As Bai Changkong's first disciple, when Bai Changkong married his granddaughter, Zhao Yao took his two sons and went to Cuiwei Peak early in the morning to watch the ceremony.
In Zhao Yao's family, only his wife, two daughters-in-law, and several grandchildren are left.
The Zhao family's mansion is not big. After all, it is the public property of Guanglu Temple. It is rented to officials of the yamen at a low price. There are only three entrances to the courtyard, and there are only seventeen or eighteen servants in the house.
Ahu broke into the yard first. Before the two servants in the front yard could figure out what happened, they were knocked unconscious by the flying bricks and rubble.
In the courtyard, the screams of women and children rang out, and a large group of people swarmed in. The little three entered the courtyard and were immediately packed to the brim.
In all directions, the tall buildings of the neighbors next door were also occupied, with strong bows and crossbows deployed, guarding all possible escape corners.
A little further away, across two streets, another mansion was also buzzing with excitement.
Yinyuan, who was very interested, pulled Lu Qian and strode in: "The owner of this house is an official? An official of Guanglu Temple? Where is the person? Catch him, catch him, old fish, torture him severely, I want to know everything
."
Without any resistance, Zhao Yao's family was escorted out by the guards.
Zhao Yao's wife, a well-maintained woman, looked blankly at the red palace robe on Lu Qian, then looked at the robes on the captains and warriors behind Lu Qian, and suddenly shook her head.
He knelt on the ground and screamed at the top of his lungs.
"A man who can kill a thousand swords, I know you can't do anything out of your mind!"
"This old immortal, I know that he has only been focusing on being a minor official these years. Those who entered Guanglu Temple in the same year as him were promoted one by one and were promoted to other places. He was the only one who squatted motionless as a shabby supervisor.
There must be something wrong!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu1uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuachu
Lu Qian waved his hand, and several young eunuchs rushed up, blocked Mrs. Zhao Yao's mouth with handkerchiefs, and carried her aside.
According to the Dayin Law, if you know that your husband has violated the national law, but he hides it and does not report it, he must be punished according to the same crime. However, this law is contrary to the principle of "hiding relatives from each other" advocated by the literary and educational gentlemen, which the literary and educational gentlemen now advocate
One of the "reforms" is to abolish the law that "if you hide it and don't retaliate, you will be punished with the same crime".
Ahu led a group of tall and powerful bodyguards, carrying iron rods, iron pestles and other heavy objects, and moved around in various rooms.
There was a constant loud crash, and houses collapsed one after another as if they were being hit by a thousand wild boars. Dust was everywhere.
Yinyuan's face turned red with excitement and his body was trembling slightly.
"This is a house raid, this is a house raid... It's fun, exciting, unseen and unheard of." Yinyuan muttered in a low voice: "Old Yu, Lu Qing, can we do more of this kind of thing in the future?"
"This house is still too small. Who has the biggest house in Haojing City? Let's find a house with the biggest house and copy it next time."
Lu Qian coughed slightly: "No surprise, besides the Imperial City, Jiuqu Garden, the largest house in Haojing City is the General's Mansion."
Yinyuan closed his mouth and glared at Lu Qian with a resentful look.
Lu Qian smiled. In that room, in a side house in the backyard, A Hu's roar came: "Brother Qian, there is a secret passage... Hey, I smell the smell of Master Mao's urine, this is the right place."
.”
"Your Majesty, please, we have found the land." Lu Qian smiled and pointed to the backyard.
A large group of people poured into the backyard, and a group of guards, wearing heavy armor and carrying heavy shields, bravely rushed into the underground passage.
There was a dull sound from the underground. After a while, a young eunuch rushed over and said with a horrified look: "Your Majesty, the eunuch... below, below..."
The little eunuch swallowed deeply and was so frightened that he was speechless for a moment.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Lu Yi, Yinyuan, and Yu Changle stood dumbfounded in the underground hall where Bai Changkong hid the gold, staring blankly at the hardwood boxes that were opened one after another in front of them.
Gold bricks, gold ingots, gold ingots, and various shapes of gold were neatly stacked in large boxes.
In some large boxes, the gold ingots and gold ingots were filled with gold sand as fine as sesame grains. The whole box was filled to the brim, and one box was equivalent to a large piece of gold.
There are also some boxes filled with various rubies, sapphires, diamonds, agates, pearls and other rare items stuffed between the gold nuggets.
There are even some boxes that contain no gold, but are filled with ivory, rhinoceros horn, tortoiseshell, coral, tourmaline, jade and other items that are more precious than gold.
The value of this piece of property in the entire hall is difficult to estimate at the moment.
"I can be considered to be able to make money. The money I pass every year can be regarded as gold and silver." Yinyuan looked at the two thousand big boxes in front of him and said quietly: "But the more money I get, the more I spend.
Old Yu, Jiuquyuan, how much money do I still have in my private treasury now?"
Yu Changle laughed dryly: "I took stock a few years ago and found that there are less than one billion coins left in His Majesty's private treasury."
