Chapter 464: Account Books

The people from the Criminal Department went to ask Yong Chengbo.

Yong Chengbo went without refusing.

It's just that Shangshu of the Criminal Department asked about the grain and grass, and he insisted that he was robbed a lot by Dongxiang Hou.

It is by no means the number recorded in the account book of the Marquis of Dongxiang.

He suspected that Dongxiang Hou had cheated.

Either the criminal department Shangshu read the wrong number.

The secretary of the criminal department showed him the account book.

Yong Chengbo flipped a few pages and returned the account book to the criminal department.

As for the matter of grain and grass, Yong Chengbo didn't change his mind no matter how he asked.

Although there is an account book, it is necessary to confirm that the above number of grain and grass is correct before the grain transporter can be convicted.

Yong Cheng Bo has no fear.

I can't ask anything, Yong Chengbo wants to leave, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department can't stop him.

It's just that after Yong Chengbo left, after about half an hour, the good account books smoked by themselves.

Even if the Criminal Department tried its best to save it, the account books were burned beyond recognition.

Looking at the burned account books, Shangshu of the Criminal Department wanted to kill people.

After sniffing the account book, he said, "The account book has been smeared with phosphorus powder. ”

Phosphorus powder is easy to burn, and the criminal department knows it.

This is obviously what Yongcheng did.

It's just that Yong Chengbo has been gone for most of the day.

He was not caught red-handed, and the destruction of the account books was only the fault of the Criminal Department.

And!

The most important thing is that he can't explain to Dongxiang Hou.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at the account book, his face was as cold as frost.

Zuo Shilang of the Criminal Department said cautiously, "I don't know if there are any spare account books in the Dongxiang Hou Mansion?" ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department glanced at the left servant of the Criminal Department.

"The Criminal Department has been handling cases for so many years, have you ever seen something like an account book have a spare?" The Shangshu of the Criminal Department did not have a good airway.

The left waiter of the criminal department was bored and didn't dare to say more.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department took the burned account book and went to the Zhenbei Palace.

He is the son-in-law of the old prince, and now there is something unfair, and he wants to see if the old prince has a remedy.

The account books were destroyed, or because Yong Chengbo was destroyed, and the old prince's face was ugly.

Especially a few days ago, there was an incident where the old lady stole ointment for Yong Chengbo's daughter.

If Yong Chengbo is a pillar of the court, it is okay for the old lady to protect him.

But Yong Chengbo is obviously the same as Chongguo Gong.

"Father-in-law?" The criminal department Shangshu prayed with a face.

The old prince also had no good remedy, so he said, "You can tell the Dongxiang Marquis truthfully." ”

The temper of the Marquis of Dongxiang -

If the Shangshu of the Criminal Department had dared, he would not have come to ask for help when the old prince was recuperating from his injuries.

It's just that the old prince can't help him, and the paper can't keep the fire.

As a secretary of the Criminal Department, he understands the truth of leniency in confession and strictness in resisting.

He took the burned account books to the Dongxiang Marquis's Mansion.

Dongxiang Hou is not there.

Xiao Wu said, "At this hour, Hou Ye should almost go back to the house, if the criminal department Shangshu is in a hurry to see Hou Ye, you might as well wait for a while." ”

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department sat in the main hall and waited for the Marquis of Dongxiang.

Chief Lin personally served tea to Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and seeing that he was restless, he said, "But what happened?" ”

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department said embarrassedly, "The account book handed over to the emperor by the Hou Ye has been destroyed. ”

"That's it?" Mr. Lin said with a smile.

“……。”

Just, this, what?

He was anxious and his back was cold, why was his tone so relaxed?

Mr. Lin said, "There are still seven or eight books in the account book, I'll go get them." ”

The Book of the Criminal Department, "....... ”

When Manager Lin brought the box containing the account book, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department was still stunned.

When he saw the account book, he believed that there were many copies of it.

"Why are you preparing so much?" Shangshu of the Criminal Department said excitedly.

"Did Master Hou guess that the account books would be destroyed?"

The corners of Mr. Lin's mouth twitched.

How can Master Hou be so clever.

"These are all copied by Hou Ye himself," Mr. Lin said with a smile.

"After so many years in Qingyun Mountain, Hou Ye's words have become more and more rude, and he has copied it several times, but his wife is not satisfied, so he asked Hou Ye to copy it again."

"There are graffiti in some places, and there are mistakes in some places, but the numbers are correct."

"Because it was copied by the Hou Ye himself, it was not burned as firewood, but it was all packed in the box."

“……。”

The criminal department Shangshu opened the account book, and sure enough, the words were not ordinary rudeness.

Mr. Lin said with a smile, "Even if the account books are all destroyed, it doesn't matter, how much grain, grass and silver Qingyun Mountain has robbed the imperial court over the years, and the Hou Ye remembers it clearly." ”

"No, write it down."

Destroying the account books, such an inferior means are useless to the Dongxiang Hou Mansion.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department took the account book, got up and said, "This time I was negligent, and there will never be a next time." ”

"When Master Hou comes back to help me confess, I will go back to the Criminal Department first."

Mr. Lin sent the criminal department to leave the house.

Although Mr. Lin is the head of the Dongxiang Hou Mansion.

But he is an old man of the Flying Tiger Army, and in terms of meritorious deeds, these old people are all the first meritorious, and they have official ranks.

It's just that now that the Flying Tiger Army is not fighting, and Chonglao Guogong is staying in the mansion, General Manager Lin did not go to the barracks.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department sat in the soft sedan chair and looked at the account book in his hand.

Thinking of something, he said, "Don't go back to the Criminal Department, go home." ”

The little guy was a little confused.

But what the criminal department said, the little guy did it.

After returning home, Shangshu of the Criminal Department called his son to the study and asked him to investigate the case of Yong Chengbo escorting grain and grass.

Since the account book is Yong Chengbo's hands and feet, he should know better than anyone else that the account book is ruined at this time.

He might as well take the plan and send someone to investigate the grain and grass case.

Handed over to someone else, he was not at ease, he thought of his son.

The son of the prince of Chongguo is amazing, and he is the dragon and phoenix among people.

His son is no match.

But he can be on his own, his son has not yet experienced, and he has always been under his wing.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department reflected and felt that he was far inferior to Dongxiang Hou in terms of educating his son.

He also has to learn to let his son fly.

The king of Nan'an only had one son, the king of Nan'an, and he was reluctant to send him to the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion and was beaten for more than two months.

Being entrusted with a heavy task by his father, the eldest young master of the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department was very happy, and he had read so many files and books about the investigation of the case, but he had always been on paper, and he had never had the opportunity to practice, he had long wanted to try.

It's just that Mrs. Shangshu of the Criminal Department is not at ease, "Do you really want to leave such an important matter to Ming'er?" ”

"He has never left Kyoto, let alone handled any cases," the Lady of the Criminal Department advised.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at her and said, "Before Chen'er entered the Criminal Department, what cases did you investigate, Dongxiang Hou even trusted his son-in-law, but I can't even trust my own son?" ”

"The more you protect your son, the more difficult it will be for him to become a climate."

Mrs. Shangshu of the Criminal Department couldn't refute, and took a step back and said, "Why don't you let Ming'er check on others, Yong Chengbo saved the old lady, and the old lady treats him ......." ”

"No need to persuade again," Shangshu of the Criminal Department raised his hand to interrupt her.

"He destroyed the account books, which is enough to prove that he is weak-hearted, Mrs. Yongchengbo is the sister of Chongguo Gong, and investigating him can even involve Chongguo Gong."

"I've made up my mind, you help Ming'er pack up her baggage and set off tomorrow."
