Ninety percent fake?

Suddenly receiving this report, Xiao Ling only felt ridiculous and couldn't believe it.

In charge of the household department for many years, the family occupies a small area, the nine-story Kuabao Pavilion, the glazed tiles of a water, it is said that there are countless rare treasures, gold and silver treasures are not counted, and the treasures of the Gu Shangshu family are more than ninety percent fake?

For a while, he didn't even care about the plan for drought control handed over by his subordinates, and rushed to the scene of the raid on Shangshufu to see what was going on.

"That's it......" took Xiao Ling to the treasure house of Shangshu Mansion with piles of gold bricks and white jade paving, Lin Qiuran picked up two heavy gold bricks casually, and knocked on it with a bang, and the gold leaf on the surface of the gold bricks was immediately destroyed, revealing a dull inside.

Sniffing, sniffing, grinding the two gold bricks in half, Xiao Ling immediately distinguished: "Lead? ”

Lin Qiuran nodded.

The gold bricks in the vault were stacked neatly and neatly, and they covered an area as big as seven or eight beds...... "All fake?" ”

"Well, pretty much that's pretty much it. The top, and the outermost layer, is sandwiched with a lead core, which is not so easy to distinguish, but it is still fake. It's still those silver ......" Lin Qiuran pointed to the pile of silver bricks that covered a wider area and had more numbers than the gold bricks, "It's basically iron, and it's also wrapped in a layer on the outside." ”

He also refers to other jade, ceramics, spices, medicinal materials, antiques, calligraphy and paintings: "Jade and ceramics are imitated, some are made of inferior jade, some are simply made of white marble, ambergris is musk, sandalwood is agarwood, thousand-year-old ginseng is carved dried radish, and antique calligraphy and painting are almost all imitations......"

"In addition, I also investigated the ruins of the Kuabao Pavilion that you shot yesterday. Judging by the debris and debris, the things are basically fake. ”

Briefly explain the situation. Lin Qiuran introduced Xiao Ling to a man in his fifties with gray hair. The old man with a good bearing: "This is the old man of Tianjing City, who is recognized as the master with the best eyesight, and we can't distinguish some tricks, as long as we ask." ”

Xiao Ling greeted the old worship.

The old worshipper was indignant: "I'll just say it, I'll just say it, Gu Shangshu's things are not authentic!" Several times, his servants secretly took the things of the house to be pawned, and the pawnshop's palm said that it was fake and refused to give it. As a result, he was beaten so violently that he could barely get out of bed......"

Peng Shuai whistled: "This is the legend, the richer you are, the more you slam the door." Rich people, take a high imitation, and everyone will say that it is true; People who don't have money, even if they take the real thing, some people say that it is a high imitation......"

This guy is completely unaware of the oddity of this. But it's also the truth, if it weren't for the high rank of the official and the high position, he has been in the position of the god of wealth in the country, and most of the items in his house are fake. It's an inferior product that is hard charged, and I'm afraid the gossip has already spread all over Tianjing City, how can it not be exposed until now?

Even the servants in the family secretly got things out to be pawns, and the shopkeeper told them the truth, and they were beaten to the end. There was no doubt at all that something was real or fake.

"Could it be...... This guy was also coaxed? Everyone knows that he is wronged, and blindly uses fake things to deceive him? Xiao Ling asked in deep thought.

He didn't believe that it was a possibility, but reasoning. There are always obvious possibilities to rule out first.

Lin Qiuran nodded, he had considered this possibility. With a wave of his hand. The forbidden army who led the team sent a roster and opened it to take a look. It was Gu Di's own record of accepting bribes.

"These things in it," he pointed out several places in the ledger one after another, "because the briber is not sure about the truth or falsehood, so before he bribed, he asked Hu Lao to worship and palmed his eyes, and Hu Lao's offering was very clear." ”

The old worshipper nodded: "That's right." At that time, the old man had passed the hand, and the old man didn't dare to say that he must be right, but these few pieces in the warehouse were not the ones that the old man handled that day, and the old man was still accurate. ”

In other words, the real thing was given to Gudi, and then it was replaced with a fake one......

