C5708 Dealing with Corruption

3"I'll do it when I get back."    

    

Cold sweat was dripping down the Governor of Victorious East's forehead.    

    

Lu Yu said: "But business is one thing. This time, at the Two World Mountain, I have learned a lot of things. I have heard that some people treat the resources provided to the Two Realm Mountain every year as oil, and even try to take advantage of it. Have you heard of this matter?"    

    

Upon hearing those words, the Victorious East Governor's entire body was trembling, and a fearful expression appeared on his face.    

    

"This subject... has heard of it."    

    

"Then why don't you go and take care of it?"    

    

The Governor of Victorious East was silent, but he did not remain silent for too long. He kowtowed and said: "I apologize for my incompetence. I have sent people to investigate, but those people seem to have a deep background and seem to be related to the Lu Family royal family, so I do not dare to investigate any further."    

    

Lu Yu snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of? You are the governor appointed by me, and you are in charge of all the military and political affairs in the East. No matter what his background is, I allow you to do whatever you want! I will be the Han Guang Wu for a while, so what if you are the strongest person?"    

    

After he finished speaking, Lu Yu suddenly slammed the table, which was covered with countless documents.    

    

There were a lot of things about greed.    

    

For example, the three thousand thick armors from Xianyang City had become two hundred by the time they arrived at the Two Realm Mountain. Even some of the precious parts had been taken away.    

    

From Xianyang City to the Dual Realm Mountain, these items were escorted by the army. Only a few people had the ability to touch them.    

    

Yesterday, Shen Ying had sent over the results of the initial investigation, and it was shocking how greedy he was.    

    

But the Dual Realm Mountain was used to the hard times, and since the Heavenly Court did not provide them with any support before, the days passed as usual, or else, if this were to be done to the army, it would have caused a mutiny long ago.    

    

"This subject understands!"    

    

Governor Victorious East bowed and got up to leave.    

    

Looking at the back of the Governor of Victorious East, Lu Yu couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Once this person left, the Lu family would probably bleed.    

    

"The Lu Family is still unable to get rid of the habits of the small families in the lower realm, but this blade must fall."    

    

Lu Yu muttered, and in the spacious tent, only his voice could be heard.    

    

...    

    

The Governor of Victorious East moved quickly. Soon, an official in charge of the Ministry of Revenue was involved in the transfer of the matters of the Dual Realm Mountain. He was one of Lu Yu's distant younger brothers.    

    

The family of the Yuan Fang family member begged the Zongzheng Temple, but the Zongzheng Temple, who had always been biased towards the Lu Family, was impartial this time, and did not interfere.    

    

The family was not convinced and were about to enter the palace to seek an audience with Madame Yurou, but they were stopped by their relatives and friends. Everyone could tell that Lu Yu's figure was involved in this matter.    

    

The imperial official who was greedy for resources was pushed into the Xian Yang market and beheaded in public.    

    

According to rumors, the person was crying so hard that he couldn't even stand up on the day of execution. In the end, it was the officials of the Board of Justice who grabbed his collar and dragged him to the execution stage.    

    

Lu Yu's iron-willed actions shocked everyone. Many people knew that the goods being transported to the Dual Realm Mountain were taboo and could not be touched.    

    

After staying at the Two-Realm Mountain for a few more days, Shen Ying sent another message:    

    

"The allied forces of the Kings of the Nether World have invaded the Fourth Realm. The Fourth Realm is now covered in flames of war, and our Great Qin Army has been forced to shrink our forces in the vicinity of the Imperial City. I heard that the various kings are planning to enter the city with King Chujiang to negotiate with Commander Qin. Once Commander Qin doesn't surrender, the allied forces will immediately start massacring the Fourth Imperial City. "
