Chapter 669: The Fat Fish Takes the Bait
Sure enough, Zhuang Siyan was successfully found there.
When Ling Tiancheng got closer, he found that they were playing the backgammon that day that Zhuang Siyan said.
Zhuang Siyan was fine, and directly turned his smiling face to Ling Tiancheng's body and asked him, "Why are you here?" Are you cured? ”
Ling Tiancheng gritted his teeth, and the masseter muscles on his face tightened with his movements.
But the daughter-in-law is reluctant, so let's beat Tang Geng.
Tang Geng didn't say a word, got up and slipped outside.
However, Zhuang Siyan jumped up: "Don't, don't fight outside, wait for a while." ”
If the queen doesn't intercede, he will suffer these twenty plates, and at most it will hurt a little.
But he really didn't dare to say a word now, especially afraid that he would open his mouth and make Ling Tiancheng even more angry.
There were two people inside, one was angry to death, and the other was smiling.
Ling Tiancheng: "......"
Zhuang Siyan pretended not to see his anger, and said to himself: "There is a movement over there in the silver treasury." ”
Zhuang Siyan waved his little hand in front of his eyes: "What's the matter, isn't it just that I haven't seen you for two days, just looking at me like this, is it that flowers have grown on my face?" ”
Thinking about what to say here, he took her hand and walked outside.
Tang Geng: "......"
The guards of Dali Temple also looked at each other, and for a while you looked at me, I looked at you, and I didn't know what to do.
But soon a report came from the gatehouse outside, saying that there was really a new movement on the side of the silver vault, and asked him what to do?
Meng Lifu, the head of the household, did not do it himself, but used his wife's maiden family.
In the whole treasury, from the entrance to the keeper of the silver, there is his inner response.
When the money is taken out, he will do things in the accounts, and the lost silver will be rationalized in his hands, and will not attract anyone's attention.
The amount of money they took out was small, and the accounts were easily smoothed.
Anyway, the queen can take the silver out of the treasury at will, and she takes it without accounting, very casually, a little more or less, and no one cares about it at all.
That Meng Lifu took advantage of the chaos at this time to move out the silver, part of it was smoothed out through the accounts, and the other part was recorded on Zhuang Siyan's head.
Everything is very good, the only thing that I didn't calculate is that Zhuang Siyan is more familiar than him in the matter of playing with the heart eye.
So I laid out the bureau a long time ago, and I waited for Meng Lifu to jump inside.
When Zhuang Siyan began to take out the silver from the silver vault, he also took out some of it, but it was not much, and the amount was probably similar to what Zhuang Siyan had moved out.
Mrs. Meng's maiden family is not in the capital, but in a small village outside the city, because it is close to the capital, that small village has not been too poor in the past two years.
The official silver didn't dare to use it for a while, and put it all in the cellar, waiting for further instructions from Meng Lifu.
According to Tang Geng's meaning, as far as the silver that Meng Lifu has stolen now, it is no problem to sentence him to beheading, it is better to arrest him here, and this matter can be ended as soon as possible.
Tang Geng had to ask: "Then what should I do?" ”
As long as he shows his head outside, the common people want to throw him with rotten vegetable leaves.
But Zhuang Siyan was not in a hurry to stop at all, and the old god was saying: "Wait for Meng Lifu to do it himself, we will catch it all." ”
This is true, although they all know that those people are so bold, all because of Meng Lifu's arrangement, but in the matter of stealing silver, he has never shown up.
In other words, even if someone really finds out about him in the future, he will be guilty of dereliction of duty at best.
Because in the entire household department, Jia Youshan is the number one, he is the second in command, if something really happens, the top must find the leader to settle accounts first, and he will be at the back.
There are not too many risks, but there are huge benefits, which sounds like a good thing, not to mention Meng Lifu, even Zhuang Siyan feels that if she is not the queen, she is not in this state, if she is a little poorer, maybe she will do it.
Zhuang Siyan really looked at him and smiled: "Really? You think I'm upright. ”
The two of them made a very careful plan, from Meng Lifu to the entire treasury, there were people stationed there to guard it.
But when they arrived, they found that it was the irrelevant people who stole the silver, and Meng Lifu was not among them.
The subordinate hurriedly replied: "Master Meng is not here, but our people saw him out of the city." ”
In fact, the money brought out by the relatives of the Meng family this time is not much, but they have done it back and forth several times, which adds up to a lot of money.
It stands to reason that it is not so easy to transport such a large amount of official silver out of the city, and there are guards at the city gate to inspect it, and once it is discovered, these people who carry the silver out must first be detained, and then they will be checked upwards from them, until they find out where the silver came from and who transported it.
The answer is already known, but it is just to lure out the culprit behind the scenes, and then convict him reasonably.
The group of people who stole the silver first turned into an alley, where they divided the silver into several parts and put them into the mezzanine of the coffin board and the mezzanine of the sedan chair.
And now the guards at the gate of the city have received secret orders, so they will not investigate it carefully, and they will soon let them go.
At the nearest junction, they met another group of people from the village.
Neither the people who left the city nor the people who came to the joint, there was no Meng Lifu.
