Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty Five: Tearing the Face (seven more)
Now, Cheng Hu was deliberately wasting time, waiting for the governor Lin Jie to come to the rescue.
Cheng Hu leads the way, walking as slowly as possible.
And Li Min didn't seem to be in a hurry, and didn't rush him at all.
There are more and more people watching behind.
These people were excited and agitated. It seemed that the situation in their Lingchi County was going to change today!
After a long while, Cheng Hu finally walked to the warehouse.
After all, the distance between them is really too short.
He is not a turtle, and he won't get anywhere even if he wastes time.
Next, Li Min ordered someone to open the warehouse. Not surprisingly, there was not a grain of salt in it.
Li Min couldn't help but became furious. He pointed at Cheng Hu's nose and asked, "Cheng Hu, tell me, where are the 10,000 kilograms of salt? Didn't you just say it's in the warehouse?"
At this time, Cheng Hu, who was originally scared to death, calmed down.
Cheng Hu made an expression of disbelief and asked: "Yes, where is the salt? The 10,000 kilograms of salt were originally stored in this warehouse! Why is it missing now? What on earth is going on?
?”
Hearing Cheng Hu's words, Li Min sneered and said, "Is this the Governor asking you, or are you asking the Governor?"
Cheng Hu hurriedly said: "Captain, please calm down. Governor, please rest assured. This must be the clerk in charge of the warehouse who stole the salt in the warehouse and sold it. Governor, please rest assured. Give the official three days, and he will definitely do it."
I can get to the bottom of this matter."
Li Min believed that as long as he was given three days, he would be able to find out the truth.
But how could Li Min let him go so easily?
Li Min couldn't help but sneered: "There is no need for you to investigate this matter! I, the governor, will naturally investigate and get to the bottom of it! Someone come and take down this county magistrate who has neglected his duties!"
Li Min gave the order, and Xue Rengui immediately led his men forward to capture Cheng Hu.
With Zhao Youcai's precedent, Cheng Hu did not struggle to resist.
Now, he completely placed his treasure on Lin Jue.
At this moment, a force of 500 officers and soldiers marched directly into Lingchi County.
This group of soldiers is the escort led by Xue Rengui.
In order to completely clear Lingchi County, Li Min was afraid of any accidents, so he ordered Xue Rengui to send his own soldiers back and dispatched 500 people.
With these five hundred people, Li Min directly opened all the warehouses including the granary in Lingchi County.
And all the people watching outside were let in.
The situation in Lingchi County's warehouses shocked everyone who saw it.
Because the warehouses in Lingchi County are so empty that even rats can't live there.
According to Lingchi County's account books, there are several thousand dan of grain in this warehouse.
These grains can be used if there is a famine or war in Lingchi County.
But now, there is not even a grain of food.
If an accident occurs and there is no food, it will immediately lead to a disaster!
This Lingchi County is really rotten to the core!
After all these scenes, there was no anger in Li Min's heart, only deep sadness.
In the eyes of these aristocratic families, there is no concept of country and people at all.
In their hearts, they only have the interests of their family!
It’s okay not to want such a noble family!
Thinking of this, Li Min ordered his people to quickly control the entire Lingchi County.
In the following time, all account books were sealed and Wang Xiaotong was ordered to start a thorough investigation of all accounts.
This time, Li Min was ready.
He wanted to use Lingchi County as a breakthrough point to conduct a thorough investigation.
Li Min believed that through this breakthrough, the entire bureaucratic network in Yizhou could be completely torn apart.
…
Just when Li Min was thoroughly investigating the problem in Lingchi County, the governor Lin Jie, who got the news, hurried from Yizhou City to Lingchi County with a group of followers.
This time, in order to rush for time, Lin Jie did not even take a sedan chair, but came directly on horseback.
This time, Lin Jie was really panicked and angry.
What's scary is that if he can't secure Cheng Hu, the magistrate of Lingchi County this time, then his rule in Yizhou may become a thing of the past.
It is even difficult for him to protect himself.
What makes me angry is that this Grand Governor is too arrogant and excessive!
It didn't leave him even a little bit of face!
If you want to be so decisive, then everyone should face each other and face each other head on!
This governor wants you to know who has the final say in this three-thirds of an acre of land in Yizhou!
It only took more than an hour for Lin Jie to arrive at the Lingchi County government office at noon.
When he jumped off the horse, Lin Jie's thigh felt burning and painful. It was probably because the skin was broken.
Lin Jie could no longer remember exactly how long it had been since he had been in such a hurry and suffered such a crime.
After arriving at the county government office, Lin Jie went directly to Li Min. He didn't even salute, but looked at Li Min with fire in his eyes and asked: "Captain, do you know what you are doing?"
Li Min said with a smile: "I know, I am doing harm to the people! I would like to ask Governor Lin, do you know who you are talking to? Do you understand the rules?"
Lin Zhi snorted coldly and said: "Grand Governor, the internal affairs of Yizhou are all matters within the scope of the governor. It seems that the Grand Governor has overstepped his control?"
Li Min blinked and couldn't help but ask: "Is that so? Then according to your words, what should I do?"
Lin Jie sneered and said: "The governor, the internal affairs are under the jurisdiction of the governor. Therefore, please hand over all the cases in Lingchi County to the lower officials!"
Hearing Lin Jue's words, Li Min couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Prince Lin, what if I don't hand over the governorship to you? What can you do? Can you still manage this governorship?"
Lin Jue's eyes were blazing and he said: "Captain, then, the lower officials will impeach the Governor! At that time, I believe that the Governor will suffer more than just being reprimanded. I am afraid that he will be transferred out of Yizhou by then.
Even, you will be banned directly!"
Hearing this, Li Min couldn't help but laugh again and said: "Prefect Lin, after hearing what you said, I am so scared! Come on, I will show you something now. Open your dog eyes and take a good look.
,What is written on this!"
After saying that, Li Min took out something from his arms and threw it directly on Lin Zhi's head, and then it fell to the ground.
Lin Zhi angrily picked it up from the ground, and then realized that what was in his hand was an imperial edict.
However, this imperial edict is somewhat different from other imperial edicts.
This is a secret decree.
After opening the imperial edict, Lin Jue read ten lines at a glance and quickly read the secret edict.
After reading it, Lin Jie's face instantly turned pale.
