All that was stolen was official silver.
This problem can be big or small.
Shi Qingxue didn't dare to think about the implications.
However, Mo Junyang did not immediately answer her doubts and said, "That's why I said, this matter is definitely not as simple as you think."
Shi Qingxue was silent for a moment and asked, "Do you want to investigate this matter yourself, or did the emperor ask you to investigate it?"
Mo Junyang asked calmly: "Is there any difference?"
"Of course there is a difference!" Shi Qingxue said eagerly.
After she finished speaking, she realized that she was too excited and quickly adjusted her breathing.
Then he continued: "If the emperor asked you to investigate, then he should give you manpower! If there is a problem, or what is found is not satisfactory, he should be the one to take care of it for you from behind!
But if you want to check it yourself..."
Shi Qingxue took a breath and did not continue talking.
Because she discovered that this seemed to be the truth.
And, she really told the truth.
Mo Junyang nodded and said calmly: "Seeing that neither the Ministry of Justice nor the Kyoto Prefecture could find out the truth, the Emperor withdrew the previously established task force and instead organized manpower to dominate public opinion.
As long as the people are not suspicious, there is nothing else to worry about. "
His voice was calm and straightforward.
But Qingxue could somehow hear the sarcasm in his words.
"Since even the emperor has stopped investigating, why are you still insisting on finding out the truth?" Shi Qingxue blurted out.
But the moment she said it, she actually already guessed the reason.
Mo Junyang's answer was very concise and concise, "That batch of official silver, at least tens of millions of taels, is real gold and silver. I want to know the whereabouts of this money."
Wasn't it robbed by bandits
Shi Qingxue answered silently in her heart.
But now, even she can no longer deceive herself.
From the beginning, Qingxue felt that such a 'sensational' robbery was unlikely to be committed by ordinary bandits.
At least it's not just something that the rogues can accomplish on their own!
After all, it was such a huge consumption. If they really had the ability, they would just be bandits and rebel.
Furthermore, it can be said that it was a coincidence that the official silver was stolen once or twice.
In so many thefts, all official money was stolen.
coincide
Oh, she doesn’t believe it!
This group of bandits was obviously going for Guanyin.
And he was able to succeed time and time again, even if he said there was no internal agent, she wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.
Finally, Mo Junyu's attitude was really weird.
All this money comes from the national treasury!
Everyone can be indifferent, but Mo Junyu should not have the current attitude of staying aloof.
"What do you suspect he's going to do with the money?"
There were no outsiders here, and Shi Qingxue's questions were direct and not subtle at all.
But Mo Junyang himself didn't have a clue, "I don't know yet. I have to find out the whole thing first before talking about it."
Say more
Shi Qingxue raised an eyebrow at Mo Junyang's choice of words, thinking, if the truth is really found out, with your current delicate relationship with Mo Junyu, how are you going to say it
However, Qingxue guessed that Mo Junyang's current mood was not too beautiful, so she obediently did not cause any trouble for him.
Just nod and offer your opinion.
"Actually, this matter is difficult but not unsolvable. At least you have guessed part of the truth, right?"
Especially when investigating cases like theirs, there is no need to list evidence at all.
She could guess some clues.
Mo Junyang definitely knows no less than she does.
Mo Junyang was silent for a while, then nodded, but said slyly: "But if you can't restore the whole thing, you are not qualified to judge anything."
This was the first time that Shi Qingxue knew that Mo Junyang was so thirsty for knowledge!
But after thinking about it, it seems easy to understand.
Among them, Mo Junyu is also involved!
Who said her husband was ruthless
Even though there is a gap between the two people now, Mo Junyang has never regarded people as enemies, and even solves the other party's troubles within his own ability.
Even someone as smart as Mo Junyang would not be willing to be the first to suspect Mo Junyu even though he knew that Mo Junyu was suspicious.
On the contrary, Mo Junyu seems to have multiple emotions on the surface, and has been sentimental many times because of Mo Junyang's indifference and alienation.
But when Mo Junyang's life experience was exposed, the emotional Mo Junyu didn't even have the courage to ask Mo Junyang for confirmation. The first step he thought of was to despicably imprison Shi Qingxue in order to grasp Mo Junyang's weakness. .
The behavior was so bad that Shi Qingxue didn't even bother to comment.
Shi Qingxue sighed heavily, walked to Mo Junyang, put her arms around his neck, and for the first time, took the initiative to sit on Jun Yang's lap.
She rested her head on Jun Yang's shoulder and said in a low voice: "When this matter is resolved, we will take Qingmin and move out of Kyoto and choose a place with mountains and rivers to live temporarily!
After a while, if you miss your father, how about we return to Beijing, or occasionally invite your father to live in our Zhuangzi? "
The moment he heard Shi Qingxue's proposal, Mo Junyang's dark eyes instantly lit up.
My heart trembled uncontrollably.
