After entering the mansion, Yan Zixi instructed everyone: "You all search carefully for this concubine, and you can't let it go anywhere...... Did you hear that? ”

"Yes!"

Everyone responded and scattered to search, Yan Zixi glanced at Zhao Rushen, who was still stunned, and snorted unhappily: "Lord Zhao, what are you still doing here?" Do you just let the prince and the concubine just stand here? ”

When Zhao Rushen heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "The princess is angry, the princess is angry, and the lower officials will let people bring chairs to prepare pastries and fragrant tea." ”

Saying that, Zhao Rushen hurriedly scolded the family members behind him: "A few of you quickly move two chairs over, and order the kitchen to prepare high-quality fragrant tea and pastries immediately, quickly!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

After hearing Zhao Rushen's order, several family members immediately took action, for fear of snubbing Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi, and attracting Zhao Rushen's scolding.

Zhao Rushen nodded and walked in front of Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi, and asked with pretended concern.

"Lord Xiao, Princess Xiao, aren't you going to search and search?"

"Oh, don't need it, Lord Zhao, this king has always believed in your character, Lord Zhao is innocent and honest, how could he do such a ridiculous thing?" Xiao Jingcong deliberately put a high hat on Zhao Rushen, and after Zhao Rushen listened, his mouth couldn't close with a smile.

"Haha, Lord Wang, you still know about the lower officials! The prince is really discerning, selfless, and admired! Admire! Zhao Rushen also spared no effort to pat Xiao Jingcong's ass.

After a while, two chairs were brought over, and several maids also brought steaming tea and freshly made pastries.

Sitting on the chair eating exquisite pastries and tasting fragrant tea, Yan Zixi only felt full of comfort, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this Zhao Rushen can really enjoy it.

The chairs at home are so comfortable to sit on, and the pastries are very delicious, it seems that he is a person who knows how to enjoy life!

It's just a pity that soon he won't be able to continue to enjoy such a comfortable and comfortable life......

During the time that Yan Zixi and Xiao Jingcong were waiting for the search, Zhao Rushen had been serving respectfully on the side, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, for fear that Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi would not be entertained well.

However, there was no fear on his face, and he was not at all worried that the money he had hidden would be searched.

Because Zhao Rushen had made all preparations in advance, his secret room was under the bed board of his wife's room, and he had just told her wife to pretend to be sick in bed, so that no one would find out the secret passage of the secret room under the bed board!

That's why Zhao Rushen can be so fearless and completely unmoved.

About a cup of tea later, Xiao Jingcong's guards led the searching people out, and those people were carrying several large wooden boxes that looked very heavy.

Zhao Rushen glanced at the big wooden boxes, and a hint of something bad rose in his heart, and when he was wondering where these boxes came from, the guard had already walked in front of Xiao Jingcong's Yan Zixi and reported to them.

"Qi Qi Xiao Wangye, Princess Xiao, my subordinates found a few big wooden boxes in the backyard of Zhao Mansion, I don't know what they contain, and I ask Xiao Wang Ye and Princess Xiao to decide!"

Saying that, the guard asked the people to carry the big wooden boxes in front of Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi.

Xiao Jingcong and Yan Zixi glanced at each other, looked at each other and smiled, and then Yan Zixi spoke again: "Lord Wang, what do you say this big wooden box will contain?" ”

"Hehe, this king doesn't know, isn't Lord Zhao here, this king thinks you should ask Lord Zhao in person, right?" After speaking, Xiao Jingcong also glanced meaningfully at Zhao Rushen, whose complexion had already changed greatly, "Lord Zhao, are you right?" ”

Zhao Rushen immediately sweated like rain when he heard this, and hurriedly defended himself, "Lord Xiao, you are wronged!" There are never any big wooden boxes in Xiaguan's backyard! These boxes are not from the lower officials, please check the prince! ”

"Oh? Do you realize that my guards have wronged you and are going to frame you? Xiao Jingcong's tone suddenly became cold, and Zhao Rushen fell to his knees as soon as his feet were weak.

"Don't dare, don't dare! How dare Xia Guan question Prince Xiao's guards...... It's just that these big wooden boxes really don't belong to the lower officials! ”

Xiao Jingcong snorted coldly, stood up, and grinned: "Lord Zhao, you don't even know what is in this box, can you assert that this box is not yours?" ”

Saying that, Xiao Jingcong instructed the guard again: "Come on, go and let the people outside in, and let them witness what is in this box here!" ”

"Yes!" The guard clenched his fists and immediately turned and walked towards the door.

