Chapter 701

The chief envoy asked people to check the account books in Ningzhou overnight. Originally, he was going to ask people to go to the field to check and find out the truth. He didn't want Kong Gu and others to take the initiative to explain the relevant matters in order to shirk their own guilt. Now, even if prefect Lin doesn't admit it, there's nothing he can do about it.

Lord Fang looked down at Prefect Lin and asked, "Lin Guoliang, are you convicted?"

Prefect Lin looked up at Mr. Fang, wanting to quibble, but he didn't want to turn around and see Kong Gu and others kneeling next to him. When they saw him, they subconsciously moved aside, as if he was some kind of plague god of.

Seeing the expressions of Kong Gu and the others, Zhifu Lin's mind buzzed, and it was no accident that Kong Gu and the others identified him.

Prefect Lin stared at Kong Gu and the others with hatred in his heart.

It's a pity that people ignore him at all. They used to be afraid of him because he is the magistrate of Ningzhou. Now he is almost imprisoned. Why should they be afraid of him.

A few people ignored him, turned their heads to look up to Master Fang and begged: "My lord, we have made atonement for our sins, and I hope your lord will give you a lighter sentence."

Master Fang ignored Kong Gu and the others, and turned to look at Governor Lin: "What do you have to say now?"

Mr. Lin is speechless, the matter has come to this point, what else can he say, it's all a failure.

Thinking about it, Master Lin raised his head and stared at Xie Yunjin. He only hated that he hadn't thought of a way to kill this person at the beginning. If he had killed this person, he would not have fallen into such a situation.

Xie Yunjin naturally saw the hatred in Master Lin's eyes, but he didn't bother to pay attention to him at all.

Lord Fang looked gloomyly at Lord Lin who was at the bottom, and said in a deep voice, "Lin Guoliang, you are so brave. You have embezzled nearly one million taels of silver from tea fields and salt fields within less than a year since you came to Ningzhou." , your ambition is big enough, where is the embezzled money now? Hurry up and hand it over."

Where did Mr. Lin go to pay the money, almost nothing was left of the money he scooped up, and he sent someone to secretly send it to the capital.

He did this only to help King Jin ascend to the position of crown prince. When King Jin ascended, he was the only one who had done the work of the dragon. This was a way out for a person with no background like him.

But he didn't expect to be defeated in the end.

Lord Lin kept a pale face and said nothing. Seeing his stubbornness and non-cooperation, Lord Fang immediately ordered his soldiers to go to the Lin Mansion to search the Lin Mansion, and find out the whereabouts of this batch of money.

As for Mr. Lin being sent directly to the prison in Ningzhou, Kong Tuiguan, Gu Jingren and others were also sent to the prison one after another.

Half of the seats in the Ningzhou government office were vacated at once, and the rest of the people had official positions that were too minor and insignificant, and they were usually not favored by Mr. Lin, so they escaped the catastrophe.

Among them, Xia Butou was also imprisoned in the prison for helping the tyrants to abuse others. Xie Yunjin immediately mentioned Zhao Heng as Ningzhou Butou, and asked him to investigate how many of the Ningzhou policemen had bullied the people. If there were any, they should be arrested together. If you want to be detained in the prison, as for the lack of arrests, you will add them immediately.

Although the catcher's income is low, many merchants hope that their sons and daughters will be caught by the government because they are hooked up with the government.

Zhao Heng was ordered to handle the matter, while Xie Yunjin, Hu Tongpan and others accompanied the chief minister to tea fields and salt fields to investigate the details.

The people of Ningzhou soon got the news that the Chief Minister brought people to investigate the corruption of tea and silver in the prefect of Lin and the saltworks. Now the prefect of Lin and others have been arrested in prison.

For a while, everyone in Ningzhou was cheering, and everyone rushed to tell each other, and the whole street was discussing this matter.

People in Xie's mansion are also talking about this matter. Someone brings food to their family every morning. We all know about Ningzhou prefect Lin being sent to prison.

Feng Zhi happily told Xie Yunjin: "My lord will not be in any danger in the future, Madam can rest assured."

Lu Jiao nodded with a smile. Not only is there no danger, Xie Yunjin will be much more convenient to do things in Ningzhou in the future. If there is no accident, the prefect sent by the higher authorities must not be too busy, so it will be more convenient for him to do things.

Lu Jiao was in a particularly good mood, Feng Zhi, Ruan Zhu, Ding Xiang and other little girls all laughed happily, Shan Cha, who had never liked to talk too much, suddenly looked at Lu Jiao as if thinking of something, and said, "Ma'am, why do I feel that your stomach is a little bit tight?" How big is it?"

As soon as Shan Cha said, Feng Zhi, Ruan Zhu, Ding Xiang and the others all looked at Lu Jiao's stomach.

Lu Jiao didn't pay much attention to her stomach for a while. After hearing what Shan Cha said, she quickly lowered her head to take a look, only to find that her stomach was indeed bigger than that of a four-month-old pregnant woman, and it was much bigger.

Lu Jiao's heart sank, the child will not be surprised.

She quickly took the pulse and gave herself a call, but after the call, her face was filled with joy, and her eyes were full of soft light.

Feng Zhi looked at Lu Jiao's expression, this was clearly a happy event, could it be said that the lady is pregnant with twins, this is not impossible, she gave birth to four in one child before, and it is normal to be pregnant again now.

"Madam, are you pregnant with twins?"

Ruan Zhu on one side exclaimed in surprise: "Madam, is it true?"

Lu Jiao looked at the girls beside her with a smile, and nodded happily: "Yes, I'm pregnant with twins."

Feng Zhi immediately shouted happily: "This is a great event, ma'am, hurry up and reward us."

Lu Jiao was extremely happy. She was pregnant with two children, which was something to be happy about.

"Reward, in the whole mansion, everyone will be paid double the monthly money this month."

Shi Zhu was overjoyed when she heard that, she turned around and ran outside: "I want to tell everyone about this."

In the end, in less than half a stick of incense, everyone in Xie's mansion knew that Madam was pregnant with twins, and also rewarded everyone with double the money, and now the mansion was full of joy.

When Xie Yunjin came back in the evening, he saw that everyone looked at him with joy, as if there was some happy event at home.

Xie Yunjin asked Steward Xiao, but Steward Xiao was still mysterious and refused to tell, and asked him to ask his wife.

Xie Yunjin walked to the backyard with an inexplicable expression, Lu Jiao's face was also full of joy, her brows and eyes were indescribably soft, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was like a bright spring.

"What's the matter? Why do I feel that everyone is very happy? What's wrong with this happy event?"

Lu Jiao beckoned Xie Yunjin to come over, and when he walked in front of her, she said with a smile: "Today Shan Cha said that my belly is bigger than other pregnant women, so I checked my own pulse and found out that I was pregnant with twins. "

Xie Yunjin didn't care at first, and said casually, "Twins?"

Quickly reacting, she looked at Lu Jiao's stomach in surprise: "You said you were pregnant with twins, two?"
