That's as much as 20 million taels!

Fifteen million taels of them were asked by Li Xian to help Wei Wuji, of which half was paid first, and the other half was paid after the matter was completed.

The remaining five million taels were used by others to buy immortal wine.

The guards and maids in the eldest princess's mansion all gathered in the hall to help count the money.

Chu Wushuang and Li Bai were not idle.

It's just that Wei Wuji is in a beautiful place, sitting aside and drinking tea.

Li Xian sat next to Wei Wuji and bowed, "Brother Wei, what is that matter...... I'm going to ask you..."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"

Wei Wuji nodded, and then pretended to whisper, "However, you have to keep it a secret for me, this kind of thing must not be publicized." ”

"I understand below."

Li Xian nodded, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

It's all in plain sight...

........

........

Everyone was happily counting the silver taels.

Wei Wuji and Li Xian chatted first.

It didn't take a while.

Outside the courtyard, there was a shout: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Emperor Chu rarely left the palace.

For decades, he was in the palace, handling government affairs.

Hearing this shout, everyone present was stunned.

Li Xian's face suddenly changed greatly, and he hurriedly said, "It's not good, the emperor is here."

Ah...

It's all my fault, I should have come over at night, how could I send money in broad daylight?

Isn't this looking for death......"

Li Bai hurriedly walked over and whispered in his ear: "My lord, Your Majesty is here." ”

"Don't worry, steady!"

Wei Wuji knew that he hadn't done anything bad, so what was there to be afraid of?

All this money has to be handed over to the state treasury.

He doesn't hide a single thing.

Emperor Chu is here, what can he do?

"Get ready to take over."

Wei Wuji took the people in the living room out of the lobby and stood in the courtyard in a proper manner.

Emperor Chu's carriage stopped when it drove outside, leading a large group of people in.

Among them, there are the crown prince Chu Ji and the general Wang Dafu.

"So he's messing around..."

Seeing Chu Ji present, Wei Wuji probably understood the reason in his heart.

It is estimated that Chu Ji already knows about what he and Li Xian are planning.

This time, the silver was transported to trade, and it was just right to catch it.

It's a pity...

How did Chu Ji know that everything was instructed by Emperor Chu.

Wei Wuji is just running errands.

No matter how much he complains, no matter how ironclad the evidence is, it is completely useless.

"Greetings to the emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

Everyone bowed down.

"Get up." Emperor Chu raised his hand lightly and commanded.

"Your Majesty." The crowd stood up.

At this time, Chu Ji pointed to the living room and immediately shouted: "Father, look at it!"

Before, didn't you believe that the horse would collude with the Southern Jin Dynasty?

Now, Li Xian has sent so much money!

Don't...... Isn't it ironclad!? ”

Emperor Chu didn't know what the crown prince Chu Ji was doing when he pulled him here.

Originally, he thought that he was tired of reviewing the recital, so he went to Wei Wuji for a walk.

It's also nice to have a cup of tea.

But he never expected that all this, it turned out that Chu Ji had premeditated.

He must have known that Li Xian was going to send money to the Eldest Princess's Mansion.

Therefore, Chu Ji pulled him over and caught the stolen goods in person!

Emperor Chu was stunned on the spot, and for a while, he didn't know what to say.

If he asks about the origin of the money, so that Wei Wuji can't come to the stage, he is bound to expose this matter, then the 30 million taels of silver, shouldn't it be in vain?

At least the remaining fifteen million taels, Li Xian will not send them again.

Because once the matter is exposed, there is no need for him to send money.

If he didn't ask about the origin of the money, he wouldn't be able to explain it to the ministers.

In this way, it will make Li Xian even more suspicious.

No matter how he reacted now, he would be in a passive position, and he would suddenly become riding south.

Emperor Chu was very angry in his heart, but he couldn't attack.

Not to mention how uncomfortable he is now......

But Chu Ji, this guy, still can't understand the eyes.

He continued to point to the living room.

As if he was afraid that others wouldn't hear it, Chu Ji shouted loudly again: "Father, Wei Wuji's collusion with the Southern Jin Dynasty is already ironclad evidence!"

Please ask your father to see and punish him immediately! ”

"This..."

Emperor Chu was stunned for most of the day, but he couldn't squeeze a word out of his mouth, and he was still in a state of stunned.

Everyone next to him raised their hearts to their throats.

Especially Li Xian.

It is a fact that he colluded with Wei Wuji, and he personally sent this money, which can be regarded as ironclad.

If Emperor Chu must be investigated, he will definitely be unable to escape death!

