Seeing the little guy slip away, several people looked at each other and smiled, and a few people here took Wang Hao to see the silver, but suddenly heard a neat pace coming from the small courtyard coming this way.

Wang Hao is a child of the official family, so he naturally knows what this voice is, this is the footsteps of the patrolmen, Wang Hao was happy in his heart, and began to act desperately, as long as he attracted the patrols, he would be saved.

He could say that this group of people broke into the house and robbed, and sure enough, the patrol came, Wang Hao's eyes were full of pride, and the twenty people divided into two teams and rushed in directly.

Wang Hao looked at the eyes of the four people, as if he was looking at a dead person, who knows, before he finished being proud, he heard someone say: "Please in the prince." ”

Wang Hao suddenly felt a panic in his heart, Lord Wang, now besides King Wen, can there be that prince? What is this King Wen doing in his small courtyard if he has nothing to do? After saying this, several people saw a white figure walk in.

is still so gentle and elegant, but the words that come out are ruthless and resolute: "Come on, arrest them all." ”

Wang Hao thought that King Wen was here to save him, and his eyes were full of joy, but a few people from the 'Holy Hand' hurriedly said: "Slow, although you are the prince, you can't arrest people for no reason." ”

Qi Hongxin looked at a few people and said, "This king is here for official business, who are you?" ”

The four of them hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "See the prince, we are the first gambling and visiting 'holy hand' thugs in the capital, and we are just here to get the silver today, we are all good citizens who abide by the law, and please ask King Wen to investigate." ”

Without the restraint of a few people, Wang Hao directly took the cloth stuffed in his mouth, crawled to Qi Hongxin's feet sadly, and cried: "Lord Wang, don't believe these people, these people are robbers, and they are here to rob me of money." ”

When the four of them heard Wang Hao say this, they also hurriedly explained: "Lord, it is this prince who owes money in our gambling visit and doesn't want to give it, so we brought him over to get the money, and he is definitely not the robber he said." ”

When Wang Hao heard this, he continued: "Lord, believe me, what I said is true, Lord Wang, don't be blinded by this group of traitors." ”

Qi Hongxin asked, "Who are you?" ”

Wang Hao hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, the villain is just a small person, it's normal that you don't know the prince, but the villain's father is the king of the household, the prince, you should know my father, right?" ”

Qi Hongxin only knew, oh, and asked, "You are Wang Hao, the second son of Lord Wang?" ”

Wang Hao was happy in his heart, it turned out that the prince knew him, wasn't it, he could have more friendship with King Wen in the future? In this way, to see if his father will say that he is incompetent, Wang Hao is so happy when he thinks of this.

But I heard Qi Hongxin say: "Come on, take Wang Hao away for me." ”

was held by the officers and soldiers, Wang Hao still couldn't understand, he thought it was Qi Hongxin who made a mistake, so he desperately explained to Qi Hongxin: "Lord Wang, you caught the wrong person, they are the robbers, you... What are you doing with me, I'm a good person, did you catch the wrong one? ”

Qi Hongxin smiled: "Catch the mistake? No, this king just found out that your prince misappropriated 150,000 taels of silver, so this king came to you on purpose, and now it seems that this prince embezzled the silver money to go to the capital for the first gambling visit? ”

Wang Hao was so frightened that his whole face turned white, and he stammered: "Lord Wang, you... Isn't it... Got it wrong? Where does the villain dare to move the silver of the user department, it is all royal silver, and ten cowardly villains will not dare to give the villain. ”

Qi Hongxin smiled and said: "Have you wronged you, this king will let people go in and take a look." ”

Wang Hao is still very confident in this, his silver is won back from the 'Holy Hand', and the official silver has an official seal, so Wang Hao is not panicked at all about this.

Qi Hongxin called two people to go in and search, and Qi Hongxin asked, "A few of you, can you tell this king how much this prince owes you?" ”

Several people said: "Lord, the prince owes us 150,000 taels of silver, and he asked us to come back and get it from him." ”

Wang Hao immediately explained: "Lord Wang, the villain did lose 150,000 taels, and the villain does have silver here, but it will definitely not be the villain's corruption." ”

Qi Hongxin said disapprenously: "Oh... Since it wasn't corruption, how did it come about? ”

Wang Hao thought for a moment and said: "Lord Wang, this is because my father saw that the villain was about to get married, so he gave the villain's private money." ”

Qi Hongxin said with a smile: "Oh, this Lord Wang's family is really rich, this king and a prince can't take out the 150,000 taels of silver, this Lord Wang can come up with so much money for the marriage of the second son, this king is quite envious." ”

Wang Hao knew that he had said the wrong thing, so he slapped himself in the mouth and said, "Lord Wang, it was the villain who said the wrong thing..."

