Chapter 190, there is a mountain of gold in the dark

[The seventy-first year of the Great Qiankang Yuan, April 23, noon, the Great Qianhu Department]

Before Xu Ke came to the door of the household, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and in the middle of the day, it was the peak of the sun.

He slowly walked into the door of the main office of the household, and a dazzling sun followed him slowly.

"Hey, it's Lord Xu here!"

Two middle-aged officials rushed out of the household room, saw Xu Ke, and hurriedly bowed their hands to this brightly dressed and dazzling blue robe.

Although Xu Ke couldn't name the two officials, he vaguely remembered their faces, and remembered that when he came to the household department on duty the first day, it was these two people who blocked him and refused to let him in, and wanted to ask him for some "entrance money".

Xu Ke still remembers that that day, he had the intention to teach these two scoundrels a lesson, and when he saw the officials step forward to stop them, he bumped his shoulders slightly, and immediately smashed the two officials into a "dog gnawing mud"! Moreover, the place where the two fell to the ground was still a big pile of horse manure!

Xu Ke smiled and asked, "Is Lord Qiu here?"

The official hurriedly said: "Yes, please be there!"

"Aren't you going to report it?"

"Oh! Lord Xu is the tall foot of Lord Qiu! Who doesn't know about our household?! Besides, Lord Qiu has already commanded, as long as Lord Xu comes, there is no need to pass through!"

Xu Ke strode proudly and stepped into the main office of the household department.

He looked at the houses with varying heights and heights, the wide and narrow corridors, and the corner of the courtyard, where there were a few old sycamores with mottled bark, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of emotion in his heart.

After a few months, I, Xu Ke, are back again!

Five months ago, when he stepped into the door of the door for the first time, his identity was just an experience from the seventh grade, he remembered that that day was November 25, the 70th year of Kangyuan, and the sunshine on that day was also like today, warm and bright, shining on his body, warm and very comfortable......

In a blink of an eye, five months have passed, the world is changeable, he has experienced the ups and downs of the sea at a young age, and has several ups and downs in the officialdom.

Fortunately, his luck has always been good, although he was demoted to a civilian by the Son of Heaven several times, framed several times, and almost lost his life, but in the end, every time he was able to save the day, not only was his life safe, but his official position was also promoted all the way.

Today's Xu Ke, at the age of only twenty-one, is already a member of the Tsing Yi Wei who inspects thousands of households from the fourth grade, which is something that has not been done in three hundred years in the court of Daqian!

Sometimes, even Xu Ke himself feels that his luck is too good to be outrageous!

It is no wonder that most of the entire Daqian court, whether old ministers or new officials, were envious and hated inexplicably after hearing that Xu Ke could be promoted so quickly......

Xu Ke strode into the signing room of the household Shangshu, and when Qiu Mingli saw him come in, he immediately said with a smile:

"No disease, you're here! The old man just wants to see you!"

Xu Ke also replied with a smile: "Sir, the students have long wanted to see you coming!"

At that moment, Qiu Mingli ordered someone to make a pot of good tea, and the master and apprentice sat down in the signing room, drinking tea and laughing and talking, and chatted for a while. Qiu Mingli asked Xu Ke how he went to Jinding Mountain to save people, and Xu Ke answered truthfully one by one.

Qiu Mingli talked to Xu Ke about that night, the king of Wei, Li Jin, was imprisoned at night, saying that Xu Ke was moved to Jinding Mountain to save people, and this Shangshu Lord encouraged Xu Ke to be careful of the justice of the world in the future, for the well-being of the people, and for the safety of the society......

Speaking of Li Jin, the king of Wei, Qiu Mingli's words changed, and he immediately talked about Mingyue, and he asked Xu Ke, how to settle Mingyue girl in the future? No matter what, you can't have anything to do with Mingyue.

Xu Ke asked sneeringly:

"Sir, can you allow Miss Mingyue to stay in the Autumn Leaf Cottage for the time being, and let her be a maid in your Grass Hall like Xiaoyu?"

"Nonsense!" Qiu Mingli immediately waved his hand again and again, said nothing, and settled Mingyue in his thatched hall.

Xu Ke thought to himself, I can't take Mingyue back to Xu's mansion, and Mr. Qiu refuses to agree to take her in, so for the sake of today's plan, I have to discuss with Miss Yiqing tomorrow.

