Yu Manlou was beaten like a pig's head, and his arrogance was almost dispersed. Han Huanzhi was very satisfied, especially satisfied.

Because he knew that the things Yu Manlou said were basically irrelevant, and it was far from what he wanted to get from Yu Manlou's mouth.

There must be someone who is a bad person, so he can only be cold and cold.

Chen Leng guessed Han Huanzhi's intention when he saw Yu Manlou when he entered the door and saw that he looked like he was the imperial envoy. He also knew why His Majesty asked him to be the imperial envoy.

Your Majesty needs a wicked man.

Han Huanzhi cannot be this evil person, because the case is handed over to the Tingwei Mansion and the Ministry of Justice. No matter how fierce Han Huanzhi is, he cannot become fierce at this time. He must try his best to make others unable to find fault.

But Chen Leng is different, he must be very fierce.

"The Sheng family is finished."

Han Huanzhi handed Chen Leng a cup of tea: "And Your Majesty means that you can't move people all at once, and you have to come one by one, so the case will be dragged on. There is no problem with moving two or three more companies based on the existing evidence. Now it depends on how to move."

Chen Leng asked: "You asked me to come over, not just to beat someone, right?"

Han Huanzhi smiled and said, "I am handling cases in Chang'an City on behalf of Your Majesty, and you are handling cases in Dongjiang on behalf of Your Majesty, but you are in Chang'an at this time."

Chen Leng: "So what?"

Han Huanzhi: "Let's understand it yourself."

Chen Leng said: "I realized it myself?"

He got up and paced back and forth in Han Huanzhi's study, holding the cup of hot tea, Han Huanzhi asked him to come over to handle the case. The old director had said before that the funds for the battle with Sang Kingdom would be paid in this case. Last year, the treasury money was in deficit, disaster relief, relief, reconstruction, and even the construction of the East China Sea docks was stopped.

So this battle was not the time, but it was not the only way to fight this battle. When will the battle be fought, the Daning family has the final say. Given the Sang Kingdom for a year, they really dare to attack the Daning territory directly.

But if this battle is not resolved at sea, it will depend on the Daning war soldiers to resolve it on the territory of Daning. What would the people think of the navy that was built with a lot of money?

If a navy cannot defend against enemies outside the country, what is the significance of the navy's existence?

"The Sheng family's case is actually not much oil or water to make."

Han Huanzhi said: "The reason why Your Majesty asked you to be an imperial envoy is mainly to make money. The money has been searched for the Sheng family. The money cabinet has already been arranged for the purpose of this money. You should already know that the southern border is flooded, and the Grand Canal embankment is broken for hundreds of miles. Just the fine and confiscation of the Grand Canal embankment is not enough."

Han Huanzhi sighed: "I don't know what happened last year. There was such a large amount of water in southern Xinjiang. The soldiers and soldiers of various guards, plus the wolf apes in southern Xinjiang, all went up. It took at least 200,000 troops more than a month to barely control the situation. They can be blocked and rebuilt."

Chen Leng looked up at Han Huanzhi: "How many people have they killed?"

"Um?"

Han Huanzhi was stunned: "What are you referring to?"

"The Grand Canal has collapsed by hundreds of miles. The local hydraulic officials of the Ministry of Works and local local officials, because the height of the Grand Canal embankment is not broken by a certain place after disrepair, someone will definitely be neglecting his duties."

Han Huanzhi nodded: "Your Majesty is furious, and more than 100 heads are cut off."

Chen Leng: "Give me a list of the people who were killed."

Han Huanzhi asked: "What do you want this to do?"

Chen Leng said: "If you want me to be a villain, then listen to me and let someone prepare a list of people to send them."

Han Huanzhi turned around and ordered: "Go and get the file of the flood case."

Soon, a court magistrate sent the file over, and Chen Leng took it over and took a look: "Xinzhou Prefecture, the head of the Xinzhou River and Lake Supervisor, the county magistrate of Donglou County, the county town, and the river and lake supervisor"

After Chen Leng finished reading the list, he looked at Han Huanzhi: "Let Nie Ye go out with me."

Han Huanzhi: "Where to go?"

"Let me tell you when I'm back."

Chen Leng turned around and went out. Han Huanzhi ordered someone to call Nie Ye. Soon, Nie Ye rushed out of the torture room with his long gown. When he saw Chen Leng, he smiled and said, "Where will the Duke take me to make a fortune?"

Chen sneered: "I won't give you riches to you, Tingwei Mansion."

Nie Ye said: "It's okay, as long as you get rich."

Chen Leng: "You have a high awareness."

Nie Ye said: "The main thing is that I like money, no matter who has money, I like it."

Chen Leng turned around and looked at Han Huanzhi: "This should be my talent."

Han Huanzhi: "Don't even think about it."

Nie Ye asked while walking: "Do you need a humble position to call everyone?"

Chen Leng said: "No, I have someone, the one who takes you can't make a fuss. Your people are fierce, not domineering."

After he left the door, he ordered his own soldiers: "Go and call Chen Ran, and all those who call us come over. After half an hour, we will arrive at Lin Miaozhai."

Nie Ye was stunned when he heard this: "Go to Lin Miaozhai? Duke of the Kingdom, what does the flood case have to do with Lin Miaozhai?"

"I haven't been idle in Chang'an City these few days."

Chen Leng said as he walked: "Although I am in the academy, I have transferred the files to read. I have read all the files submitted to His Majesty by the Tingwei Mansion. The Tingwei Mansion has already checked a lot of things. I ask you, who first invested in Lin Miaozhai?"

