"Father-in-law." Zheng Wan's face was very ugly. glanced at Feng Zixuan. Hurried to Zheng Shengdong's side.

"General." The servants in the house came in a panic.

Zheng Shengdong didn't speak, just waved his hand.

He did things immediately, and there was a corpse on the ground in front of him, covered with a white cloth at will. He lifted the cloth, and inside was a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears. Garlic and ginger are mashed and mixed with vinegar and kneaded on a cloth, and then the mouth and nose are covered to ward off the smell of corpses and epidemics. I opened the small package on my side, took out a knife, a small hammer, a small awl and other tools and checked the day. "General. Lord Zhu should have died two days ago. He was not poisoned, but was slashed eighteen times with a sharp weapon, the most deadly being the one in the chest. ”

"Yes. Come on, bury it. The matter was reported to the imperial court. Zheng Shengdong glanced at Zheng Wan, "Come in." With that, he turned and walked back to the study.

"Pingxin found it near Yundu."

"Brother found it? Yundu, it won't be that Zhu Zhiqing and Liang Chu have colluded. Zheng Wan was slightly surprised. Liang Chu is a scourge after all. ”

"Ping Xin has checked, the sharp weapon should be a big knife, an ordinary big knife, but the person who makes the knife is unusual, he is a master, and the knife costs people's lives. His money was all gone, and he didn't leave anything suspicious with him, and he looked like he had been robbed. But Cao Kou will not have such a high level of martial arts cultivation, and it is too clean, which makes people suspicious. ”

"That's why it's killing people." Zheng Wan couldn't help but smile shamefully, "He probably didn't expect that it was his comrade who killed him in the end." ”

"This incident happened, but it tells us that the people behind this are not simple."

"I'll keep an eye on that."

"The letter said that Su Qin and Lu Tingxuan would arrive soon."

"That's great. There are simply not enough people here. I have rewarded many people for their help. There is also the matter of the Cheng family's rice shop, they have not sold rice recently, but we have no chance to smelt them. I thought that if they raised the price, I would arrest them for stealing, but they were smart. However, I found that the ledger in the Xining Governor's Mansion was very problematic. Daqin has always implemented a standing liquidation system, and grain will be stored in a fixed amount every year. It stands to reason that although there is a famine here, it is necessary to release the warehouse for disaster relief. But the amount of food in the governor's mansion is not matched, and the difference is very large. Moreover, the person who complained before said that Zhu Zhiqing did not do much to help the disaster. The whereabouts of the grain in this closed warehouse are doubtful. Food is not a valuable treasure of gold and silver, and who would fight this idea? Last night, I asked Feng Zixuan to go to the rice shops in the city to check. There was a surprise. ”

"Cheng's rice shop?" Zheng Shengdong looked at Zheng Wan.

Zheng Wan nodded heavily. "Exactly. The rice that was supposed to be in the Governor's Mansion was just put in their warehouse. Early this morning, I went to Cheng's house. I had a good discussion with the Cheng family. We bought the rice at the original market price, and then distributed it to the people in the city every day in the name of the government and the Cheng family. Father, do you think this is still possible? ”

"Yes. Let it be settled. Zheng Shengdong did not object, and he could not offend the second prince easily, which could be regarded as selling face to the Liu family.

My father-in-law agreed, and I replied. Father-in-law, is there anything else? ”

"You can get busy."

"No." Zheng Wan bowed and retired.
