When the door rang, the gate of the Caizhou Prefecture Ya was closed by the patrol soldiers, and the three classes of the state ya, together with the officials, miscellaneous soldiers, and menzi, were driven to the stone pavilion behind the state yayi gate to line up, and the entire Caizhou state government was taken over by the Pingyu County Ya Ling and the patrol soldiers brought by Lotte.

"Master Ye!" Seeing that the people and horses he brought took over the Caizhou Prefecture Ya, Lotte arched his hand to Ye Zhizhou and said: "The lower official is only an official under the Imperial City Division, and he has no right to criminal interrogation. ”

"I'm afraid that's not right!" Ye Zhizhou shook his head, waved his hand and said: "This case involves the Caizhou Prefecture Government, and this official is the governor of a state, so he should avoid suspicion." ”

"The boss is too worried!" Lotte hurriedly said, and flattered: "There are a few people in this dynasty who don't know that the boss is honest and honest, if this case is reported to the court, it will be quite twists and turns, and it will be difficult to wait for the court's approval, and it will be inevitable that there will be many dreams at night." ”

Ye Mengde showed a little embarrassment, and said after a little contemplation: "You are a military attache of the Nine Grades, and as a close minister of the Son of Heaven under the rule of the Imperial City Division, you are a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and you come to Caizhou to represent the majesty of the Heavenly Family, but you have no right to interrogate, so the official will be reluctant to make it difficult, and you will listen to the trial on the sidelines!" ”

It stands to reason that the Caizhou Prefecture is involved in this case, and a number of officials will give way to avoid suspicion, but Lotte has no right to interrogate, and it stands to reason that Ye Zhizhou can only chase ducks to the shelves for interrogation.

However, the conversation between the two fell in the ears of others, and they all scolded the two of them for being shameless enough, and the whole thing was clearly a game set up by the two, and they wanted to make a business-like face.

With a light cough, Ye Zhizhou glanced at the three Chen Zhixian standing in the public court, and ordered: "Chen Zhixian, Yan Zhushu!" ”

"The lower official is here!" The two said in unison.

Ye Zhizhou said: "This official ordered the two of you to lead the soldiers to inspect the Caizhou barn, be careful!" ”

Chen Zhixian and Master Yan responded in unison, and took a group of soldiers and officials brought from Pingyu to lead the order.

After a while, the side door of the state government opened, and in the shouting, Letian's sister-in-law Li Dutou and a group of people who looked like three wealthy families walked in.

The three people were shackled, and they were still shouting, and when they saw that all the officials of the Caizhou Prefecture were being detained at the Jieshi Pavilion, they immediately stopped shouting.

Li Dutou came back to his life, and he didn't know what to call Lotte for a while, so he could only arch his hand and say: "My subordinates brought the three of them according to the orders of the officials." ”

Wang, Chu, and Shen are all people who are used to seeing the scene, although they don't know what the situation is now, but they know that the situation is definitely not good to the extreme, but seeing that Ye Zhizhou is still sitting in the lobby, Shi Li shouted: "The eldest master is above, and the little people don't know what crime they have committed, but they have been taken to the state office." ”

"Who are you?" He had been informed by Lotte in advance, and Ye Zhizhou asked knowingly.

The three of them replied in unison: "Xiaomin is a law-abiding businessman!" ”

Ye Zhizhou set his eyes on Lotte and asked, "General Le, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Please come here, I have something to ask, but now is not the time." Looking at the three of them, Lotte smiled and ordered: "Please go over there for a while, and when you need to ask the three for advice, you will naturally call the three to come." ”

Facts have proved that Lotte's raid was very successful, although Chen Zhixian has less work experience, but Yan Zhushu is an old fritter in the officialdom, how to check the Caizhou official warehouse naturally has a deep insight, the Caizhou official office was caught off guard, and the inventory was only available until noon, and there were accurate results.

According to Chen Zhixian and Yan Zhu's book, in the Caizhou barn, there is no trace of deficit on the books, but when checking the warehouse, it was found that forty percent of the new grains in the warehouse this year are actually old grains, and most of them are moldy and rotten. What's even worse is that on top of these old grains, all of them are covered with this year's new grain, so as to deceive officials into checking the warehouse.

At present, the Caizhou barn has been blocked by Chen Zhi County's patrol soldiers, and the treasury officials and others have all been escorted to the state government.

Hearing the news, some people in the state hall fell into despair and fear after the matter was exposed.

Even the three grain merchants of Wang, Chu, and Shen were also shocked, as people in the know and actual dealers, their minds were blank at the moment, and they all set their eyes on Wang Hu Cao to join the army. At this moment, Wang Hu Cao joined the army, his face was also pale, his eyes were dull, and he subconsciously set his eyes on Lu Zhiju.

Why not Huang Tong's sentence? Lotte's eyes have not left the face of Wang Hu Cao joining the army, and he has paid more attention to his gaze, in fact, Lotte wants to know that this matter is related to Huang Tongju, but it seems that the development of things is not as he imagined.

It is reasonable that the judge has the responsibility of inspecting the financial and grain and has nothing to do with this case.

The investigation of the case went so smoothly, Ye Zhizhou was overjoyed, this case was tantamount to his own investigation, and it also had nothing to do with himself, which made his reputation soar. Thinking of this, Ye Zhizhou set his eyes on the three grain merchants of Wang, Chu, and Shen, and slapped the shocking wood heavily: "The three of you are specialized in the rice and grain business, and the whole Caizhou knows that the three of them have business dealings with the Caizhou warehouse, and the old grain from the Caizhou warehouse and the new grain bought have a lot to do with you, and explain it!" ”

The three grain merchants tried to pass the buck but couldn't, because Lotte had ordered someone to confiscate the account books of the three grain banks.

