Chapter 567 I don't know how many surprises you have
The most critical person in this matter was Cheng Shuo. Jian Yu immediately invited the person over without saying a word.
You'd better arrange your people, your house, and your stories from back then. I'm just a small official, so I can't handle it.
Cheng Shuo looked at Yin Liming and Xu Zhongkun, then at Jian Yu and the others, with ten thousand curse words in his heart.
Of course I'm not scolding them, I'm scolding myself.
Cheng Shuo, Cheng Shuo, I don’t know how many surprises you still have.
Yin Liming and Xu Zhongkun trembled and knelt in front of Cheng Shuo, feeling King Ning's suppressed anger and anger. They felt that the next moment they would be torn into pieces, skinned and cramped, their bones crushed and ashes scattered to death without a burial place.
But the next moment, Cheng Shuo smiled.
Yes, Cheng Shuo laughed out of anger at himself.
Cheng Shuo said slowly: "Actually, I don't know much about what happened back then."
Everyone was speechless.
If you lie, you can lie, if you are perfunctory, you have to be a little more serious. There are so many people here, and you say that you don’t know what happened back then. You don’t know. There are so many houses in the capital, and you just want this one?
"Yes, I don't know." Cheng Shuo said: "Actually, this is the case. When I was still young, I heard that someone had stolen the treasury. Although it was said to be a box of gold, I thought, the Ministry of Household Affairs
How could a minister do such a thing for a box of gold, so there must be something fishy about this."
Jian Yu just wanted to bah bah bah.
This case did happen seven years ago, but Cheng Shuo seven years ago was already sixteen, already an adult, opening a house abroad, and even about to get married. Was he still young? How could he have such a face?
Cheng Shuo didn't care if someone said something, and continued: "I was impulsive at the time and said I wanted to investigate. But then I felt it was troublesome, but I couldn't take it back after I had said it. It was too shameless, so I had to pretend to do it."
After checking it for a while, I didn't care about it anymore. It's just a box of gold, and I don't care about it. I don't need this little money."
Bai Yue looked at Cheng Shuo, he was envious before, but now he just feels very pitiful.
You've made a lot of messes, and I don't know how much you have done in the past, and even you don't know about it now.
Jian Yu didn't hesitate to expose him: "Then why does the prince keep sending people to watch this place?"
Cheng Shuo said indifferently: "Isn't that right? There are so many people anyway, so it's just idle time. At that time, it was to make people think that the king wanted to investigate, not just talk about it casually. Later, I forgot about it."
Cheng Shuo felt confident and decided that if someone forced him again, he would use Bai Yue's trump card.
Intermittent amnesia method.
In the past six months, he has been working very hard and trying to make ends meet. He can't be completely different from his past self, but he can't be the same as he used to be. It's been a tiring life. On the surface, he looks prosperous, but in fact, he's tired.
Bai Yue knew best, but he didn't dare to complain to Bai Yue, lest Jian Yu would become jealous.
After Cheng Shuo finished speaking, everyone looked at each other in shock.
Bai Yue couldn't believe him and supported him directly, so he decided to save the country in a twists and turns.
"Yin Liming, Xu Zhongkun." Bai Yue said: "Regardless of whether you are sent by King Ning, why are you rummaging in the garden? Do you suspect that the gold stolen back then is hidden in it?"
Neither of them dared to speak. They looked at Bai Yue, Jian Yu and Cheng Shuo.
Cheng Shuo said: "I advise you, now that things have come to this point, no matter what you say, maybe there is still a way to survive."
The two of them were trembling, obviously not believing Cheng Shuo's words.
Chengshuo has a reputation as a ghost, which is somewhat better now. In the past, it was not as good as a dog on the roadside.
Jian Yu sighed: "Just say it, you will always have to say it. If you don't say it now, just go to Dali Temple with me and say it."
Involving the theft of the treasury, this is not just a question of whether Cheng Shuo pursues the case or not. As an official of Dali Temple, he also has to report it to the court.
The two of them looked at me, and I looked at you, and made eye contact. They probably felt that Dali Temple was not much better than Prince Ning's Mansion. Instead of talking in Dali Temple, it was better to have the final say.
.
Yin Liming was silent for a moment and said: "I'm not sure, I'm just suspicious."
"Speak carefully." Jian Yu asked people to bring chairs, and everyone sat down in a hurry. The three halls gathered together and asked Yin Liming to speak slowly.
Yin Liming said: "I have been working as an errand in the Guan Mansion. A few days ago when the treasury was stolen, I overheard Master Guan talking to people about the recent treasury, which was a bit strange."
Jian Yu frowned and said, "How strange?"
He was younger than Cheng Shuo and had not yet entered the imperial court at that time, so the case of the theft of the treasury was really based on hearsay.
Yin Liming shook his head: "I'm not sure, I just heard a few words occasionally. Then, not long after, the gold from the treasury was stolen."
"In the meantime, a group of gardeners came from Guan Mansion and took care of all the flower beds. It was autumn at that time. In the past, the government would take care of the flower beds once every year."
One thing is not suspicious, but if many things are put together, it becomes suspicious.
Yin Liming added: "And the gardener that time was also a stranger, not a gardener who often comes to the house."
The more he spoke, the more suspicious he became. Bai became more curious and stood up immediately.
"Let's go take a look."
What else is there to say? Treasure hunting is such an exciting thing. Although she no longer cares about the box of gold, the process of treasure hunting is more interesting than the treasure itself.
Just leave.
Everyone came to the nearest flower garden in great numbers.
When the house was being renovated, all the land in the flower beds was plowed. Because the season was just right, the gardeners planted suitable flowers and green plants.
At the entrance of Bai Yue's yard, there is a whole wavy flowerbed, all planted with hydrangeas. According to her, when the hydrangeas bloom, as long as the soil is changed with different items, the hydrangeas will bloom in different colors.
, it will look like a rainbow by then.
Bai Yue called the two gardeners over and asked them: "When planting flowers, the soil here was dug deeply. Did you find anything strange?"
The gardener shook his head repeatedly: "No, nothing."
"think carefully."
But no matter how carefully I think about it, there is nothing, only dirt, stones, insects, dead branches and leaves...
The two gardeners were also found by Cheng Shuo. As soon as they talked, he felt frightened. If every person he arranged here had problems, it would make people worry. Even if Bai Yue believed him, others would
How can I cover my mouth?
Therefore, reputation and credibility are very important things.
