The person Su Bottle wants to check is the former commander of Qianniuwei, Hu Chao.

At that time, Hu Chao protected Emperor Tiande and hunted in Luqiaoyi Forest Farm.

Wild boar herds are spotted. A sow foraged with a herd of piglets, and the emperor shouted and galloped forward.

The emperor was in front of him, and no one dared to shoot arrows. The emperor also abandoned the bow and crossbow, and called the king of Xiang, the king of Qi and others with a long knife to see who would kill the wild boar first.

The people went with the emperor.

The wild boar panicked, fled in a hurry, and hid in the bamboo forest. The space is too narrow for horses to walk. had already given up the pursuit, but suddenly a large male boar broke out. The royal horse was frightened, the man stood up, and the emperor fell from his horse. The giant boar rushed out and rushed towards the emperor.

Everyone exclaimed, Hu Chao was the most astute, pounced in front of the emperor, and fought with the wild boar. The calf was bitten by a wild boar and a layer of skin was torn off. The crowd stepped forward one after another, chopped with knives and axes, and cut down the wild boar.

"You're going to check on me?"

Hu Chao opened his trousers, pointed to the scar on his leg and said to Su Bottle: "Come and see, this scar on our leg is for the emperor." I'm greedy for a little money, and the emperor still lets me go, why are you still entangled? Why, in your eyes, Emperor Tiande's holy decree doesn't work?! ”

Hu Chao is in his fifties, tall, with a beard and small eyes. In the face of the inspection of the Criminal Department, he was not afraid at all.

At this time, he sat on the Taishi chair, crossed Erlang's legs, and did not give up his seat to Su Pingmei in the main hall of his mansion.

And the superintendent who came to check on him before was blasted out by him like this.

In fact, this kind of case that has been closed is really possible to check or not, but now the waiters let it be investigated, and the superintendents will handle it again.

The superintendent who handled this case was the eighth group of superintendents under Feng Shilang, named Fan Tao, from Lushunfang, and the family concubine of Concubine Fan. The investigation encountered a dilemma, and now that Su Yushi is involved in the case, Fan Tao is quite happy.

And the reason why Su Bottle dared to come here was because he had made a new discovery. found that this Hu Chao is very likely to have participated in the "Lushuncang Corruption Case".

Qianniu Wei ruled the next institute and was responsible for the safety of Shun Cang. The entire Shun warehouse has been hollowed out, is it possible that Hu Chao is not involved?

There may be such a possibility, but with the style of the Liang Dynasty officialdom, I feel that this possibility is very small.

However, Su Bei didn't talk to him directly about this matter, but threw some of the information collected by Fan Tao onto the small square table in Hu Chao's hand: "Of course Emperor Tiande's holy decree works, but you deceive the emperor, what should you say?" ”

Hu Chao looked at the documents, suddenly laughed wildly, and threw the documents to the ground. He pointed to the ground and said, "I've seen these, aren't they some of my family's properties and transactions collected by the superintendent surnamed Fan?" Is there anything wrong with this, I'm at home, can't I do some business? ”

Su Bottle said: "Where does the money come from? ”

Hu Chao said proudly: "My ancestors have money, and they are blessed by their ancestors." ”

Su Bottle said: "Do you think that if Emperor Tiande pardons you for deducting military salaries, your other sins can be covered?" What have you done yourself, don't you count? ”

"You don't come here to bluff people!" Hu Chao stood up and shouted: "If you want to cure me, come up with evidence!" ”

Su Beiyi smiled and said, "I advise you, don't be too arrogant." The case of Shuncang will have to be handled sooner or later. When the time comes, you won't be able to run away. If you still have a mouth and ears, you can inquire about Huang Bingxuan, Tian Qun, Zhang Guan, Luan Ping, and Li Xiao, what is the current situation. ”

After that, Su Bottle turned around and left, and didn't pick up the documents on the ground. Mei Ran wanted to pick it up, but was pulled by Su Bottle. Mei Ran comprehended and followed Su Bottle outside.

"Alas! Wait a minute! ”

Hu Chao's previous aura disappeared, he hurriedly stood up, took two quick steps to block the way, and said, "You make it clear, what is the case of Lu Shuncang?" I can tell you, Hugh will make up charges against me. Although I have no official position, my two in-laws are still officials in the court, and you can't allow you to blackmail me! ”

Su Bottle raised his hand and pushed Hu Chao away.

Hu Chao grabbed Su Bei's wrist.

is worthy of being the commander of Qianniuwei, and sure enough, there is some kung fu, which makes Su Bottle's wrist hurt a little.

Su Bottle backhanded, grabbed his wrist, twisted it, and saw that his face changed, and his hand was released.

"If you still know to be afraid, I want you to talk to me well. It's yours, I don't rob. If it's not yours, you should hand it over. The country's money is the blood and sweat of the people, and you can't use it for prestige! ”

This Hu Chao is also an old fritter, not so easy to fool. Su Bei used both hard and soft, but he couldn't pry his mouth open, he just didn't admit it, but pushed the matter of the warehouse of Lushunfang to one of his former subordinates.

He said that he was very busy as the commander of Qianniuwei, and it was impossible to cover everything, and it was inevitable that he would be negligent. And his subordinates did what they did, perhaps because they were deceived by fake documents, and his subordinates did not notice.

He personally picked up the documents on the ground and put them in Su Bei's hand, and at the same time stuffed Su Bei with fifty taels of silver.

