Chapter 706: Collusion between officials and bandits
Looking at Yuan Yuan.
Li Chengqian also had a look of helplessness on his face.
She is obviously a pretty girl, why is she thinking so much about fighting and killing?
Could it be that the only connection between him and me was that she wanted to kill people?
"If I really want to kill someone, I can do it myself."
"The main thing is that you can't just kill a few people."
"After all, Liangzhou's officialdom is so big, I can't kill everyone, right?"
Li Chengqian shook his head and sighed: "If I kill them all, who can help me?"
"Then you just watch those corrupt officials get away with it?"
Yuan Yuan hugged her shoulders and said, "I heard when I came here that almost everyone in the Liangzhou officialdom is unclean."
"If the quilt is not clean, the quilt will not be clean."
"Besides, I don't care how much money they get."
"What I care about is whose money they took."
Li Chengqian said: "It's okay for them to take advantage of the project funds issued by the imperial court."
"After all, that's the extra workload the court gave them."
"Let them work overtime on projects when they should be resting."
"So it's natural for them to be greedy."
"What I really can't stand is that these people are greedy for the money of war orphans and the hard-earned money of ordinary people."
Li Chengqian looked at Yuan Yuan and said, "Tell me, these people are even greedy for money stained with human blood. Do they have any humanity left?"
"I don't know if there is any humanity."
"But I know they all deserve to die."
After finishing his words, Yuan Yuan looked at Li Chengqian.
The two just stared at each other for a long time.
Yuan Yuan then opened his mouth and said, "Do you want to follow me for a walk among the people?"
"Not going."
Li Chengqian shook his head.
"Why?"
"Don't you want to collect evidence of their crimes?"
Yuan Yuan was a little confused and said: "How can you collect it if you don't go to the private sector to investigate?" > "If we can collect evidence of their crimes by going to the private sector, are they still worthy of being corrupt officials?"
"You think things too simply..."
"If nothing else, just say these guys, they dare to kill me even for the evidence that tainted my life in prison. What else can they not dare to do?"
"Nowadays, these things have probably been spread out for a long time. Even if we go to the private sector, how many people will dare to tell us the truth?"
Li Chengqian shook his head and smiled bitterly: "So, it's useless if you don't go to the people now."
"Then we can only wait here?"
Yuan Yuan looked at Li Chengqian and said, "It's not an option for you to wait like this, right?"
"Waiting is not an option."
"But waiting will still have an effect after all."
Li Chengqian raised the corner of his mouth and said: "At least, if I don't move, they won't dare to act rashly."
"But, you can't just waste it like this, right?"
Yuan Yuan had some difficulty understanding Li Chengqian's thoughts.
After all, in her opinion, when encountering something like this, she should quickly collect evidence and bring the other party down quickly.
Otherwise, if it continues like this, wouldn't it be tantamount to aiding the evildoer?
But how could she know how deep the waters in Liangzhou's officialdom were?
In particular, many people came out to conquer the world with Li Shimin.
If Li Chengqian were to be tough directly, Li Shimin would be in trouble before the people said anything.
But I thought of this.
Li Chengqian's heart suddenly moved.
He looked at Yuan Yuan and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of it earlier?"
"What?"
Yuan Yuan looked at him with some confusion.
"I can't move, but that doesn't mean you can't move."
Li Chengqian walked up to Yuan Yuan and whispered a few words into her ear.
hear about him
After speaking, Yuan Yuan looked puzzled: "Are you sure?"
"Of course."
Li Chengqian smiled and said, "If you can accomplish this, you won't have to worry about Liangzhou's officialdom."
"That's okay."
"I'll do this for you."
Yuan Yuan stood up and said immediately: "But you have to remember this. If I do this, you must at least give me two jars of good wine."
"Okay, okay, these are all small things."
Li Chengqian waved his hand to Yuan Yuan and said: "If it's done, let alone two jars of wine, I can even marry you."
"Glib tongue."
Yuan Yuan rolled her eyes at Li Chengqian, and then walked out of the government office.
Looking at her leaving figure, Li Chengqian was in a daze.
After an unknown amount of time, he turned around and sighed quietly.
…
Li Chengqian's idea was very simple.
Just use Yuan Yuan's identity to ask her to contact the gangsters in Liangzhou.
Although these people live at the bottom of society, almost everyone has a wide network of contacts.
It would be much better for them to investigate for him than for Li Chengqian to investigate on his own.
And Yuan Yuan really did not disappoint Li Chengqian.
At noon this day.
Li Chengqian was preparing to eat.
Yuan Yuan walked in from outside.
When she saw Li Chengqian, she reached into her arms, took out two letters and threw them in front of Li Chengqian.
She said: "Hey, you want the evidence of guilt."
Seeing this letter, Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows.
He put down the bowl and chopsticks and opened the two shabby-looking letters.
The titles of the two letters are different.
The content of the first letter was quite simple, just a simple address and a time.
The second letter was the other party's reply to Zheng Kuan.
reply It is clearly written on it that more than 30 people from Shengliang Company have been killed by our troops. All the money and goods have been recorded in the account and will be delivered to the Lord soon.
Li Chengqian frowned, looked at Yuan Yuan, and asked suspiciously: "Who wrote this?"
"History of Inspection of Longyou Road, Zheng Kuan."
Yuan Yuan said: "A friend of mine got this from a group of bandits who were wiped out accidentally."
"And my friend also told me that since Zheng Kuan came to Longyou Road to make an inspection history."
"It was better in the past few years, but in the past few years, it has been all kinds of evil."
"Especially for these businesses, it would be a disaster."
"You have also seen that when these merchants go out to Liangzhou to do business, they will inform the bandits in the nearby mountains of these things in advance."
"Even some bandits are simply the retainers of Zheng Kuan."
"After receiving the news from Zheng Kuan, these bandits will go out to kill these trading houses and loot all the money and goods."
"After getting the money, they would lose it to Zheng Kuan through gambling."
Yuan Yuan shook his head and said: "No wonder you can't find anything. What he did is really watertight."
After hearing these words, Li Chengqian's face turned dark.
What's this?
Are officials and gangsters colluding?
Li Chengqian finally understood why there were so few business houses in Liangzhou.
It turns out that they were all killed by Zheng Kuan in collusion with bandits...
"Zheng Kuan, Zheng Kuan!"
"You are so brave..."
Li Chengqian looked back and took a long breath, trying to calm down his angry mood as much as possible.
He looked straight at Cheng Huailiang who was aside and said, "Huailiang, how did you do what I asked you to do?"
Hearing his question, Cheng Huailiang quickly replied: "They have already set off, and they will arrive in Liangzhou in the next few days."
"good."
Li Chengqian pressed the desk tightly and said: "The things in Liangzhou are really getting more and more interesting..."
