In the middle of the night, Jiang Anyi woke up with the sound of neighing.

There was a knock on the door outside the house, and Park Tianhao called anxiously: "Lord, lord." ”

Jiang Anyi got up and opened the door, and Pu Tianhao hurriedly said: "Lord, there are soldiers and horses from outside the house, I don't know what it means?" ”

Being in a foreign country and unpredictable, Jiang Anyi didn't dare to be careless, and ordered: "Inform Ansi that they should be prepared, and if Chen Han doesn't arrive, we will leave." ”

Park Tianhao was ordered to leave, and a moment later there was a sound of heavy footsteps in the corridor, and Chen Han rolled like a ball of meat.

"My lord, the city defense department led the army to besiege the mansion, saying that he wanted to arrest the spies." Chen Han took a few breaths, evened out his breath and said, "Now the situation is unknown, the lord will avoid it first." Heji, you take the lord and leave through the side door, and wait for me to send someone to contact you. ”

At this time, Park Tianhao had already summoned Qi Rao Ansi and others to arrive, and Park Tianhao said coldly: "Chen Han, when the lord comes to your mansion, the City Defense Department will send someone to arrest you, are you ill-intentioned." ”

In the cold winter, the sweat on Chen Han's face was rolling down, he had seen Jiang Anyi's bravery, even if he couldn't resist Jiang Anyi's two fists and three palms back then, not to mention that his family was still in Leizhou, it can be said that the lives of the whole family were in Jiang Anyi's hands, and the relationship between Jiang Anyi and Queen Shasu also made him have no dissent.

"Plop", Chen Han knelt on the ground, and swore a gambling curse: "If Chen Han has the slightest bit of a place that cannot live with the lord, he is willing to be cut by a thousand knives, and he will not be able to live forever after death." ”

Jiang Anyi stretched out his hand, and Chen Han, who was more than 200 catties, was gently picked up by him. Jiang Anyi said: "I can trust you and listen to your arrangement." ”

At this time, the noise is getting closer, and the sound of running footsteps can be clearly heard. Chen Han hurriedly confessed: "Heji can be trusted, the lord can let him find out the news." ”

Heji is a young man in his twenties, with deep facial features and golden hair, and he turned around and greeted Jiang Anyi and the others in Zheng language: "Several masters, come with me." "The countries of the Western Regions are deeply influenced by Zheng Guo, and with the influence of the Zheng people who have been captive for more than a hundred years, the vast majority of people can understand and speak Zheng language, and there are many fewer people who can write.

Chen Han's mansion was very large, Jiang Anyi and the others followed Heji through the corridor and went south, and came to a remote side door, Heji stood on his legs and listened with his ears. Jiang Anyi said: "There is no one outside. ”

Hedge opened the door, and in the middle of the night, it was pitch black outside. Heji motioned to Jiang Anyi and the others to wait, ran out by himself, and came back after a while to signal Jiang Anyi and the others to continue walking with him. Outside is an alley, the two houses stand opposite each other, leaving a six-foot-wide alley, I saw Heji go straight to the small door opposite, and explained softly: "Several masters, this mansion is also Chen's, no one knows." ”

Entering the mansion, Heji continued to walk south, crossing this mansion, Jiang Anyi was a little surprised, this mansion was very quiet, as if no one lived in it. Heji said softly: "Master, this mansion was placed by the lord in the name of the merchant of Rongmi country, and now the merchant has gone to Rongmi, and there are only a few housekeepers left in the house. ”

The footsteps did not stop, and came to the side door of the south wall, Heji listened carefully, there was no one outside, so he went out first and then asked Jiang Anyi and others to follow, and actually entered a mansion again. Park Tianhao couldn't help but say: "This mansion was bought by your master?" ”

Heji smiled and said: "Yes, my lord has purchased seven or eight family houses in Shasu City in various capacities, and there are three litters of rabbits. The owner of this mansion on the surface is a merchant from Huli Country, but in fact, I am taking care of it, and a few masters can live here with confidence. ”

Rao Ansi laughed softly: "It's really rare to see such a fat rabbit. ”

It was not good to light the lamp in the middle of the night, Heji did not alarm the slaves, and quietly placed Jiang Anyi and others, Jiang Anyi secretly praised, this Heji was very safe and meticulous, but I don't know what happened to Chen Han.

Chen Han's house was lit with torches, and Jiang Anyi was sent away, Chen Han stabilized his mind, and walked forward with a stagger, and met Kulik, the deputy general of the City Defense Division, in the corridor. Xiang Yuxing is doing business in various countries, and he has a lot of dealings with the City Defense Division, and this Kulik is Chen Han's guest, and he takes a lot of benefits.

From afar, Chen Han smiled and said, "What's the matter, General Labor came in the middle of the night, I asked people to prepare fragrant tea, let's sit down and talk." ”

Kulik had a cold face, put on a businesslike look and said, "Master Chen, I'm sorry." Brother Ling told you that you had bad intentions, and the general sent me to search. ”

It turned out to be Chen Qiu, Chen Han couldn't wait to give him a heartwarming foot, and said with a smile on his face: "General, I scolded my brother a few words in the evening, but I didn't expect him to hold a grudge, Chen has always been law-abiding, and will never do anything to make friends with a spy, if the general doesn't believe me, I am willing to confront my brother face to face." ”

Kulikpi said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, you go and talk to General Rehe, and make your brother in the city defense yamen." Master Chen, don't stop me from searching for spies, what are you still doing in a daze, search for me. ”

Chickens and dogs jumped over the wall, and the soldiers of the City Defense Division inevitably took the opportunity to fill their pockets. Seeing that Kulik didn't give face and didn't say much, Chen Han turned around and went back to the lobby, ordered to put snacks on the table, and waited while eating. Chen Han was sure in his heart that a little floating wealth was nothing, as long as the lord was there, with the relationship between the lord and the queen, he had to vomit out as much as he ate.

