Chapter 1273 The investigation team arrives

The work efficiency of Wuyi Palace is very high. It didn't take long for Emperor Jiajing to speak here, and Wuyi Palace has already formed a Jingnan investigation team. After the formation of the investigation team was completed, they set off for the south without a moment's delay.

The Jingnan investigation team has a total of six members. The team leader is Xu Hai, a doctor from the Ministry of Officials' Examination and Purification Department. One hundred households Zhangguyi, Dongchang stall Touhu three pavilions.

Although the Jingnan investigation team has only six members, its composition is complex. The team leader Xu Hai is a member of Li Mo, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and it is a recognized fact that Li Mo is at odds with the strict party; Yihehusange is from Dongchang.

Of course, the Jingnan investigation team is not limited to the six of them. Apart from them, there are also several small officials who follow them as documents and records, and a team of Dongchang fans who are responsible for protecting their safety.

"Xu Jie is really good this time, and he didn't put a single man in." Wang Meng, head of the household department, and others are very satisfied with the staffing of the investigation team.

There are six people in the Jingnan investigation team, half of them are the strict party, so there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

This time, Zhu Ping'an, the boy who made trouble for Mr. Yan Ge, must be completely taken down!

Wang Meng and others are full of confidence in this. Judging from Liu Wannian's impeachment memorandum and Jingnan's official document defining grain prices, it is already an iron fact that Zhu Pingan colluded with grain merchants to engage in corruption. They have absolutely no chance of missing this time! They went there this time, first to further consolidate the evidence, and second, to dig deep into Zhu Ping'an's criminal evidence, and make the case an iron case in front of Dongchang! Drive Zhu Ping'an into a place of eternal doom! It is also good for them to show their faces in front of Mr. Yan Ge and Mr. Yan, and get the qualifications for promotion.

The Jingnan investigation team has two missions. One mission is to check Zhu Pingan's corruption of grain prices. This is also the original intention of the investigation team. Flood disaster, although the imperial court is temporarily unable to rescue, but action is still necessary.

The Jingnan investigation team left the capital and headed south.

Out of the capital, I didn't feel much in Beizhili, but I felt it when I entered Shandong.

The food price in Shandong has risen a lot, from 400 Wen per stone to about 500 Wen per stone. In addition to food, the prices of edible oil, meat, eggs, vegetables, fruits, etc. have now increased, with an average increase of about 20% compared with before. In addition, in Jinan Prefecture, they even found some refugees who fled from the south of the Yangtze River.

Out of the border of Shandong, the further south we went, the more intuitive the investigation team felt about the floods in the south of the Yangtze River.

There are countless hungry people, the refugees are overflowing in the wild, and the crying and howling can be heard endlessly. Every day, you can meet victims who starve to death on the roadside

The picturesque Jiangnan in the past is now full of mourners, miserable, like a **** on earth.

"Everyone says Jiangnan is good, tourists only like Jiangnan old. The spring water is as clear as the sky, painting boats and listening to the rain, is this still the Jiangnan that everyone said?! Sigh, I didn't expect the flood disaster in the south of the Yangtze River to be so serious. The picturesque Jiangnan in the past is now devastated and unsightly.

Along the way, Xu Hai, who saw the tragic scene of the flood in the south of the Yangtze River, sighed more than once.

Wang Meng, Peng Cheng and others were also deeply touched.

Xu Hai and the others wanted to show their love on the way, and distributed some of their surplus food to the victims. Zhang Guyi, a hundred households in Dongchang, reminded them to object, but to no avail. Xu Hai and the others secretly ridiculed them and insisted on distributing them to the victims.

Unexpectedly, a catastrophe was triggered in one minute. The hungry and red-eyed victims around saw it, and swept from all directions like hungry wolves, almost turning from looting into civil uprising. If Zhang Guyi hadn't decisively directed Dongchang Fanzi to disperse the victims with thunder and sticks, Xu Hai and the others might have been robbed without even their pants left. Only now did Xu Hai and the others understand Zhang Guyi's good intentions.

After this catastrophe, Xu Hai, Peng Cheng and the others felt more deeply about the severity of the flood in the south of the Yangtze River.

"People are suffering from hunger and cold so miserable that Zhu Pingan even raised the price of grain to 2,500 renminbi per shi! Alas, these places have not raised the price of grain and are still so miserable. Isn't Jingnan a **** on earth?!"

After Xu Hai and his entourage arrived in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, they saw a land full of hunger, cold and mourning, and Xu Hai couldn't help being filled with righteous indignation.

"The flood has not gone yet, and Zhu Pingan's man-made disaster has come again. Jingnan is estimated to be empty, and the people are probably dying." Wang Meng took the words and belittled Zhu Pingan without losing the opportunity.

"Well, one incompetent general exhausted the entire army, and one incompetent county magistrate exhausted the entire county's people, especially when encountering a corrupt and incompetent county magistrate like Zhu Ping'an, the harm is even worse. The people in Jingnan are the worst."

Zhang Wenbo nodded, cursed Zhu Ping'an, and pitied the people of Jingnan.

"From a miscellaneous point of view, maybe not."

East Factory Criminal Baihu Zhang Guyi, who was riding a horse beside him, twitched his lips silently after hearing their criticism.

He is no stranger to Zhu Pingan. When Zhu Pingan inspected Taicang, he was ordered to bring a group of subordinates to assist him. He witnessed Zhu Pingan single-handedly uncovering the big deficit case of the Taicang bank. He, Zhang Guyi, is a witness to the calculation of the accounts, or the naked **** inspection of Taicang.

Zhu Ping'an's resourcefulness and courage left a deep impression on him.

Whether Zhu Ping'an is a corrupt official, he doesn't know.

But he knew that Zhu Ping'an was a smart man, a very smart man.

How could a smart person like Zhu Pingan engage in corruption by raising grain prices and extorting bribes from grain merchants at such a sensitive time? ! Still posted all over the city? ! Lest the world not know? !

If Zhu Pingan was corrupt, everyone should still praise him for being as clean as water and loving the people like a son.

Therefore, there must be something strange in what Zhang Gu realized. Maybe Zhu Ping'an will surprise everyone when he arrives in Jingnan.

Saving life is like putting out a fire!

After the Jingnan investigation team entered Jiangsu and Zhejiang, with the mentality of saving the people of Jingnan from the fire and water and relieving the people of Jingnan, they went straight to the Taizhou government all the way, went straight to the Yamen of the Taizhou prefect, and informed the Taizhou prefect Tan Lun of their intentions. Tan Lun went with him to Jingnan to investigate Zhu Ping'an.

After all, Jingnan is a county under the Taizhou Prefecture. Tan Lun, the magistrate, must accompany him in terms of emotion, reason, and rules.
