Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

   Chapter 989 989. House full of gold

   "So strange?" Chu Tang was thoughtful.

   "I also find it strange. I wanted to continue to investigate, but was discovered, so I had to give up and come to report." Mu Xiao wanted to make contributions to save his life, and he worked very hard.

   "I'll do the next thing, you go to rest." Chu Tang waved to Mu Xiao.

  Mu Xiao withdrew.

  Chu Tang waited for the dark, and then sneaked into the Wenfu. He did not expect to see the scene of moving goods.

  Wen Mansion’s back door, many people gathered there, and cartloads of sacks were unloaded from carriages, and then moved into Wenfu’s warehouse.

  There are not many people in the Wenfu, and the backyard is full of large empty rooms, where all things are placed at this time.

   It took a while for the goods to be unloaded. Chu Tang waited for them to finish unloading, and then left with those people. I will check on the affairs in Wenfu later.

   I didn't expect those convoys to go out of the city overnight, and their aura didn't look like ordinary cargo convoys, they felt like soldiers.

   This reminded Chu Tang of the lost military rations. Could it be that they were robbed by the Wen family?

  If the guess is correct, then the Wen family is not so powerful, and should only be regarded as a participant, responsible for selling the stolen military rations, and the mastermind must be someone else!

  Chu Tang conjectured, seeing what the leader showed the gatekeeper, and then the gatekeeper opened the city gate and let them go.

  The opening and closing of the city gates are managed by the government office. Could it be that the government official also participated in it?

  Things are getting more and more complicated.

  After those people left, the gatekeeper closed the city gate again, looking furtive and guilty.

   Chu Tang had no time to look at these people, he flew out from the tower and continued to follow.

   Unexpectedly, those people went to the barracks of the Tangling defenders.

   Could this be what King Tangling meant?

  Chu Tang For a moment, many guesses appeared in his mind, and finally he suppressed it, and verified one guess after another.

  Thinking like this, he returned to Wenfu and sneaked into one of the warehouses to check.

There are rice, corn, beans, and wheat in the sack, which are really military supplies. People eat rice and corn, and horses feed wheat and beans. Horses in the military camp live better than humans, and they need to feed every day. Beans and wheat are Constituents of concentrated feed.

  Chu Tang returned to the Tao Mansion and told Tang Jinghong what he had just discovered, "Did the imperial court send military supplies to Dongling recently?"

  Tang Jinghong told him, "There is a batch, and it will take a few days to reach the border. For the time being, I haven't heard the news that the military supplies are running low."

  Chu Tang said, "If it's missing, tell me, and I'll check Wenfu again."

   Tang Jinghong said, "Okay."

  Cutting off contact, Chu Tang still had some doubts in his heart, so he went to the Wenfu again, but he didn't expect to meet Master Wen going out as soon as he went.

   It's midnight, why did the head of the family go out?

  Chu Tang followed.

  The other party rode a fast horse and went out of the city all the way, in the opposite direction to the direction that the soldiers left before. After leaving the city gate, they joined the two men and galloped away again.

  Chu Tang followed all the way.

  The other party came to Shilipo outside the city. There was a gazebo there. There was a person standing in the gazebo. It was dark and his face could not be seen clearly.

  Chu Tang found a tree and stood there, listening to a few people talking.

   "Second brother." Walking into the gazebo, Master Wen shouted softly.

  The person standing in the gazebo turned around, "Brother." The other party's face was firm, and his demeanor was iron-blooded, much like a soldier.

  Chu Tang observed quietly. The two called brothers and sisters, but they actually looked a bit alike.

  Patriarch Wen smiled when he saw his younger brother, "I asked you to meet, no one else knows, right?"

   "No." Wen Er said carefully, "Brother, you asked me to meet in such a hurry, what's the matter?"

  Patriarch Wen said solemnly, "Tang Jinghong has come to Dongling, it is too dangerous, all activities are suspended, you should keep a low profile during this time, if you can leave, leave as soon as possible."

  Wen Er thought for a while and nodded, "Brother, I understand."

  Patriarch Wen explained again worriedly, "If there is any problem with Big Brother, just follow our agreement, don't panic."

   "Brother, what's the matter with you? What's going to happen?" Wen Er felt that something was wrong and asked quickly.

   "I don't know, I always feel that the danger is around me." Patriarch Wen sighed, "Maybe I'm thinking too much, anyway, remember, everything should be done according to our agreement."

  Wen Er nodded, "Brother, I know."

   "I don't have anything to say here, I'm going back first." Patriarch Wen returned to the city with two subordinates.

  Wen Er stood in the pavilion, watched Master Wen leave, and then prepared to leave.

  Chu Tang came out from the darkness, "Wen Er?"

  Wen Er saw Chu Tang, his heart raised his throat, and he stared at Chu Tang vigilantly, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

  Chu Tang smiled, "I came here with your elder brother, don't be so flustered, I just came to ask you a few questions."

  Wen Er hurriedly said, "I don't know anything, I have nothing to tell you." He felt that Chu Tang was very dangerous, so there was no need to tighten the dagger in his hand.

  Chu Tang flashed his body, walked around behind Wen Er, knocked him out, and took him to the teahouse.

  He threw Wen Er into the middle of the teahouse, "He is the second younger brother of Master Wen, and he is related to the disappearance of the army rations. I have knocked him out now. You can send him to Jing Hong overnight."

  The shopkeeper was secretly startled. The general had reached a dead end in this matter. He didn't expect the young master to find a clue. "Sir, don't you want to interrogate?"

  Chu Tang said, "No need, I'll ask Patriarch Wen, and I'll leave this person to you."

  The shopkeeper replied, "We will deliver it tomorrow morning."

  Chu Tang added, "By the way, I am more aggressive. It will take him two or three days to wake up. You don't have to worry about him being in a coma for a long time."

   "Yes." Everyone mourned for Wen Er in their hearts. How hard would it take to wake up in two or three days? !

   After explaining the good things, Chu Tang left the teahouse and came to the room of the master Wen of Wenfu.

  Patriarch Wen hasn't come back yet, so he has to wait for a while.

  The door suddenly opened, Chu Tang stood in the dark and watched, it was not Wen Jiazhu, but a little woman who came in.

  After the little woman entered the room, she looked for things in Master Wen's room.

  Chu Tang wanted to see what she was looking for, so he didn't make a sound.

  The little woman rummaged through boxes and cabinets, in fact, for the bank notes. She didn't want to stay in the Wen Mansion anymore, and was going to leave, but she had to get a sum of money before leaving.

  Someone told her that the Wen Mansion was going to be in trouble, so she had to leave quickly.

   Surprisingly, this search led her to find the mechanism of the secret room, and opened it by mistake.

  As soon as the door of the secret room was opened, a burst of golden light shone from the secret room, shaking Chu Tang's eyes.

   Room full of gold!

  When the little woman saw this scene, her whole body brightened up, and her eyes sparkled.
