Chapter 162
"Have you found out what you checked now?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have already made some plans, but there are too many people involved in this case, and the relationship is too complicated. I'm afraid it will take some time, Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

"I'll give you time, but the frontline soldiers can't afford to wait, and I don't want more defective products to be shipped to northern Xinjiang!" Looking at An Jianqing who was kneeling on the ground, Zhao Yuanteng sat up from his seat, He read the memorial handed over by An Jianqing with a bad look on his face!

"Your Majesty, after a period of careful investigation by Jin Yiwei, a group of officials headed by the minister of the household department, Fang Tingyu, took bribes. The evidence is convincing, and many of the materials shipped to the front line were shoddy. The co-conspirator was a member of the household department. Dozens of officials, including Foreign Minister Shen Yunfei, Military Minister Jiang An, etc., participated in this, and there are still many accomplices!"

"The Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War colluded with each other, hum!" Seeing the details recorded in the memorial, Zhao Yuan was filled with anger.Even if all the money was taken from the internal treasury and did not go to the national treasury, they could still get it into their own pockets by all means.

If Jin Yiwei hadn't found out in advance this time, Zhao Yuan would have been kept in the dark.Unexpectedly, the previous killings did not frighten them, but my gentle behavior during this period made them more and more arrogant.Dare to even touch the supplies on the front line, this has undoubtedly touched Zhao Yuan's bottom line!
At the beginning, their actions were very secretive and careful, and the amount they moved was not large, they were just making some fuss about the accounts.Basically nothing can be seen from the accounts and materials.The supplies sent to the front line are indeed the best, even if the price is a bit expensive, Zhao Yuan doesn't care.Moreover, Jin Yiwei's main force was used to spy on the enemy's military situation, and they didn't realize it.

However, as the territory of the Dazheng Kingdom became larger and larger, with more and more troops, and the recent frequent wars, countless gold and silver were exchanged for military supplies and shipped to the front lines.As they become more and more comfortable doing this, they are increasingly dissatisfied with the sneaky way of making money.

It's just that there is less manipulation in the accounts. It doesn't matter if the materials are more expensive, and no one will notice, but if they are too expensive, it will be too obvious.This method is dangerous and the harvest is not as fast as using inferior goods as good goods. As long as the difference is not too big, there will be no big problem!
These actions are very secretive and careful, and most people can't even notice them.But now that the Dazheng Kingdom and the Dakang Kingdom are joining forces to deal with the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yuan also wants to compete with the Dakang Kingdom after that, so the materials are gathered in southern Xinjiang, and their scale and value are far beyond before!
These people, who had never been caught, became bolder and became more and more unscrupulous.Not only have they begun to tamper with the accounts, but now even the materials shipped to the front line have begun to be tampered with on a large scale.How could such a big move of hands and feet go unnoticed?

However, everyone in the Dazheng Kingdom was preparing for the war, and few people noticed what happened in the corner of the capital.Some officials in the capital were critically ill, and some officials retired and returned home.In the face of the upcoming war, they all seem insignificant, nothing more than a trivial matter!

Jin Yiwei didn't notice anything at first, and now most of their strength has rushed to the border.But later they discovered that although these officials had little official positions, many of them held important positions.Moreover, many of those returning home are actually young.Among these officials who died of illness, even students who graduated from the Academy of Arts were included.

Although this was discovered by Jin Yiwei, everyone was so busy at the time that they didn't think about other things.After that, An Jianqing just randomly sent someone to investigate what was going on, but he didn't expect that the person who sent to investigate the case died silently.Only in this way did An Jianqing pay attention to it, and sent elite troops to thoroughly investigate the matter, but what he found later made him break out in a cold sweat!
In fact, most of these officials who died of illness in Beijing recently did not die of illness, but were murdered to silence them.It is impossible for such a big corruption case to be done silently.As long as you are familiar with the accounts or related officials, you can always detect some clues and even understand the secrets.

And these officials who were aware of this and even secretly investigated it.In addition to being threatened by their design, some people chose to retire and return to their hometowns, while others chose to indulge in sensuality and go along with them.

As for those who would rather die than compromise, they were executed secretly.Among them, An Jianqing also discovered that several officials had found key evidence and had written to Zhao Yuan requesting a thorough investigation of the matter.

But An Jianqing knew that the memorial was not delivered to Zhao Yuan, but was stopped by someone halfway.Otherwise, with Zhao Yuan's temper, he would have pointed at him and scolded him long ago.Jin Yiwei is short of manpower, it is impossible to take care of all aspects.But Zhao Yuan didn't understand these things, he only knew that it was Jin Yiwei's responsibility for not noticing these things.

But until now, An Jianqing has not been blamed, nor has he received an order from Zhao Yuan to investigate the matter thoroughly, which shows that Zhao Yuan did not know about it.It can be seen that the power of this corruption group is really shocking.

With such a behavior, it is conceivable that there should be their people even in the palace, and even An Jianqing once thought of Chen An, the personal supervisor next to Zhao Yuan.In the Taizheng country, I am afraid that this is the only one who can quietly replace the ministers' memorials!
"Moth!" After reading the long memorial handed over by An Jianqing, Zhao Yuan frowned tightly, and then threw the memorial aside viciously.Seeing the inexplicable expression on Zhao Yuan's face, An Jianqing's crouching body became even lower!
"The household department is rotten to the root. No one has reported such a big matter. I still don't know about it. Shangshu Wu Changyuan must definitely be involved in this matter. In addition, I have never seen the minister's letter. It seems that my palace is not safe anymore!"

All materials had to be transported to the front line, and large sums of gold were transported from the inner treasury to be used for money, food and weapons.Even a wealthy person cannot help but be greedy for such a large amount of gold and silver.That's all for embezzling military supplies. I don't know how much of the gold I sent to the national treasury is left!
"Chen, I'm guilty!"

"An Jianqing, I don't want to hear this!" After taking a breath to suppress the anger in his heart, Zhao Yuan then looked at An Jianqing and said, "Tell me, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, this time it's my negligence, Jin Yiwei cannot escape responsibility!" Looking carefully at Zhao Yuan, An Jianqing immediately patted his chest and said, "I will send more elite personnel to investigate this matter as soon as possible, but... this, this In the palace...!"

"I will temporarily transfer Chen An to the Wu Pavilion for a period of time. During this period, you will check carefully for me!" As soon as he slapped the table, Zhao Yuan stood up in a big stride, "If Chen An gets involved in it, I will never tolerate it." .If you don't kill one and respect the hundred, how can you deter this group of moths!"

"Your Majesty, the frame of the Dakang Kingdom is about to enter the border of our country, and the minister should send someone to protect it!"

"No, there are Duan Tianya and their four major secret agents who are accompanying them. It seems that nothing will go wrong. Now all the front-line warfare is the most important thing. All you have to do is to find out the truth of the matter!"

"Yes, the minister obeys the order!"
