Fifty, flattered

Now the other officials and rice shop guys are dumbfounded, five hundred taels, this is not a small amount for them.

Now they were all red-eyed, Tong Qixi smiled proudly, very good, this is the effect they want.

Xiao Yueyue's starry eyes always remained on Tong Qixi's body, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he maintained a smile that seemed to be nothing.

Tong Qixi turned around, brushed his forehead, squatted down and asked Liu Shiquan, "Okay, it's time for this princess to ask you." ”

Liu Shiquan looked up at Tong Qixi, he now knew that this Princess Ling was not good at all.

"Liu Shiquan, this princess asked you, where did all the rice you gave Zhang Fushun come from?" , Tong Qixi looked at Liu Shiquan and asked.

Liu Shiquan was there, gritted his teeth, and didn't seem to be ready to answer.

Tong Qixi held a handful of soil on Liu Shiquan's head, and said softly: "Liu Shiquan, you have to think about the answer, otherwise, if the soil of this spade falls, you will really never have the day, but then again, this princess has never seen anyone buried alive, I heard that this person was buried alive, and he will not die immediately, so this princess thought, this soil has buried people, and you can't breathe fresh air, how uncomfortable do you say?" I don't know how long it will take to die, but this princess really wants to see it. ”。

After speaking, Tong Qixi glanced at the official on the side, and the official directly shoveled a shovel of soil and fell down.

Then Tong Qixi turned around and drew a silver ticket, but before she could speak, those officials rushed to answer.

"I, I, the princess, I know," a servant rushed directly in front of Tong Qixi.

Tong Qixi smiled slightly, and shook the silver ticket between his fingers, "Okay, then you can answer." ”

The official hurriedly wiped his hands on his clothes, he carefully took the silver ticket from Tong Qixi's hand, and said, "Thank you princess, thank you princess." ”

After reading the denomination on the silver ticket, the official hurriedly put it into the position close to his chest, and said: "Back to the princess, in fact, the rice that Lord Liu gave to Zhang Fushun is all from the imperial court. ”

"Of the imperial court? How do you know it's from the imperial court, you have to tell me carefully. Tong Qixi said.

"Yes, princess, the princess doesn't know, when the drought just occurred in Yuzhou, Liu Shiquan asked his brother-in-law who opened a cloth village to sell rice, and this rice was taken out of the official grain depot, and this Fushun was sold several times higher than the price of rice.

"Really?" , Tong Qixi asked.

"Back to the princess, what the villain said is true, the brothers can testify, and the villain has heard that the imperial court has allocated disaster relief food, but the people of Yuzhou have not received disaster relief food, so the villain guesses that this disaster relief food is not good and let them sell it."

Tong Qixi looked at the other officials and asked, "What he said is true." ”

Some of the other officials were silent, some nodded, and some said: "The little one has also heard that the imperial court pulled out the relief grain, but we really haven't seen the relief grain." ”

Tong Qixi nodded thoughtfully.

She suddenly turned to look at Zhang Fushun.

Zhang Fushun's face was full of embarrassment, he had already been frightened by Tong Qixi, and hurriedly pleaded and said: "Princess, princess, do you have anything to ask the villain, you ask, you ask, villain, villain must all answer truthfully, answer truthfully." ”

Tong Qixi smiled slightly, this is what he wants.

Tong Qixi squatted down and patted Zhang Fushun's head, "Are you very smart?" ”

Zhang Fushun squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying, looked at Tong Qixi and said: "Hehe, as long as the princess spares the villain and does not bury the villain alive, the villain must know everything and say everything." ”

Tong Qixi nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, then you can say it!" ”

"Wang ...... Princess, what do you want to know? ”

'Smack'

Tong Qixi patted Zhang Fushun's head heavily, and said angrily: "Just now, this princess praised you for being smart, why are you stupid now?" Of course, it means that you and Liu Shiquan colluded to steal and sell grain from the government treasury and disaster relief grain. ”

After listening to this, Zhang Fushun tilted his head and looked at Liu Shiquan.

"Smack", again.

"What do you see him doing? Look at this princess, what? Do you want to be buried here alive with him? Tong Qixi narrowed his eyes slightly and frightened Zhang Fushun.

Alas, don't say it, this trick really works, Zhang Fushun was frightened and hurriedly said: "Say, say, the villain says it all, all say it." ”

Zhang Fushun fell into memories and said.

"Three years ago, Yuzhou began to have a drought, the people of Yuzhou have no harvest, this meal is not enough to eat where I still have business in this cloth village, until one day, my sister said let me go to Liufu to eat, said that it was my brother-in-law, just, on Liu Shiquan, Liu Shiquan has a profitable business to let me do, I heard this and went, after I went, Liu Shiquan said let me close the cloth village and change to sell rice, said with me three seven accounts, I three, he seven."

"Then do you know where all this rice came from?" , Tong Qixi asked.

"All of them are the government's treasury grain, and there are ......", Zhang Fushun swallowed.

