Chapter 592: The Problem
"Say so. Now it's a dead end again. Zhang Fan's words sounded like he was asking something. But actually. This is also a manifestation of his extreme helplessness at the moment. I was worried about what would happen to Yingyue and Zhaoxue. And now I know what is really going on.
But. Suddenly grasped a glimmer of possibility. Now it's said to be impossible. This couldn't help but make Zhang Fan very frustrated. And frustrated at the same time. This feeling of disorientation once again. It also made him feel very annoyed.
"Your Excellency." saw Zhang Fan like this. Liang Chao also wanted to comfort and comfort him. He said, "Now it seems." I can't find anything from the 'Tianning Temple'. But since the adults said it. Maybe there are really some corrupt monks in the temple. The lowly post will be investigated later. Yes or no. But adults. If that's what happened. I don't think there's anything to worry about. After all, it is very likely that some monks are just greedy for a small bargain. I don't think it will do any harm to the two ladies. ”
"Alas. If that's the case. That's good, of course. Zhang Fan sighed. Said helplessly. "I'm afraid it's not going to be that simple. Otherwise, there would be no need for the two of them to hide this from their family. ”
Zhang Fan's words are naturally reasonable. But Liang Chao at the moment. In fact, the confusion in his heart did not seem to be much less than that of Zhang Fan. After all, this matter is in the "Tianning Temple". He couldn't agree with it in his heart. If that's the case. It's not that the harm isn't harmful. At the very least. It's that he didn't do his job well. After all, he is also doing the work of supervising the monastery.
"It's just that I still have some questions." Zhang Fan continued. "You said that. Men were sent to follow them both. Never let them out of sight. ”
"Exactly. This has always been the case with the people of Weizhong. Liang Chao nodded. Said. "Unless you really go into something you don't see. Otherwise, it will never leave the sight. ”
"But ......," Zhang Fan said. Again and again I took the dossier and brought it over. While flipping through it. He said. "I read all these files from beginning to end. There is hardly a word missing. But I didn't see any use for the two of them at all. The number of degrees used on weekdays. This dossier is also clearly recorded. But it didn't add up to a hundred taels of silver. In total, the two of them borrowed nearly two hundred taels of silver. But where is it used? ”
The question of "...... this". Liang Chao couldn't answer either. Naturally, he believed in his men. There is absolutely nothing to be missed in this kind of thing. If you don't see it, it's absolutely nothing.
Come to think of it. Liang Chao also involuntarily took the dossier. I looked through it. It's just that what he is looking at now is not just the days that Zhang Fan assigned to him. He also flipped forward quite a bit.
I saw Liang Chao take the file to watch. Zhang Fan didn't mean to stop it. Instead, he looked nervous. Hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Did you find anything. ”
And Liang Chao did not answer Zhang Fan's words immediately. Instead, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper. It was a long time. Liang Chao raised his head at this time. looked at Zhang Fan and said, "My lord." Fang was accused of discovering some problems when he first looked at these files. ”
"Hmm." Heard Liang Chao say this. Zhang Fan couldn't help but be puzzled. "Isn't that about 'Tianning Temple'? Didn't you say there was nothing there. ”
"'Tianning Temple' is nothing." Liang Chao said. But where did the two ladies spend the money? This matter really has to be studied. ”
"Didn't you say that even in the 'Tianning Temple', there may be some monks who do not abide by the Dharma." Zhang Fan still didn't understand what he meant. "Wouldn't it be better for someone to investigate tomorrow?"
"Nope. My lord. Actually......" Liang Chao stopped. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "This matter is naturally for people to investigate. But let's be honest. I don't think anything is going to happen there. It's not that the humble position still holds the time-honored signboard of 'Tianning Temple' and can't put it down. It does not mean that the humble position trusts all the monks who practice in the 'Tianning Temple'. ”
"Then why do you say that?" Listen to Liang Chao say this. Zhang Fan was even more puzzled.
"Your Excellency. This question is going back to the time-honored signboard of 'Tianning Temple'. Liang Chao said. It's very old there. Although for so many years. It has also been renovated many times in successive dynasties. But the monastery's rules and precepts have not changed much. The monks who practice there also observe this rule. It is to receive tourists. Or take some sesame oil money. Never forced. I won't say that if you donate a lot, it's sincere. It's all about fate. So. There it is either the host or the novice. All of them are the same. Unless His Majesty is there in person. Otherwise, even if she is a lady in the palace, she is still a prince and minister. It's all general treatment.
