Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 127 Invisible Enemy
Seemingly sensing Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze, Hu Weiyong immediately said: "Of course not!"

He answered very simply.

"Su Yuan envoy Cheng Sheng was kind and step by step from the ninth rank inspector to the fifth rank imperial official. It can be said that he reached the sky in one step. He had no friendship with Liu Bowen and was not familiar with Liu Lian and others. His son Su Xian was in the main hall , I heard that there are many disrespectful words towards you gentlemen, which can be described as being naughty!"

"So, Ambassador Su had no motive for writing down these treacherous speculations!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang restrained his eyes.

However, Hu Weiyong seems to be speaking for Su Guiyuan, but Su Guiyuan is not an idiot to think that you are really a good person...

really!

Hu Weiyong changed his subject.

"But having said that, anyone who dares to do such an act of betraying the Nine Clans is truly a coward. They don't know the majesty of the Holy One, and even their brains..."

As Hu Weiyong talked, he even wanted to curse. Is he an idiot or a lunatic? Something wrong with your brain?
After writing this rumor on the treasure banknote, do you still dare to guess that Liu Bowen's case is related to the Holy Emperor? You ask all the officials in the court, even if they guessed this in their hearts, which one would not quickly swallow it in his stomach. When drinking, he is afraid that others will get him drunk and say such crazy words!

"Your Majesty, someone is in a hurry."

suddenly!

Liu Lian's eyes were full of confusion, and he still didn't understand what he meant.

Hu Weiyong said warmly: "I haven't said my name yet."

"Brother, can you buy me something to eat? I'm hungry!"

Hu Weiyong spoke again.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

Seeing that he is getting closer and closer to his goal, the first batch of "seasonings" for Gewuyuan has been prepared. After they enter the market and sell well, Gewuyuan will be fully operational.

Before Hu Weiyong could speak, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice rose slightly and he suddenly shouted two words.

to be frank.

And it has appeared repeatedly recently.

Su Xian had an impression of it. When the Gewuyuan was abandoned, it seemed to be a place where they often stayed. However, since the Gewuyuan was opened, the place needed to be renovated and a high-walled courtyard was built, so many beggars were driven out.

At this moment, a soft and waxy sound sounded next to her. Su Xian turned around and found an unkempt little girl squatting on the roadside. She was younger than herself and about the same age as Zhu Xiongying. She looked about five or six years old. .

Now that I had just walked out of the door, I felt like someone was secretly cursing me and sneezed for no reason.

The other person raised his face, his hair was withered and yellow, his face was dirty, and he had beautiful almond-shaped eyes. The clothes he wore were grown-up clothes that he picked up from somewhere. The robes were hanging on the ground, they were thin and pitiful.

At this moment, Su Guiyuan, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, suddenly shouted, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Gewuyuan.

"Ah!"

"Who do you want to say?"

Next, plan carefully!
"This is my country."

Fortunately, the distance is relatively close, and you can reach Huai'anfang by walking through three or five streets.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyebrows twitched, as if he thought of something.

Let’s not talk about the anger and blame of the Holy One.

Fang Xiaoru and Song Lian both seemed to have thought of something. They looked at each other, their eyes full of shock, and the slightest thought of the same thing - couldn't they?

Su Xian had just accepted seven more students from the Imperial Academy.

When Su Xian first came to Gewuyuan, he still needed someone to take him there, but he came more often, and he thought he was almost grown up, so he no longer needed to take him there.

Hu Weiyong spoke very quickly, "So, it must be that daring person!"

That's what happened in this month. These Guozi students must be retained by themselves, and good craftsmen must also be retained.

Zhu Biao looked shocked.

Just talking about how to suppress this rumor and protect the innocence of the Holy One is enough to give him a headache.

In the past few days, the family has been moving one after another. My father has to go to Chaojingyuan to do some work, and the big items have been moved to Huai'anfang. In fact, there is nothing really to be moved at home, just some soft goods that need to be cleaned up by my mother.

