fake prince

Chapter 829

The expression on Jia Nanny's face couldn't be more sincere: "Yes, and it's the first time I've seen a man who loves his wife like the king! You don't even know that the king ordered me to take care of the princess's daily life. , That’s not enough, and I also specially ordered that when the peaches are sold, I will buy some good peaches for the princess to eat every day, saying that this fruit is good for pregnant women! Tell me, even if you are not such a noble person as the king, you can eat it. You are a petty official, who can treat his wife like this?"

"Oh, the king is so kind to the concubine!" the maid said enviously after hearing this.

"Yeah, that's why we who are slaves and servants are better at doing things... I'm going to the kitchen to talk about what the princess has for lunch, so I won't go on with you." After saying that, Nanny Jia left in a hurry.

In the living room, Su Ziji was sitting and drinking tea slowly. He had good hearing and heard a lot of what Nanny Jia said outside, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Knowing that the Daiwangfu is good, everyone can follow along, why do you want to betray the Daiwangfu?

"Forget it. Originally, to launch the shrine incident, you would have to get involved in the palace or other wealthy families. Now whoever colludes with you, I will choose whoever will do the surgery."

Thinking of hearing the report before, Su Ziji clapped his hands lightly, and said to an unremarkable mansion guard who came in quietly and changed his clothes: "Follow closely."

"Yes." The mansion guard responded, and went out with light steps, following in the direction where Nanny Jia left.

"My lord, do you suspect that Nanny Jia has a problem?" At this moment, Ye Taoist turned out from the screen, handed a list to Su Ziji, and asked.

He came in a hurry just now, and Jia Momo arrived as soon as he arrived, the king asked him to go behind the screen for a while.

Su Ziji hummed, picked up the list and looked at it carefully, the wild Taoist didn't ask any more questions, and changed the subject.

"My lord, I invited several famous doctors in the city to look at the wounds of Qingyuan Temple monks. Everyone else is fine. Although the injuries are not serious, they are all flesh and blood injuries. As long as you take good medicine and take care of them carefully, you may not be unable to recover. Only Bianxuan ..."

Speaking of this, Ye Daoist paused, and his voice became a little deeper.

"Bianxuan seems to focus on taking care of her. The lute bone is seriously damaged, and her left eye is even more difficult to keep. After recovering, her martial arts are not half of what she used to be."

Su Ziji stood up, took a few steps, and sighed: "The tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it."

Ye Daoist's eyes flashed, but he didn't answer. Seeing the Dai Wang sitting back, he reported: "However, they are still very active in their work. In order to pay for their crimes and make meritorious service, the monks of Qingyuan Temple contacted and mobilized many people. This list is Qingyuan Temple The monk handed it over, my lord, please have a look."

Su Ziji looked at the list and found that there were overlaps between this list and Liu Zhan's list. This is normal. After all, the objects of investigation are the same, so the overlap must be correct.

But not all are the same, there are some differences, Su Ziji focused on the differences.

The wild Taoist waited for Su Ziji to finish reading, and then handed over a list: "My lord, this list is the link between the families of the kings and the shrine. When incense was offered and how much was donated, there are records."

"Oh?" Su Ziji took it over immediately, turned over and said, "You did a good job, the list was collected very quickly."

"I can't be praised by the lord." Ye Daoist smiled: "These are actually not difficult to check, especially some shrines are high-profile, as long as they are locked and checked, the problem can be found."

"As for the family members of the royal family, they are also very eye-catching. Someone who cares will always remember them. They just spent some money."

"My lord, it is said that the Three-Dong Niangniang Shrine is said to be able to get rid of acne and give birth to a child. It is very effective and has many believers. But according to my investigation, the delivery of a child is very strange. I am afraid it is a den of thieves, and it has not been canonized by the court." , there is not too hard a background, you can use it to operate.”

Su Ziji pondered, tapped the handle lightly with his fingers, and shook his head for a moment: "Wait a little longer."

Saying that he closed his eyes and rested his mind, the wild Taoist didn't urge him, just waited in the next seat.