There were not too many twists and turns, and the matter was clear, proving that there was no mistake in Lotte's investigation, Ye Zhizhou ordered people to put Wang Hu Cao into the army, the judicial army and Lu to be put into custody, and the Huo County Lieutenant of Pingyu County was responsible for guarding.

You can feel that Lu signed the three of them to cast their resentful gazes, and Lotte just smiled and ignored them, because in Lotte's eyes, these three people are no different from dead people.

"The big man spares his life, the villain is just confused for a while!" An old clerk in charge of the barn cried out loudly.

Hearing the old treasurer crying, the rest of the treasurer and the household officials involved in the case also cried bitterly. In this dynasty, there is an ancestral motto not to kill scholars, and the three officials of the state government have made a big case, and at most they will be sent to a remote place, but these treasury officials who are accomplices will inevitably fall to the ground.

But no one will sympathize with these people, but everyone will think that this case is absolutely inseparable from Ye Zhizhou and Lotte, and thinking of the methods of the two, everyone in the Yazhong can't help but shudder.

The old treasurer in charge of the barn saw that it was useless to cry and beg for mercy, so he turned his eyes to Lotte and scolded: "Do you know that we are going to have our heads on the ground, and you can bear it? ”

What the? Lotte even suspected that he was deaf and misheard, and as a criminal, the old treasurer still accused himself with confidence, and he was angry and funny in his heart, and reprimanded: "You wait for the silverfish of the country to be unrepentant, and you dare to question Shangguan, do you really think that this official will not dare to correct you in court?" ”

Lotte finally found his state, thinking that when he interrogated his father-in-law Qin in Pingyu Prison a few months ago, he felt that he had a bit of official authority, and now he thinks that he has the potential to be an official at that time.

"General Le, you are a little out of order!" Seeing Lotte playing official power, Ye Zhizhou reminded Lotte very kindly, and reminded Lotte by the way that he was the highest official here.

"It's rude!" Lotte also realized that he was rude and hurriedly made amends, and glanced at the old treasurer again as he spoke, and reprimanded: "In a few days, you will know that the mistake you have made will be difficult to atone for even a hundred deaths!" ”

Except for Ye Zhizhou and the three masters of Pingyu County who knew the meaning of Lotte's voice, all the officials in the hall were confused, and they didn't know until a few days later, although they were puzzled, they didn't dare to ask Lotte.

Just when the officials in the state government thought that the matter was about to come to an end, Ye Zhizhou suddenly gave an order, opened the armory, took out the ordnance and distributed it, almost with a knife and gun in each person's hand.

Everyone couldn't figure out what was going on, could it be that the state government was afraid that a few merchants and the families of these criminal officials would come to the state government to rob people, these people were very bold, and they didn't have the idea of turning their heads and plotting rebellion.

The gate of the state office was still closed, and Lotte occupied a bureau in the front office as a temporary office location.

To everyone's surprise, right now, the three masters of Ye Zhizhou and Pingyu County have all put down their identities and come to Lotte's temporary office location.

What happened to Caizhou City, people who paid attention to this matter couldn't help but want to ask.

Although the matter on the surface came to an end, the mutiny of the soldiers was dead on Lotte's heart, and also on the hearts of Ye Zhizhou's four people.

There are more than 200 people in Pingyu County, plus the officers and soldiers who patrol the county, plus the officials of the state government, there are less than 400 people.

On the one hand, he was worried that the Huaikang soldiers would mutiny, and on the other hand, he was worried that the Huaikang soldiers would not mutiny, and if there was no mutiny, Lotte was a little worried that he would not be able to explain to the Imperial City Division.

If the mutiny of the soldiers is quelled, this is tantamount to a great achievement, but if those soldiers become arrogant, can they be quelled? Such worries are not only thinking about Lotte, but also Ye Zhizhou, Chen Zhixian and others.

Summoning the head of the wooden catcher, Lotte asked, "In your opinion, how is the combat power of the Huaikang soldiers?" ”

"Huaikang sergeants are known as 10,000, but there are only more than 4,000 actual soldiers, half of whom are craftsmen and craftsmen, and there is no combat effectiveness at all, and the remaining half is also negligent in training on weekdays, at most once a month, once a month, it is estimated that the combat effectiveness may not be as good as the archers of the Inspection Division and the poor soldiers in the Yazhong." Mu Zhutou replied.

Mu Catcher is a secret investigation of the Imperial City Division, and although his identity on the surface is that of a catcher, he still knows a little about the situation of the Huaikang Army.

Speaking of which, Mu Zhutou told Lotte one more thing, the reason why Yang Song was able to become a wealthy businessman in the city was not how good his business was, but because he understood the principle of seeking and taking advantage of the situation.

What is a strategy to take advantage of? To put it more clearly, it is to get close to the officials and make friends with the backers, and rely on the officials to seek some official business.

Yang Song's backer was roughly old because of his age, so he had no backer. Since Huang Tongju took office in Caizhou, he has relied on his power to divide most of the business in the official government with his own family, and without the backer of his predecessor, Yang Song will not be able to receive any business from the state government.

Lotte understands that Yang Song's way of doing business is similar to that of the red-roofed businessman Hu Xueyan in later generations, and Hu Xueyan also fell next to the big tree of Zuo Zongtang before he really made his fortune. At present, Yang Song wants to burn the big cold stove of Zhang Suo, if Zhang Suo can turn over the salted fish, Yang Song will naturally have another backer, and this backer is held by himself, which is more reliable than ordinary backers.

While Lotte was talking to Mu Zhutou, Tong Si came to the state government and reported a news that made Lotte stunned, and now not only the Huaikang army has signs of non-commissioned soldiers, but also the local Xiang army also has a tendency to mutiny.
