Chapter 1,486
Ling Yu didn't find it strange that General Fang was willing to marry Fang Yaoyao to Prince Kang as his concubine.
It was obvious that General Fang was Zhao Hui's man when he went out this time, but he did so in a very subtle way.
Ling Yu thought about the riot and asked, "Has Mr. Zhang's case been investigated?"
Speaking of this, Xiao Lintian became very angry.
In the past two days, the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Internal Affairs have stepped up their investigation of Mr. Zhang's previous accounts for repairing the river. After examining several years of accounts, the imperial court allocated more than 20 million.
Mr. Zhang's account stated that more than 20 million yuan was spent on repairing the river, but Xiao Lintian already knew that Mr. Zhang's account was false from the fact that more than 200 people died.
Take the subsidies for more than two hundred people, for example, there is nothing in the accounts.
It is conceivable that the other accounts must have been misappropriated by them through clever design.
This matter involves a lot of things. Mr. Zhang has been silent, and he has also kept silent about the property found in his home.
The corrupt officials below could not bear the torture and confessed, but the amount they confessed did not match these accounts at all.
Xiao Lintian had originally ambushed the secret guards and waited for Zhao Hui to send assassins to kill people and silence them, but there was no movement in the past two days.
"The scattered stolen money collected only adds up to more than three million yuan, and there is still a lot of money that is unaccounted for!"
Xiao Lintian sneered: "Zhao Hui and Prince Kang must have received the benefits from Lord Zhang, but I can't find any evidence, so am I giving them an advantage in vain?"
Ling Yu thought for a while and smiled: "Didn't you exaggerate the amount of Mr. Zhang's corruption? Why not continue to make a fuss about this matter!"
"How to make a fuss?"
Xiao Lintian humbly asked for advice.
Ling Yu smiled slyly: "Let's just say that there is still a lot of money hidden by Mr. Zhang. When Mr. Zhang is sentenced to beheading, they will take action. They must be reluctant to let Mr. Zhang take this money underground!"
After Xiao Lintian was reminded, his mind began to spin. Only Mr. Zhang knew how much money Mr. Zhang spent.
Now that King Kang and the Zhao family were forced to suffer losses again and again, they were short of money and would definitely not let go of so much money.
"Ayu, you are really smart, okay, I'll do as you say!"
Xiao Lintian had already thought of how to attack King Kang, so he smiled and praised him.
Finally thinking about the marriage grant, Xiao Lintian said: "Pei Yu will be back soon. I want to take this opportunity to grant marriages to Prince Kang and Prince Rui, as well as to An Zhe and Pei Yu!"
Ling Yu knew that Xiao Lintian wanted to take the opportunity to promote An Zhe and Pei Yu, so he nodded.
She thought of King Rui. He wanted to marry An Xin before, but An Xin didn't like him. Princess Pingnan and King Pingnan didn't want to spend the same precious daughter as a continuation for King Rui, so they rejected the marriage.
On the contrary, the Wei Jun whom King Rui has chosen now has a status worthy of King Rui. However, the status of Wei Jun's father, a hussar general, should be what King Rui values most!
Ling Yu had played Cuju with Wei Jun before and had a good impression of Wei Jun.
If King Rui keeps to himself, he will be a good match. But is King Rui really a person who keeps to himself?
Neither Xiao Lintian nor Ling Yu could see through King Rui. King Rui was a person with no sense of existence in the eyes of others.
But this time before the death of the Supreme Emperor, King Rui quietly went to Mohe and did not mention it when he came back, which was enough to make Ling Yu and Xiao Lintian wary of him.
"Xiao Lintian, by giving Prince Rui a marriage to Wei Jun, are you creating a threat to yourself?"
Ling Yu asked casually.
