Chapter 306: Swallowed most of the silver
Chapter 306 swallowed most of the silver
Wei Ye always stood aside with his hands folded, looking at Tian Xiang with a cold face.
He also felt very strange about this, according to Guo Min'an is a very capable prefect, and he has been a criminal name for half his life, how could he not find out this little trick?
Tian Xiang and Wang Quan deceived their superiors and subordinates, and after alarming the government, they were still able to come out, which is really incredible.
However, when he was in the house, no matter how he asked, Tian Xiang didn't say a word, just blindly cried and cried, saying that she had the wrong idea and told her to spare her, and refused to say anything else.
He really had no choice, and besides, in addition to this kind of thing, he couldn't forgive Tian Xiang, so he asked the little maid to take someone and bring him to the mansion, and as for Wang Quan, he also instructed the servants in the family to go to Wang Quan's house.
However, he expected at the time that Wang Quan must have been no longer at home, after all, something happened, he was afraid that he would have panicked a long time ago, he was previously detained by the official government, and he couldn't leave, otherwise as soon as something happened, he would definitely run away without a trace.
At this time, Guo Min'an asked Tian Xiang with a smile and joke, he looked at the past for a long time, and found that Tian Xiang still lowered his head and refused to raise his head, he pursed his lips and thought about it, raised his eyes and looked at Guo Min'an again: "My lord, can I say a few words?" ”
Guo Minan raised his eyebrows high, made a gesture of being at ease, didn't stop him, didn't say anything, just stared at him like that, and then withdrew his gaze.
Wei Ye didn't take it seriously, he could see it, after experiencing this incident, Guo Min'an, the prefect of the fourth grade, would never mention any good feelings towards the Wei family again, and he knew it in his heart early on.
At this time, Wei Ye turned his toes in a different direction, and the whole person stood still in the direction where Tian Xiang was kneeling, and as soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was dull, and he called Tian Xiang, and then stopped talking again.
Tian Xiang raised her head hesitantly, her eyes were red, as if she was extremely aggrieved.
Wei Ye saw it at a glance, and only felt disdain in his heart: "Do you feel very wronged?" ”
Tian Xiang shook her head busily: "It's the slave who made a foolish mind and did something wrong, and didn't dare to feel wronged." ”
Wei Ye sighed, and didn't answer her words, such words, he had heard them many times when he was in the mansion.
He clasped his hands in front of his chest and pouted: "When you arrive at the lobby of the mansion, the prefect asks you something, don't you still plan to answer honestly?" As for me, when I was in the house, I also told you that Wang Quan ran away-" Wei Ye dragged the tail note, bent down slightly, and stared at Tian Xiang deadly, "He ran away, you don't know what it means, right?" ”
Tian Xiang was obviously shocked, and shrunk her shoulders and nodded to say that she knew.
Wei Ye felt strange.
How can there be such a person in this world? According to her, Wang Quan is nearly ten years older than her, and he has already become a family, with a wife and children at home, and there is no way to have the kind of relationship he thinks between him and Tian Xiang, and Tian Xiang is unlikely to love Wang Quan sincerely.
So since this is the case, why is it that at this point, Tian Xiang is still willing to take care of the king?
Guo Min'an on the high platform understood what Wei Ye meant.
The girl already knew that Wang Quan had left her and ran away by herself, but she still refused to confide in anything, and she didn't even want to bite Wang Quan?
Thinking of this, Guo Min'an frowned tightly, and the sound of the wood sounded again, Wei Ye stood up straight and looked back, only to hear Guo Min'an say in a cold voice: "People left you, got out and ran away, and now that the East Window incident happened, you took care of him instead?" Have you been serving in the inner house all these years, and your mind is not clear? ”
Talking about a girl's family like this is really too ugly, and even Wei Ye subconsciously twisted his eyebrows, obviously unable to agree with his words.
Tian Xiang choked up, hesitated for a long time, and no one opened her mouth to urge her again, until the wind outside the house suddenly rose, with the sound of dead leaves on the tree, she opened her mouth in a hurry: "Actually, it's not that the slave doesn't want to say, it's really that I don't know what to say......"
As she spoke, she wiped a handful of tears with the back of her hand: "At the beginning, Yu Pei was stolen out of Qingle Courtyard by a slave maid, and she found Wang Quan because of ...... It's because ......"
She pursed her lips, looking a little embarrassed.
