Hearing Chu Xingchen say this, Zhang Song's face looked at a little less qíng.

"I want to hear about it." Zhang Song raised his head and met Chu Xingchen's eyes, but it seemed that he was still reluctant to say anything about himself (qíng).

"Lord Zhang embezzled the disaster relief money in order to hand over the money to the people in advance, and we have already found out about this matter."

This is their greatest sincerity, Chu Xingchen looked directly at Zhang Song after speaking. "Master Zhang, so far, I believe that the Guogong Mansion is the best for you and me, I hope you can understand."

Hearing this, Zhang Song lowered his head and was silent.

"I have been serving the country and the people all my life, but I have ended up like this, the government has not acted, and I have been embezzling disaster relief funds, I am just for the people, but in the end, no one believes me."

Recalling all the grievances he had suffered during this time, Zhang Song only felt as if he was in another world.

Meng Qi, who was on the side, suddenly took over the words and said, "Lord Chu is a good official and worthy of your trust. ”

After finishing speaking, Meng Qi also put a letter in front of Zhang Song, which was the evidence that Fengjiang secretly sent someone to observe Zhang Song.

At the end, Zhang Song sighed, "It seems that I have to trust adults." ”

During this time, he always knew that he was being watched, but he didn't expect it to be Fengjiang's people. When it comes to Fengjiang, Zhang Song always has more complaints in his heart.

"That (rì) In the Shizi's mansion, it was the Shizi's account book that was responsible for the trade with Mobei that was stolen."

"Ledger?" Meng Qi asked.

If they can find the news of the ledger, then wouldn't it be just right to help Zhang Wan'er?

Zhang Song nodded, "The whereabouts of this ledger are unknown, but the prince suspects that it is here, so he will remove my official position and imprison me (jìn) here." ”

But in fact, Zhang Song didn't know where the ledger was.

"My lord, although I know the importance of the ledger (xìng), the ledger is really not with me." Although he had explained this countless times, this time he still had to say it again.

Although he said that he had secretly taken some of the official silver from the prince's mansion, he accidentally collided with the assassin. In the confusion between the two sides, a box of silver was accidentally lost.

So in Feng Jiang's view, Zhang Song and those talents are in the same group. Feng Jiang also secretly tried to find out the whereabouts of the account book, but Zhang Song's attitude was extremely uncooperative.

In the end, this made Feng Jiang feel annoyed, but he didn't dare to expand the situation. After Meng Qi and Chu Xingchen listened to Zhang Song's report, they knew it in their hearts.

However, Meng Qi suddenly thought of something, and his eyes fell on Zhang Song's (shēn), "Lord Zhang, you should know those people who have passed away from the Prince's Mansion to steal." ”

Not in a questioning tone, totally in the affirmative.

In the conversation just now, Zhang Song has been deliberately concealing those who steal.

But he ignored a very important point, if he didn't know the assassin at all, then Feng Jiang had no reason to blame Zhang Song for all this.

For a ruthless person like Feng Jiang, more often than not, he only focuses on the result rather than the process.

Hearing this, Zhang Song's face was a little more nervous, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded.

"The assassin is my brother-in-law, a few years ago when he went out in distress, I always thought he was gone, but who knows, we met unexpectedly in the Shizi Mansion."

After Zhang Song finished speaking, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, he had been under tremendous pressure in his heart these days, hiding all these things (qíng).

"Zhang Song, I'll ask me one last time, the ledger is not with you, right?"

Meng Qi spoke, and his horrified eyes fell on Zhang Song's (shēn). For those irrelevant stories next to him, Meng Qi didn't have so much mind to let himself listen.

"If we really lost the ledger that day, maybe ......," Zhang Song lowered his head and thought for a while, "Then (rì) everything we brought out in the Shizi Mansion was taken away by my brother-in-law." ”

"What about the others?" Chu Xingchen hurriedly asked.

"He's gone." Zhang Song sighed and said to the two people in front of him: "The disaster (qíng) in Jiangnan is even more serious than here, and King Chenan drove the victims out of the city directly, and he did not accept the victims from the outside. ”

When it comes to this incident (qíng), Zhang Song is angry for no reason. At the beginning, Pingshui Town could have been used as a good dredging place to find a way to dredge the victims.

However, Fengjiang ordered the place to be sealed off and not to accept any of the victims.

Therefore, those victims can only travel longer distances to Jiangnan. But who knows, the king of Nan on the south side of Jiangnan also gave the same order.

The first two (rì) got the news that a lot of refugees had gathered in the south of the Yangtze River. And because the king of the south ordered that those refugees should not be allowed to enter the city, and Qi Heng, who was sent by the imperial court to solve the problem, has not yet arrived, so there is also a wailing there now.

After leaving Zhang Song's courtyard, the three of them walked silently on the street.

Even at this moment, they can't give Zhang Song a perfect answer, unless they find the ledger as soon as possible.

