In fact, for disaster relief under normal circumstances, the money has already gone through several procedures from the capital to the local area, and it will become less and less. It is not necessarily one-tenth that actually reaches the hands of the victims.
As for whose pocket it went into, this is more difficult to check!
Because every official who comes into contact with money has money in their pockets, so don't report me, and I won't report you either. What a rare harmony!
Because of the memory of his previous life, Rong Chang'an can better understand the coldness of the folk world! So she just asked Yan Li to distribute the food on the first day, instead of directly distributing An's money.
Her goal is to use this disaster relief to wipe out all the hidden corrupt officials at once! Return the disaster victims to a clear world and a clear government!
That night, Rong Chang'an and Yan Li made up their plan and set up a net to search for corrupt officials in Linzhou Prefecture!
Rong Changan smiled sweetly, as if he had seen the scenes of those corrupt officials being dealt with, and felt even more at ease!
Yan Li, who was sitting across from him, saw Chang An smiling so brightly, he seemed to let go of the burden of many years and relax in his heart!
"Chang'an, after dealing with these moths of the imperial court this time, it is estimated that within ten years, there will not be too many moths in the Linzhou Mansion." Yan Li took a sip of tea, then curled his lips in disgust, it's really bad!
"Hehehe, Yan Yushi, the biggest moth in Linzhou Mansion right now is in the front yard!" Rong Changan looked in the direction of the front yard jokingly.
Yan Li nodded in agreement, "This big worm has eaten so much rice from the country, do you want to make it spit out some?"
Rong Changan narrowed his eyes, giving off a dangerous aura, and said affirmatively, "That is, it must be!"
Rong Chang'an and Yan Li had already set up a trap, while the magistrate Li Youde, the big moth in the front yard, was discussing with his two confidants how to eat up the money for this disaster relief.
One is Li Zhong, the master of the mansion, and the other is Qin Mo, the prefect's brother-in-law.
Brother-in-law Qin Mo saw that his brother-in-law was also hesitating from his boss, "Brother-in-law, we have to grab such a large sum of money quickly? If it goes to those untouchables, we won't have our share!"
Prefect Li Youde was pondering, pacing and stroking his gray beard, "We must do it first, and quickly. It's just that the imperial envoys this time are General Huguo and Yan Yushi, who have never been in contact with each other before. So, Be careful everywhere! Specific methods need to be carefully considered! Don’t be reckless!”
Master Li Zhong rolled his eyes and echoed, "My lord is right. I heard from the news in the capital that the general who protects the country hates corrupt officials the most, and he can't tolerate sand in his eyes. Once someone delayed the transportation of grain and grass, and was directly arrested The general protecting the country was killed on the spot! But the emperor didn't say a word of blame. So, we must think of a perfect plan!"
The magistrate Li Youde turned his back on his master, and ordered in a low voice, "Li Zhong, you can ask Yan Yushi what he means in the name of visiting later. If he has any thoughts about the money this time, that would be the best. If he is on business If it's public, let's find another way. Be careful and don't talk too much!"
"Brother-in-law, what they came here is just a general who fights and a useless censor. We have been operating here for so many years, are we still afraid that they will fail?" Brother-in-law Qin Mo said carelessly.
The prefect Li Youde's complexion suddenly became gloomy, and his voice became stern, "How many times have I told you, you must be cautious and not be impatient. Think twice before acting, and look at your frizzy appearance! Go back and reflect on yourself!"
Qin Mo was a little timid after being frightened by his brother-in-law's appearance, and bowed to leave, "Yes, then I'll go back first!"
The prefect Li Youde sighed, "You said the Qin family is a scholarly family, why is Qin Mo acting like a reckless man? Hey!"
The master hurriedly persuaded, "My lord, Mr. Qin has been with you since he was a child, so it's a bit arrogant to have you protecting him. After more experience, he will be fine."
The master saw that his lord was in a bad mood, so he hurriedly quit!
Master Li Zhong specially ordered a table of sumptuous meals to be prepared, and brought five or six servants to the backyard.
"Please inform me that Master Li Zhong is begging to see the two imperial envoys!" Li Zhong politely and quietly handed a bag of silver to the guard at the door, but he did not expect to be rejected. Today's task is so difficult to complete!
However, the guard went directly into the backyard to report, and after a while came out and said to the butler, "My lords, please come in." He also made a gesture of invitation!
Master Li Zhong went all the way to the inner hall and knelt down to salute.
Rong Changan dismissed the courtesy lightly, and then continued to read his book, while Yan Li studied the chess game ahead of him.
The master saw that the two great gods ignored him at all, and his heart became more disturbed. He took a breath, forced himself to calm down, and said loudly, "General, Yan Yushi, the prefect has arranged meals for the two adults. You See if it's placed here?"
Without raising his head, Rong Changan ordered coldly, "Bring it in!"
Master hurriedly called the servant waiting outside to bring it in, "Come in quickly! Lightly, put it on the table."
A total of sixteen dishes, with meat and vegetables, red and green, full of color, flavor and taste!
Yan Li's face turned dark instantly when he saw such a sumptuous meal, and he said angrily, "It's full of hunger outside, and your prefect is still here with delicacies from mountains and seas. I must check to see if Prefect Li is corrupt and perverting the law!"
Where could the master be able to bear Yan Li's coercion, he knelt on the ground trembling, begging for mercy, "Yan, Master Yan, please forgive me!"
Yan Li continued to ask, "Forgive me, is your lord really an outlaw?"
The master suddenly came to his senses, and hurried to remedy, "No, my lord is a fair and honest official!"
Seeing the master who was kneeling on the ground in fright, Rong Changan also tensed his face, "Sixteen dishes cost fifty taels of silver. The magistrate is so generous!"
The master gradually stabilized at this time, sorted out his thoughts, and replied, "This meal, yes, is specially prepared for the two imperial envoys. My lords, my lords are grateful for the journey. He usually eats, eats Vegetarian!"
"I see. It seems that the magistrate is a good official who loves the people like a son! You go down!" Rong Changan's tone was very cold.
Although the master was afraid in his heart, he quickly agreed, "Yes, general. The magistrate loves the people like a son, and is a good and honest official."
Yan Li said at this time, "General, since the magistrate is an upright official, let's start investigating other people!" He waved his hand and told the master to leave!
When the master walked away, Rong Changan heheed twice and gave a thumbs up, "Yan Li, you did a good job!"
Yan Li also smiled slightly, "Chang'an, you're not bad either! The prestige of General Protecting the Nation really works, it scared the master to kneel on the ground!"
Rong Chang'an's face froze for a moment, and he snorted, "Am I that scary? Only ghosts and snakes are afraid of me!"
