Chapter 366
King Shun didn't know what was going on. He clearly knew that Dongming Ziyu didn't have the strength to quietly transport so much of his money away, but his sixth sense was suspicious of him.
Only in the evening did he get news about Dongming Ziyu and the others.
"Are you out of Gyeonggi Province?!"
"Yes, I checked into the inn in the dark last night. I got up early this morning, had breakfast and set off. I caught up with them and checked their vehicle. The ruts were not deep, so they must have been saluting."
If there is a lot of gold and silver, it will be very heavy and the ruts will be very deep.
Besides, Dongming Ziyu was heading south. His secret treasury was in the northern mountainous area, and he could only ride a thousand-mile horse back and forth in one night. If someone was running a horse late at night, his spies along the way would have discovered it long ago.
King Shun smiled bitterly and rubbed his brows. He was really confused. Who else could do it without being noticed except the prince?
The prince was also puzzled, "Who is so capable? Could it be King Rui, who is lame and still not honest, and wants to alienate the relationship between Gu and King Shun?"
He has taken control of the household department, and the recently suppressed King Shun is out of breath. He doesn't want to go too far, let alone kill him now. After all, there is no King Shun to balance power, and it's time for the emperor to suppress him.
The emperor handed over this matter to him, how could he investigate? After several days, he had no clue at all. If no clue could be found, would the emperor suspect that he did it?
King Shun arranged for the hunter to provide a confession: "While hunting, I saw people moving in the valley, and there were women's cries."
Some villagers came to pick up the girls, but they were all kidnapped while collecting firewood, going to the fields, or going to the market.
Some businessmen reported that they had been robbed by bandits on that stretch of road.
Indeed, those were the people who robbed and robbed women.
The prince and Sanfasi finally came to the conclusion: "There is a bandit's den there. Because the den was exposed, they moved it urgently and set the den on fire."
This conclusion is far-fetched, but it makes the emperor very satisfied. He doesn't want to remove Prince Shun and let the prince's family dominate.
Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli have already arrived at the dock and booked a boat. There are three old people. Although the boat is a bit far away, it is more comfortable.
There are not boats going south every day on the pier. The most recent one was two days later, and the group stayed at the inn on the pier.
Shangguan Ruoli was sorting boxes of gold and silver in the space, and said happily: "I didn't expect that King Shun is really rich. How greedy he is."
Dongming Ziyu was sorting out the specialties of the capital to be sold on the pier, "Most of the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs have been arrested, but not much money has been recovered. Most of them are with Prince Shun."
Shangguan Ruoli smiled and said: "This time he is going to be so angry that he vomits blood! It's really you, how did you find his dark spot?"
Dongming Ziyu smiled and said: "How many princes don't raise their own soldiers and secret guards? If you don't want to harm others, you have to prevent others from harming them. So many people have to eat, drink, and have sex, right? I'll let Shuan Zhu keep an eye on Prince Shun.
There is a Zhuangzi, and there is a large amount of grain and vegetables shipped out, so I asked Tang Yuan'er to track them."
Shangguan Ruoli almost forgot about Tang Yuan'er, the little white ferret. He would go out and run around when nothing happened. Ever since they got the poodle, Ling Yue and Wu Lang had diverted their attention and didn't care much about it. They didn't expect it to become Dongming.
Ziyu's spy came out.
Bring the little white ferret into the space, give it extra food, and reward it well.
Because there were a few bolters in the front line, they knew what products were most in demand at the dock, so they bought the corresponding products on the way.
Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli, as officials and their wives, could not engage in business and benefit the people, so they asked Dong Shi and Erhu to sell on the dock. They had a lot of goods and sold them directly to shops and merchants on the dock.
The merchants who passed by sold everything in a long time and made more than three hundred taels of silver.
Mrs. Qian was so happy that she didn't see her, "Don't tell me, you are freer here than in the capital, and you can make more money!"
Old Man Dong smiled and said: "We are going to stay on the boat for a month. Let's go and buy some fresh vegetables and fruits to eat on the boat."
Mrs. Qian smiled and said: "There is no need to buy vegetables and fruits. Wulang's mother picked four carts from the village and sold them on the dock. Let her keep a few baskets."
When Old Man Dong heard this, his smile turned into chrysanthemums, "You have to sell it as soon as possible. The further south you go, the hotter it gets. If you can't keep the fruits and vegetables, they won't be worth the money anymore."
Suddenly, there was a commotion on the dock.
"Catch him! Catch him!" someone shouted, as if they were chasing someone.
Mrs. Qian squinted her eyes and looked over, and saw a dark and thin girl being chased by four or five burly men holding sticks.
Old Man Dong quickly blocked the old woman behind him and said, "Get out of the way. You are not a kind person at first glance. Don't hit her."
