Chapter 125 Damn it!

"What's going on? Didn't the imperial court have any surplus food? Why did they open warehouses for disaster relief? Isn't this a plan to slow down the troops?"

"It's very possible. After all, there are people in the court who have greeted them. They definitely don't have any surplus food. This time they suddenly have surplus food. Could it be a random fabrication?"

"Hehe, just kidding, if there is really food, why is it three days later? Isn't this just delaying?"

"Yes, yes, it is very likely that this is the case, hahaha~ this time we still made a lot of money."

All the aristocratic families talked about it, and at the same time, they were sure that Li Shimin had absolutely no extra food.

Master Lu listened quietly to the conversation of these people, and did not pretend to join in, but frowned.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed. During these three days, there was actually no robbery of food. At the same time, many people calmed down, unlike before.

But these aristocratic families were a little anxious. They prepared a lot of food and supplies, but because of Li Shimin's imperial decree, they were defeated like this?

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little panic and confusion.

And soon came the fourth day, which was also the day arranged by the court to open warehouses and release grain.

Everyone came to the outside of the granary, and sure enough, they saw a lot of soldiers putting out the grain. Immediately, the people in Chang'an City cheered and jumped for joy. It seems that Li Shimin did not deceive them this time.

However, those aristocratic families suddenly looked ugly, and they were all furious.

"Damn it, I didn't expect His Majesty to actually open a warehouse to release food. Damn it."

"Patriarch Lu, what should we do now? We bought a lot of food, is it just wasted like this?"

"Yes, Patriarch Lu, we must find a way to do this, and we can't just give up like this."

"Okay, you all stop arguing, this time the people who open the warehouse for food relief are members of my Lu family, why are you panicking." The head of the Lu family said impatiently. After hearing this, the other people suddenly realized one by one. .

No wonder Patriarch Lu hasn't changed his expression for such a long time, he already has his own plans in his relationship.

Thinking of this, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

"Master Lu, do you have any ideas?" Master Cui asked again, with impatient eyes.

Among all the aristocratic families, the Lu family has the greatest power and is also the most powerful, so basically when they encounter problems, they always ask the head of the Lu family for their opinions.

It's the same this time.

"Patriarch Cui, you don't have to worry. I have already said hello this time. When the time comes, all the rice in the granary will be sold to us. When the granary runs out of rice, they will still have to come to us."

"Hiss! Gaoming, but is this okay?" Patriarch Cui couldn't help asking, once the matter was revealed, it would be the crime of beheading.

"Suppress the bold, starve the timid, don't you know this sentence?" Patriarch Lu sneered, not paying attention to these things at all. In his eyes, only making money is the most important thing.

When the other Patriarchs heard the words, they expressed their opinions one after another and followed Patriarch Lu to do it together.

There are more and more disaster victims in Chang'an City, Changsun Wuji and others are very busy, and the court even made a big donation. Countless officials either voluntarily or were forced to participate in this time. donate.

And Changsun Wuji donated more than half of his belongings, his face wrinkled with distress.

Time passed slowly, and soon another half month passed.

The victims were greatly comforted, but Li Shimin became particularly nervous!

"What? The food is gone? How long has it been? Why is it gone!"

Li Shimin's roar came from the Tai Chi Hall, and the officials below said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, there are too many disaster victims, so...so..."

"Get out!" Li Shimin roared angrily, and the official fled immediately. Li Shimin trembled and almost fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty, General Li is here."

"Let him in." Li Shimin immediately said, stabilizing his figure, watching Li Junxian walk in, his face changed slightly, and his brows were tightly frowned: "Junxian, how is the investigation going?"

In the past few days, Li Shimin has already noticed that something is wrong this time. Every time he reports something, there is a certain amount of difference. This makes Li Shimin more sure that there is definitely something hidden about the opening of the food warehouse this time.

So Li Shimin asked Li Junxian to investigate early.

"Your Majesty, it is really hateful that these officials who opened warehouses to provide food are colluding with those aristocratic families."

"This is all evidence of their union." Li Junxian said, and handed over a stack of ledgers.

Li Shimin took the account book, and after just a few glances, he was furious.

I can clearly remember every stroke above, and even the amount of money left is verbatim. Li Shimin was trembling and furious, wishing to kill him soon!
"Damn it! This group of damned corrupt officials actually do such corrupt and lawless things at this time, it's really hateful!"

"Jun Xian, I order you..." Before Li Shimin finished speaking, Wang De's voice came in again: "I report to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Liang is asking to see you."

"Min'er? What is he doing here?" Li Shimin was a little curious, but let Li Yin in anyway.

As soon as Li Yin entered, he went straight to the point and said: "Father, my son has something important to report, and he became suspicious. Those officials who opened the warehouse to release grain filled their own pockets, causing the disaster victims to die tragically!"

hiss!
Li Shimin gasped, how did Li Yin know about this?Could it be that Li Junxian revealed it?
Li Shimin turned his head to look at Li Junxian, and Li Junxian shook his head in fright: "Your Majesty, I don't know anything."

"Eh? General Li, why are you here?" Li Yin saw Li Junxian at the side, and was puzzled, but after thinking about it carefully, could it be that something happened to Li Shimin's face so ugly?

"Uh, His Royal Highness Liang, in fact, His Majesty asked the minister to investigate this matter a long time ago, and the minister also investigated it. These are the evidence." Li Junxian pouted, and Li Yin saw the account book on the table, and immediately Puba pupa went forward to read it, and suddenly his face became ugly, and the whole person was even more angry!

Whether it is the 21st century or now, Li Min hates these corrupt officials very much. Every tael of silver they get is stained with the blood of the people!

But this time, Li Yin saw the corpses of many common people scattered all over the place, it was too horrible to look at!
"Father, these people are really hateful. If they are not punished, they will definitely leave hidden dangers in the future, and those aristocratic families will also be arrogant and domineering. This matter must not just pass like this!"

"Father, my son, please order to arrest these corrupt officials with your own hands and bring them to justice!"
