If every bit of gaze is a star, then at this moment, Ah Qiu's body is a river of stars.

Frightened and flustered, she looked around, then suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, plucked up the courage to say: "It was the lower officials who colluded with Tang Sijiao to try to embezzle the treasury silver. However, when the matter was revealed, she threw the guilt on to the subordinate alone! ”

The scene was boiling for a while!

I immediately looked at my aunt, and there was the word "gratified" in her subtle expression.

Qin Fengyi shouted loudly: "Silence! ”

The crowd quieted down.

Concubine Niangniang raised her eyebrows and sneered: "Oh? Then Yan Si said to me, where did the two of you hide the embezzled treasury silver? ”

Ah Qiu had never been so strong, and I saw that she said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Tang Sijiao is the mastermind, and the subordinate is just an accomplice." As for the whereabouts of the silver taels, she told the lower officials that after trying to exchange them for ordinary official silver, she would share the spoils with the lower officials. ”

Concubine Shu grinned and looked away from her: "Tang Sijiao, can you tell the difference?" ”

Tang Sijiao nodded quickly: "Yes, yes!" This Yan Aqiu is purely slandering and biting the lower officials! Now, Xia Guan has to say that since there was a problem with the treasury silver, Xia Guan also wrote to Gong Zhengsi. Therefore, Lord Si Zheng has been secretly investigating this matter for a long time, and it is reported that the news has been found. ”

Concubine Shu nodded: "Where is Yang Sizheng?" ”

Then one of the crowd came out, wearing a straight green robe, kneeling down and saying, "The lower official is here." Qi Shufei Niangniang, Tang Si's account is true, after being visited by the lower officials, in an upper room in Tianfu Building in Dongshi, five hundred and sixty taels of silver were found. ”

"The silver is engraved with the words "Shaofu Supervisor", from this point of view, this should be the shortage of five hundred and sixty taels of silver in the internal bureau."

I sneered and worried, what a. The seemingly inconspicuous beginning has now been torn out of a big hole.

Lin Zuosi spoke: "Then what is the relationship between Fulou and Yan Si's account on this day?" Why was the treasury silver seized in Tianfu Building? ”

The timing of her questions is always just right.

Yang Sizheng's eyes moved under the lowered eyelids, and he said preparedly: "After Jin Wuwei came to report, Fulou has nothing to do with Yan Si's account this day. But ——, was implicated with Sunes. ”

It's time to come or it's coming, and it's finally on point!

But I knew about this in advance through Xue Moyun's mouth and reported it to my aunt, she should be on guard!

At the same time, my mind was already flashing and I was thinking about how to save my aunt......

Concubine Shu rebuked in a surprised tone: "Bold! Master Neisi, how can you be slandered! ”

That Yang Sizheng said: "The lower officials don't dare. It so happened that Gong Zhengji received a secret letter reporting another ugly thing. Therefore, this is the Tianfu Building! Unexpectedly, he unintentionally pulled out the case of the treasury silver. ”

Lin Zuosi snapped: "What's the ugly thing? Don't spit out! ”

Yang Sizheng paused, seemed to hesitate, but still made up his mind and said: "The secret letter is here, please concubine Niangniang, all the adults read it for yourself." ”

The palace maid presented the letterhead she had taken out of her bosom to the concubine.

Concubine Shu glanced at it a few times, then handed the letter to her aunt, and said with her aunt's expression: "Suneisi, you come and see?" ”

The aunt took it with both hands, and after reading the letter with a calm face, she got up and knelt beside Concubine Shu.

When I saw my aunt kneeling, I clenched my teeth with tears in my eyes, and I wanted to rush forward and chew them as candy men!

The aunt frowned and said, "Concubine Shu, please Rong Chen slowly distinguish." ”

Concubine Shu immediately went to help her aunt and said with a smirk: "Suneisi doesn't have to be like this, stand up and say." ”

Then the conversation changed: "However, if you can't prove your innocence today, under the rule of this palace, you will definitely not tolerate those who act arbitrarily in such a high position!" ”

My aunt stood up and asked Yang Sizheng, "Where is the seized silver tael?" You might as well confront it in court. ”

Yang Sizheng then ordered someone to carry up the two large boxes of silver, and when he lifted the lid, the snowflakes were shining brightly!

