As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene fell silent.

This is a serious crime that requires beheading. Now it is no longer a question of whether everyone participates.

After all, the money was handed over directly to them. Even if the money is lost now, they certainly cannot report it directly.

The emperor will not explore whether it was lost or embezzled by them, but will only pursue the real person responsible.

As the official directly responsible for this incident, Shen Fugui will bear the brunt of the incident.

Along the way, I have experienced many things. Shen Fugui also has a general understanding of the dangers in the world, but he is still a newborn calf after all, because he can solve all problems with his own passion.

At this moment, he did not realize the seriousness of the matter.

He frowned and turned to look at Yao Shu: "Mom, this matter is so serious. How about we report it directly to the court and ask the court to send officials from the Ministry of Criminal Justice to handle it."

In his understanding, he is only responsible for resettling the refugees and is not responsible for investigating the case.

As soon as these words came out, even Shen Nanshan couldn't restrain his helplessness.

He turned to look at Shen Fugui and said: "My son, I thought you had become smarter along the way, but I didn't expect you to be even stupider than me. If this matter had not been reported to the court, the emperor would have punished you first. crime."

Shen Nanshan didn't expect this at all. He frowned and retorted softly: "The emperor understands justice well, how can he punish me?"

"This money was given to you, and now you tell the court that it has been lost. Their first reaction is, is it really lost? Every year, many officials can't wait to get disaster relief tasks. Are they really? Just for the common people?" Yao Shu hated the fact that iron cannot become steel.

If Shen Fugui continues to be so stubborn, he will definitely not achieve anything in the officialdom in the future.

Such a person has no ability to deceive others in the officialdom. He will be expelled from the officialdom with just a simple trick.

Yao Shu's words gave Shen Fugui time to calm down. After thinking about the pros and cons, he also got goosebumps.

The hairs on his hair stood on end, and his whole body was sweating coldly.

He looked at Yao Shu almost as if asking for help, and said, "Mom, what should I do now?"

"As of now, I have no better way. We can only find out the insider and catch the person who instigated him to do this. Otherwise, we will naturally not be able to escape suspicion, and this matter will soon be over. Once it reaches the ears of the Emperor, we can say that we will be unable to argue." Yao Shu also felt a severe headache and sat on the chair for a while not knowing what to do.

General Ling was even more angry and pounded the table angrily: "I have gone through many difficulties and dangers along the way, and now I am here but I have to face another one. If I know who the person in this is, I will definitely I won’t let him go easily.”

"Could it be the county magistrate?" Shen Bei said with confusion.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out at present, but we do not have conclusive evidence. By the way, General, can the life experience of the seventh-grade official be found out?" Yao Shu turned to look at General Ling.

The other party slapped his forehead as if he had just remembered this matter, and took out another letter from the table: "If you don't talk about it, I will forget about it. The life experience of the seventh-grade official is also very suspicious, and he secretly has something to do with the Minister of Rites. Collusion. However, the Emperor did not thoroughly investigate this matter, so he must have a rough idea."

Naturally, it is impossible for the emperor to overthrow the Minister of Rites at this time. As long as he does not do too much, it can be tolerated.

Although the Minister of Rites is too arrogant, it has not hindered the emperor's rights so far.

In addition, the emperor also needs him to check and balance other powers in the court, so he can't do anything to him for a while.

However, if this disaster relief matter had anything to do with him, the emperor would naturally not tolerate it.

What I'm afraid of is that the final result not only has nothing to do with them, but also affects me.

"The Minister of Rites has become so arrogant. He has not restrained himself for such a long time. Now he is targeting the refugees. It is really disgusting. Poisonous insects like this should be completely eliminated." Ling The general was extremely angry. He cared about the people and fought on the battlefield all year round. He was always thinking about protecting the health of the people.

Now that he encountered such a thing, he would definitely not be able to tolerate it.

Yao Shu was worried that he would write a letter and report directly to the court on impulse, so she hurriedly said: "General, don't be so anxious, there is still room for recovery. Since they wrote that they had sent the silver coins on their way, it means that this must be the case. It happened in a few days. We have also had rice robbed in the past few days. It is very likely that the other party thought that our rice grain was only one tael, and they did not expect that they found the wrong one by accident. "

"No wonder they knew we were transporting rice grains without any warning. I thought there was someone inside, but it turned out they were lucky." Everyone present suddenly realized.

If there is a mole, things will only become more complicated.

Now that they knew there was no mole, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

General Ling began to investigate the robbery of rice grains, while everyone continued to resettle the refugees.

Seeing that the temporary residence had been set up, the weather suddenly changed and it looked like there was going to be another snowstorm.

Yao Shu was anxious and decided to go to the back mountain to have a look.

She remembered taking a vague look when she came. There was a flat area behind the mountain, but she only needed to cross a mountain peak.

It is indeed a good place to escape the wind and frost. It is surrounded by mountains, which can protect them from the wind and snow, not to mention the severe cold.

This is where there is no place to clear the land to grow crops, and can only provide them with a temporary shelter from the wind and frost. However, the top priority should still be to save their lives. When the next spring comes, they can naturally come back here again if they want.

After this method was proposed, not only did General Ling disagree, but even Shen Nanshan also questioned it.

"Will they really agree if we do this? I'm worried that they won't cooperate with us."

Yao Shu sighed helplessly: "They will definitely not cooperate with us. These people have been instigated, and they will definitely not be willing to move out if they do not receive benefits. However, we still need to conduct an on-site inspection to see if people can live in the back mountain. If so, If so, we will start with women and children and help them move there. The most difficult people here are the young people, so it might not be a bad idea if they can stay at the end."

Everyone present was lost in thought, pondering the feasibility of this matter.
