Zhuang Siyan listened to him trembling and laughed directly: "Okay, Lord He, this thief has stolen into the official mansion, I really want to ask you how to be an official?" ”

Master He just crawled on the ground, kowtowed vigorously and begged for mercy, and didn't dare to say a word.

Zhuang Siyan stood by himself for a while, still angry when he thought about it.

The amount of silver lost is a small matter, this thief can steal to the government, first, it shows that the government is not good, and second, it also shows that this thief is really bold.

There is also the possibility that someone may know what they are trying to do and deliberately wreak havoc behind their backs.

The latter one only swept through Zhuang Siyan's mind, and she didn't think deeply.

The main reason is that she doesn't want to make a subjective conclusion about something at the beginning, which will affect her normal judgment under normal circumstances.

She asked Master He to get up and asked, "Where did you put the money?" ”

Lord He hurriedly said: "Put it in Weichen's inner room, such a large amount of silver, Niangniang handed it to me, and I don't dare to move it, so I keep it carefully every day." ”

Zhuang Siyan asked again: "Apart from you, who else knows this silver?" ”

Lord He thought for a while, and said with some embarrassment: "A concubine in Weichen's family, because she has been serving Weichen, she has seen me hide silver." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly said: "But I have already asked her, she doesn't know anything, and after this incident, she was half scared to death, and she knelt in the courtyard and was punished." ”

Zhuang Siyan gave him a smiling smile: "Call her, I want to ask." ”

Lord He didn't dare to slack off, and was busy asking someone to invite the concubine to come over.

The age of the concubine was older than Zhuang Siyan thought.

She originally thought that these feudal men would be smaller than one when looking for a little wife.

Unexpectedly, Lord He's taste was different from others, and the concubine looked similar in age to him, if she hadn't spoken, Zhuang Siyan would have thought she was the original match.

The concubine's name is Jiawan, she originally had a family, but when the man died, she remarried to Lord He, and she even had a son and a daughter under her.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, Zhuang Siyan's goosebumps fell to the ground with a "whoosh".

Jiawan's voice is seriously out of touch with her age, and she can be described in three words in total, "soft and cute" is normal talking, and it seems to be coquettish.

Lord He probably also felt embarrassed about this matter, and said to her: "This is the imperial concubine from the palace, you are so angry to ask you something, don't talk nonsense." ”

Jia Wan let out a soft "um", and her waist swayed gently like a snake, making Master He almost reach out to help her.

Zhuang Siyan took Master He out first: "Lord He, this palace has something to say to her alone, you go out first, oh yes, close the door, no one is allowed to let in." ”

Lord He didn't know what she was going to do, and seemed to be afraid that his concubine would suffer, so he stood there and didn't leave, his mouth open and closed.

Zhuang Siyan glanced at him: "Huh? What's wrong? Didn't hear what I said, or do you have something to say? ”

Lord He: "Niangniang, Jiawan is just a woman's family, she has never seen the world, Weichen is afraid that she will not be able to speak, and then make Niangniang unhappy, it is still a good ...... for Weichen to accompany her here."

"Get out." Zhuang Siyan's face changed immediately.

As soon as she changed her face, the Ouchi guards who followed her immediately pulled out their knives.

Master He swallowed hard, glanced at Jia Wan sadly, and then walked out slowly.

As soon as the door was closed, Zhuang Siyan said to Jia Wan: "Raise your face, this palace wants to take a good look at you." ”

Although Jiawan is old, she is really exquisite.

With a melon seed face, her skin is white and delicate, and if it weren't for the fine lines on the corners of her eyes and neck, it would be really difficult to see her age.

On top of that, she also has a pair of peach blossom eyes.

When Zhuang Siyan asked her to look up, the corners of her eyes moved, and the big peach blossom eyes glanced here, and there was a soul-hooking light.

Not to mention men, women have a feeling of being moved when they see it.

Zhuang Siyan said in his heart: "But she is really a goblin, why did she follow Master He?" ”

Thinking so in my heart, I asked her in my mouth: "How long have you been with Master He?" ”

Jia Wan replied: "Three months, the slave family used to have a husband, and then died of illness, Lord He took pity on our mother and son to suffer, so he took me to the house." ”

"Oh...... what disease does your husband have?"

Jia Wan replied: "I heard that it was tuberculosis, and I kept coughing, and finally coughed to death." ”

Zhuang Siyan asked again: "How is his family, didn't he hire a doctor?" ”

"The family used to have a little money, because the husband was sick in bed for a long time, and all the money was used to buy medicine for him, but then there was no money, and the doctor also said that there was no cure for this disease."

Tuberculosis is probably a modern lung disease, and it is really a difficult disease to deal with, not to mention in ancient times, even in modern times, there are many incurable deaths.

Now that everyone is dead, there's nothing to ask.

