Zhu Hui was cunning and looked calm and composed in the face of Chen Xi's step by step: "You are too worried. There are few problems with the dispatch of money and grain in the northwest. Even if there are occasional military forces who do evil in the army to fill their pockets, the accounts are under your hands and the following generals sign and receive documents. In the end, it is their own business. Even if they have to pursue the investigation, they will still be investigated and the board will not fall into you."

Chen Xi shook his head: "Is what the master said too simple? The soldiers did not receive the full military pay, and the Three-Border Great Wall has not been restored for two years. The responsibility lies with the middle and lower-level generals?"

Zhu Hui coughed twice, but didn't turn around for a moment, muttering to himself: "What is Shen Zhihou doing? He was respectful to me before, why did he come to blame me just one day after I came back? Did he know that the court was going to hold the Northwest to investigate the deficit of money and grain, and wanted to put all the blame on me?"

Zhu Hui was puzzled and said in a shirkable tone: "Zhihou, what should we discuss about this matter? The day before yesterday and yesterday's journey was exhausted. I have not recovered until now and need a rest. If things are not urgent, you go back first. Can we make a long-term plan for the money and food issue?"

Chen Xi stood up without any effort, "Since the Duke said that, I will say goodbye. However, when the Duke recovers, I will visit again. This matter must be discussed!

Zhu Hui's face looked ugly. The polite young governor suddenly turned into a jackal that bit him tightly, and he was a little uncomfortable for a moment.

After Chen Xi left, Zhu Hui didn't come back to his senses for a long time and muttered to himself: "What exactly does Shen Zhihou want to do? This is almost different from his previous obedient attitude!"

"Master, Lord Shen sent people to guard outside the mansion, saying that he wanted to prevent someone from being unfavorable to you, look..." Just when Zhu Hui was restless, the master hurried in and reported, which made Zhu Hui even more restless.

Zhu Hui thought for a long time and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Oh, it's broken, Shen Zhihou's true form is revealed. Could it be that he had acted in front of me before, and now he knows that the court is going to pursue the financial deficit in the northwest, and he knows that I dare not take the risk of leaving Yulin Cangcheng, and feels that there is no need to hide it, so he just to tear his face apart?"

The master was a little confused: "Master, hasn't Lord Shen always respect you? I'm afraid that this sudden turn against you is also forced by the situation!"

Zhu Hui seemed a little angry: "This kid always looked like an ignorant. Now he saw that the opportunity was wrong and immediately changed his face. Unfortunately, I was confused by his mask before. Now I was in trouble. I couldn't get out of the Yulin Cangcheng and could not go back to the capital. I was trapped by him, waiting to be liquidated step by step?"

The master seemed very serious and reminded: "Mr. Master Shen, the main reason why Lord Shen changed his face is probably the court that he has to pursue the deficit of money and grain in the northwest... From the time point of view, the main node is that Lord Shen received a document from the court yesterday afternoon, afraid of becoming a scapegoat, so he wanted the master to take the main responsibility, right? With the reputation and connections in the court, it should not be difficult to deal with this problem!"

“What’s not difficult?”

Zhu Hui said angrily: "When the Emperor was alive, he treated me very well. He would ask me for advice when he was involved in the northwest. But now that the new emperor ascended the throne, the situation is very different from the past. First, he sent Shen Zhihou to the northwest to take over my position... Shen Zhihou was only a month old. I thought he was a docile dog, but who thought he was a wolf, and he was an ungrateful wolf. I had no choice but to trust him so much before."

The master asked, "Master, then...what should I do?"

Zhu Hui sneered: "If he is not kind, don't blame me for being unrighteous. How can I fall into the hands of a yellow-haired child who is still not dry? Say hello to someone who has taken benefits from me or given gifts to me. If there is a problem with me, they will not end up well. As long as I am united, I don't believe that Shen Zhihou can play any tricks."

"Snap time to investigate who the imperial envoy appointed by the court to check the money and grain accounts. First, give the gifts and give as much money as possible... This time, most of the matter was done by Liu Jin. These eunuchs like to make money the most. As long as the money is given, all the problems will be solved. If there are people from the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei among the people, I will deal with them in person."

"Hmph, it's time for Shen Zhihou to know my background in the northwest."

...

...

Chen Xi attacked, and Zhu Hui was also prepared to deal with it. For a moment, the atmosphere in Yulin Weicheng was very tense.

After hearing that Zhu Hui's mansion on Chenxi had a bad time and parted, the military supervisor Gu Dayong hurried to talk about his thoughts.

