Quick Travel: Records of Extraordinary Creatures

Chapter 84 Oath and Avalokitesvara Competing Performance (49)

It is impossible for Tu Minghui not to be tempted by Lin Daiyu, a girl who is so capable and has a close relationship with Pomegranate God, but his own age is obviously not suitable, and some of his sons are of the right age.

But he was also worried about choosing a marriage gift at random.

Don't look back and start a fight for the heirloom again.

So for a while, he didn't think about how to marry Daiyu so as to maximize the benefits.

Only then did he express his desire to see Daiyu for a while.

It's kind of like making a decision in advance.

"Your Majesty, my wife and I are not bothered about Yu'er's marriage. Although the marriage of children is the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, and the emperor's order should be before the order of the parents.

But Empress Pomegranate can be regarded as a teacher for a day, and a father and mother for life. The empress seems to have other plans, so we are going to let Daiyu listen to Empress Pomegranate.

Even if they will get married in the future.

It's all uncertain..."

Lin Ruhai's words were actually equivalent to a very tactful rejection, the Pomegranate Empress was just a cover.

But they asked Daiyu to ask Qu Jie for instructions.

I dare say that only with permission.

Hearing this, Tu Minghui's face was obviously not very good, but he also knew that it was undoubtedly very inappropriate to force a disciple of a god to marry him. The Pomegranate Empress has made great achievements and is the only god in the world who manifests spirits.

So after thinking twice, he could only give up:

"Forget it, since Empress Pomegranate has her own ideas, then I won't interfere, but if your daughter really has an engagement partner in the future, you can tell me, and then I will give you a make-up gift, or turn around It is also possible for me to bestow marriage blessings."

Since there is no way to turn Daiyu into her own daughter-in-law, there is no other way to do it.

"The minister thanked His Majesty in advance!"

Lin Ruhai also continued to reply with a smile.

Then the two chatted a little bit without embarrassment, and Tu Minghui asked Lin Ruhai to step back, and turned to look at Dai Quan: "How true is what he said?"

"Your Majesty, I feel like it's pretty much the same!"

Dai Quan already had the answer in his heart, so he said it bluntly.

"pretty close……

Alas, it's a pity, it's rare to meet a fairy, but I don't have a chance to meet a fairy, but a girl, the fate is not small, maybe I can become a fairy in the future, but I don't have that fate, a hundred years later, I will still be a handful of loess.

That's all, don't expect too much.

It's not bad to be famous in the future. "

Tu Minghui also felt in his heart that Lin Ruhai shouldn't dare to tell too many lies. Since even her parents couldn't learn the exercises that Daiyu learned, it was indeed somewhat special, so how could he be able to learn them.

I'm afraid unless Empress Pomegranate personally teaches.

Otherwise there is no possibility of learning!
It has to be said that Lin Ruhai was able to pass the test smoothly this time, in addition to relying on the prestige of the pomegranate empress, the more important thing is that Tu Minghui is considered a wise king, so how could a foolish king take this into account.

I just insist, what can you do?
Of course, anyway, this matter is temporarily over, and the Lin family has also settled down in the capital.

……

Morning the next day.

Tu Minghui was furious at the court meeting and asked Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of War to jointly investigate the burning of official ships and the assassination of court officials, and the results must be presented within half a month, otherwise they will be questioned.

Then Lin Ruhai was promoted.

Promoted to Yushi Zhongcheng, from the second rank.

How to describe it, this position belongs to the Yushitai, and it can be regarded as one of the several assistant officials under the Yushi doctor.

Further up is Doctor Yushi.

In charge of supervisory power.

Theoretically speaking, there is no Yushitai in the whole world that cannot be supervised or impeached. For example, Xunyan Yushi is a temporary supervisor sent by Yushitai.

In short, this institution is very powerful.

All the officials were vaguely afraid.

Of course, this is what Tu Minghui did on the bright side. In private, he arranged a lot of people to go to Yangzhou Mansion to arrest the officials mentioned in the ledger.

Although Tu Minghui now has enough criminal evidence to order an investigation against those people, but the capital city is indeed a bit far away from Yangzhou, and ordering an investigation is simply to scare the snake away.

No amount of evidence has to be destroyed.

Some people may be able to "suicide in fear of crime".

So it's better to arrest people first.

With the end of the Dachaohui, the entire capital was under martial law, and the Dali Temple was extremely busy. The collection of evidence, the investigation of the investigation, and the interrogation of the interrogation were so busy for nearly ten days. A killer organization, and the joint military dispatched troops to wipe out several branches of that killer organization.

As for the behind-the-scenes instigators of those arsonists, there are still no clues, because those arsonists started to commit suicide one after another after waking up. They were basically knocked out by Lin Daiyu before, and they couldn't commit suicide. Those who came to watch over them were not very strict. I don't know whether it was unconscious laxity or deliberate laxity. Anyway, it gave them a chance to commit suicide.

Everyone is dead, so it is naturally difficult to check down.

In the end, on the contrary, those people secretly sent by Tu Minghui to the Yangzhou government arrested and ransacked the homes of the official salt merchants on the list, and strictly interrogated them. Not only did they obtain a large amount of criminal evidence, but they also got the arsonists by the way. information, and the messenger behind it.

There is indeed a connection between the two things.

In other words, two things can be combined into one thing.

As soon as all the criminal evidence was in hand, Dai Quan immediately took the criminal evidence to the Zichen Palace to meet him, and reported:

"Your Majesty, the matter of Yanzheng and Lin Ruhai's assassination have been fully investigated, and there is indeed a relationship between the two, or a relatively direct relationship.

Yangzhou's salt administration has always been controlled by the Zhen family. The proliferation of private salt and the reduction of salt tax in the past few years are all related to the Zhen family.

And the Zhen family is the purse of the Supreme Emperor.

So no one has dared to investigate, and there are quite a few officials and salt merchants who cooperate in private. Roughly calculated, they can swallow more than % of the salt tax every year.

This is the result of Lin Ruhai's many struggles. Before Lin Ruhai, they were able to swallow % to % of the salt tax.

The assassination of Lin Ruhai this time should be because they suspected that Lin Ruhai secretly collected a lot of account books and criminal evidence and brought them into the capital, hoping to get promoted. The first batch of assassins didn't know exactly who hired them, but there was a high probability that some salt The businessmen privately jointly paid for the employment.

As for those who set the fire later, the current investigation information points to Prince Yizhong. Those people are likely to be dead men supported by Prince Yizhong. In fact, less than half of the money collected by the Zhen family over the years was actually handed over to the Supreme Emperor. , and the rest was handed over to Prince Yizhong.

The whereabouts of the money is very mysterious, and the minister suspects that Prince Yizhong may have raised a lot of private soldiers. "
