Everyone held back their questions, and the answer was not revealed until the carriage returned to the mansion and Mo Junyang returned to the Ruiwang Mansion.

Shi Qingxue asked.

Mo Junyang pursed his lips and said lightly: "This matter, don't care." ”

Shi Qingxue, Qu Yuexuan and the others opened their eyes wide, and they all stared at Mo Junyang with that kind of incredulous gaze.

Qu Yuebai was the first to react, frowned and asked, "Jun Yang, what did you talk about with Your Majesty?" Did he say something? ”

At this time, everyone also reacted, and they all showed that kind of sudden realization.

Shi Qingxue hurriedly said: "Yes, why didn't I think of it!" Mo You is his person, which means that Mo You will appear on the scene, and he must have instructed him. He wanted to ......"

Mo Junyang stretched out his big hand and pressed Shi Qingxue's small mouth.

Slowly, but calmly, before Qingxue could speak, he shook his head.

"The emperor doesn't know, you, don't ask."

Shi Qingxue was not as good as Mo Junyang, who was in the imperial study before.

Liu raised his eyebrows and asked unceremoniously: "Is this the emperor's statement to you, or your statement to me?" ”

The rhetorical question that was not salty or light made Mo Junyang have nothing to say.

He has never been reluctant to let Shi Qingxue get his wish.

The same is true for this matter.

Now that he was questioned by Shi Qingxue, he had no choice but to talk about it and happily admitted it.

"Your Majesty has admitted that the silver has been used by him, and as for the rest, he told me not to look any further.

And I'm ...... Promised him! ”

Shi Qingxue was not too surprised when she heard this.

Or before Mo Junyang entered the palace, she guessed this result.

On the contrary, Qu Yuexuan kept talking, "What do you mean don't check it out?" And what about the truth of the matter? And what about the wounds of my men? Is that all there is to it?

Even if he is the emperor, ten million taels of silver and a hundred lives, if he says no, it will be gone? Also ......"

Qu Yuexuan's shout was sealed in Qu Yuebai's mouth.

Qu Yuebai was obviously the calmest of them all, and he didn't ask until this moment: "You already know the whereabouts of the silver?!" ”

Although it is a question sentence, it uses a firm tone.

Mo Junyang nodded.

"Do you know where Your Majesty is spending this money?" Qu Yuebai asked again.

Mo Junyang nodded again.

And said: "Now that the money has gone north, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch it back." ”

"Going north?"

At this moment, everyone else, including Qu Yuebai, looked at Mo Junyang in amazement.

Shi Qingxue asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say that judging from the location where the robbery occurred, it is absolutely impossible for the official messenger to transport the official silver?" How can you say that the official bank has been transported? ”

Even though the closure of the case may not exist, the transshipment makes the trajectory of the road there.

If the official escort is really such a heavy thing as silver, it is absolutely impossible to get to the place of the crime in one day!

This doesn't make sense!

Mo Junyang shook his head and said, "Our previous guess is not wrong, in these robberies, the official messenger is not transporting silver, and the robbery is not silver. ”

"Then how did the silver get shipped out of Kyoto?" Shi Qingxue asked suspiciously.

This silver is the silver of the treasury, and every amount of money is strictly registered in the treasury.

Since Mo Junyu came up with a 'robbery' method to make the silver disappear, it is definitely impossible to publicize this matter, and even the treasury manager knows about it.

However, if the treasury manager did not falsify the entry and exit registers, the time when each silver went out of the treasury and the time when the silver was robbed can be matched.

How can Mo Junyu let the official transport not silver, but also the silver?

It doesn't make sense!

Everyone looked at Mo Junyang in disbelief.

They felt that Mo Junyang was wrong.

That batch of silver may have been hidden somewhere in Kyoto by Mo Junyu at this time, just waiting for the matter to be settled, the rumor has passed, and then it will be shipped out of Kyoto again.

Otherwise, as soon as the silver robbery occurred, not only Kyoto, but also the entire official road was under martial law.

There are all kinds of searches, but how can the silver be evaded and shipped out of Kyoto?

Facing everyone's questioning, Mo Junyang looked normal, and replied lightly: "It's very simple, because the silver has been shipped out of Kyoto long before the case?"

"What? No way! Shi Qingxue subconsciously denied this ridiculous conjecture.

The reason is simple, silver is counted, and entry and exit are registered.

Unless Mo Junyu colluded with the treasury manager and secretly changed the register, otherwise, the time when the silver was out of the treasury would explain everything.

When Qingxue pointed out this at that time, Mo Junyang nodded, "That's right, the time when the silver came out of the warehouse just happened to illustrate this point."

This is because the silver was transported from the treasury the day before the official mission left the city, and it was parked in the transshipment division, waiting to be transported out of Beijing the next day. ”

Hearing Mo Junyang's meaningful words, Shi Qingxue couldn't help but be silent, and her little face showed thoughtful thoughts.

But Qu Yuexuan continued: "That's right, so, you said that the silver had been transported a long time ago, which doesn't make sense at all." ”

"Because the silver was shipped out of Kyoto that night."

