When Xiao Yunchao heard that Feng Wuxian was visiting, his heart couldn't help but feel relieved. He has been under so much pressure these days that sometimes he even feels a little disdain and shame in the eyes of his colleagues. Fortunately, those staff in the palace are really good, and the words prepared before the court every time they come in handy, so although they work hard, they still don't let others see the joke.

"Uncle, it's already summer now, but you haven't used ice here, aren't you afraid of the heat breaking your body?" Feng Wuxian entered the door and laughed, "If others see it, they can't laugh at the fact that the people in your mansion will not be considerate of the master?" ”

Xiao Yunchao was stunned for a moment, and then saved the scene when the previous manager came to report, how could he say that he was in a bad mood and scolded his family for not knowing how to be thrifty? Immediately, he slipped into the past, and while inviting Feng Wuxian to the hall, he was guessing his nephew's intentions in his heart. Of course, he knew that Feng Wuxian had been deeply favored in the past few years, but he was still a little estranged from his uncle, so he didn't visit much, and this time he came when he happened to be in trouble, and it was hard to guarantee that there was nothing bigger.

Who knew that as soon as Feng Wuxian sat down, he signaled Xiao Yunchao to send back unrelated people and others. After everyone retreated, his originally peaceful face could even be frosted, and the iron was terrifyingly blue, and he was completely uncalm when he entered the door. Seeing such a situation, Xiao Yunchao's already worried mood suddenly became even more worried.

"Traceless, what is it that makes your face so ugly? I'm already exhausted, so don't kick any more trouble. Xiao Yunchao was really frightened by the current situation, although He Furong was also troubled, but compared to him, he was much calmer, and sometimes he was even in the mood to sneer for a while, which made this uncle Guo's mood completely fall into a trough. If He Weitao hadn't been thinking about him from time to time, I'm afraid he would have to complain in the name of entering the palace to ask for peace.

"Uncle, do you have a very reliable bookkeeper here?" Feng Wuxian didn't say what he meant first, but asked about irrelevant things, "This matter is not trivial, and only people who can fully trust it can do it." ”

Xiao Yunchao was stunned for a long time, and then agreed in confusion, not for anything else, but to know his nephew's temper, and he would never make trouble for nothing. He personally went outside and gave a few orders to a small servant, and then walked in, "Although the tent in the house is reliable, it is still not as good as those staff, after all, they are all chosen by the mother, and there should be no mistakes." If I'm not mistaken, Xiao Nian's accounting skills are also quite good. He looked apprehensively at Feng Wuxi's face, and felt a little restless.

Feng Wuxian just nodded, but did not answer, obviously preparing to wait for the man to come in, this unspeakable silence made Xiao Yunchao's irritability stronger and stronger. Fortunately, Nian Jiacheng was not slow to come, he rarely had this kind of experience of being summoned, and his overly serious behavior on weekdays made Xiao Yunchao always stay away from this staff, and he was really a little curious about what was going on today.

Nian Jiacheng cautiously closed the door, he was a smart man, and he had already noticed that the two nobles on the seat had uncertain faces, and there seemed to be something quite embarrassing. "Subordinates see your lordship, see your seven highnesses." He bowed, and then raised his head without humility or arrogance.

Although he had heard of this Xiao Mansion staff who was admired even by his mother, Feng Wuxian saw him for the first time, so he deliberately took a few more looks, and appreciated his attitude of being honored and pampered. Although Xiao Yunchao was dissatisfied with the overly arrogant attitude of this staff, now was the time to use him, and he had to rein in his usual official tone, "Jiacheng, His Royal Highness said that there is something important that needs your help, you have to show a lot of ability, don't live up to my trust." ”

Nian Jiacheng's heart jumped, and then he replied calmly: "But please ask Your Highness to instruct, if your subordinates can solve it, they will do their best to help." ”

Feng Wuxian didn't say much, took out the account book and handed it over, his face still having that indescribable gloomy expression. Nian Jiacheng thought it was an important document, but he was a little surprised when he saw that it was an account book, but he still flipped through it attentively, and his mouth was full of words from time to time, and his face became more and more solemn. Xiao Yunchao's heart, which was already holding on, suddenly lifted up even more, and secretly scolded Feng Wuxian and Nian Jiacheng for playing dumb riddles in his heart.

It was easy to wait for Jiacheng to finish reading the account book, and Xiao Yunchao immediately couldn't wait to ask: "Jiacheng, what is written in it, what is the mystery?" ”

"Lord Hui, I remember that it is some secret accounts of the former Sichuan Governor Tai." Nian Jiacheng returned the account book, and only then replied cautiously, and then added, "And these things are all invisible." ”

Xiao Yunchao suddenly felt a sense of relief, "Since the thing has been recovered, it doesn't matter. In addition, it is not uncommon for Tai to have some dealings with the dignitaries of the court, and even I often borrow some silver taels. Even if this account falls into the hands of the emperor, there is still room for things. He exhaled softly, and then complained with some dissatisfaction, "Without a trace, you need to be so nervous about this little thing, you can't hold your breath, right?" ”

Nian Jiacheng shook his head helplessly, the adult he served was really careless, he didn't wait for Feng Wuxian to answer, and directly poked out the facts. "My lord, if these accounts only involve the court officials on your side, it would be fine, but the truth is the opposite." He glanced at Feng Wuxi's eyes uneasily, he was already a little jealous of this highness's vast powers, "The things inside are all related to another highness!" ”

Xiao Yunchao's face really changed at this time, Tai Yi was also a local official he valued, how could he hook up with other princes behind his back? Thinking of the impeachment of the Supervision Yuan and his own plans, he is completely messed up, and it is naturally right to lose his pawn and protect the car, but if this person also pokes other leaks, things will be in trouble. "Jiacheng, this matter is very important, you have to watch it!" Xiao Yunchao's voice trembled slightly.

