Chapter 393: Speculation

Hearing this, Xiao Ciyu couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

He didn't nod or veto King Jinyang's request for the first time, but took the lead in asking a question that had been bothering him: "Where was your person last night?" ”

"Minister..."King Jinyang didn't expect him to ask like this, and he was speechless for a while.

Xiao Ciyu's eyes were full of calm, and seeing that he couldn't answer, he immediately changed his question: "Before, didn't you come to tell me that the matter might be related to the disaster relief money?" Surely you know that the money is disbursed for your best opportunity to investigate? ”

King Jinyang stiffened his jaw: "Yes, the minister understands..."

"Understood?" Xiao Ciyu raised her eyebrows, "Then what were you doing last night?" ”

"Minister..."King Jinyang pursed his lips, showing a trace of embarrassment, "There should be no problem for the minister to transfer the silver, so I planned to go to the household department today and ask Shangshu to send someone to help the minister investigate." ”

"You can really do it, such an urgent matter will have to wait until daytime." Xiao Ciyu pursed the corners of his mouth, revealing a touch of sarcasm.

After King Jinyang admitted his mistake repeatedly, he closed his eyes and waved his hand: "That's it, I won't pursue the responsibility in the past." After that, you can check it with You Aiqing. Strive for it, and make up for it. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Hearing this, King Jinyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that he was relieved, Xiao Ciyu's eyes suddenly added a little deep meaning.

Fang Cai, although King Jinyang's performance was very in line with his image, and there was no unreasonable big problem, he still saw that he was lying!

Dealing with the Dong family has always been on his mind, and before, several times when he ignored the case, it was King Jinyang himself who took the initiative to stand up and ask for the case to continue to investigate.

How could such a positive person suddenly slack off yesterday? And, the corresponding solution that I came up with was actually just to go to the household department today to investigate?

There is no targeted method at all, and it is almost perfunctory to go through the motions. If you want it to happen, it's impossible!

So this method must be made up on an ad hoc basis!

Because I didn't expect him to ask this question suddenly, I made up a method full of loopholes.

Xiao Ciyu smiled silently: "Regarding Chen Ke's matter, do you Aiqing have any other proposals?" ”

While casually asking a question, the corner of his eye also aimed in the direction of King Jinyang.

The King of Jinyang, who had just been listed, hung his head honestly and did not react at all.

Originally, the method of making up was equivalent to nothing, and he didn't seem to have any plans for the future.

So, the real solution was laid out yesterday, right?

It's just that he was not on the scene yesterday, how can he control the direction of things?

Unless...

Thinking of this, a bold guess suddenly took shape in Xiao Ciyu's mind.

If this speculation is used as a reason, then whether it is King Jinyang's behavior, Dong Haochen's reaction, or even Chen Ke's behavior, it all makes sense!

While secretly hiding the speculation in his heart, Xiao Ciyu also knocked on the armrest of the dragon chair with his fingers: "Since you Aiqing has no intention of talking about this matter with me, let's talk about other things."

"This year, many displaced people have not yet been resettled, so the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is just a big one, and there is no need to hold a big event. As for the queen mother's return to the palace next month, the Ministry of Rites..."

Big and small things were confided in Xiao Ciyu's mouth, and the topic soon had nothing to do with yesterday's events.
