Chapter 229 Acting?

"Princess, do you think there is something fishy about these account books?"

There is indeed a problem with the ledger, but the problems reflected in the ledger are very strange.

The two of them have been reading it together for a long time, and the more they read, the more they feel that something is wrong. They didn't feel it when they read the book alone, but they can see the problem after reading it together.

"Old Uncle Shen, if I didn't know how to read the accounts, or didn't read them carefully, or didn't understand them at all, would I have asked them to ask questions and reconcile the accounts with you now?"

Luo Yunyan asked Old Uncle Shen, and Old Uncle Shen nodded blankly, that's not the case, that should be the case under normal circumstances.

Then an excited look looked at Luo Yunyan, "Princess, do you mean that this account book has been tampered with?"

"That's what I guessed. Look at these account books. Are the errors very similar? Although there are some subtle differences, but...if you look carefully, you will see that the problems are actually the same. Old Uncle Shen should know these things better than me. If you look at these accounts, will they make such a mistake? You also said that you look at their accounts every year... If there are really problems with these accounts, then you and them have been cheating together over the years..."

As soon as Luo Yunyan finished speaking, Old Man Shen couldn't wait to kneel down, "Princess, this slave must never dare!"

"What is Uncle Shen doing? I'm just analyzing. If I didn't believe you, why would I tell you this here? Get up. If I didn't believe you, what would be the situation now?"

These account books may have been tampered with before they set off, or they may have been tampered with on the way or when they arrived here. But one thing is that it is not that easy to tamper with these account books. At least, someone must cooperate secretly, that is to say , there are people with ulterior motives around these stewards or in the places under their jurisdiction. Who can make such a layout? Place people in the fiefdom of Prince Wuquan?
In fact, Luo Yunyan already knew it without thinking deeply.

Luo Yunyan quickly helped the old man up.

Luo Yunyan's words sent chills down Old Man Shen's back. Who is this? Such vicious thoughts.

"But...how can they manipulate these account books at the same time?"

"Actually, not all the account books have problems. In our fiefdom, there are a total of thirteen counties. Only the account books of these six places have such problems. We may start with these six stewards. Uncle Shen, please tell me carefully. Analyze these six stewards, their personalities and temperaments, and the characteristics of the areas they govern, as well as how long it took them to set off and when they arrived. "

Old Man Shen stood up tremblingly, breaking out in a cold sweat. Hearing what Luo Yunyan said, he finally understood, "The princess is saying that someone has tampered with these account books? The purpose is to sow discord?"

"Yes, sow discord and cause civil strife in our fiefdom. Think about it, the prince is at the border, and the old princess and I are here. The old princess will naturally believe me. When the time comes and the steward and you feel that they have been wronged, all these things will come to a halt. Come down, there will be trouble. If someone interferes with it at this time, what will be the result? "

Perhaps the royal family has never been worried about the Wuquan Palace.

Old Man Shen also knew the seriousness of the matter and thought about it carefully one by one.

Time passed little by little, and Luo Yunyan listened carefully without interrupting. He waited until Old Uncle Shen finished speaking before speaking.

"It sounds like the six of them have quite distinct personalities. Some are quick-tempered, some are meticulous, and some are taciturn... In short, they all have some personality, and people like this are also The most difficult thing to control is that if one thing is not right, there will be problems. If I confront them now and say that there is a problem with the account book, let them explain clearly that I am a new princess, a master I have never met, and I am still a young woman. Qingqing, they are senior, and they are right. I am afraid that they will be dissatisfied, and there will be some conflicts between their words, and then someone will secretly instigate them. Wouldn't it be... that there would be a big mess? "

"What the princess said is absolutely true. Who did this and have such vicious thoughts?" Old Man Shen was frightened. If the princess didn't trust him enough, I'm afraid he would be the first to suspect them. He suspected that they were deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth. The explanation was a little weak at the time. After all, he had been helping to take care of it all these years, and with the tempers of those few people...

"There are always some people who don't want us to live in peace. Prince Wu Quan's palace has always been suspicious of those who use them and those who employ them. Of course, people's hearts are unpredictable. Therefore, some things must be clarified as soon as possible. There must be problems with these account books, but these problems How did it appear? You have to investigate it carefully. You should be aware of the handwriting of each steward. You just looked at it and found no handwriting problem. That means that the problem with these account books is not that of strangers. What I did was to prepare early and find a suitable time to switch the contract. Let's go and find these stewards. No...I saw three of them. I found two more and I haven't seen the problem for the time being. of."

"Princess, if you ask them like this, their temper...may be...why don't I talk to them first?"

"No, just find them, and then we'll put on a show. I'm afraid it's an acquaintance who committed the crime. It will take a lot of effort to find them."

"acting?"

Uncle Shen looked confused, Luo Yunyan nodded solemnly, "Yes, a banquet!"

Luo Yunyan already had an idea in mind.

"Okay, old slave, let's go now."

"Well, go ahead and let me take a look at the other ledgers." It seems that even in the fiefdom, it is not as peaceful as imagined. Also, she had ignored it before. This is the fiefdom of Prince Wuquan's palace, and the royal family is no longer worried. How could Prince Wuquan not do something? For example, pay attention to every move of the fief, and arrange some details in the fief to keep abreast of the dynamics of the fief and gain insight into every move of the palace.

Now, we have to find these people and make this place clean. Only then can they boldly do whatever they want to do.

Luo Yunyan breathed out, things were not as simple as she thought.

These people must be found as soon as possible, otherwise they will continue to cause trouble. In the past few years, no one from the Wuquan Palace has personally come to take care of the fiefdom. The situation here must be familiar with it as soon as possible.

"This kid is so busy looking at the accounts that he forgets to eat and sleep. The worst he can do is make the stewards wait for two days. There are so many accounts, and three days is already a rush. Look, he hasn't come out since he entered the study. All the food is brought in. I heard I didn’t eat much.”

"Old Ancestor, didn't the princess tell you not to worry? She has a sense of propriety. But just now Lao Shen hurried out and heard from his servants that his expression didn't look right. Could it be that there was something wrong with the account?"

"There's something wrong with the account?" The old princess stood up anxiously after hearing this. She just took two steps to take a look but stopped.

"No, since I leave it to her, I can't interfere at will. I have to let her do it by herself. There will be a long time to come. Go and have a look, and tell me if anything happens!"
