In the Temple of Nourishing the Heart.

The summer wind is not cool even late at night.

After reading a few books in a row, there was nothing to say, please be safe, and Yongzheng impatiently put down another fold.

Su Peisheng looked at his face and quietly changed a cup of tea for him: "Your Majesty, it's late at night, let's take a look at it again." ”

The breath of lychees wafted out from the teacup, Yongzheng rubbed the corners of his forehead, and glanced at Su Peisheng: "In addition to the excerpt from the last time, does Prince Yi have any news back?" ”

"Not yet, the emperor has taken care of it, Prince Youyi's excerpt will definitely be sent as soon as possible." Seeing that his face looked a little better, Su Peisheng hurriedly stepped forward to serve him to wipe his face: "You try this cake?" The imperial dining room is said to be made of wheat harvested from the nobles of the pond. ”

When Yongzheng heard this, he really picked it up and tasted it: "Leave a little for her, don't plant a little wheat for half a year." ”

"Keep it," Su Peisheng smiled: "You ordered someone to collect it yesterday, and after collecting it, you left half of it in Yuhua Pavilion." ”

Yongzheng: "Have you taken care of the people in her palace to water the sweet potato seedlings?" ”

Su Peisheng Yile: "Take care of it, they are all shrewd, they know what to say and what to do." ”

Yongzheng nodded, as if he was soothed by the refreshments and cakes, and picked up the fold again.

Su Peisheng breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pack up his things, but Yongzheng stood up suddenly.

"Go, herald! Tell Prince Yi to return to Beijing immediately! ”

When he got up, he accidentally knocked over the teacup, and the water stains splashed on the fold, Su Peisheng hurried to the rescue, and vaguely saw the words "Changping" and "turmoil".

My heart sank, and I quickly responded.

Yongzheng couldn't wait, he had already opened the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and directly called the person who was waiting for the pen and ink in the study.

******

Changping Laishui is near the Tailing of the Qingxi Mausoleum, where the mausoleums of Yongzheng and Yinxiang are located.

Chi Xia felt a little awkward when he heard it at that time.

She was a staunch atheist, but she couldn't ignore the strange things that happened to her.

She opened her mouth and closed it, but in the end she opened her mouth before leaving the barracks: "Your Highness, let's change places again." ”

Yinxiang was puzzled: "Then where do you want to look?" ”

Chi Xia: "Everything else is fine except for this. ”

Zhili Mansion is very large, it is easy to change places, Yinxiang didn't have time to dwell on this little thing, so he simply changed the route and prepared to make a detour to the south to return to Beijing.

When they left the city, they hurried up, and when they returned, they deliberately slowed down, and the three or four counties they passed through were basically grain merchants who had no grain, and only the "black market" was selling grain at high prices.

Yue Zhongqi was afraid that something would happen to this ancestor, so he personally brought people and horses to follow, and "kidnapped" several grain merchants in the city along the way for interrogation, only to know that this "wandering" black market often haunts the place.

Yinxiang took Chi Xia to look at the outermost part for a while, the price of grain in this "black market" was five times higher than usual, but there was still a steady stream of business.

The people who crowded there to buy grain were not rich and noble families, and if it weren't for the fact that there was really no rice in the pot at home, they would probably not come to buy grain at a high price.

Chi Xia: "At the beginning, we collected grain at less than twice the price, but now we sell grain at five times and ten times the price. The heart is too dark, and if it goes on like this, it will really starve to death. ”

To be honest, the capitalists don't do this, and the capitalists still know that they want to raise leeks, and the pricing will not be so crazy.

starved people to death, that is, dried up and fished, killed, chickens and eggs, and traded with a hammer.

Yinxiang sneered: "Don't alarm the others, wait for the end of the game for a while, arrest these people for me, beat them hard, and beat them until they explain who the master behind them is." ”

Yue Zhongqi answered in a low voice, and after continuing to set off, within a quarter of an hour, a personal soldier came over to reply: "Lord Wang, general, Ma Xin, the county commander of Zhengding County, has been taken to the Shuntianfu prison." ”

Chi Xia is a human being, and this is the first time he has been in prison.

Shuntianfu Yin is actually a celebrity, and when Chi Xia heard him see the ceremony, he said, "Chentian Wenjing see Prince Yi, Prince Jin'an." I couldn't help but look at him.

For convenience, she changed into the little eunuch's clothes again, and it was convenient to peek.

Tian Wenjing knew in advance that Yinxiang was coming, and he had already asked people to clean up the interrogation room.

The room was bright, and the torture instruments and the ground were splashed with water and washed.

But as soon as you walk in, there is still a cold and bloody atmosphere, and in the summer of May and June, it also gives people goosebumps on your arm.

Yinxiang sat with his arms crossed, and motioned for Tian Wenjing to lead people.

Tian Wenjing answered, and asked someone to drag up a middle-aged man with a disheveled hair: "Lord Wang, he is already willing to recruit." ”

After receiving the report, they also checked around the surrounding farmland and county town, this man was tortured for about two days, and he had already broken down a little, and was dragged out by the jailer with a chain, and he trembled like chaff: "I said, I said everything." The Thirteenth Master will spare me. ”

Chi Xia was a little surprised.

The heart said that this minister is a minister, and this has helped them finish their work. The process of confession, leniency, resistance, and strictness does not need to be gone.

The county commander had a handful of tears and snot: "Yes, it's Eqian, I heard that this kind of son was dedicated to the emperor by his daughter, and in order to give his daughter a solid favor, he didn't let me report a reduction in production, saying that the emperor wouldn't really come to see it." His daughter is the emperor's favorite concubine, and his brother is the governor of Liangjiang. ”

Chi Xia: ......

It seems that it is not that you don't go through the process, but that you are still preparing to frame a link first.

Yinxiang looked at Chi Xia and glanced at Tian Wenjing with a smile: "Lord Tian, it seems that your torture tools are not very good, next time this king will ask the Internal Affairs Office to make you a batch of new ones." ”

Tian Wenjing's old face turned red, and as soon as he finished boasting, he was said by Yinxiang, and his face was very ugly.

Yinxiang didn't plan to talk to him: "You were originally a pen writer in the household department, and you were in charge of the registration and storage of grain varieties." It is said that you had no money to pay back at first, and you asked your chief official to be accommodating for a few days, and it was all repaid in less than two days, which seems to have made you a fortune. ”

Ma Xin was stunned, he didn't expect him to remember himself.

Yinxiang looked at him coldly: "Do you want to confess yourself, or do you want this king to let people check again?" ”

Tian Wenjing has already asked people to move out all the torture instruments.

Ma Xin's eyelids jumped, knowing that he could find out whether he said Yinxiang or not, and he was spitting in the end.

Half a year ago, the above specially explained that a batch of seeds would be put into storage, and a special car would be allocated to the ten counties of Zhili for trial planting.

He counted the seeds, put them in storage, and when he returned home, he was invited to drink.

He recently kept an outer chamber and was strapped for money. However, the Ministry of Households also demanded the payment of the arrears of the treasury. He didn't owe much, but he also had six or seven hundred taels.

And the man who invited him to drink was very generous, and immediately offered two thousand taels of silver, and promised him to release him to the real shortage.

Unable to resist the temptation, he "lent" the seed to the man "for a night of study."

With a short staff, he let go of the vacancy to Zhengding County as a county commander, so he naturally had to escort his master.

Chi Xia plans to go through the process by herself, after all, her main quest also requires her to "find out the truth": "So who is this person who invited you to drink?" ”
