The special investigation team sent by the imperial court has been staying at the Yin Hotel in Houguan County, Beicheng District, which is a standard subsidiary place of the local government throughout the ages.

Although the ancient county government sparrows are small and have all kinds of organs, it is very different from the rough performance of later film and television dramas that they are far away from the lobby when they enter the county government gate.

On the right hand side is the Yin Hotel for guests to stay, on the left hand side is the dining hall where the usual officials eat, and then pass through a ritual door, at this time on both sides are the officials, the ceremony, the household, the soldier and other six rooms, and then you can come to the county government hall.

Nowadays, it is natural that all the facilities and places are not gathered together as in ancient times, but are scattered and distributed throughout the city.

To be honest, the living experience of the Houguan County Yin Hotel, which has an old-fashioned decoration style and seems to have not been repaired for several years, is not very good, and it is far from being comparable to the exquisite and elegant private hotels and inns.

"It's really, I only knew that cockroaches could be so big when I came to the south!"

"Okay, hurry up and help, there are more than ten stacks left that have to be matched one by one."

The officials from the Criminal Department and the Military Department in the investigation team were still fighting at night, and the four large booklets on the small table next to them were their achievements these days.

"This matter is not simple, I just found out again......" An official of the Criminal Department looked embarrassed and stopped talking.

Seeing his helpless and solemn expression, Luo Fu knew that things were not simple, so he looked left and right for a while, and said, "Let's talk straight, there is nothing to hide." ”

"It was found out that the Fuzhou Prefecture Customs had abused power for personal gain, and it was done very delicately and carefully, but it still showed its feet, and when it checked the accounts of bribery and collusion between Changle Shipyard and local officials, it found out a line by the way." As he spoke, he casually listed a few people.

"One case after another, how many people will be found out if this is traced down in a chain." Luo Fu stomped his foot a little irritably.

The overall scale of the Ming Dynasty is so huge, the export volume and import volume are astronomical, and the oil and water of the customs are terrifyingly large, often tens of millions, tens of thousands of huge amounts of water, even if only one of them is grabbed each time, it is enough to make a lot of money.

In this way, it is not surprising that some people take risks.

"Luo Zhizhao, do you think you have to continue to investigate?"

Although theoretically Luo Fu is only an overseer and does not lead the investigation, his identity is here, how can he really be regarded as air?

"That's it, stop and get down to business." Luo Fu said solemnly: "Otherwise...... It can't end. ”

Everything is prioritized, and with the clouds of war looming, it is clear that solving the affairs of the Changle Shipyard is the first priority.

Although the customs matter is not trivial, it can be pulled up in the future, and trying to solve both at the same time will only take care of one or the other.

Luo Fu is also very anxious now, because there are too many people involved in this case so far, including many local tycoons who eat the military, politics, and business, even if he came to supervise it by the emperor's order, he still felt a lot of pressure.

Those guys are watching their every move, don't look at the previous courtesy, but if there is a chance to catch their handle......

Scold! Definitely will be threatened immediately.

And the officials of the investigation team are even more embarrassed, they are on the orders of the imperial court, but the imperial court is not always reliable, God knows whether it will incur retaliation in the future.

It wasn't until midnight that today's statistical archiving task was fully solved, and everyone could finally sleep.

At 0:19 a.m., the last light on the second floor of the Yin Hotel went out, and the entire building was dark again.

The moist sea breeze blows on the body, which is cool and comfortable, just right.

Not long after, three cars that didn't even have their lights on slowly drove to the back door.

More than a dozen figures got out of the car one after another, and the back door also took the initiative to open, and they quickly rushed in.

The lights in the stairwell came on, and the two women and nine men crept upstairs, then turned a corner at the end of the corridor and came to the door of the easternmost room on the second floor.

Two of them had cameras in their hands and were doing the final check-ups.

"Click-"

The key inserted into the lock hole turns twice, and the door lock opens.

As if they had rehearsed it countless times, the group rudely pushed open the door and rushed in together.

The two young girls untied the ties around the waist of their long skirts, pulled off the hairpins, untied their buns or braids, and went straight to the bed when they entered the house.

Immediately after, the lights in the room also came on.

With a "click", the two men with cameras kept pressing the shutter.

"Grass! Who are you? What! ”

"Luo Zhizhao, hum, our 'Lord Qincha' also has this day, and he dares to prostitute himself in the place where the government stays."

"Hey, this guy ......"

Everything happened too quickly, and the naked eye couldn't adapt to the change from dark to light in a short time, so the dozen or so people who rushed into the room were surprised to find that the person on the bed was not Luo Fu at all.

