As soon as Su Lijiu took Yuzhu to recognize the way, and explained to the people in the house and returned to the barracks, Songshan came over in a hurry: "My lord, it's not good, something happened!" Master Wu asked you to go quickly! ”

Su Lijiu first sighed weakly: "What's the matter?" ”

"There is a problem with the materials that need to be transported, and it is said that the goods do not match the account books, and there is a total loss of 500,000 taels!"

Su Lijiu reacted: "Something is wrong with the materials? Isn't that what the second prince is responsible for? In a sense, shouldn't this be good news? ”

Songshan hurriedly said: "The problem is mainly that there is a problem with the donation from the merchant's side, it is Madame's father, and Master Zhao is in charge!" ”

"Zhao Fengyu?" The corners of Su Lijiu's mouth twitched: "Go!" ”

Even if the martial arts are grounded, it can't be stopped, Zhao Yuan and Yezhi have just arrived, and Hu Manzheng reprimanded him: "Why did I tell you that day?" I'll ask you to remind him to donate his share, don't get too close to the second prince, and don't get involved! What do you do? ”

Zhao Yuan blamed himself: "I really didn't expect something to happen, so I forgot about it and didn't tell my father!" ”

Hu Man angrily pointed at him and couldn't speak: "You, you!" ”

Wu Zhan came over and grabbed Hu Man's hand: "Okay, at this time, you said that he was too late, don't be angry." ”

"So what now? All the fingers are pointed at him! ”

"What the hell is going on?" Su Lijiu stepped into the lobby: "When I went to see off someone this morning, the dock was still calm, and there was nothing going on!" ”

"It should be that not long after you left, Master Zhao went to deliver the account book, but after checking it, the second prince's people found that it was wrong, so they detained the person on the spot and reported it directly into the palace." Wu Zhan wrinkled his eyebrows: "I expected that he might do tricks, but he was more cunning than he imagined, and he actually directly involved Master Zhao!" Let him take the blame, and we will fall into passivity again! ”

"Hu Man, don't you know these best?" Su Lijiu asked Hu Man: "What exactly went wrong?" ”

Hu Man was also worried: "I don't know the details yet, but the Zhao family itself donated 200,000 taels plus grain, why covet these hundreds of thousands of taels?" Brother, do you know how many merchants add up? ”

"I know that." Ye Zhi said: "Yesterday, my father didn't sleep in the middle of the night for this account book, and I helped sort it out, it seems to be a total of 1.8 million taels!" ”

"That is, 1.8 million taels were handed over, and there were so many account books, but the silver handed over was 500,000 taels less out of thin air, and it became 1.3 million?" Hu Man bit his lip: "Where did the 500,000 taels go?" Got dropped a bag? Who keeps it? Through whose hands? These are all to be checked! ”

"The top priority now is to protect Master Zhao in front of the emperor first, and then strive to win the errand of investigating the case to our side." Wu Zhan said calmly: "If you leave Jiu and enter the palace, I will write an excerpt and ask to enter the palace!" ”

Zhao Yuan had never experienced this kind of thing, the backbone of the Zhao family was arrested, and he was a little flustered for a while: "Brother-in-law, what is the worst outcome of this matter?" ”

Wu Zhan glanced at him: "If you embezzle the disaster relief silver, you will be exiled at the lightest, or exiled at the worst!" ”

Zhao Yuan's face turned pale, and he blamed himself for not taking Hu Man's advice seriously! Slammed the table hard: "This Yuan Jian is too much of a thing!" The father who lost money has always regarded him as a year-old friend, and he is obligated to help him, but he harmed my Zhao family! ”

"If this can bring down the Zhao family, or even me, of course he will not hesitate to sacrifice Master Zhao!" Wu Zhan's eyes were deep: "But he shouldn't just want to bring down the Zhao family!" It didn't do much for him. ”

Hu Man raised his head suddenly: "You mean, he is using the Zhao family to target us?" ”

Wu Zhan took a few steps and said uncertainly: "At that time, we tried our best to push this errand to him, and he would naturally guard against us for catching him, but he really wanted to make a fuss about it, what should I do?" So he came up with this secret trick, and Mingli pushed out Master Zhao and let us cast a mouse trap! However, it remains to be seen whether there are other conspiracies. ”

The speculation of Wu Zhan is not out of nowhere, he has always been very sharp, in the prison, in a separate cell, Zhao Fengyu is in the prison, Yuan Jian is outside the prison, Zhao Fengyu grabbed the prison door with both hands: "Lord Wang, the grass people don't dare to have the slightest slack and second-mindedness in doing things for the prince, there must be something wrong in it, and I hope the prince will see it!" ”

Yuan Jian patted the hem of his clothes: "I didn't expect to be at this point today!" I also know that the Zhao Mansion is not short of these fifty taels of silver, but the problem is that the nature of this case is different, this is disaster relief silver, life-saving money for refugees! My father values it very much, if I pursue it......"

"Lord Wang, why did my Zhao Mansion do this? I, Zhao Fengyu, am I crazy to make such a big mistake for just fifty taels? Zhao Fengyu was also caught off guard by the sudden change: "I beg the prince to explain to the emperor, the grass people are really wronged!" ”

"It's really the evidence there, and it's not easy for this king to do it!" Yuan Jianyi raised his eyebrows: "That's it!" This king has a solution, but I don't know if you agree? ”

"What's the solution?" Zhao Fengyu asked.