Guo Min Anxin moved, and his face sank: "This is not the first time you have stolen something from Qingle Courtyard and sold it, right?" ”
Tian Xiang was stunned, lifted his eyelids, looked up, and saw Guo Min'an's eyes like a torch, so he nodded hesitantly and said: "I have done this kind of thing before, every three or five times, I can steal three or two times a year, in fact, it is enough to exchange for a lot of silver." There are no bad things around the second girl, all the top gold is expensive, steal one, sell it, and get the silver back, the slave and the king are all divided, and it is enough to spend for several years. ”
Wei Ye's sideburns bulged.
This girl really entered the Wei family to serve since she was a child, and she has been placed in Qingle Courtyard, Wei Luan praised her at the beginning, she is quick with her hands and feet, and she is diligent in her work, and she always does more than others, so during the New Year's holidays, Wei Luan will always give her more rewards.
He didn't pay much attention to these things originally, but after the incident today, Wang Chuan whispered in his ear, and he knew that Wei Luan was in the courtyard and was so partial to her.
But this girl is simply wolf-hearted, and she doesn't miss Wei Luan's kindness at all.
No wonder at home, no matter how they asked, she refused to tell the truth, it turned out that she was ashamed, it turned out that it was not the first time she stole something to sell!
"You stole the things of Qingle Courtyard in the past and sold them, and they were all through Wang Quan's hands, all of them have two people, and then they have never been discovered, so you feel that Wang Quan is indeed a reliable person, one and two, after a long time, you two are embarrassed, right?"
Speaking of which, Guo Minan already understands everything.
Tian Xiang and Wang Quan should sell the things of Qingle Courtyard together, not a day or two, not even a year or two, no matter how long the years, Wang Quan has already had enough experience to deal with all kinds of possible accidents, so as to ensure that the deeds done by the two of them will not be noticed by anyone.
Because of this, this time the yamen went to the Wei family, but they still failed to find Tian Xiang and Wang Quan.
If it was the first time for the two of them to plan such a thing, there would inevitably be mistakes, but how could they have too much experience, and the aftermath was done very well, and they were also a confused person when they met Honeysuckle, and they were afraid of getting into trouble, so they didn't dare to say that the jade pendant had been lost a long time ago, so they thought that before and after the government received the secret letter report, the jade pendant had just been lost from the Wei family.
"So you don't know at all, what did Wang Quan do with things after he took them outside?"
Tian Xiang thought about it carefully, to say that she didn't know at all, no, she knew more or less, but if she wanted to say that it was very detailed, she didn't know.
She nodded at first, but then shook her head and called your lord: "The slave only knows that every time Wang Quan gets something and takes it outside, he doesn't personally deal with it, even if the second girl finds out or notices it one day, she will check it out and find it on him." Most of the time, he is looking for people from outside, and he doesn't need to be acquainted, and when he gets the silver, he will take out some of the money to others, and the share is not much, and it does not affect the income of the two of us, but the slave maid inquired a few times, and he is looking for some idle or lazy people who do not do their jobs, and every time they draw thirty or fifty taels of silver to them, they are willing to do this. ”
took out a thirty or fifty taels of silver, which was okay to deal with in the past, but this time this jade pendant asked for two thousand taels of silver when he opened his mouth......
"After this jade pendant is taken out and sold, how much silver do you get?"
Tian Xiang was honest at this time, and replied without thinking about five hundred taels.
Guo Min'an's eyebrows jumped: "Have you never been suspicious of Wang Quan?" ”
Tian Xiang sighed, and looked up blankly: "What do you mean by this, adult?" ”
"Wang Quan took things outside and sold them for silver, and you didn't interfere at all, and you hardly asked, how much silver did he sell, did he show you the certificate?" The expression on Guo Min'an's face had already eased, and now he saw that Tian Xiang was stunned, and he was extremely at a loss when he asked, so he understood in his heart.
From the very beginning, Wang Quan may have found all kinds of excuses, and he never showed the voucher to Tian Xiang, so Tian Xiang didn't know how much silver Wang Quan got each time, and what was given to her was just that she felt that Wang Quan had never fooled her.
Although Tian Xiang served by Wei Luan's side, she couldn't say that she hadn't seen good things, but how valuable those things were, she probably didn't count them in her heart.
That jade pendant, not to mention that it is the object of the lord of Yuanle, can be sold for two thousand taels of silver, it should be no problem, although Xu Dazhuang ran into walls everywhere that day, but from Liu Ziwang took great pains to find Xu Dazhuang, and bought the jade pendant for two thousand taels of silver, this thing must be worth so much silver.
