Chapter 248
Zhang Zhang, who was lying on the ground like a dead fish, heard the confessions of Mo Liang, Wu Qian and others, and realized that he had been deceived by Yu Zheng.
But now that it's over, it doesn't matter anymore.
After interrogating Mo Liang and others, Yu Zheng returned to the main hospital.
Zhufeng escorted Mo Liang and found the account books he had hidden.
"Master." Zhufeng handed the account book to Yu Zheng.
After looking through it, Yu Zheng put it together with other evidence and asked Zhufeng to hand over both people and evidence to Sun Hechuan and handle them according to law.
When night fell, Zhufeng covered Zhang Li with a sack and returned him to his master according to Yu Zheng's instructions.
The servants of the Cao family heard a knock on the door and opened the door. They saw a sack at the door and were alert.
"What is it?" The servant kicked it with his foot.
The sack moved, and a faint voice came from inside: "It's me, Zhang Li."
Upon hearing this, the servant first checked around and made sure that no one was there before carrying Zhang Li through the door.
Cao Qian heard the report and rushed over immediately.
Zhang Li has been frozen, and he is so weak that he only has half his life left.
After learning that Zhang Li was exposed and confessed to Yu Zheng, Cao Qian was furious.
"Something that fails to succeed but fails to accomplish."
"Sir, I didn't mean it. I beg you for mercy. I will die for you in the future..." Zhang Li hugged Cao Qian's feet and begged for mercy in a panic.
Cao Qian snorted coldly and kicked Zhang Zhang hard in the chest.
Zhang Li was already weak and only had half his life left, so he fainted immediately after this kick.
The servant stepped forward to explore, but his breath was weak and almost non-existent.
Cao Qian said: "Throw him into a mass grave, be careful not to let anyone see him."
"Yes." The servant neatly put the fainted Zhang Zhang into a sack, tied it tightly and carried it away.
Zhufeng, who was hiding in the dark, quietly followed the servants of the Cao family all the way to the mass grave.
After the servants of the Cao family threw away the sacks and left, Zhufeng appeared quietly, opened the sacks and checked to make sure Zhang Li was still alive, and resisted him and left.
When the night was dark, Zhufeng returned to the palace to return his orders to Yu Zheng.
"As the master expected, the Cao family abandoned Li Li, and his subordinates have placed him properly."
"Watch him carefully, there is still use in keeping him." After Yu Zheng said that, he turned and entered the inner room.
After Jiang Shufang smoked her black hair, Chu Yu packed up the smoke basket and exited the room, closing the door.
Jiang Shu sat in front of the dressing table, combing her hair with a jade comb.
Seeing Yu Zheng come in, Jiang Shu asked softly: "Has everything been taken care of?"
Yu Zheng nodded, Juan's face became serious.
Jiang Shu sighed softly: "I didn't expect that this matter was actually a conspiracy of the Cao family. Fortunately, it was discovered in time. Otherwise, if it continued to develop, the Cao family would use this as a reason to launch an attack. I'm afraid it would be difficult to end."
Yu Zheng sat down on the soft couch and said: "This matter has a great impact on the mansion. Without the steward, there will definitely be trouble. We need to hurry up."
Jiang Shu nodded: "Tomorrow I will gather the servants in the mansion and select capable people to serve as new managers."
"Okay, I'll leave it all to you." Yu Zheng trusted Jiang Shu very much and believed she could handle it well.
After a busy day, Yu Zheng was a little tired.
Jiang Shu put down the jade comb, stood up and went over to massage Yu Zheng's head.
"Actually, most of the managers were honest when they first entered the house. It's just that there was no one in the house to supervise them, their greed gradually became apparent, and some people deliberately encouraged them, so they made big mistakes."
What's more, people like Liu Guanshi are completely forced to join in the conspiracy.
Yu Zheng pursed his lips and said, "It's because I didn't choose people well and used them poorly."
He focused all his attention on government affairs and paid little attention to the mansion, which almost caused disaster.
Although the loss was stopped in time, Yu Zheng still blamed him in his heart.
"No matter how powerful a person is, it is impossible for him to fail in everything. You are not wrong." Jiang Shu comforted him warmly.
Loyalty requires time to be cultivated and tempered, and people's hearts are fickle, and it is difficult to maintain loyalty by being indulgent and careless.
Yu Zheng grabbed Jiang Shu's hand, pulled her into his arms, and buried his head in her neck.
Jiang Shu gently stroked Yu Zheng's back and said nothing.
The next day, Jiang Shu asked Zhuo Teng to summon the servants of the mansion to select a new steward.
Adopting two methods: self-recommendation and recommendation, Jiang Shu asked several questions to assess and selected several capable people to serve as new managers.
The population of the palace was simple and the affairs were not complicated, so Jiang Shu reduced the number by half and only selected ten people.
Zhuo Teng was originally a clerk in the accounting department. He thought Jiang Shu would directly promote him to the position of accounting clerk, but unexpectedly Jiang Shu asked him.
"Do you dare to serve as a steward in the mansion?"