"I am the Emperor of Dayin, and I am the ruler of nine states. Not to mention the other princes, I have only one ancestral state, spanning 720,000 miles, with trillions of people..."
"Now that Jiayou is nineteen years old, I have the reputation of being a foolish king and risk my face to make money. As long as I am willing to give money, even if I am a butcher who sells pork, I will dare to give his mother a third-grade imperial concubine."
Addicted!"
"For these shabby things, I was scolded by the civil and military ministers!"
"Jiayou is nineteen years old. I have been making money for more than ten years, and my private balance is less than one billion yuan. I am not willing to spend money. I can't even afford Laoyu's gambling debts, so I will."
Yu Changle rolled his eyes and looked at Yinyuan resentfully.
"Look, look, here."
Yinyuan's face flushed with excitement, and he pointed at the boxes and gestured: "You will suddenly become rich. How much gold is there? Is it more than my private treasury? Is it much more? You say,
How can an old guy who teaches at the Imperial College be so rich?"
Lu Qian sighed: "Your Majesty, you are making money, but you are also charged with selling your official position. Others are different. They call it, 'promoting talents for the country'!"
"If you sell an official position, you can usually only sell a casual job. People promote talents for the country, but they actually arrange official positions."
"what do you think?"
Yinyuan walked to a big box, reached out and grabbed a handful of gold sand, opened his hand slightly, and the gold sand flowed down between his fingers, making a crisp sound of "ta da da da".
He grabbed another gold ingot and rubbed it over and over again on his face with great intoxication.
"Let's check and see what's going on in this house, what's going on with this secret passage, and what's going on with such a big underground secret room."
Yinyuan said quietly: "This is Wu Yinfang. They can carve out such a large territory underground. Will one day their tunnels be dug directly into the imperial city? Will they be able to dig directly into the Imperial City?
Quyuan?"
"This is not the mansion of nobles. I can understand those nobles setting up secret rooms underground, secret passages and so on. The nobles and nobles always have some shameful things, and they like to hide them underground."
"But this house is the public property of Guanglu Temple. Every plant, tree, and grain of sand here is the property of Dayin Taifu."
"The public property of Guanglu Temple cannot have these secret rooms, secret passages, etc."
"Such a large project can only be excavated by themselves afterwards."
"Let's check, we need to kill a group of people."
Yinyuan casually stuffed the gold ingot in his hand into his sleeve, turned around and nodded towards Lu Yi: "Mr. Tianyang, you did a great job in this matter, no matter whether it can be traced to Bai Changkong or not
, we men have made this fortune!"
"Well, it's up to you to see it. I'm not a stingy emperor."
"As for the money here, Lao Yu, you take 10%, Lu Qian, you take 10%, and the remaining 80% is mine."
"The rewards for the men who are dispatched today will be generous, and this sum will come from my share."
"In addition, Lao Yu, give Lu Qian's Zhuangzi in Yinmaifang, plus three more, and give me double the food and land."
Lu Chen clasped his fists and bowed deeply to Yinyuan.
Wonderful, with this windfall, the money accumulated by Lu Qian's vendors can be spent openly.
As Yinyuan spoke, he turned around again, walked to a large box, picked out a few large rubies with excellent color, and put them into his sleeves naturally.
"In addition, I found that there are only gold and silver jewelry, coral and tortoise shells, etc."
"But, since it's a bribe, it's not just these... antiques, famous paintings, unique books, rare elixirs, these must be there. But they are not found here, which proves that he must have other places to hide stolen goods.
"
"Lu Qian, I leave this matter to you. I'll dig him out and bankrupt him!"
"Old Yu, please be more serious about the other courtiers. Bai Changkong is like this, but what about the other courtiers? Huh? To put it more bluntly, even the Imperial Academy is like this, so what about Taixue?
Where’s the grand sacrificial wine?”
Yu Changle laughed dryly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not easy to find out how the Imperial Academy held a grand ceremony for wine. Zhu Song has an excellent reputation among the people, especially among scholars, and is even much higher than the reputation of the Prime Minister."
"They are kidnapping public opinion!" Yinyuan said heart-wrenching words.
Lu Qian drooped his eyelids and said nothing.
Being able to say this proves that Yinyuan is still awake in his heart and is not a complete fool.
"Then, we have to arrest a few people." Yinyuan said quietly: "I am short of money. Now it seems that catching corrupt officials will bring in money faster than selling them off."
Lu Qian and Yu Changle looked at each other and had an idea at the same time.
Yinyuan laughed again: "By the way, where is Xi Wuyou's head? And where is Jiuyin's leader's token? This is a good thing that can be used to sacrifice to the ancestors in the Ancestral Temple. Those who have not been caught by the ancestors of the past dynasties will be caught by me.
Lu Qing was caught, so it can be seen that I am more capable than my ancestors!"
Lu Qian said nothing.
Yinyuan laughed intoxicatedly.
Outside, a young eunuch rushed in: "Your Majesty, Eunuch, things are very interesting. The granddaughter of Bai Shanchang and her husband's house are actually nearby."
