Chapter 228
Qi Changjin jumped down from the tree holding Yingchu in his arms until the Imperial Forest Army disappeared.
"The emperor is really suspicious of Prince Chen." A cold smile appeared on the corner of Yingchu's lips, "This time, even with the protection of the Queen Mother, Prince Chen will not be able to bear it."
Qi Changjin also looked very relaxed: "No matter what the emperor does to Prince Chen, at least our Qi family has thrown out the hot potato."
No one doesn't love gold and silver money. His first thought when he saw the gold and silver was to use it to equip the Western Frontier Army. I will let it go, and maybe bite them back at that time.
Now, with the help of the emperor, confiscate these gold and silver into the national treasury, and then find a way to get them, that will be an upright military salary!
"There is no starlight at all tonight, and it looks like it will rain tomorrow." Yingchu looked at Qi Changjin and smiled, feeling happy and happy about everything.
Qi Changjin felt that Yingchu's eyes were amazingly bright, and there seemed to be some emotion in his eyes that was about to break through. He could see that Yingchu hated and hated Prince Chen very much, but he didn't know the reason.
"Let's go back," Yingchu said, "After a while, it's time for Qi Xiushen to send someone over to check."
As soon as Qi Changjin left with Yingchu on his front foot, a person entered Xiyuan cautiously on his back foot, and then ran out from inside in shock, and quickly ran back to Qi's house.
When Qi Xiushen heard the spy's report, he was stunned for a moment. He stared blankly at the visitor: "What did you say?"
"A group of people broke into the other garden, killed a group of men in black, and robbed dozens of large iron boxes!" At the same time, Prince Chen's Mansion also got the news.
Li Cangze had already fallen asleep. He put on a long coat and walked outside, looking at his confidant Hong Xing who was kneeling on the ground: "What Bieyuan, the man in black? Tell me clearly!"
Hong Xing glanced at Mu Nuanqing, the side concubine who came out from behind, and said hesitantly: "It's the other garden that my empress just bought, and my empress handed over the other garden to Young Master Qi for remodeling, and second young master Qi got lucky at night. Dozens of large iron boxes went in, but they were robbed."
Mu Nuanqing didn't think much of it for a while, and immediately said angrily: "Whoever dares to rob in the other garden of this palace, they must be caught and beheaded!"
Li Cangze's face became serious: "What's in the box, did you find out where the robber came from?"
Hong Xing looked like he was about to cry: "Someone saw something glittering from a distance, probably it was gold! Those people robbed things and entered the palace in a big way, they must be the Imperial Forest Army!"
Mu Nuanqing's expression froze instantly: "How is this possible!"
"The servant also hopes it's impossible," Hong Xing said, "but someone saw it with their own eyes!"
Mu Nuanqing supported the chair next to her, her face was pale, she didn't understand at this moment, Qi Changsheng borrowed her place to hide the stolen money, but was caught by the emperor on the spot, she was innocently involved, I'm afraid she couldn't explain it!
"My lord! It's not good, the imperial army has rushed into the mansion!" The butler ran over sweating profusely and told, "The imperial army said that the lord is invited to enter the palace!"
Mu Nuanqing's face turned even paler, and she eagerly grabbed Li Cangze's sleeve, "My lord, this concubine was deceived, and this concubine didn't expect..."
Before she finished speaking, Li Cangze shook off her hand, and walked out of the room with only his long clothes on.
"My lord! My lord!" Mu Nuanqing chased after her and ran into the yard, but Li Cangze left without looking back.
Nanny cautiously went over to support Mu Nuanqing: "Your Majesty, what happened?"
"Get out!" Mu Nuanqing slapped her, her eyes were red with anger and her face was ferocious.
"Zhou Yuerong!" Mu Nuanqing gritted her teeth and read the little Zhou's name, "You bitch dare to harm me, I won't let you go!"
Li Cangze went back and changed his clothes. While walking towards the front yard, he thought to himself, finally here!That day when he retreated from Duke Qi's mansion, he didn't feel any peace of mind. He always felt that Hua Yingchu must have another trick. As expected, this kind of framing trick was Hua Yingchu's handiwork without even thinking about it!
When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, all they could see was the black imperial forest army, which was twice as big as the previous case of selling smuggled salt.
Li Cangze frowned. This time, it seemed that the matter was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
Even though he was mentally prepared, when he saw the emperor in the imperial study and threw a gold ingot engraved with the year name of "God Bless" in front of him, Li Cangze couldn't help but his heart sank, and there was a bit of panic in his eyes.
Holding the gold ingot, he tried his best to remain calm. He had already remelted the gold and silver in private workshops, so there is no way it still exists. It must be a forgery!
He settled down, and asked with doubts on his face: "Brother Huang, is there something wrong with this gold ingot?"
Emperor Ming sneered: "Prince Chen, you are still pretending to be a fool with me! This gold ingot, and dozens of boxes of gold and silver that I confiscated tonight, are the 40 disaster relief silver that you corrupted in the first year of God Bless! You hid the stolen money in Duke Qi's mansion, and because the secret room was accidentally exposed, you transferred it to a rebuilt garden! Prince Chen, you are really smart and bold!"
Li Cangze paused, the emperor's words sounded too reasonable, if it were him, he would be suspicious.
"Brother Emperor, I have found out that my younger brother was wronged!" Li Cangze said, "The embezzlement case of the disaster bank has been proven to have nothing to do with my younger brother. Even if there is a gold ingot with the year name of 'God Bless', it does not mean that it is the banker of the disaster! Besides, the Qi family It is the Qi family who should be held accountable for the privately hidden money, it has nothing to do with the younger brother!"
Emperor Ming accused Li Cangze of injustice, there was a lot of commotion in the middle of the night, both the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were alarmed, and they drove to the Imperial Study Room together.
In the middle of the night, Eunuch Chang Shun went to Duke Qi's mansion to announce the decree, and it was said that all the young and old of the Qi family would enter the palace.
The people in the second room were already trembling with fright, upon hearing the emperor's summons, Qi Zhou wished he could faint, and when he boarded the carriage, his legs were limp.
Second Lord Qi had already told them, and he told them again and again on the way: "You all remember, no one is allowed to say anything wrong, the gold and silver have nothing to do with us, we just follow the order of Prince Chen and the side concubine to put the box Transport it to another garden, and don't know anything else!"
Several people nodded repeatedly.
Although they would offend Prince Chen because of this, they can only seek self-protection in times of crisis, and they don't care too much about other things!
"Father, do we really have to give up so much money?" Qi Changsheng was in pain.
"If you don't give up money, you will give up your life!" Qi Erye's face was gloomy and terrible. This time their loss was so great that he even found it difficult to breathe.
Little Zhou kept pinching her fingers. Among the family, her situation was the worst.
If she had known that such an accident would happen, she would not have proposed to transfer the gold and silver to the side concubine's other garden, and even if she had suggested it, she would never have talked to the side concubine in person.Now the side concubine must hate her to death!
