Chapter 274: King Yue is going to be angry
King Yue didn't expect Leng Lanzhi to appear, so he was stunned for a moment before explaining: "This king doesn't know what's going on, and he only stopped to ask about the situation when he heard there was movement here." ”
He was slightly vigilant in his heart.
How did it come by such a coincidence?
But he soon relaxed.
Come on, come on, she's fine.
It just so happened that her own sister was a witness to testify against the prince for misappropriating the money from the department.
Thinking so in his heart, he didn't show it on his face, and asked Leng Lanzhi with a smile: "Jia Luo, why are you here?" ”
Leng Lanzhi said lightly: "I just came out of the palace, and I was tired of walking the original road, so I thought about changing the way to change my mood." ”
King Yue thought that what she said about changing her mood meant that the prince was fascinated by Qiu Wenwen, and his heart became more and more relaxed: "I see, since I am here, let's see what happened together." ”
At that time, there were already officers and soldiers who pushed the sneaky man out.
King Yue's determined expression froze for a moment when he saw that person, and his smile froze.
Leng Lanzhi showed a surprised expression: "Hey, isn't this the fifth brother's advisor?" I remember his name ...... Xu Shifan? ”
King Yue had a calm face, and did not answer Leng Lanzhi's question, but looked at Xu Shifan coldly: "What are you doing here?" ”
It stands to reason that the person who was caught should be the Prince's Mansion or Leng Lanzhi's person, how could it be Xu Shifan?
Xu Shifan was about to speak, but Leng Lanzhi said lightly: "Didn't the fifth brother say just now, this person is sneaky at the entrance of the household department, and he must have bad intentions." Perhaps, he has some murder weapon hidden on his body, and he wants to be unfavorable to the household. ”
He immediately ordered to the officers and soldiers below: "Search your body!" ”
King Yue's heart skipped a beat.
Although he didn't know what was going on, he felt that he must not let people search for Xu Shifan, so he hurriedly stopped: "This king remembered that in the evening, this king sent him to do something nearby, and he definitely didn't bring anything with him, let alone be unfavorable to the household." ”
Leng Lanzhi shook his head slightly, looking very concerned: "Fifth brother, you don't know your heart, you trust him, and he has to be worthy of your trust." ”
Immediately, he said to several officers and soldiers: "Search!" ”
"Yes!"
The officers and soldiers immediately firmly controlled Xu Shifan and turned around on him.
Soon, someone turned out something that turned out to be a stack of silver tickets.
The face value of each silver ticket is 1,000 taels, and the 180 silver tickets are a total of 180,000 taels.
Leng Lanzhi immediately sank his face: "Come on, escort this thief who stole the silver from the household treasury to Dali Temple!" ”
He looked at King Yue with an expressionless face: "Fifth brother, it turns out that this is what you sent him to do?" You're a real punishment! ”
King Yue's face changed: "This king doesn't!" ”
Leng Lanzhi smiled coldly: "Is there any, it doesn't matter if you say it, it doesn't count if the palace says it, it doesn't matter if your father says it!" ”
It didn't take long for the palace to receive the news.
Emperor Jianliang was furious and immediately ordered someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.
The people of Dali Temple went to the treasury of the household department to count the accounts, and sure enough, they found that there were 180,000 taels missing from the treasury of the household department.
The most important thing is that the things of the housekeeper in the warehouse, whether it is money or goods, whether it is a silver ticket or a silver bar, are marked.
If it is a silver bar, the bottom of the silver bar will be engraved with the words of official silver, and if it is a silver ticket, the government treasury will not only check the face value of the silver ticket, but also record the silver village and ticket number of the silver ticket.
The 180 silver tickets found from Xu Shifan's body were all silver tickets stored in the household department, and there was no way to deny them.
And Xu Shifan was King Yue's person, and King Yue personally admitted that night that he sent Xu Shifan to run errands near the household.
In this way, even if Emperor Jianliang wanted to believe him, there was no way to say that this matter had nothing to do with him in his conscience.