Qi Hongxin didn't bother to listen to this person's defense, and said directly: "Shut up, when the time comes to see my father, there is a chance for you to defend." ”

After a while, the person who went to search came back, still holding a box of silver in his hand, and said to Qi Hongxin: "Lord Wang, my subordinates found 150,000 taels of silver in a guest room, and my subordinates checked it, and it was indeed the 150,000 taels of silver that were missing from the household." ”

Wang Hao immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "Lord Wang, the villain is wronged, this silver belongs to a friend of the villain who lives here, and it is the villain's friend who won the silver in the 'holy hand', how can it be what kind of official silver?" Lord Wang, you must be mistaken. ”

Qi Hongxin directly took out two ingots of silver from the box, looked at it and said with a smile: "The evidence is here, since Wang Gongzi still doesn't admit it, then this king will convince you." ”

Qi Hongxin took the bottom of the two ingots of silver to Wang Hao to see, Wang Hao saw that on the two ingots of silver, there was an obvious official seal, and he was so frightened that he fell to the ground, he didn't know, it was obviously ordinary silver, why did it become official silver today?

Qi Hongxin said again: "Since Wang Gongzi said that this is your friend's, then good, come here, go and bring Wang Gongzi's friends out, this king wants to see how Wang Gongzi's friends can have so much official silver." ”

A few more people went, and the small courtyard was so small, so soon, a few people came back.

reported to Qi Hongxin: "Lord Wang, the subordinates have searched the entire courtyard and have not found anyone. ”

Wang Hao was even more shocked, and kept muttering, "How come? How so? Before I left in the morning, they were obviously still here, seven big living people, how could they say that they were gone? ”

Hearing the reply, Qi Hongxin asked Wang Hao: "Prince Wang, where is the friend you are talking about?" Can you tell this king? Since there is none, then it is all for the king to take away. ”

A few people from the 'Holy Hand' begged for mercy: "Lord Wang, we are all innocent, it's a big deal, we don't want any silver, Lord Wang, you have a lot of adults to let us go, right?" ”

Before Qi Hongxin could say anything, he heard a sound outside the door, "What a bold man, he dares to surround the official's private courtyard." ”

Seeing no one and only hearing his voice, Wang Hao heard that this was his father, and immediately felt that there was salvation, as long as his father was there, he would not let him be taken away by King Wen, even if he would be scolded when he went home, it was better than being in prison.

Qi Hongxin stood with his hands tied up in the small courtyard on his back, Lord Wang listened to Wang Hao's little servant, Wang Hao went to gamble and lost a lot of money, and was chased by people and debts to his private courtyard, Lord Wang only felt that this son was not enough to succeed and more than to lose, but he couldn't ignore it, if this was spread out, where would his old face go?

So he came directly with Wang Hao's servant, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the door, he saw Wen Wang Qi Hongxin standing in the small courtyard, and dozens of officers and soldiers were also there, and his son and a few people he didn't know were arrested, which made Lord Wang's heart tighten.

He didn't know what this Wang Hao had done and committed it in the hands of this King Wen, it was really not enough to succeed and more than to lose.

Lord Wang glared at Wang Hao fiercely, and immediately knelt down and asked An Dao: "The minister and the king are courteous, see His Royal Highness King Wen Chitose." ”

Qi Hongxin turned around, looked at Wang Li with a smile, and said, "Lord Wang is so powerful!" ”

Wang Li hurriedly said: "Don't dare, if the lower official knows that it is the prince and you are here, give the lower official ten dares, and the lower official will not dare to say this." ”

Qi Hongxin said: "Lord Wang is timid, but this second prince is a dog. ”

Wang Li's whole person trembled, generally this King Wen doesn't care, this Wang Hao, a useless thing, suddenly committed in his hands, which made Wang Li also a little embarrassed for a while, and stumbled and said: "Lord Wang, I don't know what Xiaguan, an uncompetitive dog, has done to offend the prince?" ”

Qi Hongxin smiled: "Don't be angry? This king looked at the second prince of the king, but he was very angry, and even dared to embezzle the money of the household. ”

Wang Li was shocked: "What, embezzle the silver money of the household department, the prince clearly investigates, although the son of the lower official is really useless, but even if he is given ten guts, he will not dare to embezzle the silver money, Wang Ye, do you see if there is any misunderstanding in this?" ”

Qi Hongxin directly threw the two ingots of silver in his hand in front of Wang Li, and said: "Lord Wang, look at this, but it was searched from the second son's courtyard, a full 150,000 taels, and you still told this king that it was a misunderstanding?" ”

Wang Li picked up the two ingots of silver and looked at them, and his heart instantly became like ashes, and the official seal on it was clearly placed there, which made it useless for him to say anything.

Wang Li got up directly and kicked Wang Hao is fiercely, Qi Hongxin watched a good show, and then gave the soldiers a look, and several soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to pull Wang Li away.

Qi Hongxin said coldly: "Lord Wang, you beat Ling Gongzi like this, how can this king bring people to his father?" When the time comes, my father will still think that this king has tortured him, and how should this king explain, I said, if you beat him to death, this corpse will be brought to his father, and this 150,000 taels of silver is not a small amount. ”
