"This... I remember the master's snoring sound very much. Although I have never heard it with my own ears, I remember that my wife complained more than once. It seems that the servant girl below said it too."

"Then you were in front of the study, did you ever hear you and the master snoring?"

"This... the little one never noticed."

Song Wuya and the old housekeeper asked and answered questions. In the blink of an eye, Song Wuya asked many questions.This made Bai Zhuo very busy. Fortunately, he was not slow in writing and had a good memory, otherwise he would have been unable to record the conversation between the two of them clearly.

Chapter 28 Continue to ask

?Chapter 28 Continue to ask

Master Liu's itinerary still sounds very simple, but after listening to the butler's narration, there are still many things worth pondering.

Song Wuya didn't continue to ask, after all, he had already asked what he should have asked, and if he had any doubts in the future, he could only ask these people again.

Soon, all the questions that should be asked have been asked, and the only thing left is the young and enchanting lady of the Liu family.

Mrs. Liu was dressed in white, which showed that the sackcloth was worn for her husband who had just passed away.Song Wuya stared intently at the alluring Mrs. Liu, the collar of the loose filial dress was wide open.

Such a woman, so enchanting, is really rare to see in this ancient time, and she is much more open than those brothel women.Dressing like this, not to mention being disrespectful to the dead, was also inappropriate to the living in ancient times.However, Song Wuya didn't pay attention to this, after all, could he be wasting it for nothing?He was not in a hurry to ask, and it would not be too late to start after Mrs. Song greeted everyone one by one.

The quality of the filial piety clothes is not very good, with the light outside the door, it is almost transparent, and Song Wuya's angle is more suitable, you can clearly see the outline of Mrs. Song's clothes, it is definitely the kind that makes men fascinated good figure.

I don't know if Mrs. Song didn't notice it, or she just wanted to dress like this to seduce these men.After all, she just lost her husband, and she is a widow at such a young age. She doesn't look like a lonely woman who can restrain herself.

Song Wuya hastily calmed down his emotions, telling himself that he was doing business, and he didn't come here to see women.

"Mrs. Song, can I tell you about Master Liu's itinerary on the day before his death?" The question was very simple, and it was still the same opening question as he had just asked Butler Liu.

After hearing Song Wuya's question, Mrs. Song did not answer in a hurry, but instead pouted her little cherry mouth, and gave Song Wuya a resentful look: "This son, the girl is weak, can you give me a favor?" a seat?"

To Mrs. Liu's words, Song Wuya did not answer, but looked at Situ Yi who was sitting upright.Song Wuya knew this very well, he was nothing here, and Situ Yi had to be the priority in everything.

Situ Yi nodded and motioned for the officer beside him to give him a seat.

After this Mrs. Liu sat down, she looked up at Song Wuya with a smile.

"Young Master, what did you ask Min Daughter just now?"

"Mrs. Song, can I tell you about Master Liu's itinerary on the day before his death?" Song Wuya had no choice but to repeat the question just now.

He couldn't believe that Mrs. Liu had really forgotten what she had just said, she was clearly pretentious.However, Song Wuya didn't bother to pay attention to these, after all, it was nothing at all.

At this time, after listening to Song Wuya's continued questioning, Madam Liu frowned, and after thinking for a while, she replied: "The girl went to the temple fair that day, and when I came back, I found out that the master was in the study, so I went to the study. But seeing that he was very drunk, Minnv persuaded him and was thrown out by him. At that time, Minnv was angry and ignored him, and in the evening she calmed down and went to see him again, who knew that he was still That way, let me tell everyone not to disturb him. I will know what happened after that, and I don’t know what happened to the master in the end. "

Mrs. Liu's answer was short, and she told the whole story before and after. After listening to Song Wuya, she recalled the previous inquiry, and it was completely in line with what Butler Liu said. It seems that what happened that day was That's it.

Afterwards, Song Wuya didn't ask any more questions, after all, there were only so many questions now.The situation that day also appeared in Song Wuya's mind, but what happened to Master Liu that day also revealed a lot of doubts.

After finishing the questioning, Situ Yi, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo returned to the back hall again.

Looking at Song Wuya who was frowning tightly, Bai Zhuo brought the things he recorded just now in front of Song Wuya.Song Wuya looked at the words he wrote down and began to think carefully.

Situ Yi ordered his servants to bring some tea, took a sip, and then asked, "Wu Ya, is there anything wrong with what they said?"

Situ Yi's question interrupted Song Wuya's thinking, and he raised his head to look at Situ Yi.

