Manager Wang didn't wait for the main family to send him a silver ticket, and he didn't even bring him a word, and he was escorted back to Dali Temple in a daze.

The silver ticket could not be recovered, and the grain could not be recovered, so Lord Wang arranged for someone to raid the homes of the three grain shop shopkeepers and account offices.

As a result, only more than 80,000 taels of silver were recovered, but the loss of the Marquis of Wenchang Mansion was as high as more than 400,000 taels, which was too far away.

Shopkeeper Wang was reluctant to say, but among the other five people, someone would always give some clues.

The people of the Jingning Marquis Mansion did not have direct contact with them, and the people who contacted them were only the people under the Jingning Marquis Mansion, but they did not meet often, and the location was not fixed, they just handed over the silver taels regularly, and then made some profits from it.

What Mr. Wang knows now is that the main messenger behind him is powerful and powerful, his status may be very high, and the evidence has been destroyed very cleanly, if he wants to investigate deeply, it may be very difficult, and it may even be obstructed by the above, which is even more difficult.

After Feng Lanyu reported the case, she didn't go to Dali Temple to inquire about the progress of the case in the past two days, not because she didn't care, but because she completely trusted Lord Wang.

It's just that Lord Wang is also a little worried, because a few days have passed, and there is still no actual progress, except for the foreign grain merchant who was found at the beginning, none of the other grain merchants have been found, and they have not even been able to find out where the grain is.

I think they are very cautious and discreet when handling food.

Hundreds of thousands of stones of grain can be used to feed the army.

Lord Wang sighed in his heart.

After a few days, Feng Lanyu asked Jiang Hu to go to Dali Temple to ask about the progress of the case, and Jiang Hu came back and reported truthfully: "The whereabouts of the grain are unknown, and Lord Wang is investigating the grain merchants, but there has been no progress." ”

Jiang Hu said about the silver ticket again, but Feng Lanyu felt that the silver ticket was of little use, after all, it could not be proved that the silver ticket must have been sent by the Jingning Hou Mansion, even if it could be proved that it was sent by the Jingning Hou Mansion, people could also say that they received it from the shop, so it was pointless to check it down.

But Feng Lanyu felt that it was very unnecessary to check the grain merchants.

She said, "How could Lord Wang go to check on the grain merchants? ”

Jiang Hu didn't understand what the young lady meant, and said: "There is so much grain, only grain merchants will buy it." ”

After all, the amount of grain is large, and it is not easy to transfer, and the grain merchants have merchant ships and dart teams, so it will be convenient to measure and transport.

If it wasn't for selling it to grain merchants, Jiang Hu couldn't think of any way to get the grain away without realizing it.

Feng Lanyu shook his head and said, "That's wrong, how can you be sure that the one who has the ability to transport grain must be a grain merchant?" The army is also okay. ”

Jiang Hu looked at her in surprise: "Army? ”

Feng Lanyu smiled and said, "I'm just making an analogy." If the grain is transported out of the city, it needs to be released by the Terracotta Division, and if it is transferred from the upper part of the Zhuangzi, it will require a lot of manpower and chariots and horses, which are not something that ordinary people can do. ”

Jiang Hu was a little dazed.

Why do you have to check the Terracotta Division again?

However, when the young lady said this, there seemed to be some truth.

If this matter is really mixed with the Terracotta Division, then this matter will be a big deal!

If there is an army involved, there is only the Xiguan camp near the capital, but He Shizi, the commander of the Xiguan camp, is a small friendship with the prince, and He Houye is timid and afraid of things, and he has been alone for fear of causing trouble over the years, so it is unlikely that he will do such a thing.

Jiang Hu pondered, if there was really an army involved, then someone couldn't secretly raise troops near the capital, right?

This is a great sin of the Nine Clans!

There shouldn't be enough people to do such a thing.

Jiang Hu thought so, so he went out and went to Dali Temple to find Lord Wang and asked him to check the Soldiers and Horses.

When he went out and met Jiang Beiyu, Jiang Beiyu saw him coming out of Linhu Courtyard, and knew that it was Feng Lanyu looking for him, so he asked, "What did Madame let you do?" ”

Jiang Hu hurriedly explained the instructions of sealing the blue grapefruit carefully.

