Chapter 188: It Was an Accident
A house opposite the back door of the largest gambling house in the capital is quiet in the middle of the noise, and few people set foot on it.
But today there are guests in the house.
"Master Qian, wait a minute, I'll go back to Mr. Yuming." Shen Jingshan Road.
"I'm sorry Brother Shen." Lord Qian accompanied the smiling face.
Shen Jingshan entered and came out in a moment: "Mr. Ming, please come in." β
Master Qian thanked him and entered the Lingxiao Pavilion.
Shen Jingshan looked at the closed door, his smile faded, and his eyes turned gloomy.
After a quarter of an hour or so, Lord Qian came out sweating. Shen Jingshan sent him out, only then did he turn around and enter the Lingxiao Pavilion, under the candlelight, a figure could be vaguely seen through the gauze screen.
"What's wrong?" Shen Jingshan asked coldly.
The humanity behind the screen: "Dali Temple wants to re-investigate Jia Liu's death, and today Dali Temple Qing Gu personally went to the Ordnance Prison." β
"What's the flaw?"
"Lord Qian doesn't know."
Shen Jingshan snorted coldly: "A bunch of waste, this little thing can't be done." β
"The surname Feng and the surname Hu can't stay, I've asked Lord Qian to arrange it."
Shen Jingshan said: "You can do this matter yourself, don't let Gu Zhou stop to find out the clues, his nose is smarter than a dog." β
The person behind the screen replied respectfully: "Yes." β
Here, Gu Zhouzhu and Jiang Wanning returned to Dali Temple after dinner.
The two of them split up and wrote down what they saw.
Gu Zhou stopped simply, and it didn't take long to finish writing, and he looked sideways at Jiang Wanning, who was still struggling to write.
Under the soft candlelight, the fold from her eyebrows, eyes, nose to chin was delicate like a silhouette, and Gu Zhou couldn't help but be stunned.
Nan Yu rarely used to write by himself, and every time he wanted to write something, Nan Yu would catch him as a coolie.
β¦β¦ Gu Zhou stopped, I said, you write.
Even Xiao Wang got a courtyard in Xishan and needed paintings to decorate, so she asked him to paint.
That's right.
β¦β¦ Among the people I know, you are the best to draw, who are you looking for? Big deal, I'll treat you to dinner.
He really didn't want to paint, and he couldn't see her decorating the courtyard as if it were her own.
But that's her home in the future! She is going to marry Xiao Wang after all.
So, he answered.
Thinking that there is a painting of him hanging in the most eye-catching place in the living room of her house, she can see it when she goes, and she will remember that this painting was painted by him, which is also very good.
Who knows, providence makes people.
She died, she came back, and now she sits in front of him.
Seeing that her ink was about to run out, Gu Zhou stopped and poured some water into the inkstone, picked up the ink strip and grinded it carefully.
Jiang Wanning was engrossed, writing while reminiscing, and didn't notice that Gu Zhou stopped at helping her study ink.
After a long time, Jiang Wanning stopped writing: "It's almost." β
As soon as he turned his head, he leaned over at some point, and the distance between the two was less than half a foot, and he could feel his warm breath on her forehead.
Jiang Wanning felt that her ears were starting to heat up again, so she hurriedly lowered her head and said, "I've written it." β
Gu Zhou stopped staring at her ears, the small and soft earlobes were turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the cuteness made people want to pinch them.
But he still held back, gently put down the ink strip, and got closer by taking what she had written silently, almost softly whispering in her ear: "I'll see." β
Jiang Wanning only felt that her ears seemed to be teased by feathers, she was not sure if Gu Zhouzhu was intentional, Gu Zhouzhu was a righteous gentleman who couldn't be more upright.
"Look at my silence too." Gu Zhou stopped to see that her little ears were red and were about to drip blood, so he couldn't help laughing, put the warehouse register he had written silently in front of her, and said seriously: "You and I will exchange opinions later." β
Jiang Wanning's heart was pounding, and she thought: She must have been thinking too much, it was an accident just now.
