After three rounds of wine, the guests are happy.

Han Zheng took advantage of the wine to invite Yang Dong to the study to enjoy the paintings.

Yang Dong naturally understood that the drunkard of Luozhou Prefecture did not mean to drink.

Being able to have an open and honest interview alone is a hassle-free.

In the study,

Han Zheng personally made a cup of tea for Yang Dong.

"Inspector Yang, you have traveled thousands of miles to come to Luozhou. Dare to ask Your Majesty what arrangements can be made? ”

Seeing that the other party asked directly, Yang Dong did not hide it.

He picked up the teacup and took a sip, only to feel that his lips and teeth were fragrant, and his tongue was full of relish.

"Don't hide it from Lord Han, this official came to Luozhou this time because he was ordered by His Majesty to solve the flood victims."

"The situation in Los Angeles now, the state pastor should understand. The official had doubts, and asked Lord Han to solve his doubts. ”

Han Zheng's expression was calm, his eyes looked at Yang Dong, and he suddenly sighed softly.

"If the old minister's expectations are good, Yang Inspector will go to Jiaocheng this time, I'm afraid that he will come to ask for the crime!"

He sighed lightly, as if he had been prepared, and got up and took out a sandalwood brocade box from the wooden cabinet beside him.

He looked at the brocade box, and a trace of reluctance flashed between his eyebrows. But he was still ruthless, and handed the sandalwood brocade box to Yang Dong.

"Inspector Yang, this is the official seal and document of the old minister."

"The old minister knew that he was ashamed of his trust in His Majesty, and he did not defend this Luozhou for His Majesty. In this way, the position of state pastor was also asked to be taken back by Yang Inspector. ”

"More than 100,000 people were killed and injured in Luozhou. These more than 100,000 unjust souls were all caused by Lao Chen. The old minister was ashamed in his heart, and he only wished to stay in Luozhou in this life to atone for his sins. ”

Well?

Yang Dong frowned slightly, and did not take the brocade box handed by Han Zheng.

This old man Han has something.

As soon as he came up, he planned to resign, which was the weakness of the master.

Now that the forces of all parties in Luozhou are intertwined, if he resigns, how can the master's work be carried out?

But if he is not allowed to resign, how will the master's disaster relief plan be carried out?

After pondering for a moment, Yang Dong rejected the brocade box in Han Zheng's hand, and then spoke:

"What does Lord Han mean by this, the situation in Luozhou is complicated, and this official naturally knows. What Lord Han did, whether it was meritorious or not, is not something that can be determined by the official alone. ”

"However, now the people of Luozhou are not living, and they don't know how to starve on the road. Please also ask Lord Han to read that all living beings are suffering and open a warehouse for disaster relief! ”

When Han Zheng heard this, his old body was slightly stunned. A hint of complexity flashed between his eyebrows.

After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly sighed softly.

"I'm sorry, Patrol Yang. The matter ...... The old minister couldn't agree! ”

And even if the old minister agrees to this, there is no surplus food in the governor's mansion. Today, the treasury of Luozhou has long been empty. ”

"Is there such a thing!?"

Yang Dong raised his eyebrows, since the flood in Luozhou, Han Zheng, the state pastor, has never released a grain of grain for disaster relief.

It stands to reason that the treasury should not be full, but it should also have a lot of grain.

But Han Zheng said that the treasury is empty, why is this?

Seeing the confusion on Yang Dong's face, a wry smile flashed on Han Zheng's wrinkled cheeks.

"Yang Patrol knows that Houjin is going to attack Youzhou?"

Yang Dong frowned slightly,

"You mean, all the treasury of Luozhou was sent to Youzhou by you?"

"Ridiculous! Have you ever thought about the people who were affected by the disaster in Los Angeles? ”

Han Zheng's face changed slightly, and his eyes showed a look of exhaustion.

"Inspector Yang, what you said, the old man naturally knows."

"If the old man was willing to open a warehouse to release grain, he might be able to live hundreds of thousands of people in Luozhou. Can ......"

"But Yang inspected and found out how short of food there is in Youzhou?"

Youzhou?

Yang Dong frowned slightly,

He already knew about Houjin's covetousness of Youzhou Horse Farm. Not only that, but the empress's side also responded in advance.

But he had never heard of the shortage of food in Youzhou.

Could it be that this matter has been ignored?

He frowned slightly, then slowly stretched.

No, as the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved.

You Rong can't say that he is well versed in the art of war, but he is by no means a faint king.

There was no way she didn't know the weight of food and grass.

In this case, where did the lack of food in Han Zheng's mouth come from?

Seeing Yang Dong's gloomy and uncertain face, Han Zheng sighed deeply again.

"Yang inspects and knows, why is there a shortage of food in Youzhou?"

Yang Dong shook his head slightly, his eyes showing doubts, and looked at the other party.

"It's not a secret, the adjutant general of the Youzhou garrison is now a student of the old man."

"Youzhou has a huge deficit, and the sergeants from all sides only have seven days of rations left!"

"What did you say?!"

Yang Dong slapped the table and stood up in shock.

According to military regulations, among the border guards, there must be at least enough grain and grass for two months.

This law, since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the ancestor of the country, for a hundred years, no one dared to disobey.

But now, in such an important town as Youzhou, there are only seven days' rations.

What's going on?

And whether it is the West Factory or the spies in the hands of the empress, they are completely kept in the dark.

Behind this matter, there must be a big fish hidden!

Lin Chunqiu!

Yang Dong's expression was slightly cold, he knew very well that there were only a few people in the entire Great Zhou who could do this.

And among them, only Lin Chunqiu, the first assistant, can do it so well.

If it weren't for listening to Han Zheng mention it at this moment, he would still be in the dark when he thought about himself.

No, the situation in Youzhou is probably going to change!

I'll have to tell you about it right away.

Yang Dong was anxious, but on the surface he was silent.

He stared at Han Zheng and suddenly asked:

"Since the form of Youzhou is so urgent, why doesn't Lord Han make this matter clear to Your Majesty?"

Han Zheng sighed faintly, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Inspector Yang really thinks that I didn't go to Your Majesty in this matter?"

He said as he opened the brocade box.

I saw that in the brocade box, in addition to the official seal and documents, there was also a thick pile of folds.

Han Zheng picked up the top fold and said gloomily:

"Since the beginning of the previous year, the old minister has reminded His Majesty to pay attention to the verification of the military rations sent to Youzhou. But what? ”

"I folded one letter after another, but every time I reviewed it, it was verified."

"But Lao Chen's disciple said that every time it was just a loud thunder and a small raindrop."

"In this brocade box, there are a total of twenty-one folds. In the past three years, the old man has made it clear to His Majesty. It's a pity that most of them are just sunk in the sea. ”

Yang Dong's face changed again.

What a Shousuke-sama!

This hand was hidden from the sky and the sea, and it was even hidden from the entire court.

But why did he do this?

Later, Jin Tiecai rode south, and the soldiers pointed directly at the capital. The truth that there are no eggs under the nest, this old thing should know better than me.

Unless......

In Yang Dong's mind, a bold idea couldn't help but appear.

He choked for breath, terrible thoughts racing wildly through his mind.

"I think I've already guessed that Yang Patrol has already guessed, our Shoufu Lord, hehe......"

A sneer appeared on Han Zheng's cheeks.

"In recent years, I have written a lot of notes to the palace. However, these dense folds are like stones sinking into the sea. ”

"What does Inspector Yang think?"
