Chapter 38 Silver Mine
"What if he is not afraid of death?"
Feng Wu was slightly stunned: "The princess means that the murderer is Zhao Ke!"
Shen Mingjiao spread her hands: "I didn't say that, but judging from the current situation, he is the most suspected."
"First of all, Mrs. Lian is his concubine. How could he not know anything about what Mrs. Lian did? Even if he was controlled by Mrs. Lian's so-called hypnosis, he should figure out to what extent he was controlled."
Feng Wu also reacted when he heard the words: "That's right, Cailian is a woman who has never been out of Luodu. How did you know that you are Princess Su? How did you transport so much money by yourself?"
…
Finally, Feng Lisheng ordered Feng Wu to investigate everything about Zhao Ke. At the same time, Tie Zhu, Xu Daniu and others were sent to secretly stare at the Zhao residence.
And he took Shen Mingjiao out of the city.
Shen Mingjiao actually doesn't want to go anywhere. As an inspirational woman who wants to be a vase, she just wants to stay in the mansion to eat and drink honestly. As for investigating the case and proclaiming justice, sorry, forgive her for not having such a high level of ideological awareness!
However, Feng Lisheng has gone through the past, and this is an extraordinary period to catch the murderer, and he always feels that it is safe to keep people under his nose.
It's just...Feng Lisheng rolled his eyes at Xiaoxuetuan, who was nestling comfortably in Shen Mingjiao's arms, and frowned in disgust, wondering why such a weak little thing is rare?
Shen Mingjiao doesn't care, she just got such a cute little guy, it's when it's fresh, so she always hugs it wherever she goes.
Seeing that the carriage was getting farther and farther away from the city, she couldn't help asking curiously: "Where are we going?"
Shen Mingjiao became a little interested, straightened up and raised her head and asked, "What did you find?"
Feng Lisheng closed the ledger,
"Although Luodu City is rich, there are also corrupt officials. It stands to reason that the treasury simply cannot store so much money.
I checked the money that Luoducheng had handed over to the household department in the past ten years, and found that the amount was completely inconsistent. "
Shen Mingjiao understood what he meant. That is to say, some people were always thinking about their pockets and spent money that should have been handed over to the national treasury.
Feng Lisheng continued: "Based on the records left by the treasury. Previously, there were indeed 20 million taels of silver in the treasury of Luodu City, so where did the extra silver come from, and who did it end up in?" in the pocket?"
Shen Mingjiao tore a piece of meat and fed it to Xiaoxuetuan, "Obviously, it's impossible for the upper-level officials in Luodu not to know about such a big matter. As long as they are arrested for a trial, isn't it over?"
"After the trial, those people were frightened by the case of killing the three families. They said that the silver was mined from a silver mine."
Shen Mingjiao gasped, mining silver mines privately is a death penalty for exterminating nine clans!
Feng Lisheng sneered: "Jia Tongpan and Xu Tongzhi put the silver in the treasury in order to avoid the exposure of the private silver mining in the future, planning that if something happens, they can presume that the silver has not been handed over in time. .”
Shen Mingjiao: "And Zhao Ke, as the Lord of Luodu City, cannot be ignorant of this."
While speaking, the two had arrived at their destination, and the carriage stopped.
The guards who had been here before led the way. Several people turned left and right, and finally came to a mine that had just been excavated.
The guards were ordered to step forward and stop a miner who was about to betray his family.
