To be honest, Zhang Chen is quite grateful to Zhou Kaijin. Faced with this case of the Dragon King absorbing water, he has no clue now. If this guy doesn't come, he won't think about it that much. It was the appearance of this guy that made him instantly think of a very good plan, which could not only appease the people in the city, but also attract the gang of men in black to appear again. Of course, there is another point to be grateful to Zhou Kaijin, that is, Zhou Kaijin's third lady is really energetic and powerful!

As soon as Zhou Kaijin was sent away, someone else came, this person was Qin Liangqi, and he was in a hurry. Qin Liangqi came over like Zhou Kaijin, Daoxi was fake, mainly for the Dragon King's case of absorbing water. After Qin Liangqi said a lot of good words, Zhang Chen politely agreed to ask Empress Wu for a favor on his behalf.

Next, Zhang Chen stayed at home for an afternoon and did not go out, all the officials who came to congratulate him, and sent him a lot of things. It just so happened that there was a lack of calligraphy, paintings and furnishings in his room, and these people sent them in time, so they saved themselves and went out to buy them. Moreover, he had spent very little silver, and it was already a luxury for him to buy ornaments!

Looking at a large number of messy and dazzling things, Zhang Chen had the urge to take these things out and sell them. But after thinking about it, I still gave up such an idea. Isn't it that these things are worthless, they are all given by these officials with status and status, and they can handle it if they are worthless? But I'm really embarrassed, if someone knows the way, it will be a shame! I just hate that these people didn't send gold directly, but silver over! Don't you know that he is very poor now?

I picked a few of them and put them in my room and study to make decorations. The rest. It's all handed over to women such as Park Su-so and Eun Rui-hee. Pu Suxiu and Xia Huairou naturally won't be polite to Zhang Chen, as if they already regard themselves and Zhang Chen as a family! And Qiu Zhengshu was still a little embarrassed.

"My lord! Find me! Yu Chi Zhenjin looked at Zhang Chen and hugged his fists.

"Oh, Brother Wei Chi, you're here! Sit, sit! Zhang Chen said.

At this moment, he was immersed in drawing the design drawings of the huge bronze bell. The design of that thing is not a difficult task, but his drawing skills are really not good. Writing and painting depends on the work of the hands. It's not something you can remember at a glance. All the time. Zhang Chen doesn't write much, mainly as a literati, he really can't bear to look at what he writes! I can't bear to let others see it!

"My lord, what's the matter?" looked at Zhang Chen. Yu Chi Zhenjin asked softly. Somewhat puzzled. Painted by Zhang Chen. It looks like that huge bronze bell.

"Oh, sit! Right away! Zhang Chen said with a smile.

Yu Chi Zhenjin stopped talking and sat down. Needless to say, the little maid hurriedly sent tea. I have to say that the little maids from the eastern island countries brought by Qiu Zhengshu are still very nimble. The only downside was that they chattered incessantly, and he didn't understand a word.

After a while, Zhang Chen let go of his hard hair. I looked at it and it felt okay, although it wasn't very beautiful, but the structure was drawn! Zhang Chen blew and air-dried the ink on the paper. Zhang Chen smiled and handed the drawings to Yu Chi Zhenjin, Yu Chi Zhenjin hurriedly took it, looked at it, it was indeed that kind of big bronze bell, but he didn't understand what Zhang Chen meant.

"Brother Wei Chi, do you still have an impression of those two big guys?" Looking at Yu Chi Zhenjin, Zhang Chen asked with a smile.

"Yes, sir!" Yu Chi Zhenjin responded.

"I told you to come here and ask you to find some silversmiths and make two of those big bronze bells according to this drawing!" Zhang Chen said with a smile.

"What does this mean, sir?" Yu Chi Zhenjin was stunned and asked. I still don't understand. There's no way, he's stupid and doesn't turn fast. Changed to Di Renjie's kind, as long as he saw Zhang Chen's drawing, he could instantly associate Zhang Chen's entire plan.

"Hehehe, what do you mean! We lost two, we made two! Zhang Chen said with a smile. Then, he said mysteriously: "Okay, Brother Wei Chi, you just do what I say!" You'll understand! However, this matter must be kept secret and found a trustworthy brother to do it! And don't let the silversmiths talk about it! ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand!" Yu Chi Zhenjin hugged his fists. I still don't know, their adults are often so mysterious, but if you do what Zhang Chen says, there will definitely be no mistake!

"Then my lord, my subordinates will retire first!" After thinking about it, Yu Chi Zhenjin hugged his fists again.

"There's no urgency in this matter, let's have two drinks first!" Zhang Chen said with a smile. Then he instructed the little maids to bring the food and drinks. Now, with his own mansion, he looks like a master!

Yu Chi Zhenjin drank wine with Zhang Chen, but he couldn't help but ask. Zhang Chen also briefly explained that the intention of creating these two things was to deceive people, to deceive the people in the city, and let them know that the huge whirlpool of the Dao was not because the Dragon King absorbed water. However, as for what he would do, Zhang Chen did not elaborate.

