Chapter 44 Witty Yunhong looks for evidence Negligently, Wanning is annoyed
The weather was sunny and the wind was smooth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoA few faint clouds, floating in the air at will. Half of the spicy sun in the sky is obscured, and a few lotus flowers in the palace are reflected, which looks quite cool. It's just that the weather is like this, but it still can't stop Wanning's anger.
How could he not be angry, Xiao Yihan didn't understand and didn't say anything, and insisted on saving Jiang Lingyan in the past few days. Originally, it was so easy for Wanning and Jun Hao to make Jiang Lingyan confess her guilt and surrender to the law. But Xiao Yihan just wanted to go against her, and she couldn't sit still in a hurry, and kept shaking the fan in her hand.
This is different from the previous Wanning, who was encountering any difficulties in the past. I won't always be so anxious, and there will always be a way to calm down and think about it. It's just that there are still two days to go, and if Jiang Lingyan is rescued by Xiao Yihan in the middle of the road, then if she wants to take revenge, she has no chance.
Not only that, but it is a good thing that Jun Hao has planned carefully. has all come to naught, who will guarantee that Jiang Lingyan will not make a comeback in the future. You must know that Jiang Lingyan is not a delicate girl, she has the means and ability.
Just as Wan Ning was pacing back and forth, she heard a rumor outside, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had come down. Wan Ning hurriedly threw down the fan and stood up to greet Chu Yunhong. "Aunt Yan, get up!" When Chu Yunhong saw Wanning, he hurriedly helped her up in person.
You know, if it weren't for Wanning. How could Chu Yunhong recognize Chen Xueying as his mother and take the position of the crown prince. Therefore, Chu Yunhong's feelings for Wanning are naturally extraordinary. At that time, Chu Yunhong heard that Wan Ning was in trouble, so he decided to help Wan Ning.
Naturally, Chu Yunhong also has his own reasons. He knew that Wanning had been in the palace for a long time and had been favored by his father. The people in the harem also have a lot of respect for Wanning, if Wanning is enveloped at this time. Then it will not only be beneficial to his future rule, but also win the trust of the people of the old palace.
looked at a few small dishes on the table, as well as a bowl of lotus seed porridge, but they didn't move. Chu Yunhong knew Wanning's difficulty, so he said with a smile: "On such a hot day, my aunt should eat some lotus seed porridge to cool off...... Otherwise, if he is sick because of this, not to mention his father, even Hong'er will feel sorry for his aunt......"
These words sounded very useful, Wanning finally did not recommend Chu Yunhong as the prince in vain. Her original intention was also for her own future. No matter how Donglu develops, Chu Yunhong will be the emperor. Wanning's heart was very clear, and Chu Yunhong naturally understood.
"Then my aunt will open the skylight and say something," Wan Ning sat down, then waved to the maids on the side, asking them to go outside and watch, and said in a low voice, "Now that Jiang Lingyan is under house arrest, she will be sent to Chen Guo soon." Xiao Yihan is thinking of saving her and overturning the case for her......"
A cup of tea is in the room, spreading a faint fragrance. Listening to Wan Ning babbling for a long time, Chu Yunhong had already sorted out a thought in his heart. It's not that I want that ingot of gold, so even if Xiao Yihan wants to overturn the case, there will always be no evidence.
"The Treasury of the Ministry of War, Auntie can see clearly?" Chu Yunhong wanted to know clearly whether the gold was the gold in the treasury. Seeing Wan Ning nodding extremely seriously, Chu Yunhong suddenly realized, and suddenly had an excellent idea in his heart.
Historically, the gold in the treasury, whether it was expenditure or income, was recorded by a special person. If the gold had been stolen from the treasury by Wang Qibo, there would have been no record in the booklet. Just think about it and get that booklet.
The Donglu Imperial Palace is divided into six departments: the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Works, and the Ministry of Officials. The six-part management system is the reform of the imperial court carried out by Emperor Gaozu of the eastern foothills according to the customs of the ancestral court. In fact, the military department is always responsible for the imperial court's captain.