My aunt said loudly: "Since it means that this batch of silver taels was found in the room of this official in Tianfuju, whether it is made by Shaofu still needs to be verified." ”

"Come on, Xuan two Shaofu Cheng."

I was glad that my aunt was really on guard.

Shaofu Cheng should have been waiting early in the morning, and he came to the court very quickly and checked the silver two as instructed.

Check them one by one, extremely meticulous. And the silver which had been examined was set aside in two heaps. No one knew why.

After the inspection, one of the young mansions saluted and said: "Qi Yu Concubine Niangniang, Lord Neisi." Of the five hundred and sixty taels, three hundred taels were really made by the Shaofu. the other two hundred and sixty taels are forgeries. ”

The crowd began to whisper again.

My aunt nodded: "Please rest for the time being." ”

Then he turned to Concubine Shu and said, "Niangniang, these two hundred and sixty taels of fakes were originally the batch returned to Shaofu by the Internal Affairs Bureau. Originally, in order to investigate the case of the treasury silver, the minister was specially transferred from Shaofu. Unexpectedly, he accidentally hit and was searched by Jin Wuwei. ”

Shufei, Lin Zuosi, Yang Sizheng, Tang Sijiao. Their faces changed a little, not as smug as they had just been.

Shufei nodded with a smile: "Then what about the remaining three hundred taels?" What does Suneji explain. ”

Aunt Changliang said: "The remaining three hundred taels are indeed spent by the ministers from the account office, and they are indeed used to purchase chilblain cream. ”

"It's just that the minister took a leave of absence, and it took some time to delay the account room to get the receipt. Because of this, he mistakenly believed that the minister had embezzled this batch of treasury silver. ”

My aunt looked up: "Someone, take out all the ointments stored in the material room." ”

It turned out that the skin cream brought back from Orphan Girl Ridge Village was to fill this hole......

Concubine Shu's eyebrows were crooked, and she looked at a large pile of white porcelain box paste, gritting her teeth and taking one to check.

The aunt added: "Yu Niangniang, this medicine is called "Skin Cream", the ingredients are rare, and the effect is very good. In addition to treating chilblains, it is also effective for boils and red wounds. It is used to smear the wound, and it is less likely to infect the ulcer if it is stained with raw water. ”

Lin Zuosi began to laugh with him: "Ah, this...... The adults are really meticulous, and the purchase of a salve for the palace maids is also so thoughtful. ”

Concubine Shu put the porcelain box in her hand back on the tray.

My aunt ordered, "Withdraw first." After the meeting was dismissed, it was distributed to the heads of the palaces. ”

"Yes, sir." The palace maids carrying large boxes and small boxes replied in unison.

Concubine Shu looked at Ah Qiu, who was kneeling on the ground: "Suneisi, why is Yan Aqiu's answer not consistent with yours?" ”

The aunt replied, "This child is not suitable for this errand, and it is difficult to do it in every way." Therefore, there is a mistake in the accounting room, and in today's situation, I am afraid that I will not be in a hurry to say anything. After the meeting was dismissed, the minister removed her from her post and was sure to be punished. ”

Phew————

I sighed in my heart, it turned out that my aunt knew completely that Ah Qiu was not dealing with the accounting.

From the time Ah Qiu was transferred to the account room to the present, how big of a game of chess has my aunt played......

At this juncture, a eunuch trotted close to report: "Qi Yu Shufei Niangniang, Mrs. Xie Zhang's "Xie Zhang" asks to see you." ”

General Xie Tian's wife came......

