There were more than a dozen soldiers sitting by the pond, and when they heard this, they shook their heads like rattles: "No, no, no, Lord Captain, you can spare the little one, the little one's body is about to fall apart!

Captain Li glanced at Liu Tianbao, to be honest, he didn't have the strength himself, sat down with his ass, and beckoned: "Don't hold on, you've been standing for a few hours, aren't you tired?"

Liu Tianbao didn't say much, sat next to Captain Li, and took a sip: "Damn, it's really rich!"

Captain Li sneered: "What is the Lan family, the Wei family is a big businessman, isn't that richer?"

Liu Tianbao glanced at him: "It's not mine to have money." ”

That's right.

Captain Li looked at a pool of turquoise water: "What's the use of being greedy for so much? Even if a person is full of energy to eat, drink and have fun in this life, how many dollars can he use? ”

Liu Tianbao glanced at it, and the appearance of more than a dozen people sitting around the small pond was very funny. He snorted disapprerovitously: "I think you should think about it first, how to fish out these dozens of pieces of wood!"

There are horses in the backyard, and live pigs and live cows. When he owed two oxen to come, he put a rope on the oxen, and tied one into the water and tied it to a log, and pulled it out one by one. When it reached the eighth root, even the cow gave up struggling.

Captain Li couldn't cry or laugh, this cow is a place that can't be pulled, so he has to change it for a horse. Today should be the most difficult day for these cattle and horses, especially those cows, which were originally a few carnivorous cattle, but they didn't expect to be pulled to do such coolies.

Liu Tianbao looked at Captain Li and couldn't help laughing: "If I were that cow, I would have to think, you might as well eat me!"

Captain Li smiled, this copy is only the tip of the iceberg, and the pair of bronzes that the emperor strictly ordered to find have not yet been found. No matter how much of a crime Lan Chengjie will be convicted of later, today it is the right topic to find that pair of bronzes.

"I've heard that big families have cellars again, don't you? Do you think he will put that thing in the cellar?" asked Captain Li.

Besides, there are very few people who know Lan Chengjie's secrets, if the pair of bronzes is really in the Lan family, they must have been hidden by Lan Chengjie himself, how can others find it?

Liu Tianbao glanced at it: "Dig slowly, just dig these things out today, don't expect to finish copying them in two or three days." ”

Captain Li couldn't say that it was wrong when he was in a hurry, after all, the emperor was still waiting in the palace to hear a reply, he couldn't call the emperor, the crown princess had been waiting for too long. Two or three days is enough time for the old school to come up with a countermeasure to turn over. No, it can't be delayed any longer, no matter what, Lan Chengjie must be convicted of a crime today.

Liu Tianbao thought about it, and his eyes fell on the pile of wet golden silk nanmu. Captain Li shouted the word trespass just now, but he heard it clearly, Lan Chengjie secretly hid this thing, no matter what it was for, he was dead.

"Where is the subordinate who reported Lan Chengjie just now?"

Before Liu Tianbao's words fell, a soldier pulled a middle-aged man in his forties: "Mr. Liu, it's him." ”

The middle-aged man was originally a subordinate in charge of procurement in Lanfu, surnamed Lu Ping'an, and knelt down when he saw Liu Tianbao: "The villain Lu Ping'an kowtows to the adults!"

"How do you know that there is golden silk nanmu in this pool?" asked Liu Tianbao.

"If you go back to the adult, this nanmu was purchased by the villain from the south, and it was also the villain who took the next person to the pond one by one, so I know. Lu Ping'an replied in an orderly manner.

"Yohe, anyway, Lord Lan is your master, betraying the master, and still being so arrogant?" Liu Tianbao was a little strange.

Lu Ping'an kowtowed, raised his eyes, and showed a flattering smile: "My lord, if you can live, who wants to die?"

Oh, that's what it means. Liu Tianbao snorted, lowered his head and asked, "What you just said, do you dare to sign and draw a pledge?"

Lu Ping'an nodded: "The villain dare!"

After speaking, he took the confession and the red seal of paper and pen, signed his name, and stamped it with a red seal, and this is considered to be done. Liu Tianbao dried the ink on the paper: "Do you dare to enter the palace to meet the emperor?"

"My lord, the villain has seen the emperor, if you tell the truth, can the adult save the villain?"

"How can I save it?" asked Captain Li.

Lu Ping'an looked left and right: "My lord, the villain knows that my lord's crime will definitely not be removed, and the men and women of the Lan family will be sold outside as official slaves, and the villain has the courage to beg the lord to buy the villain, right?"

Captain Li took a sip in his heart, who would dare to buy such a thing that a seller seeks glory? Although he was disgusted in his heart, in order to let him enter the palace to testify, he still nodded, took out a piece of money from his waist bag and threw it to him: "This can be regarded as a fixed price! Mr. Liu will pay for the rest." ”

Liu Tianbao was stunned: "Okay, I'll pay for it." ”

When Lu Ping'an heard this, he knew that his little life could be saved, and said: "Adult, the villain dares to ask, what are the adults looking for?"

Liu Tianbao and Captain Li glanced at each other and asked in unison, "How do you know?"

