Chapter 847: The River Demon Makes Trouble

The auxiliary ministers glanced at each other.

Shi Xie took the initiative to stand up and say his guess.

"Your Majesty, the boat suddenly encountered a strong wind on the water, this is a witchcraft, and the money may be swept away by the river demon."

Shi Xie told his guess and immediately got the nods of the other three.

Because they also have no clue at all, they can only agree with this superstitious statement.

In their time, there were some superstitions, because there was no science, many things could not be explained, and when they encountered things other than their cognition, they would push in the direction of superstition.

After Liu Zheng heard their proposal, he didn't blame them. After all, Liu Zheng also knew that there were still some ghosts and gods in this era.

Not only them, but even the Son of Heaven often believe in ghosts and gods.

What believes in the vision of heaven and earth, and the auspiciousness of heaven and earth, are all superstitious sayings.

They believe it, and they are sure of it.

Liu Zheng naturally will not overturn their statement.

After all, Liu Zheng wants to explain to them clearly, and some of the things in this are quite difficult, and they can't be explained clearly for a while.

And even if Liu Zheng told them, they might not believe it.

However, in Liu Zheng's heart, he didn't believe in the ghosts and gods they said at all.

He knew that there must be a secret in the disappearance of the money.

It's just that he doesn't have enough evidence and clues to refute their claims.

Since there were no clues, Liu Zheng didn't bother with this matter anymore, but just told them to go down and pay close attention for the time being, block the scene of the crime, and temporarily detain all the people involved in the case.

Liu Zheng plans to deal with this matter personally.

Those who dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head, Liu Zheng must give him some colors to take a look at, and find out about this matter.

After a long day's work, he finally had some free time.

got up from the chair, stretched, and asked the eunuch beside him, what time is it, and the little yellow door replied to him, it is almost time to eat.

Liu Zheng nodded, came out of the study, and went straight to the harem.

He has not been back to Jianye for a long time, and he has not yet found time to spend time with his family.

So taking advantage of the fact that he had some time now, he decided to go and have a good meal with his family.

Although these women in his harem usually live in the same courtyard.

But Liu Zheng once set a rule, that is, the family should stay together as much as possible when eating.

This is such a short period of time that can promote communication between them and cultivate and cultivate feelings.

Liu Zheng because the number of concubines in the harem is not large, so they get along quite well.

Some people have been friends before, such as Cai Yao and Zhang Duyu.

Several women still have a lot of topics to talk about with each other, although occasionally they are jealous because of some things, but on the surface it is quite harmonious.

Although they will be divided into several small circles in private, they still admire Liu Zheng very much.

Several women were chattering, but the children in their hands ran over to Liu Zheng happily after seeing Liu Zheng coming.

shouted his father in his mouth.

"Father, father!"

Liu Jiang, who is already five years old, ran out of the house, he already knows some things, although he is only five years old, but he is extremely smart.

Liu Zheng is rarely at home, often fights outside, and does not have much time to accompany him, but this kid, but he has this strange feeling for Liu Zheng, in order to get Liu Zheng's recognition, he began to practice martial arts at a young age.

He also seemed to be more interested in these martial arts practices, and Wei Mu simply let Huang Zhong be his teacher and teach Liu Jiang to practice martial arts.

Liu Shan's age is relatively younger, only three years old, and unlike Liu Jiang, this kid is more timid and likes to snuggle up to his mother Zhang Duyu.

Liu Zheng walked over and hugged one in one hand.

Although in the past two years, Zhang Ning has also become pregnant and gave birth to a daughter to him, but now the daughter is still too young to be separated from Zhang Ning's arms.

Liu Zheng came to the main hall.

Several of the concubines got up and saluted him.

Liu Zheng waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to be polite, and sat down by himself.

"I just listened to you guys talking happily here, what are you talking about?"

Liu Zheng asked them a question, picked up the tableware, and began to eat the delicious food on the table.

Speaking of which, after dealing with government affairs in the morning, he was really a little hungry.

These concubines also understand Liu Zheng's character, and know that Liu Zheng is a person without a fight, although Liu Zheng is here at this moment, the tone of their speech has not changed at all.

"Your Majesty, Sister Duyu said, this time Your Majesty is back, did you bring us sisters back."

"As a result, we all guessed wrong, Your Majesty didn't find us a new sister this time, it's strange."

Cai Yao and Zhang Duyu have a relatively high status in Liu Zheng's heart, so they can joke with Liu Zheng casually.

is also very bold, if this is said by Yuan Rou and Mi Zhen, he will definitely not dare to say it.

Liu Zhengcai sandwiched two mouthfuls of food.

"Wow, you two, you dare to be sarcastic about the widow, see how the widow cleans you two up at night!"

Liu Zheng pretended to be angry and looked at Cai Yao and Zhang Duyu.

Liu Zheng had something to say, Cai Yao and Zhang Duyu both showed a touch of shyness on their faces, and they immediately understood what Liu Zheng meant by tidying up.

"Your Majesty, you are so bad, you always flirt with the concubine, and the concubine ignores you."

Cai Yaojiao sneered. Also pretending to be angry, then picking up the utensils himself and starting to eat.

Seeing this, Liu Zheng also knew that Cai Yao was just joking with him.

"Yao'er, what has your eldest brother Cai Mao been doing lately?"

After teasing them for a few words, Liu Zheng put the topic down to the parents.

"Wasn't he dropped by His Majesty to take charge of naval transport, he has been going to sea lately and rarely comes back, but last time he sent someone to tell me that he would be back in a while."

Cai Yao doesn't have much contact with her eldest brother, after all, now is not the era of telephone and mobile phone communication in later generations, you can contact anytime and anywhere, and the current communication is just a letter and a messenger.

It's more troublesome, so Cai Yao doesn't have much contact with her eldest brother.

When Liu Zheng heard Cai Yao say this, he remembered that a long time ago, he asked Cai Mao to manage the water transportation.

Because of the opening up of the territory of Funan Prefecture, from Funan to Wu County, land transportation is not easy, only sea transportation, it is more convenient, plus when Cai Mao was in Jingzhou before, he was originally the commander of the naval army.

Therefore, it is suitable for him to manage the transportation by sea, mainly because Cai Mao's military talent is not particularly outstanding, so Liu Zheng failed to let him lead the army.
