Yu Zizhen waited patiently for another three or four days, and Li Langzhong's second brother finally got the chance and sent some evidence of the missing relief grain case to Li Langzhong.
In order to prevent any further complications, Yu Zizhen sneaked to Doctor Li's house that night after receiving the news and performed a substitution.
With the system as a cheat, she not only slipped in smoothly and changed things, but also scanned all those things into electronic files and backed them up as quickly as possible.
After making the backup, she divided the original into several parts and threw them in front of the homes of the Yang family, the Fan family, and the political enemies of the ministers and vice ministers who had a share of the spoils.
Oh, by the way, she also smuggled some ulterior motives into the evidence, revealing the good news that Minister Han's family had more and more comprehensive evidence without any concealment.
Yes, she didn't plan to steal it herself. As for the reason - that bastard Han Shilang actually moved the evidence to his mother's bedroom.
His mother lives in the backyard of the Han Mansion, so it is not easy to get in.
The most important thing is that his mother is bedridden and someone is always by her side in the bedroom.
Even if Yu Zizhen managed to sneak in with his disguise skills, it would be difficult for him to get the important evidence that her son asked her to keep safely under the nose of the old lady of the Han family.
There are too many variables and risks, and Yu Zizhen is too lazy to waste his brain cells on this matter anymore, so he simply provides clues to others who also want those officials to fall.
Because of her intervention, Doctor Li unknowingly overcame this hurdle that could have ended his career and the lives of his entire family.
He continued to work diligently, completely unaware that the case of missing relief grain, which the bigwigs had recently been discussing heatedly in the court, was actually almost framed on him.
His second brother, who was happily waiting for Doctor Li to get into trouble, and Minister Han, who had already found a scapegoat and was waiting for the case of missing relief grain to end perfectly with Doctor Li being pushed out to take the blame, were completely stunned by the sudden revelation of the case.
Doctor Li's second brother was so angry that he smashed everything in the house and screamed, "Impossible! This is impossible! How is this possible?!"
Minister Han, who suddenly became the target of public criticism, immediately suspected Doctor Li's second brother. He got up early to attend court, and was then directly implicated by many court officials. Those officials who had vested interests in him did not dare to continue covering up for him in the face of the irrefutable evidence.
However, they were not idle either. In order to prevent themselves from suffering the same fate as Minister Han, they resorted to various methods. While forcing and bribing Minister Han to shut up and take the blame, they also used their own skills to seize any possible evidence.
However, the strange thing was that almost every piece of evidence they wanted to destroy was suddenly targeted by the court officials who jointly reported Minister Han as soon as they had the idea.
No one knew that the court officials had gotten the information from the generous Yu Zizhen, so those officials who had ulterior motives directly suspected their former confidants.
After a lot of fighting, probing, and murder, the case of missing relief grain finally came to an abrupt end.
Minister Han and the imperial envoy in charge of disaster relief, Li Langzhong's biological brother, were both dismissed. Other officials who were involved in disaster relief and had evidence of corruption were also punished according to the severity of their crimes. However, other bigwigs who also had a share of the spoils, such as the Minister of Revenue and a relative of the Lu family who was also in the imperial envoy's team, were only charged with a minor crime of negligence because they were one step ahead of the other.
If this crime had not been related to the disappearance of disaster relief grain, there would probably not even be any punishment.
Facing the regretful and unwilling looks of those court officials who wanted to bring them down but failed, the two men, in order to show their sincerity in admitting their guilt, took the initiative to ask to reflect on their mistakes in seclusion and donate their salaries.
The matter came to an end here. The people who died in large numbers due to inadequate disaster relief did not even see the real culprit in the other world.
Even after the people who flocked to the surrounding areas and settled down in their new places, a large number of them still died of hunger and disease every day.
Listening to the information summarized by the system, Yu Zizhen couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Although she was able to use the power of others to get rid of some corrupt officials, she was unable to completely change the officialdom of Da Qi, nor could she help the people get more relief.
They were living a hard life, with relatives and friends dying one after another, but she was too small and powerless to even do the slightest bit to help.
"We still have to train useful people as soon as possible!" Thinking of this, Yu Zizhen took advantage of the fact that no one was in the room and wrote down the names of all the big termites who got the most but had nothing to do in her little black notebook.
A gentleman's revenge is never too late, and so is my humble servant's justice. Just wait, one day she'll make these guys pay double for everything they've eaten.
After rummaging through his own little treasury, Yu Zizhen decided to change his appearance on the next day off and go to Mrs. Liang to get her 30% stake.
Of course, she would not take this money for nothing. Jijiaxiangpu added to her small treasury. In return, she would protect Jijiaxiangpu to the best of her ability in the future.
In addition, she was actually quite optimistic about the girl Ji Yinghui. After getting familiar with the Ji family, she planned to try to pry her over to her side.
What great future can you have by inheriting a small perfume shop? If you have the ability, you should go out and spread your wings to fly.
In addition, she was also thinking about the eldest son of the couple who ran the Zheng family restaurant. He was able to survive on the battlefield, was promoted, and got the opportunity to return to Beijing with the commander-in-chief, which proved that he was also a capable person.
***
The day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Yu Zizhen rode his carriage to the palace as usual. Unfortunately, their small class wouldn't be open until tomorrow.
The morning classes went on as usual, and Yu Zizhen was still working hard to play the role of a rough and rugged warrior lady who was "serious and hardworking enough, but limited by her talent, and it was difficult for her to achieve any great success in her studies."
After class, she was about to follow the eldest prince to have lunch and take a nap, but someone from the harem came to distribute sachets to them.
Wearing sachets during the Dragon Boat Festival is an inherent tradition of the Great Qi Dynasty. Sachets usually contain medicinal herbs and spices to ward off evil spirits and prevent diseases. However, these things are usually prepared by each prefecture themselves, and I have never heard of any being distributed by the palace.
Yu Zizhen was skeptical, so after getting the purse, he immediately asked the system to help scan the medicinal herbs and spices inside.
She suspected that there was something wrong with the sachet she got.