Gu Dayong went to the northwest to supervise the military three times, and it can be said that he is already very familiar with the officialdom here. He persuaded him as a person who has experienced it:

"Mr. Shen, the officialdom in the northwest is not as good as the capital. There are rules in the capital, but many rules here cannot be implemented. It involves the problem of greed for money and grain. When the emperor was alive, he basically turned a blind eye. The Governor's Office, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue would never go into it."

Chen Xi was reviewing the official documents in the lobby. Hearing this, he raised his head, looked at Gu Dayong, and asked in confusion: "Eunuch Gu, have you advised the wrong person? Now the court is going to investigate the deficit of money and grain in the northwest, not the official, who is the real victim. Fortunately, Duke Baoguo has not left Yansui, and if he leaves, many things will be unclear."

Gu Dayong said: "Sir, please rest assured. Even if the court wants to investigate, it will be thunderous and rainy. If the border stability is involved, there will be no result and it will be left unresolved in the end. You must not be a bad person with the government's bus."

Chen Xidao: "I know the kindness of Eunuch Gu, I can only say that I can do my best to do my best to be able to do my best to be loyal to heaven... It is naturally the best to avoid the evil of the public transportation with the State of Protecting the State, but if the court pursues the matter, I can only investigate the real murderer in order to protect myself. Please forgive me for not being able to help Eunuch Gu. Please come back."

Gu Dayong muttered to himself, I am reminding you, why did you help me?

Since Chen Xi issued an order to expel guests, Gu Dayong could only leave with concern. He was not afraid that Chen Xi would be retaliated by Zhu Hui, but was worried that his interests would be damaged.

...

...

Zhu Hui contacted his former subordinates everywhere and asked them to keep silent. It would be better to put the blame on Chen Xi, the current governor of the three sides, so that everyone can escape from the crime.

Yun Liu informed Chen Xi of Zhu Hui's movements, and Chen Xi laughed in silence: "If Zhu Hui thought the matter would be the same as he expected, it would be a big mistake. No matter whether it is me or him who bear the main responsibility in the end, the account deficit will be there, and none of these civil and military officials will escape."

Yunliu asked, "Sir, do you have to argue with the local officials on the three sides to the end?"

Chen Xi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is a common situation in the Ming army. How can I make a calculating method? This is the general environment. If I come to me, I will make changes. Others think that I am unique and will only treat me as an enemy and share the same hatred of the enemy. They have never thought that these unspoken rules are actually not in line with the laws of the court."

"Now, what I can do is to roughly investigate the deficit of money and grain in the northwest, and give an explanation to the court to prevent Liu Jin and other powerful officials from targeting me based on this. Then I will issue a document to explain to the local officials that as long as I can report the amount of money and grain I have occupied truthfully, when the imperial envoy arrives at the three sides, I will excuse them..."

Yun Liu was a little troubled: "Sir, this matter is probably not so easy to do. How could local civil and military officials easily surrender and spit out the things they had eaten in their stomachs?"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "What can they do other than that? Do you pretend to be ignorant? The account is not up to par. If you check it out, you will have to do something to save it. If no one is willing to follow it, don't say that I won't protect them after the incident. Now it depends on who is smart and willing to lose money and avoid disaster!"

"Now these people may be the same as Zhu Hui. When the imperial envoy arrives, the disaster will be right in front of them, and their mentality will change."

Yun Liu bowed: "As the emperor ordered, the official document was written and posted at the four gates of Yulin Cangcheng."

Chen Xi shook his head: "Even if this kind of official document is to be conveyed, it cannot be carried out in public. You must always leave some face for local officials... In this way, I will hold a banquet at the Governor's Office to entertain these subordinates. When I arrived, they had the friendship of the landlords. Now it's my turn to invite them back."

...

...

As soon as Chen Xi sent an invitation, all the civil and military officials in the city could not sit still.

Zhu Hui's order has been passed on, so he is not allowed to compromise with Chen Xi, nor can he tell the corruption. Chen Xi is also a bad person, which makes people embarrassed.

The title of Chenxi banquet was a summary before the New Year.

The Governor's Office set up more than ten banquets, and the officials who were ranked first in Yulin Guard received invitations. Whoever comes will not come depends on whether these people are "conscious".

The banquet time is set on the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, and it is only a few days before the New Year.

The civil and military officials were in great distress and felt that they could not live this life.

The imperial envoy will arrive in Yansui Town at the beginning of the year. At this time, the three-sided governor's garrison Yulin Acropolis was covered with heavy snow, and the transportation was inconvenient. There was not much information from the capital, and most of the limited information was collected in the hands of the governor Shen Xi, who could not judge the situation and was worried every day.

Chen Xi also sent a invitation to Zhu Hui, and also came to deliver the posts in person, deliberately letting everyone in the entire Yulin Cang City know about it.