Jiang Beiyu raised his eyebrows, his wife said that he was going to cut down the Terracotta Division, it turned out to be true?

borrowed the case of the theft of his own grain store, so that Dali Temple had a reason to investigate, and the Terracotta Division did not dare not cooperate.

What's more, the loss of the grain store is serious, and the Soldiers and Horses Division is indeed to blame, whether this matter has anything to do with them or not, they have to bear a certain responsibility.

Jiang Beiyu said to Jiang Hu: "Don't leave yet, come to the study with me." ”

He handed over to Jiang Hu the clues about the shop theft case in the East and West Cities that he had investigated in the past few days, as well as the testimony of some merchants and ordinary people, and said to him: "By the way, give these things to Lord Wang, and let him check them carefully." ”

Jiang Hu received the order and immediately went to Dali Temple.

Jiang Beiyu went to the side courtyard, this time he was more self-aware, and stood at the door and asked people to go in and pass it on, so as not to bump into the embarrassing scene the previous few times.

When Xiaoli came out and invited him in, as soon as he entered the door, he saw his wife standing aside dressed neatly, and when he saw him come in, he said exaggeratedly: "Oh, the prince is here, it's really brilliant." ”

The corners of Jiang Beiyu's mouth twitched, he came over for dinner almost every day, and now Feng Lanyu said this purely to amuse him.

However, one thing I have to say is that after the unremitting behavior of the prince in the past two months, the relationship between the two is much more familiar, and there is no embarrassment and alienation when they got along at the beginning.

Feng Lanyu also occasionally joked with him, and the two of them could chat a few words when they were eating, this kind of progress was very good, at least the husband and wife should get along naturally and casually, instead of being like a stranger, who couldn't say two words for a long time.

Feng Lanyu looked at the time It was still early, and he didn't know what Jiang Beiyu was doing here.

Then he asked, "The prince came here at this time, but he has something to say?" ”

Jiang Beiyu came to the bamboo chair in the small courtyard and sat down, looked at Feng Lanyu, and said: "Yes, tomorrow is the sixtieth birthday of the old lady of Wang Shangshufu, and the invitation has been sent. ”

In fact, the invitation was sent a few days ago, but Jiang Beiyu was busy and forgot it for a while, it stands to reason that this invitation should be sent to the young lady, just because his mother has some relatives with Wang Shangshufu, and when he went out, he met the juniors of Wang Shangshufu, and he directly invited him verbally, and the invitation was sent later.

When he remembered this today, he specially came over to talk to Feng Lanyu.

Feng Lanyu sat opposite him, and when he heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and he was inexplicably a little excited inside: "Wang Shangshufu? That Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites? ”

Jiang Beiyu nodded.

I don't know what she's excited about, could it be that after coming to the capital, because she has been rejected by the ladies and ladies of other noble mansions, she has never participated in a similar banquet, so she is excited?

Jiang Beiyu thought that it would be this possibility, and couldn't help but feel a little pity in his heart, when his wife was the prince, he definitely couldn't be mixed like this, it seemed that he still had to take Feng Lanyu out for a walk, and he would lose it, thinking that those people knew his attitude, and they didn't dare to despise Feng Lanyu at will.

Feng Lanyu's heart is excitedly brushing the barrage, isn't that Wang Xinyue's maiden family? So tomorrow passes, Jiang Beiyu is finally going to reunite with his destined heroine Wang Xinyue!

After Jiang Beiyu came back, Wang Xinyue never came to the Marquis of Wenchang Mansion once, firstly, she was afraid of the old lady of the Marquis of Jingning's Mansion, and secondly, she was probably afraid of her sealing the blue grapefruit, after all, she said last time that she would charge three hundred taels for a meal.

So tomorrow's banquet, is there a good show?

Feng Lanyu was a little expectant, she looked at Jiang Beiyu encouragingly, with a good expression of the two brothers, patted Jiang Beiyu on the shoulder, and said, "Behave well tomorrow, I'm optimistic about you!" ”

Jiang Beiyu thought that Feng Lanyu was talking about giving her a long face or something in front of outsiders, he raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will." ”