Lu Ping'an shook his head and said: "The adults came here, didn't they come here for Li Er's case back then, no, the villain sent Li Er a meal back then, and the lord asked the villain to bring him a sentence at that time, saying that if he didn't hand over the pair of bronzes, he told his family to survive and not to die." ”

Liu Tianbao nodded, this was like Lan Chengjie's tone.

"Do you know where it is?" Captain Li pulled Lu Ping'an to his side: "This is a major matter of human life, not child's play!"

Lu Ping'an was taken aback by his sudden pull. After being busy for a while, he said: "That thing was hidden by the master himself, the villain doesn't know, but the villain knows that there is a person who knows." ”

"Who?!"

Lu Ping'an hesitated for a moment, and slowly confided: "The mother and daughter of the Lan family know. ”

Mrs. Lan is on par with Lan Chengjie, both are cunning characters, even if she knows where that thing is, she will never say it. However, the simple and kind Lan Yu is much easier to handle, and Liu Tianbao instantly added a little doubt: "How could Miss Lan know?"

As soon as Captain Li heard Liu Tianbao's rebuttal, he felt that Lu Ping'an was lying, and he grabbed his neck by the collar, and Lu Ping'an almost lost his breath: "You kid, shouldn't you be acting with us?!"

Lu Ping'an hurriedly grabbed Captain Li's wrist and bought himself a little breathing space: "Big, the adults are angry, the villains are definitely not lying!"

Captain Li let go of his hand, and Lu Ping'an sat on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Say!" Captain Li roared, and Lu Ping'an's heart trembled.

Lu Ping'an coughed for a while, and said slowly: "The master has always been protecting Miss, so Miss Li Er's case really didn't know at all, but once, when the villain heard Miss speak, he mentioned the pair of bronzes, and at that time, Mrs. Cheng also scolded Miss and ordered Miss not to mention it again." ”

Liu Tianbao stared at Lu Ping'an, it seemed that this guy was not lying: "If you say something, I will verify with Miss Lan, if there is half a lie, beware of your dog's life!"

"Don't dare, don't dare. ”

......

The emperor leaned on the dragon chair and stared at Li Lin, who was kneeling on the ground but as steady as a rock, although he had not seen many Shengdou Xiaomin, Li Lin should be the most stable one among them. His handwriting is also good, and his mind is also active, but there is always a murderous aura flickering in his two eyes, which makes people uncomfortable, probably because of the relationship that hatred has been settling in his heart for too long.

It was past noon, and the people in the study had not yet eaten. The emperor had a snack on the table, and he was embarrassed to eat it. When I heard the young eunuch at the door, Princess Chenxiang came.

Princess Chenxiang walked into the study with a smile, and Fufu said: "Father, the queen mother said that my father has been tired for a long time, and I want my daughter to send you a cup of bird's nest soup." ”

Princess Chenxiang put the soup on the table: "Father, can you taste your daughter's craftsmanship?"

The emperor glanced at Xu Wenliang, and Xu Wenliang said softly: "Your Majesty, it's already past noon, and the crown princess hasn't used dim sum, why don't you go to the imperial dining room to pass some dim sum?"

The Emperor nodded: "More of them." ”

The emperor also rewarded Li Lin with rice, but Li Lin didn't have the heart to eat, no wonder he, his family has been wronged for so many years, and now he can show the snow, at this critical moment, how can he be in the mood to eat? The emperor took the bird's nest soup and looked at him melancholy.

Xu Wenliang raised his eyes and saw that a young eunuch at the door was squeezing his eyebrows at him. Xu Wenliang said softly: "Your Majesty." ”

The emperor raised his head: "What's the matter, come in and speak." ”

Xu Wenliang beckoned, and the young eunuch bowed his head and came in: "Your Majesty, that Liu Tianbao from the Crown Princess's Mansion is waiting for the decree at the palace gate, and he also brought someone here." ”

The emperor glanced at Yuan Xi: "Call him in." ”

Liu Tianbao took Lu Ping'an and followed Xu Wenliang all the way to the study, Xu Wenliang said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, they are here." ”

Liu Tianbao glanced at Yuanxi, and knelt down for the emperor: "Grass man Liu Tianbao and Lu Ping'an, a servant of Lanfu, knock to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

The emperor looked at Liu Tianbao and couldn't help but applaud, Wei Yuanxi's people have always been so steady and mature.

"Get up, I heard that you brought a descendant of the Lan family, do you have anything to say?"

Liu Tianbao glanced at Lu Ping'an, took out his shape from his sleeve, put it up with both hands, Xu Wenliang took it with both hands, and sent it to the emperor's case.

"Emperor Qi, the little slave Liu Tianbao was ordered by the emperor to raid the mansion of Jingzhao Yin Lan Chengjie with Li Xiaowei, the original intention was to find the two bronzes in Li Er's case, but he didn't think that Lan Chengjie secretly hid dozens of golden silk nanmu, and his arrogance was clearly revealed. The little slave thought that the matter was very important, and it should not be handled by the Prince's Mansion and the Nine Gates Defense Division, but should be interrogated by the Dali Temple, and he came to ask the emperor for instructions. ”

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xu Wenliang for a while, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"How dare he?!"

"Your Majesty, all the physical evidence is now piled up next to the small pond in the Lanfu Garden, and the little slave cut a piece with a knife and brought it specially for the emperor to see. Liu Tianbao raised his hand and showed a piece of yellow and clear wood.
