Chapter 116
"What do you mean by Miss Hua's words?"
Wen Yuming asked in confusion: "Of course the food delivery team went to the Northland, thousands of miles away, so their bodies wouldn't appear on the Chu River, would they?"
After thinking about it, a strong sneer appeared on his face: "If this is the case, then we should worship the river more devoutly. Think about it, everyone, even the corpses in the desert can appear here, which can further explain the resentment of corpses. It’s not out of nowhere.”
"Where did the Resentful Corpse Tribulation come from?"
Hua Rujin felt helpless at Wen Yuming's insensitivity: "These salvaged bodies are all intact, which is beyond what ordinary means can achieve. Whether it was the battle on the Chu River or the missing food delivery husbands 18 years ago, they It is impossible for the dead body to be unscathed, and it will only be corroded by the loess into bones after such a long time."
"Since that's the case, where does Miss Hua think these floating corpses come from?"
Wen Yuming asked with interest.
Hua Rujin looked at Liu Yan with a smile, and pointed out: "You have to ask the admiral, Jiang Fang Xiaowei's mansion was originally patrolling the river, why did he set up the station in the mountains, I'm afraid it's just to cover up? "
"It's a lie."
Liu Yan's face was startled, and he glanced at everyone present calmly:
"I don't need to explain why the Jiangfang garrison is located in the mountains, but when Miss Hua asks, I can give an explanation. In the 36th year of Tianhua, that is, the year when the great grandfather passed away, the whole country was in a catastrophe. There was a landslide on Mount Paektu, I think many of you here are aware of this, the reason why Jiang Fang is stationed here is to better monitor Jiang Fang, and also to repair the mountain road."
These words resonated with many people, and they all echoed:
"It's true. There was a towering Bifeng on the southeast side of Mount Paektu back then, but it collapsed overnight. Fortunately, no damage was caused."
"It does look like there is no loss."
Hua Rujin smiled and said: "And you all think Jiang Fang Xiaowei's mansion has done a good thing for the benefit of the people."
"Naturally."
Liu Yan snorted coldly with disdain: "It is our duty in the officialdom to seek happiness for the people."
"But whether this landslide is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, I'm afraid even the admiral may not know?"
Hua Rujin sneered again.
"What do you mean by that?"
Liu Yan's face was already displeased.
At this time, Hua Rujin turned her eyes to Ye Chengwei, whose face was cloudy and uncertain, and asked meaningfully: "Master Ye has read poetry and books, and he has studied the county chronicles in Jiang'an County these days. It is said that Jiang'an County Small but Minfeng, may I ask Lord Ye, what is the most abundant mineral here?"
Ye Chengwei gradually realized that this girl might have gained something by running away for a few days. Since she was determined to put herself in a dangerous situation, it would be useless to try her best to stop her, but it would make her unhappy.
Now that things have come to this, he also decided to let her put all his eggs in one basket with him, and said with a warm smile: "Everyone knows that Jiang'an County is an important place for the production of ironware in our dynasty, and the most famous iron mine is naturally."
"wrong."
Hua Rujin immediately corrected: "Master Ye only remembers iron mines, but he forgot that coal mining has become popular all over the country since the early days of Taizu. Exploring and mining coal mines, especially in the early years of the dynasty, the salaries of your lords are meager, and I am afraid that even the royal family and nobles want a piece of this emerging profiteering industry."
She roughly remembered that before the Daye Dynasty, the charcoal raw materials used throughout the country were mostly bamboo charcoal and charcoal. It was not until the improvement of coal mining technology that this underground fossil fuel was widely popularized.
Emerging industries will naturally give birth to many profit-seeking groups.
Wen Yuming was very puzzled by her words: "Even if Jiang'an County is rich in coal, what is the connection with these floating corpses on the Chu River?"
"Because the women felt that the missing food delivery men had never been to Beidi, but were deliberately hidden and sent to coal mines dug by someone privately."
Hua Rujin combined all kinds of suspicions before and after, and quickly gathered the information in one place: "Unauthorized excavation of coal mines lacks official qualifications and approval, and there are serious safety hazards. Excessive excavation will definitely cause landslides, and the charcoal wells are near the river. , if the excavation is not done properly, the ore source will leak out and seep into the river water, so the river water on the southeast bank will turn black."
Looking at Liu Yan again, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a faint smile: "Ruo Ruo Minnv guessed right, this Jiangfang garrison is where the private kiln that collapsed back then is located."
"It's just nonsense."
Liu Yan suddenly became angry with embarrassment: "You really like to talk nonsense like what Ye Zhixian said, Jiang Fang Xiaowei's mansion will be an unscrupulous person who will hide the sky for those illegal profiteers."
"My lord admiral doesn't dare, but I can't help myself in the officialdom."
Hua Rujin's smile gradually turned deeper: "If this illegal profiteer has a high position and power, and threatens the admiral, wouldn't the admiral not follow his orders? I think you all know who was in charge of the Jingzhou government 18 years ago. 3000 people dig The mines here make a lot of profit every year."
Wen Yuming felt that she was alluding to him, and scolded displeasedly: "What Miss Hua wants to say, I have been in office for many years, but I have never known that there are people mining coal in Baitou Mountain."
"I think this tricky woman is here to provoke trouble."
Liu Yan immediately yelled angrily: "Come here, take this nasty woman down and put her in prison for trial."
"Wait a minute."
Ye Chengwei finally heard something at this time.
Although he didn't understand the mining of mines, he also knew that coal mining was an underground operation. Once the mine collapsed due to improper operation, it would naturally cause casualties.
This girl really has some skills.
He began to regret his original decision, if he had let this girl join in, he wouldn't have been in vain for many days of fear.
Stopping the approaching sergeant, Ye Chengwei showed a smile on his face: "The admiral is so forgetful. Just now, the officer wanted to stop Miss Hua, but you insisted on asking people to talk about your opinions. Now that she has revealed her suspicions, you want to stop her?" Asking people to blame is not what an official should do."
"Brother Ye."
Liu Yan looked at Ye Chengwei bitterly, but he couldn't understand what he was thinking.
"I would like to ask the admiral to allow her to finish speaking. I think not only the officials present, but also many people want to hear Miss Hua's final opinion on this matter."
Ye Chengwei's half-discussing and half-threatening tone forced Liu Yan to compromise, and glared at Hua Rujin dissatisfiedly: "Please speak."
"Things are already clear."
Hua Rujin finally said: "Someone transferred the farmer who delivered the grain to Mt. Baitou to open a mine. The mine collapsed and an accident happened. I don't think even if there are people alive, the people behind this would not dare to make this shameful deed public. Let everyone bury at the bottom of the mine together,
I thought that the landslide could cover up all the criminal evidence, but I never thought that the bottom of the mine would leak again due to the soaking of the river, and the long-buried corpse flowed into the river to see the light of day again, someone would come up with such a conscienceless reason as resentment and robbery to paralyze the world . "
After the words fell, he looked at Liu Yan with sharp eyes, and asked, "I don't know if what the admiral is saying is true or not?"
