Chapter 66: A Vicious Trick
When the two of them left the county guard's mansion, Chen Mohuai also ordered someone to take a bag of silver taels out, saying that they were letting Shao Xi and the others be entangled on the road, and they were finally pushed back by Lao Wu.
Chen Mohuai laughed, he naturally understood the truth that benefits can be gained, but reputation cannot be lost, these officials in the capital regard reputation as more important than life, and will never damage their reputation because of a few silver coins, so they no longer insist.
Shao Xi was in no mood to deal with them anymore at this time, all he wanted to do now was to hurry to the prison, wait until dawn to pick up Ye Ziyuan, and then leave this Qingshan City without looking back and never come back.
Outside the prison, Lao Wu said to Shao Xi: "Young master, let's wait under the tree!" It's always not good to be seen by the jailers at this gate. ”
"Okay, we'll wait under the tree, it won't be long before dawn anyway."
So they tied their horses to a tree and sat down under it until dawn.
Put down Shao Xi and the others, and don't say anything outside the prison.
Chen Mohuai sent the two away and returned to the mansion, and all the officials in the county also left after drinking and eating, only Cai Cheng and Liu Zhushu remained in the mansion.
"Master Liu, in the past few days, due to the theft of the treasury and the arson case of the first treasury, the money in the private treasury has not had time to distribute the accounts, you and Cai Cheng go to the treasury to take out the account books, and we will do the accounts tonight, and when the two adults leave tomorrow, we can distribute the money."
"What my lord said is that I will go with Governor Cai to take out the account books."
After saying that, the two turned around and left, and went straight to the back garden.
Chen Mohuai stroked the beard on his chin, thinking about what had happened in the past few days.
The account book was stolen, because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, he arranged for Liang Daoqian to go to the fire armory, and he didn't want this goods to kill Kuding, but he was really ineffective, this person could not stay, and after going back and reporting the case to the Criminal Department, he would find another opportunity to arrange for someone to remove him and kill him.
Now that the records of the treasury and silver have been recovered, I think that even if the two adults in the capital get the stolen account book, they will not be able to file a complaint without supporting evidence. However, this incident has also reminded me that we must be cautious and careful in the future and not make such mistakes again.
Recently, all the thieves in the county have sent silver treasures one after another, this business without a book to do, the silver money is really profitable, and the money will be divided tomorrow, and it is also a good choice to take a concubine in another room. In addition, it is time to find a few more beautiful girls for his precious son, lest he either stare at the maids in the house or scratch all over the streets.
Chen Mohuai was making plans beautifully, but when he heard Cai Cheng running back from behind shouting, his heart sank, what happened in this private vault that made Cai Cheng so nervous?
"What are you yelling in the middle of the night? What happened? ”
"Big ......, my lord, something is wrong, the account books in the library are gone."
Chen Mohuai jumped up from the chair as if he had been burned to the buttocks, "What did you say?" The books are missing? How could it not be seen? The cellar is so secret, only the three of us know where it is, how can the account books be stolen? Say, "Which of you two has ever divulged about the Vault?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Cai Cheng and Master Liu were frightened, and their heads shook like rattles, if something went wrong in their bodies, they were afraid that their lives would be lost.
Chen Mohuai was so anxious that he walked around on the ground, he couldn't figure out how someone could go in and steal the account books in such a secret place? It's incredible, who is the one who did it? Could it be that the female thief Ye Zikite still has accomplices?
Right! It must be Ye Ziyuan and his accomplices, otherwise I really can't think of anyone else who can know where the account books are, then Ye Ziyuan can steal the account books of the treasury, and it is possible to know that there is another account book in the county guard's mansion. Now that Ye Ziyuan has been arrested, it must be an accomplice who stole the account books in the private vault in order to save her.
Thinking of this, Chen Mohuai said to Cai Cheng angrily: "It must be that female thief and accomplices, and now in order to save her, she has stolen the account books in the private treasury as bargaining chips for exchange with us, and there is no one in her eyes." Cai Cheng, you immediately rush to the prison to bring the female thief out of the prison, whether you are tortured or persuaded by good words, you must ask for a meridian, at least take back the account book in her hand. Remember, as long as people don't die, you can hand over those two adults tomorrow, and you can use any means. ”
"Huh?"
Cai Cheng was dumbfounded when he heard this, today's adults of "Jing Chengsi" just wanted to go, and repeatedly told him to take care of him, and now if he goes to prison and beats this woman half to death, tomorrow the two adults will see it, and they don't want his head?
"My lord, it's not that the lower officials are unwilling to do things for the adults, but the two adults of the 'Jing Chengsi' have just taken people out of our hands during the day, and this matter is promised by your own mouth, my lord, and now if I go to make this woman not human, ghost or ghost, I'm afraid those two adults will not give up!"
