Chapter 676 Revealed

"Xingran, you said to help me get money, but it's tens of millions of taels of silver, where can I get it. Kaifeng is also a poor place, I know what you mean, the governor of Kaifeng is a corrupt official, but he is corrupt at best. There are more than one million taels, but what I lack is tens of millions of taels."

The little money in the treasury was obtained by Li Tianxing by selling his officials.

Xingran said: "No matter what, let's investigate his crimes first. This is a sum of money, and it is enough to relieve the urgent need. After his money is paid, the rest of the money will be easy to deal with."

"You really have a way?"

"Trust me." Xing Ran opened the map in his palm: "Look, the farmers are all driven out of the city now, so most of the people in the city are businessmen, at least they don't have to worry about money. I didn't think a How much money can be blown out of Xu Qingnian's body, but if each of the 30 people in Kaifeng Mansion can hand over 100 taels of silver, isn't your money enough?"

Li Tianxing was speechless: "Aren't you being robbed by someone? How could everyone pay for it?"

Xingran pointed to those fields: "Since the people's fields have been paid back, where will the money for taxes come from? It must be the Kaifeng government, and they will get ideas from these people who are not short of money. No one pays 100 to [-] taels Yinzi, put up a notice, saying that the government is soliciting donations, this matter made Xu Qingnian come forward, he offended people, what are we afraid of."

Speaking of it now, Li Tianxing came to his senses: "I know, Xu Qingnian will definitely not agree, otherwise he would be too offending as an official. But if we find out the evidence about his corruption of ink first, it will be the crime of beheading." , when the time comes, let him do whatever he wants.”

"My lord, you have become wiser."

……

Xu Qingnian was still making tea leisurely: "Our emperor was born as a gangster in the past, and he doesn't have much knowledge in his stomach. If he wants to bring me down, he has to learn."

The master gave a thumbs up: "My lord is wise, but the emperor has been refusing to leave. In case someone who doesn't open his eyes says something, we will be passive. In the opinion of the villain, letting the emperor go as soon as possible is the best policy." .”

"You think I don't want to? If the emperor doesn't leave, what can I do?"

Someone came to report outside the door: "My lord, the emperor invites you to go to the lake to enjoy the moon."

"Now?" Xu Qingnian was dumb: "It's not a festival, why did the emperor suddenly let me go to the lake to enjoy the moon, and let me go alone?"

"No, let everyone in the mansion go, the emperor said, this is the fun of the monarch and his ministers."

Xu Qingnian's worry came: "What a monarch and his ministers are having fun together, I don't think they can enjoy it. Master, have you moved all the things in the storeroom?"

"Master Hui, they have all moved away. The villain has already ordered someone to carry the box to your hometown in Jinan, without anyone noticing."

Xu Qingnian nodded: "Okay, you handle this matter yourself, and the things will definitely be delivered. I always feel that the emperor is a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking, so don't make any trouble."

"Don't worry, Lord, nothing will happen."

"I can't lose a son and lose money."

Except for the master and a few money carriers, so many people from all over the house came to the lake, and there were several boats that were chartered by Li Tianxing, waiting for them to arrive.

"Your Majesty, how capable are you, dare to ask Your Majesty to surrender."

Li Tianxing supported him: "Be careful, this boat is not stable. I also had a sudden whim, which disturbed your sweet dreams. Haven't you eaten dinner yet?"

"Your Majesty is worried about it, it has already been used."

Li Tianxing rushed to the cabin to greet: "Serve wine and food, don't upset the people in the other boats."

Xu Qingnian looked around, but couldn't find Xingran.

"What? Do you have something to do?" Li Tianxing blocked his mouth first: "I thought there were many people in your house, why didn't you see your master, I told them all to come."

Xu Qingnian bowed his head: "Your Majesty, what is the identity of Master, and how does he deserve to be with His Majesty?"

"Then...forget it, come, come, let's have a drink."

Xing Ran was on the other side, wearing a night clothes, to track down the embezzled Ku Yin.She went to the warehouse, where the lock was still locked, but after a lot of effort to open the door, it was empty.There are footprints on the ground, and people who have just walked not far away should be able to catch up.

Outside Kaifeng City, three miles away, several horse-drawn carriages were chasing after him, and the master personally escorted him: "Hurry up, you guys! You haven't eaten! You have delayed the master's important business, be careful of your lives!"

This is a lot of money. There are four boxes in a car, and it is difficult for a horse to carry it.

The subordinates were wronged: "Master, what do you think this is? This is silver, not cotton. It is very heavy. Why don't you come to buy it?"

"Stop talking nonsense, be careful that I will beat you up. When you get to the place, the master will reward you with 100 taels of silver each. Cheer up!"

Xingran Qinggong has already caught up: "No one can leave!"

Master reined in the reins: "Who is coming?!"

"Your aunt." Xing Ran pointed his sword at the crowd: "Turn the horses and chariots around and follow me to Kaifeng. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy."

The master thought for a while: "Brothers, this is to rob the official money, take it for me!"

Whoosh - Xing Ran pierced his throat with a sword, and the master died on the spot.

"Take the silver back to the warehouse for me, do you hear me clearly?!"

Here, on the lake, Li Tianxing kept the boat sailing along the shore of the lake, serving him with good wine and good food, seeing that Xu Qingnian was not in the mood to eat and was out of his mind.

"Master Xu, you seem to have something on your mind?"

Xu Qingnian smiled wryly: "No, the emperor is worrying too much, I just don't like the bumps on the boat, I'm just a little seasick."

Li Tianxing looked at the sky and continued to drink, just waiting for a pigeon to fly from the sky. He untied the creed on the pigeon's leg and knew that Xing Ran had already succeeded.

Xu Qingnian's complexion was getting worse and worse, he had a bad feeling.

"Prefect Xu, I remember you said that you want to show me your warehouse, right?"

"Yes, the emperor has a good memory."

Li Tianxing hummed: "Well, anyway, you're seasick too, and I'm not in the mood to be here anymore, why don't you go to the warehouse to see, I want to know how difficult it is for you to be an upright official."

Xu Qingnian stood up immediately: "Your Majesty! It's getting late now, let's go tomorrow."

"I don't think it's too late, why do you think it's too late? Or, there is still money in the warehouse that hasn't been shipped out?"

"I... don't know what the emperor's words mean."

"You'll know, let's sail."

It was past midnight and it was early morning.

Li Tianxing took the lead, and a group of people went to the warehouse of the government office. The lock was unlocked, as if no one had been there.

"Master Xu, I will ask you for the last time, are you an upright official?"

Xu Qingnian had no way out. He knew that the emperor was very confident in doing this, but he had told the emperor about his incorruptibility before, so he would not say that he was a corrupt official: "I have a clear conscience."

"Okay, come on, open the warehouse."

Creaking—the door opened, and so many chests appeared, and two more chests were open, and the silver was shining, and the torches shone through it, and the color was very attractive.