Zhuang Siyan thought for a moment and got back to business: "Master He gave him the palace to repair the academy, and he lost five thousand taels of silver, do you know about this?" ”

Jia Wan knelt still, her eyelids drooping, and no one could see what she was thinking.

But the voice didn't change, and there was not even a little fluctuation in it: "I know, Lord He told the slave family, and said that only my slave family knows about this matter, and the mother will definitely blame it." ”

Zhuang Siyan laughed: "You don't have to blame, there are still five thousand taels of silver in the palace, but this thief stole the money from the palace when he stole it from the government's house, and he still stole the silver from the palace, which is too hateful." ”

She observed Jia Wan's face, trying to see a little bit of it from it.

But this woman looks soft and cute and easy to push down, but it is like a handful of flowing water, you grab her and flow away, you spread it out, she is just like that, it is not oil and salt.

After listening to Zhuang Siyan's words, he just lowered his head, clasped his back in front of him and said: "The thief is bold, he dares to come here to steal silver, it is really hateful, and I hope that Niangniang can find him and return my family to a clean house." ”

Zhuang Siyan nodded: "That's natural, you get up first, I still have something to ask you." ”

Jia Wan is not like an ordinary deep elder woman, how scared she is when she sees the lady in the palace.

Zhuang Siyan asked her to get up, she really got up, clasped her hands and stood aside, looking obedient, but the posture of standing was really amorous.

Even the young Ouchi guard, his eyes were glancing at her, probably never seen such a person.

Zhuang Siyan spoke: "Lord He lost the silver, if he can find it back, he will be sentenced to dereliction of duty at most, if he can't find it, then he is guilty of corruption, he will be imprisoned, and he can also be exiled." ”

Jia Wan didn't speak.

Zhuang Siyan said again: "Only the two of you know this money, then the two of you are equally suspected, so this palace can send you to Dali Temple now, and they will be locked up in prison for trial slowly." ”

Jia Wan still didn't speak.

Zhuang Siyan suddenly changed the topic and asked her: "I heard Lord He say, how old are you when you brought two children?" ”

Jia Wan: "The eldest daughter is fourteen years old, and the younger son is ten years old. ”

Zhuang Siyan nodded: "They are all just the right age, they should go to study in private, but if you and Lord He send them to Dali Temple together ......, they won't be able to read this book, and the mother is guilty, and the child will be ruined, and then he won't even be able to take the fame test, and his life will be ruined." ”

Jia Wan's hand finally moved.

It's a slight change, but the two hands are clasped tighter, and the knuckles are slightly white.

She still stood there without speaking.

Zhuang Siyan said: "This palace remembers that there is a law in the Dasheng Dynasty, if the mother is guilty, an adult man will be guilty of the same crime as his mother, if he is not an adult, he will not have the opportunity to gain fame in the future, and he is not allowed to join the army." In other words, once you are sent to prison, your son's life will be ruined by you, and as for your daughter, you are gone, and naturally no one cares about her. ”

The woman finally didn't calm down, and knelt down with a "plop": "Niangniang, please Niangniang to investigate, I really don't know about this matter with the slave family, where the slave family came from, but it was forced by life, I really don't know where Lord He's silver will go?" ”

Zhuang Siyan looked at her and asked, "Your husband just died, and you married Master He non-stop, did something happen in the middle?" ”

Jia Wan's drooping eyelashes moved twice: "The slave family didn't dare to deceive the mother, when the husband was there, there were neighborhood wanderers, who took a fancy to the appearance of the slave family, and wanted to bully them, but the slave family was clever enough to escape the catastrophe."

After the death of the husband, there was no man in the family to take care of him, and those wanderers did not stop all day long.

The slave family really had no choice but to marry Master He. ”

Her voice had already lowered: "These are all for the sake of the two children, they are still young, if they don't find a stable home, how will they live in the future?"

The slave family was born cheap, and they didn't talk about hardship, but the children were innocent. ”

was already soft and glutinous, and when it came to these sad things, it made people sympathize with them every minute, and Zhuang Siyan was almost moved by her.

After a pause, he said, "Yes, it's not easy for you to say, so now the opportunity is rare, if you have any news about this batch of silver, you can tell me."

Every time you say the same, you subtract a few points from your sin.

If you are really obsessed with the money and want to use this money to pave a way for your child, it is understandable.

Which mother in the world doesn't think about her children?

As long as the money is returned, things will be lightly settled, and there is room for turnaround.

But let me tell you, if you don't say anything to Lord He, I will be able to get the money back in the end.

But then, that's how well I can talk to you.

In the prison of Dali Temple, I heard that few prisoners who went in could get out.

And for the sake of your children, you ended up harming them, what do you want? ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for her family to answer, and stood up from the chair: "Think about it yourself, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, and there are some things that should not be taken, if you take them, you will only make yourself tired, but it will not bring any benefits." I'll come back tomorrow, and I hope you and Lord He have a better answer for me. ”
