Escape after crossing
Chapter 116 Tricky
Jiang Ziluo did not interrupt, waiting for Leng Chenming to continue. Leng Chenming did not keep him in suspense and continued.
"They only talked about topics related to women, children, and husbands, but the gifts they brought were fishy.
They just said that the gifts were just little trinkets for women, so the magistrate's wife had all the things put in her room and not allow anyone to touch them.
And they didn't look like big things, so I didn't pay much attention to them. But Xuan San took advantage of the fact that no one was around today and opened those things to take a look.
It contains the profits of each shop in a certain month, how much should be distributed, and the corresponding silver notes. "
"A shop? They opened this together?"
"No, this is bribe money. The amount of money is not small, I think Wu Shiyong is not the only one who got it.
They used this method not only to prevent the discovery of the money, but also to prevent people from investigating the whereabouts and use of the money. "
"Who is the person behind Wu Shiyong? Is it easy to find out now?"
"Mrs. Wu Shiyong's surname is Chen. She is the current queen and the adopted sister of the emperor's uncle. On the surface, they no longer have any contact after General Chen passed away, but if you look closely, there are still clues to be found."
"The Second Prince's men? General Chen, the uncle of the emperor, is stationed in the south, and they have collected so much money..."
Jiang Ziluo didn't finish her words, she knew Leng Chenming would understand the meaning better than her.
"What you said is possible. I have asked people to continue the investigation, but it is certain that Wu Shiyong is the second prince's man.
There is another piece of news. The people Wu Shiyong sent out yesterday rushed to Kyoto today to report that the Ninth Prince has been infected with the plague and is in critical condition. "
"This news is Dongfeng? Why?"
Leng Chenming was also puzzled. This could only be bad news. What could it be? Leng Chenming did not answer Jiang Ziluo's question.
Jiang Ziluo did not ask any more questions. She did not want to get involved in these matters. At this time, Xuan San also brought the food, but it was just some porridge.
There was a waiter behind him carrying some dishes. Jiang Ziluo thought, is this it? Porridge for lunch?
Xuan San put down the porridge and said, "Master, Miss Jiang, the shopkeeper said that there is no seafood delivered today, so I made seafood porridge for lunch."
"Seafood?" When Jiang Ziluo heard the word seafood, he looked into the porridge bowl. If the porridge was served in a small bowl, Jiang Ziluo's nose would probably smell it at night.
Leng Chenming said to Xuan San, "You should go down and eat too."
Xuan San responded and left the private room, leaving only the two of them in the room. Since Jiang Ziluo came into this world, he had never eaten any other seafood except fish and river shrimps.
When I heard the word seafood, I wanted to see what it was. But I couldn't tell what it was, and the person sitting opposite me didn't even start eating.
The two of them just watched, and after a while, Jiang Ziluo spoke up. "Well, Prince, don't you want to eat?"
Leng Chenming was not looking at the porridge without eating it, he just thought of something, but it flashed through his mind and he didn't have time to grasp it, so he was wondering what it was?
"Please come in, young lady." Leng Chenming came back to his senses and invited her directly.
"Then I won't be polite." After hearing what Leng Chenming said, Jiang Ziluo was no longer polite. He took the spoon and bowl and started to serve.
She filled a bowl and planned to eat it herself, but when she looked up and saw Leng Chenming looking at her, she gave the bowl away.
Leng Chenming seemed to be waiting for Jiang Ziluo to serve him. He didn't even say any polite words. He simply thanked him and started eating.
Jiang Ziluo served himself another bowl and couldn't wait to take a bite. It tasted quite fresh, but there was only some fish meat in it. The fish meat was very tender and elastic and tasted delicious.
But Jiang Ziluo couldn't taste what kind of fish it was. After finishing one bowl, Jiang Ziluo served himself another bowl. However, neither of them touched the dishes on the table.
After dinner, Jiang Ziluo told Leng Chenming about his morning idea of opening a cold drink shop. Leng Chenming agreed immediately and asked Xuan San to find someone to get some saltpeter.
After a while, Xuanyi also came back, and the news that the epidemic situation in the epidemic area had improved came out. Wu Shiyong naturally knew about this, but he thought that the three doctors used the antidote he gave them.
I didn't pay attention to this matter. Xuan Yi also brought back another piece of news. Wu Shijie was imprisoned by Wu Shiyong. At first, Wu Shiyong had no intention of locking him up.
Later, I thought that almost all the neighbors on the street had gone to see it. If it wasn't closed, people would talk about it, and that wouldn't be nice.
However, Wu Shiyong did not imprison Wu Shijie for murder, but put him in jail as a suspect.
Wu Shiyong asked Wu Shijie about what happened last night. Wu Shijie told him everything. Wu Shiyong had already received the news that Doctor Hu and the other man were missing, and now he heard from Wu Shijie that no one had been kidnapped.
Wu Shiyong was a little confused. If he was not arrested, then what happened in the meantime? The coroner's autopsy report.
The deceased's tendons in his hands and feet were cut, and he died of excessive bleeding. He was abused before his death...
This was written by the coroner. The coroner had thought about it when he was writing. He could write that the victim was raped, but the deceased was a man. So writing that the victim was violated was not so appropriate.
In the end, the coroner chose the word "waste". Wu Shijie, who was involved in the case, didn't say anything when he saw the report filled out by the coroner.
But Wu Shijie said, "Brother, this person is dead and was left in my house. It is obvious that this doctor Hu did it.
Now Doctor Hu is missing again. You said he knew that I sent the person, so why didn't he kill me? Now he's missing again. Is there some conspiracy behind this?"
Wu Shiyong did not answer Wu Shijie, but after listening to Wu Shijie's words, he suddenly felt that the things lost last night might be related to this Doctor Hu.
Wu Shiyong comforted Wu Shijie and left the cell. Wu Shiyong was ready for the worst. Now he didn't know where Doctor Hu was. He still had to find a scapegoat.
Of course, he didn't tell anyone these words, and he couldn't tell anyone. But thinking that he would receive the silver today, he stopped thinking about it.
Although there were some problems, the general direction was still in his hands. He always thought that things were good, but he didn't know that some things were no longer in his hands.
On Jiang Ziluo's side, Shopkeeper Zhang also made the iron plate that Jiang Ziluo needed, and Jiang Ziluo began to make cold noodles as a test.
After all, it was Jiang Ziluo’s first time making it. When she was a child, her grandmother Jiang often made it and said that the ones she made were delicious and chewy.
Jiang Ziluo put flour, water and salt into the noodle plate in proportion. Of course, when Jiang Ziluo was doing this, Manager Zhang asked someone to watch and learn.
After kneading the dough into a ball and letting it rest for half an hour, Jiang Ziluo cut the dough into several portions, giving one portion to Li Erniu who was following her, one portion to Xuan Yi, and one portion for herself.
Jiang Ziluo saw that there was still one portion left, so he planned to ask Manager Zhang to find another person, but who knew that Xuan San came instead.
He said he wanted to give it a try. Jiang Ziluo thought that this job didn't require any technical skills and the only thing required was a lot of strength.
So each of the four people was given a dough and a basin. They put water in the basin, put the dough in, and rubbed the dough back and forth.