The head of the military department is in charge of the military power in the world, and there is a piece of military talisman in the hands of Lord Taiwei. The other piece of talisman was made for the army in charge of the border gates. However, this side of the army is not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. That's why Xiao Yihan back then would hold the talisman and easily take Kyoto.
Since the imperial court has an army, there will be a lot of expenses. So Emperor Gaozu set up a military treasury to supply the army only. In addition, there is an official position, called the "Treasury Order". Only the emperor's decree was issued, and the edict of the Taiwei was added, and the military expenses were withdrawn from it.
According to this line of thought, Wang Qibo wants to steal it privately. Naturally, it will not go through the hands of the treasury order, Chu Yunhong wants to wait with peace of mind, he himself has to go to the treasury of the Ministry of War. The treasury is located at the Chaoyang Gate in the southwest outside the palace, and is guarded by many soldiers.
Chu Yunhong raised his head and saw the four big characters "Treasury of the Ministry of War" inscribed on the plaque. The two stone lions at the door are quite majestic. He showed the token on his waist, and the soldier greeted him: "Welcome His Royal Highness the Prince-" So Chu Yunhong was very relaxed and entered the gate of the treasury.
Fu Kuling is a chubby man who seems to be very kind. He squinted his small eyes and looked at Chu Yunhong's prince token for a long time before he smiled and said, "It turned out that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming!" Wechen was sluggish...... It's just that I don't know, why did Your Highness come this time? ā
Chu Yunhong held his little hands behind his back and slowly walked to the table. While searching for the documents on the table, he slowly questioned the treasury order: "If someone steals the treasury and silver without permission, how will Lord Yin deal with it?" "Naturally, it was a secret execution." The Treasury Decree is extremely simple.
Secret execution is a very good idea. Chu Yunhong's eyes searched, and he saw a booklet in the upper left corner. With the words "Records of the Treasury of the Ministry of War" written on it, he stretched out his hand and pretended to look at it casually, in fact, he was searching for the whereabouts of the ingot of gold.
Don't look at Chu Yunhong's young age, but he is an extremely careful master. He glanced at the handwriting on the booklet with his eyes, but it was in chronological order, so Chu Yunhong easily found the record of that day. After reading it a few times, there is indeed no name of Wang Qibo.
If Wang Qibo really made a withdrawal, then how could there be no record in the booklet? When he saw this, Chu Yunhong already understood in his heart. He slowly closed the booklet, and then asked the treasurer: "In March, did Wang Shangshu come here?" ā
"I've been here once," the treasurer said firmly, "Wechen remembers very well that it was when the weather was just getting warmer, and he said he had come to withdraw the gold...... It came at night, and Wechen asked him to register, and he said that he was in a hurry, so he left, and he didn't register it-"
That's it, Chu Yunhong's heart was secretly happy. This is Wang Qibo's evidence, he put the booklet on the table, and turned to the treasury and said: "His Royal Highness has found the ingot of gold, which is in Xiao Yihan's hand." Your treasury will have to reconcile the accounts in the future, and you can't miss that money. ā
Use the power of the treasury order to get back the gold in Xiao Yihan's hands. Naturally, there is a rhetoric, and Xiao Yihan will not refuse. And when the time comes, you can use this ingot of gold and this booklet to bring down Wang Qibo. Thinking of this, Chu Yunhong showed a hint of a smile.
After the rain, the sky is clear and clear. It is like a piece of transparent glass, without the slightest impurity. When the wind blows, it is also refreshing and clean. Along Shiziyong Road all the way to the west, there is the Dongyin Palace where Jiang Lingyan is imprisoned.
Since Emperor Gaozu, Dongyin Palace has been used as a cold palace. It is used to contain concubines who have fallen out of favor, but this rule must be followed, and the harem will be extraordinarily calm. Except for Liu Guifei, who entered the cold palace during the current pilgrimage to Emperor Kang, it seems that no one else can be found.
