Chapter 333: The Secret of the Account Book
When the partition wall was demolished by the officers and soldiers brought by Zhao Jing, the gold bricks that had been built in the middle of the wall were revealed.
Large chunks were grabbed and placed in the courtyard, glowing golden in the sun's rays.
Qi Yunshu only glanced at it, and was so blinded by the flashing light that he couldn't open his eyes.
I was amazed in my heart, and I didn't know how much profit Liu Pingzhong had gained, and they didn't know how many boatmen on the Cao Yun had given their lives and how many unmarried girls in the villages along the river had to get it!
As soon as they hollowed out the wall, Luo immediately targeted Zhao Jing and asked him to find her child before it got dark.
Zhao Jing smiled faintly and said that the child had been found, and he would send it back immediately after the matter was over.
After the gold bricks were loaded, Zhao Jing asked Liu Zhibai to pull out the children he had taken away and handed them over to Luo's.
"You...... You, it turned out to be you......" Luo's is not stupid, at this time he already fully understands that this scene is all Zhao Jing playing.
What Liu Pingzhong deliberately dragged his son into the water in order to retaliate for poisoning his son, and what did he know about her and her brother......
Even if he had known about it, he would have been arrested a long time ago, what could he do?
Luo knew that he had been deceived, so he watched the fire greatly, pointing at Zhao Jing and scolding him for being treacherous and hateful.
"Hmph, what kind of good thing do you think you are, if it weren't for He Guanzheng being arrested, his mouth is hard, and there is no way to prove you, do you think you can get a good go?" Jia Meifang couldn't wait to eat her alive.
It's a pity that in the face of Zhao Jing and the officers and soldiers under him, she didn't dare.
And compared to Luo's, if you look at her carefully, she may not be clean, so at this time, you should keep a low profile, otherwise the gold brick wall at home will not be able to be kept sooner or later!
Qi Yunshu saw that Jia Meifang obviously had the upper hand, but she rarely did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, but lowered her head and pondered, and immediately understood what she was thinking at this time after only thinking about it in her heart.
It's not that she doesn't want to, she's afraid that she doesn't dare!
Zhao Jing covered his eyes and waved his hand: "Thank you Mrs. Jia for this trip, please go back!" ”
Jia Meifang was like being amnestied, and she didn't care about beating the water dog to Luo's, so she left with her legs, lest she go slowly, and Zhao Jing asked people to leave her behind!
Qi Yunshu whispered: "This is equivalent to a total of 200,000 taels of silver, and I'm afraid it's only a lot more than the Jia family!" ”
And looking at Jia Meifang's flustered appearance, she probably even hid the gold bricks in the same way.
"She has already withdrawn 100,000 taels of silver in advance, and we don't know if we haven't searched for the rest!" Zhao Jing said.
Qi Yunshu immediately understood, I am afraid that Zhao Jing had already reached a tacit understanding with Jia Meifang.
No wonder a mercenary person like Jia Meifang would come over to help Zhao Jing perform this scene!
One is to take revenge on Luo's, and the other is also a means of self-help!
Qi Yunshu looked at Zhao Jing, his long body was jade, and the sunlight hit his side face obliquely, lining his face more and more three-dimensional and handsome.
But I don't know why looking at him like this, she faintly feels a little strange, for this officialdom, he adapts too quickly!
Zhao Jing saw that her face changed slightly, and he didn't know what she was thinking, but there were some deep-seated things that were not easy to explain at this time, so he took out a ledger with black letters on a blue background from his arms and stuffed it into her hand:
"I know that the lady knows a lot about business, I think she can read the account book, so it's better to show me how tired it is!"
Qi Yunshu was a little panicked in his heart about how easily he let go of tracking down Jia Mei's stolen silver, but seeing that his face was so serious, thinking that this account book should be very important, he endured the unhappiness in his heart and took it.
I don't know if I don't look at it, I was startled when I saw it, Qi Yunshu only flipped it slightly, then approached Zhao Jing and asked a little nervously: "Is the thing recorded on this real?" Who gave it to you? ”
Zhao Jing pointed to the position where Jia Meifang had just stood.
It's her!
Qi Yunshu's heart tightened.
Zhao nodded: "She is an understanding person, and when she saw Liu Pingzhong being arrested, she knew that she couldn't escape by virtue of the relationship between the two of them, so she exchanged two account books for her freedom."
I agreed, and she promised that she had never participated in these pickled things, and that she would naturally return her freedom!
This also means that he can no longer shoot at her casually, Qi Yunshu only then understood Zhao Jing's intentions, and concentrated on reading a few books, only to see that the records on them were very clear and clear, the officials involved, the amount, and the source of the stolen money.
But the flow is a big problem, but there is no such thing.
"It's only half here, and where is the other one you just mentioned?" There are several places where the destination is not clearly written.
Zhao Jing didn't answer directly, but suddenly grabbed her hand and touched his chest, Qi Yunshu's hand was close to his chest, and he only felt the hot and soaring body temperature, as well as the beating and powerful heart.
Qi Yunshu's face turned red in an instant, and she struggled to take it out, but saw Zhao Jing smile strangely: "What is the lady thinking, I let you touch what's inside, not for you...... Blind touching. ”
He felt the lady's soft and slender fingers touch his chest, bringing out a shiver.
