Chapter 114: The show begins
"Miss, Miss, Lang Ji Zhai was actually seized today!"
Jianqiu finally brought Su Rongyi the news she wanted to hear.
It's finally time to begin.
"What do you say about the rumors out there?"
"People outside can't tell clearly, I heard that it is involved in border smuggling, it seems to say that a direct letter from the Yanzhou Transshipment Envoy Department was sent to Jinling, and the movement of the Yacha Fengpu is very big, it seems that it is a big crime, it is really strange, how can it be involved in the smuggling case?"
"...... Yanzhou," Su Rongyi smiled, "It's the upright Lord He who is in charge." β
Xue Wan is indeed naΓ―ve, and the route she gave out will not be investigated properly.
"Miss, do you know anything?" Jianqiu looked at her and felt that Su Rongyi had already prepared.
"Jianqiu, spices and other things, there are countless people who buy them from the border, can you open a spice shop, will you not pick this matter clearly? Since the shop has been sealed and Ming Huanghuang slapped the owner in the face, this matter is more than just a smuggling case. β
Xue Wan's sin will be much heavier than smuggling.
Jianqiu asked, "Do you mean...... Will the Xue family be arraigned? β
"Wait and see," Su Rongyi said, "I'm afraid it's not just the Xue family." β
What does that mean?
Jianqiu watched Su Rongyi go to the book again.
Miss's mind is really becoming more and more unpredictable, but such a thing, she thinks that how can Miss be a boudoir daughter, how can she do it, she must have thought too much.
The next day, there was a girl beside the eldest lady who hurriedly came to invite Su Rongyi.
The eldest lady's girl rarely comes, there must be something.
The person who came looked anxious, and before he could wait long, Mrs. Tai also sent someone over.
Su Rongyi rushed to the upper room, all the female dependents were there, and the cry of a girl was faintly heard in the back hall, which seemed to be Su Rongying's voice.
"Grandmother, aunt, what's the matter?"
The two of them looked at Su Rongyi with a strange expression, as if everyone was counting on her for a moment.
"Sister Yi'er, this is ...... Do you, do you know? β
Su Rongyi was slightly surprised: "The eldest aunt asked strangely, you hurriedly replaced me, and suddenly asked such a sentence without beginning or end, how do I know?" β
The eldest lady sighed, "It's the cooperation between your third aunt and the Xue family, do you know about it?" β
Su Rongyi let out an "oh", "I've heard a few words, where did the eldest aunt say this, don't you know?" β
The eldest lady was a little embarrassed by her question, of course she knew, but she had always only listened and never wanted to meddle in things, and now that something happened, she naturally had to pretend to be stupid. She glanced at Mrs. Tai:
"It's the daughter-in-law who is confused, if she knew about this, she would definitely persuade the third brother and sister to be cautious, and now it won't be like this."
At this time, no one has the time to debunk the hypocrisy of the eldest lady, Mrs. Su sighed, and said to Su Rongyi: "I don't know if you have heard of the seizure of Lang Yu Zhai yesterday, this time they committed a terrible case......
Su Rongyi was surprised, "Smuggling is such a thing, many wealthy families have been planted, maybe the Xue family has not cleaned up, I also know some about the business dealings between the third aunt and Miss Xue Er recently, let's get rid of it here, what does grandmother think?" β
Mrs. Su said: "Look at your third aunt, if you leave her clear, will she still be like this?" β
The third lady sat on the side and wept silently, without saying a word, staring blankly at her feet, judging from her usual stormy appearance.
Apparently the blow was not light.
Speaking of this, Mrs. Su became angry, "If your aunt hadn't come to tell me this morning, my old woman would have been completely kept in the dark by her." β
The eldest lady answered: "I got the news this morning that this case has been rejected by Fu Yin and submitted to the Criminal Department and Dali Temple for review. Sister Yi, you have always been more governor than your sisters, you should know what this means, the case handed over to Dali Temple, which case will be a trivial matter, this time, I can't hold it! β
Su Rongyi's face was also full of horror, "How can this be?" It's so serious, that, that...... What did the eldest uncle and the third uncle say? β
Mrs. Su said, "They went to their colleagues early in the morning to inquire about it. β
The specific situation can only be determined when the two masters return home.
Su Rongyi showed a cautious expression and asked, "For such a big matter, the granddaughter is also the master of the six gods, but grandmother, aunt, what can I do?" β
"Sister Yi'er, you are the person who knows the inside story the most now, your third aunt said that the raw materials for Su Hexiang that were transported before were all brought in by you from the northwest channel, and they were also your private routes and convoys, why did there be such a big thing when it came to Xue Wan's hands?"
Su Rongyi sneered in his heart, the third lady really dared to say that she had the audacity to rob her of her things, and now that something had happened, she knew to push her out first.
There was a frightened expression on her face, "This, this, firstly, the granddaughter was helped by the Rulu Cargo Store at that time, if you want to say how to transport, how to pass the customs of the state capitals, this is all cooked by the shopkeeper Qiu, I don't know very well, secondly, the granddaughter is a timid person, and she never seeks to make big profits, this Su Hexiang has been sold very little, and there has never been a problem, somehow it has been in the hands of others, and it has ...... somehow."
Mrs. Su immediately understood and asked the third wife, "The third family, you are honest, how much have you gone this time?" β
The third lady trembled and clenched her fists tightly.
The eldest lady immediately helped, "Third brother and sister, it's all this time, what else can't be said, you have to explain it carefully and clearly, so that we can judge the severity of this matter, is it possible that you really want to be escorted to Dali Temple by the Yacha to ask you before you are willing to speak." β
The third lady said a number, and even if Mrs. Su didn't know the general affairs anymore, she was almost so angry that she turned her back.
"You, you're really greedy, and the spice business is so good? The first time you started, you dared to spend so much, how much money are you lacking? Our Su family has treated you badly, or what! It's shameless, smuggling, smuggling...... With such a large amount, no wonder the government has to hold the handle, good, you can bear it, why don't you just go to dump and sell smuggled salt, the gold and silver mountains are all at your disposal! β
Mrs. Su felt that this matter was going to be spread, and the reputation of their Su family for a hundred years would also be ruined.
The eldest lady hurriedly served tea to her, "Mother, don't be angry. β
The third wife was very aggrieved in her heart, she was just unwilling to let Xue Wan take advantage of this good opportunity to make a fortune alone, but she could only pick up leaks from other people's nails, although she didn't have a team and no manpower, but she couldn't make a penny less than her, so she suddenly lost her heart to lard, and wanted to make enough money at a time.
Su Rongyi tugged at the corners of his mouth, the pie in the sky is not something that everyone can catch. (To be continued.) )
