Chapter 266 The Theft of Internal Treasury (1) Second Update

“What a good deal! With my younger brother here, how can we let this piece of paper disappear? Whoever takes it will send it back obediently!”
< br>After Wu Chen finished speaking, he put the two banknotes into his arms and asked Yu Shian: "There are a lot of things that need to be added to this house. You put them down first, and I will repay you later."

Yu Shian snorted He said: "I can afford to give you some bunks, but there will be people who want to kill you when you walk on the road. You still need to put a few capable people to guard your house. Uncle Qin has some Kungfu can keep Datou safe in the next few days."

Wu Chen clasped his fists again and said, "Deputy Ambassador Yu has thought carefully. I will ask Xing Yun later if there is a suitable candidate."


Xu Da said: "I asked your sister-in-law to bring people over in the afternoon, but I still need to leave a few maids, and there is also someone who can do needlework..."

"No, please don't, just have a few handymen." , especially if someone is cooking in the kitchen, that’s fine "

Wu Chen said it very sincerely. In the eyes of others, Wu Chen was not a womanizer, but Wu Chen himself knew that he could not resist Wen Rouxiang, but he did not want to leave a love debt. If you still think about it when you go back in the future, you will harm others and yourself!

It is best to solve this problem from the root, that is, if you can’t even see it, then it will be fine.

Yu Shi'an smiled and said: "I knew it would be like this, so I didn't even bring the rough messenger..."

Before Yu Shian finished speaking, he saw Wu Chen looking towards the front yard.

"Is someone coming?" Yu Shian asked.

Wu Chen nodded and frowned.

After a while, Gu Shiming hurriedly walked into everyone's sight. Yu Shi'an was startled and asked in a low voice: "How could he come?"

Song Gu said: "Last night. It was he who was waiting at the inn and pointed out Chen Zhong’s residence. It was not difficult for him to know where Wu Chen’s new house was. ”

A few people didn't quite understand the meaning of Song Gu's words. Gu Shiming had already walked outside the pavilion and said loudly: "Last night you didn't tell me that the government rewarded you with a house. If I hadn't heard it from my servants, wouldn't I have Missed it and helped you move Opportunities? I have met Deputy Ambassador Yu, Song Tixing!"

Gu Shiming bowed to Yu Shian and Song Gu, and said:

"This house is not bad, but it is a bit small. It's Hube An official’s golden house hid his beauty. Later, the official committed a crime and all his property was confiscated..."

Before Gu Shiming finished his introduction, Wu Chen interrupted and said, "I don’t have anything, just for moving. Not with you."

Gu Shiming walked into the pavilion and whispered: "Chen Zhong's house was demolished last night, and now everyone in Kyoto knows about it, how will the officials punish you?"

The second year of high school students were shocked and asked: "Brother Wu was responsible for the razing of Sizun's mansion to the ground last night?"

Everyone looked at Gu Shiming with wide eyes.

Gu Shiming was a little confused, he asked: "You don't know?"

Wu Chen said: "I went by myself, why do they know?"

Gu Shiming pointed Song Gu: "Last night when you asked me where Sizun's family was, Song Tixing was there."

Song Gu smiled and said: "I was a little tired last night, so I took a rest first. There are some things that Wu Chen didn't let me talk about, so I couldn't speak first."

Wu Chen said: "It's not a big deal. "

The sophomore said anxiously: "How can you go alone? Why don't you call me?"
"What are you being asked to do? It's fine if I go alone. If I call you, how can you follow me to investigate the case in the future?"

Gu Shiming immediately said: "I came here also for this matter. , The official family promised you to recruit people at will, but you can’t leave me behind!”

"Why are you joining in the fun? This case is not fun. Do what you should do." Wu Chen waved his hand.

Gu Shiming said anxiously: "You want to investigate a case in Kyoto. Although your reputation is not small now, who knows you? As long as I am here, which yamen can you go to to ask someone for questioning?"

"Don't steal my job!" Yu Shi'an said quickly.

"Oh, Deputy Ambassador Yu and I are here to ensure that you get twice the result with half the effort in investigating the case! This is a good thing, and I don't need you to pay me a salary."

"You do think so! I said There are so many people involved in this case, it won’t do you any good to get involved, so why bother?”

Gu Shiming's eyes widened: "What benefit do I want? Being able to follow the investigation is a matter of gaining experience..."

"The prince ordered you to come?" Wu Chen asked in a low voice.

Gu Shiming nodded.

"Do the officials know?"

Gu Shiming nodded again.

"Eat first. After dinner, go check the cause of death of the people in the inner treasury."

...

It just so happens that the eunuchs who manage the inner treasury belong to Bingjing. The three eunuchs were killed when Li Heng secretly took Chen Zhong to another courtyard. The person who handled the matter at that time was Lin Huaian, the governor of Bingjing Affairs.

Lin Huaian thought that the three people died of illness and did not take it seriously at all. He directly ordered people to throw the bodies to Yizhuang. When Li Heng and Chen Zhong returned to the palace, Li Heng immediately ordered people to check the inner treasury and found that The five-color jade was gone, and the eunuch responsible for counting and the eunuch who usually guarded it, a total of three people, died two days ago.

Li Heng was furious and ordered people to go to Yizhuang to look for the body, but they couldn't find it anywhere.

Lin Huaian was beaten hard, but his life was saved, but his official position was lost.

Since Lin Huaian had contact with Wu Chen in Yang'an County, and after returning to Kyoto, he has often expressed his concern for Wu Chen in front of Chen Zhong intentionally or unintentionally, but now he lies on the bed and replies respectfully. Following Wu Chen's question.

After Wu Chen knew that the body was gone, he stamped his feet in anger and wanted to hit Lin Huaian a few more times.

Lin Huaian knew that he had committed a serious crime this time, so he could only apologize again and again, saying: "...I was also blinded by lard. In the past, people who were on errands in the palace always died of illness, so I didn't take it seriously. Things..."

"It's all related to the inner treasury, so you didn't use your brain?"

"I don't know something about Mr. Wu..."

"Deputy Wu!" the second-year high school student reminded.

"Yes, Deputy Wu doesn't know something. These people on duty in the palace...right, it is inevitable that they will contract bad diseases. This is also common..."

"You can see with your own eyes Have you seen the body?" Wu Chen asked.

“I, how could I see it with my own eyes?”

"You ordered people to throw it away to Yizhuang without even asking?" Wu Chen clenched his fists in anger.

"I asked, I asked! He said he was fine during the day, but he died in the inner treasury duty room when he was on duty at night. There were no injuries on his body, so I thought he had contracted a bad disease to avoid being infected by others. , the palace is no better than anywhere else..."

"The three of them happened to be on duty together that night?" Wu Chen asked again.

“This, I didn’t ask in detail.”

“Who threw the bodies of the three of them to Yizhuang?”

...

Wu Chen was sitting in the middle seat of the Detective Department. Three young eunuchs were kneeling on the ground. It was these three eunuchs who helped collect the body and then drove it to Yizhuang.

Wu Chen said solemnly: "I ask and you answer. If you tell a lie, I will kill you immediately."

The three of them only kowtow at the risk of their lives.

“How many bodies were found in the inner treasury duty room?”

"Two, two." One person replied tremblingly.

"Where was the body of another person found?"

"At his residence, everyone else got up in the morning, but he did not move, so the people in the same room wanted to wake him up. Only then did I realize that he was out of breath." (End of Chapter)