Yuan Jian touched his smooth chin: "After all, this king and Master Zhao have some friendship, as long as Master Zhao can cooperate, this king can keep Zhao Mansion worry-free!" After saying that, he raised his hand and hooked his fingers, and the guards behind him stepped forward, took out a piece of paper full of words from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Fengyu.

"How? As long as you sign and draw on it, this king can intercede with his father and let Master Zhao go back. ”

Zhao Fengyu finished reading the paper, his hands trembled a little, and he looked up at Yuan Jian in disbelief: "The prince prepared this thing early in the morning?" In this case, it's not a misunderstanding, it's not a mistake, it's... Premeditated?! ”

Yuan Jian tilted his head helplessly: "How can Master Zhao talk like this?" This king is helping you! ”

"That's it? That's it? Zhao Fengyu's chest rose and fell, and he slapped the paper on the humble table: "Is the prince helping me or harming me?!" ”

Zhao Fengyu was really a little stimulated, he really helped him sincerely and did things for the victims, but he was calculated by his thought friend! It also implicated......

"The prince has done so much, just to let the grass people identify that all this is under the command of my daughter and son-in-law? The prince wants me to harm my family? Zhao Fengyu sat down tremblingly: "Shu Caomin can't do it!" ”

Yuan Jian was not in a hurry: "You think about it, is it the ancestral family business of the Zhao family, and his own son is important, or is it important to be a daughter who recognizes him halfway and has already married?" By the way, although we have been friends for a long time, but I'm afraid you really don't know, this king's patience is limited, for the sake of our past relationship, the day and night time for you to consider, if you still can't figure it out at that time...... Don't blame this king for being ruthless! With that, he turned and walked out of the cell.

Zhao Fengyu clenched his fists, his temples jumped suddenly, and he slammed his fist on the table for a while: "Zhao Fengyu, Zhao Fengyu!" You're so smart and foolish! "I've been cautious for most of my life, but I didn't expect it to be planted!

Family business and sons! Daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter! The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat! Zhao Fengyu rubbed his forehead painfully, and he became a lot haggard in an instant.

He has a headache, and the emperor is not easy here! If this was in the past, now the Zhao family can barely be regarded as a son and daughter with him! He looked at Su Lijiu in embarrassment and had just summoned him to the palace to fight the martial arts: "Tell me, why are you always in trouble recently?" Yes? ”

Su Lijiu shrugged and had nothing to say, he had been suppressed and calculated, didn't he keep having accidents? It's hard to fight back once, but the opponent is too cunning, and they are dragged into the friendly army, and they are also embarrassed!

Wu Zhan saluted: "Your Majesty!" The minister dares to guarantee that Master Zhao is definitely wronged! Thinking about it, the Zhao family is also the richest man in Changling, he took the lead in donating almost 300,000 taels of silver and grain this time, if he deducted 500,000 taels, in addition to his own, he would earn 200,000 taels, the Zhao family really didn't lack this money, how could he be so stingy? ”

"The minister also thinks!" Su Lijiu said: "Zhao Fengyu can be regarded as a lifelong hard worker in the shopping mall, and he is quite low-key and restrained, and he is not a fool to be able to do this, it is impossible to be so indiscriminate." ”

"I know that, too." The emperor flipped through the folds in his hand: "But when the second child came to tell him, he and Zhao Fengyu have been friends for many years, and this time he also entrusted him to help, perhaps, he is because of the relationship with the second child, he thinks he will open his eyes and close his eyes, so he can do his hands and feet, can he not bleed, and can he make a small profit?" ”

"Naturally, there is no basis for what you say, and it is natural for the emperor to be suspicious." Wu Zhan glanced at Su Lijiu: "But I also hope that the emperor will not be beaten to death with a stick, so that the people who really do things for the refugees will be wronged, at least give a chance to prove their innocence, the minister is now grounded, and he has a relationship with Master Zhao, in order to avoid suspicion, it is naturally not good to come forward, but I also hope that it will not be handed over to the second prince for investigation!" ”

Su Lijiu then said: "This is a big case, the minister suggests that it can be handed over to Dali Temple to find out, whether it is a misunderstanding, framing or something that is true, and finding evidence can also convince the public!" ”

The emperor waved his hand: "Okay, I'll hand it over to Dali Temple to investigate this case!" If I can't find evidence of his innocence, I can only do things according to the law at that time, and then I won't have to complain anymore and bother me! Step aside! ”

Finally got the opportunity, the next thing left was to find evidence, the two of them went out of the palace together, Su Lijiu said a little strangely: "Don't you think the emperor is particularly easy to speak?" ”

Wu Zhan said lightly: "Is there one?" ”

"Didn't you?" Su Lijiuyi raised his eyebrows: "The emperor attaches so much importance to disaster relief, shouldn't he be angry and immediately send it down when something goes wrong?" But looking at the emperor's appearance, it seems that he is helpless, and he agreed to our request so easily, which is really not like the emperor's style. ”

Wu Zhan narrowed his eyes: "Maybe... He also thinks there is something strange in it! Okay, I'll trouble you and Master Su to investigate this matter, and I'll find a way to help! It's best to find the second prince who did something in it, so it's even better! ”
