Chapter 423 Shocked

Chapter 423 Shocked
The dark guards went fast and came back fast.

When I went, I was empty-handed, and when I came, I was holding a big box.

When Tian Bao saw the big box, his eyes lit up obviously. It's filled with gold, right?

"Open it up and let me see."

Tianbao was busy asking the hidden guard to open the box, and the unexpected gold appeared, and a few yellowed and old ledgers came into view.

With plain white hands, he lazily flipped through a few pages, let out a bored sigh, "Send the contents of the box to the yamen."

This time she's going to be the unsung hero.

The hidden guard received the order and sent the box to the gate of the yamen, but he was worried that the box would be picked up by others, so he kindly threw the box at the door of the magistrate's room.

The faint and small voice startled the sleeping magistrate, and when he put on his clothes and chased him out, he had already disappeared.

Slightly narrowing his eyes, he saw a box lying on the ground, his brows raised slightly, he couldn't help but stepped forward to pick up the box, opened it gently, and saw the things inside, his eyes darkened slightly.

The hidden guard hid in the dark, and when he saw the young magistrate carrying the box back to his room, he tapped his toes, turned and left the backyard.

After the hidden guard told Tian Bao what he had seen, the latter's face darkened in an instant. After waving the dark guard away, she couldn't help but start to wonder, was her move wrong?
After all, since ancient times, Chunfenglou, which has been able to stand for such a long time, must have a way, or it was opened by some high-ranking official for the purpose of obtaining various information.

If it is opened in the capital, it should be, but in such a small place, how is it possible?
Tian Bao shook her head, always feeling that she was thinking too much, no matter what, the evidence of the crime had already been given, and she had to wait and see how the government would deal with her.

if
Then all she could do was say sorry and deal with the mess herself.

The news that the gold was plundered from the Chunfeng Tower was known to Mrs. Gu the next day, but because the hidden guard acted a little more aggressively, he drove a carriage directly, which was not that high-profile.

Tian Bao commanded people to move the ill-gotten gains into her room. Old Mrs. Gu looked at her, feeling a little uneasy, she quietly dragged her daughter aside, and whispered.

"Girl, is this money from the family from yesterday?"

Mrs. Gu didn't see her daughter get angry, and after thinking about it, she only thought about the pickling incident yesterday. After thinking about it, she took the other party's money, which can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.

"Yes, the old bustard of Chunfeng Building is not a good person. There are not a few people who have been abducted and trafficked in recent years. Some of them are women from good families, and they were kidnapped by them abruptly."

Even three or four-year-old children are not spared, some are raised, and some are bought by some dignitaries with special hobbies.

dignitaries
Tianbao's eyes narrowed slightly, she seemed to remember the secret of seeing Chunfenglou before, but she never took it to heart.

The Spring Breeze Building was opened all over the Eastern Dynasty, and the financial resources of the owner behind it should not be underestimated, but there is only one thing that cannot be found.

Who is behind it?

This also made Tianbao very cautious. Prying the other party's money is only the first step. If the government doesn't deal with it, then there is no need for Chunfenglou to exist.

"Mother, in today's chaotic world, many unavoidable things will naturally happen."

For example, Chunfenglou food.

The old lady Gu nodded, and patted Tian Bao's head with pity.

In this matter, Mrs. Gu let her daughter do it. Even if her daughter doesn't do it, Mr. Gu will do it.

the other side.

Liu Tian was dragged out by Lizheng and the village head, and when he walked halfway, he was pointed out by the villagers, saying that Liu Tian was begging for money, and that Lizheng and the village head were helping the Gu family.

Lizheng was so angry that he almost scolded the villagers, but luckily he was stopped by the village chief.

"Let's go."

The village chief waved his hand and led Li Zheng away, ignoring the ignorant people behind him.

Chen Sanniang, who escaped all the way, finally returned to Chunfeng Building, but was told by the maid that her house had been burglarized, and she almost didn't come up. Chen Sanniang ran towards her house holding her breath, and fell to the ground instantly when she opened the secret compartment .

The gold in the dark cell is gone.

Without bringing it up in one breath, Chen Sanniang passed out.

Hearing the movement in the house, the little maid only stretched her head to look at the situation in the house, then shrank her neck and did not dare to go in.

Chen Sanniang's room was considered a taboo in the Chunfeng Building, few people could set foot in it, only the dumb slaves who served on weekdays could come and go freely.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the maids went to look for the dumb slave one after another, but after searching around to no avail, Chen Sanniang also woke up leisurely.

She propped herself up from the ground, and instantly understood who did it, it was the Gu family!
It's just that she didn't understand why the Gu family knew where her money was hidden?
Little did they know, the hidden guard had recorded the location of the gold two years ago, and even the income of the past two years was also clear.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chunfenglou is making money every day. It is unbelievable for such a small county town to have such a large amount of oil and water.

After Chen Sanniang woke up, she ordered someone to find the dumb slave, but the little girl beside her faltered and faltered. Chen Sanniang frowned and asked sharply, and the little girl who couldn't bear the shock told her that she hadn't found the dumb slave.

Money is gone.

The mute is gone?
Chen Sanniang didn't expect such a coincidence, but everything seemed reasonable. She ordered people to search for dumb slaves, even if she dug three feet into the ground, she would find them.

For a while, Chunfeng Building was in turmoil.

At the same time, Tianbao ordered people to spread rumors among the hungry people, and there was no shortage of food in Chunfenglou.

No shortage.

Means the group can have a full meal.

The news of having enough to eat spread even faster, and in less than one morning, the hungry people walked towards Chunfeng Tower at the same time.

Fortunately, Tianbao had already taken precautions.

She didn't expect that the county magistrate would have anything to do with Chunfenglou.

The ledger was handed over for several days.

The magistrate did not move at all.

The secret guard who had been guarding the magistrate of the county for three days came back to report, and the ledger was burned.

Unexpected.

But reasonable.

At the very least, Tianbao can be sure that the county magistrate is inextricably linked with Chunfenglou.

At the same time, she was also shocked.

Chunfenglou acted boldly. As the magistrate of the county, it is impossible not to grasp the information. Did he ignore it on purpose or did he really not know?

I'm afraid it's more likely to be the former.

"Mother, let the eldest brother and the second brother bring the nephews back."

Tianbao looked at the hot sky, her heart was blocked, and her white and tender hands also exuded a slight coolness. I don't know if it was because of the carrying space, or because I knew something, I always felt that my hands and feet were cold.

Old Madam Gu was busy packing some things. After hearing this, she also ordered the hidden guards to bring him back overnight.

The hidden guard received the order, and Mr. Gu beside him was a little unhappy.

Youyou sighed.

Why are the sons coming back?
