The autumn colors are a little more intense.

Somewhere in Chang'an City.

It's very secluded, and the surrounding area is very barren, and there are almost no people.

And in this deserted house, several people were sitting and drinking.

Wine is the best drunken beauty, and food is the most popular side dish nowadays.

"Okay, it's so cool, I've never seen money come in so quickly."

"Who says it's not, it's really cool to exchange fake money for real money."

"We still have a lot to change, after these few drinks, let's go again, with the money, tonight we ............ Hey, you can do something more meaningful. ”

Everyone else knows what the more meaningful thing is, after all, as men, what else they don't understand?

A few people laughed, and then drank again.

In such a late autumn season, it is better to get drunk with beauty.

A few people were in good spirits.

But just as they were drinking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside, and they looked at each other, frowning slightly, and just as they were about to speak, a group of officials suddenly kicked open the door and rushed in.

"It's not good, it's been discovered."

"How could this be, how could someone from the imperial court find it?"

The few of them were a little confused, they didn't understand what was going on, and when they were confused, Ma Zhou had already surrounded them.

"You are really bold, you dare to privately make counterfeit money, disrupt the stability of the Tang Dynasty, come here, and arrest all these people."

The official was about to make a move, and these few people knew that they were not opponents, so they hurriedly shouted: "Wronged, really wronged, we dare to make counterfeit money privately, there is no one thing, you want to arrest us, you have to have evidence, right?" ”

Where they privately made counterfeit coins, and those counterfeit coins were hidden very hidden, they were gambling, and they couldn't find any evidence of that.

Without evidence, what can Ma Zhou do to them?

After they shouted like this, Ma Zhou snorted coldly.

"Evidence? If you want real evidence, then the official will find it for you. ”

As he spoke, Ma Zhou waved his hand, and soon someone rushed in with a few police dogs.

"Search for me."

At the sound of an order, those police dogs immediately scattered to look for them, and when they saw that Ma Zhou had brought all the police dogs, their faces suddenly turned pale.

They have been in Chang'an City for a long time, and they have also heard about the power of Datang police dogs, and the police dogs have been dispatched, so it shouldn't be difficult to find out their things, right?

They started to get nervous and scared.

And at this time, a servant quickly ran out: "My lord found it, there is a crypt under that room, and after opening it, there is immediately a mold of privately made copper coins, and there are many fake copper coins......"

The evidence was found, Ma Zhou glanced at those people, and the few people who were originally very peaceful suddenly moved at this time.

Counterfeiting money is a capital offense, and if they escape now, they may have a chance to live.

However, Ma Zhou had already guarded against them, and just when they were about to escape, the officials next to him immediately rushed over, and within a few clicks, they were all arrested.

"Keep your mouth alive, this matter is deep."

It's just that these few of them don't dare to do such a deal, in Ma Zhou's opinion, or in Qin Tian's opinion, the people behind the scenes are only afraid of being ambitious and powerful, after all, the mold is not something that anyone can get.

In this case, they still need to know more clues from these people's mouths.

After catching these people, Ma Zhou sent someone to find all those molds, fake copper coins and so on and take them away, and then he hurriedly entered the palace and presented himself to Li Shimin.

Although at this time, the case is not completely solved, but he can be regarded as solving one thing, he has to enter the palace to make Li Shimin feel a little more at ease.

The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.

When Li Shimin heard that Ma Zhou was coming, his expression couldn't help but move slightly: "Let him come in." ”

After a while, Ma Zhou rushed in from outside.

"Shengshang, the den of the privately made copper coins and the remaining copper coins have been found, and Wechen has arrested a few people............"

Ma Zhou told Li Shimin about the situation, and after Li Shimin heard it, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "I found it like this?" ”

He was a little incredulous, but Ma Zhou's method was indeed exquisite.

"Okay, okay, after catching these people and seizing those fake copper coins, this matter can finally be safely over."

Ma Zhou smiled bitterly and said, "Holy Lord, I just seized those fake copper coins, and the whole thing is not over yet." ”

"Oh, it's not over yet?"

Ma Zhou nodded and said: "I'm afraid that there are still people behind the scenes, and my Datang's current copper coins are too easy to counterfeit, we must reform the currency system, otherwise if we catch this time, there will be people copying them later, so won't we have to keep busy?" ”

Li Shimin is a smart person, Ma Zhou said it so simply, he quickly understood.

"That's right, okay, I'll leave this matter to you to deal with, and I must find out the people behind the scenes, by the way, you said to reform the currency system, how to reform?"

"Make a new copper coin, and it has to be something that no one else can make."

After the fall of the Sui Dynasty, the copper coins of the Tang Dynasty were immediately replaced by the copper coins of their Tang Dynasty, however, the change here is to change the words on the copper coins, not the material of the copper coins.

But listening to Ma Zhou's meaning, he wanted to change the material of the copper coin.

Hearing this, Li Shimin's expression moved slightly, and then he asked again, Ma Zhou here, told Li Shimin all the words that Qin Tian said before leaving, including what kind of copper coins to exchange for, recommend Zhang Shusheng, etc., and told Li Shimin.

After Li Shimin listened, he fell into deep thought.

Changing the material of the copper coin is a big deal, and he must not be sloppy at will, and he must think carefully before he can make a decision.

If you make a hasty decision, there will be some very bad consequences.

Li Shimin didn't decide this matter immediately, he asked Ma Zhou to be busy first, he had to think about it again, Ma Zhou also knew that this was a big deal, so he nodded and responded.

He was going to ask the prisoners and find out who was behind them.

And just when Ma Zhou left the palace to inquire about the prisoners, the news had already reached Li Yuanjing's mansion.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang, something is wrong, our people have been arrested, it is all that Ma Zhou, he designed to arrest our people............"

Li Yuanjing was originally glad that they had exchanged fake money for real money, but when he suddenly heard the news, he was suddenly stunned.