Otherwise, as long as Nanwang and his son are here, I am afraid that this disaster relief trip will not be able to go smoothly.

"We'll go down to Jiangnan early tomorrow morning." The three of them went back, and when they went downstairs, Qi Yu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

Chu Xingchen nodded, suddenly thought of Liu Wan'er again, and opened his mouth to report Liu Wan'er's affairs (qíng) to Qi Yu one by one.

"Then (diàn), should we take her with us on this trip to Jiangnan?"

Although Chu Xingchen felt that he and Liu Wan'er were embarrassed to get along, the matter of Jun Shankou (qíng) was also imminent, and they had to solve it as soon as possible.

Now that everything is gathered on the ledger, I'm afraid ......

Qi Yu glanced up at Chu Xingchen next to him (shēn) and asked rhetorically, "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?" ”

"Me? Do I have an answer? Chu Xingchen pointed at himself in surprise, and when he wanted to say something more, Qi Yu had already turned (shēn) and went up to the second floor.

Helplessly, he could only turn his eyes for help to Meng Qi next to him (shēn), who knew that Meng Qi waved his hand, and then coldly dropped a sentence, "Say it yourself." ”

After finishing speaking, Meng Qi Zhuan (shēn) went directly to the second floor, ready to tell Zhou Huan about their next arrangements. As for Chu Xingchen after (shēn), he chose to ignore it.

Chu Xingchen lingered in place for a long time, and finally mustered up the courage to knock on Liu Wan'er's door.

However, Liu Wan'er was not in the room, and Chu Xingchen followed Xiao Er's guidance to the place on the first floor by the window.

Liu Wan'er was holding a wine glass in a daze alone, leaning against the window, and the moonlight poured down, which made her add a bit of feminine softness.

I don't know when it started, the big girl when I was a child, grew into the sentimental appearance I have now.

"Drinking alone?"

Chu Xingchen hooked his lips and smiled, pretending to meet by chance, and sat opposite Liu Wan'er.

"It's just nothing." Liu Wan'er glanced up at the man in front of her and nodded.

Obviously, he used to admire him so much, but in the end, this man can't rely on himself enough.

"Sometimes, I really don't know if I'm pitiful or what......"

Liu Wan'er seemed to be a little drunk, and she opened her mouth like this, so that Chu Xingchen didn't react at all.

"We found out something about Hemobei (qíng), which is in the account book of the Shizi Mansion." Chu Xingchen changed the subject, "Ming (rì) may have to go to Jiangnan, maybe you can find out everything there." ”

Seizing the opportunity, Chu Xingchen hurriedly told Liu Wan'er the purpose of his trip.

"Hmm." Liu Wan'er nodded, lowered her head and continued to add a glass of wine to herself, bowing her head and drinking.

Seeing that Liu Wan'er had no intention of continuing to chat, Chu Xingchen sat in a daze in embarrassment.

He looked at the flasks, glasses, and the woman sitting at the table, but the atmosphere still seemed awkwardly important.

"Anyway, it's all about checking the ledger (qíng), why don't you go with us?"

Chu Xingchen tried his best to speak in a relaxed tone, but Liu Wan'er shook her head, "No, I'm enough to trouble you now." ”

Although she asked Zhou Huan for help before, Zhou Huan was almost in danger today, and she probably guessed that they must have something else (qíng), so it was important for her to leave early.

"Now that I know the ledger, I think I can do it alone." Liu Wan'er smiled, looking relaxed.

At the same time, though, she moved her feet, silently lifting something at her feet.

If Chu Xingchen hadn't suddenly appeared just now, I'm afraid that Liu Wan'er would have left this restaurant now.

What Chu Xingchen didn't notice was that when he was just walking towards Liu Wan'er, Liu Wan'er put the bag next to him (shēn) at his feet

Because of Liu Wan'er's opening, the atmosphere of the two of them quickly froze again.

Chu Xingchen knew that he had no way to respond to the woman's feelings (qíng) in front of him, "But, Wan'er, you know, I have always regarded you as a sister. ”

Chu Xingchen took a deep breath and said what was in his heart.

These two people always feel that the atmosphere is weird when they get along with Liu Wan'er, and Chu Xingchen, who has always acted very aggressively, can be regarded as having endured all the hardships, so he can't bear it.

"We've grown up together and we've been through a lot. Wan'er, you are in trouble, I can't ignore it. ”

Seeing Chu Xingchen in front of him speak so seriously, Liu Wan'er's face was rarely dyed with a smile

No matter how long it takes, what she admires most about Chu Xingchen is that he always retains this innocent young heart (xìng).

"Okay, I got it." Liu Wan'er looked up at Chu Xingchen, and then filled the wine glass in front of Chu Xingchen in this life. "If you think we can still be friends, why shouldn't I."

Yes, what happens if you don't have one? Liu Wan'er smiled bitterly in her heart, but she still had a bright smile on her face.