"It's not a private room. A few places for visitors to rest are also less private. There was no single summoning of the eminent monks in the temple to say this. In short. In the 'Tianning Temple'. All events are public. There is no concealment at all. So. If it were the two ladies in the 'Tianning Temple'. He also dared to guarantee that his subordinates would never fail to see them.
"And. Even if our people are lowly and don't say anything. I think adults understand it very well. As long as it's the target for them to monitor. They don't care who they are. Completely non-discriminatory. Everything is recorded. Nothing is missing.
"So to speak. Since the adults have not seen the record of the two ladies using a large amount of silver in the 'Tianning Temple'. That's for sure. The two ladies really didn't have a large sum of money there. ”
Liang Chao's words. Zhang Fan was very relieved. As a matter of fact. And so it is. Ever since he became the commander of the Jinyi Guard. For Jinyiwei's ability to do things. Especially his ability to monitor. It can be said that it was breathtaking from the beginning. It's a little numb now.
But at the end of the day. Numbness is numbness. But Zhang Fan no matter when. I also have to admit that Jinyiwei's ability to do things is really strong enough. If only there was a copy of the Jinyiwei's surveillance file in front of him now. But the above is a passing mention of many things. Then Zhang Fan would feel strange.
And now. The files in front of him did not say that Yingyue and Zhaoxue had done anything in the "Tianning Temple". Even the money donated for sesame oil is clearly recorded in a few taels and documents. That's definitely the case.
Even if someone is sent to investigate now. Maybe it's really a monk who can find out what kind of self-enriching monks. But it is estimated that it has nothing to do with Yingyue and Zhaoxue.
Seem. We discussed it for a long time. The situation is back to square one. So far, I haven't figured out anything about it.
This situation can't help but make Zhang Fan very annoyed. After all, I've seen so much now. But nothing has been found out.
Suddenly. Zhang Fan's eyes lit up. Raised his head and looked at Liang Chao. "What did you just want to say?" ”
Liang Chao who was flipping through the file. After listening to Zhang Fan's words. Keep your head up. said: "Actually, when I first read these files just now. I found a problem. ”
"What is it?"
"The two ladies do the same thing every day. In fact, it's not just the way to the 'Tianning Temple'. Liang Chao said this. Pointing to the date written on the file. Said to Zhang Fan. "Your Excellency, please see. It's already March of this year. The lowly position just flipped back again. I found the same problem. ”
"What the hell is it?" Zhang Fan was already a little impatient.
"Tea house." Liang Chao said.
"Tea house." Heard Liang Chao say this. Zhang Fan's brows furrowed again.
Truly. Tea houses are definitely a common denominator. Zhang Fan had already discovered it since he had just opened the file and not turned a few pages. But the reason why he didn't add this factor to the question. It's because he doesn't think it's a problem.
After all. Even if it's himself. There is also a teahouse that I often go to. And for a lot of people. Drinking tea is such a thing once it is recognized in a place. It's not easy to change for a long time.
"What's going on?" Zhang Fan couldn't help asking. "Something to say. I also go to the same place every day for tea. Besides. No matter what the season. I don't stick to drinking tea. And the two of them only go to those teahouses that are specially designed for women. Is there a problem here? ”
"Your Excellency. Drinking tea is indeed unconventional. Liang Chao said. But the two ladies are ladies after all. Even though the teahouse was opened exclusively for women. But go every day. Don't adults think something is wrong? Humiliation means nothing else. But come to mind. Speaking of drinking tea. In addition to the place where the adults go, it is indeed very elegant. It makes people feel pure and clear. I'm afraid that even there may not be as good as the tea made in the homes of adults. ”
Liang Chao: This is nonsense. Tea leaves in Zhang Fan's house. Half of them were tributes from the forbidden palace given by the court. How could it be bad. The other half was bought from the market. But when the dynasty is a product of Taifu. It is still the most smooth sailing in the court today, Zhang Fan's family. How can it be worse?
And now. Liang Chao raised this question. Zhang Fan thought about it in a blink of an eye, and it was really like this.
"Then you mean to say. The problem lies in this teahouse. Zhang Fan asked.
"I don't dare to assert it now." Liang Chao said very frankly. "But. Inferior subordinates. The only place where you can't see the two ladies. It's only in the private room of this teahouse. ”
