Chapter 60 Analysis
Outside the carriage, Wei Er was driving the carriage quickly, heading in the direction of the palace.
The expression of the fourth prince in the carriage was slightly stunned at the moment, and he felt that he had grasped the key point of the military salary case.
His appearance made Luo Ying next to him unclear.
Could it be that he didn't admit his mistakes, and the words he just said made the four princes angry?
But that's angry, it's too stingy.
But in order to save himself, his little cabbage went out today. It's okay to admit your mistake a little.
"Lord Wang, what's wrong with you? Didn't I say I shouldn't be in prison alone? Okay, I'll admit it..."
Before Luo Ying could finish speaking, the eyes of the four princes lit up.
looked at Luo Ying, "Princess, do you think Wei Ming is the most unlikely, where will he hide the remaining 20,000 taels of gold?" ”
Luo Ying was a little speechless, could she still listen to herself. It's too fast.
However, when it comes to the military salary case, Luo Ying is also a little serious, after all, it is about her father's safety.
She thought for a moment and said, "The most unlikely... The place, of course, is in his house, and there is also the household department. ”
The fourth prince nodded, "The princess is right, these two places are indeed the most unlikely places. But there is another place, but the princess didn't take it into account. ”
"One more?"
Luo Ying frowned, she thought repeatedly.
And where else?
Home, where to work. That's it.
Where else is it possible?
She shook her head.
When the fourth prince saw Luo Ying's reaction, he was not surprised. If he hadn't interrogated Wei Ming today, he wouldn't have thought of that place. But that place is only possible.
He smiled and said, "Princess, today I secretly asked Wei Ming something about the military salary case. The king asked him to tell him what he thought of the military pay bill. And he said much to this king. However, this king was very impressed by two of the points he said! ”
"Which two?"
Luo Ying was curious, could it be that Wei Ming was exposed.
The fourth prince smiled, "First point, Wei Ming said that the 100,000 taels of gold, of which 80,000 taels were hidden by Ding Cheng. Of course, with the help of the location on Ding Cheng's suicide note, the 80,000 taels of gold were found. ”
"The second point is that Wei Ming told the king that the remaining 20,000 taels of gold are related to the rest of the people who escorted the military pay and military department. Of course, the king interrogated them all today. Apparently it doesn't matter. ”
Luo Ying interjected: "Lord Wang, Wei Ming is obviously not credible, all this is his conspiracy. He wanted to divert the attention of the prince's investigation. ”
"So where should we put our eyes?"
The fourth prince looked at Luo Ying and smiled.
Luo Ying seemed to have thought of something at this moment, and the memory of her previous life made her more aware of this situation, and there must be a connection.
If what Wei Ming said was not true, then the last thing he wanted others to investigate. He will definitely tell everyone to ignore it, to forget about this place.
Luo Ying groaned, and the four princes on the side did not speak.
He had some ideas. However, his idea is that military salaries are also possible in that place. The princess is so smart, she should have thought of it.
Sure enough, there seemed to be a flash of light in Luo Ying's bright eyes.
Luo Ying said excitedly: "Lord Wang, do you say that this is possible." Since the 20,000 taels of gold have nothing to do with the rest of the households. There is only one truth. The rest of the military salary is also related to Ding Cheng. So the last time the Imperial Forest Guard didn't dig in place, the military salary must still be there. ”
"Not bad! The princess also said just now that the most dangerous place is the safest place. This king judged that in Wei Ming's thoughts, there was no place more dangerous than the place where 80,000 taels of gold were found. ”
"That place is obviously not going to be searched again. At that time, the king went to the Royal Forest Guard camp to investigate, but he also ignored the location of the gold marked on Ding Cheng's suicide note, so he did not check it. Of course, the remaining 20,000 taels of gold found in that place was only a possibility. Don't get your hopes up too much, too. ”
The fourth prince looked at Luo Ying, Luo Ying smiled, she naturally understood what the four princes meant, it was nothing more than to let her understand not to expect too much.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Thinking of this, Luo Ying's heart warmed a little.
"The prince is right. But the chances are still quite big. ”
Seeing Luo Ying, she understood what she meant.
The four princes did not hesitate. He shouted outside the carriage, "Wei Er, turn around." Go to Clear Water Lake outside the city. ”
Ding Cheng's suicide note, the four princes read it clearly. The place where the 80,000 taels of gold was hidden was near Qingshui Lake.
"Yes, Lord Wang!"
......
About ten meters away from Qingshui Lake, the fourth prince Luo Ying and his party are here.
It was already dark at the moment, and the guards lit a campfire.
With the help of the firelight, the four princes found the traces of the royal guard's previous excavation.
It was a pit of about five meters, but it was not deep. It is estimated that it is equivalent to just burying the box.
Luo Ying circled around the dirt pit.
"Lord, look at the soil under this pit, it doesn't look like it's been renovated. It's unlikely that there's something underneath. However, it is also very difficult to investigate in this area. The range is too wide, and it is not easy to find a place to hide military salaries. ”
The fourth prince muttered, "If you really can't do it, dig up a hundred meters nearby." ”
He looked at Wei Er next to him.
"You go to a nearby village, ask the villagers to borrow some digging tools, and dig from the side of this pit all the way around."
He glanced at the dozen or so guards around him, and there were still too few of them.
"In addition, we have too few people, you try to hire nearby villagers to come and help dig, money is not a problem."
"Yes, lord."
Wei Er was ordered to leave.
The fourth prince walked up to Luo Ying and looked at Luo Ying with a worried face.
comforted: "Princess, don't worry. Even if you can't find that batch of military salaries. This king will also have a way, and he will definitely not let his father-in-law have trouble. ”
Luo Ying looked at the four princes, and she was also a little moved in her heart. The fourth prince was really good to her, if he hadn't thought of this place. She didn't even have a clue now.
Looking at the four princes who were full of scholarly temperament, his eyes were also a little tired at the moment.
She whispered, "Lord Wang, you go to the carriage to rest first." It's so late in the day. I'll just watch from here. ”
The four princes were slightly stunned, but their smiles became brighter and brighter.
"Princess, go and rest. This king is not tired at all. Or princess, go and take a rest. ”
He was telling the truth, just with his strength close to the grandmaster, even if he didn't sleep all night, he wouldn't get tired.
Although her own princess has some strength, the gap between her and herself is too big.
Luo Ying was about to speak.
The fourth prince directly took Luo Ying's hand and walked to the carriage not far away.
At this moment, Luo Ying was a little depressed, why didn't she pull herself without her permission. The fourth prince doesn't know how powerful he is. But Nian has worked hard in the past few days, so spare him. But he still needs to take a break.
She was about to speak.
The fourth prince said jokingly: "Princess, you don't need this king to carry you up." It's the same as before. ”
When Luo Ying heard this, her face was slightly red.
Obviously, she thought of being hugged by the princess twice by the fourth prince before.
She glared at the Four Princes.
"Don't bother the prince, I'll go up."
After speaking, without waiting for the fourth prince to speak, he decisively got into the carriage.
She forgot that she originally wanted the fourth prince to take a break.
But when she got to the carriage, Luo Ying instantly remembered this.
The curtains on the carriage were hurriedly opened, and the night was a little dark.
However, vaguely, I still saw the four princes, walking towards the back of the dirt pit not far away.
"This little cabbage."
Luo Ying muttered.
However, the upturned corners of her mouth revealed her mood at the moment, which was obviously excellent.
The princess of the four princes