"Lin Miaozhai has been in Chang'an for decades, and the first person to invest and operate is not the only one. Judging from the information found at present in Tingwei Mansion, the forces behind Lin Miaozhai may have a very overlap with the forces of the co-existing association."

Chen Leng asked: "Then why hasn't Lin Miaozhai moved yet?"

"Because Lin Miaozhai's shopkeeper Yao Meilun has left Chang'an, it's meaningless to move Lin Miaozhai at this time, but will instead alarm the snake."

Nie Ye said while walking: "Du Tingwei said that it is impossible for the Tingwei Mansion and the Ministry of Justice to investigate so many companies at once. Putting aside any influence, the Tingwei Mansion and the Ministry of Justice together do not have so many people to handle the case. If Lin Miaozhai is touched and the whole body is affected, it will reach the point where it has to be investigated."

Chen Leng said: "The doctor of the river and lake supervisor in Xinzhou is from the Yu family. The doctor of the river and lake supervisor is just a local minor official. He is a sixth rank and cannot say he has any great power. This person is called Yu Zhonghe. In terms of seniority, he is Yu Manlou's uncle, but he is just a foreign family, and his relationship is also weak. I just looked at the file, and there is a picture of Yu Zhonghe's relationship in the file."

Chen Leng looked at Nie Ye and said, "Yu Zhonghe is not close to the Yu family, but her mother is from the Xu family."

Nie Ye said: "The people from the Xu family are also in our hands, and Xu Shaoyan is in our hands."

Chen Leng said: "The relationship between major families is complicated. Yu Zhonghe's mother is from the Xu family, not the person with a heavy weight in the Xu family, but"

Chen Leng thought about it and it was really troublesome to explain it, so he waved his hand and said, "I just asked Han Huanzhi in the Tingwei Mansion. Now among the major families, who are the most powerful people in the court."

Chen Leng looked at Lin Miaozhai who was already in front of him, stopped to wait for others, and continued to say at this time: "Since more than a hundred years ago, the number of people who can make decisions in the court has gradually decreased. When it comes to Your Majesty, no more than ten people in power in each family can be counted as the number of people in power, and the official positions are not very high."

Nie Ye still didn't understand: "Then what should we do in Lin Miaozhai?"

At this moment, Chen Ran brought Chen Leng's 100 personal soldiers. Chen Leng waved to Chen Ran over and said, "Take a few brothers in. People in the world say that Lin Miaozhai is the most elegant place in Chang'an City. Wine, tea, and food are expensive. You can bring people in and consume it."

Chen Leng asked: "Have you brought the money?"

Chen Ran said: "When will I not bring money on me, I am just a mobile vault?"

Chen Leng: "How many did you bring?"

Chen Ran: "There are hundreds of copper coins."

Chen Leng: "Our vault is so big?"

Chen Ran: "You speak softly, and your wealth will not be revealed."

Nie Ye sighed: "Brother Chen, no one cares about your hundreds of money. The amount is too small, and it is a case that the Tingwei Mansion doesn't care about."

Chen Ran said: "I think it's too little if you have hundreds of dollars? Do you believe me if I'm going to Xiaohuaihe with a few hundred dollars?"

Chen Leng said: "Don't be poor for now, go and cause trouble."

Chen Ran: "How big is the trouble?"

Chen Leng: "It depends on how capable you are."

After saying this, Chen Leng looked at a teahouse next to him, waved and took the others into the teahouse. Chen Ran and six or seven personal soldiers walked towards Lin Miaozhai directly.

Nie Ye still didn't understand: "Yao Meilun is not in Lin Miaozhai, and even if Lin Miaozhai is moved now, it doesn't make much sense."

Chen Leng sighed: "You will know in a while. I just want to understand while Yao Meilun is away."

Chen Ran took people to the door of Lin Miaozhai. Several of the guests were surprised to see a group of people wearing military uniforms coming over. How could there be soldiers coming from their place on weekdays?

"This adult."

One of the guests came forward and said politely: "Would you come to Lin Miaozhai for business?"

Chen Ran shook his head: "Privately."

The guy who welcomed the guests was confused: "Do your personal business?"

Chen Ran said seriously: "Yes, if you ask me if I did it, I didn't come to do it, then it must be a private worker. We all came to do it privately."

The guy laughed and said, "Sir, if you come here to drink and have fun, I would like to advise you to change the place, it is not suitable for this place."

Chen Ran: "What do you mean by what you mean by inappropriateness?"

The guy knew that he could not talk nonsense, but a few soldiers came in and made a noise, which made the guests unhappy, and he couldn't afford to offend them. Most of the guests who went in and out of Lin Miaozhai had some identities. Even if they had no identity, they would be entangled with people with identities.

“The consumption here is relatively high.”

The guy took a breath and said politely: "There is a restaurant not far ahead. The price is reasonable. I'm not saying that you don't let you enter here, but"

He lowered his voice and said, "We are all expensive. Even I don't understand why it is so expensive. It's really not affordable."

Chen Ran immediately raised his chin and said, "It's better not to be affordable, it's not affordable. I tell you, I came here today for Lin Miaozhai, and I won't agree if you ask me for the benefits."

Chen Ran stepped forward: "Some of it is money, I want to spend money today."

The guy wanted to say something, the person behind him pulled him and lowered his voice, "Everyone said he was rich, and it was not good to make a fuss outside. Let him go in first and leave it to the shopkeeper."
