"I dare not say that this guess is definitely correct, but there is indeed a high chance." At this point, Guarjia said with some fear: "Thank you for letting Liu Hu pay attention to the people on the Queen's side. What a coincidence, the Queen
People are following us like willows, otherwise we would have missed this opportunity."
Mentioning the Nala family, Ling Ruo suddenly remembered the play she ordered when she met the Nala family in Changyin Pavilion and what Xiao Ningzi said. She didn't think much about it at the time, only thinking that Xiao Ningzi was in
It was ironic to myself, but now that I think about it, I feel that he may not have meant it that way.
Shumulus went to ask Nala to help her save his own Amma, but Nala was just using him to deceive each other. Even if he agreed to help, he must have had other ideas in mind, otherwise he would not have sent someone to follow Ruliu.
The queen revived the Shumulu family, but her control over her has not been strong. If she can find out the whereabouts of the 120,000 taels of silver, she can completely control the Shumulu family and let her be used for her own purposes.
chess piece.
Therefore, Monkey Sun is Shumulu, and Nala is Tathagata Buddha. No matter how much Shumulu tries, he can never escape Nala's grasp. And this... is the real intention of Xiao Ningzi's words.
This guess was confirmed on the second day. Liu Hu came back. That day, after he followed Ruliu and the Nala family out of the city, they went all the way to a mountain in Chengzhou, where the ancestors of the Shumulu family were hidden.
After Ruliu found the largest ancestral tomb, he went down the mountain to find a few peasants and asked them to help dig out the ancestral grave and take out heavy boxes one by one. Just as Ruliu was about to ask the peasants to transport the boxes.
When they were going down the mountain, the man from Nala's family suddenly took action and knocked out Ru Liu. He opened the box and checked it. Looking over from where Liu Hu was hiding, he could only see a corner of the box, but it was enough because that corner was all white.
Huahua's silver. If Ruliu hadn't led the way, who would have thought that Shu Mulu Gongming would hide the silver in his ancestral grave. No wonder Li Wei found nothing after searching for so long. He was really cunning.
Now that he knew the whereabouts of the silver, Liu Hu naturally had no reason to let it go. He took advantage of the man's inattention and attacked and injured him. However, the man's martial arts was indeed very high, and he had a fierce fight with Liu Hu after he was injured.
After subduing the man, Mrs. Liu asked the frightened civilians to transport the silver down the mountain, then hired a carriage to rush to the capital and handed it over to Tai Li, who was impeaching Shu Mulu Gongming.
Tai Li was overjoyed to see the giant silver he had been looking for for a long time. Although his daughter in the palace asked him to do this, he is a person who hates evil and can impeach one more corrupt official.
, it was just because the whereabouts of the money had been unknown, so even though he was repeatedly impeached, he still had no confidence in his heart. Now that the money was found, Shu Mulu Gongming could not escape the death penalty even if he had great ability.
After hearing Yang Hai's story, Ling Ruo, who had been frowning for several days, finally relaxed, "It's really hard on Guard Liu this time. Yang Hai, please thank him on my behalf."
"Hey." Yang Hai agreed and then said: "Master, Liu Shiwei also has a few words for the servant to tell the master. He said that the Queen and Hui Guiren had almost learned about the interception of the silver at this time, and Li Shumulu
There are still a few days until Gongming's trial starts, so Master, please be careful what they do."
"I know." Ling Ruo knew in her heart that as long as Shu Mulu Gongming's death penalty is not determined, even if the situation seems to be one-sided, she must not take it lightly.
Just as Liu Hu guessed, Shumulu and Nala got the news one after another that the money had been intercepted. For Shumulu, this news was like a thunderbolt from the blue. Her mind went blank and she was so stunned that she couldn't say a word.
.
"I didn't do what my master told me well. I deserve to die!" Ruliu knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing, her heart full of guilt. She had been very careful along the way, but she didn't expect to be followed. As soon as she took out the money, she was
She was knocked unconscious. When she woke up, the large boxes of money were gone and the husband was gone. When she got off in a hurry,
After Shan found some peasants, he learned that a man had knocked him unconscious. But after he fainted, another man appeared and fought with them. In the end, the money was robbed by the man who appeared later, but they
He didn't know the identities of the two men, but he only knew that the carriage carrying the silver seemed to be heading to the capital.
"How could this happen?" Mrs. Shumulu fell down in her chair in despair. According to Ru Liu, someone was clearly following her all the way, and the purpose was the silver. But when Ru Liu went out of the palace to get the silver, she and Ru Liu were the only two people.
I know, how can others know, and there are two groups of people.
If Ru Liu had not always been loyal to her, she would almost suspect that Ru Liu was betraying her secretly...
"It's all my fault. The slave is guilty. Please punish me!" Ru Liu said with tears. She knew how important this money was to her master, but she lost it. In this way, it is very likely that
It will kill the master.
"What's the use of talking about this now!" Mrs. Shumulus shouted distractedly, and then forced herself to calm down. It was obvious that those two groups of people were not bandits who acted on the spur of the moment, otherwise they would definitely not have transported the money.
The emperor is at his feet. What are their identities?
After being shouted at by her, Ruliu did not dare to speak anymore and knelt on the ground quietly until Mr. Shumulu asked again: "Besides knowing that they transported the silver back to the capital, what else do you know?"
Ru Liu thought about it carefully and said: "I heard from the civilian husband that both of them have good martial arts. The man in front of him also said that the person behind him is extraordinary, so let the wise man behind him retreat immediately."
"Extraordinary..." Mr. Shumulus murmured and repeated these four words, trying to find some clues from them, but after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out. On the contrary, his head hurt.
If she just lost the money, she wouldn't have such a headache. Although tens of thousands of taels of silver are difficult to collect, she can still find a way to avoid the money falling into the hands of Taili and the others. In this way, Amma's crime of embezzlement can be eliminated.
It was really hard to believe that not only Amma was going to die, but he himself would also have a hard time surviving.
Damn it, how could things have turned out like this? I thought that as long as I got the money and gave it to the Queen, she would have someone take it to clear the Ministry of Punishment and avoid Amma's imprisonment. Unexpectedly...
Just when Mrs. Shumulu was worried about this incident, a thought suddenly came to her mind, could it be... The queen said she needed tens of thousands of taels of silver to clear the bridge, but in fact she wanted to deceive herself into taking out the money, and then
Try to seize it. As for its intention, there are two possibilities. One is to covet the money; the other is to use the money to control her. In comparison, the second one may be bigger.
