Chapter 239: Help
Chu Xinyu was so angry!
No wonder Yuan simply handed over the account book, but she and her second aunt looked at it several times but couldn't see the problem. In the end, they underestimated Yuan's courage and thought she would not fake the account.
Because there is one of the Chu family's ancestral teachings, once the person in power is found to have committed fraud, no matter what the reason, his qualification will be disqualified forever.
Yuan's plan to kill Mei's family was nothing more than to be the mistress of the Chu family, but becoming the mistress did not mean that he would rest assured and act recklessly from now on.
Making false accounts is a deceptive act and one of the most unforgivable regulations.
Once the mistress violates the regulations and is verified by the elders in the clan, she will be deprived of the authority forever.
"When Yuan did this, it might be because she was too confident, or she thought that if she did it cleanly, it would not make people doubt it. In fact, the opposite is true."
Lin Chenyao didn't have to read the other two books, and he knew that they were as clean and tidy as the ones before, and there was no problem with the number. He said: "These account books are fake, and it would be a waste of time if you read them again."
"What should I do?" Chu Xinyu thought for a while and said, "I don't know the affairs of the mansion. If someone asks me to check it now, it will take time, let alone if she dares to do the account, she must have done a remedy."
Lin Chenyao shook his head, he didn't think it was said, "It's not necessarily true that greedy people will not spit out the things they have obtained, or they have spent them all long ago, and there are not much left. How should she remedy them? Yuan was so confident that he thought you could not see any problems in the account, so he would automatically return the account book. Besides, your second aunt is just a temporary housekeeper, and sooner or later she will return the power."
"The Yuan family must not be in charge of the family anymore. Both the second and third aunts choose to stand on my side. If Yuan family takes back the power of the family, they will be embarrassed in the future. Maybe they will even have to split up."
By then, the Yuan family will be the only one in the house. When the brother is found, will he still have his place? Chu Xinyu didn't say this. She asked Ouyang to send someone to secretly find him. Ouyang knew some people from all walks of life, but for so many years, it is estimated that it would be difficult to find him for a while.
But if it is confirmed that Yuan and Aunt Wang conspired to kill Mei and trafficked their brother, then the brother will come back, and I believe that Old Lady Chu and Chu Zheng will feel guilty about him and will definitely compensate him. At least Yuan's son has no chance to inherit the title. If Brother doesn't want it, he would rather give it to the second wife than Chu Zhiyi.
Lin Chenyao thought for a while, then said, "What are you going to do?"
"Of course I'm trying to find a way to make Yuan's slap." Chu Xinyu said firmly: "I can't ignore the fact that she wanted to raise me before, but my biological mother Mei's life, her dowry, and the money she has plundered over the years, must not just forget it."
Lin Chenyao said: "I have a solution, it's worth a try. Do you want to listen?"
When Chu Xinyu heard this, his eyes lit up, "What's the solution?"
"She will definitely not admit that she has made fake accounts, it's better to do this..."
Lin Chenyao signaled Chu Xinyu to get closer, and then said, "Tomorrow, you ask the second wife to call the other couples together, tell everyone that the account book has been verified, and there are some problems in several places. Yuan definitely does not admit it, and may even bite him back and be framed by the second wife. Don't be anxious at this time, the second wife. Old Mrs. Chu must want to reconcile and will ask the second wife what to do."
"Yes, how do you answer the second aunt?" Chu Xinyu heard it very seriously, and his curiosity was aroused.
Lin Chenyao smiled, "At that time, the power of the family was given to the second wife, Yuan must not be willing to accept it. I guess when she faked the accounts for the second wife, she thought of retreat as an advance. If she was not injured, the second wife would not see the problem of the account book. After she was lifted, she could take back the power of the family. But now she is injured, and the second wife will naturally have to manage it for a while. She will not be able to get the power of the family for a while. The ambush she set up before, and she will pull out the previous deficit account, and the second wife will take the blame for her.
Therefore, the second wife must say in front of everyone tomorrow that there is something wrong with the account book, and then give the account book to the most authoritative and tempted elders in the clan to guard it. Yuan's family has been in charge for more than ten years, and there must be many people in the mansion who believe in her. If you want to defeat her at one time, you will ask the second wife to seize this opportunity. She has been sitting in that position for so long. I believe there must be a lot of unknown darkness, and those in charges know some secrets.
As long as the second wife can turn against the officials in the mansion one by one, are you afraid that the problems in the account will not be found? Besides, only those who have ghosts in their hearts will always be thinking about them. Maybe before the second wife finds the problems, Yuan will bring the problems to the door by himself. As long as you do what I said, the problems in the account will pop up."
Chu Xinyu thought about his words again. Yuan's family had been in charge of the mansion for more than ten years. If she wanted to completely defeat her, she could only do it according to Lin Chenyao's method. She was not relieved to let the elders guard the account book. Who could resist the temptation?
Loyalty is just a temptation of chips. If Yuan gives the bargaining chips, wouldn’t it be in vain to like a game?
