In Yue Fei's proposal letter, Li Chenghan wrote the word "quasi".

He then handed it to Xiao Guizi, and asked him to find an envelope and seal it, and then send it back on a fast horse.

After that, he ordered the soldier who delivered the letter to withdraw and settle down, and rewarded him with 100 taels of silver.

After all, the soldier had traveled all the way back with the victory report, so he couldn't let him rest before letting him go back on a fast horse.

Even donkeys wouldn't be used like this.

"Your Majesty, the amount of stolen money seized from Prince Nan'an and Jia's cronies has been revealed.

This time, there are more than 70 officials in total, and none of them are good!

In addition, the stolen money seized is as high as more than 5 million taels! Among them, there are more than 200,000 acres of good farmland.

However, as the trend of investigating corruption has intensified, many officials have begun to transfer their embezzled stolen money and good farmland under their names."

After the soldier excitedly thanked Li Chenghan and was led away, Cao Shaoqin rushed in to report to Li Chenghan.

"Appropriate 2 million taels to the Ministry of Military Equipment, 1 million to the East Factory! The remaining 2 million will be directly used by the Ministry of Households!

As for the good farmland, it will be incorporated into the Shadow Secret Guard for operation."

Li Chenghan has become a little numb to the stolen money seized. Although he feels angry, he can still maintain a calm attitude to arrange these stolen money.

However, for a country with corrupt bureaucracy, Li Chenghan was not surprised that officials embezzled so much money from the people.

You can see this from his previous life, the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty.

Those corrupt officials only have their own selfish desires, and have no concept of the country, the people, or even humanity.

When the emperor had no money to fight the war and asked those corrupt officials to borrow one million taels of silver, they were crying poor.

When Li Zicheng entered Kyoto, he extorted more than 70 million taels of silver from them.

And this is not all, nor is it the stolen money embezzled by local officials who are richer than the Beijing officials.

So this shows how hateful these corrupt officials are. For this kind of people, Li Chenghan would not think it was too much no matter how many he killed.

Beijing Prince's Mansion...

"How is this possible! Thirty thousand cavalrymen actually wiped out the thirty thousand iron cavalrymen of the Donghu!"

Beijing Prince's face was gloomy and ugly!

It was as if a breath was stuck in his chest and he couldn't vent it.

He couldn't believe that the Great Wu had such a powerful army, and he didn't want to see that the Great Wu had such a powerful cavalry.

After all, the stronger the court army was, the more deadly it would be for him.

"If this is true, I think that the 30,000 cavalrymen of the Great Wu wiped out the 30,000 cavalrymen of the Donghu by some conspiracy.

And the Donghu will definitely not give up after losing 30,000 cavalrymen!"

"So in my opinion, it won't be long before the Donghu will march south in large numbers.

At that time, the Donghu cavalrymen who marched south would be no less than 100,000.

And even if the Great Wu really had cavalrymen that could defeat the 30,000 cavalrymen of the Donghu, then heWe are absolutely no match for the Donghu 100,000 cavalry."

"In addition to the fact that the border troops have been defeated repeatedly against the Donghu, I think these 30,000 cavalry will inevitably be wiped out in front of the Donghu cavalry.

Even the important towns in Liaodong may collapse in an instant."

"If the war reaches this point, the national strength of the Great Wu will basically suffer a huge loss.

It is possible that the Donghu army will attack the city of Shenjing in one fell swoop!

And you, my prince, will have another reason to start a war at that time."

The subordinate officer in charge of intelligence next to him looked around and analyzed the situation carefully to King Beijing.

After listening to the subordinate officer's analysis, King Beijing's gloomy face became better.

"I think we should do something! ”

After thinking for a while, King Beijing spoke to the officer in charge of intelligence.

"Send the garrison map of the nine borders to Donghu?

By the way, let's investigate which sides these 30,000 cavalry were transferred from.

The more Donghu cavalry know, the faster they will take down the important town of Liaodong?"

The officer asked King Beijing in a tentative tone.

At this moment, they all thought that the cavalry that Dawu used to defeat Donghu was a temporary 30,000 cavalry that was dispatched from various borders.

They didn't know that the 30,000 cavalry that Dawu used to defeat Donghu was something Dawu had never had before.

Otherwise, King Beijing would be afraid of being upset again, and the officials would not dare to analyze the situation between Donghu and Dawu with certainty, and wantonly speak ill of their own country.

"That's right! Send someone to investigate immediately! ”

Prince Beijing agreed with great satisfaction.

At the same time, Rongguo Mansion…

A servant reported that it was known in advance that Lin Ruhai and his daughter had arrived in Shenjing City, and Lin Ruhai was going to the palace to thank the emperor. When Lin Daiyu came here, Jia Mu hurriedly led Jia Zheng, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Jia Zhu, Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu, Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun, and Jia Xichun to the front yard to greet them.

Although Rongguo Mansion now has added a layer of glory to the family of nobles.

But now the Lin family is no longer what it used to be.

So now, Jia Mu's family can't help but respect Lin Daiyu.

If Lin Daiyu knew the plot, she would be in a trance.

After all, when her father was the Imperial Inspector of Salt, she could only get off the sedan chair at the west corner gate when she came to Rongguo Mansion. When she arrived at Rongguo Mansion, only Zhou Rui's family, the manager, led a few maids to greet and lead the way.

When the Xue family came to Rongguo Mansion, Rongguo Mansion had a large group of people going out to greet them, and the Xue family came in from the main gate in a sedan chair.

Now that her father is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, they can come to greet them so enthusiastically.

This is somewhat too powerful.

"Oh my God, is Sister Lin a fairy?"

When Lin Daiyu was carried to the front yard in a transfer sedan chair and stopped, Xueyan came forward to help her out of the sedan chair.

Beside Jia Mu, Jia Baoyu was shocked by the beauty and couldn't help exclaiming at Lin Daiyu's beautiful and pitiful face.

"No rules!"

Jia Zheng's face turned black when he heard Jia Baoyu's outspoken words.

Lin Daiyu had a good impression of Jia Baoyu at first because she thought he was very good-looking. But after hearing Jia Baoyu's abrupt words, her good impression of Jia Baoyu disappeared instantly.

But thinking that this was not her home, Lin Daiyu curled her lips secretly and did not speak.

But this little action of Lin Daiyu was seen by the sharp-eyed Jia Mu and Wang Furen.

Seeing that Lin Daiyu dared to despise her Baoyu so much, Jia Mu, who had a good impression of Lin Daiyu, instantly had a very bad impression of Lin Daiyu.

And Wang Furen was the same.

She didn't like Lin Daiyu's weak appearance.

Now she has a very bad impression of Lin Daiyu.

However, considering that Lin Daiyu is Lin Ruhai's only daughter, Jia Mu and Wang Furen did not show anything.

If Lin Daiyu knew that her grandmother and second aunt hated her because of this, she would not be able to stay for a moment.

It's not like her Lin family has no house in Shenjing City. Although this house is not big, it is better than staying in Rongguo Mansion.

ps: Considering that Yue Fei is a national hero, it is impossible for him to advise the emperor to marry and use the emperor's marriage to exchange for a short-term peace.

So the plot about Yue Fei's advice on marriage in Chapter 39 was removed.

I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused to the big guys!
