The atmosphere in the warehouse was tense, and every breath was clearly terrifying, she took a long breath, and the steward couldn't help but tremble a little, Fang Shen asked: "The price of goods in Kyoto has risen recently?" ”

After thinking about it, the steward immediately returned: "It's rising, I didn't take it seriously, but now that I think about it, it must be a large amount of counterfeit money in circulation, and this money is cheap, and things are expensive." ”

Seeing that Tian Mi frowned more and more, the steward said in a trembling voice: "In charge, in the long run, I am afraid that the order of the Fang City will be chaotic, the order is chaotic, and this country is ......."

"Shut up!" Tian Mi drank in a deep voice, trying her best to hold back the emotions on her face, but she still felt a heart attack, so she asked in a low voice: "Do you know who took the counterfeit money to deposit?" ”

"Everybody." The steward replied: "From the powerful families to the common people, I later noticed that the coins they brought were all mixed with counterfeit money, and there was no way to find out. ”

The steward came here, and he really wanted to cry, "There are so many people, there is no way to investigate, if this is investigated, the magnates are good, this ordinary person, I don't know how many will be indiscriminately filled and imprisoned, especially like us, there is a ...... of slurred speech"

The steward was gushing endlessly, crying on his vocal cords, but Tian Mi seemed to be caught in his own emotions and ignored him.

"Have you already dispersed......" said in a low voice, Tian Mi pinched her eyebrows lightly, and thought: "Whether it is one or more places where counterfeit coins are made, at the beginning, counterfeit coins are all concentrated together, and to fight so scattered, it is too slow to rely on ordinary transactions with counterfeit money, and the usual practice is to ......"

Her clear eyes turned, thinking about the tricks she had known in her previous life, and thinking about it, she turned and walked out quickly.

The stakes are very high, and if one is not good, it will lose its head, and if it is not done well, it will be a turbulent situation, which must be dealt with as soon as possible.

Seeing that she didn't say a word, she walked out, and the steward hurriedly followed, and said hurriedly: "Don't be impulsive, you are in charge." I'm afraid the court doesn't know about this matter yet, so we have to think about it in the long run. ”

Seeing that Tian Mi didn't pay attention to him, but his steps were getting faster and faster, he gritted his teeth. Then he asked: "Then the master, can we still accept counterfeit money?" If you don't accept it, you will accept it under the notice, how can we get rid of it after we accept it? ”

Tian Mi really paused. She has calmed down a lot, pursed her lips, and said: "When this kind of thing happens, it is always the common people who suffer the most, whether it is buying and selling, working or working, and working hard, but what is in hand is fake, if we don't accept it, they will be busy until the end is empty." The blood and sweat were all in vain. ”

The steward's eyes also added some complicated emotions, Tian Mi paused, and said: "If we refuse to accept it, and the court can't deal with it in time, they will be hit by this, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no trouble, and when the time comes, it will be really chaotic." On the court side, I'm afraid that the sin will also be pushed on our heads. In that way, we are not human inside and out, and if we are not good, we will never recover. ”

Her clear eyes fell into the void, and she said slowly: "Yes." Block the news first, and the money will be collected in the same way, just pay attention to whether there is anything unusual, and I will deal with the rest. ”

"Yes, it has to be." The steward nodded busily. Seeing Tian Mi starting, he hurriedly followed, and couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know who is so bold, this is really harmful, why are you getting so much money?" One is not good, the head is gone. ”

Listening to the steward's muttering, Tian Mi didn't stop, just kept her face calm, and her eyes became more sharp.

It's not just exchanging counterfeit money for real money, in exchange, but also those materials bought with counterfeit money, which is probably the cheapest empty glove white wolf at the bottom, which is simply fake, but in essence, it is stealing national materials and money, and fulfilling their own wealth and ambitions.

Such a person is simply a thief who steals the country and the people!

Tian Mi went straight to the carriage and instructed the coachman: "Go to the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”

Today's rest, many people went to Huguo Temple to play, the prime minister did not go, according to his living habits, most of them were at home.

