Chapter 407(2/2)
"Thank you, Sir." Chen Shilang introduced Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang as the current head of the library.
Zhan Zhao told him the directory he was looking for, and Mr. Xie took the two of them to the library to look for it.
When I walked into the warehouse, I found that it was very new. Unlike Longtuge, the files here were all packed in boxes. One small box and one small box were placed and collected according to time.
After searching around, Mr. Xie came to a bookshelf, looked at the empty shelf, and said, "It has been taken away."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were not too disappointed. They were used to it and were mentally prepared. Before they came, they estimated that they would not be able to get it. Fortunately, it was only taken away. They were lucky that the warehouse was not burned down.
"I'll check for you who took it." Mr. Xie took them to a small study room outside the library.
An old master was sorting out the papers. After hearing Mr. Xie whisper a few words, he took out the files and rummaged through them.
Finally he seemed to have found it, so he said, "Three months ago, he was taken away by people from the Ministry of Civil Affairs."
Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at Chen Shilang - someone from your official department took it away?
Chen Shilang was also very surprised and asked, "Who took it away?"
"It was registered with the Ministry of Personnel." The old man said, "Because this is originally the file of the Ministry of Personnel, so there is no need for official documents to be taken away by the Ministry of Personnel."
"Then do you still remember who took the file?" Zhan Zhao was also very anxious.
The old man nodded, "The original manager, Mr. Wang."
"Wang Daquan?" Chen Shilang asked.
The old man nodded.
Mr. Xie also said, "Wang Zhizhang came here once before. It was quite sudden. He said these papers were for the newly arrived Minister of Civil Affairs to read. But he took away a lot at that time."
The old man also nodded, "They were all returned later, maybe one box was missing."
Bai Yutang reminded Zhan Zhao in a low voice, "Can I ask the household department if those accounts are there?"
Zhan Zhao thought it was reasonable, so he asked Mr. Xie if he could find out the accounts of the Ministry of Accounts.
Everyone shook their heads and said that the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue are all collected in the Ministry of Revenue, the Official Report Court is directly under the Ministry of Personnel, and the library collects files related to the appointment and removal of officials.
Zhan Zhao scratched his head - it's so annoying...can't they all be placed in Longtu Pavilion? They are all books anyway!
Bai Yutang pulled him out first. Zhan Zhao was not dizzy at the moment. He pointed to the east and said, "The household department is over there! Taibai Juzheng is across the street to the east."
Bai Yutang was also dumbfounded. His cat was based on Taibai Ju...
The two rushed to the household department. As soon as they arrived at the door of Taibai Residence, they heard chaos in front of them across the street.
There was the sound of gongs being beaten, and someone was heard shouting, "Fire!"
Zhan Zhao covered his head - sure enough!
The two of them went up to the room together, and when they looked into the distance, they saw a house in the Hubu compound burning with raging fire. The surrounding area was a mess of porridge, and the Imperial City Army was coming with water dragon teams from both sides to extinguish the fire.
Zhan Zhao sighed, and Bai Yutang patted him, "It means we are checking in the right direction."
"It's just troublesome if you're right." Zhan Zhao whispered to Bai Yutang, "Why bother destroying the accounts and directories?"
Bai Yutang looked at him.
"And he acted so quickly!" Zhan Zhao said, "The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Affairs set fire to it just when they said it should? Most people can't get in. If the sky is burning in broad daylight, it must be the work of insiders!"
"There may also be an insider involved in the murder of the officials." Bai Yutang also agreed.
"That is to say, there are people in the three provinces and six departments. The person who said he was involved in the case must be a big shot." Zhan Zhao followed the example of the fourth son and held his face. He found that he had no cheeks to hold it, so he took a few breaths and cheered.
He cupped his cheeks, blew air, and said to Bai Yutang, "There are not many high-ranking officials left in the court. I don't know who will be arrested this time. Jiang Zi will not be able to gain a foothold in Kaifeng!"
The Fifth Master pressed his hand and deflated Zhan Zhao, who was as bulging as a pufferfish, "Isn't this what Zhao Zhen asked to investigate! If the old ones don't go, the new ones won't come."