When Zhao Rushen saw it, he hurriedly tried to dissuade him, "No! Lord, don't do it! ”

"Why not? Lord Zhao, you said that this box is not yours, are you still afraid that this king will open it in front of those people? If this king is not in front of those people, how can he give them an explanation, and how can he return your innocence to Lord Zhao? ”

"This ......" Zhao Rushen was speechless by Xiao Jingcong's words, and he didn't know how to refute it at all. Standby station

Soon, the guards led the people outside the gate of the mansion to come in in a swarm, and the family members of the Zhao Mansion had the previous experience, where would they dare to stop it again. What's more, Xiao Jingcong is now in the Zhao Mansion, and they won't want to be scolded anymore.

When the victims saw the big wooden boxes on the ground, they immediately shouted and cursed with indignation.

"Dog officer, this keeps saying that you were wronged, so how to explain these boxes found now?!"

"Yes, Lord Wang, open the box and see what's inside!"

"Unboxing! Unboxing ......"

When Xiao Jingcong heard everyone's words, he waved his hand and motioned for everyone to calm down first.

"Don't worry, this box will naturally be opened, and Lord Zhao will open it himself!" Saying that, Xiao Jingcong turned his head to look at Zhao Rushen and snorted, "Lord Zhao, everyone is here, please!" ”

At this moment, Zhao Rushen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and the cold sweat on his forehead was dripping down in big drops.

Xiao Jingcong has a life, he doesn't dare to disobey, but who knows what is in this big wooden box, if it is really those stolen silver, then he can't wash it even if he jumps into the Yellow River.

Zhao Rushen's eyes were purring, desperately thinking of a solution.

Xiao Jingcong saw that Zhao Rushen was stunned in place, and he didn't act for a long time, so he urged in his mouth.

"What's the matter, Lord Zhao, why don't you do it yet? Do you want this king to open the box by himself? Xiao Jingcong's face was gloomy, not angry but threatening.

Zhao Rushen hurriedly gave up his hand and answered, "Don't dare!" How dare you bother Lord Xiao, the lower official...... Xiaguan will unpack the ......"

Zhao Rushen reluctantly walked to the big wooden box, stretched out his trembling old hands, and touched the mouth of the box.

Gently opened the lid of a large wooden box, and suddenly the white and shaking people couldn't open their eyes.

The official silver of the snowflakes shines brightly in the sunlight, and the light is dazzling!

Zhao Rushen was even more frightened when he saw those official silvers, and he lay on the ground, his face was frightened, and his eyes were scattered and muttered there, "It's over, it's over, it's all over......"

It turned out that these big wooden boxes were all sent by Xiao Jingcong secretly arranged for Hei Feng, and the official silver contained in them were all those disaster relief stolen silver in the secret room of the county government of Chen County's order, and each ingot of silver had a cast on it.

Xiao Jingcong walked over, picked up a silver ingot casually, and pretended to check it: "Yucheng was cast in June of the twenty-seventh year...... This is the disaster relief money that the imperial court has just minted! ”

Xiao Jingcong deliberately raised his voice so that all the onlookers could hear it.

Sure enough, when the people of the disaster learned that the silver contained in these big wooden boxes was the disaster relief money, they all rolled up their sleeves, filled with righteous indignation, and surrounded Zhao Rushen, shouting and begging for explanations.

Xiao Jingcong took advantage of the situation and was furious, pointing at Zhao Rushen and shouting: "Zhao Rushen, you are so bold!" actually embezzled the disaster relief money of the imperial court, come on, take it for me! ”

"Wronged, wronged, lord! These silver coins are not from the lower officials, but someone is framing the lower officials! ”

Zhao Rushen immediately knelt in front of Xiao Jingcong, kowtowed to Xiao Jingcong vigorously, and screamed there with a handful of snot and tears.

"Haha, framed?! Now that the evidence is conclusive, you dare to say that someone has framed you?! Come on, take down Zhao Rushen immediately and send it to Dali Temple for thorough investigation! ”

"Yes!"

The guard hugged his fists and walked in front of Zhao Rushen, preparing to detain Zhao Rushen.

When the people saw this, they leaped for joy.

"Great! It's really a god's eyes, this dog official has finally been punished! ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Xiao is really the master of Qingtian, even this Gyeonggi Mansion Yin can take it, it really makes me admire!"

"Lord Xiao, you must give us an explanation......"

Xiao Jingcong nodded when he heard this, and said loudly to everyone: "Don't worry, everyone, this king will definitely supervise Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate Zhao Rushen, once the evidence is conclusive, he will definitely be severely punished!" ”

When everyone heard Xiao Jingcong say this, they praised him again, and gained a lot of people's hearts.

Yan Zixi was also happy for Xiao Jingcong, but at this time, Zhao Rushen seemed unwilling to be sent to Dali Temple for review, taking advantage of Xiao Jingcong's inattention, he pulled out the guard's long sword before the guards arrested him, directly captured Yan Zixi, and put the sword on his snow-white neck.
