Chapter 64: The Ghost Lingers

"This chick is really haunted!" After Luo Hui returned to the mansion, there were words in his mouth.

"What a chick, Luo Hui, did you go out to dip the flowers and grass?"

Princess Changping also followed after discovering the situation, and overheard a sentence and was very angry.

"Why, I've been staying in the house for the past few days!" Luo Hui thought about it, but it was better not to tell her, lest she worry.

"Hmph, you are a very attentive person, even my father knows about it in the capital!"

Luo Hui: "Princess, can you not hold me back, I want to think about another very important thing!" ”

Princess Changping asked curiously, "What's the matter?" ”

What does that Gao Xianglan want to do with a crossbow arrow in her hand? Assassinate the princess or assassinate me! No, none of us are within range of a crossbow.

"She's going to kill Yu Min!" Luo Hui suddenly thought in his mind: "Why is she willing to take such a big risk to kill a maid?" ”

Luo Hui's mind kept turning, and Princess Changping looked at him, not knowing what bad ideas he thought of again.

Luo Hui had a faint feeling in his heart that since Gao Xianglan wanted to kill Yu Min, then Yu Min must know something.

He asked people to bring Yu Min, Yu Min had just been dressed with medicine on his back, and when he wanted to salute Luo Hui, he was stopped by her.

"Thank you for your kindness!"

If it weren't for Luo Hui's special order to torture her back, she would only be afraid of being hurt even more seriously.

Luo Hui: "Don't thank me, your cousin is so hateful!" ”

At the mention of her cousin, Yu Min was about to cry, she didn't expect her only relative to treat her like this!

"My lord, I don't know what you did when you called the people's daughter!"

"There is indeed an important matter, you tell you in detail about the matter that Mrs. Wei asked you to poison the military household that day, from beginning to end, it is best not to omit anything!"

Yu Min: "Yes, my lord, that afternoon, Madame called a group of us maids to the backyard, and then distributed arsenic to us, panicked that it was an anesthetic, and asked us to pour wine and give it to those military households. A senior sister reminded us that it might be poison, and we were all scared, and after trying it with a dog, we found out that it was really poison. Sister Gao said let's change it to anesthetic, anyway, what Mrs. said is also anesthetic! ”

As soon as he heard this, Luo Hui couldn't help but interrupt her: "When did that sister Gao be in the mansion and what does she look like?" ”

"I only heard that she seems to be from Mrs. Wei's hometown, she has just been here for a day or two, and she is very beautiful, and we can't compare to her!"

This so-called Sister Gao is really Gao Xianglan, she blended into the house, and she didn't know what bad things she was planning!

"You continue?"

Yu Min: "After we drank the anesthetic medicine to the soldiers, they were all numb, and Sister Gao persuaded us to leave the government and find a way out. ”

"It's really calculating!" At this moment, Luo Hui finally understood Gao Xianglan's purpose, she might have wanted to do something to the Zhao'an team. Because of Liu Qingsong's family plan, she shifted her target to the salary in the government.

If so much money was robbed by her and brought to King Chuang, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Knowing the enemy's purpose, it is much easier to deal with it again. Luo Hui had already formed a preliminary idea in his mind.

Yu Min looked at Luo Hui pondering, and couldn't help asking, "My lord, is there anything else?" ”

Luo Hui shook his head: "It's okay, you go back and rest first!" ”

Three days later, the Jinyi guards and soldiers who were responsible for refunding their homes returned to Baoding Mansion one after another, and they searched the accounts of those magistrates, and after the refunds, they added up to more than 300,000 taels!

It is conceivable that if you don't refund half of it, if you don't refund this year's salary, it will be seven or eight hundred thousand taels, and the magistrates of only ten counties are greedy for so much silver!

Today, Luo Hui has confiscated nearly 800,000 taels of dirty silver in Baoding Mansion. For this money, he killed a prefect, seven prefects, a thousand households, and a cadre of people, all of whom were sentenced to beheading!

Add in the 150,000 taels donated by the people, almost a million silver!

Luo Hui decided to transport all this silver to the camp of Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, and only if he won the battle, it would be easy to recruit An!

Han Zikang, the former magistrate of Changshan County, came to Baoding with his family to serve as the acting prefect, which can be described as a step to the sky!

Now that the prefect of Baoding is there, and the Liao salary has been retired, Luo Hui and his party seem to have no reason to stay still.

No, they have another reason, and that is Princess Changping.

Luo Hui resolutely disagreed to take her with him, but unfortunately the princess insisted on following. Even if she is forced to stay in Baoding Mansion, no one can suppress her, maybe she is running around again, and she doesn't know what is going on!

The current Ming Dynasty is not peaceful, the princess is very naΓ―ve, and Gao Xianglan, the sister of the anti-king, is ready to bite at any time. Luo Hui really didn't worry about leaving her in Baoding!

I don't know if the emperor really forgot his baby daughter, and he didn't mention Princess Changping for so long!

In desperation, I can only take her with me, and I feel more at ease with her!

Leaving Baoding Mansion this time, Luo Hui took away 800,000 taels of silver as military salary, and the rest was put into the treasury for the acting prefect Han Zikang.

For the sake of insurance, this trip brought a hundred soldiers to defend the city to escort the silver!

In front of the palace, countless people came to see them off. shouted at Lord Qingtian and asked him not to go, but Wan Bi was moved.

Before leaving, the people gave them a gift - a box of tokens.

"My lord, with these tokens, you don't have to worry about running out of them anymore!"

Wan Bi put down the token in his hand, looked at the gift in his hand, and couldn't laugh or cry.

However, seeing that Luo Hui had nothing in his hand, he unconsciously balanced a little, and even shook the token, wanting to show off.

Luo Hui and the others rode horses, and the princess sat in the carriage. It was followed by a hundred heavily armed soldiers in three wagons, each with four large boxes strapped to them.

From the Baoding Mansion to the outside of the city gate, heavy carriages creaked, pressing several rutted marks on the dirt road.

The people of Baoding Mansion watched the large team leave on the sidelines, and Gao Xianglan hid in the crowd.

The people looked at the big boxes and discussed:

"What are those boxes in, so heavy!"

"It can't be silver, so much, right?"

"No, how can Lord Qingtian be a corrupt official, besides, who would swagger to transport silver in broad daylight?"

"That's right, I seem to have heard someone in the house say that it's Princess Changping's luggage!"

"Nonsense, how could Princess Changping come to our Baoding, isn't she in the palace?"

"It's really no nonsense, someone saw Lord Qingtian kneel down for her to say goodbye!"