She told Lin Chenyao about her concerns.
Lin Chenyao thought for a while and said, "Then give me a guard who can't be seduced by anyone."
"Who?"
"Think about it yourself."
After Lin Chenyao finished speaking, he flicked Chu Xinyu's forehead lightly. Chu Xinyu raised his hand to protect him, and at the same time he thought of someone who could make everyone obey and suppress Yuan's family.
After solving the account book, Chu Xinyu was very happy, "Do you a big favor. Next time you need my help, just speak up."
"I really need your help." Lin Chenyao remembered the purpose of coming tonight.
He knew that he was not simply coming to find her. Although Chu Xinyu felt a little disappointed, she quickly covered it up. Yang Xiao asked, "No problem, what's the busy thing?"
"I told you last time that I need the original work of "Mid-Autumn Night", because there is a very important thing to find the answer from the original work, so..."
"Is it a treasure line map?" Chu Xinyu interrupted her and asked.
"You know?"
Lin Chenyao was stunned for a moment. The emperor said that the news was a secret letter from the Liu family, and it was also a secret of the Liu family. Since it was a secret, there was no reason for others to know, otherwise, another treasure hunting storm would be set off in the world.
"In fact, this matter was revealed to the emperor by me and the descendants of the Liu family. They not only revealed the news to the emperor, but also spread the news to the black market."
Since he knew his identity, Chu Xinyu would never hide it from him and confessed: "When "Mid-Autumn Night" fell into the hands of the robbers, if they knew there was a treasure in the painting, they would definitely be greedy. If they wanted to find the painting, as long as they found the map of the treasure, they would definitely go there, and then through the power of the court, they would bring these people to justice. If they seize the treasure from the court, these robbers would undoubtedly be defeated. Besides, I can follow these people and take the opportunity to screen out suspicious people one by one."
After hearing her, Lin Chenyao frowned, "It's very dangerous for you to do this. Those people are all desperate people. If these people discover your identity..."
Chu Xinyu interrupted him with a smile and said, "Of course I can't put all my hopes on this line, so I returned to the Chu family in the capital. Look, haven't you found a lot of clues now? And I also helped the court find treasures, mainly to help you solve the problem."
After speaking, she took out the scroll from the dark cabinet in the study.
At this time, Lin Chenyao had already eaten the midnight snack. Chu Xinyu signaled him to put the pot and bowl aside, then spread the scroll and put it on the table.
Chu Xinyu pointed a few inconspicuous places above. Lin Chenyao found that there were different plants painted in several places, such as Baijuan, Meilan, and Fengmill Fruit. These plants were serially connected. Take the words in front and add them to the Baimeifeng.
"Baimei Peak?" Lin Chenyao saw it and frowned and asked, "Where is this place?"
"In the Yulong River in the northwest," Chu Xinyu said: "I heard that there are clouds and mists all year round, and there are a total of 180 peaks. Each peak penetrates into the clouds and mists. Moreover, the clouds and mists there are different sooner or later. The clouds and mists at night are poisonous, so few people who enter Yulong River can come out alive."
As she said that, she took out a map and pushed it to him, "I have a map here, with the correct route marked on it. If there is no guidance from this map, finding Baimei Peak in Yulongchuan is equivalent to going to die. Take it, don't lose it."
"I'll leave in the next two days." Lin Chenyao put away the map. The national treasury was vacant and was using silver everywhere. This treasure was really a timely help for the court. If it weren't for the urgent situation, he wouldn't have chosen to draw at this time.
"Are you going too?" Chu Xinyu asked.
"I handled this matter and kept it completely confidential to the outside world. If there is no accident, the emperor should have sent me."
Seeing her frowning, Lin Chenyao said, "But don't worry, before this, I will set our wedding date first."
Chu Xinyu's face turned red, "Don't worry about this. The murderer is still at ease with my parents' affairs. If this matter is not clear, I will be uneasy after all."
The person behind Xu Zhilan was not found out. Even if Xu Zhilan was exposed, he could not find the real murderer. It was true that he hated him, but in order to attract a larger crocodile, he could only temporarily watch her with her identity.
"Aren't we checking?" Lin Chenyao comforted her and said, "When I go to Yulongchuan, I believe I will give you an explanation soon. As for our marriage, let it go."
If it is a good auspicious day, it will not be postponed for other things. Since Master Hongyi said that getting married this year will be good for him, don’t push it until after the New Year.
Seeing his confident look, Chu Xinyu felt at ease. When she returned to the Chu family, she was a daughter in the house and had restrictions on her work. If Lin Chenyao had not helped her, she would not have found any reliable news for most of the year. She was about to say something, but a few rooster crows came.
It's so fast!
Lin Chenyao also knew that he was going to leave quickly, so he said to Chu Xinyu: "I'll leave first, see you tomorrow."
Chu Xinyu was stunned. Will he come tomorrow?
Just as he was about to ask him, he had jumped out of the window.
