Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 408 Five Crates of Insect Eggs (3)
King Yan was a little densely phobic. Just looking at the densely packed insect eggs, his hairs stood on end. Seeing her tossing and turning like this, he frowned: "Come here, bring me a glove for my third sister-in-law."

Yun Wanqin turned her head and said, "No need." During those days at Zhuangzi, it's not uncommon to go to the flower fields and plum groves to dig the soil and plant, and there are fewer insects in the soil.

Feng Jiulang looked at this Princess Xuan and looked at and touched her, his eyes curved, just looking at her appearance can really confuse people, she is delicate and childish, just like a precious golden branch and jade leaf, although at the palace banquet that day Outstanding, but it's just talk on paper, unexpectedly, the core is very pungent, and he will do it as soon as he says it.

But it's true, this matter is hosted by her behind the scenes, if something goes wrong, I'm afraid I will be punished, so how can I not be nervous.

Feng Jiulang let her fiddle with it, and after a while, she turned her head and said loudly: "Look, is this a sign of prying?"

Several followers of Dashi passed by, and saw that there were small dents on the back of the wooden box lid, and some sawdust had fallen off.

The lower back of the lid is already neglected, and those dents are even more subtle.

King Yan hurriedly said, "Go up and have a look!"

The two hall masters stepped forward to hold back the nausea, peeled away the eggs, and leaned closer to the head to check the dent. After a while, they said: "If you go back to King Yan, this is really a prying mark! If you don't check it carefully, you really can't see it." Here we go!"

King Yan pinched his nose and narrowed his eyes and said: "This box is heavy and the lid is heavy. If you use a knife to pry it open, there should be a lot of marks. What did you use to pry it open?"

Feng Jiulang, who had been silent for a while, suddenly stepped forward, picked up a cover covered with insect eggs, and looked at the dent.

Seeing his appearance, Yun Wanqin should be very clean, but now she was taken aback, only to hear him seriously: "It should be started with the smallest cross." It is a small tool specially designed for screwing screws. Pry it open little by little, and there will be no obvious pry marks like a knife.

After finishing speaking, Feng Jiulang threw away the lid, clapped his hands, his face turned dark and blue: "Who did it? It's unreasonable."

Yun Wanqin and a few others walked out of the warehouse, returned to the lobby of Li Fan Yuan, and took their seats again.

Chu Xia and a few officials from the government department fetched clean water, handed soap soap to them, and after cleaning their hands, Yun Wanqin said: "I just took a closer look at those insect eggs, this kind of insect eggs are called Qingwutou , in Daxuan, most of them are bought to feed ornamental fish and birds. Among bird and fish feed, green aconitum is relatively expensive food. As far as I know, there is especially a bird called conure cockatoo and A kind of koi called Lightning Red is specially designed to eat this kind of precious green aconitum."

Feng Jiulang slowly wiped his hands with a cotton towel, paused his head and neck, oh, yes, this princess can make fragrances, and also has private property in flower fields. She is familiar with the characteristics of plants, and she should also have an understanding of insects that are closely related to plants, Junmei Stretch, put the cotton towel on the tray, thoughtfully: "The people who can afford to feed ornamental fish and birds are unlikely to be ordinary people, but what they feed are precious birds and fish, and they can all eat expensive feed... ...So what Wang Hao means is that the person who threw the worm may have a high status."

In fact, even if it wasn't because of the bug eggs, one could guess that the person behind it was not a small character.

Whether that person is harming himself or Da Shi, if he dares to sabotage the trade between the two countries, he has a certain amount of confidence.Aren't you afraid of taking the blame for the Dongchuang incident?

Thinking of this, Feng Jiulang frowned, but Yun Wanqin's face tightened.

King Yan finally found an opportunity to interject: "This will be easy to handle! This king is going to check every house where fish and birds are raised in the capital! I have raised conure cockatoos and lightning red ones, and I will focus on checking! I will definitely find some clue!"

"It's not easy."

Yun Wanqin and Feng Jiulang spoke in unison.

King Yan frowned, is it necessary to be so tacit?Third brother, I'm sorry, I can only help you so far.

Yun Wanqin saw that Feng Jiulang was thinking of getting together with her at the same time, so she raised her hand generously, signaling the distinguished guest to speak first.

Feng Jiulang followed her wishes, and said: "If it's an ordinary small town, it's easy to check. Yejing is at the foot of the emperor, and there are as many people who can raise fish and birds, and there must be many conure cockatiels and lightning reds." King Yan can check it, but it is too time-consuming. I am afraid that it will take 20 days without a month. Does King Yan think that the envoys and his wife will have the patience to wait for so long? During this period, I am afraid they have already gone to the palace to file a complaint. In other words, besides Qin Wangfei being punished, things will break out, and the person who threw the worm will be even more vigilant and try to guard against it, and it will be even more difficult to investigate when the time comes."

"Before the matter spreads and the person does not know that the matter has been discovered, it is the best time to investigate." Yun Wanqin added.

Feng Jiulang narrowed his eyes, his emerald green pupils were full of luster, showing a bit of a smile: "What suggestion does the princess have for the investigation?"

Seeing the appearance of the man in front of him, Yun Wanqin clearly thought of something, and said with a faint smile: "There are a lot of insect eggs in the five boxes, and the shelf life of this kind of insect eggs is very limited. If you buy too many, they are waiting to go bad, so People who feed birds and insects will not buy too much at one time. Logically speaking, it is impossible for that person to store so many eggs on hand. They must have asked people to buy them temporarily, and after the palace banquet was confirmed to be in business, it has not been available until today. Seven or eight days——in this way, the time and steps of the investigation have been shortened. We only need to investigate those who bought a large number of green aconites after the day of the palace banquet."

Feng Jiulang's smile deepened, and every word she said coincided with the thoughts in his heart.

A messy net was slowly untied by the two of them with joint efforts, but -- they didn't know who the person behind it was.

King Yan whispered to the two hall masters beside him, and turned his head: "There are not many sellers in the capital for these precious fish and bird feed, and there is also a special flower and bird market. .This king will ask people to go to the market to check." He said a few words to the hall master, but Yun Wanqin said: "Eight emperor brother, I will also go together."

King Yan was stunned: "Who needs the emperor's wife to go to this kind of thing, and the flower and bird market is crowded with people—"

Feng Jiulang's eyelashes flickered, and he glanced at Yun Wanqin: "His Royal Highness, the innocence of Princess Qin and the reputation of Prince Qin's mansion are related. It is natural for Princess Qin to be nervous. If she is not asked to go, I am afraid that Princess Qin will return to the mansion. I don't feel at ease. Besides, King Yan has just seen it, and Concubine Qin is familiar with the common sense in this area, so she will be a helper if she goes there."

King Yan was still hesitating, but saw that Yun Wanqin had already put on the veiled hat, covering half of her face, and turned her head with a smile: "Don't be silly, brother eight." With Chu Xia, he followed a few officials and walked out of the hall .

Forget it, even the third brother's presence might not be able to stop him.King Yan called out Qiao Wei, his personal bodyguard, and ordered him to go to the market with him to secretly protect Yun Wanqin's safety. He had just ordered and watched Qiao Wei go out, but Feng Jiulang lifted his robe and walked out, hurriedly Called: "Hey - where are you going?"