After half an hour, he heard hurried footsteps coming from outside, the wild Taoist followed the prestige, and saw the mansion guard coming in, saluting to Su Ziji: "Your Majesty!"

Su Ziji closed his eyes to rest his mind, but at this moment Qu Ran opened his eyes: "Who did she see, can she leave the house?"

This mansion guard is a descendant of the former prince's mansion, and there is no problem with his loyalty, so he immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Mother Jia went to the kitchen first, and after talking to the kitchen staff, she left the mansion to buy some needles and thread." .”

"I went to a remote place nearby, and I followed her all the time. Then I saw her talking to Lu Da, who was running a grocery store across the street. Because of the distance, I couldn't hear what she said, and then we all left. Seeing Nanny Jia turning back to the inner courtyard, she followed Lu Da all the time."

"There was nothing suspicious at first, but this Lu Da closed the door immediately. Why did he close the shop as soon as it opened? I became suspicious and continued to follow, but went to Liu's pawnshop on Moxiang Street. It was strange to say that as soon as he entered, Liu's pawn shop is closed, no outside customers!"

"I immediately asked someone to watch quietly, and I will come back immediately and report to you, Your Majesty."

Su Ziji listened very attentively, and sat up straight: "You've done a good job, go and find out what the Liu family's pawnshop is."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to investigate, this is a man from King Lu." Ye Daoren was listening quietly, but now he interrupted.

"Oh, what's the matter?"

The wild Taoist replied: "I was ordered by the king. Since you became the prince, you were afraid that outsiders would insert you, so you checked all the shops and houses near the palace."

"Some have lived here for many years, so the suspicion is not great."

"Some of them are appointed by the king to be the duke and the queen. It is very suspicious to move here."

"Lu Da is not a newcomer, his background is clean, and his neighbors say he is hardworking, but the Liu's pawnshop is a new one, so I sent someone to keep an eye on it, and found out that he was meeting with people from Prince Lu's mansion privately."

"The Jia family was originally the prince's old department. When the king was promoted, the family was very poor. There was also a son who was sick and had no money to see him. Seeing that he was dying of illness, the king sent a doctor to treat him. The monthly payment in the mansion is also high."

"I would never have imagined that Nanny Jia, who has a family and wealth and has received great kindness, would be bribed by the Lu Palace after ungrateful and betraying her master."

Su Ziji paced back and forth, and said to the soldiers: "You have done a good job in the investigation, and I will pay you 30 taels of silver in the accounting room, and I will reward you alone."

"However, keep your mouth shut and don't talk nonsense."

"Yes!"

Seeing that the government soldiers had retreated, Su Ziji murmured, Lu Daliu's pawnshop had never appeared in the two nightmares, but he also knew that Jia Nanny could not only collude with outsiders, but also not be targeted by the Imperial City Secretary for an interview Therefore, there must be a middleman to help contact the outside world. This person must be Lu Da who can often sell some department stores into the house without being discovered.

"King Lu, okay, okay, okay, I don't want to touch you yet, but you want to touch me. If that's the case, then I'll take you." Su Ziji thought to himself, and turned to the wild man.

"Mr. Lu, I'll leave this matter to you. Go and check whether there is a farm house under Jia's name, and whether there is any new contact with the married daughter. Anyway, check."

"Only after the investigation is clear can the canonical punishment be announced." Su Ziji flashed a cold smile.

"Yes!"

When the wild Taoist retreated, Su Ziji sat for a while, the outside was cloudy and rainy, and the room was relatively gloomy, so he couldn't see his face clearly, so he called out after a long time: "Xiaobai!"

Not long after, a fox poked its head over, its snow-white fur looming at the door, Su Ziji waved at it, and the little fox jumped in lightly and walked up to Su Ziji.

After stroking its furry head, Su Ziji said: "It's time for you to make a move again, you go to find out what's going on in Prince Lu's mansion, and there is a steward Zhou in Lu's mansion, you let him pick up the silver. "

Then, he showed it a portrait, and hung a small white cloth bag with a rope around the little fox's neck, with a piece of silver inside.

"Haw!"

After touching it with its paw, the little fox understood, nodded to Su Ziji, and rushed out.