Qu Yuexuan was still arguing: "It's still not right, at night, the city gate is under the gate, and you are not allowed to enter or exit." How can so much silver be transported out of the city gates? ”

Mo Junyang: "Then it depends on who is lucky?" After the curfew, only the internal guards have the right to enter and exit the city gate freely, unless they have the emperor's charter.

And I have checked the entry and exit inspection records before and after the crime at the North City Gate, and found that the internal guards have left the city gate in the middle of the night many times. The time happened to be the first night when the silver was nominally shipped out of Kyoto.

Moreover, the internal guards were all at the emperor's order, and the guards at the city gate did not dare to ask at all, and they were not even allowed to inspect it. ”

At this point, everyone showed a look of sudden realization.

Although the explanation given by Mo Junyang is very unbelievable, it is by far the most likely explanation.

If things are really like what Mo Junyang said, then many things will make sense.

Why did the Criminal Department and the Kyoto Prefecture send so many officials to investigate and secretly visit, and they couldn't even touch the shadow of a tael of silver.

Because the silver had already been transported away, it was still secretly transported by the internal guards, and ordinary officials did not have the gall to manage the internal guards at all.

Even if the silver is carried out from under his nose, I am afraid that he may not be able to find it.

At the same time, it was transported by the internal guards, which also explained the problem of manpower to transport so much silver, which required a large number of people without being detected.

Although the internal guard belonged to the establishment of the palace Praetorian Guard, it was directly subordinate to the emperor.

There is only one boss, and even the commander of the Praetorian Guard can't control the internal guard.

Usually they act in the name of secrecy, and no one knows at all, and they dare not find out what they are doing.

While maintaining imperial power, there are also countless dark transactions, which are carried out through the hands of these internal guards.

After everyone came to their senses, they fell into a deeper silence.

For a long time, no one said a word.

Even if they have now almost guessed the ins and outs of the entire silver robbery case, and even some of the details.

Some evidence has also been found!

But!

The two most critical questions – where did all that silver go? What does Mo Junyu want this silver for?

But it's still a mystery.

Rao is Mo Junyang is like a god, I'm afraid I can't guess it.

And this may become an eternal mystery, only Mo Junyu and the people involved in planning this matter know.

Shi Qingxue felt a tightness in her chest, but in the end, she couldn't hold back, and asked sullenly: "What about those officials and soldiers who died because of this incident?" ”

There is a list of officials who are transported, and if they die in the line of duty, the government will pay compensation to their families.

But, no matter how much money there is, what is the use of people dying?

Not to mention, the soldiers whose names are not even known.

Mo Junyang pondered for a while, and said to Qu Yuebai: "This matter, leave it to you!" The body is in our hands, let's find out the identity first. ”

Qu Yuebai nodded, "Then what if someone comes from the palace?" ”

This consideration is not unreasonable.

In order to completely suppress this matter, Mo Junyu is bound to throw out the 'robbers' to close the case.

These people who served him did their best, and after doing their best, they could not even leave their real names, but had to die as thieves.

Mo Junyang said indifferently: "Whoever looks for you to ask for someone, you can find him to die!" ”

Qu Yuebai breathed and bowed silently.

He knew that although Mo Junyang was still calm, the man was already angry.

For the sake of the overall situation, Mo Junyang did not delve into the matter further.

But if anyone thinks that this is his compromise, and even wants to calculate it on their heads, it is wishful thinking!

Mo Junyang is a person, even the first emperor can't arbitrarily appoint someone.

Now the one on the dragon chair is even more unqualified.

Qu Yuebai thought indifferently, and her heart was a little more confident.

Evenly, the people who were silent just now were also a little more emotional because of Mo Junyang's words.

The silver robbery was initially loud, and many officials were held accountable for their poor handling.

But this is probably the most thunderous and rainy case.

Even several officials of the Criminal Department who were ordered to investigate and handle the case were only detained for half a year for failing to handle the case, and they were not even demoted.

After the emperor's punishment came down, the silver robbery also meant the end.

No robbers were found, no silver was recovered.

This matter is over.

When those people directly in charge received the holy decree, they all looked incredulous, and they couldn't believe that the matter was over like this?

Are they okay?

It ended up making them doubt their lives.

But none of the parties will talk too much at this juncture.

This is a good thing that has never happened before, and some people are ready to be suspended from their posts, or even dismissed from their posts.

Now that we are acquitted, it is better to be quiet.

What if the boss reacts and regrets it?

As a result, this matter was quietly thrown into history in the disregard of the above, the cooperation of the people below, and the sighs of the people.

It was exactly the same as Shi Qingxue and they expected.

If there is anything to be happy about, it is probably that with Qu Yuebai's efforts, the identities of those soldiers who died in vain have been clarified, and the bereavement pensions that should be given to their families have also been allocated to the families of the deceased from the Rui Wangfu.

During this period, an episode occurred -

As Qu Yuebai expected, Mo Junyu really sent someone to ask for the 'robbers', but it was Mo You who came.

As a result, he was naturally teased by Qu Yuexuan and others, and then went back with his tail between his legs.