The reason why Gu Di was able to resolutely leave such a big family business and left with the giant turtle was also because this place had already been drained, and there was nothing worth nostalgic about, right?

It is rumored that he has a problem in that regard, although the house is large and there are many concubines, but there is nothing to do, so he adopted two adopted sons, and adopted two children from relatives who don't know where...... It seems that they are all preparing for today.

So the question is, where does his real money go?

Xiao Ling and Lin Qiuran glanced at each other, and they both saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.

The raid of Shangshu Mansion, most of the people in the government and the opposition were happy to see it, because the Gu Shangshu family, who had a great family, was copied, and the stolen money was not put into the treasury, and the treasury was abundant at once, and everyone was better.

But...... The dream of making a fortune that was said to be good was actually disappointed, and Gu Shangshu's family didn't have anything at all? Just an empty shell? What's going on?

If you weren't personally responsible for the raid, the first thought that would have come to your mind would have been - the person in charge of the raid would have been greedy!

At least, Xiao Ling's first reaction when he got the news was like this. For this reason, he rushed here as soon as possible, for fear that the cultivators were too lax and did not supervise effectively, allowing the Praetorian Guards to take advantage of the loopholes.

As for cultivators, they are not interested in gold and silver treasures, and they are usually not lacking, and even if they do, the space in the space bag is also prepared for prisoners, weapons, clothes, and food.

Gold and silver treasures are valuable, but can they be turned into fragrant rice when the meal is slept in the open? Or do you turn into a comfortable bed? Turning into an umbrella to protect you from the elements? Neither.

Unexpectedly, the raid, which should have been difficult, was unexpectedly smooth;

What should have been an easy finishing touch turned out to be a hot potato......

Now that this work has been completed, all the treasures in the palace have been confiscated, and moreover, it is mainly handled by the cultivators, and the Praetorian Guards basically only provide assistance...... The qiē procedure was so tightly followed, but it was a stone that shot itself in the foot.

Because up to now, apart from them, no one else has the possibility or opportunity to commit crimes. If these things are false, will others believe them? Do others believe it?

Suddenly, Xiao Ling was stunned.

Originally, he was still vaguely strange in his heart, in the afternoon. Why did the glass demon concubine in the harem suddenly commit suicide by throwing herself into the water, and she didn't see anyone dead or dead...... That's a little too light.

Combined with this strange situation in Shangshu Mansion. He kind of understood...... Cold sweat broke out in the vest.

If the enemy really played this trick, then he rashly raided the Shangshu Mansion. It can be regarded as a rash attack of the enemy and fell into the trap of the enemy......

And by now, I'm afraid it's too late to block the news. Xiao Ling's mind changed rapidly, for today's plan, I am afraid that there is only a salary at the bottom of the kettle......

Just thinking about countermeasures, a voice came from the courtyard: "The emperor's secret decree, Xiao Taishi, Peng Taibao, Lin Guoshi take the order!" ”？？？ Xiao Ling put a question mark in his heart. According to the rules, he retreated left and right. When the eunuch walked into the door, he took the order with Peng Shuai and Lin Qiuran.

But until the eunuch finished reading the content of the holy decree, he was stunned, and he didn't react a little. Lin Qiuran and Peng Shuai on the side are too.

Looking at the dumb appearance of the three people, the eunuch smiled and said: "Taishi Xiao, take the queen's dictation again: Haha, I understood earlier than you this time, right?" Triumphant, that smile made the three of them very familiar.

Damn, Xiao Ling, Peng Shuai, and Lin Qiuran stood up. Raise your middle finger at the eunuch. Where is this eunuch, it is obvious that Pu Rou has changed her appearance and earned them kowtow a few times.

