Chapter 801 Burden
Xie Chuying twisted the quilt and leaned softly into King Ping's arms.

She said coquettishly: "As long as you don't find out about the prince, you'll be fine. If the emperor wants to investigate, let him do it for an unimportant person."

King Ping glanced at her, his face was uncertain, she stood up and whispered into his ear, and King Ping's brows gradually relaxed.

King Ping lowered his head and kissed her neck, and said: "It seems that Xie's daughter is really extraordinary, not only beautiful, but also so smart that men can't stop in bed."

On the spur of the moment, he suppressed the person again, and had a lot of fun, until the middle of the night before he was willing to leave.

***
In the blink of an eye, Duke Qing and Tang Lei were imprisoned for several days. The weather is still very cold. Tang Lei is fine for his young age, but Duke Qing is an old man. torment.

Tang had nowhere to ask for help, so she had to raise money by herself. She sold all the jewelry that could be sold, and also sold the two shops that were used as dowry in the past, and sent all the money raised to manage. Qing Guogong would suffer less in prison, and hoped that officials from the DPRK and China would help him to say a few words.

It's a pity that all the money was taken out, but no sound was heard.

Now that the father and son of the Duke's Mansion are in prison, the Duke's Mansion is considered over.

Duke Qing is old, the Duke's mansion is withered, and Tang Lei is a failure, so there is nothing worth helping.

What's more, this is a matter of both stolen goods and conclusive evidence. The possibility of overturning the case is very slim, and few people dare to help speak out.Even the Seventh Prince and Elder Xu Ge remained silent.

At this time, Tang Corps stuffed all the money in, and he couldn't do anything without it.Those officials would only feel that the money they sent was not enough to fit their teeth, so how could they try their best to help them deal with it.

It's just that Tang's family is a woman, and there is no other way but to do everything possible to raise money to manage it.

In just a few days, she haggarded a lot.

Meng Yunxiao was also very annoyed when she saw that she kept sending money out, and said: "Earlier when I needed money to do things up and down, you insisted that you had no money, but now that something happened to your father and brother, you are sending a lot of money out Throw money!"

Tang stared at him, his eye sockets were slightly sunken due to the rapid thinning of his cheeks, and said viciously: "I use my money, and it has nothing to do with you!"

In the end, Tang Corps couldn't afford any more money.

On this day, a colleague of Meng Yunxiao's who was not far or close on weekdays invited him to a restaurant for a drink in the evening, and booked a private room in a certain restaurant.

Meng Yunxiao was bored in his heart, so he agreed.

In the evening, he arrived as scheduled, but when he went to the private room of Tianzihao, he saw that there were no colleagues there, but two unfamiliar drinkers.

Just as the clerk came out with an empty wine jug, Meng Yunxiao grabbed him and gave the name of his colleague, saying that the private room had been booked.

The waiter had an impression, so he apologized: "It is true that a guest requested to book this private room earlier, but you have seen it, the guest, the guests in this room have not finished drinking since noon, it is really not good. What a shame!"

The waiter put the jug aside, trotted back, and said with a smile: "Guest officer, wait a moment, I will go in and urge them to make room for you as soon as possible. If it weren't for the other private rooms, they would also be blocked." Once it’s settled, I’ll change the smaller one for you.”

Meng Yunxiao had no choice but to wait outside the door. Seeing the guy enter the private room, he tactfully reminded the two drinkers in the room that the time had passed and the next round of guests was waiting outside.

Fortunately, although the two drinkers were drunk, they were reasonable and did not embarrass the buddy. After dawdling for a while, they stood up slowly and staggered towards the outside.

Meng Yunxiao stepped aside, and the other party smelled of alcohol, which made him very uncomfortable.He showed a slight look of aloofness and displeasure that scholars are accustomed to.

After the drinkers left, the waiter hurried in to clear the table before inviting Meng Yunxiao in to take a seat.

"Excuse me, what kind of wine do you want, sir?" the waiter asked.

Meng Yunxiao said: "Let's talk about it when my friend arrives."

"Good." The man put down a pot of water and went out.

Meng Yunxiao looked around the room, and saw that in addition to tables and chairs, there was also a low couch against the wall, which was convenient for drunk people to rest on the low couch.

As a result, when he took a look, he inadvertently saw a bundle on the low couch.

He thought it might have been left behind by the two drinkers earlier.

Meng Yunxiao got up and walked over, carrying a bag and planning to hand it to the waiter at the restaurant, but he didn't want to mention it, it was quite heavy.

He opened the bag to have a look, his expression was startled when he saw it, he paused for a moment, then quickly gathered the bag and tied it up again.

Meng Yunxiao opened the door of the private room and looked out, and saw that no one noticed it, the waiter was busy greeting other guests, and the two drinkers before did not come back, so he took the bag and walked inconspicuously. Leaving the private room, walked out of the wine shop, got into the carriage and hurried towards home.

When Meng Yunxiao arrived home, it was already dark.

He hurried all the way back to his yard and went straight into the study.

It happened that Mrs. Tang was also in the courtyard, seeing him enter the study room and close the door as soon as he came back, sneaky, he couldn't help walking to the door with a few steps, pushing the door and barging in.

Meng Yunxiao was startled, looked up and saw Tang, and immediately cursed angrily: "Bitch, get out!"

Tang's eyes immediately fell on the burden on the desk.

At this time, the bag has been opened, revealing a corner, and only some yellow light can be seen faintly flowing out.

Meng Yunxiao quickly covered up a corner of the burden.But Tang shi walked over quickly, and quickly lifted the cloth with his eyes and hands.

The golden object immediately lit up the eyes of the two of them.

That's right, what's in the bag is nothing else, but gold bars of substantial weight!
Tang asked: "So much gold, where did you get it?"

Meng Yunxiao said, "It's none of your business!"

Tang immediately rushed forward to grab it, but Meng Yunxiao raised her hand to block it, but she grabbed a corner of the bundle and pulled it out of the desk, pulling the gold bars in the bundle to the ground and scattered all over the floor.

Tang quickly knelt down to pick it up again.

When she desperately needed money and had no other way out, these gold bars came to her door, how could she not make her jealous.

And Meng Yunxiao has been extremely poor for so long, and he also needs a sum of money to manage the officialdom, so that his future road will be easier.

So the husband and wife scuffled and scrambled in the study.

Tang couldn't grab it, and said out of breath: "If you don't give it to me today, I will report you! Neither you nor I can get it!"

Meng Yunxiao hated her teeth, but there was nothing she could do. In the end, she had to agree to give her half, and said: "You and I should not move for the next two days. I picked this up at the wine shop. If someone comes to the door, there must be a response."