He stood up angrily. At this moment, he no longer had to deliberately suppress his calmness even if he was framed. Instead, he said angrily to Hu Weiyong: "Hu Xiang, even if you make a guess, you have to have evidence. You might as well say it's me. Do it!"

"If you dare to do this, you are either ignorant of the law and naturally daring! Or you are hiding in the dark and doing it deliberately. But hiding in the dark, sooner or later there is a risk of being found out and implicating the nine clans. And if you want to stir up this storm, you will not do it deliberately. It affects the Holy One!"

The result is now really circulating in the market, and it is even spread all over the streets!

Just when Hu Weiyong said this, for some reason, the solemn atmosphere in the room suddenly stopped.

Thinking of this, I was about to go back.

Thinking about the great prospects for the future, Su Xian was about to go home...

"Su Xian?"

Bold and daring, there is obviously a daring guy!

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this matter has nothing to do with us."

……

It was a helpless move.

Seeing that Su Xian had been silent, he seemed to feel something. The almond-shaped eyes that had just lit up quickly dimmed, and he lowered his head and left.

"What do you want to eat?" Su Xian sighed and asked.

The former raised his head suddenly, his almond-shaped eyes sparkling, "Anything is fine!"

Su Xian looked ahead, where there was a place selling steamed buns, and immediately led him there, "How many do you want to eat?"

The girl didn't speak, she just swallowed and then looked back.

Su Xian understood clearly, "Boss, take care of the rest."

With that said, Su Xian took out two hundred cash notes.

I don't know since when, the Su family, which previously relied on a ninth-grade annual salary, has no shortage of money.

"Thank you, brother!"

The other party nodded sharply, and then looked at the bun shop eagerly.

Su Xian thought of something and asked, "Have you always been here before?"

The girl remembered something, "then she nodded and shook her head."

Su Xian didn't understand what the other party meant, so he had to ask: "Where are your adults?"

The latter shook his head again.

"Gone?"

Su Xian stopped asking any more questions, but at this moment, a group of children ran over from behind. Some of these children were older than girls, and some were even younger than her. They were both boys and girls.

Su Xian vaguely saw some big beggars standing in the corner and looking this way.

His eyes were wandering, and he just watched them grab the buns and quickly run away.

The girl looked at him and ran away.

Su Xian wanted to say something, but stopped.

"Young Master Su, why are you so kind?" The bun seller in front suddenly spoke.

Now, many people near Gewuyuan already know Su Xian, and it is precisely because of familiarity that Su Xian can come here with confidence.

Su Xian didn't know why.

"Oh, they are under supervision..." The other party didn't seem to want to say more, and shook his head when he thought of something, "It's all as it should be. Young Master, it's better not to have too much dealings with them. From now on, you should follow the adults at home."

Su Xian nodded, then looked behind him. He didn't say anything but felt strange and left quickly...

And just after he walked away.

Not far away, on the other side of the corner, a group of children were scrambling to eat steamed buns. They seemed to be very hungry.

"Eat! Eat! I know how to eat all day long, why don't I eat you to death?"

Beside, four or five beggars looked at the direction Su Xian left.

One of them suddenly said: "The boss is talking about him, right?"

"Well, Su Xian!"

"During this period, I am more eye-catching than the courtesans in Qinhuai River. It is true that my family is responsible for printing money, and I will give out two hundred coins as soon as I ask."

"That person is a popular person in front of the Holy Emperor. Besides, you are talking about printing money. Two hundred coins is nothing."

"Bah! These dog officers are all the same, so Su Guiyuan must have stolen a lot."

Listening to the whispers of several people around him, an older man in the middle suddenly said: "It's not a good time to take action here, you have to find another opportunity."

"But having said that, after all, it has something to do with the emperor's eldest grandson. I'm really a little scared. He said that someone from the pro-military captain's mansion is going to be next to him... Then we are not asking for death!"

"Isn't what I'm doing now looking for death? I'm also a member of the nine tribes being executed! If you're afraid, leave quickly..."

"Shut up, everyone." The elder saw the little figure gradually disappearing from his eyes, and he suddenly looked at the girl beside him.

"What did he just say to you?"