King Yue was about to die of anger.
The point, he didn't know what was going on at all?
He sent Xu Shifan out that night to make the illusion of a thief in the household department, so that the people in the household department could investigate the treasury and bring out the old bottom of the prince's embezzlement of public funds.
He didn't know why Xu Shifan would carry the 180,000 taels of silver from the household department!
The most important thing is that he did arrange for a suspicious person to hang out near the household, so that he could find a way to investigate the household, and even directly frame the prince.
Because the person he was looking for was the guard of the Prince's Mansion.
The devil knows why the thief became Xu Shifan?!
At that time, the queen and the crown prince were also wondering about this question: "Garo, what is going on?" ”
Leng Lanzhi smiled: "It's very simple, I just took advantage of their conspiracy and treated them in the way of others." ”
King Yue wanted Xu Shifan to work overtime to break into the household department at night, creating the illusion that the household department was a thief, so that the household department could justifiably conduct a large search to make sure that no important information, archives and valuables were lost.
And this check, the lack of 180,000 taels in the warehouse will be exposed.
Leng Lanzhi has been waiting for King Yue to make a move, and when her subordinates found out that there were always sneaking around the household in the past few days, she asked He Shangshu to leave a suitable time to do it, and let the thief hear the discussion of the people in the household department before the estimated time.
"It's strange, just now these silver tickets are missing 180,000 taels, why did they appear again? Did I count wrong? ”
"Hey, you must have miscounted! The treasury is counted every day, and if there is really so much money missing, it will have exploded a long time ago. ”
When Xu Shifan heard these conversations, he was really suspicious, so after prying the door of the treasury of the account opening department, he deliberately counted the silver tickets, checked the account books placed in the warehouse, and found that the number of silver tickets was completely right, and when he thought about it, he took away the silver tickets worth 180,000 taels.
Then, he was caught.
As for the traitor in the prince's mansion, although she failed to find out the identity of the other party in advance, as long as the other party acted, she would be caught.
The current situation is that King Yue can't save Xu Shifan, otherwise it will be difficult to explain his motives for saving people.
Not only can they not be saved, but they also have to kill people.
Otherwise, there is no guarantee that Xu Shifan will not say anything that should not be said.
The prince sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect the fifth child to hide so deeply." ”
In the past, he only guarded against the third child, which really responded to that sentence, the dog that can bite people does not bark.
It was rare to enter the palace, and he finally remembered Qiu Wenwen.
As long as he thought of Qiu Wenwen, he couldn't control himself a little, and immediately wanted to see her.
The queen looked at her son's anxious appearance, and was angry in her heart: "The imperial doctor said that she needs to recuperate recently." Moreover, she is a folk woman, and she must study the rules well to be the biological mother of the prince's heir.
Don't bother her these days, let her learn the rules. ”
The prince's face was overjoyed: "The queen mother agreed to let Wenwen enter the prince's mansion?" ”
The queen said vaguely: "When she successfully gives birth to an heir, let her live in the prince's mansion." ”
It's weird.
There are still more than eight months, maybe after not seeing each other for such a long time, the prince will get bored.
On the other hand, Qiu Wenwen heard about Xu Shifan's matter and was so anxious.
She scolded Xu Shifan in her heart, but she also understood that just scolding people in her heart had no effect, and she had to find a way.
Either you will fish people out, or you will ...... People can never speak.
***
Leng Lanzhi heard the report of the flowing yarn, and a touch of deep thought crossed his eyes.
Qiu Wenwen is too concerned about King Yue's affairs?
Although she is a person of King Yue, King Yue may even be kind to her, but ...... She is now a woman who is pregnant with the heir of the prince.
Although there is still the crown princess and the child in the crown princess's belly on the head, it may not be impossible to fight.
Her behavior is not logical.
Unless...... She has a deeper relationship with the people in the Yue King's camp.
"Find a way to let her meet with King Yue."
