"Jizhou is the largest state in the world and has the largest population in the world. It is of great importance."
Yu Yanyi had been with Emperor Zhou for many years, and when he saw Emperor Zhou's eyes, he knew what Emperor Zhou meant.
"I'm reporting to the superior, I think I can order Qi Yuanjing, the inspector of Sanshui Pass, to lead troops to escort him, and Li Yushi will supervise on behalf of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!"
"In addition, Liu Chang, the governor of Pingshan County in Jizhou, is old and has asked the court three times to beg for his return. On the occasion of a natural disaster, the court should immediately send someone to take over."
"What does Yu Qing mean!?"
"Yang Sicheng is young and promising, so he can temporarily serve as the governor of Pingshan County. In addition, Li Yushi can also serve as the governor of Hebei to assist in disaster relief."
Emperor Zhou did not speak, but a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.
Li Xunhuan has been the supervisory censor for three years, and it is normal for him to be promoted. However, Yang Qingyuan has just been promoted to Dali Temple, and it is impossible for him to continue to be promoted in a short time.
Therefore, on the surface, this was an errand sent by Yang Qingyuan and Li Xunhuan, but in fact it was a reward for the two of them.
Li Xunhuan and Yang Qingyuan were both talents that Emperor Zhou valued and cultivated as candidates for future cabinet ministers.
However, according to Taizu's teaching, those who are not members of the Imperial Academy and those who are not Li of counties, prefectures, and prefectures are not allowed to join the cabinet.
Both Yang and Li were born in the Imperial Academy, but neither of them had experience in governing local affairs and lacked qualifications.
This time, the two were sent to Jizhou in the name of disaster relief. It was called official business, but in fact it was a gift to gild their political achievements.
Wang Jing, the governor of Jizhou, has always been a great talent. He also responded quickly during the disaster relief in Jizhou. When the snow disaster broke out, he immediately provided relief to the victims and comforted the people.
Jizhou has been able to survive without civil uprising until now, which mainly depends on the reputation of this prince in Jizhou.
Otherwise, under the instigation of a group of thoughtful people, Jizhou will be in chaos before the first batch of disaster relief food arrives.
Let Yang and Li go to Jizhou, and they can also learn from Wang Jing about administration, peace of mind, and handling of local government affairs.
Li Xunhuan didn't react for a while, but Yang Qingyuan already understood and said, "Sir, the case of the theft of the granary has not yet been concluded. There are still affairs in the capital that need to be handled by me. If I leave the capital at this time, then..."
Emperor Zhou shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. You can let Li Qing go with the first batch of food and grass. You can handle the matters at hand and leave them to your subordinates. We will set off in three days."
The food was recovered and the mastermind behind the scenes was caught. This was enough. The rest was no longer important in the eyes of Emperor Zhou.
After the report, Yang and Li were about to leave when Emperor Zhou asked again.
"I heard that you arrested all the Caogang people at the Caoyun Terminal?!"
"Back to the top, that's exactly what happened. Everyone in the Cao Gang colluded with Anjia to help smuggle grain, evade taxes, smuggle goods, and oppress the people."
Emperor Zhou nodded, "I'll leave this matter to you and handle it as soon as possible! I will also strictly order the Ministry of Household Affairs not to interfere at will!"
After the two of them retired, Emperor Zhou smiled and handed a snack to Yu Yanyi.
"Both of them are young people. It doesn't matter if they eat less. You and I are not young anymore! We can't be hungry."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Time is not forgiving! I remember that Yu Mian is already married!"
…
Outside the palace city, Li Xunhuan transformed into a curious baby.
Although Li Tanhua is both civil and military, his political sensitivity may be at the same level as Ye Jianhan.
"The granary case has not been investigated, so why would your Majesty transfer you and me to Jizhou at this time?"
Because it was not far from the palace, Li Xunhuan used sound transmission to enter the secret.
"That's because His Majesty doesn't want to continue the investigation. Of course, he also wants to reward us."
"Reward? It's my duty to leave Beijing for business, but calling it a reward is a bit forced, right?" Li Xunhuan couldn't agree.
"Now that Jizhou only needs food supply, can we calm down the people and wait for next year's planting?! We are just going to get gold plating to gain qualifications."
Li Xunhuan nodded, and just when he thought that was all, Yang Qingyuan continued.
"And His Majesty doesn't want us to continue investigating."
Yang Qingyuan's last sentence made Li Xunhuan confused. He looked at Yang Qingyuan in confusion, waiting for his explanation.
"Your Majesty is not only a good emperor, but also a good father! The water transport matter has something to do with Xungui, and behind Xungui is the King of Chu. If this case is really traced to the King of Chu, how will Your Majesty handle it?! It has been verified that even if King Tianhuang of Chu is a noble person, he only has a cup of poisonous wine and three feet of white silk! He must be decent."
Yang Qingyuan paused for a moment, his eyes complicated. This was Emperor Zhou using his supreme power to interfere with justice.
However, according to the laws of the Dazhou Dynasty, relatives can hide from each other, and between direct blood relatives and husbands and wives, except for crimes other than treason and treason, they can cover up and conceal each other's guilt and not report to the government.
Ordinary people are like this, how can Emperor Zhou, who holds the supreme imperial power, be exempt from vulgarity? It is human nature.
Moreover, Emperor Zhou also gave Dali Temple hush money.
Originally, the water transportation matters should be handled by the Ministry of Household Affairs, but Emperor Zhou handed over all the water transportation matters related to the Cao Gang to Yang Qingyuan.
Li Xunhuan was silent. As the emperor, Emperor Zhou was suspected of favoritism, but as his father, Emperor Zhou's actions were not wrong. Li Xunhuan was not a decisive person, and he didn't know whether Emperor Zhou's actions were right or wrong! ?
Yang Qingyuan saw Brother Li's confusion, "Brother Li, don't worry, this theft case of the grain depot should have nothing to do with the King of Chu. Judging from the results, he did nothing wrong!"
The An family just took advantage of the Xungui Group and the King of Chu's protection. There is currently no evidence that King Chu is involved in this matter. Besides, a prince who can take part in the heirloom won't be so stupid.
After Yang Qingyuan explained, Li Xunhuan felt slightly relieved.
"Brother Li, you are about to set off with the Royal Forest Army escorting the food, so you should go home quickly to prepare, and explain to Miss Lin by the way!"
After Li Xunhuan said goodbye, the two parted ways.
Yang Qingyuan is also in a hurry to return to Dali Temple. He will also leave for Jizhou in three days. The affairs in the divine capital must be arranged as soon as possible!
The follow-up matters of the granary are only minor matters, and Di Zhiyuan still has to deal with them. The problem is not big. The real key issue is Caobang.
In addition to investigating the case, one of the reasons why Yang Qingyuan investigated the water transportation and the Cao Gang was to control the Cao Gang.
The Cao Gang was originally one of the top three gangs in the world, but Yang Qingyuan really looked down on his masters and warriors.
What enthuses Yang Qingyuan most about Caobang is its size and financial resources.
Wherever there is shipping in the world, there are Caogang people. This is the framework of a natural and powerful intelligence network.
Next is financial resources. If you want to renovate Dali Temple, the funds allocated by the court alone are not enough. You still need a stable income.
Among the six dark ministries, except for the Shenhou Mansion, which relies on funds from the Holy Emperor, the other ministries have their own financial resources.
For example, the 13,000 people behind Hulong Villa, the fire costs collected by the East and West factories from all over the country, and even the weakest Liumen have their own origins. Liumen is one of the shareholders of Jingcheng Huitong Bank.
If Dali Temple wants to rise, intelligence and financial resources are indispensable.
