The Male Wife

Chapter 287

On this day, New Southwest was under martial law.

The city lord, Shi Tienan, posted a notice very seriously. The content of the notice probably said that the city lord's mansion has lost a valuable item that is related to the life and death of Xinxinan. The thieves have not found it yet, but they can be sure. The thief is still hiding in New Southwest, so now the gates of the city are closed and only allowed to enter but not to exit.

The full name is uproar.

Everyone is actually very surprised that Xinxinan, a small city that is not very rich, still hides things from the morning meeting of the value chain, so everyone does not really believe what the city owner said, but now Xinxinan has really closed the city gates. After being allowed to enter or not, everyone began to guess what the city lord had lost.

The guards of the City Lord's Mansion carried a big knife at their waists every day, and patrolled the street aggressively with their heads up and their chests up. The name was to find out that damned thief as soon as possible.

Three days later, when the lives of the common people were gradually disturbed like this.Everyone began to complain, but they didn't say anything, they just kept discussing the so-called thief.

The hidden guards of the Inorganic Pavilion helped all the guys used by the blacksmith over at night, and then let Chen Fei lead the craftsmen and a small group of hidden guards in the Inorganic Pavilion to secretly work in the back mountain of the City Lord's Mansion at night.

They will melt this batch of silver once, and then make it into broken silver.

Otherwise, all of this batch of silver will be stamped with the official seal, and if it is spent, it will be a dead end.

At the beginning, Pei Cheng followed Jiang Linzhi to come over occasionally at night, but when he found that the temperature inside the stone wall would become very high due to the furnace, which made him unbearable, Pei Cheng gave up.

So Jiang Linzhi often came to inspect.

The hidden guards of the Inorganic Pavilion will come to two teams every night, one team is responsible for making silver in full swing, and the other team will patrol the vicinity, and a group of people will come to hand over in the middle of the night.

Five days later, after Shi Tienan sent Jiang Linzhi away, he turned around and returned to the mansion. He said to the butler Liu San, "Liu San, go and call Sanqing for me."

Liu San is the third eldest at home, and his parents have never been to school, and they don't know how to choose a name with a good meaning, so they just call him Liu San.

Liu San nodded, and asked Shi Sanqing to go to the study to find Shi Tienan.

The servant next to Liu San couldn't help but muttered: "Steward Liu, why did you say that the city lord has become so strange these days, and I haven't heard of any priceless things being brought to the family some time ago."

The housekeeper Liu San has been worrying about this matter all this time, and he was already worried enough, but the boy was still whispering something in his ear that made him unhappy, Liu San just stared and said coldly : "Are you really too busy to have nothing to do? What the city master does is the city master's business. What are you talking nonsense? You go ask the young master to go to the study to find the city master. I'm dizzy, so I'll go back and rest first."

With that said, the butler Liu San walked towards the other side.

The servant was scolded for no reason, but felt that he could not calm down. Looking at the back of the butler Liu San leaving in a hurry, he always felt strange, "Why is this butler always acting weird all this time? Isn’t it a guilty conscience?”

The servant went to the West Wing to look for Shi Sanqing for his own amusement.

On the other side, the butler Liu San pushed open the door with a gloomy face and walked into his room. He turned around and closed the door, then locked it, and then went into the back room. He took a chair and placed it in front of the bookshelf. Take the box off the shelf.

He casually threw the box on the ground, and then took down the small box that was originally placed inside. Then he waited carefully for the small box, walked to the low couch, sat down, and opened the small box.

Inside the small box were a stack of brand new hundred tael bank notes and thousand tael bank notes, a small glowing night pearl, and a few pieces of jade.These were all quietly taken out from the city lord's private treasury before.

The housekeeper Liu San saw that the contents in the small box were still there, and the hanging heart in his heart finally relaxed. He closed the small box carefully, and then put it back to its original place.

Butler Liu San suddenly realized something was wrong.

No, before he secretly took out these things before, he always secretly took things that were about to turn gray in the corner and would not be discovered by others. At that time, he was worried that Shi Tienan would find out, so he kept taking them every day. Every time I limit the amount, I have never dared to take too much in one go, so how could it be discovered?

Liu San walked around the room with a calculated expression on his face. He felt that something was wrong, because he felt that something good might happen to him.

What Shi Tienan said to the outside world is that the priceless good things are gone, but now the family feels weird these days, could it be that Shi Tienan really secretly hid a lot of good things?

