Profound Pure Guard

Chapter 646: prelude

If the previous Jingxi Operation uncovered the pests in the Ministry of War and indirectly opened the prelude to another war against the barbarians 40 years later in the old Jing Dynasty, then the spirit king Yang Shu accepted the emperor’s “strategy of tightening national money and food”. The exercise of power means that the royal family's "big exam" has officially kicked off.

   Two major dramas were staged together at the same time, this is the first time in the history of the old Jing Dynasty.

   Those who felt the atmosphere and wind direction began to change were those third-ranking officials in the imperial city, followed by the various centers in the imperial city, and then the relevant local systems.

   Everyone has to eat and spend money, right? Regardless of whether it is aloof or flowing in the market, money and grain can't be avoided. This is the same even for those self-proclaimed sects.

   Yang Shu moved very fast. In two days, with the cooperation of the Shangshu Bai Changqing of the Ministry of Households, he refined the strategy of tightening money and food. The austerity plan proposed by Bai Changqing is divided into three stages. Each austerity phase corresponds to the three processes of the southern war situation: smooth, anxious, and declining.

   Even Yang Shu directly boarded the Ministry of War yamen and found Yang Yansi, the left servant of the Ministry of War, and several veteran generals who had idle positions in the Ministry of War. He and Bai Changqing re-refined the strategy to discuss with each other.

   This action shocked many people's jaws. Because how many years have the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households have been in disagreeable and almost opposite positions? Can also do this kind of cross-departmental system discussion?

Surprised to surprise, even if the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War do not deal with each other, with Yang Shu as an intermediary, coupled with the refinement of the money and food strategy, it is indeed necessary for people familiar with the military strategy of the Ministry of War to make corrections, so things seem to make things right. Many people outside could not believe it, and exclaimed that the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of War did not get together, but in fact it was progressing very smoothly.

  Whether it is Zuo Shi Lang Wen Mingju, who is now the head of the Ministry of War, or Bai Changqing, the Shangshu Shangshu of the Ministry of War, at least it seems that Yang Shu's face won't cause any moths.

After careful evaluation, the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War came up with their opinions, and finally it was up to Yang Shu to make a decision to characterize the current state of the Jingji Dynasty as "smoothly partial anxious", that is, a kind of smoothness cannot be talked about, and no anxiety As for the status, it is considered to have taken an intermediate value.

   In fact, the Ministry of War concluded that "the war is going smoothly." In order to make some leeway to deal with possible emergencies, the Ministry of Husbandry was reduced by half.

According to this process, Yang Shu began to patrol various places, and at the same time, the detailed layout of the money and food squeeze strategy in this process was first advertised across the country. All yamen, government-run shops, and warehouses involved in the strategy must not be postponed, and they must be followed immediately. . And Yang Shu will inspect and inspect the hub cities one by one. If the yang and the yin violated, Yang Shu was ready to set up a few babies to show his example.

   Yang Shu left the imperial city on November 21st, and from this day on, the entire imperial city became more and more uneven.

   First, on the night of November 21st, a fire broke out in the Songfu Courtyard in the south of the city. Five large waterwheels came from the Yamen Water Beast Team, and nearly a hundred people came one after another. It took more than half an hour to put out the fire. This is because there happened to be a monk in the water beast team, who was good at the five-element water spells, which strengthened the power of the waterwheel, otherwise the Song family’s big courtyard would be completely burned.

   The cause of the fire was investigated by members of the Water Beast Team, while the Song family arranged manpower to clean up the burnt compound courtyard.

There is nothing to say about this incident, but the strange thing is that even the Song family didn’t take it seriously. When they only thought it was an accident, a member of the Water Beast team who was investigating the cause of the fire was burned down in the Song family’s courtyard. A secret room was found at the foundation of the Caifang, in which a dozen and a half-person huge boxes were dazzlingly placed. But because of the fire, the box was damaged and the contents leaked out. As a result, the water beast team was stunned.

   is actually an animate stone!

  Because there were too many people at the scene, there were local government offices, water beast teams, the Song family’s own family, and even some people living nearby who came to help put out the fire. In addition, when the incident happened suddenly, there were no prominent figures in the Song family. They reacted slowly for a while, and they didn’t cover the mouths of others, and the incident was passed on by someone who said "a lot of phantom stones!" Get out.

  What is the phantom stone? Ordinary people can sometimes come into contact with it, and they have seen it in some workshops or when serving in the city wall, knowing that it is a high-end product used to replace Zhen Qi to promote the magic circle, old and expensive. As expected of the Song family, really rich, there are so many phantom stones, right?

   Honest people look at the excitement, and among the hundreds of people, not only honest people, but more savvy people.

   Therefore, the local yamen and Xuan Qingwei have received the news that there are a lot of prohibited materials hidden in the Song family’s courtyard, and it is difficult to understand.

   If it were a year ago, this kind of family storage of psychic stones would not be in compliance with the rules, but it would not be put on the line. Moreover, it was still a wealthy family like the Song family. The relationship between the family and the energy saving is not small, and it is difficult for someone to easily get through with them. But now...

   At this time, the talents of the Song family reacted and hurriedly came from the big room, but this other courtyard of their own home was unable to enter and was sealed. The person who sealed it was a servant of the Imperial City Yamen, and Xuan Qingwei, who had also arrived, only made a call and left without participating in local affairs.

   "I'm sorry Song Erye, this is now the place where the crime occurred. You can't go in for the time being."

   "The case happened? What case did it happen?"

   It was Song Zhisong, the second master of the Song family, who hurried over. With a stern face, I already felt that something was bad in my heart.

The servant did not bow to the Song family's limelight as he did in the past~lightnovelpub.net~, but looked very hardened, smiling but not smiling: "Naturally it is a case of private possession of prohibited materials. And it looks like the amount currently is. It's huge."

   Without waiting for Song Zhisong to say anything, the servant turned around and left, and told the people below to watch this other courtyard firmly, and no other people were allowed to enter.

  I have a big trouble. Song Zhisong didn't get too entangled and turned his head back to report, but as soon as he returned to the door of the big house, his heart trembled by the scene in front of him. Because a large group of bureaucrats dressed in the attire of the Department of Criminal Affairs had already guarded the door of the big house. They didn't ask when they saw him, they just sent someone to follow.

   On that night, Song Wenqiao, the head of the Song family, and several main members of the Song family were all taken away by people from the Major Cases Department of the Criminal Ministry.

   This kind of news is not simple, it spread all over the imperial city immediately.

   An animate stone itself is strictly controlled for materials, and was listed as a prohibited material during the war. Private individuals are not allowed to hold, sell, or transfer in large quantities. If it violates it, the local government will punish it according to the law. However, it is not a felony if you just possess a large amount of animetic stones.

However, just two days ago, because the first step of the national money and food austerity strategy was announced and advertised across the country, it was mentioned that materials such as animists would also be included in the category of "austerity strategy." All actions that violate the austerity strategy will be Will be increased by the crime in this special period.

   So, the Song family looks a little unlucky.
