Seeing the Emperor's Officer's reproach, Li Yubo was a little panicked and stood up and reported, "The officials' transfer department's yamen are the ones who are responsible for Li Yubo, and there is a report on his feelings."

Lu Congming just heard Chang Yuchao praise Li Yubo for his loyalty and thought that Li Yubo belonged to Chang Yuchao and was unhappy. This classic is not sophisticated. Shangguan praised you as a flower and you really regarded yourself as a flower. He didn't know how to take responsibility for Shangguan. He sat like Xiong Yian, very well. He snorted with his nose and said coldly: "Tell me."

"Reported to the imperial envoy, the Yuanhua River collapsed, the natural disaster was small, and man-made disasters were big." Li Yubo said with a sigh.

A few words almost made Lu Congming stand up from the chair. He collected 60,000 taels of silver, and naturally thought about sending him lightly to the officials of the Jiangnan Transport Department. How could Li Yubo turn his arm out of this classic? This is obviously a sport that he wants to do something.

He heard Li Yubo join forces to embezzle Hebei ICBC one by one, deducting civil servants' wages, and using inferior products as good as good products as much as much as much. Lu Congming's head was already "buzzing". He finally understood why Zou Sujie spent 60,000 taels of silver to save her life. This was clearly buying his own life. If he knew in advance that the internal affairs of the Transport Department's yamen would not accept those silver bills, he would not accept any of them. Now he was unable to get rid of the tiger, so he could only continue to ask.

After Li Yubo finished speaking, Lu Congming slapped the case and shouted: "Chang Yuchao, is what Li Yubo said the truth?"

Now that things have come, Chang Yuchao and others have put life and death aside. Chang Yuchao said: "Sir, Li Yubo is suffering from mania. In recent months, he has been working hard on the dam and has caused the disease to occur, so he talks nonsense. Every silver, wages, and materials in the yamen has an account to check. Li Yubo also signed the materials when handing over materials. How could he make a false statement?"

When Lu Congming heard that there was an account, he asked, "Have you brought the account book? This imperial envoy wants to verify it."

"Sir, yesterday the thieves attacked Linhua County. Some thieves sneaked into the city and broke into the Transportation Office's yamen to kill and set fire. The accounting and warehouse of the Transportation Office's yamen were burned, and several clerks in the accounting were killed by the thieves." Chang Yuchao is now a dead pig, and he is not afraid of boiling water. Anyway, there is no evidence to investigate. At most, he will lose his official position and dismiss his position. As long as he can live, he can do so.

Lu Congming almost laughed out loud. He used all such clumsy techniques, but they were really useful. Is there no evidence to check? No one can cure the death penalty of Chang Yuchao and others. It seems that the 60,000 taels of silver is not difficult to get. He pretended to be angry and said, "Chang Yuchao, did you send someone to burn the account and warehouse? You are so bold."

Chang Yuchao shouted: "Xiaguan was discussing affairs with all the yamen in the lobby at that time. All the people in the house could prove it. They were really thieves from Zhongshan Village. If Xiaguan hadn't been hiding quickly, they would have been almost killed."

"Chang Yuchao, if what Li Yubo said is true, this imperial envoy will naturally have a way to check the true feelings. The imperial envoy will personally go to the dam to check the hole in the dike in the morning and ask about the true image. Once the defects are found by this imperial envoy, it will be severely punished."

Xiong Yian stood up and said, "Sir, the imperial envoy, Xiong Yian has something to report."

In Lu Congming's eyes, Xiong Yian was a rat shit, and he couldn't say anything and said coldly: "Tell me."

"In the second year of Jianwu, Xiaguan went to the Transport Department's yamen to serve as the Dushui army. Every month, the yamen distributed the 50-two kilowattacks to the gangs of the lower ranks. Xiaguan was only a small official of the seventh rank, and the court every year

The salary is only more than fifty taels. My father once warned me to be an official to be a 'greed', so the officials did not dare to use these silver. So far, they have accumulated 1,250 taels and registered and sealed."

Xiong Yian looked at Lu Congming, and the word "avoiding greed" means something. Chang Yuchao and others cursed in their hearts. When you were dividing the money, you smiled and now you turned it out to complain. You are really a smile on your face. You eat people and don't vomit bones.

Lu Congming didn't care about what Xiong Yian said about abstaining from greed. He secretly thought that Zou Sujie only cost 60,000 taels of silver. The balance of this house can be divided into six or seven hundred taels a year on the surface, and the other items are at least 2 or 3,000 taels a year. No wonder they say that the river engineer is so fat that it is really oily. It's really a matter of farts. If they can settle this matter for Chang Yuchao and others, they will inevitably let them get some more blood.

Xiong Yian continued: "This silver is distributed according to the grade. The official remembers that the regular transfer envoy is 120 taels per month, the two deputy transfer envoys are 100 taels per month, and more than 200 people in the yamen, and even the gatekeeper can get 5 taels. The official calculated roughly and found that the balance of the kitchen in this month was about 4,000 taels per month. It is 48,000 taels per year. I wonder where the silver comes from?"

Chang Yuchao and others had already expected that this matter would be revealed and had already agreed on countermeasures. Chang Yuchao said calmly: "Imperial envoy, the river business is hard, the wind, sun, snow and rain, and the whole month is not in the house. Chang felt sorry for his subordinates, so he found a way to use the convenience of river workers to do some living to subsidize the officials of the yamen. The court distributed silver to the yamen in April every year, but the transfer department yamen allocated silver according to the actual project, so a huge amount of silver was stored in the yamen. Chang asked his subordinates to use these silver to do some freight business around Yuanhuajiang, and in the year there was an income of about 50,000 taels. Chang did not dare to use it privately, and distributed it to everyone in the name of the house balance according to the size of the rank. Although Xiong Chanjun served for two years, he rarely came to the yamen on weekdays, so he did not understand this. Chang violated the court laws and competed for profit with the people, and was willing to be punished."