It is probably because the concubines have always been restrained and do not want to be beaten into the Dongyin Palace. Especially that Liu Guifei, in the winter of the second year after living in Dongyin Palace, she died of illness inside. Since then, there have been various rumors, saying that Liu Guifei's soul refused to leave and stayed in Dongyin Palace.
Now Wanning has imprisoned Jiang Lingyan here, but in fact, she is secretly following Jun Hao's holy edict. Jiang Lingyan tried to disrupt the country, and Zhaoyi's identity has been stripped away. Coupled with her arrogance and vicious personality on weekdays, it actually makes sense for her to live in Dongyin Palace.
Otherwise, as Wanning is a maid, how can she be qualified to do this. The weather was sunny that day, so Wanning stopped by to visit Jiang Lingyan in Dongyin Palace. It's better to say it's a visitation than a revenge. Because tomorrow morning, Jiang Lingyan will follow Chen Guo's frame.
If you are halfway down the road and are rescued by Xiao Yihan. So don't you have no chance of revenge? Heng Zhi Wanning has already thought of countermeasures, and started early to avoid long nights and dreams. Dongyin Palace does not see sunlight all year round, so it looks a little cold and damp.
For Wanning, it was also the first time to come here. There are even a lot of wild grass growing around, probably because there is no one living here, and there are no palace people to clean it. Wan Ning lifted her skirt, covered her mouth and nose with a silk handkerchief, and cautiously approached the long-abandoned palace.
As soon as I pushed open the door, a musty smell rushed in. Wan Ning couldn't help coughing, and hurriedly walked into the inner hall. On the cobwebs on the eaves of the corner of the house, a thick layer of dust has accumulated. Wan Ning lowered her head and walked in cautiously.
Looking at it, it was probably Jiang Lingyan who cleaned up. Otherwise, this inner hall looks like it is inhabited. But he saw a man lying on the ground. "Sinner girl Jiang, when you see Aunt Yan, you still don't kneel?" The maid He Jing shouted loudly.
Wan Ning looked left and right twice, and felt that something was wrong. She ordered He Jing to come forward to see, but when He Jing looked, it was a fainted butterfly! Wan Ning also hurried over and patted Die'er's body, and Die'er woke up in a daze.
"Auntie, aunt......" Die'er cried when she saw that it was Wanning and He Jing, "When I brought her food, I was knocked unconscious by a person...... It's Xiao Shouwei, I see it really well, it's not bad at all! Auntie, hurry up and chase after you! ā
The crying butterfly, she was the one who paid attention to collect evidence and suppressed Jiang Lingyan in the first place. Die'er is also a person with a heart, she knew that Jiang Lingyan was not a climate, so she secretly began to help Wanning. Who knew that this time the delivery of food failed, but Xiao Yihan took the opportunity to save Jiang Lingyan!
Hearing Die'er say this, Wanning's face suddenly sank: "He Jing, you take care of Die'er here, I'll go find His Royal Highness the Prince!" At this moment, Wan Ning felt as if it was a bolt from the blue. She tried her best, and Jiang Lingyan, who was easily imprisoned, was rescued by Xiao Yihan.
For today's plan, the only way to find Chu Yunhong and Wang Qibo is to find it. I want them to help and go to Xiao Yihan to verify it as soon as possible. Otherwise, once Jiang Lingyan is rescued, Wanning's hatred will not only be unable to be avenged, but even if Chen Guo can't get the murderer of the princess, he will also send troops to Donglu.
I don't know what Xiao Yihan thinks in his heart, Wan Ning is so angry. I shouldn't have said too many things to Xiao Yihan in the first place. Knowing this, she told Jun Hao to find an opportunity to send Xiao Yihan away. Wanning, Wanning, after all, her heart is too soft.
