053: Be bold!

According to what the prince of Ye and Meng Huaijin told her, Cheng Qing sorted out a line himself.

The disaster relief silver must have been greedy. In addition, there was a big loss in the military capital of the King of Ye, and some people connected the two things together in a reasonable manner. In order to fill the military capital, the King of Ye intercepted most of the disaster relief silver.

There seems to be no problem logically.

As for how King Ye operated it, I believe the person behind the scenes had made it clear.

Because of this, the emperor involved King Ye. In order to protect King Ye's reputation, he was afraid of King Ye from the bottom of his heart, so he was not going to investigate.

The person behind the scenes is very good at speculating on the will of the Holy One, and took away the disaster relief silver to blame the King of Ye, which made the King of Ye suffer a loss. He also laid a rift between the King of Ye’s Mansion and the Emperor, and separated the relationship between the two.

The King of Ye was suffering and wanted to complain to the emperor that he had not intercepted the disaster relief silver. The military funds were really deficient again. The accounts that Cheng Qing could find out were definitely clear, and the people from the Ministry of Revenue could also be clarified.

If the King of Ye handed over this mess of debts, it would be even more difficult to explain.

After all, it is only when something goes wrong with the Ye Prince’s Mansion that someone can catch the handle and attack. The military capital account is right, and it is not easy to accuse the Ye Prince!

First, the loopholes in the Ye Palace will be blocked so that the prince of Ye can jump out and fight with others.

The prince was also an idea--and traveled thousands of miles to bring a bunch of accounts to Nanyi. Cheng Qing felt that this was fate and a good bridge for her cooperation with the Ye Prince's Mansion.

"It is related to my father's reputation and my own future, and there is also a grudge of killing my father. No matter who is behind the scenes, I am the least likely person to be bribed by the other party. The prince can rest assured. Not only can I check the accounts, I can also make accounts for the prince. I dare to guarantee that the accounts I made will not be exposed if the official of the Ministry of Revenue will check. I think I can come in handy!"

Cheng Qing has no moral pressure to do something like fake accounts.

She was not cooperating with the Ye Prince's Mansion to deceive the court's money, but was paying the bill for the Ye Prince!

As for whether she was helping the evildoer... Cheng Qing couldn't control so much. She made false accounts for the prince of Ye to seek justice for Cheng Zhiyuan. This is the primary purpose, and the others are secondary.

If you don’t have the best time for yourself, how can you have the energy to manage others?

There are faults and debts, but the worst is to poison Cheng Zhiyuan and let Cheng Zhiyuan be the scapegoat!

Cheng Qing volunteered, but Meng Huaijin didn't reply for a long time.

I have no idea how to evaluate Cheng Qing. He is short, thin and young, but he takes the initiative to make false accounts for the prince of Ye.

That was the account of military funds and military expenditures. Cheng Qing wanted to make fake accounts for the prince of Ye to deceive the court. Cheng Qing was braver than Meng Huaijin's expectations, and he also saw Cheng Qing's determination to seek justice for his father.

"...I will tell the prince that the decision will be decided by the prince."

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Meng Huaijin sent Cheng Qing to Yangliu Lane. Cheng Qing smiled and waved goodbye to him. When Meng Huaijin's carriage disappeared from the entrance of the alley, Cheng Qing's smile suddenly stopped.

Instead of going home immediately, she went to the charity village.

The charity village at night was very gloomy. Cheng Qing wanted to worship his deceased father in the middle of the night, and the night watchman was very dissatisfied.

After Cheng Qing gave the money, the other party's attitude changed immediately and he would answer Cheng Qing's questions and answer them all.

"When I say to the young master, except for the fifth family of Cheng and the young master's family, no one comes to worship Lord Cheng."

"I want to worship my father alone..."

"Please give me some advice, please give me some advice, I'll leave first!"

The night watchman left with a lantern. The white candles and black coffins in this room were terrifying, but Cheng Qing was not afraid.

She circled around Cheng Zhiyuan's coffin and said to herself:

"What's scary about ghosts? Living people are more scarier than ghosts."

Liu often comes to worship, and the coffin is wiped cleanly. Cheng Qing doesn't see any reason, but she touched the surroundings of the coffin carefully, and there were two nails bulging in the position of something wrong. Someone really opened the coffin after Cheng Zhiyuan was buried?

"Then, the autopsy is true..."

In addition to pretending to grow up as a son, as a father, Cheng Zhiyuan has nothing incompetent, at least for "Cheng Qing". Among the four children at home, Cheng Zhiyuan gave "Cheng Qing" more care!

Cheng Qing has all those memories, and she empathizes with them.

"So you were poisoned."

"In addition to seeking justice, we also need to arrest the evildoer. Don't worry, I will do both of these things."

Death is inevitable for no one. There is a big difference between suicide and being poisoned. If you expect God to punish the murderer, it would be better for Cheng Qing to do it yourself.

She incense for Cheng Zhiyuan and slowly walked out of the charity house.

It was raining at some point. Si Yan held an umbrella and waited at the gate of the Yizhuang with his eyebrows down. When he saw Cheng Qing coming out, he quickly supported the umbrella over her head, wishing he was wet, so that Cheng Qing would not be wet.

Cheng Qing came to Yizhuang and had never notified anyone. Such a caring servant belonged to the fifth house... Yes, as long as Master Cheng Wu wants to know about what happened in Nanyi County, there is nothing he can hide from him.

"Young Master Qing, the fifth master—"

Si Yan wanted to speak but stopped.

The fifth master sent him and Si Mo to serve Cheng Qing, so they naturally had to obey Cheng Qing's orders.

But this does not mean that they have become Cheng Qing's people. Their body is still in the fifth room, and they have to obey Master Cheng Wu's instructions.

The fifth master’s order is higher than Cheng Qing’s wishes…

Although Cheng Qing is young, he is a very independent person. Although he has no objection to this, he does not really trust him and Si Mo. This is what embarrasses Si Yan.

Fortunately, Cheng Qing didn't care about the details tonight. She wiped away the rain from her face and made only one request to Si Yan:

"I want to meet Uncle Fifth, it won't work tomorrow, it can only be tonight."

...

Nanyi County is really not big. Half an hour later, Cheng Qing appeared in the study of Master Wu.

There was a cup of hot tea in front of her, and Master Cheng Wu looked at her with a calm face.

"Brother Qing, you haven't been to the academy for ten days. Do you still remember your ambition to be admitted to the officialdom? You are an ambitious child, but you have to learn to distinguish between importance!"

"Uncle, are you afraid that I will delay my studies? Or do you want to ask where I went with Senior Brother Meng in the past ten days...Uncle, I really want to tell you, but I can't say that the clan treats me well. You and my uncle take good care of our orphans and widows. I have something I want to do. I promise not to implicate the clan. If there is such a day, the uncle can expel me from the clan, and I won't blame you!"

Is there anything to say?

The prince of Ye came to Nanyi, and the fifth master must have known.

However, seeing through and not saying it out loud, no matter what the prince of Ye wants to do, it has nothing to do with the Cheng family of Nanyi. It is just a deal between Cheng Qing and the prince of Ye.

Cheng Qing felt that he was considering Nanyi Cheng's family, but he made Master Cheng Wu so angry that he slapped the table:
