Chapter 167 Letting You Trick Myself(5/5)

The plain voice seemed to contain a soothing power.

Lin Mang looked at everyone and said seriously: "Please rest assured, I will definitely give you justice!"

Lin Mang communicated with everyone, and the people gathered on the street gradually dispersed.

Soon after, the Jin Yiwei escorting the money and grain finally arrived in Pingyang City.

The three major aristocratic families in the city have accumulated a lot of wealth, which actually helped the city's disaster relief a lot.

Some merchants who raised prices directly became the dead souls of Jin Yiwei.

In the next few days, Jin Yiwei was all busy, and almost everyone was busy without even touching the ground.

In addition to providing disaster relief, they are also responsible for checking and managing officials.

Fortunately, in addition to being busy in the past few days, he also recalled some officials and Jin Yiwei who had been squeezed out by Zhou Qian and Meng Fanping, which greatly relieved the pressure.

In the entire Pingyang, apart from Shanyin, the other severely affected place was Jinghe County.

A river dam burst in Jinghe County, flooding many villages and towns and displacing many people.

After the magistrate of Jinghe County learned about the situation in Shanyin and Pingyang, he planned to run away overnight, but before he could escape, the people of Jinghe County stopped him at the gate of the city.

Regarding Jinghe County, Lin Mang specially sent Tang Qi to lead people to provide disaster relief.

After working hard for several days, when the disaster in the city was almost dealt with, Zhou Qian and other officials were beheaded in public.

As for the officials of Pingyang Prefecture, they can only ask the court to re-appoint them.

After solving the Pingyang disaster, Lin Mang led a group of royal guards to Datong Mansion.

Datong Prefecture is a prefecture directly under the jurisdiction of Shanxi Province, and both the Provincial Government Envoys and the Capital Command Envoys are located in Datong Prefecture.

Pingyang was the most severely affected by the disaster in Shanxi this time, and other places were affected to a greater or lesser extent.

In addition, the matter of Shanxi Road Supervisory Censor still needs to be investigated.

Zhou Qian and Meng Fanping were able to commit evil in Pingyang for so long. Without the protection from above, it would have been impossible.

Even if there is no asylum, this is a dereliction of duty on the part of the chief minister.



Datong Mansion,

In the back hall of the Provincial Envoy Department.

An old man about fifty years old looked at the secret report in his hand with a sad face.

This person is none other than Shanxi's Right Chief Envoy, Zeng Zongnan.

When the position of the left chief envoy was vacant, as the right chief envoy, he had great power and could be called a frontier official.

There was also a man in official uniform standing under the hall. He had a resolute face, was about the same age as Zeng Zongnan, and had a few strands of white hair on his temples.

This person is Shanxi Chengxuan's political envoy Si Zuo Shenzheng and Wang Yuanhe, who is in charge of supervising the grain road.

Wang Yuanhe said in a deep voice: "Sir, are you worried about the Pingyang Mansion?"

Zeng Zongnan glanced at him and said helplessly: "Aren't you talking nonsense?"

"The affairs of Pingyang Mansion have been revealed!"

"These losers!"

"I have told them a long time ago that this son is by no means an easy person to deal with, and now he has to involve me!"

Zeng Zongnan picked up the tea on the table and drank it all with a bad look on his face.

When the Pingyang incident occurred, even if he had not participated in it, he could not avoid the crime of dereliction of duty.

The position of Chief Minister Zuo is no longer destined for me!

As soon as he thought of this, Zeng Zongnan was immediately furious.

Although the chief ministers on the left and right are of the same grade, the chief minister on the right is a head shorter.

I heard that the imperial court has plans to send people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to Shanxi.

Wang Yuanhe smiled softly, stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Why worry, sir? I have a plan."

"What's the plan?" Zeng Zongnan asked suspiciously: "What good plan can you have?"

Wang Yuanhe's eyes flickered, he looked around, and whispered: "Sir, you can blame this matter on Governor Chen."

"Huh?" Zeng Zongnan frowned slightly and said thoughtfully: "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple, right?"

Since the Xuande period, the governors of each province have inspected one province and then stopped returning to Beijing.

Although Chen Xin, the governor of Shanxi, nominally supervises military and political affairs in the province.

But in fact, in Shanxi, few people are willing to listen to him.

He was nominally the governor, but he could not be transferred whether he was appointed as the governor's envoy, commanded by the envoy, or inspected by the inspector.

This governor is completely in name only.

The major forces in Shanxi are intertwined. It is not easy for an airborne governor to take charge of a province.

Wang Yuanhe chuckled and said in a low voice: "Didn't Mr. Chen take You Shenzheng under his command?"

"But this person's background is not clean either. Zhou Qian, the prefect of Pingyang, is of the same race as him, so he must be closely related to him."

"I have given him a subtle hint that he will definitely take some action."

"In addition..." Wang Yuanhe paused and said in a low voice, "Sir, what do you think the envoy will do if he can't get to Datong?"

Zeng Zongnan looked shocked and said in a deep voice: "You are crazy!"

"Don't forget, this person is the envoy of Jinyiwei Town!"

Wang Yuanhe whispered: "Sir, we did not do this."

"Sir, you have forgotten the group of Mongolians in Datong."

"Ask them to take action, once and for all!"

"If it succeeds, I can blame everything on the Mongols. If it fails, Governor Chen will take the blame. Your Excellency, you will not take any risks."

Zeng Zongnan was silent.

Wang Yuanhe glanced at Zeng Zongnan and said meaningfully: "Sir, you still need to make a decision early."

"If we wait for him to come to Fucheng, he will have no chance."

Zeng Zongnan gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Okay!"

"It's up to you to handle this matter!"

"Remember, you must not leave any clues!"

"If this is done, I will definitely not treat you badly!"

Wang Yuanhe smiled softly, bowed his hands, and said seriously: "Sir, don't worry!"



Wang Yuanhe walked out of the back hall, left the Administrative Envoy Office, and took a carriage quietly to a remote courtyard in the city.

Standing outside the door, he knocked lightly and whispered: "It's me!"

The courtyard door opened, and a tightly wrapped man walked out. He looked around cautiously and whispered: "Come in!"

Walking into the courtyard, Wang Yuanhe didn't waste any time and said directly: "It's done!"

"As long as you can kill the Imperial Guard envoy, Zeng Zongnan's handle will be in your hands, and he will naturally cooperate with you."

In the courtyard, stood a burly man, unusually tall, wearing a Mongolian robe.

Hearing this, the man immediately laughed and said: "This time, I have a favor for you, Your Majesty the King!"

As he spoke, he clapped his hands gently, and soon a man walked up, holding a wooden box in his hand.

After opening it, there was a box full of gold and silver jewelry.

Wang Yuanhe took it with a smile on his face and said with satisfaction: "It's refreshing!"

“I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation next time!”

Sorry, I was delayed by something today. The number of words is less than 10,000, only 8,200. I will make up for what I owe on Saturday.
Chapter completed!
