Rong Lian sneered, "Honest and clean, if you are honest and clean, how can a catastrophe come now?" ”

Liu Tingwei was silent, not knowing what Rong Lian knew.

"Let me tell you the truth, Shangguan Yu and I are not only here to fight against the Huns, but also on the orders of the emperor to investigate the corruption of military salaries in the army, but we are all competing to see who can find out first."

Rong Lian looked at Liu Tingwei and said in a low voice.

When Liu Tingwei heard what Rong Lian said, he couldn't believe his ears, the emperor actually sent someone to check the military salary? Then why didn't I even hear the wind?

"I have already received the news that Shangguan Yu has found Guo Feng's head, and I also know that the people behind him are about to arrest him and torture him, I heard that you are very close to him on weekdays, do you think Shangguan Yu is likely to let you go?"

Hearing that Guo Feng had been found out, Liu Tingwei felt that his brain exploded.

He didn't doubt Rong Lian's words at all, after all, Guo Feng was actually hidden very deeply, and he was discovered, not to mention himself.

If he is caught, this crime of corruption will be divided into five horses and the whole family will be exiled!

Liu Tingwei didn't dare to think about it, and knelt down directly, "Please ask the general to save my life!" ”

Rong Lian looked at him on the ground and sighed, very embarrassed.

"I knew today, why bother at the beginning, you said that you can be greedy for any money, why do you want to embezzle this military salary, the emperor takes this matter very seriously, and ordered a thorough investigation, and anyone who is implicated will be executed."

"It's all the lower officials who were confused before, and they were deceived by Guo Feng and got on this thief ship, please the general for the sake of my loyalty to you, help me this time, the general's great kindness, I will be unforgettable."

After Liu Tingwei finished speaking, he kowtowed on the ground, he really didn't want to die.

Rong Lian stretched out his hand to help him up, "If it weren't for your loyalty, I wouldn't have taken such a risk and found a way to save you." ”

"Does the general have a way to save me?" Liu Tingwei's eyes lit up suddenly.

Rong Lian looked into his eyes and said.

"You also know about this investigation, the two of us are also competing, although Shangguan Yu has found out about Guo Feng's head, but the evidence in his hand is limited, I'm afraid he can't report it to the emperor, if you say any useful information, help me catch up with him, get to the bottom of the matter first, and when the time comes, it's not easy to keep you?"

Liu Tingwei was silently calculating in his heart, and his mind turned back and forth.

If you don't say anything, a little minion like yourself will definitely die, but if you say it, not only can you live, but you also sold Rong Lian a favor, such a thing, why can't you do it.

What's more, he also knew that Guo Feng was acting cautiously, if Shangguan Yu couldn't find any evidence from him, he would inevitably blame himself for everything.

It is better for him to bear me, than for me to bear him first!

"Okay, the subordinate will tell the general everything I know, and I hope that the general will keep his promise and save my life."

Liu Tingwei was ruthless and decided to confess everything he knew, but he still wanted to hear Rong Lian's assurance.

Rong Lian patted him on the shoulder and laughed.

"That's natural, after the matter is completed, it is not a matter of a word, don't call me a general in the future, just call me the son, you are so loyal, I will introduce you to my father when I go back."

Hearing his words, Liu Tingwei felt even more comforted in his heart, and he told all the things about embezzlement of military salaries.

The more Rong Lian listened, the more frightened he became, just sending it to Guo Feng through his hand every year, it added up to more than 100,000 taels, not including Guo Feng's deduction from the pension, that is to say, Liang Zheng can get more than half of the military salary from this military salary every year!

He listened attentively and only asked a question at the end.

"So you don't have any evidence of correspondence with them? That's a bit tricky. ”

Liu Tingwei saw that Rong Lian's face was embarrassed, and he frowned, fearing that his own affairs would be ruined, so he hurriedly said.

"Tell the world, although I don't have any evidence like letters in my hand, but I have made accounts of the money in my hands over the years, I don't know if this account book is feasible?"

After hearing this, Rong Lian nodded hurriedly to him, "It's feasible!" Feasible! You hurry up and give me this account book, I can also exonerate you as soon as possible, lest you fall into the hands of Shangguan Yu, you have also seen him interrogate people, how painful it is, I don't need to tell you more. ”

The last time Shangguan Yu interrogated the people who kidnapped Su Muwan, Liu Tingwei had also seen it, and when he thought of the appearance of those people who couldn't survive in the end, he shivered in broad daylight.

"The next official will find an opportunity to send it to the prince's account in a while, and everything will be the son of Lao."

After the two of them separated, Liu Tingwei went back, and sure enough, he quickly sent the account book to Rong Lian's hands, repeatedly begging him to save his life.

Rong Lian also specially told him that if Guo Feng sent someone to find him again in the past two days, he told him not to respond, so as not to cause trouble again.