Living together with Shi Qingxue, isolated from the world, had been his dream for most of his life.
Well, maybe one more Shi Qingmin will be added.
Mo Junyang thought so hard that he was eager to nod in agreement immediately.
But what doesn’t work, still doesn’t work.
Mo Junyang gave a wry smile and deliberately said in a teasing tone: "Do you want to give up your position as the most noble concubine?"
Shi Qingxue shook her head without thinking.
As long as Mo Junyang is there, does the Crown Princess have nothing to care about
"You don't want your Shi family anymore?"
Shi Qingxue paused for a moment, and a trace of sadness flashed across her face, but she still said firmly: "As long as Mom and the others are well, I have nothing to worry about. Besides, I just stay away from Kyoto, a place of right and wrong, and it's not like I won't see each other forever. It doesn't matter. of."
She said the last four words very softly, and she didn't know whether she was telling Mo Junyang or simply to convince herself.
Making such a decision, Shi Qingxue felt uncomfortable.
But strangely, she didn't feel regretful.
If Shi Junhe was still alive, or if Dong Hui and Shi Baoning hadn't broken her heart again and again, she might have difficulty making a choice.
But now, all she wants is to live well with Mo Junyang.
They have experienced too much pain and suffering in their two lives. For them, no matter how powerful or powerful they are, they are not as tempting as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
Moreover, Shi Qingxue believed that as long as she lived with Mo Junyang, even the most ordinary civilian life would be very interesting.
Shi Qingxue's longing made Mo Junyang unable to help but fall into this beautiful idea, and he almost agreed.
But in the end, the man just pursed his lips and asked again: "At that time, did you not care about the family army?"
Shi Qingxue's breathing stagnated and she was stunned.
These days, her life with Mo Junyang was so wonderful that she almost forgot about the power she took over from Shi Junhe.
It is also a responsibility that she cannot escape.
Shi Qingxue bit her lower lip in frustration.
How could she forget that she was no longer the carefree Shi Liuniang she used to be.
Holding the order of the Shi family and being the leader of the Shi family army, there is no way to walk away!
If Shi Jiajun is doing well and at his peak, and she stays away from Kyoto and only returns to Kyoto every now and then to visit, it may not have any impact.
After all, she is a girl. She is said to lead the Shi family army, but she is more like the spiritual leader of the Shi family army.
But it happened that Shi Jiajun had just recovered from the pain of losing her coach, and there was no way she could walk away no matter what.
Shi Qingxue's face was filled with embarrassment and shame.
He was the one who said so eloquently just now that he wanted to leave with Mo Junyang, but now he is the one who wants to regret it.
What would Mo Junyang think of her!
How embarrassing!
However, Mo Junyang was not willing to let Shi Qingxue fall into this self-loathing mood.
He hugged her and whispered in her ear: "It's okay, I know you, I know you..."
He understands her and knows that there are many things that she can't let go of.
He didn't even want her to worry about it.
Moreover, seclusion is indeed his and her dream, but he rarely thinks about it.
The identities of the two of them are destined, and it is impossible for them to really leave everything behind and isolate themselves from the world.
Shi Qingxue lay lazily on Mo Junyang's shoulder, feeling depressed.
After thinking about it, he said angrily: "You said that since we are all so lucky to be reborn, why can't we be reborn among ordinary people?"
Mo Junyang was amused by Shi Qingxue's lofty ideals.
I couldn't help teasing you: "You are a spoiled little lady who has lived in fine clothes and fine food since you were a child. How can you endure the common people's life of being clothed in clothes and wearing hairpins, living in poverty and suffering from hunger and cold?"
Although it was a question, Mo Junyang's eyes clearly read: You can't stand it.
Shi Qingxue immediately became angry, pouted unhappily, and said angrily: "I'm not as squeamish as you think, okay
When I was a child, I went to the military camp with my grandfather and father to receive training, and I suffered a lot! And during those years in the cold palace in my previous life..."
Before she finished speaking, Mo Junyang raised his hand and covered her mouth, "Stop talking."
The years when Shi Qingxue was in the cold palace were the days that Mo Junyang regretted the most.
In his previous life, decades after Qingxue's death, he had been wondering why he had preferred An Ruicheng for so many years. How could he ignore that Qingxue was suffering in the cold palace, while he had been delayed in Ruicheng for so long.
He had imagined countless times that if he had fought back to Kyoto earlier, it would not matter even if the chance of victory would be much smaller; it would not matter even if there would be greater bloodshed and sacrifice.
He might be able to rescue Shi Qingxue!
Shi Qingxue would never know that the days when she suffered in the cold palace had already become her nightmare.
I often wake up from my dreams in the middle of the night, sweating profusely, and find it difficult to sleep again.
Just thinking about it made him heartbroken.
He couldn't bear to see her suffering.
Not at all, reluctant to give up.
He wished he could give the most beautiful things in the world to Shi Qingxue.
