Shuiyue Nunnery has been built for nearly 100 years after three generations since the first generation of Ning Rong Ergong funded the construction.

The serious and unserious sister-in-law in the temple is only Jingxu, Zhizhi'er, and Zhishan, and the rest are only three or five miscellaneous maids.

The huge nunnery is an elegant place on the surface, but the private deeds in the back are almost the same as the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion, which makes people sick.

Shuntianfu also knew that this Shuiyue Nunnery was the family temple of Ning Rongjia's family, so naturally he would not only send officials to come.

Qin E, the official of Shuntian Mansion who accompanied him, breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Jia Cong's attitude. Fortunately, it was Lord Yumao who came, and the second master of Rongguo Mansion was too silly.

Didn't you say that the second master of Rongguo Mansion was born smart?

"Xiaguan Shun Tianfu pushes official Qin E, meet Lord Yumao."

The magistrates of Shuntianfu are one level higher than those of ordinary state governments, and they are in charge of the names of the criminal and the praise of the canon in order to follow the six grades.

Looking at his appearance, Qin E is only in his twenties. The second official who can become the official of the capital government at this age is either from the right path of the imperial examination or from a big family.

Jia Cong did not underestimate this young magistrate, and returned the salute as a Confucian student: "Lord Qin is very polite, my cousin has a pure and kind nature, and his excessively aggressive actions have caused trouble to Lord Qin, and he still looks forward to Haihan."

"Where is it, it's the lower official who didn't explain it clearly, which made Second Master Bao misunderstood, and it should be the lower official who apologizes."

Qin E smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Yumao, to be honest, the case of Shuiyue Nunnery is conclusive, and the lower officials have to come......

It turns out that Shuntianfu has received a lot of cases related to Buddhist temples these days, most of which are crimes such as embezzling people's land, raising money and debts, and taking up lawsuits.

And Suigetsu-an is one of the "best", how good is it?

In the name of Wang Xifeng, Suwol-an raised money and debts all over the counties of Gyeonggi Prefecture, and the benefits of quality were much higher than the five-point profits set by the imperial court.

Over the course of a year, the debts borrowed have increased several times. Whoever borrowed money, all the land and houses were turned into silver taels and were pocketed by the Suigetsu Nunnery. What's more, pawning wives and selling daughters is just a common thing.

The Qinglou brothel in the capital has almost become a big customer of Shuiyuean, just the second year of Yuanyou to the present, in just three or four years, just through the Jingxu hand of Shuiyuean sold into the Qinglou brothel of women, there are more than ten people.

And Jingxu had already planned, and these charges could not fall on her head. All her actions are in the name of Rongguofu, specifically in the name of Lian's second grandmother Wang Xifeng.

After all, Shuiyue Nunnery is the family temple of the Jia family, and Wang Xifeng is the nominal housekeeper of Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Cong quietly listened to Qin E's story, and looked at the plaque hanging on the gate of Shuiyue Nunnery with cold eyes.

This plaque is still inscribed by the first generation of Rong Guogong himself, when the old Guogong killed too many enemies on the battlefield, in order to eliminate karma, build a nunnery for the Jia family to collect blessings and eliminate disasters.

Who would have thought that decades later, the Jia family temple would do such a hurtful thing.

"Lord Qin, can there be any evidence for the case involved in the Water Moon Nunnery?"

Jia Cong's indifferent question made Qin E's heart overjoyed, but his face was full of regret: "Lord Fu Yin is very concerned about the case involved in Shuiyue Nunnery, and he has ordered the government to do its best to investigate. In just one day, only Daxing and Wanping counties have been ascertained, and the evidence of Shuiyue'an's crime is conclusive!"

Scold......

"The moon in the water, the moon in the water; What is the Moon in the Water? Emptiness too."

Jia Cong suddenly thought of such a sentence, and asked with a sigh, "Lord Qin, my ancestor built this nunnery just to leave a piece of pure land, why did it become so dirty?"

Qin E asked rhetorically, "Lord Yucat, you are in love. Rongguo's original intention was to leave a pure land, but how could this Buddhism ever be pure?"

"Lord Qin is wise, Cong has been taught!"

Jia Cong bowed to him, he changed his indifferent expression again, looked at Jing Xu, who was leaning on the porch in a cold sweat, and reprimanded: "Raising money and debts, touting lawsuits, disregarding human lives, abducting and trafficking in human beings, secretly accepting Fengyue, and harboring evil intentions, such a filthy Shuiyue Nunnery is actually the family temple of Ning Rongjia's family. Lord Qin, if you should investigate, you will be arrested......

"Third Master Cong, no!"

Jingxu finally saw Jia Cong's determination, she originally thought that the Jia family would suppress this matter for the sake of fame, but Jia Cong would let Shuntianfu enter the nunnery without any scruples.

Under the ground of the nunnery, there are still tens of thousands of taels of silver? Those ledgers and ledgers are still in the secret compartment of her house.

Qin E's eyes showed a glimmer of light, no wonder the two saints favored this royal cat lord so much, and the pattern of the people was ...... Tsk, the reaction of the Liguo Mansion is several different from the people of the Royal Cat.

The officials of the Shuntian Mansion moved quickly, and Qin E personally led the team and began to search carefully from room to room.

The main hall and the side hall did not find anything in the places where the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were found, but in the quiet room, all kinds of account books and letters turned out several boxes, and they were stacked almost more than the Buddhist scriptures placed in her room.

Jia Cong flipped through a few pages at random, and when he looked horizontally and vertically, he saw two words: cannibalism!

It is really ironic that the disciples of Buddhism are actually doing cannibalism.

