Chapter 41 Who sent Zhang Yougen's family?

Zhen Guogong, the prime minister and Guo Zijian sacrificed wine, and the faces of the three were ashen.

After the Tai Tuo and the emperor settled their rankings in the imperial study, night fell again.

The emperor also kept the Taifu in the palace for dinner.

The dinner this time was richer than the noon meal, and the aroma wafted farther.

The emperor and the Tai Tuo chatted while eating in the imperial study, and the smell of their meals floated outside along the doors and windows.

The prime minister and the others hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and they were already hungry.

The three of them listened to the drum-like sound coming from the stomachs of the other two, and smelled the fragrance coming out of the window, their faces turned pale.

On the other side, after the Taifu finished his meal, he came out of the imperial study.

As soon as the Taifu came out, the eyes of the three prime ministers fell on him.

The Taifu met the gazes of the three of them without squinting his eyes, and under the leadership of the eunuch, he went straight out of the palace.

Lord Zhen snorted coldly, it seemed that the emperor was determined to make Jiang Zhao the number one scholar.

He turned around and left the palace, walking faster than the Taifu, but after a while, he was ahead of the Taifu.

The prime minister and the Guozijian Jijiu looked at each other, and they also understood the emperor's determination that it was meaningless to stay here any longer, so they also left the palace.

The Tai Tuo shook his head and smiled as he watched the three of them rushing ahead of him to leave the palace one after another.

At this time, Jiang Zhao's side.

Tomorrow is the day when the palace examination will be announced.

But Jiang Zhao and Simu Bai ate and drank, and now the two of them are equivalent to the end of the college entrance examination, and now they are carnival and indulgent.

But the two of them are not indulgent, at most, Jiang Zhao sleeps until noon every day before waking up.

After noon, some classmates and friends came to the house to talk to the two of them about poetry and papers.

Jiang Zhao was also very annoyed by this, so he dragged Si Mubai out, talking with those scholars all day was really boring.

But after going out, Jiang Zhao didn't know where to go.

Si Mubai then suggested: "Why don't we go and see how Brother Dagen and the others are doing."

Jiang Zhao's eyes lit up. It was a good idea. It had been a long time since they moved out from Brother Dagen's house, and they hadn't gone back to see them. Now that the palace examination was over, it was time to go back and have a look.

Call Wei Xiang and Jiu Qi, and the four of them come to Zhang Yougen's house outside the city.

Jiang Zhao patted the dilapidated wooden door and shouted, "Brother Dagen, sister-in-law, we are here to see you, uncle and aunt, are you at home?"

But after calling the door for a long time, no one responded.

"Could it be that he went out to farm?" Jiang Zhao muttered to himself.

A group of people went to the field to look for Zhang Yougen's family, but they did not see Zhang Yougen's family in either their own field or the field they rented.

Jiang Zhao and the others thought that Zhang Yougen's family had other business, so they left temporarily.

So he planned to put the things he bought for Zhang Yougen's family with Si Mubai in his yard and leave.

Coming to Zhang Yougen's house again, Jiang Zhao saw a neighbor passing by, and asked, "Brother, please ask."

"Brother, please ask, do you know where the family living here has gone?"

The neighbor glanced at Jiang Zhao and the others, and found that they were all wearing long gowns that could be worn by scholars.

There is only one master in their village who has a little education, and everyone in the village respects him very much, including the village chief, who also respects him very much.

So the neighbor clasped his fists and didn't know how to salute. He just bent down and said, "Are the adults looking for this family?"

"The family moved away suddenly half a month ago and never came back."

Jiang Zhao frowned and looked at Si Mubai. They moved out half a month ago. Wasn't that when they left?

Jiang Zhao smiled and said, "Thank you, big brother."

The neighbor bowed his hand and left to do his own business.

Then Jiang Zhao asked Wei Xiang to pry open the door lock of Zhang Yougen's house, wanting to find out.

A few of them went in, and all the things in the room were still there, and they were all covered with a layer of dust. It seemed that they had left for a long time.

Jiang Zhao came to the room where he lived before, and found that the room was turned into a mess.

Both the pillow and the quilt were lifted, and the money she placed under the pillow that day was still there.

She was rummaging around in the house, Si Mubai walked over and asked: "What are you looking for, Brother Wei, let's help you find it together."

"I'm looking for the blueprint of the waterwheel I drew that day." Jiang Zhao said while searching.

Si Mubai was taken aback: "Didn't you take away the blueprint from that day?"

"I put the drawings in the package the night before I left, but when I got home the next day to pack them, I found that the drawings were gone."

"I thought it was because I forgot to put it in the package, or accidentally dropped it, but now it seems that it is not as simple as I thought."

Jiang Zhao had stopped searching, and there was no point in searching any further.

"Brother Xian thinks... Brother Dagen's family took it away?"

Seeing Jiang Zhao's expression, Si Mubai guessed.

"Where did Brother Dagen's family go? The elder brother just said that Brother Dagen's family left half a month ago. It was almost when we left that they left too. Why did Brother Dagen and the others leave?"

The ancients had nothing to do, and generally would not leave their place of residence.

And Zhang Yougen's family is all farmers, so it is unlikely that they will leave their residence.

"I think we will soon know who the person who targeted us before the palace examination is." Jiang Zhao said.

"Do you think the Dagenge family was sent against our people?"

Si Mubai asked.

Jiang Zhao nodded: "I'm afraid it is very likely."

"Why do you say that, brother?"

They lived in Sanniang's house that day, Sanniang's family was so kind, and they didn't have enough food, so they saved food and ate closely with them.

If it was said that Sanniang's family was sent by others, he would not believe it.

Jiang Zhao didn't want to believe it either, but the facts were in front of him.

"I secretly left the money to Sanniang's family that day, but they didn't take it away. Even if Sanniang's family is honest and unwilling to use our money, they should keep it properly and return it when we come next time. us, but the silver is still there."

"Either Sanniang's family was taken away by someone who disdains this little money, or Sanniang's family was sent here against us and disdains this little money."

"But when we were leaving, Sanniang came in to pack my package, and she kicked me out while packing."

Thinking about it now, Sanniang's various actions that day were full of doubts.

"But how did Sanniang know the blueprint of the waterwheel? Maybe Sanniang's family was taken away by someone who targeted us behind the scenes."

Si Mubai still didn't believe that Sanniang's family was sent by someone targeting them.

"If someone takes them away, it will definitely attract the attention of the neighbors around."

"But maybe Brother Yu is thinking too much. Anyway, we have to confirm where Sanniang's family has gone."

If Sanniang's family was really taken away, they must have been implicated by them, and they must rescue Sanniang's family.

But Sanniang's family is really what she imagined, so they will soon know who is behind them.
