Chapter 55
Cao Shaoqin personally brought the tea to the freshly baked God of Wealth.

An Shigeng was missing, and a Jinyiwei Qianhu appeared unexpectedly. Alas, the money came so easily that I didn't know how to spend it.

But before entering the door, I heard the sound of the teacup falling to the ground.

Throwing a cup for a number?

I don't remember uncle mentioned this?
Cao Shaoqin, who thought he got the message, immediately dropped the tray in his hand, drew out his sword and rushed in.

"Presumptuous! Uncle, what's the matter?"

He kicked open the door, and saw Cao Zhengchun and Chen Jiu looked at him.

Cao Zhengchun still had a murderous look in his eyes.

"Why are you drawing your sword? Where is the tea I asked you to make?"

"Huh? Where's my tea?"

Cao Shaoqin quickly put his sword back into its sheath, and was glared at by Cao Zhengchun.

"You stand guard at the door first, Mr. Chen, you continue to talk."

Chen Jiu smiled as he watched Cao Shaoqin go to be the doorman, took out the toothpick that the master of the Yuan Dynasty carried with him, and continued to speak.

"This is the belongings of Wang Gonggong's bearer. The lower official came along secretly. I'm afraid the eunuch doesn't know that there are people from Yuan Dynasty hidden in the palace."

Cao Zhengchun took the toothpick and glanced at it, his face darkened instantly.

He knew this thing, it was indeed a daily necessities of Dayuan people.

"What evidence is there?"

"Other evidence, I really don't have any other evidence, otherwise I wouldn't have come to find you, father-in-law."

Chen Jiu licked his lips and found that he was thirsty. He was not polite to Cao Zhengchun, he directly lifted the teapot to his mouth, took a few mouthfuls, and then put down the teapot under Cao Zhengchun's disgusted eyes.

"If this doesn't make the father-in-law make up his mind, then the next official might as well reveal something more. The father-in-law did not receive less filial piety from the God of Wealth Mansion before."

Cao Zhengchun didn't change his face, he didn't feel ashamed.

"Our family did collect a lot of money from An's family, but it has nothing to do with the prince's conspiracy."

"That's the problem."

Chen Jiu straightened his expression.

"Last night, Jin Yiwei copied an account book in Anfu, which recorded the money collected by the various ministers in the court, the exact date and time of collection, but there are a few ministers who have no records in the account book. Among them are Wang Gonggong."

"What does this explain, and if Mr. Chen reveals this matter, won't we be afraid that our family will go to the Holy Master to read a copy of it for you?"

Cao Zhengchun didn't understand what he wanted to say.

Is it still a crime not to collect money?
"Eunuch, don't worry, listen to me slowly."

Chen Jiu also knew that this really didn't explain anything, but he directly said that the prince had treasonous intentions before, just to make Cao Zhengchun analyze what he said with colored glasses.

"Wang Gonggong secretly hid the Yuan people in the palace. This is one of the problems. The second problem is why he confiscated the An family's money. Is he not qualified? Or is he cleansing himself? Eunuch, do you think he is hiding a big Yuan?" It’s possible for a master to clean himself up while keeping himself clean.”

Cao Zhengchun was silent for a while, and after bringing him in, he shook his head resolutely.

"There is absolutely no such possibility. The Royal Horse Supervisor, the Ministry of War and the governor share military handles. They are actually the inner court shufu. They don't charge money. Hmph, the reason why they don't charge money is for something more important than money!"

Ding hook.

Chen Jiu applauded him and praised his witty little brain.

"Cao Gonggong whipped into the house, and the lower officials admired it. Jin Yiwei has been watching King Ning's movements for the past few years, and found that he has been ambiguous with the Yuan Dynasty. When I arrested An Shigeng, I found that he also has the skills of the master Ning Wangzuo, if the subordinate guessed correctly, the An family did not send money to the prince, just to avoid suspicion."

"It's a good one to avoid suspicion."

