Fallen Imperial Consort from Heaven - C999 999 List of deceased
“Furthermore, in the past few days, the Lord Zhu have been busy working for the citizens of the Yizhou, and I have seen it all. Naturally, I am more inclined to believe in the Lord Zhu, and am not in a hurry to check the accounts.”
Yan Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this, almost bursting out in laughter.
“Thank you …” Thank you, my lord, for your praise. ”
Looking at Zhu Yi Dou’s happy expression, Yan Yuan couldn’t help but sneer in his heart. This Zhu Yi Dou didn’t call him Pig One really buried his good name.
“Oh right, Lord Zhu, I don’t know much about the policies here. I would like the Lord Zhu to answer some questions for me.”
“Sire, please speak.”
Yan Yuan pretended to be puzzled for a moment, and then said: “Are the emergency food depots collected by myself, signed, or can they be received by someone else?”
When Zhu Yi Dou mentioned about the emergency grain depot, Zhu Yi Dou felt a burst of excitement in his heart. However, when he thought about Yan Yuan’s praising attitude towards him earlier, that bit of wariness in his heart relaxed.
He replied seriously, “My lord, it is like this. In order to prevent others from falsely claiming or dying, we have to hide the fact that we did not report this information and thus obtain the emergency food. The imperial government has decreed that each person must collect the emergency food, and no one can take it on their behalf.”
“Oh, that is to say, if someone died in this flood, his family wouldn’t be able to receive his portion of food?”
Zhu Yi Dou felt that there was something wrong with Yan Yuan’s question, but he couldn’t figure out what was wrong at the moment. After hesitating for a while, he replied honestly, “That’s right, there aren’t many people who are in need of emergency food, so those who have died don’t have that share.”
“So that’s how it is. I understand, thank you Lord Zhu for your explanation.”
“Of course, milord. You’re too polite.”
“Then I will not disturb the Lord Zhu, you have been busy all day, go rest first.”
“Yes, this official will take his leave.”
Once Zhu Yi Dou left, the smile on his face became cold, and was replaced with a frightening hostility.
He got up and returned to the backyard, and not long later, Tian Shu and the others came back and handed a book in his hands to Yan Yuan.
“Your Highness, I have followed your instructions and have drawn up a list on the booklet. Please take a look.”
“Mm, you guys can leave first.”
“Yes.”
After Tian Shu and the others left, Yan Yuan picked up the two accounting books beside him and started to look through them.
“What is this?”
Liu Ruo Qing knew that one of them was the account book that Zhu Yi Dou had handed in yesterday, and the other was the one that Tian Shu had handed in just now.
“I got Tianshu and the others to go through the household records in the account book and checked the names of the people who died in the flood, door to door.”
Yan Yuan replied as he flipped through the two books.
Hearing Yan Yuan’s words, Liu Ruo Qing understood what she meant, “Are you saying that Zhu Yi Dou was just casually writing accounts and did not pay attention to the people who died in the various families, casually signing a few words and giving it to you?”
“That’s right.”
Yan Yuan smiled, a cold intent condensed in his eyes, “That pig thought that it could deal with me after giving me the account book, but who would have known that he personally handed over a piece of evidence to me.”
Liu Ruo Qing pursed her lips and laughed, she immediately understood what Yan Yuan meant.
“I’ll watch it for you.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, my wife.”
For the past few days, Zhu Yi Dou had not heard of any movement towards the accounts book from Yan Yuan’s side, and his originally tense heart had finally relaxed.
“Lord, it seems that Lord Yan really did not suspect our account books.”
Master Liang was overjoyed, and said to Zhu Yi Dou.
“I wonder if Lord Yan really did not see through it, or if he had no intention of investigating this matter.”
Zhu Yi Dou thoughtfully patted the armrest of his chair and sighed.
“Isn’t it always a good thing for you, my lord? When the relief food arrives, won’t we be able to earn another fortune? ”
Hearing his words, Zhu Yi Dou paused for half a second, and then the two of them laughed together.
and his wife flipped through the two booklets very quickly. In less than an hour, they were completely clear of everything.
Looking at the red name on the account book that Zhu Yi Dou had presented, she sneered, “You’re still a pig, even if you want to fake it, it wouldn’t be so lifelike.”
The account books that Zhu Yi Dou presented, many of the people who signed to receive their names, had all died after the disaster. Now that their signatures were on the account books, it was enough to prove that the account books were fake.
Zhu Yi Dou thought that he was clever enough to pass such an account to Yan Yuan, but he didn’t know that he had dug a huge hole for himself.
Yan Yuan heavily placed the account book on the table, a dense hostility leaking out from his eyes. “One hundred and thirty dead people, he really doesn’t fall one bit!”
He got Zhu Yi Dou to personally tell him about the way to obtain the relief food just yesterday in order to block his way back.
When the time came, he would want to hear how he explained how the one hundred and thirty dead people “resurrected” the food.
“Even if we know that he’s a fraud, we don’t have enough evidence to prove that he’s corrupt. When the time comes, he will definitely think of a way to deny it.”
Liu Ruo Qing said with a face full of indignation.
Yan Yuan squinted his eyes, with an unfathomable expression in his deep eyes, he stood up from Liu Ruo Qing’s side after a while, “I’m going to find Mr. Lu to help out.
“Alright.”
After Yan Yuan left, Liu Ruo Qing did not go to sleep. Instead, she laid on the bed and stared blankly at the ceiling, her hands lightly covering her lower abdomen. There was a new life being born here, it was her second child with Yan Yuan.
The corner of Liu Ruo Qing’s mouth slightly curled up, and her eyes revealed the softness of a mother.
“If Heng Er knew he was going to be big brother, he would definitely be very happy.”
She spoke softly to herself, the gentleness in her eyes undisguised.
Although she was expecting a second child, she didn’t seem to have any pregnancy reactions. In fact, she even seemed to be in high spirits. No matter what, she always felt that she was energetic and didn’t need to rest at all.
Not long after Yan Yuan left, he returned to her room. Seeing that she was still lying on the bed, not sleeping, with a smile on his lips, he followed suit and walked to her side, “Can’t sleep?”
Seeing that Yan Yuan had returned, Liu Ruo Qing sat up, “It’s daytime, of course I won’t be able to sleep.”
Liu Ruo Qing sat beside Yan Yuan, thinking of the reason why she had followed him to Yizhou, and asked: “Regarding the matter of ‘Eternal Rest’, have you found any clues?”
In the past few days, although she did not ask, she did know that Yan Yuan had secretly sent a few hidden guards to the city to investigate any clues related to “Eternal Rest”.
If she didn’t figure out who was the mastermind behind the assassination attempts, she wouldn’t be able to completely calm down.
An opponent with that kind of patience hiding behind his back was not a good thing for anyone.