"There are two doubts." He sighed and began to count: "The reason for Master Liu's death was in his itinerary for the day. In particular, why did Master Liu suddenly return angrily when he went to the temple fair in high spirits? And he had to get drunk. This is a suspicious point, and another suspicious point is that Mrs. Liu came back in a hurry. What makes me think this is a problem is that the housekeeper Liu said that the madam came back in a hurry, and the relationship with the master The interval was not long, but Mrs. Liu did not explain this."

"Then why didn't you ask Mrs. Liu about this just now?" Song Wuya's words made Situ Yi a little confused. Someone brought Mrs. Liu."

Seeing Situ Yi's anxious appearance, Song Wuya hurriedly stood up and stopped him: "Don't worry, uncle, there is no need to rush to solve this doubt. I think these two doubts should be linked together, but don't worry yet. Let's ignore it first, maybe there will be unexpected gains in the future!"

"Hey! I really don't know what's going on in your head! I'll just listen to you first, anyway, I can't make up my mind about this case, so please don't make things difficult for me!" Situ Yi frowned and thought for a while , or compromised with Song Wuya.

At this moment, Song Wuya suddenly thought of something: "By the way, uncle. Where did you get those papers from Mr. Liu's desk that day?"

"Oh, I gave it to Master Zhang, and I'll ask him to bring it." Situ Yi knew that Song Wuya must be looking for clues from these papers at this time.

Song Wuya didn't say much, and Situ Yi immediately came to the door and ordered his servants to look for Master Zhang to come over.

However, before he opened his mouth, he saw a person running in a panic outside the door.

"It's not good, my lord, it's not good!"

The person who came was Master Zhang, who rushed in in a panic, and shouted loudly in the courtyard before he arrived.

"Why are you panicking?" Seeing this, Situ Yi immediately became nervous.

Master Zhang was panting heavily, and his chest was throbbing violently, which showed how panicked he was.Faced with such a situation, Situ Yi hastily turned around and brought him some tea.After Master Zhang took a few breaths violently, he took a sip of tea before he calmed down.

"It's not a big deal! My lord!" The expression on Master Zhang's face became so ugly that he was about to cry.

"Tell me what happened!" Situ Yi was almost dying of anxiety, but Mr. Zhang just didn't say what happened.

"The amount of official bank in the treasury is wrong!" Master Zhang finally explained what was going on with this terrible thing.

Even Song Wuya's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.Even a modern person like him knows what the official bank in the treasury represents!It would be like having a modern central bank stolen.

Situ Yi couldn't sit still immediately, and fell to the ground with a plop.Obviously this is a terrible thing, even Situ Yi, who has been an official for more than ten years, was so desperate when he heard it.

"How much is the difference?" Song Wuya asked hastily.

Master Zhang turned his head to look at Song Wuya, as if he could no longer care about whether Song Wuya was an outsider in this anxious matter, he exclaimed almost without thinking, "It's a whole million taels of silver!"

"What!" Song Wuya suddenly exclaimed, "One million taels of silver!"

This amount is definitely not a small amount, even in modern times, it is definitely not a number.And such an astronomical difference between the government and the bank is definitely not a simple matter. Obviously, even if the previous magistrate falsified the accounts, there would never be such a big discrepancy.

"Uncle! This matter has to be reported to the imperial court as soon as possible, and I request the investigation of the previous governor of Songjiang!" Song Wuya hurriedly said, there is no other way at this time, such an important matter must be reported to the imperial court as soon as possible, otherwise the higher authorities will blame it. Even the crime of concealing and failing to report this matter is not something that Situ Yi can afford.

But now Situ Yi was sitting slumped on the ground, his whole body was in a state of confusion, but Song Wuya's words didn't arouse any reaction from him, he looked at the front with a bitter expression, totally disregarding anything else.

Seeing this, Song Wuya gritted his teeth, looked at Master Zhang and hurriedly said: "Master Zhang, immediately start drafting the playlist, and then show it to your lord!"

Being able to deal with this kind of thing at this moment is thanks to the fact that Song Wuya often watches those ancient TV dramas on weekdays, especially Bao Qingtian, Da Song Ti's Execution Officer, and Detective Di Renjie.

At the same time, his mind immediately thought of a plot he had seen in the TV series Detective Di Renjie, that is, the theft of official money, and the final point of that case was a shocking case of treason.This is the most terrible thing. After all, since the other side dared to move this idea, they must have made complete preparations. Judging from the current situation, the troops that this little Songjiang can mobilize may not be able to suppress the rebellion.

Although Master Zhang was flustered, he was not completely in a mess like Situ Yi. After hearing Song Wuya's words, he hurriedly responded and walked outside.

However, just as he took two steps, Song Wuya stopped him again: "By the way, Mr. Zhang, wait a minute! Where are the blank papers Master Situ gave you that day?"

"Ah! Blank paper! I used it!" Hearing Song Wuya's question, Master Zhang was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly said with a bitter face.
