Chapter 441: Pirated Treasure Money
"Humph!"
Guo An snorted coldly, "They are so bold!" ”
Shen Zhuang hurriedly echoed: "What Master Hou said is extremely true! ”
Guo An asked again: "Can you find out, where did these treasure money flow from?" ”
Shen Zhuang shook his head slowly, "Master Hou forgives the sin, the grass people didn't find out."
In addition, the grass people were afraid of startling the grass and snakes, so they did not go to investigate with great fanfare! ”
"Hmm!"
Guo An nodded slightly, "Since they dare to print this kind of treasure banknote, they will definitely not let you find it at will." ”
"Hou Ye is wise!"
Shen Zhuang hurriedly flattered.
Guo An didn't pay attention to him, but looked directly at Guo Ang, the housekeeper on the side.
"Let's see if there is any such brand-new treasure money in the house!"
"Yes, sir!"
Although Guo Ang was a little surprised, why his master liked this brand-new treasure banknote so much, he still hurriedly walked out.
Soon, he also walked in with two brand-new treasure notes in his hand.
"Back to the master, the villain only found two!"
"Two?"
Guo An's eyes widened, he took it directly, and looked at it twice, one with fifty taels and one with ten taels of denominations!
"These traitors! Such a thing that has lost its conscience, and it dares to do it, it really deserves to be cut by a thousand knives! ”
Guo An couldn't help but curse.
"Master, but what's wrong?" Guo Ang asked with some confusion.
"Nothing!"
Guo An waved his hand slowly, "We're just angry." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Shen Zhuang on the side.
"We will report this matter to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will also know your merits.
What reward do you want? ”
Shen Zhuang's face was suddenly full of joy, "Thank you, Master Hou, it is the honor of the grass people to make Your Majesty remember the grass people, and you will never dare to ask for any reward!" ”
Guo An glanced at Shen Zhuang seriously, "We know!" ”
"Thank you, Master Hou!"
Shen Zhuang replied again.
Guo An asked again, "What else do you have to do?" ”
"Back to Master Hou, the grass people are fine!" Shen Zhuang replied.
Guo An nodded slowly, "Since that's the case, I'll go and report this matter to Your Majesty!" ”
"Master Hou, please!"
Shen Zhuang hurriedly got up and said goodbye to Guo An.
"The grass people are retired!"
"Hmm!"
Guo An nodded slightly, got up, and walked out.
"Xu Yong, prepare the car, let's enter the palace to meet Your Majesty!"
"Yes, Master Hou!"
Xu Yong replied and walked out quickly.
……
Half an hour later.
In the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Di looked at Guo An in surprise.
"Why did Guo Qing carry treasure money?"
Guo An asked slowly, "Your Majesty, didn't you find anything wrong with these treasure notes?" ”
"What's wrong?"
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, then picked up the treasure banknote, looked at it seriously for a long time, and then looked at Guo An with a puzzled face.
"Guo Qing, what's wrong with these treasure notes?"
Guo An said: "Your Majesty, they are too new!" ”
"New?"
Zhu Di smiled faintly, "Guo Qing, these treasure banknotes are so new, which proves that the people of the Ming Dynasty love treasure banknotes very much!" ”
Guo An smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, treasure money is money, and everyone will love it very much!" ”
"Exactly!"
Zhu Di nodded slightly, "Then why does Guo Qing still think that these treasure notes are too new?" ”
"Your Majesty, no matter how much people love it, these treasure notes shouldn't be so new!"
Guo An said directly: "Moreover, Your Majesty, even if it is a good rice paper, if it is left for two years, it will begin to change color and appear traces of time."
But, Your Majesty, please look at these treasure notes as if they were just printed yesterday......"
"Just printed yesterday? We remember that in the past two years, the imperial court has not printed any treasure money......"
Saying that, Zhu Di suddenly realized something, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he hurriedly picked up the treasure money and looked at it again.
Then, he stared at Guo An closely.
"Guo Qing's meaning, these treasure banknotes were not issued by the imperial court?"
Guo An nodded slowly, "Your Majesty, Weichen will never believe it, the paper used to print the treasure banknote can make the treasure banknote so brand new after two years?" ”
"Traitor!"
Zhu Di couldn't help but be furious, "Guo Qing, have you caught those bold traitors?" ”
Guo An shook his head again and again, "Your Majesty forgives me, these treasure notes were discovered by Shen Zhuang and reported to Weichen!" ”
"It's just that after Wei Chen found out that something was wrong, he hurriedly asked the housekeeper to go to the house to look for it, and he also found two ......."
"Guo Qing's mansion is also there?"
Zhu Di looked strange.