Settle your mind and look carefully at the data on paper.
Gu Zhouzhu didn't doubt at all that there were discrepancies in the data she had written, and he was only amazed at how she had memorized hundreds of data, even if he couldn't do it.
Looking at it, Gu Zhou frowned: "There is no shortage of ore, but there is less production, is the quantity of ore fake when registered, or is the amount of steel obtained after smelting fake?" β
"You should check the records of the mine over there, if it is correct, then the problem is after smelting, if it is not ......"
As he was talking, Zheng Guan came back.
Zheng Guan saw the two sitting side by side, his eyes turned back and forth on the faces of the two, and he only felt as if he had come at the wrong time.
Jiang Wanning hurriedly got up and left Gu Zhou's bookcase.
Gu Zhou stopped and said casually: "How is the investigation?" β
"Back to the adult, the small one did not enter the military weapons prison, and asked for a reason to find friends, and invited the two craftsmen of the weapons prison to dinner, coincidentally, these two people recognized Jia Jianzuo, and after a clichΓ©, I learned that Jia Jianzuo would occasionally go to dinner with his colleagues, but Jia Jianzuo never drank, every time others persuaded him, he said that his wife was not allowed to drink, otherwise he would not be able to enter the house, everyone laughed at him for being afraid of the inside, and he didn't care."
"The small one also inquired, Hu Bin and Feng Chao don't have much contact with Jia Jian Zuo on weekdays, Hu Bin is from Jiafang, Feng Chao is in charge of the Metallurgical Department, the small one listens to their meaning, many people in the ordnance prison think that Jia Jianzuo's death is not clear, and they discuss it in private, and then Lord Qian ordered that everyone is not allowed to talk about it anymore, and the offender is expelled from the ordnance superintendent, and everyone will not dare to talk about it."
Gu Zhou stopped thoughtfully: "It seems that the problem of ordnance supervision is not small. β
Even the people in the ordnance superintendent feel that there is a problem, then there must be a problem.
"Mo Yu, you will keep an eye on Lord Qian tomorrow."
Mo Yu responded.
"It's not too early, I'll go to the palace tomorrow, and I'll discuss everything after I leave the palace." As he spoke, Gu Zhou stopped looking at Jiang Wanning: "I'll send you back." β
Jiang Wanning said: "My lord, no need, Xiao Pan is outside." β
Gu Zhou stopped and said: I made a mistake, I should have sent Xiao Pan away as soon as possible.
Without an excuse to send each other, Gu Zhou had no choice but to give up.
Jiang Wanning returned to Jiang's house, and as soon as she entered the house, she saw her brother Jiang Shi sitting in her room.
"Brother, how late is this, why are you in my room?"
Jiang Shi rolled his eyes: "You also know that it's late?" β
Jiang Wanning sneered: "I'm going to do business." β
"What's the business? Are you an official of Dali Temple or a poor person of Dali Temple? Do you want to be so concerned about the affairs of Dali Temple? β
Jiang Wanning was surprised: "How do you know that I went to Dali Temple?" β
Jiang Shi snorted coldly: "Someone has seen it." β
My own guy went to deliver the goods, passed by Dali Temple, and happened to see Xiao Pan driving a carriage past the front door of Dali Temple and turning to the back door.
Jiang Wanning sat down: "Brother, this time it's the little county king who has an accident, I definitely have to help, don't I?" β
When Jiang Shi heard this, he was curious: "What can happen to the little county king?" Except for the emperor, who can touch him? β
"This matter is a bit complicated, brother, have our family's carriages and horses been rolled out here in the capital?"
"What are you asking for?"
"I'll just ask."
The Jiang family runs several businesses, the biggest of which is silk, well salt, and carriage and horse shops.
After completing the north, it can be said that Jiang Ji's carriages and horses are all over Daqi.
"It's been laid out a long time ago, look at you, the family's business doesn't care at all." Jiang Shi said.
Jiang Wanning's eyebrows curled: "The family's business has a father and three brothers, how can I get involved, but I may have to use our family's car and horse shop recently to inquire about some news." β