Everyone was dumbfounded, "You are ......"

In the room diagonally opposite, Luo Fu, who had not yet fallen asleep but was already drowsy, was suddenly awakened by this movement.

Good guys, come on, really, right?

Fortunately, I was able to keep my hands behind and swap rooms with an officer of the military department of the investigation team, otherwise......

He took a deep breath, calmly analyzed the current situation, and then pushed the door open slightly and looked through the crack.

The men retreated from the diagonally opposite room rather embarrassed and embarrassed, and then went downstairs and left with a curse.

The two women were disheveled, carrying their skirts and tying them haphazardly.

Fearing something worse, Luo Fu quickly left the room and headed straight for the stairwell on the other side of the building.

He ran down the stairs barefoot, walked briskly to the telephone room, and rushed to the telephone almost like a hungry tiger.

Dial! Report now!

He wanted to call the Forbidden City directly, but he suddenly realized a serious problem-

Wired telephones can be tapped, and if they are detected by the local gang, who knows if it will cause them to jump over the wall?

No, these days it is hard to stabilize them, and the situation must be stabilized so that the situation does not become more serious.

He hesitated for a few seconds, and the images of several people flashed through his mind.

Eventually, he called his home.

At midnight, I think my wife was also woken up in her sleep, so it took a while for the phone to be connected.

"Hey, is it Shuyu?"

"Huh? yes, you're calling again? It's still the middle of the night, and the baby is woken up......"

"That's the case, am I not doing things in Fuzhou under orders? The weather has not been very good in the past two days, and I will not be able to go back for a while. By the way, you mother and daughter live alone in the capital, so pay attention to safety. ”

The wife on the other end of the phone was obviously a little confused, because the information was completely contradictory - at noon, Luo Fu also called home, saying that Fuzhou was sunny and breezy, warm and pleasant, and very suitable for leisure and vacation.

The phone was hung up, leaving only the sound of a beep.

Stay safe, stay safe...... Keeping things safe?

At least this time, a woman's intuition played a big role. However, Luo Fu's hint is actually quite sufficient.

In line with Luo Fu's fears, the telephone lines taken from the Yin Hotel in Houguan County were being monitored at the telephone bureau's switchboard.

Tapping a wired phone is not difficult, it is basic for a scout, all you need is a pair of headphones and a small converter.

Infiltrate deep into the enemy's rear, strip the found telephone line from the rubber skin, and then attach the wire of the small converter so that the signal flowing through the telephone line can be received.

For the local government, it is even easier - all telephone signals have to be forwarded through the exchange, so why is it difficult to monitor the content of the call in the designated place?

Luo Fushen made a phone call in the middle of the night a bit abnormal, but the sleepy telephone bureau staff was already in a state of confusion, and since he didn't hear some keywords, he didn't take it seriously.

This night passed like this, and it was just an ordinary night for the general public, but it was very different for the parties involved in the Fuzhou case.

It's dawn, and it's a new day.

Xia Xiaoshi and Zhou Changfeng spent a leisurely morning, and they saw each other again for a month, which was really nostalgic.

Due to the reason of recuperating at home, these few days should have belonged to the two of them, but the phone call from the palace directly broke the original leisure.

was summoned by the emperor inexplicably, or when he was sick at home, Zhou Changfeng's mood can be imagined.

"Alas, sir, wrap yourself in a turban, or you will be blown by the cold wind and you will be cold again."

Although Xia Xiaoshi is also very depressed, what can she do?

Against the howling northwest wind, the rather unpleasant perimeter wind came to the Forbidden City.

However, after meeting the emperor, his original displeasure quickly dissipated.

In the second room in the east of the Zhaoren Palace, Zhu Lingjing, who was sitting on a chair, seemed to be looking out the window and wandering, while Fang Shujun was standing in the corner of the room, like a wooden man.

The warm room was very pleasant, and Zhou Changfeng arched his hand and said, "I've seen Your Majesty." ”

Who knew that Zhu Lingjing slowly turned her head, with a cold face and cold eyes, which made people's hearts tense involuntarily.

People who were always pleasant-looking suddenly look like this, can this be a trivial matter?

Now that someone Zhou was also present, Zhu Lingjing spoke at this time, her tone was flat and her speed was faster than usual.

"The situation in Fuzhou is not good, the investigation team sent by the imperial court has been hindered a lot, Luo Shuanghe has also been tempted by various temptations, last night there was a woman who broke into the room where he was originally staying, and someone followed closely with a camera, this kind of behavior is really despicable."