This kind of touch is not bad, but at this time, there are still outsiders around, of course he can't mess around, hold down Qi Yunshu's slender hand, and lead her to the place where he is hiding in his arms with her palm.
Qi Yunshu touched a hard object with a touch, she measured its shape with her fingers, and found that it was a book.
She suddenly understood in her heart, and blinked her eyes to Zhao Jing for confirmation: "This is the other half?" Zhao nodded.
"Mrs. Jia said that this book is very important, let's go back to the post house and read it again!" Otherwise, he was afraid that the movement would be too big, and it would not end well.
Qi Yunshu nodded, watching the cart of gold bricks being secretly transported away by the carriage wrapped in black tarpaulin, and she and Zhao Jing also returned to the post house smoothly.
The Third Prince was already waiting in Zhao Jing's room with the guard Gundam, and when he saw them returning, he stretched out his hand to him.
Qi Yunshu was still a little hesitant, but Zhao Jing had already taken out two account books from his arms, and after a little discrimination, one was handed over to the third prince and one was given to Qi Yunshu.
Qi Yunshu had long been very curious, two million in circulation in silver, she wanted to know where it went!
Just after turning the page, she was stunned, turned back with bated breath, and after reading it, she said to Zhao Jing's doubts: "Yes, it's the fourth prince......" Her breathing was unsteady, her breath couldn't be condensed, and her voice sounded as if she was trembling.
"Sure enough, I heard that the fourth child has done a lot of things here in Chuzhou, so I guessed that he would participate in it and make a profit, but I didn't expect that he had a lot of appetite, and he actually swallowed two million taels of silver alone!" You must know that the net income of the national treasury of Daliang is only 8 million taels a year.
If there is a year of famine and a major flood and drought for ten days and half a month, a lot of disaster relief money will be allocated.
Especially when there is a war, the net income of a year is not enough for military expenditure, and the fourth child alone accounts for a quarter!
If he really saves for a few years, it is unknown to say that he is rich and rivals the country!
"The fourth prince has a bad reputation in the capital, he has always lived in a simple place, except for some debauchery on weekdays, his life is not luxurious, and he occasionally goes out of the palace with the second prince, and he acts very low-key, if it weren't for this black and white paper, the pen and pen records are clear, I'm afraid even I don't believe it!"
Zhao Jing asked himself that Zhao Yu and Zhao Yu maintained and managed the intelligence network for him, and he still knew a lot about some of the leading figures in the capital, but now it seems that the foundation of the four princes is very deep, and what he once knew about him was just a peep in a penny.
The third prince also sighed: "It's a pity that he can't get the account book that belongs to the specific flow of these two million taels of silver, otherwise he can know where he used them!" ”
Qi Yunshu didn't care much: "The geese have left a sound, the shadow has left traces, as long as he has done something, he can always find out!" ”
I can't find it now, it's just because they have just found out, and they haven't sent people to investigate.
Now as long as you check along this general direction, you can always find it, but it's just a matter of time!
Qi Yunshu's words made Zhao Jing, who was a little disappointed, and the third prince who was sluggish suddenly cheered up after hearing it.
"My brother and sister are right, as long as he has done it, as long as we want to check, there is nothing that we can't find!" The third prince was happy, holding the account book and saying that even if they couldn't find it for a while, they would take it back to the capital and hand it over to the emperor, and he would definitely be able to find it with the brocade guard in his hand!
"No! Third master, the things in this are enough for Ning Yushi to get rid of suspicion, and the official is reinstated, and it is enough for me to make a difference. As soon as the third prince's voice fell, Zhao Jing, who had always been with him, actually refused:
"The content in this book is too shocking, if you take it out at this time, I'm afraid the fluctuations will be great, seeing that the emperor's birthday is imminent, I'm afraid I don't want to see such a thing happen for the time being!"
Zhao Jing said it reasonably, even Qi Yunshu, who didn't understand politics and governance, probably understood.
He proceeded from the standpoint of all people, and also to achieve certain political and political goals.
"But my father's brocade guard is not a vegetarian, if they find this account book first, I'm afraid they will cure you for the crime of ineffective handling of the case!" Although the third prince wanted to bring down the fourth prince, his heart was for Zhao Jing's sake!
"As far as you and I know, even Jia Shi handed it to me with a locked box, she knew very well in her heart that she was going to jump out of this muddy water, and she didn't dare to get involved in this matter casually.
So we just need Liu Pingzhong, who recorded this account book, not to talk nonsense! And now he doesn't know we've got the ledger! ”
So as long as they keep their mouths shut, the matter will not spread.
"But keep it...... Alas, I always feel uneasy! "The third prince is not good at dealing with this, he just says his feelings.
Zhao Jing was full of confidence: "We won't keep it for too long!" "Since the fourth prince dares to do such a thing, it shows that he is a wolf, his heart is higher than the sky, and I believe that there will be action soon!
As long as he dares to move, he will show flaws!
"The fourth child followed the second child, will there be a second child in this matter?" The third prince ordered a cup of tea.
Zhao Jing's eyes lit up, but he thought that the reason why he was tossed over was all the second prince's pot, if this was the case, wouldn't he be beating his mouth, although he really wanted him to have something to do with this case, but he still shook his head in a realistic manner:
"Probably not!"
"Fourth, fourth, I can't see it!" The third prince made a thumping sound while holding the tea cup, and his eyes were so neat, he seemed to think it was very funny!
