The crescent moon is in the sky, the Imperial City Teahouse, and Yipinxuan.

On the stage in the center of the first floor, the storyteller shook the folding fan in one hand and the teapot in the other, and took a sip from time to time.

In the Martial Emperor Domain, the most admired is the Empress Ling Piaoxue.

Because of this, Mr. Storyteller spoke quite wonderfully, and many people who drank tea and listened to books did not notice the arrival of Lu Chen and others.

"That's not bad, although eight out of ten sentences are fabricated, as long as he can hold it. ”

Lu Chen put his hands behind his back, stopped and listened for a while, then shook his head and smiled and climbed to the second floor, followed by Yun Bufan and Xiao Lan.

"His Royal Highness the Nineth, this time the person from the household department is the nephew of Pan Hong, the secretary of the household department, named Pan Yu, and the current position of the household servant, I heard that this person is not very old, good at calculation, of course, only careful about money, and is also very greedy. ”

Yun Bufan reminded in a low voice from the side.

"Hmph, a money fan in his twenties, I don't know how many bribes he gave to the ministry, but he was able to serve as the second-in-command of the household department. Xiao Lan pursed her lips and snorted coldly.

"This Pan Yu should be in office for a short time, right?"

Lu Chen asked expressionlessly with his hands behind his back.

"Well, it is true that he has not been in office for a long time, since he took office, it has been less than a year, because of his young age, he can enrich the treasury, and he has been rewarded many times by Emperor Wu. Yun Bufan said.

Enrich the treasury, Emperor Wu rewarded?

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but shake his head, Emperor Wu was not so easy to fool, after all, he was in charge of a domain, and the prince and princess embezzled the resources of the treasury, presumably Emperor Wu had already known, but he had not been punished yet.

And Pan Yu's role is to rely on his calculation of money and his greedy character to help the household department to make up for the loss of the treasury.

can last for a year, and has not let the treasury show its feet, I have to say that this person is a talent, but when Emperor Wu wants to punish him, Pan Yu must be a scapegoat.

In a private room, Pan Yu was wearing ordinary clothes, looking quite simple, at the age of twenty, he had a mustache, a thin and short figure, a pair of triangular eyes, and a faint essence.

"Nine, Nine Emperors?"

Lu Chen and the three of them had just stepped into the private room, and Pan Yu, who was drinking tea, was suddenly shocked, spit out a sip of tea on the table, got up again and again, bent down to salute, and said respectfully: "Pan Yu, the servant of the Ministry of Households, has seen His Royal Highness the Nine." ”

"No need to be polite. ”

Lu Chen bowed his head slightly, sat opposite him with a natural expression, looked at him expressionlessly, and said indifferently: "Pan Yu, are you guilty?"

"Damn! Sure enough, it's not good, come up and ask for sin?"

Pan Yu secretly cursed in his heart when he heard this, but he smiled on his face, and asked stupidly: "I don't know what His Royal Highness the Ninth is talking about, the minister has always done his best, worked hard for the royal family, worked hard for Emperor Wu, and has been in charge of the treasury for a year, and has never had any ......."

"Colluding with the head of the household department Shangshu Pan Hong, misappropriating treasury resources without authorization, helping the eighth princess to strengthen the martial arts, and even with the eldest prince, the third prince, the fourth prince, and the seventh princess, they jointly used the treasury resources, and made up for the loss of the treasury with the people's fat and people's ointment, so take the mountain price this time, you will increase it by five times. ”

Before Pan Yu finished speaking, Lu Chen went straight to the point and interrupted indifferently.

"Uh, hehe, His Royal Highness the Nine, there are some things that need to be evidenced, but you can't be convicted with just a few words, and I don't know what Your Highness the Ninth wants to buy a mountain land on the edge of the imperial city?"

Pan Yu squinted his eyes, touched his mustache, and after hearing about the mountain, his attitude immediately changed, he got up and sat at the table, drank tea, and added: "I heard that the buyers of that mountain area have also purchased a lot of building materials, and even invited nearly a thousand coolies, such a big project, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter, right?"

"I'm going to create a manor house to garrison troops. ”

Lu Chen said expressionlessly.

In short, it's horrifying.

Pan Yu, who listened directly, changed his complexion suddenly, and when he took a sip of tea, he didn't squirt out, but choked and coughed.

I didn't expect Lu Chen to be so bold.

Even such a garrison dare to say it at will.

Not to mention that Pan Yu was shocked on the spot, Yun Bufan and Xiao Lan, who were standing behind him, were all stunned.

"Nine, Your Highness the Nine, do you know that this is a capital crime?" Pan Yu's eyes flickered, swallowed and spit, and asked dryly.

"Idiot, do you think you'll be able to leave Yipinxuan alive?"

Yun Bufan's face turned cold, and he reprimanded with disdain.

Xiao Lan next to her is also very ugly, since Lu Chen said it so clearly, then this Pan Yu must not leave a living mouth.

"You want to kill me, I'm a Tobe squire!"

Pan Yu frowned, and forced himself to get up and drink.

"You don't have to shout, no one around you can hear you. Lu Chen said lightly.

"This second floor, I have ordered someone to take over. ”

Yun Bufan added with a sneer.

"You...... You guys...... Even so, if I die here, none of you will want to get rid of it! The crime of murdering an official is not light!" Pan Yu looked nervous, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"It's much lighter than the manor garrisons. ”

Lu Chen looked at him expressionlessly.

"Yes, do you think that no one knows about your use of treasury resources like this? Once traced, several princes and princesses may not have an accident, but your death, as well as your uncle Pan Hong, are destined to be difficult to get out!"

"I'm dying, and I still think you can live? Do you know who I am?"

Xiao Lan sneered disdainfully.

"You, who are you?" Pan Yu asked in a trembling voice, swallowing and spitting.

"The daughter of the military department, Xiao Lan. ”

Xiao Lan said coldly.

"The daughter of the military department?"

Pan Yu's heart jumped when he heard this, but he still said calmly: "The secretary of the military department is in charge of the affairs of the military department, what does it have to do with the household department?"

"What about me?"

Smack!

With a faint sound, the door was gently pushed open.

I saw Master Shang Shugou of the Criminal Department, slowly stepping in, looking at him with a smile.

"Hook, Gou, you, you calculate me!"

The moment he saw the book of the Criminal Department, Pan Yu's complexion changed greatly, and his face turned pale.

"No, no, no, I just wanted to make a deal with you. ”

Lu Chen waved his hand and said lightly.

"Deal, deal?"

Pan Yu was like sitting on pins and needles, with a thousand regrets in his heart, if he knew that the Nine Emperor Princes, with the daughter of the military department and the criminal department, were waiting for the rabbit here, even if he killed himself, he would not come.

"Your Royal Highness the Nine, you really surprised me, even the criminal department secretary who supports the third prince can come forward to help you, but even if Lord Gou is here, you have to talk about evidence, without evidence, you can't do anything!"

"If you kill me, none of you will try to escape!"

Pan Yu squinted his eyes and said with an ugly face.
