Chapter 88 The open gun is easy to hide, and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent

As the saying goes, open guns are easy to avoid and dark arrows.

Mr. Liang knew that even if they tried their best to block He Lijing's side now, as long as they didn't find out the mysterious person who delivered the letter, even if this matter was endless, the whole Liang family would not be safe.

But Liang Qiurong is now afraid of He Lijing's group of people. He is only thinking about how to confuse the things on the other side of the river embankment.

"In case... in case a clue is found by them, and now the prince is in Nayan County again... In addition, the robbery of Guanyin has not been completed... I'm afraid I really can't keep my head..."

Liang Qiurong said this, and his face was extremely pale.

When the eldest son and the second son of the Liang family heard the words, they hurriedly comforted their father. But Mr. Liang was awakened by Liang Qiurong's words.

He suddenly stood up and just showed a trace of joy on his face, but he immediately came down and sat back to his seat. After so many times, Mr. Liang finally became irritable and shook his sleeves and left the hall.

Liang Qiurong and the second son of the eldest son were puzzled by the third son of Liang, but they also knew that Mr. Liang's biological quirks. If he left like this, even nine cows could not be pulled back.

He Lijing lived in Guanyi with a group of officials. Liang Qiurong has invited him many times. He Lijing is a kind word. For him, although they set the goal of the river embankment, this matter has become a trouble for the people in He Lijing's mouth. They will take a formal scene to show the prince. They won't do anything to Liang Qiurong. Impact.

Liang Qiurong is not a fool, and he can still hear this kind of scene in the officialdom. He looked for several opportunities to show his sincerity or mention the content of the letter, but He Lijing seemed to be on guard. Every time he saw Liang Qiurong, there were other people present, which made Liang Qiurong have no chance at all.

Liang Qiurong actually thought that if it really didn't work, he would simply be a submissive little official and give his loyalty and filial piety to the prince, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was inappropriate.

Although He Lijing now looks small, the adult behind him is powerful. Although the prince looks high now, the one behind him is now in danger.

If you make a mistake, there will be no way to turn back in the future.

Liang Qiurong tried his best to restrain his fear. While trying to help the prince do things, he tried to flatter He Lijing. On the other hand, he also took care of the things on the other side of the river embankment.

The people around He Lijing have been sent to the river embankment with great fanfare, and Liang Qiurong has also secretly sent people to prepare in advance.

This competition seems to be a competition between the two sides, but in fact, both sides know that the prince should have sent someone to investigate the matter.

In fact, Du Yilin sent people earlier than those sent by He Lijing and Liang Qiurong.

Zeng Yanliang knows a hundred miles of terrain and river embankment in Yanyan County. He took Jiang Taojun and Lei Liyu to the road at night, and soon saw the river flowing through Quyan County.

The three walked through various villages along the river and made an open and secret visit. In the end, they really found out a lot of things. When the three returned to Liyan County, Lieutenant General reported what he had seen and heard to Du Yilin. Du Yilin, who was always cold-faced, now showed anger on his face.

After Liang Qiurong took office in Yan County, the first thing he did was the river industry business.

The business of the Liang family is handled by the second son of the Liang family. This river worker has money allocated by the court every year, as well as the money issued by the government office, which is a fat job that can no longer be fat. Since Liang Qiurong took office, every year of river engineering has been fully handled by the second son of the Liang family.

If you want to repair the river, you need to use earth and stone wood, which are all purchased by the second son of the Liang family. In addition, it is up to the second son of the Liang family to use manpower, how many craftsmen, how many days of work they work, and how much money they give every day.

He deducted a little here and there, and accumulated a little more, which became the capital of the Liang family.

In order to avoid such a thing, the court had long ordered that relatives of officials be prohibited from undertaking such projects, but this ban was nothing in Yan County.

"The local people said that the river embankment breaks every year, and the people's land is lost every year, but the officials of Yanyan County come to inspect every year and do not allow the local villages to move, let alone to repair the dam without authorization..." Zeng Yanliang has actually heard about these things for a long time. He frowned and said to Du Yilin, "Those After the people's fields were flooded, there was no harvest for a year, so they had to rely on others to make a living..."

Du Yilin asked in a low voice, "Without food, what do they live on?"

Jiang Taojun and Lei Liyu did not dare to talk. In fact, when they went to investigate, they did not ask about it. The two of them turned their heads and looked at Zeng Yanliang.

Zeng Yanliang sighed and said to Du Yilin, "Your Majesty, these things are actually nothing new in Quyan County, but... no one could care about it before, so they were used to it. People who have no harvest will go fishing in the river, eat and sell some. The women in the family are skillful, make some mats, weave some cloth to sell, and do a lot of handicrafts... If the New Year is better, they can still go hunting in Fengquanling, and if they encounter anything big deal..."

