Weichen suspected that he was being watched, and the 500,000 taels of silver he brought were gone in just three days, and the Henan Governor replied that he had bought grain for disaster relief.

However, Weichen only saw a small amount of stale grain on the first day, and the rest of the silver taels were missing.

Wechen had already asked one of the slaves to secretly leave the city, and instructed him to tell the people scattered in the shadows not to send any more letters to the city, and that all the evidence collected was secretly hidden and handed in when the time came.

This letter Shen Shi'an used code language, which he had said when he was a teacher for Kangxi when he was a child.

Kangxi saw that Shen Shi'an actually used the code words of his childhood, and knew that his situation in Henan was very bad, and he guessed that if this letter was not used in code, it was very likely that it would not be sent to the border of Henan.

Kangxi asked the big eunuch beside him to tell Dali Siqing to immediately check the resume of Lu Zhizhong, the governor of Henan.

Dali Siqing soon copied Lu Zhizhong's resume and sent it to Kangxi. Kangxi picked it up and looked at it and found a big problem.

This Lu Zhizhong is a native of Henan, and the Lu family is a local rich family.

Lu Zhizhong is now in Chinese New Year's Eve, and fifteen years ago, that is, in the eleventh year of Shunzhi, he was appointed as the Zhixian of Jiezhou, three years later he was transferred to Xuzhou to serve as the same state, and three years later he was promoted to Zhengwupin Tongzhi.

Three years later, he was promoted to the government of the third grade, and five years later, he was promoted to the governor of the government and has served until now.

Kangxi frowned when he looked at Lu Zhizhong's resume, this official promotion was too smooth, and he was promoted from a seventh-grade county order to a second-rank senior member in ten years. And it was in his birthplace.

This is unreasonable, my father will not be so confused. So what's going on?

Kangxi walked back and forth in the imperial study with his hands behind his back, thinking of what happened before he was not in power. Before he was in power, all matters in the palace were decided by the four auxiliary ministers.

Among the four people, the Lu family is a rich family, could it be that the Lu family used money to give it to the worship. Therefore, Lu Zhizhong's official position was promoted so quickly?

And after Lu Zhizhong served as the governor, he could use his power to provide protection for the Lu family, and even improve the prestige of the Lu family in the local area.

This time, the silver taels brought by Shen Shi'an must have been detained by Lu Zhizhong. What is he doing with all this silver?

Kangxi couldn't figure out Lu Zhizhong's purpose for a while, and only hoped that Shen Shi'an could bring back the facts and truth.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, Kangxi ended the morning dynasty early, and asked the minister to leave the palace and close the palace gate around noon.

Liu Yu is on night duty today and rests in the house during the day. All the people in the world are preparing for the New Year, and the people of Liufu are also preparing things for the New Year.

She was the only one who had no relatives and was alone guarding the big house.

Looking at the row of spirit cards in front of him, Liu Yu knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes and kowtowed. Throw the prepared paper money into the copper basin one by one.

After burning the paper, Liu Yu instructed his subordinates to clean up the house. Go back to your room and rest.

After entering the medicine garden, he took out some of the food he had bought before and put it on the low table outside.

Seeing the lot of food he had prepared for his second brother, Liu Yu's tears came out all at once, and he couldn't control it anymore.

cried loudly in the space, lying on the table and holding the food in his arms, crying and saying, "Second brother, where are you? ”

After crying for a long time, Liu Yu gradually calmed down. It may be tired, or it may be relaxed. At this time, Liu Yu lay on the floor and fell asleep.

This night, Liu Yu slept for a long time, and after waking up, he cleaned up in the space first, and used his meager spiritual power to reduce the swelling of his eyes.

I also took a closer look with a bronze mirror, and I couldn't see the redness and swelling of my eyes before I got out of the space.

After coming out, Liu Yu gathered all the people in the house, gave each of them a bounty, and said a few words of encouragement.

Let those who have families reunite with their families, and those who do not have families can get together with the people in the house to have a lively and happy year.

During the meal, Liu Yu first toasted a glass of wine to the people at the table, thanked them for their dedication, and hoped that the coming year would be better and better.

After eating, Liu Yu was about to enter the palace on duty. Today, Liu Yu rode over by himself.

On the first day of the first lunar month, the palace was full of joy, and even the battle in the harem stopped.

Kangxi took the queen to Kunning Palace to ask for peace to Xiaozhuang, and then accepted the invitation of other concubines. The day was spent here eating and drinking.

After the New Year, Kangxi resumed his previous dynasty. Liu Yu naturally returned to the normal time on duty.

On this day, a major event happened in the early dynasty, and Liu Yu could hear Kangxi's angry voice standing outside the hall.

After listening carefully, it seems to be something from Henan. Liu Yu thought it had nothing to do with her, so she didn't pay attention to it anymore. Unexpectedly, someone burned this fire on her body.

In the main hall, Kangxi threw the fold he had just received to the ground and said loudly: "Who can tell me what is going on? The money and grain officials sent by the imperial court are actually dead? What are those officials in Henan doing?"

Kangxi's three consecutive questions made the ministers below tremble, and everyone couldn't answer, so they could only kneel on the ground and say: "The emperor is angry!"

He looked at the man who knelt on the ground, but no one answered his question. Kangxi sat on the top and got angry, but there was no way.

I could only hold back the anger in my heart and ask: "Zhong Aiqing, is anyone willing to go to Henan to help me find out the truth?"

The kneeling people below, you look at me, I see you are silent.

Suo Etu, who was kneeling in the front position, rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, the slave has something to say." ”

"Oh!" replied. Kangxi saw that the person who spoke was Suo Etu, the queen's uncle, so he asked him to get up and speak very respectfully.

"Slave Xie Emperor. ”

After thanking him, Suo Etu got up from the ground and straightened his clothes before he said again: "Your Majesty, the situation in Henan is complicated, and the slave thinks that it is necessary to send a person who has the ability to find out the truth of the matter and the ability to protect himself. ”

Kangxi became interested after listening to Suo Etu's words, and said to Suo Etu: "Oh! ”

Suo Etu saw that the emperor was interested, so he continued: "Lu Zhizhong, the governor of Henan, has heard that this person is very capable.

From a seven-grade county, in just fifteen years, it has jumped from a second-grade county to a party leader.

It can be seen that his talent and ability are not bad, and his mental means are naturally not bad.

The disaster in Henan is so serious, the minion believes that he will not be unaware. But why didn't he provide disaster relief? Even the imperial court sent money and grain officials over, but not only did he fail to provide disaster relief, but he also lost his life.

As the Henan Governor's Office, he wanted to say that he didn't know about it, and the slaves didn't believe it. Therefore, there must be something wrong with this Lu Zhizhong.

The minion dared to guess if Shen Shi'an had found out something and died unexpectedly. ”

When Suo Etu said this, he quietly glanced up at Kangxi, and saw that Kangxi listened carefully and had no intention of stopping him.

Then he continued: "Of course, there is another possibility. is that Lu Zhizhong is a puppet, and there is someone else who holds the real power, he knows the truth of the matter but can't do anything.

But the slave thought that this was unlikely, the Lu family was a big family of scholars in the local area, and they wanted power and wealth. But it is not ruled out that he is a puppet of the Lu family. ”
