Chapter 46
Gongsun Ce used the binoculars to look at the situation on the opposite side, and then handed it to Yao Wenlin with a smirk: "Look at them, they are all good guys."

Yao Wenlin took the binoculars and looked at them from left to right. Suddenly, he fixed on Jiang Youzhi.

His hands moved slightly, from top to bottom, his eyes sparkled with excitement, he immediately went down the stairs, and walked quickly to the railing, wanting to see more clearly.

Seeing this, Gongsun Ce smiled maliciously in his eyes, and immediately followed him, jokingly saying, "Brother Wenlin, what's wrong with you?"

Yao Wenlin looked at the people in the binoculars reluctantly, and said, "I didn't expect Mao Er to be more and more capable. This batch of goods is not bad."

After speaking, he returned to the high platform, raised his bow, moved his neck slightly, and aimed at the opposite side.

Suddenly an arrow shot across Jiang Youzhi's right shoulder at high speed, and at the same time cut off her clothes, exposing her snow-white shoulder immediately.

This action aroused the excitement of the crowd, all of them looked at the opposite situation with binoculars, and some were gearing up for a match with Yao Wenlin.

Liang Huazhi, the eldest son of Zhongshu's servant Sifang, also got up immediately, took the arrow and drew the bow, only to see that the clothes on the right side of a female slave were all wiped off, revealing her obscene clothes, and her arm was also cut with blood.

The female slave couldn't help begging for mercy trembling all over, but it attracted more and more rampant ridicule from those people.

Jiang Youzhi's hands were tied, no matter how hard she struggled with her hands, she couldn't break free, but she saw a person opposite, holding down the binoculars, watching her every move.

The corner of Yao Wenlin's mouth was smiling, he had always been at odds with Liang Huazhi, so he immediately put down the binoculars and shot another arrow with his bow.

Jiang Youzhi couldn't help squinting her eyes from the arrow rushing towards her at such a high speed. The arrow went straight to her waist, causing the belt to slip off instantly.

Amid the clapping and applause of the crowd, Yao Wenlin wanted to shoot another arrow, but this arrow would probably be too much, Jiang Youzhi closed his eyes and turned his head to the side, but still did not shed a tear.

Suddenly, a large number of guards appeared, and Pei Xun strolled in front of everyone. He picked up the binoculars and scanned the situation on the opposite side, but his hand stopped suddenly. His hand holding the binoculars trembled slightly because of anger.

Because the people present were all dudes, bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, seeing that it was Pei Xun, they didn't dare to say anything.

He turned his head slightly, and said to Ah Chang, "Ah Chang."

Ah Chang immediately understood that he was going to take the guards to the opposite side, but he was blocked by people who had ambushed all around.

Seeing that Gongsun Ce said in a bad tone: "Master Pei is also interested in coming to Liuyue Pavilion?"

Pei Xun ignored him, and just motioned Ah Chang to rush out, but a person suddenly walked out of the guest room beside him: "Master Pei, do you want to play a game too?"

Su Qian'an was followed by a large number of officers and soldiers, it seemed that he had been prepared for a long time, and then he said to the guards beside him: "Bring people up."

When Jiang Youzhi was brought over, someone bound her from behind and put a knife on her neck.

Originally, she didn't like to cry very much, but for some reason, in this situation, she couldn't stop crying when she saw Pei Xun.

Pei Xun's hand holding the fan tightened unconsciously, and he looked sharply at Su Qi'an: "What do you want?"

Su Qi'an suddenly smiled: "Human, I can return it to you temporarily, but you have to give me some things."

Pei Xun naturally understood what he was talking about. He glanced at Jiang Youzhi who was naked at the moment, and then looked sideways at the other people on the field.

Everyone couldn't help feeling suffocated, especially Yao Wenlin, who even took a step back unnaturally.

Pei Xun slowly took out the paper roll from his sleeve, Su Qi'an asked someone to take back the paper roll when he saw it, and after presenting it to him, he opened it to look at it, with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Let me go!"

The moment Jiang Youzhi was pushed out, the sharp arrow behind her followed suit. Seeing this, Pei Xun rushed forward, turned her around with a fan, and tried her best to protect Jiang Youzhi in his arms.

Jiang Youzhi's legs went limp, and she fell directly into his hands. She stretched out her hand and tugged at her crumbling skirt, buried her head in his arms, and said in a trembling voice, "Take me away..."

Only then did Pei Xun pick her up by the waist, and when he got into the carriage, a guard came to report: "My lord, Ran Longzhong committed suicide in prison."

When Pei Xun heard this, he suddenly punched the car wall angrily.

Seeing this, Jiang Youzhi covered his clenched fist with trembling hands, and looked at him timidly.

Pei Xun raised his eyes and looked at the red corners of her eyes at the moment, then returned to his previous appearance, and calmly said: "Take a break."

About five days later, because Pei Xun punished many officials, some people in the court privately began to mend the loopholes they had caused.

Although he had achieved quite a lot, Pei Xun was very suspicious when he looked at the list submitted by the household department today.

Master Cui, the privy secretary, made up 60 taels in just three days, which is really incredible.

Jiang Youzhi, who was rubbing ink beside him, couldn't help saying: "The monthly salary of a sixth-rank official in the imperial court is one hundred shi. If he can make up so much silver in three days, I'm afraid he will go bankrupt."

Pei Xun nodded and said: "I ordered people to monitor him closely, and found that he is still addicted to extravagance these days."

Jiang Youzhi was a little puzzled: "Even if he embezzled Ku Yin, how could it be possible for him to voluntarily spit out so much all of a sudden?"

Pei Xun said conveniently: "There is no problem with the treasury silver that the household department counted in front of me today, but it is hard to guarantee whether there will be any problem after it is put into the warehouse."

It was only then that Jiang Youzhi realized that the problem might be with those Ku Yins: "They have done shady things. In front of you, the minister in charge, they naturally have to hide their eyes and ears. Therefore, it is most appropriate to count them secretly."

Jiang Youzhi was good at disguise, so he and Pei Xun turned into little eunuchs, ready to go to the bank.

The two sneaked in smoothly. Jiang Youzhi picked up a silver ticket and found that there was nothing wrong with it, but when he pulled out one from the bottom, he found that the feel and stamp were not quite right.

She hurriedly said to Pei Xun on the other side: "My lord, there is something wrong with this one."

Pei Xun, who was checking the silver, went over immediately, took the silver note in her hand, checked it, and said in a deep voice: "Fake."

Jiang Youzhi flicked the bank notes on the bottom layer: "Only the top layer is real."

They checked several boxes one after another, and the situation was the same, but the box on the east side was full of real banknotes. It turned out that this was the reason for Master Cui's generosity. The banknotes he made up were fake!

The most hateful thing is that the officials of the Ministry of Households turn a blind eye to the fake bank notes, which is simply hateful!
"squeak"

The door of the bank was suddenly opened. Seeing this, Pei Xun immediately pulled Jiang Youzhi to hide behind the iron frame on the other side.

I saw a large number of officers and soldiers filing in with torches in their hands, and Shen Chaorong, the servant of the household department, commanded sharply: "It's all clear, the replacement is from the east."