"Do you want to go to the market and sell goods?" Du Yilin angrily threw the teacup in his hand on the table and said angrily, "No wonder, at the celebration a few days ago, I wondered why there were so many people coming out to set up stalls in this small Nayan County. I thought it was Antai County, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. I didn't expect that those people were forced to use those things to make a living. ! Fishing and hunting? Listen! It's like a happy day with endless food and clothing!"

Zeng Yanliang was also a little embarrassed to see Du Yilin lose his temper like this. At this time, Jiang Taojun came forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. It's better for the people to find a way to make a living than to be displaced.

Du Yilin stared at him fiercely, "Is it better than displacement? They can fish and hunt, so why do they have to live on the edge of the river? After saying this, Du Yilin suppressed his anger, patted the table and gritted his teeth and said, "Yan County is the same as other counties in Wuming County!" The number of disaster relief funds from the imperial court every year is not counted! And it increases year by year! When you want silver, the words are all set... When the people fish and hunt, where have these silver been spent!"

Zeng Yanliang and the three of them looked at each other and dared not speak any more. They both lowered their heads and waited for Du Yilin to calm down.

Du Yilin sat there and thought to himself that Liang Qiurong looked old and cunning, but he didn't know how to be an official. Now that this happens, he must be the scapegoat. The matter on the river embankment should be the same in Wuming County, but it's just a secret done by other officials.

Du Yilin's mind turned his mind and thought that there was an urgent situation for He Lijing to get rid of Liang Qiurong.

Otherwise, he would never use the river embankment as an excuse.

The river embankment is too easy to implicate others. He Lijing has always been cautious and will not take this risk unless he has to.

What does Liang Qiurong know?

Du Yilin narrowed his eyes and suddenly turned his eyes to Zeng Yanliang.

Zeng Yanliang changed his hair and changed color when he was seen by Du Yilin. He carefully asked, "Your Majesty, do you have anything to tell me?"

Du Yilin shook his head slightly, took a long breath, and waved his hand to Jiang Taojun and Lei Liyu, "You two go down."

Jiang Taojun and Lei Liyu understood that the prince had something to say to Zeng Yanliang alone, so they bowed down and retreated.

Zeng Yanliang stood there alone, even more puzzled.

Du Yilin waved to Zeng Yanliang and asked him to sit down next to him.

Zeng Yanliang hesitated, but seeing that Du Yilin was still angry, he did not dare to disobey, so he had to sit down carefully.

At this time, Du Yilin asked, "Yan Liang, do you have a marriage contract with Miss Leng...? Or... huh?"

Zeng Yanliang never thought that Du Yilin would ask this question. His face turned red and he hurriedly waved his hand, "We... we still... haven't had a marriage contract yet... just... just that..."

When Du Yilin saw him like this, he also guessed what was like. He first sighed, and then sighed, "Cold girl is smart, brave and resourceful, comparable to men... No, she should be better than many men. She was killed at home, but she did not retreat, which is really admirable. It's enough to have such a woman by your side.

Zeng Yanliang suddenly felt that there seemed to be other words in Du Yilin's words. He was shocked and thought that it was the prince who fell in love with Xuanrong?

Du Yilin seemed to find that Zeng Yanliang's face was wrong. He suddenly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled and shook his head, "You two are in love and in common trouble. Maybe they will be a pair of immortals in the future."

Speaking of this, Du Yilin seemed to remember something and asked casually, " By the way, I remember that you once said that you were seriously injured in fighting with those people who robbed the official bank in Fengquanling. Did Miss Leng save you back?"

Zeng Yanliang put down some vigilance and nodded. Zeng Yan's conscience was also relieved to say that the official silver was robbed from the prince. At least the prince hasn't forgotten about this...

"This is a little strange. No one knows about the robbery of this official silver. Why did Leng girl save you back on Fengquanling?"

Du Yilin asked while carefully observing the changes in Zeng Yanliang's expression.

Zeng Yanliang seemed to be recalling what happened at the beginning. In fact, Zeng Yanliang was seriously injured at that time, and then he heard that he had been wronged into a group of robbers. He was full of anxiety and did not think much about why Leng Xuanrong appeared there.

Now that he thinks about it again, he actually forgot how Leng Xuanrong explained this coincidence at the beginning.

There was really nothing he could do. Zeng Yanliang had to tell the truth. Du Yilin also saw that Zeng Yanliang did not lie, so he stopped asking questions.

There was nothing else, and Du Yilin sent out Zeng Yanliang.

As soon as Zeng Yanliang left the room, Du Yilin's face immediately became solemn.

He thought of something, but he couldn't think of why. He doubted something, but he felt too absurd. Countless thoughts hovered in his mind, and the king of Xiaohan was rarely entangled by the ideas in his mind.
