Chapter 548: No Evidence
After taking a sip of tea, Ji Yanning ate a few more pieces of dim sum, and looked from the second floor of the private room to the street outside.
She glanced at the people on the street, and thought it seemed strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange.
"What's wrong?" Rong Che followed her gaze and didn't notice anything unusual.
Ji Yanning shook his head and said, "I just think it's strange." ”
Rong Che said: "After solving the matter of the shop, we will also go back to Chang'an earlier." ”
Ji Yanning smiled: "It's just a few hours away, don't worry." ”
This time is different from going to other places before, if you want to go back to Chang'an, this journey is not long.
Rong Che said: "In two days, the emperor should have found that the tomb of Huguo Temple is gone." ”
The tomb of Ying Caiwei in Huguo Temple is not paid attention to on weekdays, and the people in the temple are not allowed to get close to there, so since Ji Yanning asked people to dig up the tomb, no one has found it.
When Ji Yanning heard Rong Che's words, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he smiled: "He will probably guess my head." ”
Although there is no evidence, Rong Liang has seen Ji Yanning once near the cemetery, no matter what the purpose, Ji Yanning is the most suspicious one.
Rong Che said: "Don't worry, even if he doubts you, he can't do anything to you." ”
What's more, he had already prepared a backup move, and directly pushed this matter onto the two bastards, and this fire couldn't burn her body anyway.
Ji Yanning said: "It doesn't matter, he will find out after all, it's just a matter of time." ”
Rong Che held Ji Yanning's hand and said, "I just don't want you to be in danger." ”
Ji Yanning chuckled at Rong Che and said, "Don't worry, I value my hard-won life more than anyone else, and I won't let him die so easily." ”
She had already planted it once in Rong Ling's hands, and she would never be able to plant it a second time.
According to the current situation, presumably under the instigation of Mu Lin, the second prince's mental defense line slowly began to collapse, and in order to win the throne, he would probably take a risk.
But now that the emperor is in the prime of life, Ji Yanning can guess why he doesn't want to make a prince so soon.
When he still has the ability to take care of the country, how could Rong Liang be so determined?
He was such a selfish man, so selfish that he didn't even dare to trust his own son.
Although the government and the opposition, civil and military officials have always been urged to establish a prince, but unfortunately he is unmoved.
Ji Yanning walked around the town, and he was distracted.
Then she went to a pharmacy and grabbed a few pairs of medicinal herbs, and then she and Rong Che went back to the courtyard arranged for her by the shopkeeper.
"Don't you think there are too many people watching you along the way?" Rong Che frowned slightly, a little displeased.
Although Ji Yanning's appearance is outstanding, there will be many people on the street on weekdays to take a second look, but the eyes of the people in this town looking at Ji Yanning are a little complicated.
Ji Yanning was told by her, then frowned, groaned for a while, and said: "I finally found out that something is wrong, there seem to be few women in this town." ”
Jinhe, who was in the area, asked, "Could it be that there is a case of a woman being killed in this town?"
Rong Che said: "If there are many women who are killed, they should report to Dali Temple, and it doesn't look like it." ”
Jinhe said, "Then go down and check on the affairs of this town. ”
Ji Yanning bowed slightly, which could be regarded as acquiescence.
After dinner, the shopkeeper of Bao Chang Ji had already brought over what Ji Yanning wanted.
As Ji Yanning expected, it was not just a silk shop in Baochang Ji that had an accident.
There are not many silk shops in this town, there are only seven or eight in total, after all, there are not many people in this town, and not everyone makes clothes from time to time.
After these shops, three or four of them were like Po Cheong Kee, making the goods perishable.
At the beginning, everyone still hid this secret, afraid that the reputation of this bad silk would spread, and the shop would not be able to make money anymore, but the shopkeeper of Bao Chang Ji explained the intention, and on the surface they wanted to check the people behind it together, and the other victimized shops let down their guard.
After a careful inspection, it was found that every place where the goods were stored had that small mark.
The shopkeeper asked, "If the eldest lady suspects that her peers are doing it, but there are several families in this town that have not suffered, and you can't tell who did it." ”
Ji Yanning looked at the list handed over by the shopkeeper, then looked up at him, and said, "Since the accident of our shops, which shop has benefited the most?"
The shopkeeper was asked by Ji Yanning, thought for a moment, but said without hesitation: "White Crane Hall." ”
After Ji Yanning's little bit, he naturally saw a little greasy.
The strength of these shops that were taken off was not much different from that of Baihetang, and even far more prosperous than Baihetang, and those remaining shops were not too competitive for it.
As long as you take it seriously, you will find that these shops can't do business, and it is Baihetang that will benefit in the end.
"But we don't have proof. Although the shopkeeper believed Ji Yanning's words, there was no evidence, and they couldn't just report to the official, which was really embarrassing.
Ji Yanning's face was calm: "It's okay, since there is no evidence, let's let them show their feet, and then bring in some goods, as well as other shops, let them buy normally." ”
Although the shopkeeper was a little suspicious, he looked at Ji Yanning's confident appearance, and then did what she said.
Ji Yanning carried the medicinal herbs he had captured, and then walked back to the side house not far away.
She had been in her room for more than two hours, and had not been disturbed, but the night was already dark, and the lights in her side room were still on.
Rong Che was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard, playing alone, facing the room where Ji Yanning was, looking at her shadow reflected from the room, seeing that she was still busy, but he didn't go in to disturb.
When it was about time, Ji Yanning reached out and rubbed his sour neck.
"Yuan Wu. Ji Yanning called.
Yuan Wu pushed the door in, walked in front of Ji Yanning, and arched his hand: "What does the eldest lady command?"
Ji Yanning threw the small bottle in his hand to him.
Yuan Wu stretched out his hand and grabbed the small medicine bottle.
Ji Yanning said: "Go to the warehouse of the White Crane Hall and put one of these pills in each box. ”
Yuan Wu bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”
Ji Yanning asked him to go down and get things done as soon as possible.
Let them make up their minds on the head of Bao Changji, and let them know what it means to lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot, and return this trick to Baihetang as it is.
