"I'll give you two hundred slaps, do you want it?" Gong Shouli said angrily, "What kind of case did it cost 500,000 taels of silver so quickly!" ”

"You see you're in a hurry again, you listen to me calculate for you, it costs more than 100,000 taels of silver to buy a jinshi, and Zhao Yu and I sent a total of twenty undercover agents, how much does it add up? Now the deposit is more than 200,000 taels of silver spent, plus dots everywhere, what is the use of 500,000 taels? Xiao Chen crossed his fingers to settle the account for him.

"We're just investigating, and we don't have to be real!" Gong Shouli said.

"If you don't spend money, how can you determine the evidence? In the end, people didn't admit it, but they were joking with us, so what should you do? Don't worry, it doesn't matter if the money is spent, there is a whereabouts anyway, and when the time comes, what will happen if you are afraid that you won't be able to copy it? I'm afraid I can copy more of it! Xiao Chen said.

"you, kid will raid the house!" Gong Shouli said, "Anyway, I don't have so much silver, you go and ask the emperor for it." ”

"Then you're not afraid that the emperor will raid your home?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"Hmph, then I have to copy you, you kid is more corrupt than me, I heard that you bought more than a dozen mansions in Fengyang City, good guys, that's not a few million taels? How much does it cost you to be the governor of Yanyun a year? Where did you get all this money, I ask you! Gong Shouli said.

"I captured it last time I attacked Yizhou." Xiao Chen said, "I helped the emperor fight, and the emperor didn't give me a piece of silver, so it's okay for me to get some loot, right?" ”

It's really no problem.

"You said that the emperor wanted you to be a school politician, and this asked you to investigate the case with us, so if you start a war with the English, you won't go?" Gong Shouli asked.

"You don't need me, there is Zhongcheng Wang Ye and ...... You kid is so special and old man! Xiao Chen said as he spoke.

"Hehe, it turned out that the prince of Zhongcheng was in charge?" Gong Shouli smiled proudly, "That's because you are stronger than the kid, but the soldiers under your kid are willing to listen to the prince's orders?" ”

"Tut-tut, if it weren't for the fact that I had just met the emperor, I would still think that the emperor sent you to ask me, why Lao Gong, you are a eunuch who is in charge of the seal, and you still want to intervene in the war?" Xiao Chen sneered.

"It's dark this day, it's time to eat, you get out of here, you still want me to invite you if you don't leave?" Gong Shouli rolled his eyes and walked with his hands behind his back, his steps were particularly steady, and he didn't shake anymore.

"I don't need you to invite me to dinner, but when will you give me this money? Hey, don't run, don't fall on your legs and feet, don't fall on a...... Damn, your old boy's legs and feet are so neat now, you! Gong Shouli ran so fast that Xiao Chen couldn't catch up with him.

Fortunately, Gong Shouli refused to invite him to dinner, but Zhu Xiaochuan was willing, and when he saw Xiao Chenlai, he said that he had just met the emperor, so he knew that he had something to say, so he immediately ordered someone to set up wine and leave him for dinner.

"The emperor's will, brother, what else do I say? No matter who you want to choose, you are familiar with the brothers of Jinyiwei anyway. Zhu Xiaochuan heard that Xiao Chen wanted someone, so he readily agreed.

"Your brother won't ask me what case I'm working on?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"The case that your brother personally supervised, I'm afraid it's not small." Zhu Xiaochuan said, "More things are better than less things, I still don't ask." ”

"Hehe, my brother expected it to be good, it was really a big case, and it was so heavy on my brother's shoulders that I was dying, your brother wanted to hide from me, and I had to help me share some of the pressure, you can't do it if you don't ask, I want to tell you!" Xiao Chen said with a smile.

After listening to Xiao Chen's story, Zhu Xiaochuan fell into silence......

"It's a big case." After a long time, he finally sighed, "Don't talk about this kind of thing, we are in Da Zhou, I have never seen it before, I have never heard of it!" ”

"Is it true that your brother didn't know all along?" Xiao Chen said, "Or do you hear some wind and grass, but pretend not to know?" ”

"Fengyang City is too big, the water is too deep, the fish and dragons are mixed, and the light is strange...... You can't see clearly with your eyes wide, so it's better to open one eye and close one eye. Zhu Xiaochuan said, "You think that our Jinyiwei is pervasive and omniscient, but in fact, this is not the case, some places the water is too deep, and we can't dive." ”

"I can't go down now." Xiao Chen said, "I don't even know why the emperor wants to hand over this tricky errand to me?" Hehe, most of the time I went out with an open mind, but I felt sorry for you! ”

"Don't complain, it's difficult for the emperor." Zhu Xiaochuan said, "You have never been in Fengyang, and you don't know much about some things, or you know it too, but you can stay out of it, like a few of us, there is nowhere to hide if you want to, isn't this here again?" ”

"You're still talking about me, aren't you also whining?" Xiao Chen smiled, "It's useless to think about these things now, what does the emperor tell you to do, let's do it, anyway, the sky can't fall, and if it collapses, the emperor and his old man will hold it." ”

"Well, we should be like this ......as courtiers," Zhu Xiaochuan wiped his face a little distressed, "Does the emperor have any other orders?" ”

"And." Xiao Chen said, "One doesn't dare to say, the other can say, brother, which one do you want to know?" ”

"If you don't dare to say it, you don't have to say it, just say what you can say." Zhu Xiaochuan's expression also became very peculiar, and Xiao Chen's eyes were even more strange.

"The emperor wants me to be a student politician!" Xiao Chen said, "I am also reluctant to be embarrassed and cheeky to come down, and when the time comes, you will have to support me!" ”

"Oh, that's a great thing!" Zhu Xiaochuan was stunned for a moment, and then became happy, "Brother, I congratulate you first." ”

"That's not busy." Xiao Chen said, "To be honest, brother, it's okay for me to chant poetry, if you talk about making a fuss, it's really not good, when it's time to read the papers, if you can't see a good one, I'm afraid of being laughed at by others, and other people's jokes will be forgotten, and I'm most afraid of losing our emperor's face." ”

"Hahaha, if you Xiao Chen can't see it, no one in the world will be able to see it!" Zhu Xiaochuan laughed, "If you don't say this, I still forgot, it just so happens that I have a nephew from a distant house who also came to Beijing to take the exam, and I am also confused when I talk about articles...... I still want you to point out the text, you can't shirk Ang! ”

"Then I'll have a big deal with your brother?" Xiao Chen smiled, "Brother, my article is no longer good, I expect to be a little better than your brother?" ”

"That's not a little bit! It's a world of difference, you are the first talent in the world. Zhu Xiaochuan was overjoyed, "Then I won't be polite to you, go back and ask my nephew to write two essays to send to you, you have to criticize well." ”

"Okay, my little brother is not talented, but he is quite a good teacher, if my nephew is a young talent, wouldn't it be a happy life to teach him?" Xiao Chen happily agreed.

Xiao Chen, a scholar and politician, has not yet taken office, so he first promised Zhu Xiaochuan a great favor.