Since he had broken up, Chang Yuchao was not ready to leave room, so he sued Xiong Yi'an. Lu Congming Ruo got a treasure and asked, "Xiong Yi'an, as an official in the Transportation Office, why is it rare to go to the yamen? If you are not an official, how can you be worthy of the people of the world and live up to the holy grace and receive a salary in vain?"

Xiong Yi'an said: "Sir, the lower officials are weak and sick. They occasionally take leave, but Mr. Chang has approved the leave."

Qiu Guangming suddenly spoke and said, "Mr. Xiong, you are sick and you are born in the brothel to listen to singing, dancing, and drinking flowers. Everyone knows the beautiful name of Mr. Yu in the brothel, Linhua County."

Lu Congming was furious and said, "As a court official, he is inappropriate in lingering in brothels without doing his job. I am really inappropriate. I am going to report that the emperor will remove you from your official position tomorrow. Xiong Yian, what do you have to say?"

Xiong Yi'an was secretly angry. Instead of asking about the Lu Cong Minghe corruption case, he was obsessed with visiting brothels. It seemed that he had the benefits of Chang Yuchao and others, and he deliberately muddled the water to escape their crimes. Not only could he not let him do what he wanted, he also wanted to drag him into the water.

"Sir, how can you win the trust of one-sided words? If you really want to impeach the emperor for the crime of impeachment of the lower ranks, the lower ranks will wait. However, it is a small matter for the lower ranks to linger in brothels, and the Yuanhua River Works case is a big matter that the higher ranks should ask. Lord Lu should not lose his big because of the small."

Lu Congming responded quickly: "You said one-sided words just now are not worthy of trust, now you will be lucky.

Other officials in the Siyamen denied corruption in unison. Your words and Li Yubo were just one-sided. How could I believe this imperial envoy?"

Li Yubo said: "Sir, since the second official took office as a scheduling work, every construction project has recorded the number of materials submitted by the yamen and the actual number of materials. You can tell at a glance."

"Oh, get it quickly."

Duan Shuang said, "Mr. The fake account of Li Yubo is not worthy of making a profit. The material delivery is handled by the official. Li Yubo signed and approved the number of each time. Now he took out this account and said that the number of materials was fake. The official thought that Li Yubo seized the material from it, and then made a fake account and wronged us. Please observe clearly."

"Well, what you said is reasonable, I will examine it carefully."

Li Yubo was a little anxious and said, "Sir, the materials in the Transport Department's yamen are filled with less and inferior materials, and the river workers on the river bank know that they can tell with just one question. It is because the Xiaguan recorded this account that someone secretly sent an assassin to assassinate Xiaguan and wanted to take away this account. The assassin had already taken it and admitted that it was sent by Ye Yanguang, a material merchant in the city. Ye Yanguang was the bandit leader of the rebellion."

Chang Yuchao and others were sweating coldly. They turned out to be lucky enough to think that the assassin had escaped, but they were caught by Li Yubo. However, after listening to Li Yubo's words, they just speculated that Ye Yanguang was instructed by the Transport Department. As long as Ye Yanguang was not arrested for a day, he would have a glimmer of life.

The lobby of Linhua County was filled with cold winds, turbid waves were empty, and lightning was thunder. The Hegong case led to the assassination case. Lu Congming felt that he was trapped in the quagmire. If he accidentally had a disaster, he might have been killed. The rebel leader Ye Yanguang was actually a material merchant who colluded with the Transportation Organ. Do Chang Yuchao and others think he was unhappy? Regretted that the 60,000 taels of silver were hidden on his body. At this moment, he was like six red iron pieces in his arms, torture him so much that he was in pain.

Lu Congming held his mind and asked, "Where is that assassin now?"

"Report to the Lord, Lord Tongji, Longweizhou, Duanzhou, will be guarded."

As soon as this sentence was said, Lu Congming, Chang Yuchao and others felt a little cold. When Long Wei looked at him, he could hardly think about it. Lu Congming just wanted to use the identity of an imperial envoy to ask for people, I'm afraid Long Wei might not buy it.

How could Long Wei appear in Linhua County? Lu Congming found out that he was a little anxious. It was a good idea to cut off the mahjong with a quick knife, but if it weren't for the mess and piles of stones, the knife would be rolled up. Lu Congming became a little depressed, and he was proud for a moment, thinking that he was a Beijing official with the emperor's order and had no interaction with local officials. He offended the governor Ai and the officials of Linhua County in his words. Now he wanted to find them to listen to the matter. I am afraid that he would not look good.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Congming stood up and said, "It's not too late, both of you have a resignation. This imperial envoy is not clear at the moment and it's hard to make a judgment. I will wait for the imperial envoy to go to the river bank tomorrow to check it, and then find some river workers to ask before making a decision. Everyone will be separated."

Yin Hotel no longer has a residence. Yuan Decheng booked an inn next to the county yard to specifically Aden Lu Congming and his party. He also sent sixteen clerks, yamen runners and shop assistants from the yamen to serve the difficult imperial envoy.

After Lu Congming finished his meal, he was thinking about visiting governor Ai to ease his relationship. The yamen runner who was guarding the gate came to report: "Lu Shengyuan, the magistrate of Xingling County, asked for a visit."