Tian Mi expected it to be good, Cui Xiyan really stayed in the house, when Tian Mi arrived, he was in the study to deal with official business, and the servant led her to the pavilion in the middle of the lake later, and not long after, Cui Xiyan arrived quickly.

I don't know why, as soon as he saw Tian Mi, he raised his smile, that gentle and gentle face, which can be called enthusiastic, he greeted very familiarly: "The girl came just in time, and I am looking for you in the next place." ”

Coincidence again? Tian Mi was slightly surprised, but she had something in her heart, and she didn't want to ask anything else, so she said straight to the point: "The woman has something to report to the prime minister." ”

"Oh?" Cui Xiyan saw that her face was different, and couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?" ”

Tian Mi sorted out her thoughts for a while, and reported: "The woman just saw the second prince come back, so she listened to the bank manager ...... the woman."

Tian Mi carefully explained the matter, after Cui Xiyan heard it, her face was not much better than her, it should be, it was much uglier, ugly, and even more disappointed and ridiculed.

Tian Mi looked at his complicated expression, and felt a little different in his heart, press, the prime minister heard this, he may be shocked, he may be heavy, he may be angry, of course, he has these emotions, but, what is the extra disappointment and ridicule?

It was in this complicated look that Cui Xiyan shook his head and smiled, his gaze crossed the beams of the cornices, forgot to the most magnificent place underneath, and whispered: "Those who steal hooks will be punished, and those who steal the country will be punished." ”

Tian Mi couldn't help frowning, what do you mean by this?

Cui Xiyan shook his head and chuckled, his laughter was a little desolate, but he was a little relieved, he beckoned, and said to the maidservant: "Cook wine." ”

Tian Mi felt that there was something wrong with his emotions, but it was nothing, just pressed his mind and sat quietly.

"It's just right that the girl came." Cui Xiyan's smile was complicated and difficult to distinguish, although his eyes looked at Tian Mi, his gaze was not focused, and he shook his head and said: "Girl, do you know what she is doing in the study when she is in the lower general?" ”

Tian Mi naturally shook her head.

Cui Xiyan smiled, took out a letter from his sleeve, put it on the table, pushed it in front of Tian Mi, and said, "This is a secret letter from Xuan Shizi to Zaixia." ”

Tian Mi blinked slowly, took out the letterhead from the envelope, and Cui Xiyan said in a timely manner: "It's good news." ”

If it weren't for the news she had just brought, it would indeed be great news, and it would be enough for everyone to celebrate.

In the letter, the battle, which had been stalemate for two or three months, was finally broken, and the army broke through the encirclement and won a complete victory, which not only severely damaged the main force of the enemy. It also destroyed the grain and grass of the enemy camp, causing the enemy's vitality to be greatly damaged.

There was this battle, and then several battles were won, and now. It has invaded the territory of Eastern Chu.

Seeing this, Tian Mi closed her eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, and in the blink of an eye, she couldn't help but think of forcing the enemy army back to the territory of the enemy country. And all the way up, as the battle line is lengthened, the supply of grain and grass is even more difficult.

She was distracted for a moment, and then listened to Cui Xiyan say: "The prince has captured the ghost in the general, and the mastermind has been found. ”

Cui Xiyan poured himself a glass of wine, he raised his head and took a sip, the liquor entered his throat, burning his entire intestines, but it was not smoother, on the contrary. It's heavier. After a long time, he spoke: "It's the third prince." ”

Tian Mi was shocked, turned her head slightly, and frowned: "You are, and you are also a counterfeit currency made by the order of the third prince?" ”

Cui Xiyan shook his head, he said: "No, the Three Princes Army is heavy, but in other aspects, it is not abrupt, otherwise." It won't be that he hasn't sat on the throne of the crown prince until now. ”

"When it comes to money, ......" He paused, his eyes fell on Tian Mi, and seeing her doubts, he thought about it. He shook his head lightly and said: "Now, it's just association and speculation, there is no real evidence, it is not enough to win the trust of people, just like the son of the world knows the truth from the inner ghost, but there is no stronger evidence of the crime." He did not dare to rashly expose the crimes of the prince. ”

So...... Tian Mi thought of what the prime minister had done before, the princes who stole the country, her eyes moved, and her heart sank slightly.

