After hearing Bo Guoduo's words, Yinsi couldn't help but look bitter. There were three people close to him in the five banner masters. There were countless princes and nobles in each banner. He could not help each one or the other. Besides, Bo Guoduo and Yaer Jiang A have a good relationship with the fourteenth on weekdays. Why did he come to his house to ask for help?
Thinking of this, he already understood that the two of them must have been caught in the red flag. Bo Guoduo asked himself that he could not protect too much in front of the fourteenth, so he came to ask himself to do it separately. This abacus was really good.
After pondering slightly, Yinsi lowered his voice and said, "Uncle Fifth, do you see that the fourth-fourth seat is sitting steadily?"
Hearing this, Bo Guoduo was shocked. Could it be that Lao Ba still didn't give up? He couldn't help but complain. This trip was reckless, and these two people could not save themselves from being demoted. If they were involved in a major case of rebellion for this matter, it would be a waste of money.
After pondering slightly, he sighed softly: "It's not that I am ambition to others. The emperor is really a talented person. It's only a few years since the 48th year of Kangxi. He went to Jiangnan to establish the navy. It's not a lucky thing for him to ascend the throne. Before, you brothers could not do anything to him. Who can shake him at all now?"
Yinsi smiled slightly and said, "Since the fifth uncle understands in his heart, why should he compete with the Fourteenth brother?"
Competing? Bo Guoduo couldn't help but be stunned and said in surprise: "Are you saying that the warehouse yard was rectified this time for each flag?"
Yinsi nodded slightly and said, "If what I expected is not bad, the old fourteenth ones will fix the warehouse to find a few scapegoats for the spring drought to block the mouths of the people in the world. The other is that this case involves the grain merchants in the capital who are related to it. Most of the grain merchants in the capital come from the subordinates of the princes and nobles of various banners. Who doesn't know about this?
Furthermore, when the Supreme Emperor was in power, he ordered the Eleventh Fourteen to rectify the flag affairs and solve the livelihood of the flags. The bannermen entered the workshop to solve the livelihood of the flags. Do you think that the Eleventh Fourteen was just a crackdown on the capital and was finished? This matter was just the beginning. Eleventh Fourteen's actions have always been linked together. It is really not simple."
This is true. Judging from the situation of Zhenwu deliberately controlling the rice shops and grain merchants from the beginning, it is true that the drunkard's intention is not to drink, and Bo Guoduo's expression suddenly became gloomy. If this is the case, the princes and nobles under his jurisdiction may not be able to be saved. After pondering for a while, he said: "There is few war now. The title is hard to get, and the court is now vigorously promoting overseas ceasings, and the title becomes more and more precious. It is really atrocity to be deposed for this small matter. Is it impossible to imagine?"
"Uncle Wu was only half right." Yinsi smiled and said, "There will be many wars in the future, but they will be taken over by the navy and the new guards. There is nothing wrong with the Eight Banners in Beijing. But the title of the Qing Dynasty will definitely become more and more precious." After a slight pause, he continued, "It is not impossible to maintain the title, but there will be gains and losses. You cannot get both fish and bear's paws."
Boguoduo stared at him and said, "You mean the position?"
Yinsi nodded slightly and said, "Although the fourteenth acted in a wrong way, he was not paranoid and would never kill him. He would definitely take it as soon as possible. He would be involved in the case of corruption and fraud in the warehouse official Yu's business. Whether he wanted to or not, this position could not be guaranteed. Instead of doing this, it would be better to settle for the second best and take the initiative to write a defense. He resigned. The title might be able to be guaranteed." As he said that, he sighed softly and said, "Let them put their minds overseas. That is the vast sky."
Taking the initiative to write a defense and submit a memorial to resign? Bo Guoduo couldn't help but hesitate. Most of the positions of these princes and nobles were the commanders, deputy commanders, and deputy commanders of each banner. This resignation was like handing over the military power of each banner. Without military power, what kind of power can they have?
Seeing Bo Guoduo hesitating, Yinsi said solemnly: "There is nothing to hesitate. When the fourteenth brother takes action, the military power of each banner will be deprived of clean. At that time, I am afraid you will not be able to get it. Besides, the current Eight Banners Banners in Beijing can compete with the navy and the new guards? It is only a matter of time before the release, cut, rectify and merge. You won't be able to see this, right?"
Bo Guoduo nodded thoughtfully. The expansion speed of the navy and the new guards was quite amazing. With Zhenwu's temperament, it was impossible to raise more than 100,000 useless Eight Banners forbidden brigades. There is no doubt that they will be abolished, reduced, and rectified. It is only sooner or later. Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, the power of the banner masters and princes of the lower five banners has been constantly weakened and suppressed. Zhenwu has no worries with the navy and the new guards in hand. It is imperative to strengthen the imperial power and unify the Eight Banners. I can't see this clearly. Even the Iron Hat Prince will definitely not have a good end. After pondering for a while, he sighed and said, "That's all."
Yinsi smiled and said, "Uncle Wu doesn't need to be upset. This is the general trend. If the red flag can set an example, it may be beneficial. This is a great achievement."
This is indeed a great achievement. Bo Guoduo couldn't help but nodded slightly. It should be no problem to preserve the title of princes and nobles under his jurisdiction.