Thinking of this, Liu San thought for a while, and felt that no matter what happened to him, he still had to go to the study to see why Shi Tienan was looking for Shi Sanqing.

Liu San couldn't help rubbing his fists, if there were really a lot of good things hidden in Shi Tienan's private treasury, then he really couldn't sit idly by.

Thinking of this, Liu San couldn't sit still anymore, he immediately got up and ran out.

Candles were still burning in the study.

Liu San held a cup, squatted outside the window, and listened to the conversation between Shi Tienan and Shi Sanqing in the room.

Shi Sanqing sat on the chair, his face was full of worry, "Father, what if someone finds out about this?"

"How do I know what to do." Shi Tienan walked around the room, scratching his hair anxiously, "But the pavilion master is right, there is only one good solution left now, if we don't solve it quickly, we will avoid long nights and dreams."

Shi Sanqing has been feeling very wrong for the past two days. Although the commotion in Houshan in the middle of the night is not very loud, it is not very quiet. Now they can cover it up by looking for priceless goodies, but if someone really If asked, what else could they say?

Shi Tienan has not been able to sleep well at night these past few days, he couldn't help but said: "Who made your father so confused before that he actually believed the second prince, and now things have turned out like this, I don't want to, but what do I have? There is no way, now I can only pray that things can be resolved as soon as possible."

"They made such a big commotion in the back mountain, what if someone finds out about it?" Shi Sanqing always felt that their method of melting silver directly in the back mountain of their home was recruiting blackmail for the city lord's mansion, but But he didn't dare to put forward his opinion with Jiang Linzhi, "I'm not worried about being discovered, this City Lord's Mansion is full of our people, even if they are really discovered by the family members, they will not speak out."

Shi Tienan pulled a handful of hair, "I made a mistake, and the pavilion master can forgive me now, I am already very grateful, how dare you ask for anything, are you right?"

Shi Sanqing just couldn't bear to let his father's life be so bad, "Father, why don't you tell the Pavilion Master to let them find a new place and take all the official money away, and do these things directly in the mountain behind our house , I always feel panicked.”

"Soon, according to their speed, it will take about half a month to complete this matter." Shi Tienan also thought about it, but he didn't know how to speak, his tone was full of regret.

Liu San outside the window had a complicated expression on his face. After talking to the father and son for a long time, they still didn't get to the point.But after hearing it now, Liu San finally knew that the recent commotion of these people was not aimed at him.As long as it's not aimed at himself, then Liu San doesn't care.

Liu San patted the dust on his knees, just wanted to get up, and left secretly, but the next second after hearing what Shi Tienan said from inside the house, Liu San stood there dumbfounded as if he had been struck by lightning. The expression on his face was full of disbelief.My God, this is a serious crime to exterminate the Nine Races. How dare these guys do such a thing?

Shi Tienan in the house said in the room: "At the beginning, I shouldn't just agree to the second prince to help him hide this batch of official money. Now the new emperor is looking for this batch of money all over the world. If the second prince is caught by the new emperor, he will give it up at that time." Us, what shall we do?"

Shi Sanqing's tone was also full of decadence, "But father, we don't... Forget it, let's choose to trust the pavilion master." Liu San's expression was full of shock, money?

Some time ago, the second prince removed two-thirds of the treasury's silver from the treasury, which had already spread throughout Huaguo. This matter has not lost its popularity, so Liu San naturally knows it very well.

It's just that Liu San never imagined that the two-thirds of Ku Yin that the second prince moved away would be hidden in the City Lord's Mansion.

My God, this stone iron man usually looks very honest, he doesn't look like he will make mistakes, but who knows that he will do such an earth-shattering thing now.

Shi Sanqing and Shi Tienan in the room were still discussing this matter in a low voice, they had no idea that there was a butler named Liu San squatting in the corner who had already heard all their conversation.

Liu San's face was full of complexities. He heard that the father and son in the room quickly turned to other topics after they finished talking about this matter. Lips left quietly.

Shi Sanqing took a sip of tea, "Father, let's not worry about this matter anymore, let's wait for the pavilion master to solve it."

Shi Tienan also thought the same way, "During this period of time, you look at the back mountain. Although there will be hidden guards to patrol during the day, but...you should be careful about such things, and you must not let others know."

Shi Sanqing nodded solemnly, he knew that this matter should not be spread casually, "Yes, father."

Shi Tienan heaved a sigh of relief.