But...... The holy decree she brought was really timely rain, which could be regarded as relieving Xiao Ling and her friends' troubles. And she was right to be triumphant. In this matter, she did understand earlier than Xiao Ling, and. Xiao Ling had just conceived a solution here, and she had already solved the matter. The method is better than Xiao Ling's.

If it had been a competition, she would have won.

The friends expressed their doubts: how did she see the clues. And so quickly brought countermeasures?

Pu Rou was proud and looked up to the sky: "Therefore, it is also beneficial to watch more palace fighting dramas." ”

Friends: "......"

"Okay, okay, no more nonsense. Time is limited, you quickly find someone to draw up Shane's book, and I can arrange for someone to insert it into the book. ”

"Arranger? Nothing could go wrong, right? "If there's going to be a problem, it's going to be here.

Pu Rou smiled again, her nostrils soaring: "Let me tell you this, although the words are gone, the eunuch is basically a man." ”

Friends: "......"

==========

"Fake? The things in Shangshu's Mansion are already fake? ”

In the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zeng Xitong looked at the information he had just acquired, and grinned: "Tsk, young man, you really have a big appetite, you think you can do anything wrong by hugging the emperor's thigh?" ”

Pinching the information, he walked around the study twice, and muttered: "Hmm, take this matter as an opportunity, although these cultivators who can suppress can't meddle in the affairs of the imperial court indiscriminately, at the moment they are finally powerful, if they are targeted, they won't succeed, but the failure is more than enough." This thing...... We still need to find someone to come forward......"

"There are Praetorian Guards besieging Shangshu Mansion, since the old man has gotten the news, the prince must also know about it, but there is no need to worry." Slowly sat back in his seat.

A subordinate was called from outside: "Go to the Imperial History Mansion and send a message to the old man." Those envoys who don't know their roots and can't judge their position can use ......"

"Oh, and the country festival wine house, also go to the pass on it. At this time, those students are still quite useful. ”

==========

"Fake? The things in Shangshu's Mansion are already fake? Hmph, it's so fast! Almost at the same time, in the East Palace, the crown prince Li Mo also got the same news. With the information in hand, he groaned.

After a while, he instructed his subordinates: "Invite me Taifu, Taibao, and Young Master!" "The Taishi Taibao Young Master here naturally refers to the three divisions and three young masters of the East Palace, not the three princes and three orphans of the imperial court.

A moment later, Taiwei Guo Yong, Yin Wangchang of Tianjing Mansion, and another old minister with gray hair and beard came to the East Palace, it was Yao Lin, the left attendant of the Ministry of Officials.

The three of them entered the door, and before they received the information handed by the prince, they looked at each other, already knowing what they knew.

The three divisions and three young masters of the East Palace, the Taishi and the young masters are upright and square, and they don't rub sand in their eyes; Shao Bao is a noble relative, relying on face, which is a bit unreliable; Only three people were recruited, which was a matter of urgency to be solved.

solemnly took the prince's note and read it line by line. Yao Lin was angry: "The front door rejects the tiger, and the back door enters the wolf." It's really unsafe! Tomorrow the old minister will be on the ......"

As soon as the words came out, he immediately shook his head: "Those gods and saints are thick." I'm afraid that a hard report will not help. Well, there was news from the palace in the afternoon, saying that Concubine Li had thrown herself into the lake, and so far no one has died, and there is no corpse, and Gu Shangshu here is ......"

"It's better for the old man to mobilize some protégés, create public opinion in the government and the opposition, and let those gods take the initiative to hand over power. I think most people are willing. ”

Yao Lin's opinion made the prince a little moved. Yao Lin's so-called protégé is not a person in the officialdom, but a student. Easy to be agitated. If there is any opinion, the court can only listen, and usually cannot blame, and there is no way to find out who is the mastermind.