In Su Bottle's view, fifty taels is the feeling of fifty thousand yuan.

……

"And stolen money!"

The little senior sister Mei Ran was annoyed because Su Bottle collected money.

In fact, Su Bottle also felt that this money did not come from the right way, but Su Bottle still accepted it. Smile and invite Mei Ran to eat her favorite mutton in the water basin. Ke Mei was angry and went to the street to buy pies.

Su Bottle couldn't resist her, and couldn't stop her, just watched her eat the pie, and then took her to the black market to have a look. Let her see the small workshops with poor hygiene. Let her see how the moldy maggot rice noodles are processed before they are re-marketed.

Su Bottle thought that Mei Ran would feel nauseous. But what was unexpected was that she actually said: What is this, in the past, when the nunnery had no food, she went out to ask for food, and she also ate cold and rancid rice.

Seeing that she was still angry, Su Bottle said, "You don't want to be angry with me." After collecting the money, I can handle the case better. Otherwise, I don't need to spend money to run like this all day? In the past, I was a superintendent and could go to the account office of the Criminal Department to pay for reimbursement, but now do people still take care of me? So what should I do, take the money myself? I'm also thinking about the government. ”

Although Mei Ran didn't say anything at the time, when they left the black market, they ran to the roadside stall where they had eaten pies just now to look at the basin. Perhaps, the roadside stall did not use flour processed on the black market, but Mei Ran's eyes still lacked kindness, and she looked at the pancake lady in a panic.

The pancake stall was not far from the county office, and there were a few bad people on the other side of the line, carrying an injured person into the yamen. At this time, Su Bei remembered Zhang Fakui's words, and was about to find a time to tell Tong Yin, so he beckoned Mei Ran to go over there to have a look.

When I came to the Office of the Bad Guys, I saw Tong Yin standing in the hall with a frown, and there was an injured man in front of him, who was being treated. The man had suffered a knife wound to the abdomen, had suffered severe blood loss, and his face was pale, and Lang Zhong was sewing him with needles and threads.

The Liang Dynasty did not have very good bactericidal drugs, and once a person was injured, it was a test of physical resistance, and it could also be said to be resigned to fate.

Seeing that Su Bottle was coming, Tong Yin gave a few orders to the people around him and sat in the small room.

When Su Bottle told the truth about the loss of the crossbow machine, Tong Yin was furious, his face was red, his ears were red, and he clenched his fists and said: "I really know people and faces, but I don't know my heart." I treat him as a friend, and he does so much to me! ”

Tong Yin became more and more annoyed, threw his head on the chair, and grabbed his hair, making the originally regular bun become unkempt.

At this time, Su Bei knew that the team of bad people had been withdrawn from the military department, and it was said that it was the emperor's intention. The Emperor wanted to elect a bad lieutenant to lead the northern and southern teams. And the emperor's method of choosing the lieutenant was to give the two bad commanders the same task and let them complete it. It can be said that it is a competition.

Although this was the emperor's plan, the person in charge of supervising the review was not the emperor himself, but the eunuch Zhang Dali, the chief of the Inner Servant Province. (This is what Zhang Dali said)

In fact, Tong Yin can completely let the old man Honglu Temple Qing Ximen be diligent and go to Zhang Dali to dredge up. But Tong Yin had a gentleman's appointment with Bao An, a bad handsome man in Beixian County, and decided to play fairly.

"I've lived in vain for more than 20 years, and I really have no eyes, and I treat villains as friends!" Tong Yin smashed his fist on the table: "I still wonder, my hidden stake is well hidden, why did something suddenly happen." Now I figured it out, it must have been him! ”

Tong Yin seems to be on some secret mission, and the details are inconvenient to reveal to Su Bottle. But it can be heard that some of his plans have been sabotaged. The wounded outside were the ones he sent to the stake, or the people who connected with the stake.

Seeing Tong Yin's sad appearance, Su Bei planned to let him be quiet, so he got up and was about to leave, but was pulled by Tong Yin: "Brother Baoyu has done me a great favor, I can't let my brother run in vain." ”

Su Bottle said: "Tong Shuai doesn't have to thank me, originally I came to you to inquire about things, but you are busy with business now, I think you should come back tomorrow." ”

Tong Yin tidied up his hair, put on his head, and said, "Fang Cai Tong is rude, please forgive Brother Baoyu." I see if you have anything to say, I'd better ask today, tomorrow I don't know where to go. If you can't find me, I'm afraid it will delay the affairs of the Baoyu brothers. ”

Su Bottle nodded and said: "Now that the Criminal Department is in charge of Hu Chao in Chayuan Qianniuwei, I know that bad people are well-informed, and I want to inquire about Hu Chao." ”

Tong Yin said: "What are you checking on him?" ”

Su Bottle said: "Corruption. ”

Tong Yin frowned and thought for a while, and said, "We are not in charge of corruption, we only need to arrest the bandits." But you're right, bad people know a lot of things. Speaking of Hu Chao, I know that he raised six or seven little wives during his time as commander. With his monthly salary, it is nothing to feed a few little wives. But the problem is that his wives are very profligate. ”

Su Bei said: "During his time as the commander, he deducted military salaries and pretended to be public and private, and he was punished by Emperor Tiande, so there is no need to mention those things." What I want to ask is, what did his ancestors do? ”

Tong Yin said: "I will help you inquire." I'll write to you within three days. ”
