Chapter 339
She turned around and told Xiaotuanzi, "Go find a doctor and bandage him up."

"Whoo."

Xiaotuanzi hurried away.

Mu Yunduo said to Ling Dang and Xuan'er again: "Help Shih Lu to lie down, she can wake up whenever she wants! It's troublesome to watch!"

"Yes."

Mu Yunduo continued to sit down to eat, and the servant hurried over to wipe the blood off the ground. He glanced at Mu Yunduo, with a look of admiration on his face.

Fourth master here.

Fourth Master and others started to investigate Ke Jia's case the next day.

Hongshi didn't care about it, and took Gege to travel around Hangzhou every day. Only Siye and Li Wei were seriously investigating, and Mrs. Li and Hongzhou were by their side to help.

Li Wei knows that Hongshi is pretending to be relaxed on the surface, but he must be tossing and turning. If the matter is found out, both Hongshi and Longkodo will be punished. The emperor's letting Hongshi go south this time is obviously giving him a Given the opportunity to reform himself, Hongshi did not see the seriousness of the matter, nor did he see that the emperor had the overall situation in his hands.

Well, if he wants to continue acting, he can just continue watching. After all, the only one who decides the life and death of the third prince is the emperor.

The fourth master didn't care about Hongshi, he had expected that Hongshi would not seriously investigate the case. Ke Jia's confession mentioned that Long Kedo and Hongshi were the upper family, and the fourth master knew it well.

He investigated the case very seriously, not because he wanted to kill Longkodo and Hongshi, but because if the moths were not eliminated, the people would have no peace, and the court would gradually lose popular support.This is the most important.

So he carefully scrutinized every detail, and the serious fourth master looked very attractive.

At the moment, a few people are looking at the dossier of the confession of No. 1 Zhejiang Salt Transport Envoy Si Yun and Fang Dechang involved in the case of Ke Jia. The number of lines is shocking enough.

Both Zhejiang and Jiangsu are near the sea, and there are two major salt fields, Huainan and Huaibei, both within the borders of the two provinces.In the Qing Dynasty, salt could not be bought and sold at will, but was controlled by the government. Salt merchants had to have the permission of the imperial court to buy and sell table salt.

Salt monopoly became one of the government's important fiscal revenues, and the Qing Dynasty's salt profit also accounted for about half of the country's fiscal revenue.Therefore, whether it is effective or not as a national salt industry monopoly system fundamentally determines the stability of this important national fiscal revenue.If someone makes profits from it, causing salt merchants to evade taxes, or increase private sales, the court will lose a lot of money.

Since the sale of table salt is basically a monopoly, the salt merchants are making a lot of money.As the competent authority of salt merchants, the Salt Transport Envoy has become the department with the most oil and water.

If there is any phenomenon of corruption, it will be a big hole, and it is unimaginable how much money will be missed.

Salt transport envoy and Si Yun are both official positions held every three years. Salt transport envoys are from the third rank, and Si Yun is a similar official position as the salt transport envoy's assistant. In Fang Dechang's confession file, the salt merchants and subordinate officials "filially" paid 130 snowflakes of silver in one term, while the annual salary of the salt transport envoy was 100 taels, and that of Si Yuntong was [-] taels. , in the face of the temptation of so much money, it is indeed difficult not to be tempted.

Si Yuntong, who was originally in office for three years, was actually re-elected for a second term. When Li Wei came to investigate, he found clues, just in case he did not investigate him directly. Si Yuntong, who was re-elected by Ke Jia, arrested him.

 Thank you Baby Xia for your support.