Wang Chang on the side shook his head slowly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm afraid this matter ...... There is another mystery. Nine times out of ten, it wasn't the work of those practitioners. ”

"Didn't those cultivators do it?" The prince, Yao Lin, and Guo Yong were equally surprised.

The prince and Guo Yong glanced at each other: "Could it be the Praetorian Guard?" I have already asked the commander of the Praetorian Guard to reprimand him many times, and strictly discipline the army......"

"It's not the Praetorian Guard, either." Wang Chang shook his head, "The minister is in charge of Tianjing Mansion, and he has encountered several cases...... "There are three or four of them, and there are thieves or flying thieves. used various means to break into the Shangshu Mansion and steal the treasure. As a result, after succeeding, he inexplicably found that the treasure had been dropped and turned into a fake. Then the gang infighting led to the murder.

There were three or four pieces, and it was the people in the house who secretly took the treasures out of the house and tried to pawn them at the pawnshop. As a result, the pawnshop said that it was a fake and refused, and he was angry and angry. causing injury or disability;

There are also two or three cases, which are Gu Shangshu's righteous sons who go out to gamble with others. lost and pledged the jade pendant, but it was found to be fake and caused a dispute......

"Although the matter is not very big, there is one thing in common, that is, no one can steal the real treasure from the Shangshu Mansion......

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also knows that the minister has been paying attention to this huge greed all these years. Although there is no clear evidence, only the information obtained from the minister's private channels shows that this person sold his official position, accepted bribes, deducted and stripped his skin by taking advantage of the household department's entry and exit, built a store in the name of the royal family, collected dry shares, and sold the royal property privately...... In the past ten years, there have been a lot of money, and the amount of money looted is at least more than 20 million taels. ”

"Twenty million taels?" The crown prince, Yao Lin and Guo Yong all gasped, and the annual income of the entire imperial treasury was less than this amount, right?

Wang Chang didn't think it was a big deal: "This is only the number collected by the ministers, the number that is well documented, those who the ministers don't know, and those who haven't mastered the clues, are at least several times as much!" ”

"Isn't that, isn't it hundreds of millions of taels?" The prince, Yao Lin, and Guo Yong were dumbfounded.

This has been the silver of the treasury of the imperial court for several years. If you have this money, how much can you do?

"That's right. The more Yichen collected, the more frightened he became, and the more he collected, the stranger it became...... Gu Di has been greedy for ink for so many years, and his home can be said to be a sea of gold and silver, why...... There have been many cases like that, and it wasn't until today that the minister vaguely understood. ”

"This guy has collusion with the demon clan, but many concubines have nothing, only two righteous sons and two stepsons...... I'm afraid he didn't intend to end up in Tianjing from the beginning. The silver taels that he has been greedy for all these years, I am afraid that he has already passed through the demon clan, and he has transferred it out and taken it away by various means, and he is not at home at all......" Wang Chang slowly said his reasoning.

The crown prince, Yao Lin, and Guo Yong fell silent. Liang Jiu slowly spoke: "In this way, those cultivators are also at the right time, and it is impossible to steal chickens...... Going to make a fuss? ”

Yao Lin's face softened a little: "Even if they didn't do it...... These gods have fallen from the sky, and they have already intervened in the government and politics in just one day, and they will become a big disaster in the future. It is still necessary to link up with the courtiers and suppress their arrogance! ”

Wang Chang shook his head slowly: "The minister thinks that this matter still needs to be considered in the long run." His Royal Highness the Prince, and Rong Chen's Quartet Pavilion will take a trip to explore their tone and make plans again. ”

The prince looked at him and raised his eyebrows: "Young master, don't be like last night......"

Yao Lin didn't know about this matter, and looked at the two of them blankly.

Wang Chang's face was slightly red, and the reason why he asked to take a trip to the Sifang Pavilion was precisely because he wanted to end last night's matter. The position of this group of cultivators is very strange, and they always feel that there will be some opportunities in it...... (To be continued......)