"Say!" , Tong Qixi was furious.

Zhang Fushun hurriedly continued: "Also, there is the disaster relief food they said later. Zhang Fushun became more and more unconfident.

"They don't know, how do you know it's disaster relief food?" , Tong Qixi pointed to the group of officials and asked.

Zhang Fushun said hesitantly: "Because, because every time the imperial court sends someone to send disaster relief food, he, he asks me to take someone to become a government servant, go, go to the outside of the city to receive food, so they don't know." ”

"And your guys know about it, right?" , Tong Qixi asked.

Zhang Fushun did not speak.

Tong Qixi turned his head to look at the five people, and continued to ask, "Then how many silver taels have you bought in the past three years?" Where does this money go? ”

Zhang Fushun hesitated for a moment and replied: "This money, I left my share of the rest and handed it over to Liu Shiquan, I don't know how much money I bought, no, but I have, I have bookkeeping, my account book is in the store, all in the store." ”

Xiao Yuyue glanced at the entourage beside him, and the entourage hugged his fist and went to Zhangjia Rice Shop to find the account book that Zhang Fushun said.

Tong Qixi looked at Shaoze, "Did you write down what he just said?" ”

"Not a word." , Shaoze Road.

"Very well, dig him out and let him sign it."

Saying that, Tong Qixi walked towards the five rice shop guys, "You and others pretend to be official officials to help the court to sell disaster relief grain for the abuse and theft, and take them down for me." ”。

Soon, several people were controlled by Xiao Liyue's entourage.

Zhang Fushun was also dug up by two officials, brought to Shaoze and signed and drawn.

Tong Qixi took the confession and looked at it, then handed it to Shaoze, and said, "Put this confession away." ”

Then he said to several officials: "Tie him up for me." ”

"The king, the princess, the little ones have all been recruited, you, you spare the small ones, spare the small ones." , Zhang Fushun begged for mercy while being tied up with a rope by the officials.

Tong Qixi turned to look at Liu Shiquan and said, "Liu Shiquan, this Zhang Fushun has already been recruited, what's the matter?" Still don't you want to say it? ”

Zhang Fushun looked at Tong Qixi, and stopped talking.

"Alright then!" , Tong Qixi turned around and said, "Since you don't want to say it, then the princess can only go to your house to search for it." ”

After that, Tong Qixi said to a group of officials and Xiao Yueyue's two entourages: "You, and you, give me a good look at them here, and the others will go to Liu Shi's house with the princess." ”

Xiao Liyue watched Tong Qixi walk in front of him, Xiao Liyue followed, and whispered to Tong Qixi: "Tong Qixi, you are quite handy in calling the king's entourage?" ”

Tong Qixi came back directly and said with a roll of his eyes: "Xiao Yue, I am now using your identity as Princess Ling to handle the case, and when the time comes, where will your emperor Lao Tzu go, isn't this credit still on your King Ling's head?" So, don't be so stingy, don't you just use the hands of the two of you, the emperor will reward you in the future, don't forget my benefactor. As he spoke, Tong Qixi also patted Xiao Yueyue with his backhand.

"Huh." , Xiao Yueyue smiled softly, "In this way, this king still has to thank the princess?" ”

Tong Qixi put on a proud little gesture, "It's not!" ”

Xiao Liyue looked at Tong Qixi speechlessly, okay, when he met such a sharp-toothed and troubled woman, he admitted it.

————

After a while, Tong Qixi led people to the gate of Liufu.

"Who are you, do you know what this place is? Before my lord returns, you should hurry up and let me out. ”

In the courtyard of Liufu, Liu Shiquan's husband and wife stopped Tong Qixi and others, and she looked at Tong Qixi and others with arrogance.

Tong Qixi directly raised his hand and waved away Liu Shiquan's wife.

Tong Qixi looked at Mrs. Liu and asked, "Your master?" Are you talking about Liu Shiquan? ”

"Bold, you dare to call my lord by his name."

Tong Qixi didn't get angry and smiled at her, "Mrs. Liu doesn't know yet, I'm afraid this Liu Shiquan won't be able to come back, because he has already let people bury him alive." ”

"Nonsense! My lord is too guarded, who dares to bury him alive. ”

Tong Qixi pointed at himself and said, "Isn't it Miss Ben!" ”

"You fart! Where did the yellow-haired girl come from, she dared to spread wild in my Liufu, and when my lord came back, I will definitely ask him to put you in prison. Mrs. Liu was a little angry

At this time, Xiao Liyue walked over, he smiled at Tong Qixi, and said, "No, you are not Miss Tong of the Zhenguo General's Mansion now, you are now my Ling Princess of Ling Wang's Mansion." ”

Xiao Yueyue's smile actually stunned Tong Qixi, but it was not stunned by his charming smile, and his smile just now actually made Tong Qixi a little flattered.

Ling ...... Princess Ling? Mrs. Liu was a little speechless in surprise.