If according to what Tian Xiang said, Xu Dazhuang should only get thirty or fifty taels of silver, and take the rest of more than 1,900 taels, she and Wang Quan should share it equally, and at least more than eight hundred taels of silver, even if the two of them are not evenly divided, she sees that Wang Quan is busy before and after, and she should get at least eight hundred taels if she doesn't want the extra dozens of taels, but she said that only five hundred taels of silver came to her......
In this court, there is no need for her to lie about this idea.
This girl doesn't know what to say about her, saying that she is stupid and has no heart, but she has so much courage to dare to steal her master's things and sell them.
Guo Minan shook his head after thinking about it, and casually pointed at Liu Ziwang: "This jade pendant was taken for thirty miles, and Liu Ziwang spent two thousand taels of silver that day to take this thing back from the customer's hand." Tian Xiang, two thousand taels of silver, do you think that Wang Quan will give you five hundred taels, is this what you should do? That's why the official asked you, did you never suspect him when I shared accounts with you in the past? ”
Tian Xiangdeng's eyes widened, and he couldn't say anything for a moment, and his throat seemed to be blocked by something.
She looked at Guo Min'an, and then turned her head to look at Liu Ziwang.
Liu Ziwang nodded frequently: "Our pawnshop is given out with a certificate, and it is indeed bought back for two thousand taels of silver, but it is not collected from Wang Quan in your mouth." But listen to what you mean, there is nothing wrong with this, this thing is Xu Dazhuang from Xujiazhuang who came to the door to put it away, that person is a well-known lazy and lazy person in Xujiazhuang, and he is idle, which is very consistent with what you said before, Wang Quansu is looking for those people in the day. ”
Tian Xiang felt that her eyes were dark for a while.
Over the years, she has really stolen things from Qingle Courtyard, even if it is only two or three times a year, but the second girl's things are all expensive, just steal a hosta jade bracelet and go out, let alone exchange it for dozens of taels of silver, sometimes she is bolder, stealing a whole set of jewels, or rare rare things, that can be exchanged for more than a hundred taels.
This time the jade pendant, she didn't think that she could exchange it for so much silver, but she felt that Qi Niang and Honeysuckle valued it so much, this thing should be the most expensive in Qingle Courtyard, so when Wang Quan gave her a silver ticket of five hundred taels that day, she was also taken aback, and felt that it was beyond her expectations to be able to sell it for a thousand taels of silver, and what did Wang Quan say at that time?
He is indeed a villain, he swallowed so much silver by himself, and fooled her, saying that she has a good eye and the things she picks are valuable, this time in exchange for one thousand and one hundred taels, he also made a generous move, and took one hundred taels to the people who did things for them, and the remaining one thousand taels, he two of them each five hundred taels, even if they don't do such things again in the next two years, it is enough.
But who would have thought that he had swallowed nearly half of the silver......
Tian Xiang cried with a sad face: "The slave really doesn't know...... When he first started doing this, the slave maid also said that he wanted to see the voucher, but he always said that the slave and maid did not trust him, since this is the case, it is better to break up in two, and later said that it was too much, and the slave and maid did not mention it anymore, and the silver obtained every time was not less outrageous, and the slave and maid were useless by themselves, and I really didn't think that this jade pendant could be exchanged for two thousand taels of silver......
Guo Minan couldn't stop shaking his head: "So you see, Wang Quan has run away without a trace now, and he has swallowed so much of your silver, and you still have to hide it for him, what is the reason?" ”
After he finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows and looked over: "You may not know who Wang Quan knows outside the mansion, but over the years, the two of you have always had a good personal relationship, where he will go on weekdays, or what kind of people he befriends, don't you really know at all?" ”
Tian Xiang is angry in her heart at this time, Wang Quan is not kind to be a person and does things, how can she not be angry?
"He's a gambler." Tian Xiang pondered for a long time before he spit out such a sentence, "He didn't like this before, he started gambling after the slave stole things and sold them outside the house, and he started to gamble after he started to have more spare money in his hands." The slave and maid knew that it was because he occasionally came back to borrow money from the slave and maid, and he also knew that the silver was stored in the slave and maid, and most of them had not been touched, and then he borrowed more times, and the slave and maid would ask, and after several inquiries, he knew that he owed silver in several gambling houses in the city. If you really can't find him, you might as well look for him in the gambling house in the city!