"Hahaha..."

Wei Wuji suddenly burst out laughing, immediately stepped forward, and said happily, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is laughing."

How can this money be stolen?

This is the deposit paid in advance by the Southern Jin Kingdom to buy fairy wine from us.

My father left this matter to me.

However, I didn't worry about the people in the workshop, so I asked the envoys of the Southern Jin Dynasty to send the money to the Horse Mansion.

After waiting for the inventory, it will be sent to the workshop and delivered to a batch of immortal wine in the Southern Jin Dynasty.

If you don't believe me...

Wait...... You can go to the workshop with me and take a trip! ”

"You... You quibble! Chu Ji was immediately furious.

Pointing at Wei Wuji, he was like a river for a while, and his mouth was dirty: "My people have already been found out early in the morning."

You and the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty..."

"Shut up!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Emperor Chu hurriedly shouted to stop Chu Ji.

Once the latter words come out, then, things will become very difficult.

No matter what he does, it will arouse the suspicion of the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty.

Tens of millions of taels, and it will be in the soup in an instant.

"Father..."

Chu Ji is still not giving up.

Emperor Chu snorted coldly, brushed his sleeves and said angrily: "The reason why you came to your sister's mansion is to see Wuji and the Southern Jin Dynasty do business?"

Do you know how busy I am every day?

How many folds do you have to review each day? ”

"Erchen..."Chu Ji was immediately dumbfounded.

He opened his mouth and was about to say something, when he was immediately glared at by Emperor Chu.

"Needless to say, I believe in Mowgli!"

Emperor Chu waved his hand and said, "Isn't it the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty, send the money to the mansion to count?"

In front of everyone's eyes, your sister is also here, is it possible...... Will Mowgli still swallow it privately? ”

Emperor Chu hurriedly pulled the topic aside.

But he didn't say a word about Wei Wuji's collusion with the Southern Jin Dynasty.

"You have framed Mowgli many times before, but when you are ignorant, you don't care.

If you dare to do nonsense again in the future...

I will not be spared! ”

Emperor Chu didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and shouted angrily at Chu Sheng, the chief eunuch behind him: "Come on, take the prince away for me, and be grounded in the East Palace!"

He is not allowed to come out without my will! ”

"Yes."

Chu Sheng immediately called a few Imperial Forest Soldiers and forcibly took Chu Ji away.

"Father, what the son said is true, Wei Wuji him..."

Chu Ji was still shouting.

Chu Sheng took out a silk handkerchief from his arms and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Suddenly, there was only a whining sound.

In the yard.

Wei Wuji still looked confident.

Li Xian was frightened.

In the middle of winter, his face was covered with sweat.

"Wuji, you have always been sensible, and I will leave the affairs of the army and the wine industry to you, and I can rest assured.

The Prince's words...

You have the right not to hear.

I won't believe him a word. ”

Emperor Chu pretended to make a face, staring at Wei Wuji and smiling.

In this way, Li Jin was even more convinced that he really believed in Wei Wuji.

Military power, business, etc., are all in charge of Wei Wuji.

And he didn't know anything.

"Father Xie trusts."

Thanking him back, Wei Wuji thought in his heart that Emperor Chu's reflexes were still very good.

Originally, he was about to get off the stage, but he reversed the situation.

The most important thing is that he got Chu Ji away.

Without this scourge, a lot of trouble will be saved.

"This is the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty?"

Emperor Chu looked at Li Xian and asked Wei Wuji.

"Yes, Father."

Wei Wuji replied, "The Southern Jin Dynasty is full of sincerity in order to buy immortal wine.

not only made a deposit, but also asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to escort him.

This is rare among all nations.

Erchen thought that our goods should be given priority to the Southern Jin Dynasty to show the goodwill of the two countries. ”

Li Xian calmed down his mood, and immediately followed Wei Wuji and bowed his hand slightly: "Li Xian greets Your Majesty." ”

"No courtesy."

Emperor Chu didn't have any extra words, nodded, and said to Wei Wuji: "Wuji, you can decide for yourself about the wine industry."

I still have a lot of pieces to review.

I went back to the palace first. ”

"Father finally came here, don't you go in and sit?" The eldest princess Chu Wushuang said with a smile.

"No... Drive back to the palace. ”

Emperor Chu knows the truth that 'if you say too much, you will lose'.

He didn't want to stay here any longer.

Leave everything to Wei Wuji, just wait for the letter.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty (Father)..."

Wei Wuji led the people in the courtyard and sent the Chu Emperor's carriage away.