Chen Mohuai also had a headache when he heard it, he couldn't beat it, he couldn't scold it, now the two account books are outside, if he doesn't find one, something will definitely happen.
"Then you say, what do you say should be done about this? We can't do nothing, can we? ”
If you don't say that this Cai Cheng is wilted and wilted! With a roll of his eyes, he came up with a bad idea.
"Your Excellency, it is inconvenient for the county officials to come forward in this matter, otherwise they will be told by the two adults, but this matter cannot be handed over to outsiders, and we must find someone we can trust. I don't think it's as good as this, so the son-in-law of an adult came forward to interrogate the female prisoner in prison, just like your lord, as you said, as long as people don't die, any means can be used, and the son-in-law of the adult in terms of women is better than us! ”
Chen Mohuai rolled his eyes, "It's just nonsense, he's my son, and when things come out, aren't the two people in the capital coming to me?" What's the difference between that and you going? ”
"Don't worry, my lord, think about it, if I wait to go, the two adults will know that you sent it without asking, but if the son in your house goes, you just don't know, and then only say that the son has admired the Ye Zi Kite girl of Nalan Xiufang for a long time, and it is really difficult to help but go to the prison to meet the Ye Zi Kite, even if something happens, you can also deduce that the godson is not strict, and you don't have to bear the responsibility behind the back."
There seems to be some truth in thinking about this, but to come up with such a bad idea, even Chen Mohuai thinks that Cai Cheng is out of the water, which is also a special loss.
"Alright! That's the only way to do it for now, you go and call my unscrupulous son. ”
"Okay."
Cai Cheng responded, and ran to find Chen Hanbin, still thinking that he finally didn't pull himself in, whoever he loves is unlucky!
In just a moment's effort, Cai Cheng brought over the ugly ghost who had no one before and no one after him.
"Oh, I said Daddy! I just coaxed the peony into my room, and the skirt was about to fall off, Cai Chengcheng pulled me out, aren't you delaying my business? What's the big deal about getting me here in such a hurry? ”
Chen Mohuai's face was cloudy for a while, the maid named Peony had been thinking about him for a long time, and he didn't expect this kid to almost succeed today, but fortunately he called him over. But this is not the time to dwell on this kind of thing, so I eased my face.
"Son, have you ever heard of Miss Ye Ziyuan from Lanxiufang? It's the number one Oiran. ”
As soon as Chen Hanbin heard Ye Ziji's name, his two thin slit-like eyes instantly emitted green light, and he kept swallowing his saliva.
"Of course I know her, that little girl is earth-shattering! I went to Lanxiufang several times and wanted her to spend the night with me, but that little girl was very tall and didn't want to pay attention to me! ”
Chen Mohuai smiled sadly: "Now there is an opportunity for you to kiss Fangze, are you willing?" ”
As soon as Chen Hanbin heard this, his whole person was like being beaten with chicken blood, and he bared his buckteeth and asked, "Really, fake?" As long as I can sleep with this little, I'm willing to do whatever I want. ”
"This Ye Zi Kite is the famous female thief 'Moon Flying Kite' from my Qingshan City recently, and now she has been captured and locked in a prison, tonight I will send you to the prison to ask her about the whereabouts of an account book, no matter what means you use, as long as you ask the whereabouts of the account book, on the premise of not taking her life, do whatever you want to do to her, are you willing?"
"What do you say? She's the female snitch? This is so exciting, the top brand Oiran plus female snitch, this is exciting to play! ”
Chen Mohuai looked at Chen Hanbin's virtue, and said in his heart, I don't need to mobilize this, he himself is more active than anyone else. So, he took a token out of his arms and handed it to Chen Hanbin.
"This is the pass token of the government prison, if anyone asks in the future, don't say that I gave it to you, just say that you stole it from my study, can you remember?"
"Remember, remember, Dad, whatever you say is what you say." As he spoke, Chen Hanbin snatched the token into his hand.
Chen Mohuai turned his head and said to Cai Cheng again: "Cai Cheng, you take him to the prison, and when you get nearby, let him go in by himself, don't you follow." ”
Cai Cheng hurriedly nodded and agreed: "Xiaguan understands, Xiaguan understands, I will wait outside when I send Gongzi to that vicinity, and the rest will be handed over to Gongzi." ”
"Well, go ahead! This matter must be handled well, and the account books must be returned, otherwise you and I will be in big trouble. ”
"Xia Guan understands!"
After Cai Cheng responded, he turned his head and said to Chen Hanbin: "Childe, the matter explained by the county guard is very important, you must ask the whereabouts of the account book, and other things can be as you like." ”
At this time, the ugly ghost's heart was full of Ye Ziyuan, and he was already impatient to rush to the prison, so he kept responding to "yes, yes, yes", and had already raised his legs and ran outside the mansion.
What a bunch of brutes who have lost their conscience!
