Chapter 106

"Why, it's weird." Fei Yanggu was even more puzzled when he saw his hesitation.

"Master, Aunt Liu is not here to pawn."

"Not pawning things...then what did she go to the pawn shop for?" Fei Yanggu thought she was pawning things when she first learned that Mrs. Liu went to the pawn shop.After all, she has not been favored for many years, and she is afraid that the people who serve her will not care, so it is possible for her to take money to manage it.But it's strange to hear that she's not going to be Fei Yanggu.

"Aunt Liu is going to redeem something."

"Redemption, what did you redeem?"

"I secretly bribed the pawnbrokers, and then I found out that Aunt Liu spent a high price to redeem some worthless things every time I went there." The person sent to investigate was also surprised. Could it be that Aunt Liu is a fool, and this is clearly a loss. Ah, the most surprising thing is where did Aunt Liu get so much money.

Fei Yanggu pondered for a while after hearing what he said, and then said after a while: "You keep an eye on Mrs. Liu, and then find out where her money comes from." Thinking of Mrs. Liu's brother, he said to the man again: "Be careful, don't let anyone find out." The man responded and turned around and left the door.

After a few days, Fei Yanggu found out what the Liu family was supposed to do when he went to Yutong.It turned out that the spies ordered by Fei Yanggu had been watching Mr. Liu for a while, only to find out that Mrs. Liu would go to the Baotong bank to collect silver a few days before every time he went to Yutong, and each time it was thousands of taels.

And every time Liu went to Yutong to redeem things, according to the guy, they were worth a few taels of silver at most.

Fei Yanggu understood immediately after learning what Mrs. Liu had done.This Mrs. Liu is afraid that she is helping her brother to do something shady.

If it was as he had guessed, then it would make sense why Mrs. Liu had so much money in Baotong Bank.

After figuring out some joints, Fei Yanggu immediately ordered someone to go to the backyard to arrest Mrs. Liu and the boy who was helping Mrs. Liu with errands.But the boy killed himself when he saw the servant coming to arrest him.

Mrs. Liu was yelling all the time and going crazy.He didn't look guilty at all when he was found guilty of doing bad things, which made all the servants amazed.

That night Fei Yanggu went to the room where Liu was imprisoned, and everyone in the backyard knew that Aunt Liu had died of illness the next day.Although everyone knew in their hearts that things were not that simple, but the battle last night made everyone startled, and they all knew that Aunt Liu might have committed a crime, and no one dared to spread gossip because of the beating by the front yard manager.

If it is true that Mrs. Liu died unjustly, if the things she did for Liu Zhi were exposed, everyone in the entire family would be buried with her.It was only after Fei Yanggu personally interrogated Mrs. Liu that he fully understood the ins and outs of the matter. It turned out to be related to the Jiangnan Examination Case.

The case of the Jiangnan Examination Center involved a lot. More than half of the magistrates in Jiangnan were dismissed, and even a few officials in the capital were sacked.Suo'etu and the prince had been operating in the south of the Yangtze River for many years. Although the emperor did not order a thorough investigation, he only dealt with a group of people on the surface, but the fall of many officials still caused the prince to suffer heavy losses.

If the prince wants to re-establish a layout in the south of the Yangtze River, he needs a lot of money.And it coincides with Qintian's prediction that this year's Zhili area may experience a once-in-a-century snowstorm.Only then did the governor of Zhili go to the imperial court to ask the imperial court to pre-allocate a sum of disaster relief funds.

The governor of Zhili is a member of Suo'etu, so the money naturally fell into the purse of Suo'etu's party.But the funds for disaster relief are all recorded, so it is not easy to embezzle them privately.That's why the governor of Zhili and the Suo'etu party in the capital worked together to launder money through money houses and pawnshops.

Mrs. Liu was just being used by him, Liu Zhi. After thinking about these joints, Fei Yanggu felt a bit afraid.If he was implicated, the emperor's crimes would be light if he punished himself.So that night, Man Fu was ordered to deal with Mrs. Liu,

To say that Mrs. Liu's death was miserable.In order to look like an emergency attack or sudden death, Man Fu ordered the servant to prepare mulberry paper.Seeing Man Fu coming over with a stack of mulberry paper, Mrs. Liu still didn't understand what Man Fu wanted to do. When she saw what the boy brought up, her face turned pale instantly, she looked at Man Fu in horror, and screamed in her mouth, "no, do not want!"

Where did Man Fu listen to her, he took off the prepared mulberry paper and covered her face.He took the burning knife handed over by the boy next to him, took a sip, put it in his mouth and vigorously sprayed it on the bound Liu's face, and a fine mist immediately came out.The mulberry paper was damp and softened, and it was immediately attached to Liu's face.Seeing this, Man Fu immediately covered the second one, and did the same.

Liu struggled with his hands and feet at first, but when the fifth card was used, he stopped moving.Seeing that Mrs. Liu was silent, Man Fu let out a sigh of relief.

However, he has always been cautious in handling things. After a cup of tea, he still walked forward and inspected it carefully.The five sheets of mulberry paper are stacked together, and they are almost dry.Man Fu stretched out his hand, and uncovered one by one, each of which was concave and convex, just like the mask of "jumping and adding officials" on the stage.

Seeing this, Man Fu shook his head and murmured to himself, "You've been liberated... Let's have a good pregnancy in your next life." Turning around, he ordered the rough envoys who had been waiting outside to carry Mrs. Liu back to the west courtyard.

After Liu's death, Fei Yanggu ordered people to erase the traces of Liu's going to the pawn shop and bank.In order to prevent accidents, Liu's sudden death due to an emergency was reported to the government.

Fei Yanggu breathed a sigh of relief when everything was arranged properly.Fearing that Jue Luo would be worried, he explained to Jue Luo what Liu had done.After hearing this, Jue Luo was also afraid for a while, he never imagined that his one thought of benevolence almost brought disaster to his family.

And the series of actions taken by Master Sheng after returning to court also made Fei Yanggu feel very lucky that he dealt with Liu Shi in time.
