Chapter 185 It’s hard to be a good person
Hundreds of thousands of taels of gold and silver treasures disappeared from the Xie Mansion. This was not only a blow to the family's vitality, but also a slap in the face. No matter how Xie Mingyuan considered it, he would never let it go.
When Luo Cheng heard about such a big thief, even though he didn't think much of Xie Mingyuan, for the sake of the security of the entire Yuzhou Prefecture and because the silver would soon belong to the national treasury, he borrowed the soldiers without hesitation.
In addition, he also had a selfish motive. He wanted to see who this powerful person was and who could come and go freely in the residence of an imperial official, more freely than entering and leaving his own kitchen.
Officials from the government office had already blocked all the intersections, and everyone leaving the city or passing through had to be questioned and inspected.
As soon as Luo Cheng's troops arrived, they began a comprehensive manhunt, causing panic and curiosity among the people.
As for Chen Chuan, Xie Mingyuan was so worried at the moment that he had no time to bother with him and had long forgotten about him.
Nowadays, the topic of conversation in the entire Qingchuan County is the theft in Governor Xie’s mansion.
The common people didn't know that Xie Mingyuan had collected money to exchange for his life, but the officials of Yuzhou Prefecture knew about it. These people also privately and reasonably suspected that he was directing and acting in the drama himself.
After all, the amount of money embezzled by Prefect Xie was not a small amount.
What's more, some people are reluctant to spend the money, so they become active in thinking.
"what?"
Jiang Hao was shocked when he heard what Chen Chuan said: "Zhir Tong Xu's house was also robbed?"
Chen Chuan was holding the teapot and pouring tea, looking calm and composed: "Yes, now, General Luo's troops have doubled."
The residences of two imperial officials were robbed in succession. The officials in charge of public security were probably shaking like sieves this time.
Jiang Hao glanced at Chen Chuan meaningfully and asked, "It won't be you again this time, will it?"
"What do you mean?"
Chen Chuan refused to admit it, and then lowered his voice and said, "You never believe me when I tell you the truth. It's hard to be a good person. Last time I went to Prefect Xie's house just to make trouble and vent my anger. But I saw a man in night clothes walking in and out of the backyard as if no one was around. I didn't do anything, and I didn't see the man take anything away. I think the things that Prefect Xie lost are still in their house..."
It was just a coincidence that he happened to see it that night.
But he himself is a "thief" and the other party did not take anything, so of course he would not shout "Stop thief".
However, no matter how he explained, Jiang Hao didn't believe it.
Jiang Hao didn't expect that Chen Chuan actually saw it at that time. After listening to his explanation, he snorted: "Since you saw it, why didn't you chase after it?"
Catch up?
He is not an old man who wants to hang himself because he thinks he is too old, so why bother to meddle in his affairs?
"Auntie, I cherish my life very much."
She saw it!
The two of them drank tea at Siyuan Teahouse until mid-afternoon, and Jiang Hao left before Chen Chuan.
As soon as Chen Chuan left the teahouse, two figures walked out from the next room.
"Sir, Miss Jiang and this man should just be friends."
Zhang Zhongjing looked at Chen Chuan's back and explained, "However, I have to ask Zhuifeng to investigate and find out where this person came from."
Xu Xing felt a little strange when he heard Zhang Zhongjing's words. He glanced at him and said, "I really need to check it out. Bring him to see me."
Zhang Zhongjing obviously misunderstood what he said, and immediately said angrily: "Don't worry, sir. I will ask Zhuifeng and Jinglei to do it immediately, and I guarantee that you will be satisfied."
Humph! Boy, you are in big trouble.
