Chapter 235 Li Mi was arrested.

Now Li Mu can be said to be the most prominent dignitary in the court today, even if he is under one person, even if he is above ten thousand people, he is not a country.

The majestic Banbi King, General Tiance, controls the most elite soldiers and horses of the Twelve Guards and Four Mansions in the entire Sui Dynasty.It can be said that almost half of the soldiers and horses of the Great Sui Dynasty are now in the hands of Li Mu.

"It's Duke Pushan's mansion!"

"King Banbi is looking for trouble with Pu Shangong!"

"Pusanggong is going to be unlucky!"

Hundreds of soldiers surrounded Pushan Gong's mansion, and many nearby people gathered together, whispering and whispering to each other.

"Go and knock on the door!" Qin Qiong said to a schoolboy behind her.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

"Feng Banbi Wang ordered to come to investigate the case, hurry up and open the door." A Xiaoxiao, a member of the Tiance Army, waved his casserole-sized fist and slammed on the door vigorously.The gate of Pu Shan Gong's mansion was smashed and clanged.

The gatekeeper sneaked a peek through the crack of the door, good guy, there are all well-armored soldiers outside, and the outside of the house has been surrounded by water.

"My little girl!"

"The master must have committed something?" The porter thought to himself, and Sa Yazi ran towards the inner courtyard.

Don't look at the concierge in Pushan Gong's mansion who seems to be quite old, but his legs and feet are really nimble, and he can run no slower than young people.One of the shoes under his feet was missing, but he didn't even notice it.

At this time, Li Mi is having breakfast.Seeing his concierge rushing in, Li Mi couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

"old."

"Master, it's not good, soldier, the soldiers have surrounded our house." The old concierge said out of breath.

Li Mi's face changed slightly, and then returned to normal.In fact, Li Mi already knew that this day would come sooner or later.Above the court, although there were quite a few officials surnamed Li, the ones who could win Han Wang Yang Liang's attention were either those in high positions, or the disciples of a powerful family like him.

Although Li Mi is not a big official, but his branch is the direct descendant of the Guanlongmen Clan Li Clan. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Just because of the word Li Clan, Li Mi is worthy of Han King Yang Liang's wooing.

Li Mi knew in his heart that there were actually not many people in the court who could be worthy of Han Wang Yang Liang's personal correspondence, and there were actually not many people with the surname Li.Even if Li Mu checks one by one, he will be found sooner or later.

Therefore, as soon as Li Mi returned to the house yesterday, he had already destroyed all the accounts, letters, and even the gold, silver and jewels.

Li Mi thought to himself, you can investigate, as long as you can't find evidence, what can you do with me.Thinking of this, Li Mi didn't panic.

"I, Li Mi, am not afraid of the shadows slanting, let them in." Li Mi said, and personally took the family and several servants to open the door for Xu Maogong and others.

"Squeak!"

"Master Xu, General Qin, I don't know if you two came to my house, what are you talking about?" The door of Pu Shangong's mansion opened, and Li Mi greeted him with a smile, showing no panic at all.

"Investigate the case by order!" Xu Maogong said coldly.

"Investigate the case, investigate it!"

"But then again, I, Li Mi, am a clean and honest official, so there is nothing to investigate." Before Li Mi could finish speaking, Qin Qiong and Xu Maogong had already rushed in with people.

After a while, Li Mike was not so calm anymore.Why do you say that, because Qin Qiong, Xu Maogong took people to nowhere else, and went straight to the well in the backyard of his house.

Li Mi was sweating a little. The bottom of the well was seven or eight boxes of gold, silver and jewelry.Qin Qiong and the others went straight here, could it be that he was given water?

It stands to reason that if you hide something in the well, even if you search carefully, you may not be able to find it, let alone go straight to the well with a clear purpose.

As mouthfuls of boxes were salvaged, Li Mi's face was a bit ugly. These things came from wrong sources, and Li Mi was afraid that something might be discovered.

Not long after, all eight boxes were salvaged, and the lid of the box was opened, and the people who were shining with jewels and jewels couldn't open their eyes.

"Military division, there are a total of eight boxes of things, two boxes of gold, and the rest are all gold, silver and jewelry." The soldier reported after counting.

Xu Maogong cast a glance at Li Mi, and asked indifferently: "Pu Shangong, where did these things come from, and why did they sink into the well again?"

Li Mi was taken aback for a moment, and then his expression returned to normal. He pretended to be calm and said: "Military Master, this is some money I accumulated from doing business."

"Ha ha!"

"Why do you sink into the well when you earn money from business? Couldn't the storehouse of your Pushan Gongfu hold it?" Qin Qiong shouted coldly.

Li Mi narrowed his eyes, and said seriously: "General Qin, that's not what you said. Naturally, there are gold and silver in the warehouse. The reason why they sank into the well is because the money is not clean. The silver earned by the brothel and the casino is naturally It’s better to wash it off.”

Brothels and casinos, which are half-grey businesses, naturally have officials from the court as the backstage.If Xu Maogong had no idea, Li Mi might have really fooled him.However, before Xu Maogong came, he had already found out the origin of these gold ingots.In this way, how can Li Mi's few words can scare Xu Maogong.

"Where did things come from, you can find out once you check." Xu Maogong frowned, waved his hand, and signaled the officials of the household department to come forward and count the gold.

Li Mi panicked when he saw the officials of the household department holding the accounts and checking the gold ingots one by one.

There is no way to find out the way out of such things as jewelry and jade, but these golds are all official ingots, and there are casting dates on them. This investigation must reveal the truth.Li Mi was flustered yesterday, he didn't think about the incident of gold.

Today, when I saw the officials of the Ministry of Households checking numbers one by one, I suddenly understood in my heart that my negligence might have cost my life.

Thinking of this, Li Mi's legs went limp, and he sat down on the ground.

Xu Maogong didn't care about Li Mi, now that the evidence is solid, even if Li Mi has eight mouths, he can't tell the origin of these gold, silver and jewels.

Not long after, the household department had already counted all the gold ingots.As expected, all these gold ingots were military expenses allocated to Han Wang Yang Liang.

"Mr. Xu, all counts have been completed."

"Although these official ingots have different years, without exception, all of them are military expenditures allocated to Taiyuan." The household minister reported.

"Pu Shangong, what else do you have to say?" Xu Maogong asked Li Mi.

The servant's words had already broken all of Li Mi's defenses, and he really had nothing to explain now.

"Nothing to say."

"If you want to kill or cut, let me listen to you." Li Mi closed his eyes and simply smashed the jar.

"Seal up all the physical evidence and tie Pushangong up." After Xu Maogong ordered, he said to the Minister of the Household Department: "Regarding the origin of these gold ingots, please issue a document from the Household Department."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

"Cooperate with the prince to handle the case, it should be." The servant of the household department nodded repeatedly.