Liu Tingwei was even more convinced of Rong Lian's words at this time, when he went back to get the account book just now, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, no wonder Shangguan Yu could just interrupt their plan to make money every time, it turned out that he had been suspicious for a long time.

At that time, his only hope was Rong Lian, and Guo Feng naturally couldn't contact him anymore.

After Rong Lian got the account book, he handed him over to Shangguan Yu.

The anti-discord plan that Guan Yu came up with last night was to use a small part of the facts mixed with nonsense to scare Liu Tingwei, and these half-truths and half-truths were mixed together, and he was naturally convinced, so as to make him turn against him and come up with some evidence.

Now the plan has really worked, and it even surprised Shangguan Yu.

His original plan was just to have Liu Tingwei's confession, but he didn't expect that he would be able to come up with such evidence.

Now, Rong Lian's side has taken care of it, and the rest is up to him.

Metropolitan Protectorate.

Last night, Guo Feng drank all night of stuffy wine, had a headache to death, looked at the numbers in the account book, and felt very irritable.

At this time, he suddenly heard the housekeeper's report that Shangguan Yu was here again.

He was really puzzled, even if Shangguan Yu was familiar with him at first sight, he wouldn't use it so often. But in desperation, he was welcomed to the hall.

As soon as he saw Shangguan Yu this time, Guo Feng suddenly felt that he felt very different, but if he wanted to talk about it, he couldn't tell what was different.

Guo Feng put on a smiling face, "I don't know why the general came this time?" ”

"When I had a drink with Du Hu last night, I may have said something I shouldn't have said, and I forgive Du Hu."

Shangguan Yu was very polite and apologized to Guo Feng.

"Where, where, what the general said last night was all for the sake of the soldiers, even after drinking, he was talking about these things, a pure heart, which really made Guo admire."

This is not what Guo Feng said to specifically curry favor with Shangguan Yu, but his truest thoughts, Shangguan Yu, the general, originally only had to worry about whether he won the war, but he really cared about the soldiers, so he would have a headache because of the soldiers' pensions.

Shangguan Yu listened to his words, put away the smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked very seriously.

"Do you really admire me, then why do you say one thing on your lips, but your subordinates do another."

Guo Feng frowned, not understanding why Shangguan Yu would say such a sentence.

"What do you mean by general?"

"I thought that Du Hu was really as you said, a loyal and patriotic Qing official, but now it seems that I have seen the wrong person, in this matter of military salary, Du Hu also dares to stretch out his hand, I am afraid that the pension I said last night is the kind of dead man's money, Du Hu also made a lot of money, is it really fearless?"

Hearing him say this, Guo Feng's heart trembled violently, how could Shangguan Yu know these things, he was already clean enough to do things, and it was impossible to leave any hands and feet.

Could it be that he is deceiving himself?

Thinking like this, Guo Feng pretended to have a puzzled expression: "Why can't the general understand what the general said, the lower officials can't understand every word, is there any misunderstanding?" ”

"Huh, misunderstanding? Guo Duhu looked at what I was holding in my hand? ”

Shangguan Yu sneered and asked rhetorically with the ledger in his hand.

Seeing the doubts on Guo Feng's face, Shangguan Yu took the initiative to help him solve his doubts.

"It seems that Du Hu is afraid and doesn't know, this is the account in Liu Tingwei's hand every time he hands over the money to Du Hu, in the past few years, the record is very clear, do you need me to read a few of them?"

Hearing Shangguan Yu say that this was Liu Tingwei's bookkeeping, Guo Feng still couldn't believe it, he actually betrayed himself?

Seeing that Guo Feng was silent, Shangguan Yu sneered coldly and opened his mouth again.

"It seems that Du Hu doesn't cry when he doesn't see the coffin, so I'll just read what is recorded in this for Du Hu."

After that, Shangguan Yu casually opened a page in the account book and began to read it out loud.

"On August 16, on the grounds of the Mid-Autumn Festival welfare of the officers and men in the army, 20,000 taels of silver were deducted, and 18,500 taels of silver were handed over to Guo Feng, 1,000 taels were kept for himself, and the remaining 500 taels were given to everyone in the sundries department."

After reading it, he turned a page forward at random, "On the seventh day of the fourth month, on the grounds that the soldiers changed their quilts and spring clothes, I deducted 9,700 taels of silver, handed over 9,000 taels to Guo Feng, kept 500 taels for myself, and left 200 taels with others. ”

Just as Shangguan Yu was about to continue reading, Guo Feng suddenly spoke.

"The general doesn't have to read it anymore, I admit it."

Shangguan Yu put away the account book in his hand, handed it to Lan Yu, and persuaded bitterly: "Du Hu, in fact, I know that the person behind you is General Liang Zhengliang, and you don't have to cover up the crime for him. ”

"It's better to be a broken brick than a jade whole, the general's eloquence is very good, since you and I already know who the person behind me is, does the general still want to continue to investigate?"

Guo Feng stared at Shangguan Yu with sharp eyes.
