A lonely oil lamp burned tenaciously, illuminating the dimly lit dungeon. There was the sound of chains at the door, and it was the jailer picking the lock. Many of the prisoners leaned over the railings to watch in the direction of the cell doors, and the silent cell resounded with the clatter of handcuffs and leg irons.

Torches lit the cell door, and a man in a crimson brocade robe entered. The prisoners' eyes widened, wondering who would be so lucky to leave here today. Maybe it's to restore freedom, maybe it's to turn into a corpse. Either way, you're lucky to get out of here.

The jailer opened the door to one cell, and the prisoners were somewhat disappointed. Because it wasn't the door of his cell that was opened. Torches flickered, and the jailers used sticks to drive away several rats crawling on a man's body, which were gnawing at the man's body.

This is a young man with a very handsome appearance. A broad forehead, a straight nose and fair skin, a pair of eyes that are wide open and unwilling to close, and two lines of bloody tears leave residues on the cheeks. Some of the feminine little mouths had a line of black blood flowing from the side of their mouths, which had solidified and looked like a stain. There are also marks of rat bites on his chin, and he looks very miserable.

Wei Wan covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and the jailers drove away the rats and stood on their sides with their heads bowed.

"When did you find out?"

"I found it in the morning, my lord. When I found it, it was like this, and I said that it was a disease. ”

"Nonsense, what kind of epidemic will bleed, you are a fool to be an official."

The roar of Wei Wan's muscles echoed in the silent dungeon, and the prison of the Imperial Captain's Office was the Hall of Hades. Few of the people who came in made it out alive. But this is the first time that such an unclear person has been hacked without even reporting it to the officials.

"Check, the people on duty last night were all in the hall. This is the Imperial Lieutenant's Office, and the lieutenant is my guard, and whoever kills a mouse here has to agree with me. ”

Wei Juan seemed to be very angry, and the words he said were loud, and he walked out of the cell with a blue face.

A group of five big and three rough men rushed in, and the jailers who usually showed off their might turned into quails, and let these people carry them through the hall. There was not the slightest resistance except the pleading in his mouth.

Liu Qi is in a good mood today. It seems that Liu Rong suddenly opened his mind, and this morning the court will judge the speech of the imperial court. The words he said were quite insightful, and Liu Qi felt that he had mistaken this son before, and it seemed that a good teacher was indeed very important.

"You're here. What's the matter? ”

Liu Qi glanced at Wei Juan, whose head was hanging very low.

"陛xià. You let the matter of the Changle Palace people you checked have a result. ”

"Oh. Who gave those shoes. It's such a big hand, I've never seen such a big ruby, where did I get it? ”

"Hui Majesty xià is a gift from the Marquis of Lintong. The Marquis of Lintong also sent a lot of jewels to Princess Guantao. ”

Wei Wan cherished the words like gold, and did not say a word, but truthfully retold the story.

"Oh, why are the old ladies and pavilions talking about this kid talking about good things, the roots are here. The Yun family is very rich, a boy who is not literate. In just a few years, he became extremely rich. The land of my Han is really a supporter, have you found out where the source of Lintong's wealth comes from? ”

"Back to His Majesty, the Marquis of Lintong's wealth mainly comes from the business jointly operated with the Inner Government."

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Liu Qi had just taken a sip of tea, and was so choked by Wei Juan's words that he couldn't speak. couldn't stop coughing, Qiandu hurriedly came over to rub Liu Qi's back, and it took a while for Liu Qi to calm down.

"That kid is in business with me, what do you say? You make it clear to me. ”

"Your Majesty, the Yun family's paper mill and the sales of the tofu workshop and the wine shop are all in charge of the inner government. At the beginning, the Marquis of Lintong and His Majesty set a three-seven account, and the inner government accounted for seventy percent, and the Yun family accounted for thirty percent. The Yun family is only responsible for delivering the goods to the inner government, and the internal government is responsible for the sale.

The tofu in Chang'an is more expensive than meat, and the steamed wine of the Yun family is a must-have wine for the courtiers to feast guests. Most of the official documents of the imperial court are now written on paper, and each of these items has huge profits. Speaking of which, the income of the inner government is much more than that of the Marquis of Lintong. ”

"Uh......"

Liu Qi was a little angry. I didn't expect that it was myself who caused this rich man, and I made twice as much as others. No wonder Wang Meiren said that every time she talked about the money and food in the inner house, she said that she was very rich, and she wanted to repair the Ganquan Palace for a long time, but she repaired it without a copper coin in Shaofu. It seems that I really can't live a rich life without this kid.

"Well, I got it. Go down. Liu Qi waved his hand helplessly, it's always good to have more money, and for the sake of the money, he spared this kid. It's not a big deal to want to go back to your original fiefdom.

"The minister still has something to report."

"Something else, say."

"When the minister was tracking, he inadvertently found out that Aunt Ying, the female official of Changle Palace, was having an affair with someone."