Aha? What is the operation of the three indiscriminate? Does this sound a bit like a fairy jump?

"Your Majesty, this is too child's play, it's like a joke, Fuzhou Mansion is also a big city, and there is no other means?"

Because the approach was not "interesting" enough, Zhou Changfeng couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

Ay! What's your concern? Is this the point?

"Anything else?" Zhu Lingjing, who was slightly annoyed, squinted at him and said seriously: "In terms of past deeds, Luo Shuanghe is cleaner than you." ”

After suffering the local officials of Fuzhou Prefecture, they really couldn't find Luo Fu's handle.

Zhou Changfeng was embarrassed and coughed dryly: "The case has been investigated and sorted out, right?" Can they be safeguarded now? ”

The imperial court sent people to check the granaries in the place, and there were often fires, and there were countless examples of this.

"They should be able to bring all the archived accounts and documents with them, and they have to hurry up and return to Beijing." The statements on the side all stroked the beard.

Zhou Changfeng waved his hand again and again when he heard this, "Don't, if you leave to come back now, if you don't do it, you will force the dog to jump off the wall in a hurry." ”

If the results of the investigation are brought back to the capital in their entirety, there is a high probability that Fuzhou Mansion will be turned upside down, which is what the parties try their best to avoid.

"Not really, right?" Fang Shujun felt unlikely, "That's a team directly sent by the imperial court, and there is still half of the Qincha, whoever touches it will die." ”

Because there is no explicit appointment, Luo Fu can indeed only be regarded as half a chaplain.

"Lao Fang, you are a senior, you are well-informed, what can't you do when you force people to be in a hurry? Now we must not let them return to Beijing, and only by continuing to stay can the situation be stabilized. ”

Zhu Lingjing, who was expressionless, fiddled with the table lamp on the imperial case, and said lightly: "You shouldn't joke with their lives, let alone ...... If it gets bigger, it won't end well, and there will be no light up and down. ”

The theory of "killing the Qincha, treating them as complicit rebellion, and destroying the three tribes" has spread widely, and the facts are actually generally the same.

In the ancient times of feudal autocracy, the emperor represented the will of the state, and killing the emperor was tantamount to challenging the strict authority of the government, and the seriousness of the nature was naturally extraordinary.

In today's Ming Dynasty, it is also highly consistent in this regard, but the "emperor" and the "court" are separated.

If something goes wrong with the officials appointed by the imperial court to handle the case, it is equivalent to slapping the cabinet members in the face, and it is also putting them on fire and not being able to get off the stage - if they are not thoroughly investigated and investigated, their authority will no longer exist.

A court without majesty calls the shots, and who will obey it?

"I've asked the Navy to examine itself, and they've acquiesced." Zhu Lingjing looked at Zhou Changfeng and said calmly: "(Fuzhou officials) dare to slander and coerce Luo Shuanghe, they don't know whether they are alive or dead. ”

Her so-called "navy acquiesced" refers to the fact that the Ming navy has already recognized it and will not try to persuade the emperor to protect a few of them.

In this case, the navy suffered the most -- several ships were defective, and their reputation fell sharply after the incident, which can be described as a lose-lose situation.

So, the Navy bigwigs are really annoyed.

"Who are you with from the factory...... Not... Shen Yu knows each other, right? Zhu Lingjing, who was thoughtful, stared at the wall calendar on the table and muttered, "Okay, you go to Fuzhou with him." ”

Aha?

Please, sister, I had a fever yesterday!

The helpless Zhou Changfeng pointed to his head and said, "Your Majesty, I'm ...... The cold and fever are not good yet, and if the fever is again after that, will it be a mistake? ”

"Fuzhou is warm, and it should be a vacation." Zhu Lingjing smiled lightly and said leisurely: "If you make a mistake, don't come back." ”

Tut! This woman speaks better than she sings.

"Yes." Zhou Changfeng bowed his head and said, "Then do you want to take someone there?" Or is it just me and him? ”

What's the point of just the two of you in the past? If you don't do it, it's like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger.

"You pick dozens of people from your subordinates to be guards," although the expression was as usual, the corners of Zhu Lingjing's mouth rose slightly, "The main force... I ordered another Air Force to be transferred. ”

In view of the fact that the navy has obviously become somewhat powerful in the past two years, it is not appropriate to let them continue to fight, and it is just a good opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity to suppress them a little.

The army is stable, don't worry about it, the air force has not been satisfactory in recent years, so let them show their faces.