Cao Zhengchun has confirmed Chen Jiu's thoughts at this moment.

The boss of the Yumajian wants to do something.

Damn, dare to touch the lifeblood of our family?
That's right, Zhengde is the lifeblood of Cao Zhengchun.

Cao Zhengchun wished he could go to the palace right now and tear up that dead eunuch Wang Gonggong into thousands of pieces.

Slightly restraining his killing intent, he looked at Chen Jiu.

"Master Chen, who else have you mentioned this to?"

"Eunuch, I don't have any proof, so I dare not spread it everywhere. Master Qinglong didn't even tell me about it. I only told you, Eunuch, that I was asking for your help. In fact, I brought some soil for the sake of the Holy One and Daming. Special products come here as a stepping stone."

Chen Jiu had a cute expression on his face, and his eyes looked at the two sacks on the ground from time to time.

The young master respects this eunuch so much, will he find out with conscience and return the money?

It's okay to return half of it!

The sack on the left is fine, um, so is the one on the right.

Cao Zhengchun nodded, as if he had forgotten about the money, even though the openings of the two sacks on the ground were still shining, he turned a blind eye to them.

What silver?
These are souvenirs!It's our family's ration!

"My lord Chen, with a loyal person like you, why worry about Ming Dynasty being unhappy? Don't worry, our family's words in front of the Holy One are still useful. Although there is no sufficient evidence to kill this prince, our family will use some means to make him lose his life." Thanks to Sheng's grace, it's not our family's decision when the time comes to make it wrong."

Chen Jiu was very sorry.

His little money should be meat buns beating dogs. If I knew that Cao Zhengchun was so good at making up his mind, why would he spend so much money?

What can be done with 10 taels of silver made him 50.

This stepping stone is also too expensive.

It's not too much to recognize a business ghost.

It was only afternoon, Cao Zhengchun didn't leave Chen Jiu to drink tea, he needed to confirm some things.

In the An family's account book, is there any record of the prince accepting bribes?

Did the prince hide the masters of the Yuan people in the palace?

As long as these two points are confirmed, then this Qianhu is not alarmist.

There is no need to doubt whether Cao Zhengchun can find out, as long as he thinks, he can get the record of how many times the concubine called Chun when Zhengde was working in the harem.

Seeing that Cao Zhengchun picked up the teacup and said nothing, Chen Jiu knew what he meant.

All right, as long as this eunuch keeps an eye on Eunuch Wang, then the matter will be settled.

After getting up to bid farewell to Cao Zhengchun, Chen Jiu hurried back to Shenhou Mansion.

He's running the show.

The promise to Zhu Ting has not been resolved yet.

Chen Jiu first went to see Zhuge Zhengwo, and after telling his master what happened, he got his praise.

"You've been busy for a long time, take a rest first, and you don't have to worry about the rest."

"Thank you, master, for your concern. The apprentice is really not tired. By the way, are Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou still at the residence?"

Although he didn't rest for two days and one night, Chen Jiu didn't feel tired.

He has already forgotten his original intention, he is no longer a stinky salty fish lying around all day.

Hard work makes me happy.

Zhuge Zheng I glared at him.

"You and Yayu haven't said a few words after paying homage, is there anything more important than Yayu?"

When the master and father-in-law said this, Chen Jiu finally realized it.

Yes, there was no way last night, today is the wedding day, and I am also a social animal of Mao Maoqiu.

Damn, I was so mad at that dead eunuch.

Boss Zhu, I'm sorry, you've had a good time in prison anyway, you won't die if you stay a few more days, right?

Chen Jiu decisively left Zhu Ting behind, and bowed to Zhuge Zhengwo with a smile.

"Master, then I'll go to Yayu first."

Zhuge Zheng put a kind smile on my face.

"Well, go to Zuiyuelou for dinner at night, Tieshou has prepared clothes for you, don't forget to change into them."

Eh?
Is this going to make up for the wedding?

In other words, can you skip these stages and go straight to the bridal chamber?

in a hurry.
