Twilight Qing handed over the silver tickets and private seals in his hand to Yue Kill, only took the three account books in his hands, looked at Yuan Xiangguo, and asked, "The numbers are all right, what else does Lord Xiangguo have to question?" Not only this one, but the three years of entry and exit related to the account book of Fengxian, these three account books are all matched, one by one, do you want me to read them all? ”

The distance from Fengxian to Shengjing is almost five or six days, and the day when the magistrate of Fengxian County gave Hu Wenru two silver taels and the day when Hu Wenru went to Xinglong Silver to get silver are exactly five days apart!

There was silence in the hall, and even fools could hear that although the three account books of Fengxian, Xinglong Yinhao, and Shengchang Qianzhuang were read backwards, the days and numbers of the accounts were all matched!

"On May 10, the sixteenth year of Yuanlong, I dedicated 50,000 taels to my teacher Hu Wenru!"

"On February 27 of the sixteenth year of Yuanlong, I will dedicate my teacher Hu Wenru 100,000 taels!"

"On February 20 of the sixteenth year of Yuanlong, the imperial court allocated 250,000 taels of silver to the Northwest Army!"

Twilight Qing snapped and closed the account book, the sound made Baiguan's shoulders tremble, only to see her throw the account book to the moon kill, and then turn over the account book of the Fengxian magistrate, and read it again!

Yuan Xiangguo's eyes narrowed, and a strange light seemed to burst out from the bottom of his eyes, and his face was like the ink and imprints on the account book, black and red were difficult to distinguish.

After reading it, Twilight Qing flipped over the account book, faced the hundred officials, and displayed it left and right, then turned the account book to Yuan Xiangguo, and knocked on the private seal covered on his head, which was bright red in color, and stabbed people's eyes. But Twilight Qing didn't give up, and put the seal of Nahu Mansion privately engraved in her hand and the face on the account book, exactly the same!

"On May 15 of the sixteenth year of Yuanlong, 50,000 taels were issued! On the private seal of the Hu Mansion! ”

"On the third day of the third month of the sixteenth year of Yuanlong, 100,000 taels were issued! On the private seal of the Hu Mansion! ”

Twilight flipped over, flipped to the folded place, and read again!

I saw the word "Xinglong" written on the cover of the account book, Hu Wenru's eyelids jumped, this is the account book of Xinglong Yin!

How can there be an account book again?

Moon Kill took it out of her arms and gave it to her, and the officials were shocked!

After reading it, she stretched out her hand to the moon kill and said, "Ledger!" ”

"On the fifteenth day of May in the sixteenth year of Yuanlong, fifty thousand taels were entered!"

"On the third day of the third month of the sixteenth year of Yuanlong, I will earn 100,000 taels!"

Before Yuan Xiangguo could speak, Twilight Qing reached out and pulled the account book back from Yuan Xiu's hand, flipped through it with a bang, and turned to the folded pages, read!

"Then the number in this account book has exceeded this number, and it is more than eight million taels!" Twilight Qing's words were amazing, this time it was Yuan Xiangguo who looked at it, "If Lord Xiangguo said that Fengxian's account books are fake, then what about this one?" This is the account book taken out with Master Hu's private seal! ”

After the incident, he even sent a letter to the northwest, and sent the official documents reported by the imperial court in the past eight years to 800 li, and he would not be mistaken, 5.87 million taels!

Yuan Xiu said while flipping through the account book: "Five million eight hundred thousand taels." ”

Of course, these processes could not be said, she threw the account book to Yuan Xiu, and asked in the court: "You are the commander of the Northwest Army, and the amount of pension silver allocated by the DPRK and the central government every year will be reported to you, how much is the total?" ”

Therefore, she sent Yue Kill to check all the money villages in the outer city, and the Yue Department was the best at collecting intelligence on the rivers and lakes, and it was easy to find out that there was a mysterious person in Shengchang Qian Zhuang at night, and found out that the person was the housekeeper of Hu Mansion. The hidden guard of the Moon Department took the engraved private seal, disguised himself as the housekeeper of the Hu Mansion, and went to the Qian Zhuang at night to claim that the recent investigation of the case in the DPRK and China was urgent, and he wanted to take back the account book for safekeeping, so the account book was in hand.

This bank cannot be the Xinglong silver number used to launder money, nor can it be the Hengtong silver number that stores the Hufu silver taels, the most likely is the third silver number, and this silver number must be in the outer city. The reason is still the same sentence, the Yuan family wants to start an incident, and the silver is convenient to use in the outer city.

The third speculation is the most convenient way to hide silver, although it seems that it is easy to be investigated once something happens, but in addition to being afraid of being discovered by Yuan Xiu, the Yuan family is not afraid of being discovered by others at all. And if this case is not uncovered by chance, I am afraid that Yuan Xiu will not know about it when the Yuan family has an incident, so why not put the silver in the most convenient place? And from the perspective of reverse thinking, if Yuan Xiu found out about this, his first thought might be that the silver was hidden in a place that no one knew, not the money bank.

The second hypothesis is possible, but packing and transporting the silver out of the bankery is labor-intensive and eye-catching.

The first speculation is not valid, because the Yuan family is going to start an incident in the future, and the silver ticket is effective in the peaceful and prosperous era, and no one recognizes the silver ticket during the war, only the cash silver.

Hu Wenru wanted to hide the silver, and he had three choices: one was to hide the silver ticket in his home, in another courtyard, or bury it elsewhere like the magistrate of Fengxian County; the second is to exchange the silver ticket for silver, build a dungeon or storehouse, and hide the silver in it; The third is to store the silver directly in the silver village.