Liu Qi took the hand of the concerto, and his face immediately became cold.

"What do you say? Can it be verified? ”

"The adulterer is still caught, and he has confessed. It's just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that he died in prison last night, and the cause of death is unknown. The minister is under strict investigation. ”

"Dead, such an important person, you actually let him die. The people you raised in the court are a group of pigs, and the things that mess up the palace are all out of the way. I don't know how many things I don't know, even my court office is mixed with spies. How did you become a lieutenant, I let you go to raise pigs. ”

"The minister is guilty, please send a decree to punish him."

"Alright, don't do it. Let Zhi Du come back, you roll me to the Yun family, and be optimistic about the wizard who will make money. ”

"No"

Wei Juan walked out backwards.

"Qiandu, let's find out who did it. If it is a person from Changle Palace, it will be removed immediately. The Imperial Lieutenant Office does not allow anyone to get involved, and neither can Changle Palace. ”

"No, Aunt Ying is not ......?"

"Don't touch her yet, if there is no real evidence, the old lady will not be able to explain if she asks."

Changle Palace.

"Mother, your little golden worm is really powerful. This winter's is also a shame that Lintong Hou can get this thing, and my daughter is happy when she looks at you. You bless the people, with you helping your eldest brother at the helm, my Han will definitely last forever. ”

"You ate honey this morning, and your mouth is so sweet. It's nice to look at you, what's the good thing? ”

"Mother, my daughter is here to send you a source of wealth."

"What do I want so much money for a blind old lady. I have Zhuangzi, and I also have acres of land, and your eldest brother's inner government also allocates some from time to time. I'm not short of money.

Hey, let's talk about it. Don't you always have enough money? You're only going to spend money and where to make money. Isn't it that you took someone's money to help people? ”

The Queen Mother's face turned cold, and the little golden insect also seemed to feel the chill, lying in the gourd and no longer chirping.

"Queen Mother, you really blamed the eldest princess this time. When she came in just now, the eldest princess told the slave maid. The slave also thought it was good. The Marquis of Lintong invented something called a match, and with this thing there will be no need for flint in the future. As long as you rub a small wooden strip on the phosphorus skin, it is a good thing for the country and the people. ”

"Oh, there's such a thing. Don't bully the old body, you can't see it, and you coax the old body every day. ”

"Mother, look at what you said, how dare I. Daughter, I brought a box today. If you don't believe it, my daughter will show you in front of so many palace people. People around you don't lie. ”

As she spoke, Princess Guantao took out a small brown paper box, took out a small wooden strip, and burned it with a stroke on the phosphosphor skin on the side.

The palace people were shocked when they saw that Princess Guantao actually conjured fire out of thin air. Several little palace maids screamed in horror.

Smelling the smell of sulfur, coupled with the surprised cries of the palace people. The Queen Mother nodded slightly, it is impossible to buy everyone, this thing is indeed true. The most important thing is that she felt the little golden worm in the gourd, and she seemed to be very scared.

It's rare that this spoiled daughter wants to do something, and finding herself is nothing more than finding a backer, so follow her.

Seeing that the Queen Mother's complexion softened a little, Princess Guantao continued: "Mother, the big head will give you forty percent." The daughter and the Yun family each account for 30%, the Yun family is responsible for production, and the daughter is responsible for sales. You sit in the temple of the gods and enjoy your blessings, and the money will fly to your treasury by itself. ”

"The old body can't ask for so much money, give your brother two percent, and leave two achievements for the old body. Pavilion Tao, remember to do things with rain and dew. You can't choose one over the other, you know. ”

"Okay, I know, mother."

Princess Guantao and Aunt Ying looked at each other and smiled, this matter can be regarded as a matter of a while, Princess Guantao will go to the emperor to say something, and it can be put up for sale. In the royal business, whoever dares to repay the debts is simply tired.

Aunt Ying's smile was even more blind, because she got news from Wei Dongbao. One percent of the Yun family's share is for himself, and he will wake up laughing when he thinks about it, and he has also become a shareholder, and he is also a shareholder with the emperor, the queen mother, and the princess. This business is simply a sure win.

Zhi Du looked at the holy decree in his hand, and there was no expression on his stiff face. Wei Juan is not surprised, this guy is what this zombie looks like. If he had an expression, it would be strange.

"Your Majesty has finally reactivated me, and in this Yun family, I almost suffocated me crazy. Now I'll leave it to you, Lintong Hou said that he was going to have a winter vacation. The princes didn't come to school, and now there is nothing to hand over here. ”

"There is nothing to hand over in the Imperial Commander's Office, and Wei Juan didn't even bring out a piece of paper when he walked out of the Imperial Lieutenant's Office. This Qiandu father-in-law can testify, what is the Qiandu father-in-law. ”

Looking at Zhidu's cold gaze, Wei Juan said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Chang'an is now a mud pit, and those who step on it will fall into it. My Wei Juan escaped, as for you, hehe...... (To be continued......)
