Chapter 1090 Past events
With Lin Hao's temperament, he has been greedy for ink and silver for millions of taels in the past six years.
Mutual checks and balances. This is the private way for these officials who form parties for private interests to protect themselves.
Then, in this secret room, there should be letters between Lin Zhizhou and the other party.
The officers and soldiers beat and tapped, and quickly searched the small secret room clean, and there were clerks sorting out various books beside it.
Chu Heng stepped forward and walked slowly around the wall, tapping his fingers on it.
"Lord Chu, the inspection has been completed, but no letter was found." The subordinate came to report.
Chu Heng pondered: "Look again to see if there is a hidden space, don't miss anything."
He himself turned around and returned to the various papers and books he found.
After checking all kinds of ink paintings and books, but found nothing. Suddenly, his eyes focused on a few scattered letter papers. The letter papers were clean without any handwriting.
Chu Heng's mind suddenly popped up a sentence that the other party casually mentioned when he was gossiping with Ye Muyu: "I heard that you can use special paint to write on paper without revealing anything, but you can use a special method to make the handwriting appear."
He also thought about the possibility of such a thing at the time.
Could it be...Chu Heng hooked his lips, and put away any unwritten paper.
He did not confront Lin Hao in his previous life, but he also knew that in a few years, he would return to Beijing and enter the Ministry of Household Affairs, and that floods and droughts in Yuzhou and other places would also break out next year, causing the people to be displaced. Therefore, the Shen family's army was short of rations, and was later framed. He was transferred to the Northern Army to defend against the Beirong, and he only heard about these two things when he trekked across mountains and rivers to the Northland.
The disaster and the turmoil of the Shen family army made the imperial treasury empty, followed by constant troubles, and Luoping Pass was almost breached. Therefore, the Northern Army was even more frugal.
After the incident, Lin Hao controlled the victims, but the governor of the neighboring state capital was dismissed from his official position and sent to prison.
For this reason, Lin Hao made up for his mistakes, rectified the victims and reorganized the fertile land, so he was promoted to Beijing three years later.
At the court, it seemed that the people in the Li people were the reason, but in fact the official who saved Lin Hao was Zheng Guogong Zheng Yao.
Chu Heng pondered, clasping his fingers lightly on the table. The Zheng family is the founding of the country, and now it has been passed on for three generations. The old Zheng Guogong is a veteran of the three dynasties.
If the other party is indeed the person behind Lin Hao, I'm afraid this case can only end with the Lin family ransacking the house.
One piece of criminal evidence is not enough to dismount Zheng Guogong's government, and it is not even painful.
Chu Heng looked indifferent, took the things away, and went to the prison.
The Lin Mansion was seized, and the news quickly spread throughout Yuzhou. When all the mansions were frightened and afraid of being implicated, Tongzhi's mansion was also ransacked.
Zhao family.
Mrs. Zhao hurried back to the mansion. Her cronies were already waiting at the door. After she entered the mansion, she hurriedly lowered her voice and reported: "Madam, Miss is back. Mother Luo is taking care of her in Miss's yard."
"I see." Mrs. Zhao took a deep breath and quickly walked into Zhao Qingqing's yard.
The maids at the door looked serious, and when they saw her, they quickly squatted down to salute.
Mrs. Zhao ordered the others to keep a sufficient distance before pushing the door and walking in.
Inside the house.
Zhao Qingqing was pressed on the bed by Luo's mother and Hongzao, her face was red with sweat.
