Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 898 Sets for the Jiang family

  Although I don’t know why Sixth Sister asked about this, it is not a secret, and there is nothing to tell.

Liao Chuanrui explained, "If my sister has seen the map of Kang'an, you will know that the one hundred and eight squares of the three cities in Kang'an City are neatly divided by nine vertical streets and twelve horizontal streets. Numbers are used to represent all parts of the city on the document. 'One-three' represents the south of the 12th horizontal street from north to south in Kang'an City; 'eight' represents the eighth vertical street from west to east. The place on the side; the three numbers '138' connected together correspond to Tongji Square, and the last number 'four' represents the northwest area of ​​the four districts in the square. Therefore, '1384' refers to Tongji The place in the northwest district of Fangfang."

I see! Jiang Liu, who had lived in Kang'an City for six years, immediately became enlightened, and she asked again, "Brother-in-law, do other yamen know that Jingzhao House will refer to the neighborhood in this way?"

   Liao Chuanrui said, "Although I didn't stay in the yamen for a long time, I don't think other yamen would care about it even if they knew about it. Because each yamen manages different things, only Jingzhao House needs to govern each square and each city."

"That's true." Jiang Liu nodded, the Jingzhao Mansion used this for convenience, and other yamen would not frequently mention the various places in their official documents, so there was no need to do so, "Brother-in-law, see, 1384 If there is a representative in other yamen, what might it mean?"

Liao Chuanrui pondered, "In the Hanlin Academy, it may be the number of the book, in the Ministry of War it may be the number of the forbidden army, in the Ministry of Rites it may be the number of the sacrificial vessel, in the Ministry of Punishment it may be the number of the file, I will go to each yamen to find out and answer you. "

   Jiang Liu warned very cautiously, "Brother-in-law, don't tell anyone about the number I asked you about, let alone inquire about the northwest district of Tongjifang. This is of great importance, and we must be careful to avoid leaking information."

   Jiang Liu said that it was important, so Liao Chuanrui didn't ask any more questions, but only reminded, "Sixth sister has spies from various prefectures around her, so you must be very careful."

   By the time Jiang Liu returned to the mansion, it was already dark. After dinner, Ya Zheng, who was pregnant, went to rest first. Jiang Muyan coaxed her brother to sleep, and returned to the room to see her sister lying on the bed. She seemed to have a lot of thoughts, so she asked, "Which shop is not doing well? "

   "It's all good." Jiang Liu rolled over and stretched, "Is the house okay today?"

   "Yes. Mrs. Li from the Minister of War is here, and her grandmother, aunt and mother played leaf cards for half a day with her." Jiang Muyan yawned, "Go to bed earlier."

   "Okay." Jiang Liu rolled around and got into the quilt, and Jiang Muyan also lay on the bed. Shuying stepped forward and lowered the curtain of the bed, blowing out the candles in the room, and the room immediately went dark.

  Jiang Liu lay beside his sister and continued to think about the four numbers one three eight four with his eyes open.

   Even if Jiang Liu didn't know the rules of the Ministry of Punishment for managing files, she was sure that the four numbers on the account book were not the file numbers. Because only one of the six account books has this number on it, and even if the evidence does have a serial number, it should be written in red on the cover page of the account book, not in the account book.

   Therefore, the possibility that these four numbers represent the northwest area of ​​Tongjifang is extremely high.

   The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Liu felt that the Meng family—or to be more precise, Meng Huizhou—left these four words on the account book to set up a trap for the Jiang family.

  Jiang Liu opened his eyes and looked at the dark curtain, recalling scenes from the past. Meng Huizhou buried the memorial and six account books beside the Jiang family wall, perhaps because he wanted the Jiang family to discover the account books. Because the Meng family knew the Jiang family too well, when the Meng family building was about to collapse, they had already guessed the ending of the Meng family, and guessed that the Meng family would fall into the hands of the Jiang family.

  If the Meng house falls into the hands of the Jiang family, the Jiang family will definitely open the corner door in the garden so that the two houses are connected. It is not difficult to guess where the corner door will be opened. Because it all follows the principles of feng shui, Meng Huizhou buried the box where the corner door was most likely to open, just to let the Jiang family discover the account books and memorials.

  These account books and memorials can prove that the Suzhou case is true, and it can also prove that the food that disappeared in Zhongmou is the most important thing. If the Jiang family presented these account books to the imperial front, they would directly meet Qin Tianye, which was in Meng Huizhou's favor - allowing Qin Tianye to destroy the Jiang family.

  Meng Huizhou also considered that the Jiang family did not dare to present the account book, so he left these four numbers in an inconspicuous place on the account book.

Others may not understand the meaning of this number, but... Jiang Liu turned over and looked at the wall in front of him, accustomed to the dark eyes, he could already distinguish the familiar patterns on the curtain, but her father would definitely be able to see it at a glance , because her father was working in Jingzhao Mansion!

   If Dad recognized that these four numbers represent the Northwest District of Tongjifang, what would he do?

   He will definitely send someone to investigate! and then?

   Jiang Liu pursed his lips. Although he still couldn't figure out the reason, Jiang Liu felt that the northwest area of ​​Tongjifang might be Qin Tianye's inverse scale. If his father went to investigate, he would definitely anger Qin Tianye.

   Meng Huizhou hated the Jiang family without a doubt. Before he died on the execution ground, he wanted her father to seek revenge from Qin Tianye. He set up a foreshadowing to bury the ledger and memorial, and he must also want the Jiang family to be saved.

  Is there something or someone in the northwest area of ​​Tongjifang that can drag the Jiang family into the abyss?

   "Liu'er." Jiang Muyan turned over to face her sister and asked in a low voice, "Can't sleep? If you have something in your heart that you can tell me, don't hold back."

   Jiang Liu couldn't tell his sister about this, let alone anyone in the family. She turned to face her sister and said in a low voice, "I wanted to talk to my sister tomorrow, I want to use the money I earn from selling incense to form a caravan to the west, selling silk, cloth, porcelain, etc. The team will send things to Suzhou for daddy and brother. This is not conspicuous and cost-effective, what do you think, sister?"

  My father was always particular about the cost of food and clothing. It was difficult for him to be satisfied with the things in Suzhou. It was indeed a good idea to send him some food and clothing items from time to time. Jiang Muyan nodded, "Okay, the caravan doesn't need to have too many chariots and horses, as long as the journey is safe."

   After discussing for a while, Jiang Liu, who was growing up, couldn't hold back and fell asleep. Jiang Muyan covered her sister with the quilt before laying down and sleeping peacefully.

In the early morning of the second day, Jiang Liu brought Yanping over and ordered, "Let Chen Qingxia send someone to investigate the northwest area of ​​Tongjifang and draw a detailed map of the northwest area: how many families live there, and what kind of people are there? Check it out, and what major incidents have happened there in the past ten years will also be investigated together."

"Don't be in a hurry. It takes two months if you can't investigate in a month, and four months if you can't do it in two months." Jiang Liu warned again, "This matter is very important, it must be carried out in secret, and the Qin Mansion and other places must not be allowed to do so. The spies noticed, or we'd get burned."

   Six girls didn't say why they wanted to check Tongjifang, and Yanping didn't talk too much, remembering that, he withdrew.

   Thank you book friend Shenlan for your reward, and thank you for your subscription support. The wind is blowing today, and spring is coming back.
