Fallen Imperial Consort from Heaven - C998 998 Deception of books

He knelt in front of Yan Yuan and continuously kowtowed. This kowtow was not empty, and with every kowtow, Yan Yuan could feel the ground trembling.

Yan Yuan did not tell him to stop either, and allowed him to knock on the ground in front of him. Not long later, Zhu Yi Dou’s forehead swelled up and a bloodstain appeared on the ground.

Yan Yuan was satisfied and stopped him in his tracks, “Lord Zhu, stop knocking. This king has never said that I don’t believe you, why are you treating yourself like this …”

Zhu Yi Dou, “…”

He could not help but curse Yan Yuan in his heart: Since this brat did not say that he did not believe him, why did he have to kowtow until he was about to faint to make him stop.

Although Zhu Yi Dou was extremely dissatisfied in his heart, he did not dare act rashly in front of Yan Yuan. He forced out an extremely unsightly smile: “Thank you, Sir. Thank you for believing me, thank you ….”

“I didn’t say I believe you.”

Before Zhu Yi Dou could finish thanking him, he was heartlessly interrupted.

Being choked by Yan Yuan’s words, his smile also froze on his face. He did not know whether to laugh or not.

“My lord, you have to let me see the evidence. Since the emergency grain depot has been released, there should be records of them collecting food, right?”

“Yes, yes, yes, my lord.”

Zhu Yi Dou suddenly slapped his forehead, as if he came to a realization. Because he had used too much force, the area where his forehead was red and swollen was slapped by him like this, causing him to immediately grimace in pain.

“This official will have someone take the account book.”

With that, he signaled Master Liang with his eyes. Upon receiving the order, Master Liang quickly turned around and left.

Very quickly, Master Liang brought over the account book that he had prepared beforehand to trick Yan Yuan, “Master, the thing you want.”

Master Liang handed the account book over to Zhu Yi Dou. Zhu Yi Dou took it and respectfully handed it over to Yan Yuan, “Master Yan, please have a look.”

Yan Yuan received it with a faint smile, but placed it aside and did not directly open it.

Seeing that, Zhu Yi Dou’s brows twitched, he thought that Yan Yuan did not believe that the account book was real, and did not even bother looking at it.

He looked towards Master Liang and the two of them frowned. Zhu Yi Dou was uneasy inside, so he asked in a trembling voice, “Master, you … “But did you just take a look?”

“There’s no need to rush. I’ll check it out when I get back later.”

Yan Yuan raised his eyebrows, seeing that Zhu Yi Dou’s forehead was covered densely in sweat, a cold sneer flashed past his eyes, but he did not show it on his face.

He actually dared to go and embezzle with this kind of courage.

“Don’t worry Lord Zhu, as long as Master has never done anything that is too greedy for the law, I will definitely not wrongly accuse you.”

The meaning of his words was that if you dare to embezzle, I won’t forgive you.

Zhu Yi Dou’s heart sank, he was a little unsure of what this young minister in charge was thinking, but he was clear about one thing, to be able to sit in a position like the Minister of Revenue’s position at such a young age, it was impossible for him to not have some tricks up his sleeve.

Zhu Yi Dou knew that the person in front of him was hard to deal with, and did not have much confidence towards the account book that he had made in just two days. Regarding Yan Yuan’s words, he did not dare take it, and only smiled awkwardly, “Master, you are right.”

has official business to attend to, so I will not delay Master any further.

Zhu Yi Dou naturally did not dare to show off in front of Yan Yuan, and the more he did so, the less confident he became.

“Then this official will take his leave.”

“Take care.”

After Zhu Yi Dou left, the smile on Yan Yuan’s face instantly disappeared, and his gaze coldly swept across the accounts at the side, the light in his eyes slowly growing brighter.

After leaving in front of Yan Yuan, Zhu Yi Dou followed Master Liang out of the county. It seemed that even the slightest distance between them and the attendant would make him feel that the pressure had lessened a little.

“Lord, do you think that … Does Lord Yan believe us or not? ”

Master Liang recalled Yan Yuan’s expression just now and couldn’t really say for sure.

Zhu Yi Dou squinted his eyes and shook his head. After a while, a hint of fierceness flashed past his eyes, “If he really walks to the end and refuses to drink, I will not be courteous to him.”

When Master Liang heard the killing intent that was suddenly condensed in Zhu Yi Dou’s eyes, his body trembled, and a trace of fear flashed past his eyes.

“Milord, are you thinking of …”

“Don’t be in such a hurry. We’ll take things one step at a time.”

Zhu Yi Dou did not elaborate. Since he dared to create lies in front of the envoy, he naturally had to be prepared for multiple moves.

Liu Ruo Qing had been very obedient these two days. She told her not to run around, so she stayed quietly in the county magistrate court. She knew that she had lost her martial arts.

She couldn’t let Yan Yuan be distracted because of her.

Sitting in his room in a daze out of boredom, Yan Yuan had already returned from the past hall with something that looked like an account book in his hands.

Liu Ruo Qing looked at him, and raised his eyebrows while smiling, “Did you really get the account book back?”

Yan Yuan walked to her side and sat down, then casually rubbed her head and said: “Zhu Yi Dou dared to take out a fake account. He was actually lying to me, other than trying to deal with me, I think he has other backers as well, Yizhou might not be that big, but does he dare to swallow all these years of emergency food by himself?”

Yan Yuan scoffed, and did not pay any attention to the account book, as he casually flipped through a few pages and put it aside.

“Then what are you going to do?”

Liu Ruo Qing asked curiously.

Seeing Yan Yuan looking at her, she scoffed with a mysterious smile. “Of course … We’ll catch them all in one fell swoop. ”

Liu Ruo Qing did not question her in detail. Looking at Yan Yuan’s expression, she knew that Yan Yuan had already made a thorough plan in his heart.

After that, Yan Yuan called for Tian Shu and the others, and after telling them a few things, he let them leave.

During that entire day, Zhu Yi Dou didn’t know if it was to avoid him, or if he really had something important to do, but it was only until nighttime that he finally saw the figure of Yue Yang’s figure.

“For the citizens of Yizhou, this official is very pleased.”

“Sir, you praise me too much. This is what this official should do.”

Zhu Yi Dou laughed awkwardly, facing this young man in front of him, he did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

Seeing that Yan Yuan had not mentioned the matter of the account book at all, Zhu Yi Dou’s heart was still in suspense. After hesitating for a while, he decided to ask again: “My Lord, may I ask about the account book … Have you seen it? ”

“Not yet.”

Yan Yuan laughed lightly, and replied casually, as though the disaster in Yizhou was not a big deal to him.

His attitude toward the account book was enough to tell that Zhu Yi Dou had secretly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.

From the looks of it, Lord Yan probably came here just to deal with the Emperor. This is good as well. As long as this waiter wasn’t focusing all his energy on disaster relief, he naturally had a way to get past it and deal with it.
