Chapter 1307 Character Relationship
Wei Lan leaned over and said, "The dark eyes have passed."
The emperor sat down and raised his lips slightly: "I want to know what military expenditure that Chen Leng said was, where did it come from, and how much it is."
Lai Cheng sighed: "Chen Leng is considered an old man. Why is he so careless and his wealth must not be revealed."
Emperor: "Hmm?"
Lai Cheng: "It's okay, I'm talking nonsense."
General's Mansion.
Chen Leng looked at Yao Chaozong, who had been removed from his official uniform. Yao Chaozong looked surprised and angry. He also looked at Chen Leng, and the two looked at him.
"Duke Anguo, if there is no reasonable explanation for this matter, even if the official position is low and the official position is light, he will be fair in front of His Majesty."
Chen Leng said: "What you will meet with Your Majesty is just after signing and sealing."
He pulled a chair and sat opposite Yao Chaozong: "Now I ask you what you should do, you'd better explain it truthfully, because I'm a soldier, and the soldier means not being patient."
Yao Chaozong snorted coldly: "Duke An Guo really knows how to laugh at himself, but I believe Duke An Guo still puts national laws first."
He said word by word: "I don't know your subordinates, nor do I know how much military expenses he stole. I got the news that the lieutenant of the war soldiers was rampant in Lin Miaozhai, and the large amount of money was unknown, so I brought people to check it."
Chen Leng: "Why are you?"
Yao Chaozong said: "I happened to meet me."
"That's a coincidence."
Chen Leng said: "I have been doing something in Chang'an these days, and people in the Tingwei Mansion will feel extremely overwhelmed to sort out the relationship between people. I asked for a file of a flood case from the Tingwei Mansion. The main thing is to look at the relationship between Yu Zhonghe, the doctor of the river and lake supervisor in Xinzhou."
He leaned back and made it feel more comfortable to sit, and continued slowly, "Yu Zhonghe's mother is from the Xu family. She is considered to be Xu Shaoyan's cousin, but the church is far away. Maybe even Xu Shaoyan doesn't know that he has such a cousin. In fact, he knows and knows it very clearly because he has used this person."
"The interpersonal relationships of you big families are too complicated. It took me three or four days to sort out the problem, especially those who are in the middle of the situation, which is even more so."
Chen Leng said: "After twenty years ago, something happened to your Yao family. His Majesty had just arrived in Chang'an. Yao Chaoyuan, do you still remember? Your real cousin is very close, but you are a teenager older than you, and your father has more than a dozen brothers. Yao Chaoyuan is your father and your uncle, and your father ranks eleventh."
"At that time, Yao Chaoyuan was also an official in the Ministry of Works. The Ministry of Works wanted to expand the treasury. When this was done, your cousin Yao Chaoyuan forced more than 20 households to be forced to leave, but the deaths broke out. The Tingwei Mansion investigated, and Yao Chaoyuan ate tens of thousands of taels of silver from it, and the house was also found out. Therefore, the Yao Chaoyuan's family was raided, his head was beheaded, and his family was sent to slaves."
When he said this, Yao Chaozong's face had already begun to turn pale.
But he still held on, glared at Chen Leng and said, "Duke An Guo, what's the use of you and me to fill out these old accounts? I had just entered the official position when Yao Chaoyuan committed the crime, and was not in the Ministry of Works, so I had nothing to do with him. His Majesty also asked the Tingwei Mansion to investigate clearly. None of our Yao family knew about this case, otherwise why wouldn't Your Majesty deal with us?"
Chen Leng said: "Listen to me."
He raised his legs and looked more leisurely.
"Yao Chaoyuan's family was sent to be slaves, and your aunt begged your uncle to plead in front of His Majesty. In the end, His Majesty was kind. All the adults in Yao Chaoyuan's family were sent to be exiled, and all the children were pardoned. Most of these children were adopted. After all, you, the big families, have complicated relationships."
"Your aunt is Yao Simiao, and your uncle is Xu Shaoyan."
Chen sneered and said, "Who has Yao Chaoyuan adopted his eldest daughter? He was adopted by Yu Zhonghe's mother. Let's sort out the relationship between Yu Zhonghe's mother and Yu Zhonghe's mother is from the Xu family. Xu Shaoyan pleaded for mercy. Yao Chaoyuan's daughter was adopted by Yu Zhonghe's mother. It was the kindness of your aunt and uncle."
"This girl changed her surname to Yu Zhonghe's house and named her Yu Meilun."
Chen Leng looked at Yao Chaozong: "Do you still need me to continue talking now? I have guessed it long ago that if Lin Miaozhai has something to do, he will ask you to come forward when Yao Meilun is not here. I thought you would be more careful, but you showed up directly."
Chen Leng said: "Yao Meilun is your niece. You must know it, and Xu Shaoyan must know it. Let me tell you one more thing. The relationship between Xu Shaoyan and Yao Meilun has not been found out in the Tingwei Mansion. I found out that, do you say I am awesome? "
Chen Leng pressed forward and said, "Now I suspect you misappropriated a large amount of the Ministry of Labor's disaster relief funds and transferred them to Lin Miaozhai."
Yao Chaozong's face was pale, but he still sneered: "Even if the relationship between the characters you sorted out is right, so what? I can say that I don't know, and I have never misappropriated a copper coin from the Ministry of Works. Duke An Guo, what can you do to me?"
"I said it."
Chen Leng stood up: "I am a soldier. I don't like investigating cases. I just like to make people deserve it. We omitted the process of interrogation and investigation and just convicted the crime directly. The biggest business of the Sheng family is water transportation, which involves both sea transportation and canal transportation. Most of the approvals from the Sheng family's water transportation caravans are from your hands. You are the director of the Water Department."
Chen Leng said: "I am the imperial envoy appointed by His Majesty. I am responsible for investigating the case of the Sheng family. You are involved in it now. I have the right to decree the officials below the third and then report. I am not asking you something, but telling you that you can die."
Chen Leng waved his hand: "Cut him."
Chen Ran came up with his personal soldiers and dragged Yao Chaozong to the middle of the yard. Two personal soldiers pressed Yao Chaozong's arms. One of them grabbed Yao Chaozong's hair and grabbed his head forward. Chen Ran pulled out the black thread knife with a whistle.
"Duke Anguo!"
Yao Chaozong shouted loudly: "I am not convinced! What you said cannot condemn me at all. All the criticisms of the Sheng family's fleets are reasonable and legal, and there is no dereliction of duty. Even if His Majesty asks me, I dare to say that!"
"Your Majesty will not ask you, but you will see your head."
Chen Leng ordered: "Cut it!"
Chen Ran's sword was about to fall, and Yao Chaozong called out: "Duke Anguo!"
Chen Leng asked: "What are your last words?"
"What do you want to know?"
Yao Chaozong completely collapsed, his whole body trembled, his face pale as if paper: "What do you want to know?"
Chen Leng's lips raised: "You finally touched me with a word. I want to know, where is Lin Miaozhai's property? It's impossible that it's all in Lin Miaozhai, nor can it be on the open account of the money house. I can't kill you or even let you go back, but I must get this money."
"exist"
Yao Chaozong suddenly realized that if he confessed, wouldn’t he be dead?
"You want to check the co-existence meeting."
Yao Chaozong suddenly laughed: "I finally understand what you mean, Duke An Guo, I'm sorry, you can chop my head now."