After getting the wooden box in Fengxian, Twilight Qing guessed that Hu Wenru would save the silver taels in the outer city, because Yuan Xiangguo was old and loved his reputation, even if he was involved in this case, he would not personally touch it, and this pension silver taels were likely to be kept by Hu Wenru, so that even if there was a loss in the future, this matter could be borne by Hu Wenru, and he was "blinded" at most. No matter whether someone believes it or not, he has been the regent of Xiangguo for many years, and no one in the court will dare to expose him, and he is Yuan Xiu's father, as long as there is no evidence, Yuan Xiu will be willing to believe him out of father-son love.

Behind the side curtain, Bu Xihuan looked at Twilight's brows and couldn't help but smile lowly, she must have felt that the officials thought of her stupidly.

Hu Wenru's eyes darkened, Yuan Xiangguo frowned almost imperceptibly, and the hundred officials looked sideways at Du Qing, and saw that Du Qing's brows gradually wrinkled.

Hu Wenru didn't expect Twilight to be able to find out, but what he didn't expect even more was that Twilight Qing was expressionless when he saw his expression: "This thing is obviously not difficult, it's too easy to think of - if you want to hide a corpse, the best way is to hide this corpse in someone else's tomb." In the same way, the best way to hide a sum of silver is to hide it in a bank with piles of silver. ”

But this is exactly what Hu Wenru is brilliant, who would have thought that such an important sum of silver taels would be deposited in a small money bank in the outer city?

In Shengjing City, there are many high-ranking officials and dignitaries who open silver numbers, and there are warehouses in the mansions of the eunuchs, if the silver is sent to the money village for safekeeping, more will choose trustworthy, and the treasurer in the inner city silver number, money village, and pawnshop is not a distant relative of a lady, or a relative of the head of the house, in short, it has a lot to do with the courtier's house, and there is no such relationship, and the eunuch family is not at ease to deposit the money in. The Shengchang money village is in the outer city, and most of the business is the business of the merchants, which is different from the money village in the inner city, so the courtiers have no impression of this money bank.

Shengchang Money Village!

Hu Wenru's face turned black when he saw the private seal of Hu Fu engraved by Du Qing, and then looked at the account book, and the yellowed cover was written with two big characters with old ink - Shengchang!

"I ordered someone to follow the private seal of Hu Mansion at this moment, pretending to be the housekeeper of Hu Mansion to check the accounts of Hengtong Yin, Master Hu is not stupid, Hengtong Silver is where he deposited his family silver, and he didn't save the pension silver taels, but I found out the whereabouts of this silver tael in a small money bank in Shengjing City." After Twilight Qing finished speaking, she sent someone to summon Moon Kill into the lobby, she had too much evidence to bring, and she couldn't stuff it on her body, so she could only let Moon Kill help her carry it, she took out the account book from Moon Kill and shook it in front of Hu Wenru.

Compared to the complexion of the hundred officials, Yuan Xiu's face was also a little strange, and he glanced into Twilight Qing's arms. From the time she began to take evidence, she first took out the account books and letters of Fengxian from her body, and then took out the silver tickets won in those two nights, and now the seal...... How many things are hidden in her arms? What else?

The shape and size of the seal are exactly the same as the private seal on the Hufu silver ticket!

The faces of the court officials who were holding the silver tickets in the palace by Twilight Qing changed, and as soon as a thought was born, they saw Twilight take out a seal from his arms.

Broken!

Private Printing ......

It turns out that the gambling money is fake, and the private seal on these silver tickets is she asking for the real thing?

When she went to Yuchun Lou to gamble money, no one in the court understood her true intentions, although she knew that her intentions must be related to the investigation of the two cases of pension and silver, but after gambling for two nights, even if the children in Beijing won their pants, she couldn't make a fuss about the silver taels she won. After all, the official eunuchs of Shengjing are all big families, many of them have been prosperous for a hundred years, and they have a lot of savings in the house, and the silver lost by the children of the family is only a small amount of a dime, and it cannot be said that these silver are greedy from the pension silver of the Northwest Army, so no one can understand the true meaning of her move these days.

I see!

Baiguan stared at the bright red private seal on the silver ticket, and now his eyes hurt, and his head also hurt.

Twilight Qing shook the stack of silver tickets in front of the hundred officials again, "With the private seal of the Hu Mansion, it is really easy to find out how many silver taels Master Hu has saved in which silver account in Shengjing!" ”

Twilight Qing looked at the look of the hundred officials, her starry eyes were terrifying, and she suddenly flipped the stack of silver tickets, so that the face of the tickets faced the hundred officials, pointed to the two big seals covered on them, and said: "These silver tickets are stored in the Zài Hengtong Silver Number, and there are the big seal of the Hengtong Silver Number and the private seal of the Hu Mansion on them. I think people who have the ability to wash official silver into private money should not be stupid enough to deposit the silver in a silver account. The magistrate of Fengxian County converted the pension silver into silver tickets and deposited them in the Xinglong Silver Account, and it was impossible for Lord Hu to let the silver be left in the Xinglong Silver Number, and it was the right thing to do when he took it out and hid it or deposited it in another silver number. ”

Most of the eunuchs in Shengjing are big families, and more than 10,000 taels of silver is a small amount for any family, who sees it? What does these silver bills have to do with Hu Wenru's embezzlement of the Northwest Army's pension money?

Isn't it more than 10,000 taels?

Hearing this, the officials looked at each other with strange expressions.

Twilight Qing took out the top one and made a mistake, counting that there were more than twenty sheets, "This is what Hu Gongzi lost to me in Yuchun Building, and in two nights, Hu Gongzi lost more than 10,000 taels." ”

That pile of silver tickets made hundreds of officials' eyes hurt, and I don't know how many of them are their own, and what they will be used for.