At dusk, a brilliant glow hung in the sky, turning everything in heaven and earth into gold. In particular, a blue cloud in the middle divides the sky into two halves: half as bright as flames, and half as blue as the sea, with a little white light, like a snow-white shell in the sea.
At this time, Wang Qibo had already sent a lot of soldiers to surround Xiao Mansion. Chu Yunhong also invited the treasury order, and just took the opportunity to get the evidence of the ingot of gold. All of a sudden, the entire street was surrounded by the Imperial Guards. After listening to it for a while, Wanning also came in a sedan chair.
Regarding Xiao Yihan's actions, Wanning was indeed annoyed. With a gloomy face, she went straight to the hall under the guidance of the butler. When the subordinates of the Xiao Mansion saw it, they all hurriedly made tea and served it. Wan Ning didn't pay attention to it, but sat down and said to the housekeeper: "Call your master out, and say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down!" ā
"I'm really sorry, Xiao Ye was already gone at noon," the butler bowed and smiled complimentingly. Hearing the news that Xiao Yihan had left, Wan Ning was immediately furious. She grabbed the butler's shirt and said viciously, "But what if I find out?" ā
Looking at Wanning's angry eyes, the housekeeper's heart was pounding. He knelt on the ground and kept prostrating, and said, "But it is true! After lunch, Xiao Ye carried his luggage and rode west! Not at all ......"
"General Wang, send someone to search for me immediately!" Wan Ning Zhengse said to Wang Qibo, "Don't let go of a corner, even in the secret room in the cracks in the ground, you have to search for me without leaking!" "Yes!" Wang Qibo gave up his hand, and with a wave of his hand, those soldiers rushed to the backyard of Xiao Mansion.
Westside, remember last year. Jun Hao's escape also went to the west, if Xiao Yihan also went to the west, then it must be Jiangcheng. He has led soldiers at the border for many years, and he has always been stationed in Jiangcheng, which is his territory.
If Xiao Yihan wants to run, he must go to Jiangcheng. It's just that if you take Jiang Lingyan with you, it must not be very convenient, and you will definitely rest at the Yuchi family. Thinking of this, Wan Ning glanced at Wang Qibo. The two came to the eaves of the porch to speak, and said in a low voice: "You take a team of soldiers and horses to the west to chase ......."
Watching Wang Qibo take the order and leave, Wanning's heart was temporarily relaxed after all. However, she was still a little worried, Chen Guo would come tomorrow. not only to take away Liang Yuzhen's "corpse", but also the murderer Jiang Lingyan. Wan Ning didn't believe that Xiao Yihan would not want his Yuzhen sister to go away alone!
I said that I would take this opportunity to rescue Yuzhen. According to such a plan, Xiao Yihan will not leave for too long. Otherwise, it would be to live up to his Yuzhen sister-in-law, Wan Ning always believed that Xiao Yihan would come back. At this time, the sunset outside the window slowly sinks in the west.
"Report to my aunt, His Royal Highness the Prince, I didn't find it!" Soon, many soldiers came back to pay their respects. In this way, Xiao Yihan really took Jiang Lingyan away. But fortunately, Wanning has already sent Wang Qibo to pursue it, and there will definitely be news.
At this time, Chu Yunhong pushed the treasury order, and he handed a booklet to Wan Ning. Wan Ning took it in her hand, and then asked the housekeeper: "I don't know the housekeeper, can you recognize this?" Wan Ning took the notebook from the treasury order, handed it to the housekeeper, and explained, "Traditionally, the treasury has a general ledger of silver, expenditure, or income. It's just that now there is a lack of gold in the treasury, and the accounts are not right...... Xiao Yihan is also a guard, and he will be ordered to search today! ā
happened to take Wang Qibo away, otherwise he would have found the booklet, and it would be difficult to deal with him in the future. All we have to do now is find the ingot of gold. The butler was secretly puzzled, but suddenly he heard someone shouting, "Found it, the ingot of gold has been found......
