After seeing the barrage, the princess quit her job

Chapter 228 Wouldn't it be to punish the second uncle?
Liu Ru, who has always been quiet, couldn't help asking, "It wasn't your two older brothers who accompanied you here, who else was there?"

Then the three of them saw a red glow rising on Shen Jiayu's face: "My fiancé."

She briefly talked about recruiting relatives in the capital, and Shen Sisi and Shen Niannian, who had a tacit understanding, patted her arm lightly: "Yes, Xiaoyu, you can find it before your two older sisters." sweetheart."

"Then did he come here on behalf of the emperor, or because of you? With you here, my father should be able to clear up his grievances."

Shen Sisi and Shen Niannian are born optimists. The two of them feel that there is no hurdle they can't overcome. Even if they are imprisoned, it is temporary. Their father is upright and honest. He has a very good reputation in Chenzhou these years. The people are very respectful.

"My father discovered the loss of minerals when he went to check. He immediately sent government soldiers and yamen servants to look for it, but he didn't suppress the matter. He ordered someone to inform Zhizhou, and then the garrison blocked the gate. Searched our mansion all over, and locked us up without finding anything."

Liu Ru is a native of Chenzhou. I met Shen Xingjun by chance when Shen Xingjun was still a young boy and just came to work. Her family has been blacksmithing for generations and runs an iron shop. She is the most famous and has the most say in Chenzhou.

"It means that the garrison initially suspected that the second uncle secretly hid and smuggled it for the benefit of the old man's family. Even the iron shop of the second aunt's family did not escape inspection, did it?"

Shen Jiayu wanted to ask as much as possible about the situation that day. Different people saw the same thing as a different angle. She was very relieved that the second uncle had the third prince there, and she didn't want to miss any clues.

Liu Ru nodded, a little helpless: "The iron shops in Chenzhou are all registered in Zhizhou, and the purchase of ore also needs to be approved by the official document. Every entry and exit in the shop is recorded in the on the ledger."

"The neighbors didn't see that the iron shop bought a large amount of minerals, so the defenders let my parents go."

Shen Jiayu is a little scared now. When she was in the capital, she only thought it was aimed at the second uncle. After knowing it personally, it is very likely that even the second aunt's natal family will be implicated. If she is ordered to close the shop, such a big business will be destroyed again. On whose head will it fall.

The beneficiary is probably the person behind the scenes, and the second uncle will also be charged with corruption, but fortunately, that person did not arrange it that way.

"I remember that Dad didn't accompany us to have dinner that day. In the past, Dad would eat at the mansion first, then go to the government office to count the number, and then return home to sleep."

"Sister, I should remember correctly."

Shen Niannian said suddenly.

"Daddy sent the yamen servants back that day to send a letter, saying that a new batch of ore has been brought in, and the quality of the dug out this year is not bad. The bureaucrats in the yamen invited him to drink to celebrate. He, the magistrate, cannot be absent on such days. Let us not have to wait for him."

"Could it be premeditated, why did something happen when Dad wasn't around today?"

Shen Sisi's mind also turned very quickly. They were thrown into the prison all at once. They were a little flustered at first, so they didn't think of these details. They were afraid that the emperor would be furious and directly kill them. Even the garrison asked Sometimes I didn't tell the truth.

"Well, then we have to focus on investigating the people who drank with the second uncle, which can be used as a breakthrough."

Shen Jiayu gained something, and his mood brightened. The jailer knocked on the cell door and said, "His Royal Highness, please come over."

"I'll send someone to bring some quilts later, the prison is damp and cold, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."

People can't take it away, but it's okay to care for one or two.

When Shen Jiayu and Yan Suizhi met, they saw the second uncle coming out of the prison and following behind him: "What is your Highness going to do? You won't punish my second uncle, right?"

Of course she thought it was unlikely, but she couldn't control her mouth.

"What are you thinking?"

Yan Suizhi Qu raised his index finger and tapped her small head with his knuckles, Shen Xingjun also smiled and said: "Don't wrong Your Highness, he is a very good person."

Shen Jiayu didn't understand how the Third Highness had left the second uncle with the impression of being a good person in such a short period of time. It could only be attributed to his charisma.

When walking up, they met Dong Zhongyuan who was wandering around, his eyes widened instantly, he pointed at Shen Xingjun and asked in a voice, "Why did the lord bring the prisoner out?"
