Chapter 450 Account Books
Xiaoman asked with a worried look on his face, "Sister, I heard that Brother Qi has arrested a lot of people."
Yan Xuehuai patted his little head: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you can do your homework."
Yan Xuehuai knew what Xiaoman was thinking. This child was too sensible and too sensitive. He suspected that this matter had something to do with him.
Xiaoman took the reassurance pill and went to do his homework happily.
It was not until the evening of the next day that the two princes walked out of the imperial prison one after another. The second prince looked dirty and the seventh prince had a bad face. The second prince was arrested, without a car or a horse. He could only look at the seventh prince: "Are you going home?"
"We cannot go back to the house now, we must go to the palace to meet our father and the eldest brother of the prince."
The second prince looked at his wrinkled clothes, and then looked at the stubble that popped up on the seventh prince's chin: "How do we enter the palace like this? We have to wash and change our clothes."
Chai Yan snorted: "Second brother has no experience. The more we do this, the more we have to go to the palace to see our father."
As he said that, he called a follower and said, "You go to Qingping Lane and say that I will enter the palace now. If I come back late, I will go there tomorrow morning."
He gave the follower's horse to the second prince and said, "Second brother, let's go."
The second prince secretly scolded Xiaoqi for being unpromising. Just now, Xiao Ding had to report everything to his wife. If he got married in the future, he would be afraid of his wife like a tiger. Therefore, it is better for him to be pure and have few desires and not marry a wife.
The two princes entered the palace, and the prince had already received news and was waiting for them with the emperor.
When the emperor saw his two sons, he felt a little distressed. The clothes on the second child were almost ragged. Xiaoqi, such a handsome child, was also in a mess.
"Why don't you wash it and then go to the palace?" the emperor asked.
Chai Yan looked aggrieved: "Father, son and second brother were worried about their father's concern for their sons, so he rushed to see his father. He didn't bother to go to wash up. Father, don't dislike his son."
The corners of the prince's mouth twitched. From childhood to adulthood, he was the one who was most annoyed by his father, and he was the one who was the one who acted the most coquettish.
The second prince rolled his eyes. Xiaoqi was so shameless. When did he worry about his father? He was worried that his wife who had not passed by was the real one.
The emperor was very happy. His eunuch brought a brocade bench and asked his two sons to sit down. He asked the eunuch to tell the queen that he would have dinner with his three sons tonight.
Chai Yan did not rush to talk about the case, but looked at the second prince: "Second brother, let me add it first."
The second prince really didn't want to say that the interrogation of the prisoner in the imperial prison made him both physical and psychological discomfort. He really didn't want to speak or eat. Thinking about the flesh and blood cut from the prisoner, he wanted to vomit. Now he just wanted to go back and recite scriptures.
But the emperor and the prince both looked at him, and Chai Yan said softly: "Second brother, think about your money."
silver?
What the second prince lacks the most now is silver.
When the second prince thought of silver, he felt that it seemed less disgusting.
But he was not good at saying this, and he briefly said: "The prisoners refused to say it at first, but later, the seventh brother gave them to the torture, and then they interrogated one by one. The woman named Chanjuan was the first to speak."
Speaking of this, the second prince felt a little embarrassed. He was a man who was about to become a monk, so how could he say that? He had to look at Chai Yan. The emperor frowned. The kindness just now was half gone, and the second brother was too lacking in experience.
"Xiao Qi said, the second brother was listening to what Xiao Qi said." The emperor said.
Chai Yan said, "The woman's name is Chanjuan, and she is one of the two female thieves in the Xiaoguan case before the New Year. She said that she was originally a good girl, and her uncle was still famous. Later, she was sold from Pingcheng to the south and became a monk. Later, she was taken to the capital to be a secret family by an old lady. Everything was instigated by that old lady. Her contract of selling was in the hands of her mother, and she dared not act rashly.
It was a coincidence that when the kid went to watch a martial arts show that day, Chanjuan recognized the kid. She was worried that the kid would be recognized, so she ran away with the old mother overnight. Later, Liuli caught her. She thought she was dead, but she didn't expect that the old mother brought someone to save her. After the guy came to save her, she killed the old mother in front of her and then took her away.
In the past six months, she didn't know where she was, and she had been locked up. She had never seen anyone except the mute who brought her food.
One night ten days ago, the mute knocked her out, and after waking up, she was in Youran Curie.
She confessed to those little officials who had committed the case by her, and could match all those who had investigated by the Ministry of Justice before."
The emperor had learned from the prince that Chanjuan was named Yan Xuejiao. Now, Chai Yan said that Chanjuan was worried about being recognized by him because she saw him and was worried that she would be recognized by him. The emperor understood that Chanjuan was not Xiaoqi, but Yan Xuehuai.
How could Chanjuan know Xiaoqi? What she is familiar with is her former cousin Yan Xuehuai.
This brat is smart enough to pick out his wife.
The second prince looked at Chai Yan and wanted to speak but stopped. Why didn't you mention the punishment of another female prisoner? The female prisoner had his fingers cut off. Chanjuan shouted to confess when she saw the miserable appearance of the female prisoner.
Chai Yan continued, "Shiting is Chanjuan's brother. According to his instructions, when he learned that the late emperor was murdered, he went to Bailu Mountain to report the news. Wei Ming imprisoned him in Bailu Mountain. Later, he found that King Fu was also trapped in Bailu Mountain, so he rescued King Fu. Since then, he has stayed in Prince Fu's mansion.
Last year, King Fu gave him the identity of a stone pavilion and sent him to the capital. He originally thought that he was here to work for Chai Hui, but after arriving in the capital, he did not even see Chai Hui's face, but only saw Liu Miao, who was the aide of Prince Huaian, and went to the capital with Chai Hui.
Liu Miao helped him find the shop in Youranju. Shopkeeper Qu and two friends were also sent by Liu Miao.
Since he bought Youranju, Youranju is doing business on the surface, but secretly putting out seals. The capital is provided by Liu Miao, and not anyone can borrow seals. They only put the money to those small officials under the fifth rank in Beijing, and those with no rank in the grade. Their interest rates are much lower than those of other families. Therefore, not long after, many officials visited them."
When Chai Yan said this, he opened a cloth bag he carried with him, which contained two major account books.
"This is found from Youran Curie. The name on it is the person who borrowed money from their hands. His son has already asked someone to check it."
Youranju is a time-honored brand in the capital, and it is in the business of Bimo. Many celebrities and scholars are old customers of Youranju. There are many ministers in the court who visit Youranju.
