Chapter 610: Flying Thief?



Yan Shiyue walked quickly towards Su Ji, and suddenly thought of something, and called out: "Tang Xiaoying?"

Tang Xiaoying was indeed there, and she hurried over: "Master."

"Zhou...what's his name? He's the Minister of War. Who is he to Lin Fujian?"

Tang Xiaoying answered immediately: "He is his senior brother."

I see!

So this senior brother was also arranged by Lin Fujian? Normally, if she agreed, she would arrange a dinner. Maybe it was because she didn't agree that this happened?

Meow, but why is this happening? What on earth does he want to do?! Is he stalling for time and not wanting to ask her to go to the Ministry of Revenue? What's the point of this?

Yan Shiyue thought about it and walked in quickly.

Huo Qiyang said: "Sister, I have confirmed that Wen Cheng did it on purpose."

"Well," Yan Shiyue said, "I understand."

...

...

She touched his head: "You guys take a rest first."

Huo Qiyang asked: "Sister, can I help you?"

"I haven't figured it out myself yet!" Yan Shiyue smiled helplessly: "I can only confirm now that someone wants to hold me back, probably because they don't want me to go to the Ministry of Revenue."

Huo Qiyang asked, "What happened in the Ministry of Revenue? Don't you want to let my sister know?"

"What could it be?" Yan Shiyue said casually, "Sinian and the other two are here! I'm not the only one here."

Yan Shitu said: "It's impossible that there is a flying thief who stole the silver from the national treasury..."

Yan Shiyue slowly opened her eyes and looked at him. Yan Shitu was frightened by her and said, "Yuer?"

She pointed at him, motioned for Huo Qiyang to watch, and stood up to leave.

Who knew that at this moment, she actually smelled that strange medicinal smell again.

Yan Shiyue walked out and slowly retreated back. She sniffed around and found a medicine cup. It was indeed the medicine cup! She asked Su Ji, "Master, what is this?"

Su Ji took a look and said, "This is a bone loosening medicine."

She asked, “What is it for?”

Su Ji said: "Someone brought it to me and asked me if it can be used by young pregnant women during childbirth. I plan to change the recipe."

Yan Shiyue asked: "Can the little boy use it?"

Su Ji coughed, and seeing her serious and anxious expression, he said, "Actually, this kind of medicine is used by many people, both internally and externally. Ahem... why are you asking this?"

Everyone knows where the young prostitutes usually use.

As for why the treasury soldiers also need to use this place, there is only one answer: the valley road holds silver.

Yan Shiyue couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring.

She walked out quickly, and after everyone got on the horse, she suddenly stopped.

No, it’s still not right.

Even if they had great courage, they would not dare to steal the treasury silver blatantly, so what's the point of delaying her for a while?

She thought for a moment and called the shadow guard over: "Go quietly to the treasury and see if there is any movement. Be careful and don't let anyone find out."

Then she rode her horse to the palace and asked someone to invite Lin Fujian out.

Lin Fujian followed her instructions and came out, bowing to her: "Prime Minister."

Yan Shiyue took him and sat down in the small hall next door and asked someone to serve tea.

She looked at him seriously, and after a while she said, "Master Lin, I am no longer in the Ministry of Justice, but the hatred we had before cannot be resolved, right?"

Lin Fujian remained calm: "I don't understand what the Prime Minister means."

She continued, "Someone told me that the best defense is offense...Someone else told me that when you are in the court, you have no choice. It's not that I can make peace with the past just because I want to. Even if I don't mean to," she slowly moved closer, "I still have to be on guard against others drawing their swords. Your Excellency, don't you agree?"

Lin Fujian lowered his head and said, "I don't understand what you are saying, my Lord."

Yan Shiyue smiled, and then he really pulled out the knife from his boot, playing with it and said, "I have some basic knowledge of Kung Fu, but Elder Lin, you have a good brain, but I wonder how good are your skills?"

Lin Fujian quickly left his seat and said, "Prime Minister, please calm down! I don't know what I did wrong! Please calm down, Prime Minister!"

"Come back and sit down!" Yan Shiyue hooked her finger at him: "Don't force me to go back and ask for the Imperial Sword!"

Lin Fujian gritted his teeth and walked a little closer. Yan Shiyue said slowly: "Your wife's nephew hit my brother...hit him in places he shouldn't have..."

She clearly saw the realization flash across his face.

Yan Shiyue narrowed her eyes slightly.

The main reason she came here was to let people know she was here so that the shadow guards could investigate and not let them realize that she had already guessed it, so as not to alert the enemy.

She wanted to test Lin Fujian, the old fox, but she was no match for him with conventional means, so she could only scare him first. To scare him, she naturally needed a reason.

But if she was not mistaken, Lin Fujian did not have much hostility towards her.

Maybe he resented her for causing his eldest son to be exiled, and he would definitely take revenge if he had the chance, but he never hated her to the point of losing sleep and eating and losing his mind.

Therefore, if the Ministry of Revenue really had an incident with the treasury silver, what he would do would not be to set up a trap to frame someone, but to... try to cover up what had already happened.

Yan Shiyue gestured calmly toward the window.

After a while, someone came in hurriedly: "Your Highness, Yan Sanlang is awake!"

"Really?" Yan Shiyue walked away, and in the blink of an eye, he could still vaguely hear the man say: "Mr. Su said that it was a false alarm..."

Lin Fujian slowly wiped the cold sweat from his head...

Just now, he really thought that she was going to kill him! How could Cheng'er be so harsh! It was just a show, but they were going to make enemies! Especially from what she said, she wanted to make friends! This time... he really shouldn't have taken action!

Yan Shiyue had already left the palace and went straight home.

The shadow guard came back to report: "Everything is normal near the treasury. We dare not get too close, but it seems that there is no problem."

Yan Shiyue rubbed his forehead.

She discussed with Qu Sinian and the others, "What do you think we should do? Give him bone-loosening medicine. He must be a habitual thief!"

Qu Sinian said: "Everything is speculation. We don't know whether they have done it or to what extent. If the Prime Minister had proposed to check the national treasury when he first arrived, it would be barely reasonable. If he proposed it now, it would be a bit strange."

Gu Hengsha said, "Master, is it possible that they did embezzle some of the treasury silver, but after holding you back today, they returned it?"

You know what, this is really possible!

Yan Shiyue asked, "But how did they know that I was looking for bone-loosening medicine? And how did they know that I had noticed something? I just found out about it myself, okay?"

She felt like she didn’t have enough brains: “Besides, why would I go back?”

Qu Sinian said: "Check who opened the treasury today."

He said to her, "Even if you were fooled by Zhou Zhongying, it would only take half a day, at most a day, so what they are going to do will definitely not take long."

"Wait!" Yan Shiyue said, "I suddenly remembered something!"
