The prefect Lu Zhanyuan thought that he had already said the amount of silver that Zhao Tusheng had stolen, but he didn't know that Lingyu had tapped their deaf and dumb points, so he asked the housekeeper with confidence: "Butler, how much silver did you say Zhao Tusheng stole from. The housekeeper thought for a moment and said, "Three ingots of one hundred and fifty taels." Everyone was in an uproar, and Governor Lu hurriedly said: "Butler, let's talk about it after you think about it, how much is it." The steward said, 'One hundred and fifty taels.' Lingyu said, "My lord, is this ninety-eight taels the stolen silver handed over to you by the housekeeper?" Governor Lu said: "Yes, didn't the housekeeper say ninety-eight taels when he came to report the case that day, why do you say one hundred and fifty taels now, are you having something wrong with your brain?" ’

The housekeeper was already a treacherous person, and when he saw the opportunity, he immediately changed his words: "My lord, yes, yes, it's because my brain can't remember clearly, it's ninety-eight taels." Zhang Lingyu said: "My lord, this housekeeper's preface does not match the afterword, it is simply nonsense, my lord, the matchmaker also said that the Gao family gave your government two hundred taels of silver in order to save Zhao Tusheng, and the Zhao family should also compensate for this silver?"

Governor Lu said angrily: "Bastard matchmaker, when will this mansion accept the Gao family's silver." The matchmaker's face turned white with fright, and she denied it: "My lord, the villain has never said it, and the adult has clearly investigated." Tong Yunfei, Ma Junlan, and Hao Yan said in unison: "Even if you said it, we all heard it." Gao Yuan's face turned blue and glared at the matchmaker angrily.

At this time, a maid came in from the back and walked behind Lu Zhifu and whispered a few words, Lu Zhifu was a little shocked when he heard it, Yahuan left after speaking, Lu Zhifu sorted out his emotions and said: "This mansion has urgent matters to do, you can rest for a while and then try again." After speaking, Governor Lu left through the back door.

Besides, Chang Yue'e left in front of the prefect's yamen, she went to the backyard of the prefect's yamen to check the situation, and jumped into the backyard of the prefect's yamen with a veil as soon as it was dark. After jumping around on the roof, he found the room where the prefect's wife was. Chang Yue'e lay on the roof and listened to the movement in the house. I only heard the lady in the house say, 'Little Red. You go and see when the old man can finish the case, and wait for him to eat. Xiaohong replied, "Mrs. Haode, the slave will go and ask." After speaking, he walked towards the door, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he suddenly saw a figure standing in front of him, Xiaohong was about to scream when Chang Yue'e pointed at the dumb hole, and then clicked on another place, Xiaohong couldn't move, couldn't speak, opened a pair of frightened eyes and was at the mercy of others, Chang Yue'e lifted her aside and put it down.

Madame was tracing her brows in the bright candlelight. Chang Yue'e walked up behind her and whispered, "Madame is so beautiful." Originally, Madame had seen a woman with a red veil in the mirror, and when she was in doubt, she suddenly heard a voice and tried to turn around to see clearly, to see if it was real or hallucination. Chang Yue'e stretched out her hand and put it on her shoulder and whispered, "Don't be afraid, madam, I'm not a thief or an assassin, I just want to come and make a deal with Madame." Madame felt that she had a hand on her shoulder, but she trembled but could not move, and she really did not dare to shout, and whispered, "I will not be able to do anything." Chang Yue'e said: "Just because you are the prefect's wife, have you heard of Gao Yuanwai." The lady said: "I know this person outside Gao Yuan, and I came to find the master not long ago." ’

Chang Yue'e said: "Why did Gao Yuan come to find the prefect. The lady said, "I heard that he has a crush on a girl and wants to marry her home as a daughter-in-law." Chang Yue'e said: "What is Gao Yuanwai marrying his daughter-in-law to find the prefect." The lady said, 'The girl doesn't know anything.' Although Gao Yuanwai is rich and powerful, he has a stupid son. How could any girl be willing to marry him, the girl asked what this was for. ’

Chang Yue'e said: "Let me tell you the truth, the girl Gao Yuanwai fancied was my distant cousin, who jumped into the Yellow River on the way to get married, and would rather die than marry into the Gao family, but fortunately we met us to save him, and now we want the Gao family to break the marriage contract, so we came to ask Mrs. for help." After speaking, he took out a piece of exquisite jade pendant and handed it to his wife, who took it and said, "This jade pendant is indeed exquisite, but the master will not listen to me, and I can't accept this jade pendant." As he spoke, he was about to hand it back to Chang Yue, but somehow his hand trembled and the jade pendant fell to the ground and shattered, and the lady was frightened and said, "What can I do about this, I am really sorry for the girl who broke such a haode thing." Chang Yue'e said: "You don't have to tell me I'm sorry, because the jade pendant is already yours, as long as you can help break the marriage contract between the Gao and Zhao families." ’

The lady looked embarrassed and said, "Master, he may not listen to me, so what can I do?" Chang Yue'e said: "That's easy to do, my jade pendant was bought with 100,000 taels of silver, you compensate according to the price, and I will find another way to dissolve the marriage contract." The lady said with a bitter face, "How can I have so much silver, and besides, your jade pendant is not worth 100,000 taels." Chang Yue'e said: "The jade pendant was bought with 100,000 taels of silver, don't you say it's not worth it, now I give you three choices, one is to help dissolve the marriage contract, the second is to compensate 100,000 taels of silver, and the third is to kill your whole family." As he spoke, he drew a short knife that shimmered in cold light and shook it in front of his wife's eyes and said, "I didn't force you to go to a dead end. After saying that, he put the knife away again, and the lady trembled in fright.

Chang Yue'e said: "Don't say that you are the prefect's yamen, even the inner courtyard of the palace, I can come and go freely." The lady trembled and said, "Then I'll go and talk back to the master to see if I can help." Chang Yue'e said: "You can call Yahuan to go." The lady said, "But Yahuan is not there." Chang Yue'e walked over there and lifted Yahuan over to solve the acupoint, and said to Yahuan: "Your wife has something to tell you." Yahuan walked up to Madame and said, "What does Madame command?" The lady said, 'Go and tell the master, and say that I have something urgent to find him back, and tell him to come back immediately and not make a noise.' Yahuan answered and walked out.

Governor Lu was so nervous and scared when he heard what Yahuan said, he felt that the situation was serious, so he hurriedly ordered and left. Governor Lu hurried towards the bedroom, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he shouted, "Madam, ma'am, there is something important. At this time, Chang Yue'e was already hidden, and Madame greeted her and said, "Master, you sit down and listen to me speak slowly." Governor Lu said a little impatiently: "Madam, I am in the court to try the case, you have to speak slowly." The lady said, "Don't worry, sir, I said that this matter is related to the case you are now trying." Governor Lu sat down and said, "Yes, let's talk about it." Madame recounted what had happened.

After hearing this, Governor Lu said angrily: "Bold thieves, dare to blackmail the head of this mansion, it seems that several young men and women in the lobby are in the same group as this thief, I will go and arrest them all and put them in prison, and let them know how powerful this mansion is." Madame made a look and gestured to tell him not to speak, and Governor Lu said, "Madam, what's wrong with you." As soon as he finished speaking, a short knife with a cold light pressed against his shoulder, only to hear a woman say coldly: "Master Lu, do you have the ability? Do you have the guts? Believe it or not, I'll cut off your dizzy head right now." Governor Lu was stunned and didn't know what to say. (To be continued......)
