After Zhu'er nodded, she respectfully brought two charcoal fires from the side and put them under the hot pot, and also added several pieces of charcoal to the stove to make the fire burn a little stronger.

It began to snow heavily outside the house again, and the four people in the house were eating hot pot together but it was unusually quiet, Tao Mingxi looked at the soup churning in the pot, and secretly scolded Xing Tianze in his heart for not knowing good people.

Traceless tasted the wine in the cup and looked sideways at the flying snow outside the house, and suddenly felt that there were not many such comfortable and peaceful lives at this time, he and Xing Tianze needed to work weekdays, and the hot pot that Tao Mingxi let them eat really had the charm of stealing half a day's leisure.

After eating for an hour, Xing Tianze put down the dishes and chopsticks, he has always eaten slowly, and he is much more elegant than Tao Mingxi's eating.

"Zhu'er, let someone pull the pot, the prince has drunk the traceless son, the two of them have a lot of business, it's better not to play and waste their time." Tao Mingxi drank a cup of tea and directly ordered the eviction.

As soon as Zhu'er stretched out her hand and looked up, she saw Xing Tianze's gaze like a knife and an axe, and she couldn't help but take her hand back, and she took two steps back in fear and stood behind Tao Mingxi, burying her head deeply.

"The princess seems to be very reluctant that this king is here?" Xing Tianze's face was already gloomy, he really wanted to know what the woman in front of him was thinking.

As the lord of the backyard of the palace, he was unwilling to let him stay in her far away for more? The other concubines wished that Xing Tianze would go to their courtyard every day, but Tao Mingxi gave him a feeling of disgust.

"Where does the concubine dare to think like this, it's just that considering that the prince is case needs to be dealt with, I don't have anything in the house here, I'm afraid that it will delay your thinking of handling the case, if you can't solve the case as scheduled, the emperor will not be able to explain it." Tao Mingxi directly ignored Xing Tianze's sharp gaze and drank tea leisurely with a teacup.

"If the prince really wants someone to be by his side, there are beautiful women in this backyard who are willing." Tao Mingxi put down the teacup and stretched his waist as if no one was around.

Zhu'er raised her head slightly and looked at Tao Mingxi, her eyes were full of worry, she didn't know what the master meant, didn't she really know how close she was to the prince to increase her feelings?

If the prince is on the side of the princess, will Sun Yingru still dare to come to her for trouble in the future?

Wuji, who hadn't spoken for a long time, looked at Tao Mingxi with admiration, and he suddenly felt that Xing Tianze's princess was very unusual.

"Since the princess doesn't want this king to stay here, then I will order someone to move the study to your courtyard, and I will work here in the future, and it will save you the trouble of running to you for dinner in the future." Xing Tianze stared at her eyes, trying to see a few different expressions in Tao Mingxi's eyes.

"My place here is too small to accommodate the prince's dignity, I think it's better for you to stay in the study." Tao Mingxi didn't want Xing Tianze to really move to her.

Not to mention whether this man will do anything bad to her, if Xing Tianze lives in her far away, what will happen to those other concubines, and how will Tao Mingxi practice in the future? She didn't want to be soft and weak all the time.

"Okay, lord, let's discuss the matter, I think what the princess said is good, and the captain does not rule out the possibility of self-theft." In the time just now, without a trace re-established the case in his mind with what Tao Mingxi said at that time, and immediately found a lot of suspicious places.

Just as Tao Mingxi meant in his words, military salaries were indeed allocated from the state treasury.

After the locks were placed through the gate leaving the treasury, no one saw the money again, not even those who were in charge of escorting the salaries, but only boxes with seals on them.

Whether the box contained military pay or something else, no one except the lieutenant could really know.

This kind of idea is really not something that ordinary people dare to think, and this just gives Taiwei the opportunity to commit a crime.

Listening to the traceless analysis of Tao Mingxi's thoughts, he also refocused on the case, if something like this happened now, he would directly call the monitoring of the crime scene, and he could also restore the situation at the time of the crime through various instruments.

But now there is nothing left, except for reasoning, Xing Tianze only has those soldiers who saw ghosts in his hands, and the empty boxes loaded with military salaries at that time.

"It was raining...... Rain ......" Tao Mingxi secretly thought about the environment at that time, and suddenly thought of a possibility, phosphorus pentoxide in chemistry is a solid, once it comes into contact with water, it will disappear.

"You two are well-informed and don't know anything that can be made into the shape of gold, but disappear without leaving a trace when it comes into contact with water?" Tao Mingxi kept pinching and pinching in the bowl with chopsticks, but not to clip out anything.

Xing Tianze's eyes revealed a thoughtful look when he heard this, and a trace of light also erupted in his eyes, why didn't he think of this.

According to the information he received, the soldiers saw the ghost, and someone knocked a box to the ground in a panic and panic, and the lid of the box was bumped before it was opened, and the military pay inside slowly disappeared under the rain.

Seeing that scene, the leader of the general rashly gave an order to open the other boxes, and all the military pay was slowly dissolved after coming into contact with the rain, and the clouds of white smoke disappeared.

"There shouldn't be anything like this in the world, right? Military salaries are made of gold and will never disappear in the rain. Xing Tianze shook his head lightly, denying Tao Mingxi's idea.

"Really, not?" Tao Mingxi was not half disappointed, Xing Tianze said that it is impossible to mean that these ancients have not yet invented phosphorus pentoxide.

"No, there is!" Traceless put down the wine glass in his hand: "Lord Wang, don't you know, there is a thing called hydration gold that can do this." ”

"Hydrated gold?" A flash of doubt flashed in Xing Tianze's eyes, it was the first time he had heard this name.

However, Xing Tianze believed his words very much, because the Traceless Master was famous and had traveled between the Three Kingdoms for many years, and everything he saw and heard was far above him.

There are no wonders in the world, and he Xing Tianze doesn't dare to think that he has seen all the strange things in the world.

"Hydrated gold doesn't make much difference from what it looks like real gold on the outside, but once it comes into contact with water, it slowly disappears and doesn't leave any traces in the end." Wuxian looked at Tao Mingxi with appreciation, if she hadn't said it, he really couldn't remember it for a while.

"Oh? Is there such a miracle in the world? A burst of surprise flashed on Xing Tianze's face, but he secretly admired his own princess in his heart, and he was able to think of this first?

"Hydrated gold is rare to see, if this is the case, but it is difficult for the captain to go to great lengths to get so many pretending to be military salaries." Traceless shook his head slightly.
