Chapter 150 Chapter 150

An Chuxia successfully got the account book from Yu Li, the leader who was in charge of the warehouse, and severely warned the few people present not to tell anything about their visit to the Changping warehouse today.

If someone dares to talk loosely and reveal the matter, don't blame her for being unkind.

Chen Xiancheng, who was full of food and drink here, thought of something, and with a oops, the teacup he just picked up in his hand fell to the ground and broke into several petals.

Hastily ordered the housekeeper to call his nephew away, Chen Xiancheng was restless because of something in his heart, walking back and forth in the large hall.

It wasn't until the housekeeper sent someone to find Chen Wenchao who was fighting with a beauty and goblin at a famous brothel in Wei County, that Chen Xiancheng stopped and sat back on his chair.

"Second Uncle, I've been kicked out of the yamen, why are you looking for me at this time!" Chen Wenchao's voice was clearly complaining.

Chen Qingshan frowned and looked at his promiscuous, womanizing, listless nephew.

Close your eyes and suppress the anger in your heart, this is not the time to teach him a lesson.

"Wen Chao, do you still remember the batch of grain that was taken away from the warehouse of the county government in the twelfth lunar month last year? Did you leave any traces, such as certificates or something?!"

Without even thinking about it, Chen Wenchao said impatiently: "Is there any certificate, isn't it the leader Yu who looks after the warehouse, saying that he won't let us pull the grain without signing.

I just wrote down my name on the account book he brought, and nothing else! "

"Confused! Is the name so easy to sign? This is going to be a big trouble."

He shouldn't have allowed his nephew to do this in the first place. Apart from being concerned about gambling with women, he never thought of anything else.

Now I just hope that those clever female county magistrates didn't find out about Chang Pingcang.

Chen Xiancheng was not in the mood to blame his useless nephew now, he took the butler into the study.

Chen Wenchao saw his second uncle calling him, and without saying a word, he left himself alone and turned away angrily.

Not long after, five or six of Chen Xiancheng's cronies were also called to the house by him, including Master Gou, that fat official Niu Fei who used to be there.

The people sitting here were all beneficiaries of the reselling of official food. After hearing Chen Xiancheng's talk about the warehouse, Mr. Gou's narrow eyes, which were not big at all, flashed a sinister look.

Said negatively: "Then set a fire and burn them all.

In this way, not only will no one find out about the Changping granary, but even the tax and grain paid this year will be reduced to ashes.

Let's see what our female county magistrate, who has just taken office, uses to make business with the prefecture and the court. "

"But if this is the case, I will also be punished jointly."

Master Gou grinned, "My lord, how can I blame you for this!
It's not that you are sick and bedridden, and the famous doctors in Wei County are helpless for a while, so you can manage so much.

Even if you have a little bit of responsibility, isn't that adult from Fucheng helping you, old man? "

"Why did you curse me to have..."

Speaking of this, Chen Xiancheng, who was still angry, suddenly laughed out loud, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I am sick, and it is a serious illness..."

Seeing that Chen Xiancheng had figured it out, Mr. Gou was faintly smug, and only he was so smart and wise to come up with such a good way to deal with that female county magistrate.

After An Chuxia returned home, she saw in the warehouse ledger that Chen Wenchao had signed on the fifth, sixth, and eighth day of the twelfth lunar month last year and took people away in several batches to take away Changping's grain, each time with his signature.

I heard from the official Yu that in the past, Chen Xiancheng would secretly steal and sell Changping grain, but he never emptied the entire warehouse like last year.

An Chuxia thought that Chen Xiancheng would dare to do this because he had been left alone for a long time and became more and more courageous.

An Chuxia put away the real account book, and then forged a warehouse account book for Yu Li to take back. She guessed that the fake account book would be lost soon.

As expected, An Chuxia led a few groups of people and successfully collected the taxes of more than 20 villages. That night, An Chuxia was dealing with matters in the study.

Zuo Wang knocked on the door and came in to report, "My lord, news came from Yu Li that not only the account book of the warehouse was lost, but also someone was found outside the wall of the warehouse of the county government in the past two days.

Hearing this, An Chuxia suddenly stood up from the stool, and hurriedly said, "You and Zixi go separately, and Wei Butou and Zhu Tiehua will find you."

"Yes! Your lord!"

Zuo Wang didn't know why An Chuxia called them so late, but he knew something must have happened
After Zuo Wang left, An Chuxia remembered that Chen Xiancheng suddenly sent someone to the yamen to ask for sick leave a few days ago. At that time, she suspected that there was a fraud in her heart, and it turned out that she had called the attention to the granary.

The slender fingers tapped lightly on the desk, and the rhythmic knocks made her slowly calm down and smooth things out, and she also thought of countermeasures.

Most of the yamen servants in Weixian County are soap servants who have been passed down for generations, and naturally they live not far from the county yamen.

Not long after, Wei Yuncheng and Zhu Tiehua were taken to the place where the county magistrate of Houya lives. They entered the study and saluted, and said, "Your Excellency, you are looking for a humble job. What is the matter?"

An Chuxia didn't put on airs much except in the courtroom. She pointed to the chair in the study, "Sit down and talk!"

After the two bowed their hands to An Chuxia again, they walked over and sat upright on the chairs.

Wei Yuncheng, a burly and tough-looking Wei Yuncheng, looked at the young female county magistrate in front of him and couldn't help admiring him. Since she came to Wei County, Chen Xiancheng, who is hypocritical, greedy for money, and domineering, has restrained a lot.

When they were patrolling the streets, they felt that the atmosphere on the streets was more relaxed than before.

An Chuxia thought about it for a while and asked, "You know the three inspectors in Wei County, who are more upright and not in the same company as Chen Xiancheng."

After hearing what An Chuxia had just finished speaking, Zhu Tiehua blurted out, "That's Uncle Du Lengshuang."

An Chuxia looked at them in puzzlement and waited for clarification.

Wei Yuncheng looked at Zhu Tiehua who was in a hurry and couldn't explain clearly, so he opened his mouth to help this tomboy who followed him since childhood and jumped up and down like a boy.

"I don't know, my lord, Chen Xiancheng and Du Yuzuo's uncles, since they were young, they seem to have disagreed with each other because of something.

Later, Chen Qingshan relied on his daughter to become the magistrate of the county, and took advantage of his position to resign Du Xunjian's elder brother and niece who were working in the yamen, and the grievances between the two deepened. "

"Then how is his character?"

Wei Yuncheng said in a fair tone: "I'm humble, so far I haven't heard of Du Inspector, and I have done anything out of the ordinary, but I don't obey Chen Xiancheng's transfer."

An Chuxia looked at them and asked, "Who knows where Du Wuzuo and her uncle's house are, please invite them here for me."

The two shook their heads at the same time. They knew about Wei Butou and Zhu Tiehua's house because they had to be in constant contact with each other for work, and knowing where the other party lived was the most basic requirement.

"…I know!"

When Zhu Tiehua took An Zixi to go out, An Chuxia confessed: "It means that I have something to ask them, there is no need to say anything else."