Concubine Shu's brows twitched, with surprise: "Xuan." ”

Then the dress, dressed neatly, came elegantly, fluttering down: "Lady Niang Wanfu, the courtiers have greeted you." ”

Concubine Shu asked, "Mrs. Xie, why did you enter the palace at this time, but there is something urgent?" ”

Mrs. Xie was generous: "Niangniang, the courtiers are indeed in a hurry." Recently, I have heard some noises, saying that Suneisi has a close relationship with her husband and often goes in and out of Tianfu Lou for private meetings. ”

Concubine Shu smiled on her face: "It turns out that Madame also heard about it, but today she came to ask the palace to be the master with you?" ”

Mrs. Xie smiled politely: "Niangniang misunderstood." This matter is related to the reputation of the husband, and the courtiers came to clarify it on purpose. ”

"Suneisi and her husband have known each other since they were children. The two have always been friends, and they can be described as brothers and sisters with different surnames. ”

"As for why the two of them went in and out of Tianfu Building together, this is because the owners behind Tianfu Building are actually my husband and wife and Suneisi."

"This ......", the crowd turned their heads one after another, and the people on the circle chairs also looked at each other.

Mrs. Xie continued: "The courtiers are not good at management, and they have always been taken care of by the husband and the Suneisi. Now, taking care of their own business has attracted gossip, but the courtiers don't know where justice is! ”

Yang Sizheng asked: "Mrs. Xie, the lower officials have inquired, and the record of Tianfu Lou in the yamen is not filled in by the names of several people!" ”

Mrs. Xie said with a smile: "This lord may have been in the palace for a long time, and he knows less about the situation outside. This official eunuch family does business, and the shopkeepers on the surface are all cronies, housekeepers, relatives, etc. The first is to avoid revealing the rumors and making the guest officials feel that the store is a big bully, and the second is to avoid some trouble. ”

"The name is not registered. But on the title deed and the house deed, there is a "private seal" between my wife and Mr. Su. Do you still need to verify it? ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Xie took out the deed paper from her sleeve.

Concubine Shu's face couldn't hold back for a long time, but she said coldly: "That's it! It turned out to be just a misunderstanding. ”

The aunt sneered: "Niangniang, can the minister's innocence be proven?" ”

Concubine Shu nodded and reached out to take her aunt's hand: "Suneisi, this palace is also Wei Ji's heart, I have wronged you today." ”

Lin Zuosi's face changed again, and he scolded the steps: "Yang Sizheng, Tang Sijiao, you are so bold!" Before the matter was clarified, he dared to blame Master Su! ”

Tang Si's account was already in decline, kowtowing to the ground, and shouting injustice in his mouth.

My aunt said solemnly: "Wronged? Today's framing of the official, the corruption of the treasury bank, and the responsibility of the Tang account, can be said to be inescapable! ”

As soon as my aunt's words fell, a group of eunuchs came in line, all holding large and small cloth bags in their hands.

The leader came to report: "Qisu Neisi, the minions searched five large and small bags in Tang Si's room two quarters of an hour ago. When I opened it, it was two hundred and sixty taels. ”

"It has been tested, and they are all produced by Shaofu!"

The aunt turned to the concubine and saluted: "Niangniang, the minister has found the last shortage of two hundred and sixty taels." ”

Concubine Shu stared at Tang Sijiao, gritted her teeth, and shook her head.

On the ground, she climbed forward with her hands and feet, and kowtowed to Concubine Shu: "Niangniang save me!" Mother, save me! Xia Guan didn't have it, I didn't hide the silver! ”

Concubine Shu's face was cloudy, and she stood up awkwardly: "Suneisi, since it has been revealed, how to punish this, you will deal with it impartially." Hongu is in your hands. Back to the palace! ”

Tang Sijiao began to howl: "Niangniang! You can't leave me alone! Empress!! ”

Concubine Shu shook her sleeves and walked two steps, and when she saw Mrs. Xie on the side, she reluctantly smiled: "Mrs. Xie hasn't seen you for a long time, since you have entered the palace today, then let's talk about it in the Xiangxiang Palace, right?"

Mrs. Xie replied gently: "It is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

So, the two of them left first.

Today's concubine can be said to have come in a hurry and returned in defeat.
