for me to go to Zewu County?"

Xue Shiqing's face was a little strange, "It's a little strange, the other senators will assign tasks to the director and secretary." ”

"Then the chief secretary will take the following officers to investigate the place."

"After the chief secretary has collected all the information and compiled it into a book, he can look through the file."

Li Changan nodded, "I will go with you then." ”

"Tomorrow, you stay and keep an eye on the disaster relief food, and send the disaster relief food as soon as possible."

"Yes." Xue Shiqing clenched his fists and left.

Li Changan picked up the scissors on the table, cut the wick, and then began to look through the files piled high on the table.
