195. 195: Stealing the books
"No, no, no, you can't say anything."
"I'm the only one who has seen the books, and it's best for me to go."
"We don't know how many soldiers and horses there are in the Governor's Palace, it's too dangerous to sneak in."
Yu Hongchou sighed, "Ying'er, do you really think I don't know!" ”
"What? What do you know? "Wu Ying's breath is stagnant, he shouldn't know.
"You are desperately investigating these days, unlike your character, if it weren't for the emperor putting pressure on you, what would it be." has not broken it, because I am afraid that she will be distracted.
"I can't lose you, so let me go, get the account books as soon as possible, and settle this matter as soon as possible."
Wu Ying could only make concessions, "If you want to go, you must let me follow you, I will wait for you in the alley, whether you steal it or not, you must come back safely." The reason why she is like this is also because she is afraid that he will be too stubborn, and he will not come back if he can't find it, and if he alarms the guards in the house, the consequences will be too bad.
Seeing her so persistent, Wei Hongchou had no choice, but he didn't worry that she was staying alone in the dark alley, and sent two people to follow her before he was relieved to sneak into the governor's mansion.
The black shadow quickly disappeared in the night, and Wu Ying looked at her worriedly, clasping her hands together, hoping for a qiē shun lì.
Inside the study of the Doge's Palace
"Ma'am, why are you here?" Liang Guangkun put down the pen and helped his wife to the chair and sat down, "It's not good for you to rest so late." "Since the birth of their child, her health has become worse and worse, and her blood and qi are not smooth.
Zhang Danping's first half of his life was hard, regardless of his family's opposition, he married Liang Guangkun, who was still a disciple at the time, he was hungry and full, he didn't suffer anything, watching him sit in today's position step by step, and he didn't live up to her affection, he treated her day by day for ten years, and there was nothing romantic outside.
The bitterness and sweetness really verified it in her, "I just finished taking the medicine, and I couldn't sleep because my mouth was too bitter, so I took a walk, and saw that there was still a light in the study, so I came to take a look." ”
Liang Guangkun poured her a cup of hot tea, "If this doctor is not good, we will change another one." ”
"Dr. Zhou's medical skills are already the best in Jiangnan, and the master even said this."
"Madam, you have suffered for me all these years, I remember that you must live a long life, watching the children and grandchildren full of people, you know."
Zhang Danping nodded, his eyes were full of tears, he could be in a high position, and he would not forget her wife who was a wife, all these years of suffering were nothing.
Time seems to have gone back to the past, the kind of life that is satisfying although worrying about firewood, rice, oil and salt all day long.
Suddenly remembering some rumors she had heard outside recently, her heart palpitated, and she didn't believe it, how could the master do such a big rebellious thing.
But those people said it so badly that she couldn't help but ask for it.
"Sir, does money matter to you?"
"What's wrong with you, madam, why did you say such strange things today."
"Sir, you sue me."
Liang Guangkun has been an official for many years, and many times he can see through the other party's thoughts at a glance, not to mention that this person is his wife who has shared the bed with him for 20 years, "Did Mrs. hear some crazy words outside?" ”
Zhang Danping raised her eyes to look at him and said cautiously, "People outside said that you colluded with the merchants, and said you"
Liang Guangkun interrupted her coldly, "Outsiders, how can outsiders believe their words, I am your husband, you believe in outsiders, and you don't believe me?" ”
"No, sir, I'm just"
Liang Guangkun realized that his tone just now was too heavy, but he was really irritable in his heart, and he didn't want to listen to her explanation, "Okay, okay, don't say it anymore, if you are angry, it will not be good, I may have to deal with the matter at hand until late, you go back and rest first." ”
"Okay." Zhang Danping knew that maybe what he said just now made him unhappy, and he stopped sitting for a long time and left.
After seeing his wife leave, Liang Guangkun sat down on the chair and took out the account book, his expression was painful, he had reached this point, his net worth and life were all on it, he didn't want to stop, but it was easier said than done.
sighed helplessly, and then put the account book back into the dark grid, the study is the most dangerous and the safest place, not to mention the secret of the dark grid, no one can take away this account book.
Yu Hongchou, who had been hovering on the roof for a long time, watched Liang Guangkun walk out of the study, and clearly saw where the account books were hidden by him, and sneaked in.
Open the dark grid, sure enough, it was the account book, Yu Hongchou hurriedly picked him up, unusual hearing made him hear the sound of machinery turning in the dark grid, a cold arrow hit the door in front of him, he couldn't dodge, the sharp arrow slashed across his cheek, and a trace of blood oozed out.
Yu Hongchou didn't have time to care about the injury on his face, opened the account book, the contents surprised him, his fingers clenched, and immediately defended it to a close position, and then went out of the house.
It wasn't until she saw the black shadow rushing into her eyes that her heart fell back and stared at him tightly, the tip of her nose was filled with a smell of blood, and her eyes widened in fright, "Where are you hurt?" ”
"Liang Guangkun is cautious, hiding the account book in the dark compartment of the study, after I found it, I opened the secret compartment, I didn't expect that there was still a mechanism hidden in it, just took the account book, and touched the mechanism below, and the arrow shot out, fortunately I hid quickly, just scratched a little skin."
He said the past so lightly, but Ying Ying was still shocked to hear it.
He put the account book in Wu Ying's hand, "I took a cursory look just now, this account book records the amount of bribes Liang Guangkun received and the roster, as well as the silver taels he earned from cooperating with the Cao Gang to sell illicit salt, and I remember every one of them clearly." ”
Sure enough, as she guessed, the most wrong thing Liang Guangkun did in his life was to be too careful, remembering every account so clearly, and the evidence that made him die was kept by himself.
The guard, who had been lying at the door listening to the movement, hurriedly came to report, "My lord, there is movement in the house." ”
"Probably Liang Guangkun found out that the account books were stolen and immediately withdrew."
"Yes"
I don't know if it's because of what his wife said to him tonight, or because of something else, Liang Guangkun was always uneasy in his heart, and after thinking about it, he went to the study, but he was stunned when he came to the study.
The arrow was lying quietly on the ground with blood stains on it, how could anyone escape the sharp arrow in the dark grid, and he was not dead, and the account book was stolen!
"Someone, come on!" Liang Guangkun's angry voice came from the house.
"What's wrong?" The butler rushed to hear the sound.
"You guys guarded it, I don't know if you let the thieves in."
"This ...... The guards were there the whole time, and they didn't notice anyone sneaking in. ”
Liang Guangkun gave him a slap in the face, the account book was stolen, and it was a matter of life, "Hurry up and chase me, the thief was injured by an arrow, and he definitely didn't run far, if you can't catch up, you guys will come and see you." ”
"Yes, yes, the minions immediately asked the guards to search for them."
Who is stealing the account book, what is going on, if someone with a heart sees the account book, then he is really finished!
