Originally, he had already used some of those bank notes, and it was really hard for him to make up enough these few days. [`Reading novels`] Shu Shu

Li Yuan also glanced at it, seemingly dissatisfied. "only these?"

"Ah, no, there are more, and more..." Wei Wenzhong took out another 10 taels of silver note from his sleeve and handed it to him. Now he is even more sure that the relationship between the silent master and the imperial envoy is extraordinary. .

Li Yuan also tapped the bank note in his hand, then handed it to Xiao Mingle.She took his bank note without even thinking about it, and put it into her sleeve as a matter of course.

Bai Yuexi looked at her actions in surprise, and couldn't believe her eyes. "Soundless, you..."

Li Yuan also gave the banknote to Xiao Mingle, and reached out to Wei Wenzhong again, Wei Wenzhong was dumbfounded this time. "grown ups……"

"The ones belonged to Mr. Wuyin just now, what about your own?" Li Yuanyi frowned, looked at him and asked.

"Here, I didn't bring so much..." Wei Wenzhong panicked on his face, but secretly scolded Li Yuanyi for nothing, and he was so greedy for money even though he ran a bank.

"Lord prefect, are you scolding the imperial envoy right now? You must think that he owns a bank and is so greedy for money. He is really devoid of conscience to bully you, a prefect who is much poorer than him. ah……"

Xiao Mingle said Wei Wenzhong's heart with a slight smile. When she said the last two sentences, she looked at Li Yuanyi, and what she said had a deep meaning.

Li Yuanyi glared at him fiercely, but she coldly avoided his gaze, pretending not to see him.

"There is absolutely no such thing, Mr. Wuyin, you can't talk nonsense, it will make the imperial envoy misunderstand. Those of us who are subordinates should respect the empress and the imperial envoy!" Wei Wenzhong explained insincerely, he felt that this innocent Master Yin just wanted to kill him.

"What's the matter with the queen, what he did, the queen doesn't know! Who doesn't know, the queen has been missing for more than a year, don't blame her for any bad things!" Xiao Mingle lost his temper, these people were simply inexplicable .

"Master Zhifu!" Li Yuanyi looked at Wei Wenzhong again, he was already sweating from fright. "Master Imperial Envoy, my officer, my officer will immediately send someone back to collect the money!"

"How much is the magistrate planning to bribe me?" Li Yuanyi raised his head arrogantly, as if he was simply not paying back the money owed to him.

"Two, 20 taels!" Wei Wenzhong gritted his teeth, ruthlessly, and finally stretched out two fingers.

Li Yuan also nodded. "Very good, the magistrate is really generous!"

"It should be, it should be..."

Li Yuanyi's face darkened, and he patted the table down. "Come on!"

"Your subordinates are here!" Qu Ziyan came in with a large number of armored soldiers and surrounded them.

"The local officials in Yuchuan corrupted the law, oppressed the people, and intended to bribe the officials. Immediately take them down, put them in prison, and wait to be punished!!"

"Master Imperial Envoy..." The officials fell to their knees with a 'plop' in fright, and some of them were so frightened that they didn't know what happened for a while.

Wei Wenzhong stared at him with his mouth wide open, and slowly knelt down on the ground. "Master Imperial Envoy, please forgive me..."

"My lord, please forgive me..."

"Hmph, as the parents and officials of the people, you only care about taking money and breaking the law, only caring about your own enjoyment, and completely disregarding the life and death of the people. You set up various names and collect heavy taxes from the people, making the people's lives miserable. If the people are wronged, you beat them into tricks and settle things hastily. How many undead have died under your hands, you can count with your ten fingers, and you dare to ask me to spare your life!!"

"Come on, drag me out!!"

"Yes, my lord!"

All the big and small officials in the hall were dragged out, and finally only Bai Yuexi was left.He stood there stupidly, Li Yuan also turned to look at him.

"Master Imperial Envoy!" Bai Yuexi took a step forward and cupped his hands. "Master Imperial Envoy, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. It seems that there is something wrong with the Imperial Envoy!"

"My lord!" Xiao Mingle hurried over and shook his head slightly at Bai Yuexi, preventing him from pouring cold water on Li Yuanyi at this time.

Li Yuanyi did such a gratifying thing, Xiao Mingle was excited, and she knew that he must also feel very proud in his heart, if Bai Yuexi poured cold water on him at this time, he would definitely have no good fruit in the end.

"What would Mr. Bai want to say to me?" Li Yuanyi pulled Xiao Mingle away with a sullen face, and stared directly at Bai Yuexi with a pair of sharp eyes.

"Master Imperial Envoy..." Bai Yuexi ignored Xiao Mingle's obstruction, and only wanted to speak his mind. "The imperial envoy's actions just now seem to be inappropriate."

"The lower officials can see your determination to punish the corrupt officials. It's just that the imperial envoy took the initiative to extort bribes from the officials below and framed them deliberately. What is the difference between torture and torture?!"

"Many of them have to raise money to bribe you because of your majesty. It doesn't mean that they are always like this. How can you not be self-willed and careless about human lives!!"

"Presumptuous!! How dare you talk to me like that!!" Li Yuanyi pointed at him angrily, then snorted coldly, and sat down with his sleeves flung. "Superficial! If they didn't usually accept Lue Lu, where did they get the money to bribe me?!"

"Maybe they went bankrupt and sold their fortunes. How would you know if you don't check!" Bai Yuexi was not convinced.

"Then why didn't you bribe me?!" Li Yuanyi asked back.

"I, Xiaguan...don't bother to do such a thing!"

"If there are really honest officials among them, why don't they be as disdainful as you, and instead rush to bribe the officials?!"

Bai Yuexi stopped talking, but insisted on her own thinking, thinking that Li Yuanyi did something wrong.

Xiao Mingle watched the two of them not speak, she knew that what she said was useless, these two men were awkward, but they were actually very stubborn.

Li Yuanyi has always been eloquent and eloquent, of course Bai Yuexi is no match for him.

"Bai Yuexi, as an official of the people's parents, you don't know how to understand the feelings of the people and ask for orders for the people. You stay in the county government all day long and talk about wars in front of books and papers. Service, until the sun is rising, you must not go back to the house to rest!!"

Bai Yuexi was not convinced, but she couldn't do anything to the imperial envoy. "yes!"

"grown ups……"

"you shut up!!"

As soon as Xiao Mingle opened her mouth, Li Yuanyi told her to shut up, not allowing her to intercede with Bai Yuexi.

There were only the two of them left in the hall, Xiao Mingle took out the 20 taels of silver note from his sleeve, and stuffed it into Li Yuanyi's hand.

"What do you mean?" Li Yuanyi looked at the bank note in his hand, and looked up at her with anger in his expression.
