"Prime Minister Zuo, you are here."
As soon as he saw the left prime minister coming in, the right prime minister Yang Youcheng hurriedly stepped forward to talk.
"What's the big deal?"
Prime Minister Su Yunqi on the left looked at the slightly worried Prime Minister Yang Youcheng with a smile on his face.
"Prime Minister Zuo, there is indeed something big going on."
"Oh, tell me."
Su Yunqi stood there expectantly and looked towards Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng.
"Prime Minister Zuo, Shangshu Cen came to see you just now. When you weren't here, I told the students. He said something was wrong with Yu Si's food. He went to see it a few months ago. The food was the same as the one he saw a few days ago. underground."
"Is there a problem with this?"
Prime Minister Zuo Su Yunqi felt that there seemed to be no problem.
"Prime Minister Zuo, there is a problem. Think about it, in the past few months, there have been no major disasters in the Mo Dynasty, and there is no need for Yu Si's food reserves. Today, there has just been a major disaster in Jianglai. It is also true. When it was time to store food, Cen Shangshu went to visit him, presumably for that method."
Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, just roughly understood what Yang Youcheng, the right prime minister, said.
"Okay, I understand." After speaking, Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi curiously asked Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng: "Have you made any plans for this?"
Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng shook his head: "Students can't make the decision in this matter, so I want to ask my benefactor to make the decision."
In fact, it's not that Yang Youcheng, the right prime minister, can't be the master, it's just that he got the position of prime minister with the help of his benefactor Su Yunqi bit by bit.
The position of prime minister is a position that many officials dream of, even Yang Youcheng, the right prime minister, is no exception.
Now that he has finally become the prime minister, he wants to keep this hard-won official position.
"What do you think?" Su Yunqi, the prime minister on the left, asked Yang Youcheng, the prime minister on the right.
"The students believe that people should be sent to investigate the case immediately. This case is not only a matter for Yu Si, but also for the people of Damo. It is the food produced by the hard work of so many people."
As soon as Yang Youcheng said this, Prime Minister Su Yunqi smiled and looked at the student Yang Youcheng: "Don't you have an idea? Just do as you say."
"Okay." After answering, the right prime minister Yang Youcheng smiled slightly and asked the left prime minister Su Yunqi again: "My benefactor, do you think who should be sent to investigate this case?"
"Don't you have an idea? It's up to you to make the decision."
"Thank you so much, my benefactor."
Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng smiled slightly and went to deal with the matter.
After the meeting, Prime Minister Yang Youcheng summoned the two men.
One is Cen Wenxing, the current Minister of Household Affairs, and the other is Guo Kang, the current Zuodu Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
"Do you know why I called you here?" Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng looked very serious.
Cen Wenxing, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, nodded, but Guo Kang, the Censor of Zuodu, shook his head, looking confused.
"Then let me repeat it again. A few months ago, Yu Si had a lot of grain in stock, as much as..." Halfway through the words, Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng got stuck, so he had to look at Cen Wenxing, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, for help: "Cen Minister, how much is it? Up?"
"Twelve thousand stones for returning to the left prime minister." Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, replied.
"Twelve thousand shi. A few days ago, Cen Shangshu went to Yusi to check, and found that there were only 700 shi of food. Coincidentally, in the past few months, Damo has been stable, and no major disasters have occurred. I can’t get enough of Yu Si’s food reserves.”
"To this day, when a disaster occurs in Gang Lai Province, it depends on the grain storage of Yusi. But if this grain storage is distributed to the people of Gang Lai Province, it will only be a few grains of rice. Moreover, these rice grains It is not used for disaster relief, but for people to plant and harvest food."
After listening to the words of Yang Youcheng, the right prime minister, Guo Kang, the censor of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, already had a rough idea.
"Therefore, I am sending you, the censor of Zuodu, to investigate the case. Cen Shangshu will assist you in investigating the case. This case is of great concern. You will be given a week to find the missing grain." Yang Youcheng, the right prime minister, said.
"Yes, I will live up to the high expectations of Prime Minister Zuo, and we will definitely investigate and get to the bottom of it!" Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, was full of confidence.
Seeing how confident the censor of the left capital was, Yang Youcheng, the prime minister on the right, smiled slightly and looked at Cen Wenxing, the minister of household affairs on the side.
"Cen Shangshu, are you willing?"
"Back to the right minister, I will work with Guo Yushi to investigate the case and find out this official who embezzled grain as soon as possible." Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, promised.
"Okay, let's start now. Try to find out this case as soon as possible."
"Yes." Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, responded.
"Shang Shu, the floods in Jianglai Province have eased in the past two days. The food shipped to Jianglai must not be delayed."
"good."
After the two resigned, they walked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Guo Yushi, where do you plan to investigate this case?" Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, looked at Guo Kang, the Zuodu Yushi, with curiosity.
Guo Yushi sighed: "This case happened in Yusi, so naturally I went to Yusi to investigate the case."
After speaking, Guo Yushi asked what Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, had said.
"Cen Shangshu, you said the food reserves a few months ago were different from today's. What's the difference?"
"Back to Guo Yushi, Cen went to Yusi a few months ago. It was just a few days after our Mo Dynasty successfully defeated the Qi army. At that time, Cen thought that this battle must have cost a lot of money and food. , let’s go take a look.”
"You don't know until you look at it. I was really surprised when I saw it. I never expected that there were more than 12,000 dan in the food. At that time, Cen also guessed that the harvest from this battle would not be enough for this 1,000 dan."
"A few days ago, due to the disaster in Jiang Lai Province, Cen wanted to see if the food stock could save the people from the disaster. As soon as he entered the door of Yusi, it was indeed different from a few months ago. The one near Yusi Gate The grain was piled extremely high, and as it went further back, it disappeared."
Listening to the words of Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, fell into deep thought.
Seeing Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, analyzing for a long time, Cen Wenxing, the minister of household affairs, couldn't bear it anymore and asked curiously.
"Guo Yushi, tell me, who stole this food?"
Guo Kang, the censor of Zuodu, shook his head and said: "I don't know. I will make a conclusion after we find out more about it."
The two of them walked along and arrived in front of Yu Si's door before they knew it.
As Cen Wenxing, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, said, standing in front of Yu Si's door, everyone can see the piles of grain.
"Guo Yushi, please." Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, was very polite.
After all, Yu Si is under the jurisdiction of his own household department, so he can handle small matters by himself, but this is a big matter, and he has to trouble Guo Yushi.
"Hey, okay."
Censor Guo and Cen Wenxing, the Minister of Household Affairs, wore crimson official uniforms and walked in slowly.
As if he was afraid that if he walked too fast, he would trample on the clues.
…
"Yu Si."
"Yu Si."
Yu Li Cen Jiang ran in in a hurry, his face very flustered.
"What's wrong?" Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan asked hurriedly.
"Yu Si, the Minister of Hubu and the Yushi of Zuodu are here." Yu Li Cen Jiang replied in a panic.
After hearing this, Yu Si Bai Gaoyuan was shocked in his heart, but he immediately became calm again and said a few words to Yu Li Cen Jiang: "What are you afraid of?! Go out to greet us, calm down, be calm."
"Yes Yes."
