Chapter 530 The Missing Mr. Zhang
Liu Xi bowed with gratitude and replied:
"Thank you, Prince Yu. I will definitely guard this gate to death until the emperor recovers."
Leng Yu nodded and turned around and left with Xiao Lingzi, Xiao Gemini and others.
Since there are so many people here, he had to give up his idea of seeing Luo Lan and just write a letter and let someone convey it on his behalf. I believe that no matter what decision he makes, his wife will support him unconditionally.
Seeing that he was leaving, Concubine Li glared at Concubine Li and reached out. The girl beside her hurriedly helped her up. She picked up the handkerchief in her hand and wiped the corner of her mouth, and said in a cold voice:
"Sister Li, didn't you say that the emperor has woken up? Why did Prince Yu say that the emperor will wake up in seven days? Sister, I'm not in good health, so I can't kneel here for seven days. You can't kneel down by yourself."
Concubine Li was also supported by Madam Lu, stood up from the ground, rolled her eyes, and said to herself coldly:
"Hmph! A bunch of ungrateful things, sooner or later, will you regret it."
After leaving this inconspicuous sentence, she shook her graceful figure, shook the veil in her hand, and headed towards Liyuan.
The next morning, Leng Yu took Xiao Lingzi and others to the treasury. He was preparing to escort the cash bank personally and immediately took the victims to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang area.
However, when they arrived at the gate of the treasury, they were stopped.
"The prince, the treasury is important to the treasury, except for Lord Zhang of the Ministry of Revenue, others cannot enter."
"presumptuous."
Xiao Lingzi took two steps forward, pointed at the several officials guarding the treasury gate, and shouted loudly:
"The emperor issued an order to give Prince Yu the full authority to deal with all the affairs of the Daning Kingdom. You dare to use a second-rank minister of the Ministry of Revenue to suppress Prince Yu. It's so bold. I think you don't want to live anymore."
Xiao Lingzi's words, coupled with Leng Yu's majesty, made the officials guarding the door bow their heads timidly.
Seeing this, Leng Yu said calmly:
"I have ordered someone to notify Lord Zhang. He will arrive later. You can open the treasury door first. The amount of silver I need is a long time."
The head official hesitated for a moment, nodded and said:
"Yes, I will open the door now..."
After saying that, he raised his right hand and waved it, and a man ran over with a huge key. He took the key and came to the red painted copper door, opened the door and looked at it.
The copper lock that is extremely hard.
The moment the door opened, it was pitch black inside. Leng Yu was about to raise his foot and walked forward. The official replied in a low voice:
"Prince, the door of the national treasury was designed by Lord Zhang. There are three doors in total. The key of the first door is in Huyi's hand, the key of the second and third doors is not... "
The gatekeeper said that Leng Yu's eyebrows were instantly twisted together. What's the use of opening only one door? Would he just let him look at a dark corridor?
He turned around and ordered Xiao Lingzi:
"Why haven't Lord Zhang come yet?"
"The person who went to the transmission has come back long ago, so it should have arrived."
"Go and pass..."
Leng Yu's eyes sank for a moment, and Xiao Lingzi hurriedly ordered his subordinates to pass on Lord Zhang.
Time passed little by little, until the sun was noon, and Lord Zhang still did not appear. Leng Yu's face suddenly became gloomy. He questioned Xiao Lingzi again:
"Have the person who went to the communication came back?"
Xiao Lingzi tightened his brows and nodded and replied:
"He came back, he said, Lord Zhang responded that he came to the treasury to get the money. There were many procedures. He was going through the procedures in the Ministry of Revenue and would arrive later."
"It's already noon, what procedures need to be completed all morning? Let's go to the Ministry of Revenue to take a look..."
After saying that, Leng Yu turned over and took a group of people to the Ministry of Revenue.
But when they rushed to the Ministry of Revenue, they found that Lord Zhang was not in the Ministry of Revenue, and no one knew where he was going.
Leng Yu suddenly had a bad premonition, and Xiao Lingzi also whispered in his ear:
"Prince, this Lord Zhang must have a problem. Let's go to the Shangshu Mansion to have a look."
Leng Yu did not respond, but turned his horse's head and headed straight for Shangshu's room.
When they came to the Shangshu Mansion, there seemed to be nothing unusual here. When the butler saw Leng Yu, he hurriedly came forward to salute.
"Prince Yu, why are you free to come to Shangshu Mansion? Lord Zhang is not here."
"Where has he gone?"
"I don't know, Lord Zhang left in the morning."
Hearing this, Leng Yu's face became increasingly ugly. He looked at the Shangshu Mansion and suddenly felt a lit up.
Although the two pots of giant longevity pine trees in the courtyard of the Shangshu Mansion look very ordinary, they will not grow like that in a few hundred years. There are also the pots of beautiful Western orchids in the corner of the wall.
It looks very valuable, and even the prince, he is rarely seen.
From this point of view alone, the Shangshu Mansion is already several streets away from his Yu Wang Mansion. It seems that Lord Zhang’s life is very rich.
Thinking of this, his eyebrows sterned, and he raised his voice and said:
"The king is waiting for him in the mansion."
After saying that, he was about to lift his foot into the door, and the butler rushed forward to stop him,
"Prince, Lord Zhang is not here, the mansion is full of female relatives. It is not convenient for you men to enter, right?"
Seeing that the butler deliberately did not want them to come in, Xiao Lingzi went forward and questioned:
"Aren't you a man? Are you a man? Prince Yu went to the main hall of Shangshu Mansion to wait for Lord Zhang. If you have something important to find him, you are not going to the backyard of your Shangshu Mansion. Do you dare to stop it? It delays the main business, you
Can you afford it?"
The housekeeper was frightened by Xiao Lingzi's words, and he bent down and replied in a low voice:
"This... this is the order of the lord. No... no strangers are allowed to enter the mansion..."
The more the butler said this, Leng Yu felt that there was something wrong with the Shangshu Mansion. After he waved his hand to Xiao Lingzi and others, they directly blocked the butler and a few servants.
"Prince, please..."
Leng Yu took a big step with a serious expression, shouting at the butler beside him:
“Leading the way forward.”
Seeing that the stop was useless, the housekeeper did not dare to neglect it, so he trotted forward two steps and took Leng Yu quickly to the main hall of Shangshufang.
The decoration of the Shangshu Mansion is very ordinary, and it even makes people feel a little shabby. Leng Yu looked around here carefully and suddenly a fragrance came to his nose. He turned around and looked at it, and his eyes were instantly covered by a golden silk on the table in the corner of the wall.
The phoenix incense bottle attracted.
He clearly remembered that he had seen this bottle when he was visiting an antique shop in the city. It was a Gentile item, and the price was as high as 100,000 taels. Because of this high value, he had a deep impression of this incense bottle.
Such an expensive incense bottle was placed casually in the Shangshu Mansion, which was really used to light incense. This... it really opened Leng Yu's eyes.
He turned to the butler and said:
"Take me to Mr. Zhang's study to take a look."
"this……"
The butler stood up in a dilemma.
"Mr. Zhang's study is not allowed to enter, and the second wife is doing the work of cleaning the study..."
"Then go and invite the second wife..."
Leng Yu's voice just fell, and a soft voice sounded at the door.
Chapter completed!