As the saying goes, one force is to surrender tens of thousands of troops. With the situation of sealing the warehouses, tens of thousands of soldiers entered the major granaries and brought out all the grain stored by the warehouses one by one to scale to check the quality of the rice. No matter how clever the methods of the warehouse officials and officials in the business of private fraud were clever, they would not hide in the face of such extremely clumsy methods.
Zhenwuhua had such a large amount of manpower and material resources to strictly investigate the case of private fraud in warehouses and business operations. Wang Fei, Tian Congdian and other five people naturally did not dare to slack off at all. They were in charge of the granary, and they personally directed and supervised the granary, and they were all in the granary. The main officials were like this, so naturally the officials below did not dare to ignore it. They all worked hard, especially the Hanlin officials of the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial College students. For them, this was an extremely rare opportunity to exercise and perform.
Although the Hanlin officials have a noble status, they are so poor that they are very despised. They hate these city foxes and clubs. Moreover, the case was personally investigated by Zhenwu. If they perform well, they will inevitably be valued. Therefore, they not only have strict supervision, but also devoted themselves to researching the private fraud methods of a group of warehouse officials and officials, hoping to make a splash in improving and standardizing warehouse management systems.
The Imperial College students were qualified to serve as officials after they were released from prison. This job was a real exercise for them. What made them even more excited was that Zhenwu had a large number of seconded prison students in disaster relief and case investigations, which shows that Zhenwu attached great importance to the prison students. The quality of the job was not only related to the reputation of the Imperial College, but also to their future. How dare they not work hard?
In just three days, the results of the investigation of Fuxin Cang, Old Taicang and Tongzhou Xicang were released. The three warehouses had a total of 160,000 stones of rice, wheat, beans, and 150,000 stones were used as the best, involving as many as 74 officials, and twelve grain merchants were involved.
Seeing the relationship between the statistics and the twelve grain merchants, Wang Yu couldn't help but burst into a cold sweat. Only three warehouses had so many deficits. How big is the deficit in the entire Jingtong granary? This was a shocking case. After hesitating for a moment, he hurried into the palace to hand over the sign to see him. The case was too big, and I don't know how many princes and ministers would be involved. This trip was unfathomable, and he did not dare to dedicate himself at all.
In the Palace of Yangxin, Zhenwu was praying for rain and fasting, and he did not believe in the slightest prayer, but he had to do it seriously. Nowadays, he was promoted by the divine authority of the monarch. He was the emperor who was not afraid of heaven. How could he maintain the sacred sacred monarch? Therefore, even if he did not believe, he had to do it and do it with great fanfare.
When he heard that Wang Shu was outside, he asked for a meeting. Zhenwu knew that the case of illegitimate fraud in Cangchangying had a bright future, so he immediately called him in.
The king entered the hall and kowtowed, "I am the queen, please respectfully to the sages." After getting up, he walked a few steps forward and wanted to kneel down, but Zhenwu said in a gentle voice: "Don't give him a seat."
After thanking him, Wang Yu carefully sat down in front of Zhenwu. After waiting for him to sit down, Zhenwu said, "Is there a result or something difficult?"
"Go back to the emperor." Wang Xu bowed and said, "After three days of thorough investigation, the results of Fuxincang, Old Taicang, and Tongzhou Xicang have come out..." As he said that, he reported the results of the investigation in detail, and did not dare to mix any opinions.
Zhenwu didn't say anything after hearing this for a while. Wang Fei didn't dare to look at him. He stared at his toes with all his concentration, but he was quite nervous, afraid that Zhenwu would be furious and wanted to speak. He didn't know anything about such a big case. When he was silent, Zhenwu asked faintly: "How much does it mean to be the best?"
Wang Fei secretly praised the master for his well-being and bowed quickly and said, "When I go back to the emperor, the food used as the best is mainly three types. One is moldy rice and grain, the other is the grain that has been dried for many years. It can be turned into powder with one hand, and the third is the amount of stone and sand mixed with too much."
Zhenwu nodded, and said in a calm tone: "The three warehouses have a total of 2.8 million stones of grain storage, but they have lost more than 300,000 stones. There are more than ten granaries of large and small sizes in Jing and Tongzhidi. How many ten thousand stones will they lose in total?"
Wang Yu dared not answer this, and even if he said too much, he couldn't get it. So he kept silent. Zhenwu pondered Liangjiu and said in a deep voice: "Beijing, the various warehouses are like this. The Shui Qi Cang along the canal is even more unbearable. He led the Shui Qi Cang camp to lead the seven thousand cavalrymen along the Henan River to investigate the Shui Qi Cang, Zhang Boxing, and Ortai quickly went to assist.
The warehouse officials and officials who have been found to be corrupt and invade official grains and grain merchants must investigate the means of corruption and fraud. Regardless of the size of the official position, they will be searched to recover the deficit. No matter who is involved, they will be thoroughly investigated."
"The decree of the empress." Wang Xun bowed quickly.
Zhenwu said with a smile: "Inquiry, continue to increase the intensity of investigation, not only should we investigate, but also dig deeper! In addition, leak the investigation results."
Wang Yu was confused when he heard this. He didn't know why he leaked the investigation results. He didn't dare to think too much. He hurriedly bowed and said, "I respect the orders of the ministers." {Piaotian Wenxue www.piaotian.net Thanks to all book friends for their support. Your support is our greatest motivation}
