Chapter 427: Why Come
Seeing him like this, the rich merchant waved his hand, and now that the matter had been resolved, Chen Mu asked the two of them to take the two of them upstairs to rest.
After settling in the city, resting for a day, and staying until the next morning, Chen Mu immediately arranged for the carriage and horses to set off for the capital.
Along the way, there was no danger, and after a few days, the group arrived in the capital smoothly.
Chen Mu asked the three old gentlemen surnamed Cao to be placed in the city, and asked them to investigate the recent movements of the fake Liu Qun.
"That fake Lord Liu is like in the past, either going out to eat and drink with his colleagues, or just getting together to discuss political affairs."
"But he doesn't go to visit the Zhou Mansion every day."
As for that Zhou Mansion, it was the force behind him.
That fake Liu Qun is a guest of the Zhou Mansion, and now he is an official in the court, so he naturally serves the Zhou Mansion.
The reason why I went to visit every day was mostly because I wanted to tell the Zhou people in the Zhou Mansion about the news that I had inquired in the court.
Chen Mu thought about it like this, sneered, and in front of him, he blatantly replaced the identity of the candidate, not to mention, and even formed a party for personal gain so publicly.
"Now that I have returned to the palace, I will rest in the palace for one night, and I will stay until tomorrow morning, and I will personally go to the Zhou Mansion to sit."
"By the way, have you made sure that Liu Qun and his mother's residence will be ordered?"
Chen Mu put down the paperwork in his hand and asked.
When the subordinates heard this, they immediately nodded in response.
"It's arranged according to your lordship's instructions."
"Okay." Chen Mu hooked his lips.
"In a while, I will send someone to send a message to tell Liu Qun that I will take him to Zhou's mansion tomorrow."
He wanted to see how the fake Lord Liu would react to the real Liu Qun.
Hearing Chen Mu say this, his subordinates responded again.
Chen Mu waved his hand and let people exit the study.
He went through the backlog of paperwork over the past few days.
Most of these things that have not been dealt with are those that are not in a hurry to deal with, or are related to the decrees he issued.
When all the paperwork was processed, it was already late at night, Chen Mu sighed lightly and accepted the paperwork in his hand.
As soon as he stepped out of the study with others, he saw two figures standing in the courtyard of the study.
The two figures stood in the moonlight without lanterns, looking at him faintly, and startled him.
"Meng Qing, why are you standing in this courtyard and not entering the main hall, now that the sky is getting colder and colder, how long have you been standing here? Don't catch a cold. ”
Chen Mu glanced at his subordinates, and immediately someone brought a big coat over, and Chen Mu draped it on Meng Qing's body.
Meng Qing crooked into Chen Mu's arms, and she said with a resentful expression.
"It's not that I'm afraid of disturbing you, you just came back, and there are important matters to deal with, I'm thinking about it, and I'll talk to you when you're done."
"I miss you so much, you haven't been back for a few days, and I don't know how your matter is handled, and I don't dare to send you a letter."
"I'm worried that I've delayed the business at hand, but now I finally see you, if you have a private visit to Weifu next time, you have to take me with you."
Meng Qing said this, pursed her lips, and looked up in the direction of Chen Mu.
Her words sounded like complaints, but there was a sly glint in her eyes.
As soon as Chen Mu heard her say this, he understood what she was thinking.
She shook her head helplessly and sighed, nodding the other party's little nose.
"You, you obviously want to take this opportunity to blackmail me, so that I can take you on my next Weifu visit, do you think I don't understand your mind?"
Meng Qing was stunned for a moment, and then her complexion changed slightly.
She took a step back and made a gesture to kneel.
When Chen Mu saw her like this, he immediately held the person up, and he frowned and said.
"What are you doing, I'm just joking with you."
"Where is this a joke, the word coercion can't be said casually, His Royal Highness the Prince, don't say that in the future."
"I can't afford to blackmail His Royal Highness the Prince, I can't afford it, and I'm going to lose my head easily!"
Meng Qing's brows were tightly knit and her face was frightened.
Chen Mu couldn't help but laugh when he saw her like this.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still laughing at me, should you compensate me? I really scared the concubine just now. ”
Seeing that the other party was about to kick his nose in the face, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows.
Seeing this, Meng Qing stepped forward again and repeated the request she had just made.
Chen Mu saw the other party like this. I knew that I was eyeing the opportunity of this private visit to the microserver.
After all, Meng Qing is a person who likes freedom, and he is not very old, if he has the opportunity to have a private visit to Weifu, and he can ensure the safety of himself and Meng Qing, it doesn't hurt to bring the other party.
Chen Mu sighed, nodded in response, Meng Qing saw this, cheered, and threw herself into Chen Mu's arms.
rubbed Chen Mu intimately, and Chen Mu took Meng Qing back to the dormitory to rest.
Brought to the next morning, after simply taking care of the business at hand, Chen Mu immediately drove to Zhou's house, and the Zhou family didn't get any news at all.
The frame brought to Chen Mu had already arrived outside their Zhou family's mansion, and their Zhou family heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had come to visit in person.
The Zhou family was suddenly taken aback, and went out to greet them in a panic.
Chen Mu stepped into the Zhou family and saw the Zhou family fall to the ground, and he quietly swept through the crowd.
Seeing a figure kneeling at the edge of the crowd, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows.
If he is mistaken, this figure should be the fake Liu Qun.
Fake Liu Qun came so early, it's not yet noon.
Chen Mu snorted coldly, and many of the Zhou family members present were always paying attention to Chen Mu's movements.
Suddenly, they heard this cold snort, and everyone's hearts were drumming, and they all looked up in the direction of Chen Mu.
Someone asked tentatively.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, why did you suddenly come to our Zhou family today?"
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, do you have anything important to ask? It should be our Zhou family visiting you in the palace, and we shouldn't let you leave the palace......"
Those Zhou family members laughed on their faces, and when Chen Mu saw them like this, he snorted coldly again.
He ignored these Zhou family members and only strode in the direction of the front hall.
As soon as everyone saw Chen Mu like this, they knew that things were not good, and those Zhou family members looked at each other, and several thoughts flashed through their minds.
Because there were so many evil things they had done, they couldn't even confirm where Chen Mu came from.
They took a deep breath, and could only follow Chen Muyi into the front hall with their heads bowed.
Chen Mu sat down in the front hall, glanced at everyone, and then said in a cold voice.
"Since I'm here today, I have the intention of accountability, and I won't say much nonsense, hurry up and summon the truth of the facts, don't force me to torture you."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the Zhou family fell to their knees again.
Chen Mu looked coldly in the direction of the head of the Zhou family, who was an adult in the Ministry of Industry.
He met Chen Mu's gaze, stepped forward with two steps on his knees, and then kowtowed again and again.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, yes...... It's me who is bad and I shouldn't ...... I shouldn't have withheld the money from the Ministry of Works, I should have transferred it to Meicheng earlier! I ......"