Thinking of Chen Qiu, Chen Han hated it so much, he was really a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised, and he actually went to the City Defense Division to sue himself, but why did Chen Qiu do this, and what was the benefit to him? Chen Han became suspicious, stretched out his hand and touched his waist, and the key of ** was still there.

Kulik sent someone over and asked him to open the door of the secret vault in the backyard, there were gold coins in the vault, Chen Han thought to himself that when the vault door was opened, he didn't know how many gold coins would be left. It's just that how can people not bow their heads under the low eaves, and everything will wait until this level is over.

It was clear that there were 45 bags of gold coins inside, a total of 45,000 coins (38 bags of gold coins were not transported, and 7 bags were sent in succession). Kulik's eyes emitted golden light, and they all said that Xiangyu was rich and rivaled the country, and after doing it this time, he would resign and hide in other countries with gold coins, even if Chen Han had the ability to do anything with himself.

The heavy door opened, and in the light of the torches, it could be seen that half a room of sheepskin bags were piled up inside, all of which were feet high and bulging. Chen Han still wanted to make a final effort, and said, "General, there will be no people hidden in these bags." ”

Kulik's eyes were now fascinated by the golden light, and he shouted, "Open the bag and see if there is any information hidden inside." ”

Before there was time to untie the rope, the bag was peeled open with a knife, and the gold coin flowed out, dazzling in the firelight. The soldiers who approached couldn't help but reach out and grab it, and stuffed it into their arms, and those soldiers who were standing a little farther away couldn't bear it, and they rushed to the storehouse, and they were so bold that they simply threw away the knives and guns in their hands, and carried them one bag at a time. A bag of gold coins weighs about forty catties, and it is hard to practice weightlifting, but at this time I wish I could carry three bags in one hand. Chen Han accepted his fate, let them go, as long as he can keep the lord safe, the lord of some property should not take it to heart.

When Kulik saw that everything was in chaos, he was so anxious that he shouted: "These are all stolen goods, they can't be moved, and they have to wait for General Rehe's orders." Put it down, don't take it. ”

No one listened to him, and Kulik drew his knife and slashed at a soldier who was running out with two bags of gold coins in his hand. The sword flashed, the arm fell with the bag, and the screams sobered up the scrambling soldiers. Kulik shouted: "Whoever dares to disobey the order will be killed." ”

"Look, General." Someone next to him exclaimed. Kulik looked down his hand and saw the parchment bags that had fallen on the ground scattered, and instead of gold coins, they were pebbles the size of eggs.

"What's going on?" Kulik turned around and asked Chen Han with a bloody knife.

Chen Han all understood, it must have been Chen Qiu who stole the gold coins in the treasury for fear that he would find out, and filled the number with pebbles, and saw the arrival of Jiang Anyi and his party last night and mistakenly thought that he was the one who came to transport the gold coins, so he took the risk to report himself to the City Defense Division, but he was crooked, he was originally also the identity of Longwei's secret agent, and it can only be said that this is the will of heaven to make people.

Looking at the angry Kulik, Chen Han said coldly: "The general went to my mansion to search for spies, and now he asks why the gold coins in Chen's treasury are fake without asking the spies, which is really a strange thing." After dawn, Chen will definitely go to General Rehe to ask whether the City Defense Department is using spies or looting people's wealth, if General Rehe does not give me an answer, I will go to the queen to ask for an explanation. ”

Chen Han's words were like pouring cold water, Kulik woke up from the temptation of gold, he didn't catch the spy from Chen's mansion tonight, Chen Han will definitely make trouble tomorrow, he heard that Chen Han's hands and eyes are open to the sky, and the relationship with the queen and the prince is very close, and he has to send a lot of objects to the palace every year, and the perfume used by the queen is constantly at all times, and only Chen Han can buy all kinds of perfumes in the entire Shasu country.

Under the light of the torches, Kulik's face was cloudy, if the treasury was full of gold coins, he simply slaughtered the fat man and escaped with the money, but judging from the scattered bags, I don't know how many of the bags are stones, and it is not worth the risk. Those soldiers also came to their senses, the seemingly harmless fat man in front of him was actually a powerful character, and when the time came, the general would throw a few scapegoats out, and they were the ones who were unlucky.

After standing for a moment, Kulik said abruptly, "Don't put the money back yet." Master Chen, the lower officials came by order, and they are offended, if you have anything to say, go and tell General Rehe. Come, withdraw from the Chen Mansion, watch the entrance and exit gates, and wait for the general's orders. Master Chen, please wait for the news with peace of mind. ”

Sending Kulik away, Chen Han began to count the vault, six of the forty-five bags of gold coins were divided, less than half of the gold coins were left, and twenty bags were pebbles, and Chen Qiu, this kid, took away 20,000 gold coins at once.

The sky is gradually white, Chen Han frowns and stands in front of the eaves, the city of Xinyi is unpredictable, the Tule family controls the government, the queen lives in the harem and is greedy for pleasure, according to the plan, the prince will be in charge after the New Year's Day, but all kinds of rumors are extremely unfavorable to the prince, Xiangyuxing has always been close to the prince, what does the city defense division mean to his own shot?

Chen Han sighed, the lord must have come to Xinyi City at this time to help the prince, I don't know if he can get his wish, thinking of all kinds of chaos in the royal court, Chen Han couldn't help but sigh again.
