Chapter 30: Leaving a Trace
Song Nian sighed and asked, "Second Young Master, then may I ask, who hid these valuable gold coins in the fire kang in this room?" ”
"Yes...... Be......! ”
Wang Shoucai suddenly shut up and stopped talking.
Song Nian circled around Wang Shoucai and suddenly said, "I know...... It's not you, right? ”
Wang Shoucai remained silent.
Song Nian smiled: "All the evidence points to you, so ...... It doesn't have to be you. ”
Wang Shoucai glanced at Song Nian, but still didn't say anything.
Song Nian smiled: "Then do you want to know, who is it, when you are asleep, secretly hide these gold bills here?" ”
"I don't know, last night, I really fell asleep." Wang Shoucai seems to have changed as a different person, and he doesn't say whether he lives or dies.
Song Nian said lightly: "Since you don't want to say it, then this case ...... It's going to be you going to carry it. ”
Wang Shoucai was still silent, and let Zhao Da and others handcuff him.
Governor Li leaned over and said with a smile: "How does Master Song know that there are things hidden in this fire kang?" ”
Song Nian smiled: "When I came yesterday, the house was quite clean, but just now I checked the wooden box on the ground...... It was found that there was soot remaining. Generally, only after the flue of the fire kang has been moved, there is soot. ”
Governor Li nodded again and again, and praised: "Lord Song is really meticulous. ”
Then he continued, "But...... This Xiaomei is also suspicious. ”
Song Nian smiled and said, "Xiaomei...... Unlikely. ”
Governor Li was curious: "Why?" ”
Song Nian said lightly: "Because...... Xiaomei, not worthy of the second young master of the Wang family, the heir of the Wang family, to top the cylinder. ”
"You mean?" Governor Li frowned.
Song Nian said lightly: "That's right, it's the old lady of the Wang family." He is the only one who can plot against these Hu people and frame his grandson. ”
Governor Li was a little incredulous: "This is ...... Why? Wang Shoucai is the person he personally appointed to inherit the Wang family. ”
Song Nian smiled: "I also want to know why...... However, eight or nine is not far from ten. ”
Holding Wang Shoucai, and then coming to the old man Wang, the old man Wang's face was pale.
"People, you have been arrested, let's go, let's go, I will show the saint about this matter!" Old Man Wang said angrily.
Governor Li hurriedly laughed and said: "The old man is angry, angry, this matter, maybe it will turn around again......"
Song Nian smiled and said lightly: "There is no turnaround." ”
Governor Li was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and said, "Master Song, I think it's almost ......."
Chu He said loudly: "Master Song is right, there is no turnaround. ”
Governor Li suddenly hesitated: "Lord Chu, why do you have to make such a fuss......
Chu He said lightly: "Governor Li, do things, don't do things at both ends." Wang Jia...... With my Chu family, you can only choose one side. ”
Governor Li smiled bitterly: "I only choose the Holy One." ”
Chu He said lightly: "I'm out of Beijing...... but by the will of God. ”
Governor Li hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "Lord Chu, what do you want?" ”
Chu He smiled, looked at Mrs. Wang, and said loudly: "Mrs. Wang, I'm sorry, today, we are going to investigate the Wang family's use of banned drugs and the sale of banned drugs!" ”
When the old lady Wang heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "It turns out ...... Last night...... It's you! ”
Chu He said lightly: "That's right, otherwise, how can you catch your Wang family secretly hiding, selling and smoking forbidden drugs!" ”
"Good! Good! Come! The old lady Wang shouted peace, and immediately hundreds of servants surrounded her.
Chu He smiled.
Old lady Wang waved her hand: "Don't do it." ”
Then, he stood up and said slowly: "If you want to check, then check, I, a bad old man, can't stop you." ”
As she spoke, Old Lady Wang's eyes suddenly became sharp, sweeping across the Chu River, Governor Li's Mansion, and Song Nian.
"But...... Remember, today you have insulted my king's house...... In the future, there will be a great reward! ”
Governor Li said anxiously: "Old lady...... I...... That's not what I meant......"
But he didn't let the officials behind him obediently withdraw.
Old lady Wang snorted, but didn't say anything else.
The old servant stepped forward, bowed down and said, "Adults, please feel free to check what you want." ”
Song Nian was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Chu He.
It's that easy? Could it be ......
Sure enough, I went straight to the high wall I found last night, and the iron door was locked.
Open the iron door. Inside, it's empty.
There are no children of the Wang family who have been imprisoned.
Even the iron gates and railings were removed cleanly.
Song Nian looked at the inside of the empty wall that had been demolished, and asked the old servant, "What was it used for here?" ”
The old servant replied respectfully: "This was originally a place to punish thieves who like to steal finances, but my old lady is merciful, so this place is abandoned. ”
"Hehe, your old lady, she is indeed thoughtful." Song Nian glanced around, and the handling was really clean.
"A few people, what else to check, please."
Song Nian said lightly: "Is it okay to check the treasury?" ”
The old servant actually said, "Yes, as long as Lord Chu wants to check, he can check." ”
Song Nian was stunned for a moment, but still said, "Then please trouble you and open the warehouse next to you." ”
Next to this high wall is a storehouse for opioids and exotic medicines.
The old servant opened the door of the warehouse, and Song Nian walked in to take a look, and sure enough, it ...... Clean and slippery, nothing.
"This ...... Your royal family's treasury is really empty. Song Nian said.
"Back to Lord Song, our Wang family has always been bitter, and even this treasury has nothing to offer." The old servant replied solemnly.
Song Nian smiled and didn't say anything.
The clues, it seems, are all broken.
But Song Nian didn't care.
This royal family...... There are too many loopholes.
The decaying family has always been like this.
She walked out of the storeroom, looked around a few times, and suddenly, looked down at the ground, and smiled slightly.
"Master Song, what clues do you have?"
Song Nian smiled and pointed to the ground.
"Whoever walks by, will leave traces."
On the blue brick floor, occasionally, there are traces of red.
"...... this?" Governor Li didn't understand.
Song Nian said lightly: "This is ...... Rust. ”
"Rust?" Governor Li frowned.
Song Nian looked at the old servant: "This is ...... The shackles of the Wang family who were imprisoned here were rusted and dragged to the ground. Rubbing against the green bricks leaves such traces. ”
The old servant's face changed, and then he said, "Lord Song, we Wang family disciples never wear shackles. ”
Song Nian smiled: "Really? ”
Then he turned to Zhang Heiniu and Zhao Da and said, "Let's go, follow these rusts, find them for me!" ”
