Chapter 131: Food shortage

Next.

When dawn comes.

Inside the Great Liang City.

At the moment, it has been blocked.

Unfortunately, the blockade came too late.

This is also helpless.

There were too few people they brought, and those soldiers fell asleep directly.

Wake them up.

Then let them come out and seal the gates.

Too much time was delayed.

So much so that all the officials led by Jia Nan fled.

I don't know, where I fled.

But even so.

Ying Changsheng still knew the real reason for this rebellion.

At this moment, looking at the kneeling little official in front of him, Ying Changsheng completely understood.

Why are all the officials here involved in the rebellion?

This little official has returned from the city.

His official position is simply too low.

So, it's not his turn to embezzle or anything.

I only heard him explain.

"Nineteen sons, I don't know, as the so-called, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to draft, there is nothing in this Liang City, these officials, they ate to the granary, they have been greedy for grain, and then, the deficit is too big, these officials, probably just worried, after the matter is revealed, they will be killed, so they have to ......"

The little official's words reached Wang Qian's ears, and he raised his eyebrows, and then asked.

"Then let me ask you, in that case, why didn't you report this matter to the imperial court earlier?"

"How dare the villain report it?"

The little official looked bitter, and then said to Wang Qian.

"If the villain reports today, then the villain will die at home tomorrow!"

"This is not villain nonsense, there was someone who reported this matter, and as a result, the next day, a family of five all died at home, and then the government sent someone to check, saying that this family died of serious illness, you say, there is a precedent for this, how dare we report it?"

Hearing this, Wang Qian's complexion was gloomy and abnormal.

Ying Changsheng on the side, with a straight face, was very angry, and he asked.

"How much grain was lost in the granary, and who embezzled it? Do you know? ”

"Well, this little man doesn't know ......"

The little official shook his head.

"It's too much, and I don't know how to count this, so the villain doesn't know anything, but it's about half of the food stocked......"

"Half!"

Wang Jian exclaimed.

This is half a granary.

Seventy or eighty thousand stone of grain!

These people have such courage?

For a while, Wang Jian gritted his teeth and said.

"It seems that the rule of officials in the Kanto region is really bad, and I have to report it to Your Majesty when I turn around, and Your Majesty will severely punish this matter!"

"yes!"

Ying Changsheng sighed.

The rule here is too bad.

It's so bad that it's shocking to win Changsheng.

But he opened his mouth and commanded.

"Immediately send someone to make a move, issue a wanted warrant, want this escaped official, and then report the list of all the officials who have served as Daliang to the imperial court, and the father will send someone down to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

"That's exactly how it should be!"

Said on the side.

That's how it should be.

This corruption is really too severe.

It has reached the point where it is impossible to do without punishment.

And Win Changsheng continued to command.

"However, corruption is easy to handle, just hold accountable, and now the grain in the granary is really, it's too much of a headache!"

The good grain is missing half out of thin air.

It's hard not to get a headache.

When Wang Jian on the side heard this, his face was also gloomy.

In a disaster year, there is already a shortage of food.

Now, suddenly.

At least seventy or eighty thousand stone of grain were missing.

Is this so frowning?

You know, even if all the corrupt officials and corrupt officials are arrested.

Copy all their net worth.

Nor can they find all the money and food they embezzled.

This is true, there is no doubt about it.

Because, after the corrupt officials embezzled money and food.

They don't keep all of this thing in their hands as a miser.

Such people will have, however, this is a very small minority.

More of them are squandered directly.

So, it's a real headache.

"That's it, the only way to report this matter to my father, let my father find a way to transport grain from Guanzhong, there are many granaries in Guanzhong, seventy or eighty thousand stone grain, or make it up, that is, the consumption when transporting grain, it is bigger!"

Ying Changsheng said with emotion.

……

A few days later.

Inside the city of Xianyang.

When he received the fold sent by Ying Changsheng.

Win Zheng's face was gloomy, as if he could drip blood.

Well, he was too angry.

The reason for the anger is.

Kanto actually found out that such a serious corruption case.

The worst thing is.

These bastards.

How dare you murder your own son because of this!

This makes Win Zheng, how can he not be angry?

I saw that the silence dropped a needle and could hear it clearly in the hall.

Ying Zheng's angry voice came out.

"Check, check for me, check carefully, don't let them run away, don't let anyone go, no matter who is involved, where he is, no matter who he is, investigate thoroughly, and then kill them together!"

"Your Ministers obey!"

For a while, the ministers shouted one after another.

And after Ying Zheng said this, it took a while for him to ease up, and he frowned and said to the ministers in the palace.

"In addition to these, I have a headache now, now there is a great drought in Kanto, and there is a shortage of food, although this kid Changsheng has asked large households to lend grain to the people, but now there is a shortage of food, and the food of large households is also limited, so there is no other way?"

"Your Majesty, if you have food, you have it!"

Li Si said without thinking.

Great Qin is a powerful empire with a huge centralized system.

Food, no matter what, still has some reserves.

However, in ancient times.

It's not that you have food.

That's it.

Sometimes, just because you have food doesn't mean you can transport it to the disaster area.

I saw that Li Si looked helpless and won the political road.

"My granary in Daqin has a lot of grain stored in it, and it is not so easy to transport grain to Kanto from other places!"

"Now the grain in Guanzhong can't be moved, and it can only be transferred from other places!"

Li Si said again.

The grain in Guanzhong is the last reserve of Daqin.

It is the reserve resource of Great Qin.

Until the last resort, when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, this batch of grain will never be touched.

And Li Si continued.

"And my Daqin, now there is a shortage of grain in various places, and many local granaries are also empty, or half-empty, if you transfer grain from these places, in case there is an accident here, how can it be good?"

"So, the minister thinks that now he has to transfer grain from one place!"

"Where?"

Ying Zheng then asked.