"Exactly!"
Guo An nodded slightly, "Those thieves are bold, how long has Wei Chen been in Beijing, and there are actually two in the house."
Presumably, they don't know how many ...... have been printed."
Zhu Di's face was cold, and his expression was hideous, "Okay, let's just say that the court has worked hard to control the number of treasure banknotes and wants to maintain the value of treasure money."
However, what makes us suspicious is that the entire treasure money of the Ming Dynasty is depreciating more and more! ”
Guo An said: "Please also ask Your Majesty to investigate!" ”
Zhu Di nodded slowly, and said sharply: "Those thieves dare to print and distribute treasure money privately, and they also print so much, this is stealing the court and stealing the money of the entire Ming people......
We must arrest them and exterminate the nine clans, and the culprits will be cut with a thousand knives before we can solve the hatred in our hearts......"
"That's how it should be!"
Guo An also focused on his head.
He also hated the thieves who printed pirated money, even if they printed it exactly like the imperial court, but it was still too disgusting.
"Summoning Zhao Hu, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, for us!"
Zhu Di also lost his way to the side.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Yisha hurriedly answered, and walked out quickly.
Although he is a foreigner, he also understands that some thieves are secretly printing treasure money, and then secretly spending it.
This kind of unconscionable thing, those thieves actually dare to do it!
When the summons servant came to Erhu, Erhu's whole person couldn't help but tremble.
It's been so long, and he hasn't even interrogated the Huang family.
When he arrived in the Fengtian Hall and saw Zhu Di's gloomy expression, Erhu's whole heart suddenly sank, and his face was full of panic.
"Weichen Zhao Hu see Your Majesty!"
Zhu Di didn't say anything, and directly handed the treasure money on the table to Erhu, "Zhao Hu, look at these treasure notes!" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty 1"
Seeing this, Zhao Hu's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly stepped forward and took the treasure banknote, and also looked at it seriously for a long time.
Then, his face was also full of doubts.
"Wechen is ashamed that he didn't understand His Majesty's meaning!"
Zhu Di asked again: "Do you have treasure money in your arms?" ”
Erhu hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen has it!" ”
"Take it out and compare it carefully!"
"Wechen obeys!"
Erhu didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly took out a few treasure notes from his arms, and then put them together to compare.
Immediately, his face was still full of doubts.
"Wechen is ashamed ......"
"Alas!"
Zhu Di sighed helplessly, "You didn't notice that these treasure banknotes are so new, just like the treasure money that has just been printed!" ”
Hearing this, Erhu's eyes lit up, "Your Majesty Shengming, these treasure banknotes are extremely brand-new, they should be the ...... that have just been printed."
Saying that, Erhu also reacted, and looked at Zhu Di with a shocked face, full of disbelief.
"Your Majesty, the imperial court has not printed any treasure money in the past two years, so could it be that these treasure money were all printed and distributed by thieves without permission?"
Zhu Di asked: "Hmph, as a brocade guard, why don't you know about such a major matter?" ”
"It's a dereliction of duty on the part of Weichen, please punish Your Majesty!"
Erhu hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty.
At the same time, I was terrified.
Dare to have thieves print and distribute treasure money without permission, and they really don't take them seriously.
This time, even if these brocade guards broke their legs, they would find out those thieves hiding in the shadows, and they would all be cut by a thousand knives!
"The matter of the Huang family, can there be a result?"
Zhu Di asked again.
“……”
Erhu's face stiffened, and he hurriedly pleaded guilty, "Your Majesty forgive me, the brothers in Jinyi Wei have already interrogated the three sons of the Huang family, but those people of the Huang family still don't say a word!" ”
"Incompetent!"
Zhu Di couldn't help but scolded angrily, "In the past few days, you will check the source of these treasure notes for us first!" ”
"Wechen obeys!"
Erhu hurriedly responded.
Zhu Di said again: "We'll only give you a month!" ”
Erhu said with a solemn face: "Please rest assured, if you can't find the thief who printed the treasure money without permission, Weichen will come to see it!" ”
"Very good!"
Zhu Di's expression eased slightly.
On the side, Guo An has always been an invisible person, and has been quietly watching the second tiger leave.
Zhu Di scolded directly: "A group of waste, rice buckets, as our most relied on Jinyi Guard, I don't know anything!" ”
Guo An was stunned for a moment, according to his cheek, he was not thick enough to slander others behind his back!
The other side.
The second tiger walked out of the palace with a gloomy expression, and went straight to the Jinyi Guard.
Immediately, all the commanders of Jinyiwei in Beijing were summoned, the envoys of the pacification of the Jinyi Guard, and the thousands of households!
