Thinking that I was going to Jingzhao Mansion in the afternoon, there would be nothing to do, just wait for a while, and there would be nothing to do anyway.

"I'll go upstairs and wait for him, and when he comes, just ask him to come upstairs and see me."

Yue Zhanyan said in two sentences, and the guy nodded and said, "Okay, madam, you sit upstairs, and the shopkeeper is here to ask him to see you." ”

Yue Zhanyan nodded, and took Lincui and them upstairs, the upstairs was still the same as before, and the furnishings had not changed.

The first floor is some ordinary rouge gouache, and the second floor is a place to meet guests, and there are several good rouge gouaches placed on it.

Yue Zhanyan directly entered the guest room, sat on a chair, and suddenly, saw something on the table that he had never seen.

She walked towards the table over there, it was a white square wooden box, not like Lu Wenkang's things.

She picked up the box, there was a lock on it, and strangely, the lock didn't lock the box, she easily opened the box, only to see that there were more than a dozen rouge formulas inside.

Among them, there are several kinds of rouge sold in the rouge shop opposite, and Yue Zhanyan suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if she had caught something.

Cover the box, put it back in its place, and turn around and walk towards the place where it was.

"Sorry for your face."

"Ma'am."

Xiyan walked over and stood aside respectfully, Yue Zhanyan said: "You go to the workshop, check the production process of rouge, and whether they get the complete formula." ”

Yue Zhanyan ordered to go down, Xiyan didn't ask much, and left directly, not long after she left, the shopkeeper came.

Hearing that Yue Zhanyan was waiting for him upstairs, the shopkeeper sighed in his heart, he was exhausted in the past two days, and forgot to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find her for a while.

But he still went upstairs quickly, and saw Yue Zhanyan sitting in the guest room drinking tea, and he looked at the table facing the door in shock.

Seeing that the white wooden box was still there, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then walked into the room respectfully, saluted to the moon, and said, "Madam." ”

"The shopkeeper is here, the shopkeeper has been very busy in the past two days?"

He was so busy that he didn't even have time to see her, and he didn't make any progress when it came to investigating the leak of the formula, so what was he busy with these days.

The shopkeeper wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead and said: "Madam, the little one has been in the manufacturing workshop for the past two days, or just now the guy went to look for the little one, and the little one knew that Madame, you were here." ”

"Oh, so the shopkeeper has been checking the formula for the past two days, it's really hard for the shopkeeper, I don't know if there is any progress?"

Yue Zhanyan originally planned to wait for Xing'er to finish arraignment today and then come to check the problem with the formula, but now, she has an unexpected gain.

This shopkeeper, she was originally very trusting, but now, she feels that the shopkeeper has betrayed her trust.

"Not yet, not yet, however, there are already two suspicious candidates, and the small one is trying to find a way to lure the two out."

"Then I don't know what the shopkeeper's method is, why are those two people suspicious? What are they mainly responsible for? Oh, by the way, who is the recipe for? Shopkeeper, you can start from this aspect. ”

Yue Zhanyan asked several questions in a row, and the shopkeeper was embarrassed again and again, he just said it casually, but he didn't expect that he would throw so many questions when he thought that his wife was a fool.

"He, they ......"

"What are you nervous about, shopkeeper, I'm just asking casually, oh, by the way, if those two people really have a problem, you have to tell me as soon as possible, and then report to the official, you know?"

Seeing that he was so nervous, Yue Zhanyan's original suspicion became a little firmer, this recipe was either leaked by someone else, or the shopkeeper's guard stole it.

But she still knows very well the person who is the shopkeeper, even if he has little contact, but he is not the kind of person who sells his lord for glory, so what is the reason for him to be like this.

The reason why he hasn't been exposed now is because she wants him to confess himself, and she also wants to find out why he did it.

The shopkeeper nodded again and again: "Please rest assured, Madame, once there is news, I will definitely tell Madame immediately." ”

At this time, Xiyan also came back soon, although the manufacturing workshop was not on the side of the rouge shop, but Xiyan's light work back and forth, it was also very fast.

"By the way, in the afternoon, the person who spread rumors about the rouge shop will be arraigned, if the shopkeeper has time, he might as well go and have a look, it's not early, let's go eat something, and then go to the mansion."

The latter sentence was said to Lincui and them, Lincui heard this, followed behind Yue Zhanyan, and glanced at the shopkeeper.

Seeing that Yue Zhanyan didn't intend to say anything here, he also followed behind him and went out of the rouge shop together.

As soon as Yue Zhanyan and the others left, the shopkeeper suddenly sat on the ground weakly, his eyes were blank, and his body trembled slightly.

After a while, he got up from the ground, walked to the table tremblingly, and picked up the wooden box that Yue Zhanyan had seen before.

Only then did he realize that he had forgotten to lock the lock of the wooden box, although there was only a formula in it, but if he was seen, he could think that the formula was only in his and Lu Wenkang's hands.

On the manufacturing side, he only needs to prepare the things needed for the people in each process, and the formula will not fall into their hands.

He didn't pay attention just now, there seemed to be only two maids beside Madame, and there was another one who came in from behind, and the maid who came in from behind had her eyes on him for a while.

That look, although he didn't look at it carefully, he always felt bad, could it be that Madame already knew something?

Looking at the formula in the box again, the order is not the order he put before, which is obvious, someone has moved.

This box, he has to wipe it several times a day, and the order in which the formulas are placed has never been messed up, and now, the formula that should have been placed at the bottom is directly placed on the first sheet.

His hand loosened weakly, and the box fell to the table, spilling out all the recipes inside.

He didn't guess wrong, he forgot to lock the box yesterday, and today, the formula inside was known by Mrs., although she is stupid, but the maid next to her is not stupid.

Just what she asked herself, it was not for no reason, but to test him, every time she went out, she took the maidservant with her, and the maid beside her was not an ordinary maid at first glance.

Also, according to the Prime Minister's love for her, how could she accompany an ordinary maid, knowing that she didn't understand a lot, naturally someone reminded her in her ear.

It's over, this time, he's really finished, but what about his child, what should he do?

As soon as the shopkeeper thought about it, he figured out what was going on, not that he wasn't cautious enough, but that he didn't take Yue Zhanyan in his eyes.