"Uncle, I've already read it cursoryly before, and although I can't understand much, I've finally figured it out. This Lord Tai is clearly stepping on two boats, and he is against you for Yang and Yin, and more than half of what he has gained over the years has been filial to others. It's really not worth it because my uncle pleaded for him yesterday. There was a bit of sarcasm in Feng Wuxi's words, but they were well hidden, only Nian Jiacheng's lips twitched slightly, as if he noticed this.

Xiao Yunchao didn't care about the other meanings of his nephew's words, rushed to Nian Jiacheng in a few steps, and roared fiercely: "Who is that ungrateful thing hooking up with?" Tell me about it! Unconsciously, he took out his official tone again, and Xiao Yunchao at this time had completely recovered that arrogant and unruly nature. If Tai Yutong was in front of him, he would definitely not recognize this usually polite and polite minister.

"It's the Third Highness." Nian Jiacheng gritted his teeth and replied, "If what is recorded in the account books is true, their collusion has not been a day or two. The amount of money in the middle is even greater, and the total amount is not less than one million taels. ”

"This despicable villain, this official will never let him go!" Xiao Yunchao burst out a few words from between his teeth word by word, "Don't let him repay the trust that the official has placed in him over the years, even if he wants to die, he has to live and suffer first!" ”

Compared with Tai Yitong's true face, Nian Jiacheng is most concerned about another matter, what kind of channel did Feng Wuxian get this extremely confidential thing, this is the center of the problem. The only thing to be sure of now was whether the account books were true or not, and although he had already believed eight points, the matter was too high to be dealt with lightly. "Your Highness the Seventh, forgive your subordinates for taking the liberty of it, can you tell me where this thing came from? With the same prudence and secrecy of the account books, he will never let this thing slip out of his hands, and there must have been a measure to recover it. ”

This person really didn't forget the other side of the matter, Feng Wuxian looked at Nian Jiacheng with a serious face, and couldn't help but sigh. "It's a long story, if I really think about it, I'm sorry for my uncle." He recounted everything in a slightly abridged way, but he omitted a lot of key things. Rao is like this, Xiao Yunchao and Nian Jiacheng also listened to it with a swaying expression, Sichuan is still far away from the capital after all, and they are not very clear about many things.

Although he accepted Mianying's preemptive approach in his heart, Xiao Yunchao still complained about it, but he was relieved to see the dissatisfaction and apology that Feng Wuxian also expressed. If that thing is taken back by Tai Yutong, maybe he will have to be blinded all the time, and then he will be passive if he continues to develop. Although it is too late to know now, let the staff calculate carefully, maybe they can drag the wind into the water without a word. Xiao Yunchao is not a generous person, there is no reason to let others bully him and not fight back.

"Without a trace, although that Mianying made his own opinion, but for the sake of him, he has done a good deed, so don't blame him. Alas, my uncle usually thinks he knows people, but he has been deceived by Tai Yitong for so many years and still doesn't know it, and it's really ashamed to think about it. Xiao Yunchao showed a rare embarrassed look, "On weekdays, if you have time, you can help your uncle a little more, and you won't have anything to say when you want to come to the emperor, after all, they are all your own family." ”

This sentence was what Feng Wuxian expected the most, although he was friendly with the two left and right attendants, it was impossible for him to cross Xiao Yunchao to do any extra business. As soon as this uncle said this, he would be able to enter and leave the ministry in the future. Thinking of this, Feng Wuxian couldn't help but smile a little on his face, and hurriedly agreed. However, things still have to go through the father's level, Feng Wuxian knows this very well, if you don't want to make a mistake in a major event, you can't be bullied by this trick.

Nian Jiacheng was thinking about Wei Mianying, no matter who he was, he would be dissatisfied with such unauthorized actions by his subordinates, and the same was true for the appearance of looking at the wind without a trace. However, he couldn't see through the true mind of this prince. In just a few years, he was promoted from the county order to the prefect, although he had the credit of Xiao Yunchao and the support of the wind without a trace, but in terms of itself, it cannot but be said that this Mianying really has extraordinary ability. Just looking at the fact that he can make such a decisive choice this time, it shows that he will not be a small talent in the future. The two of them in the hall are still discussing the plan to go up tomorrow, but Nian Jiacheng's thoughts have flown elsewhere, should someone report to Niangniang and let her pay special attention to the movements of this other son?
