Chapter 592: The sky is dark
The old man looked inexplicable, and he didn't know why he suddenly asked about this, so he only nodded and said, "Of course, I have always kept it personally." ”
"Then you ......"
Although Lie Chang'an's expression was serious, his tone was very soft, "Can you move the silver to build a moat in the treasury?" ”
The hometown was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously shook his head and said, "Of course not, why should I move that?" Isn't that the official money issued by the treasury to build a moat, how can I move it for no reason? Besides, I don't lack anything, so why do I have to touch the official bank. ”
As soon as the words fell, Pei Song, who was behind Lie Chang'an, felt a thunderbolt on a sunny day, his face was pale, his legs were weak, and he fell directly to the ground.
"What's going on?"
Seeing Pei Song's terrifying appearance, he was really startled, "What's going on?" ”
Jasmine was also startled, she had never seen Pei Song's gaffe after knowing her for so long, her face was like earth, she was terrified, and hurriedly asked, "Yes, uncle, what's going on?" ”
Lie Changan listened to the answer from his hometown, and the sense of ominousness in his heart became stronger and stronger, and he said, "There are 300,000 taels of silver missing from the treasury, which is the official silver used to build the moat." ”
"What?"
The old family's eyes widened, and he was not surprised.
Although he grew up in the palace since he was a child, he was pampered and well-fed, but he also knew that although 300,000 taels of silver was not an astronomical amount, it was definitely not a small amount.
You must know that a second-grade military general like Lie Chang'an only earns 300 taels a month, and these 300,000 taels of silver are enough for ordinary people to eat and drink for a few lifetimes.
The hometown is also a little panicked, after all, the construction of the moat is the responsibility of the Lie Chang's security right, seven million taels of silver was personally escorted into the Lie Mansion by the prince's brother, but now it has disappeared 300,000 taels of silver, if this matter is not investigated, then Lie Chang'an will inevitably be responsible.

"What then?"
Holding Lie Chang'an's hand tightly, he asked anxiously and worriedly, "Who would take such a large sum of silver?" ”
"Don't worry."
Lie Changan knew that he was scared of her, looked at her worried and nervous eyes, his heart was warm, and gently patted the back of her hand and comforted, "Let's go and ask Grandmother." ”
The hometown followed Lie Chang'an all the way to Nanyuan, and my grandmother was returning from the Buddha hall after worshipping the Buddha, almost as soon as the front foot entered the door, they followed with the back foot.
The grandmother saw that they were all serious and nervous, and each of them looked very solemn, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" One by one, they are menacing. ”
The matter was urgent, Lie Chang'an didn't care about greetings, and asked directly, "Grandmother, grandson has an important matter to ask you, do you have the official money to build a moat in the treasury?" ”
Grandmother was stunned for a moment, then suddenly lowered her face and asked, "What do you mean by this?" What do I do with the official bank? ”
Pei Song's hopes were instantly shattered, and he felt a blow to his head, his eyes were dizzy, and the sky was dark.
Lie Chang'an's heart sank, and his thin lips pursed slightly, "The seven million taels of silver that built the moat are now only six million and seven hundred thousand taels left, and three hundred thousand taels of silver are missing." ”
"What?"
The grandmother was equally stunned, "How can this be?" ”
Lie Chang'an's face was solemn and silent.
Grandmother knew that this matter was serious, and reacted immediately, and said bluntly, "In addition to me, I have the key to the treasury, and there is also a hometown and Pei Song." ”