......

After talking, Qiu Mingli asked:

"No disease, you usually come to the Autumn Leaf Cottage, how did you think of it today, and went to the household to see the old man?"

Xu Ke remembered Pei Caibao's entrustment, and he hurriedly asked:

"Sir, do you know, what is the relationship between Pei Caibao and King Wei?"

Qiu Mingli shook his head and remained silent.

"Don't hide it, sir, the student is here to bring a word for Pei Caibao, he said that he wants to see Mr.!"

"Pei Caibao wants to see me, what's the matter with him?"

"He didn't say much, just said that as long as Mr. was willing to see him, he could save his life!"

"This is strange, what ability does the old man have, and he can still save his Pei Caibao's life!"

Qiu Mingli stroked his three locks of beard, thought for a moment, and then said:

"After all, it's a human life, and it doesn't hurt for the old man to go and see him! No disease, you go back first, and when the time comes, the old man will come to your Tsing Yi Guard!"

"Good!"

So, Xu Ke said goodbye to Qiu Mingli, left the household, and went back to his official room in Tsing Yi.

At this time, the inspection of thousands of official offices has been cleaned by the guards. Xu Ke looked around and found that nothing else had changed, except for the official documents on the table, which had been piled up.

It has been nearly 20 days and nights since he was imprisoned in the Imperial Prison. Although he was in prison, there was no new person to replace him in the position of inspecting a thousand households, so he still had to complete the daily official documents that should be reviewed in his office.

Xu Ke didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly sat down in his own Taishi chair exclusive to the adults of Qianhu, unfolded the documents, and read them one by one......

The copper kettle is dripping, the time is rushing, and in a blink of an eye, it is already unitary time.

"No disease, the old man is here!" Outside the door, Qiu Mingli's calm and deep voice sounded.

At that moment, Xu Ke took Qiu Mingli and walked into the secret room where Pei Caibao was held.

At this time, Pei Caibao, after being simply treated, bandaged slightly, Rao is like this, Qiu Mingli saw Pei Caibao's miserable appearance, and still couldn't help frowning.

"Pei Caibao, why are you looking for the old man?" Qiu Mingli asked in a deep voice with a cold face.

After Lang Zhong's treatment, Pei Caibao obviously recovered a lot, and when he saw that Xu Ke had brought Qiu Ming as promised, he was overjoyed and said busily:

"Lord Qiu, Pei has a clever plan to dedicate to Lord Qiu!"

Qiu Mingli snorted coldly and said disdainfully:

"What can you do?"

Pei Caibao smiled and said, "Dare to ask Lord Qiu, what is your biggest worry now?"

"Of course it's silver!" Qiu Mingli blurted out.

"What? Do you want to donate some silver for my treasury?" asked Qiu Mingli immediately.

He thought to himself, it seems that this Pei Caibao wants to donate silver to save his life, but now that the treasury is in serious deficit, what use can he do with a little silver taels donated by you! I'm afraid that your life still can't be saved!

Pei Caibao said: "That's what Pei meant!"

Qiu Mingli sneered: "How much silver do you want to donate? Do you have 10,000 taels?"

Pei Caibao struggled to squeeze out a smile and replied:

"Don't hide it from Lord Qiu, the silver taels that Pei wants to donate are more than 10,000!"

"Can you donate 100,000?"

"Hehehe! Lord Qiu, you also underestimate Pei someone too much!"

"Could it be...... You can donate a million?!"

At this moment, Qiu Mingli couldn't help but be a little impressed by Pei Caibao, and he said in his heart, if you can get one million taels of silver in one go, I can intercede for you, and when the time comes, His Royal Highness King Wei will be happy, and maybe he will be able to save you from death.

Unexpectedly, Pei Caibao smiled again and replied conclusively:

"The silver that Pei wants to donate is 10 million taels!"

"Ten million?"

At this time, not only Qiu Mingli in the secret room, but even Xu Ke, who was standing far behind Qiu Mingli and standing by the door, couldn't help but change his face when he heard it.

Both of them were shocked and inexplicable in their hearts, and they said in their hearts, could it be that this former Tsing Yi Wei Qianhu actually hid a golden mountain in the mansion?