After listening to Zhang Chen's explanation, Yu Chi Zhenjin suddenly realized. only hated himself for being too stupid, such a simple truth, why didn't he figure it out? They want to bring back those two big bronze bells, isn't the purpose to appease these people in Luoyang City, and now that those two things have been stolen, they will make two more as they are, or they will have it! Stupid! Why didn't he think of it? It's still an adult's smart!

Of course, Zhang Chen did think so. However, Zhang Chen must have thought much more than Yu Chi Zhenjin!

……

Early the next morning, Zhang Chen also went to the morning court. It is not the first time that Zhang Chen has been in the early court, but looking at the civil and military officials in the court, as well as the purple official uniform he wears, Zhang Chen is really a little unaccustomed. And Zhang Chen's arrival undoubtedly attracted all the officials. When everyone saw Zhang Chen, they all came over to congratulate Zhang Chen. This is a celebrity in front of today's martial arts, it's good, yes!

In the court, Empress Wu ordered that the case of the Dragon King's water absorption be handed over to Zhang Chen. Under Zhang Chen's plea, Empress Wu did not embarrass Wang Yuzhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Qin Liangqi, and Zhou Kaijin, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and ordered Wang Yuzhi and Qin Liangqi to assist Zhang Chen in handling the case.

Originally, if this matter was placed before, Wang Yuzhi would definitely be extremely unhappy. This red jade is just a small third-grade Dali Siqing, why should he let the second-grade master listen to him? However, at this moment, Wang Yuzhi is grateful. Yesterday afternoon, he also went to Zhang Chen in person, hoping that Zhang Chen could ask the Empress Wu for a favor and tolerate it for a few days. In fact, it is false to tolerate a few days, but I want to delay it for a few days, and leave all this matter to Zhang Chen to be responsible.

After going back, Zhang Chen was not in a hurry to handle the case, but was preparing for the banquet the day after tomorrow. There is no urgency in this matter, he already has a plan. Even if it can't achieve the effect of luring the snake out of the hole, it can make the people in the city feel at ease and completely destroy the plan of the mysterious black-clothed people. However, once this matter is done, he and Liang Zi of the mysterious organization will be settled, and there is no room for recovery. Either kill them yourself, or be killed by them, this is the biggest headache for Zhang Chen.

Why is it Dali Temple? How nice it would be to change to another official! In fact, investigating cases is really not what he is best at! The thing he is best at is, alas! Zhang Chen felt a little helpless in his heart.

Calling Yin Ruiji to his room, Zhang Chen asked softly, "Ruiji, how many silver taels do we have?" ”

This banquet will definitely have a lot of tables, and if there is no money at that time, it will be embarrassing! It's so hard to have so many mouths waiting to eat every day! The Empress Wu said that he would reward himself? Why don't you send some silver? Alas, when I became a family, I realized that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive!

"Childe, it's not much! There are less than three hundred taels of silver, and the gold has long since run out! Looking at Zhang Chen, Yin Ruiji said softly. The family's finances are all taken care of by her and Baguio.

Less than three hundred taels? What is this enough for? Zhang Chen was shocked. There are so many of them, and the daily expenses are more than a dozen taels, right? Alas, it's really hard! Now, I have a house, but I don't have any money! The worst thing is that he still has to hold a banquet two days later, and these three hundred taels are estimated to be not enough for the money for drinks, let alone invite those chefs! Chilly? Is Hanqi worthy of his identity as the secretary of Dali Temple? But I can't get any silver at this time, what should I do, do I want to steal it, I want to rob it?

Zhang Chen thought of Qiu Zhengshu and Pu Suxiu and other women, they are the princesses of the East Island Country, so they should have some savings, right? Now that they are all a family, it shouldn't be a problem to ask them to borrow a few thousand taels to respond to emergencies first.

With such an idea, Zhang Chen went to find Qiu Zhengshu.

"Hehehe, Second Princess!" Looking at Qiu Zhengshu, Zhang Chen said with a smile. In good conscience, he really doesn't like to borrow money! In the past, he borrowed money from the big head, and he couldn't open his mouth.

"Your Excellency!" Qiu Zhengshu replied softly. She was tidying up her own house. Her house is also next to Zhang Chen's house, which is her treatment as an older sister. And Baguio lives in the same room with Yin Ruiji, since Yin Ruiji pulled her to secretly have a relationship with Zhang Chen, let her experience the taste of being a woman, and her relationship with Yin Ruiji is so bad! No matter what time it is, the two of them are together. You're done, I'm going, I'm tired, you continue!

"Oh, where's Maruko?" After thinking about it, Zhang Chen asked. Zhang Chen often wonders, is this Chunmu Maruko his cheap son? Whether it is or not, the task of raising this little guy as an adult has fallen on his shoulders.

"Maruko went to play with her sister!" Qiu Zhengshu said. The face is slightly red. Alas, his son can run and jump, and he has to mess around with this little man, really! I am becoming more and more ashamed, but in the face of this little man, I really can't help it! This little man is so handsome and strong, she is simply fascinated!

"Oh, Second Princess! I, I, I want to talk to you, you, you about something! After hesitating for a while, Zhang Chen stiffened his head and stammered.

"If your Excellency has anything to do, just say it! Adults are polite to us! Qiu Zhengshu blushed and said.

"Oh, oh! Second princess, you, are you rich? (To be continued......)