……

at the same time……

Wenhua Palace!
"Your Majesty, no matter how bold my son is, why would he write this on the treasure banknote?"

Su Guiyuan had already looked at Hu Weiyong angrily. Not long ago, the other party put pressure on him and paid two million yuan of treasure.

He only felt that Prime Minister Hu was aloof and had no intention of resisting.

But now, after hearing the other person cover his son's head many times now, he couldn't bear it anymore. Never once did he really want to go up and fight with him for his life!

He suppressed the boiling emotions in his heart and simply said: "Your Majesty, Xian'er has spent more time in the palace during this period than at home. Your Majesty must know what he wants to do and what he is doing."

"Why should I listen to his slander!"

"Besides, I don't have that many treasures in my family!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Su Guiyuan who seemed to be going completely crazy.

He couldn't help but look at Hu Weiyong. He didn't believe that Su Xian did this.

Just thinking about that boy who was bold enough to write a memorial to himself...

"Hu Weiyong, please finish your sentence."

"Yes!"

Hu Weiyong immediately said: "It was all speculation before, but the reason why I said this is because this matter is indeed related to the Su Yuan Envoy!"

talking.

Seeing Su Guiyuan still trying to defend himself, coupled with the His Majesty's increasingly impatient gaze.

Hu Weiyong said again: "Did your Majesty send someone to collect those treasure notes?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, not knowing what the other party was going to say.

But he still narrowed his eyes and suddenly waved his hand in a certain direction.

Soon, Mao Xiang hurried away and came back again, bringing a large stack of treasure notes.

Hu Weiyong also took this opportunity to take out some from his sleeves, basically worth a hundred coins.

"Before Cai Chen came here, he also sent people to look for some outside..."

"Envoy Su Yuan, since you are in such a mess, why not take a look for yourself?"

With that said, he handed the treasure notes in his hand to Mao Xiang, who put them together. While still hesitating, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and then gave them to Su Guiyuan.

Zhu Yuanzhang is still confused

When Su Guiyuan took it in his hand and looked at it for a few times, he suddenly raised his head.

There was panic in his eyes!

"Envoy Su Yuan, can you see clearly?" Hu Weiyong's tone was light, but anyone could clearly see the cold meaning in his words.

Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more confused and just continued to look at Su Guiyuan.

But he saw that the latter had become more and more frightened, and finally stopped evading the Holy Lord's gaze.

"Su Guiyuan?" His voice rose slightly, "Is it possible that the rumors above are really a bold and reckless act by Su Xian?"

"Your Majesty! Absolutely not!" Su Guiyuan suddenly raised his head.

"Then you make such a frightened expression and pretend that we can't see it?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

this moment.

Su Guiyuan squeezed his fingers tightly, suppressing some impulse in his heart.

Finally spoke again:
"Your Majesty, I don't know the words on the treasure banknote. Anyway, it is definitely not the work of the minister."

"But these treasure notes are basically certain..."

Su Guiyuan lowered his head, and only the voice sounded slowly.

"Most of them are fake!"

Swish!
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes immediately became sharp.

"Counterfeit banknotes? Counterfeit banknotes again? Do you think we can't see clearly? This is obviously real! Also, we asked you to check it out at the end of the year. What did you say?"

"Do you think you can understand this matter by evading the counterfeit money?"

Hu Weiyong's eyes fluctuated.

Now, it's finally time to get rid of this eyesore.

"Your Majesty, these treasure banknotes are even more fake than the last time. They seem to have been printed with a printing plate. Although new banknotes will be issued soon, this is not a solution to this problem."

"After all, if these counterfeit banknotes continue to be cashed in, no bank will be able to sustain it."

"Su Guiyuan was in the Baochao Prosecution Office before, and after His Majesty repeatedly warned that he must verify it immediately, there are still such authentic treasures among the people. It is difficult not to make people doubt whether he really took the printing plate out. .”

The cold words sounded, as if they were going to put Su Guiyuan to death completely.

"In addition to the rumors above, Your Majesty! To say who dares to be so bold, there are very few in the entire capital."

"But that newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, he is definitely one!"