Syllable!

Jia Cong turned around and slapped Jingxu's face. Jingxu, who was tied up, didn't have Fang Cai's fear, but sneered and said, "Third Master Cong is really iron-faced and selfless, but after Third Master Cong's righteous act of killing relatives spreads to Jiangnan, what will Second Master Lian think?"

Syllable!

Jia Cong slapped it again, and Jingxu's pretty face, which was still charming, instantly became red and swollen.

"Do you think that if you do these evil things in the name of the second sister-in-law, you can throw the crime on the second sister-in-law's head? You're underestimating you."

Jingxu seemed to have fallen into madness, laughing and looking at Jia Cong, her lips trembling, she said cruelly, "Where does Third Master Cong think the poor nun got the capital to put the money in Yinzi? Third Master Cong felt that the poor nun's seal money had been left for so long, why did no one dare to make trouble? Where did the silver go? The poor nun went to the prison of Shuntian Mansion, and neither the second grandmother nor the Rongguo Mansion could escape the responsibility."

"Brother Cong, Master Jingxu...... This old thief really sent the silver into the mansion and handed it over to Sister Feng!"

Jia Baoyu, who had been languishing and taciturn, flipped through the account book, suddenly exclaimed and handed the account book in his hand to Jia Cong.

I saw that this account book clearly recorded the flow of gold and silver in the third and fourth years of Yuan You, of which nearly seven or eight thousand taels of silver were sent to the Rongguo Mansion at the end of the year.

And the person who can take care of the house is Jia Lian's daughter-in-law and Wang Xifeng, the head of Rongguo Mansion.

Among them, there is also a simple reply letter from Wang Xifeng at the end of the third year of Yuan You, saying that since the incense in the nunnery is good, then prepare more incense candles and other things for pilgrims to worship the Buddha.

As for the name seal that Jingxu asked for, Wang Xifeng really sent a post stamped with the first-class general and his own private seal in order to facilitate the Dharma of Shuiyue'an.

It seems that Jingxu has long left himself with all kinds of back roads, and he actually turned the Jia family's family temple into a nunnery with flourishing incense, not only often going out to do the Buddhist rituals for people, but also accepting the Buddha incense from the believers.

Then the dirty silver obtained was sent to Wang Xifeng's hands in the name of incense money, and by the way, he deceived Rongguofu and Wang Xifeng's posts.

If Wang Xifeng learned about the post she sent, she would have become the confidence for Jingxu to do these dirty things, and it is estimated that she would vomit to death.

The shrewd Wang Xifeng was actually tricked by the seemingly honest Jingxu, and Jia Cong could imagine what happened when Wang Xifeng learned about it.

Jia Cong glanced at the crazy Jingxu coldly, and sneered, "Do you think that this can force Rongguo Mansion to give you the aftermath? Heh......"

"It doesn't matter whether the poor nun lives or dies, the reputation of Ning Rongjia's family, the reputation of Lian's second grandmother, isn't the third master Cong worried?"

Jingxu seemed to feel that she had settled on the Jia family, and she was proud when she thought about her later moves.

It's a pity that Jia Cong just sneered, and walked to Qin E, who was directing the search, with the account book.

"Lord Qin, look at this ......"

Qin E took the account book suspiciously and flipped through it carefully, and when he saw the place about Wang Xifeng, his face became solemn.

However, after reading the letter and prayer post sandwiched inside, I was relieved.

「

The numbers are not right, they are far behind."

Not only did the numbers match, but there was a place in the ledger that frightened him: Du Taiwei was in charge of the county Bofu Wang family.

He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that there is a hidden story behind this case, fortunately, the lower official is here today, if it drags on for another year or two, it will be a crime if it is not a crime."

Jia Cong's eyebrows were raised, and he arched his hand and said, "Lord Qin's discernment, this case still depends on Lord Qin's in-depth investigation and my family's innocence. The Jia family needs to cooperate, but please command!"

"Lord Yucat laughed, this case is all over the world, where can the officials be the masters."

Jia Cong's words are beautiful, and Qin E will not shirk. However, as Qin E said, this case is no longer something that he, a six-rank promoter, can decide, and it is another shocking case with three divisions tried at the same time.

"My lord, there is a secret room underneath, and there are nearly 70,000 taels of silver hidden inside."

Qin E smiled bitterly, he snapped and closed the account book, and arched his hand and said, "Xia Guan has checked three Buddhist temples in the past two days, which can be regarded as an eye-opener. Do you know how much money the lower officials have confiscated in the past two days?"

"More than 100,000?"

Jia Cong's blind guess was one hundred and eight thousand miles away, Qin E stretched out five fingers, shook his head and said, "With the silver here, it totals five hundred and thirty thousand taels. This is not counting the land property of the famous temple, sometimes the lower officials feel that they are not as good as the monks and nuns in the temple, at least they are much richer than me!"

The people of Shuntianfu came and went in a hurry.

The carriage formed a long line, pulling the account books, letters, gold and silver and other items found in the Suigetsu Nunnery, and left quickly.

Qin E got Jia Cong's hint and quietly sent someone to Ningguo Mansion to find the old patriarch of the Jia family, Master Jing. c

Shuiyue'an, from the presiding over Jingxu to the handyman maids, was all tied up and escorted away by the people of Shuntianfu.

Baoyu sat slumped on the dirty ground, looking depressed.

The little girl Mingyan wanted to say something comforting, but she cowered aside, peeked at Jia Cong, who looked indifferent, and opened her mouth but didn't dare to speak.

Jia Shiyi stepped forward and whispered, "Little Third Master, Grandma Rong is here."