Kyoto looks so vast, and what is frozen in the air is so heavy, like this ice and snow, and the people on it, every step they take, is like walking on thin ice.

The cold wind blew through the icy lake, bringing an icy breath, and when the wind blew on his cheeks, it stabbed his face like an ice blade.

Tian Mi's cheeks stiffened, and after a while, she pulled herself out of the heavy atmosphere and said in a low voice: "I can't help the affairs of the army, but the matter of counterfeit money involves Baixin, and I can't sit idly by." ”

"Yes, you are a member of Baixin's family, and now how many pairs of eyes are looking at you, even if you take a wrong step, it will be a catastrophe." Cui Xiyan cupped his wine glass and pondered: "This matter, if it is not handled well, it will be a big disaster, if it is handled well, girl, you are definitely a great achievement." ”

He slowly turned his eyes, looked at Tian Mi, and asked, "Girl, do you have a plan?" ”

The Prime Minister's mind is quick. The corners of Tian Mi's lips moved, looked at him and said: "The other party completely scattered the counterfeit money in the entire national capital, this range is too large, it is really difficult to investigate, if you ask one by one, are there so many officials or second, so hard work, will inevitably cause instability among the people." ”

"But if you don't check, that's impossible. The other party has stolen such a huge amount of materials and wealth, if there is no ambition, no one will believe it, especially Your Majesty, who will definitely be the first to let go. Cui Xiyan pursed his lips and said, "But if you check, where can you sort out these inextricable characters?" If there is something wrong, according to the holy nature, I am afraid that it will be another catastrophe. ”

"But if I, what if I have a way?" The amber-like eyes are clear and bright, as if there is a bloom of brilliance.

"Girl......" Cui Xiyan thought of what had happened to her, and couldn't help but say solemnly: "Please also ask the girl to give advice." ”

"Although we can't be sure immediately, we can narrow the scope, and the scope will be easy to investigate." Tian Mi's eyes deepened a little, and said slowly: "Everything has a source, counterfeit money flows out, there must be a source, this source must be a large and miscellaneous currency circulation, and the fish and dragons are mixed, very convenient place." ”

Cui Xiyan's hand holding the cup tightened, looked at her uncertainly, and hesitated: "Are you ......?"

"Qingyun Street." Clear eyes looked at him fixedly, she said: "Counterfeit money and money laundering methods are often similar, through gambling houses, through underground banks, etc., the concentrated coins are scattered, and through countless participants into the market, in this way, the black becomes white, the real becomes fake, and there is no way to find out." ”

Cui Xiyan looked at the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl in front of her in surprise, stunned by her calmness and determination in these private affairs, that composure, like a hunter who has been fighting with wild beasts all year round, knows every situation of the other party well, and can deal with it calmly.

Is she really, only fifteen or sixteen?

Cui Xiyan's thirty visits to the prime minister is a legend in itself, however, this is the first time, how much does he think there are in this world? Especially this girl, who has been stupid for more than ten years, once woke up and endowed with extraordinary talents, this is the real gift, right?

Cui Xiyan was stunned, but the crisp and quiet voice continued: "My lord, this matter should be done sooner rather than later, please deploy as soon as possible, and arrest the ill-intentioned person as soon as possible, the longer the time, the easier it is to get out of control." ”

"That's nature." Cui Xiyan retracted his thoughts, his eyes were already calm with a faint smile, but his gaze was a little deep when he looked at Tian Mi.

Tian Mi felt this unobstructed gaze, she was not disgusted, but sat quietly for a long time, her lips moved, and finally asked a question that had been pressed in her heart for a long time. To be continued
