The wronged female supporting role made a comeback with a divine reply
Chapter 65 Who do you look down on?
Bai Shihong looked disdainful: "I didn't expect Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to be so shameless!"
Mr. Zhong also sighed: "It is a blessing for Miss Bai to have this opportunity."
Lord Zhang said happily: "That's good. When we get to the capital, maybe we can go to the palace for a drink!"
Lord Zhong nodded, he was right, they would never be polite when they could take advantage of the situation.
After the few people left, Bai Lin and Bai Zhaozhao were left staring at each other.
"Brother, do you have anything else to do?"
Bai Lin took a deep breath and said, "It's okay. I was scared to death today! My legs are weak. I need to take a rest!"
"Pfft." Bai Zhaozhao laughed, "Thank you for your hard work, brother. I think you are very domineering today! Hey, where is cousin Hao?"
"Here." Bai Hao's voice came from the roof.
Bai Zhaozhao looked up and saw that Bai Hao had gone to the roof at some point. He just sat there quietly, and no one knew how long he had been sitting there.
Bai Lin asked, "Why are you so quiet all of a sudden?"
Bai Hao jumped down and said, "Zhao Zhao, do you think I can be a Jinyiwei?"
Bai Lin was shocked: "What nonsense?"
Bai Zhaozhao was also surprised: "Brother, it's not easy to be a Jinyiwei. First of all, you have to be good at martial arts!"
"Bang!" Bai Hao smashed the stone table with one punch!
Bai Zhaozhao:!!!
Bai Lin said angrily: "Do you know how much this is?"
Bai Hao curled his lips: "You're scolding me again. It's fine if you scolded me before when our family had little money, but now that we have more money, you're still scolding me!"
Bai Zhaozhao came back to his senses: "You were born with supernatural powers?"
Bai Hao chuckled twice and said happily, "Yes, sister! Although my kung fu is average, my strength is super strong. Didn't I say before that I would lift the roof? Do you want to see it, sister?"
Bai Lin yelled again: "Bai Hao, how dare you!"
"Oh, I know, I know. I'm not really going to lift the roof off. I'm just showing it to my sister!"
"You must show it like this, don't you?"
Bai Zhaozhao hurried to stop the fight: "Alright, alright, brother, I already know how powerful you are! But the matter of Jinyiwei still needs to be considered in the long run, let's find out more after we go to the capital!"
"Okay!" Bai Hao said happily, "My sister is still the best!"
Bai Lin: ...
The next night.
After a day of searching, Bai Zhaozhao finally found the official warehouse, which contained boxes of official silver. When she opened it and had a look, she was dazzled by the sight. Resisting her greed, Bai Zhaozhao waved her hand and put the money into the space.
After leaving some traces, Bai Zhaozhao left quietly under the cover of space.
Afterwards, she hurried to the post station. At present, only Lord Zheng's group of people were staying there. Bai Zhaozhao didn't need to look carefully to find his luggage, because it was ready to go. If she guessed correctly, Lord Zheng would leave early in the morning.
Humph, I can’t leave!
Almost before daybreak, the patrolling soldiers noticed some traces. Suspicious, they checked everywhere and soon discovered to their horror that the government silver had been stolen!
All of a sudden, the news was reported to higher levels, and many people on duty were terrified. The entire government office was in chaos. When Prefect Zhong was awakened and learned about this, he was so scared that he almost fainted!
Are all those guards just for show? Lord Zhong calmly ordered his men to call all the experts in handling cases while thinking about the worst possibility. He even thought about how to apologize!
By the time he rushed to the government office, Lord Zhang had already taken control of the scene and told him directly not to worry, as he had already sealed the city gates and the government silver must still be in the city. However, what he could not understand was that the criminal's method was very crude, with many flaws, and even footprints were found!
Mr. Zhong: ...
This……
Who do you look down on?
When the two followed the clues and arrived at the post station, Lord Zhong was overjoyed. All the stolen official silver was in Lord Zheng's luggage!
Just as Lord Zheng was about to run away, he was shocked to see himself surrounded by soldiers!
Lord Zhong didn't care whether Lord Zheng had any serious illness or not. Since he had already caught him red-handed and the evidence was irrefutable, he gave an order directly: "Come here, arrest him!"
Afterwards, Lord Zheng stared with wide eyes and looked at the government silver seized by Prefect Zhong in horror: "What is going on! This is impossible! Lord Zhong, are you trying to harm me? How dare you?"
"How dare I? It should be you who dared to steal the government silver! It is my duty to arrest you, how could I not dare? Lord Zheng, I really didn't expect you to be so courageous. This is a serious crime!"
"You're talking nonsense! I didn't do anything! Everyone in the post station can testify that I haven't been out for the past two days!"
Lord Zhong looked at him as if he were a fool: "So, should I praise your subordinates for their talent?"
Zheng felt that he had no words to express his suffering and could only shout helplessly: "I was framed, someone must have framed me!"
Lord Zhong ignored him and told him to report it immediately.
He realized that Lord Zheng was most likely framed, but the matter had nothing to do with him, so he was not afraid of any investigation. However, since someone was giving him credit, it would be wrong for him not to continue.
After going through all this trouble, Lord Zhong and Lord Zhang returned to the government office and analyzed the situation carefully.
"Zhang Tongzhi, who do you think did this?"
"Why do you ask when you already know the answer?"
Indeed, Zheng Da has only been in the city for more than a month. If he has to make an enemy, the only one is the Bai family, but the Bai family obviously does not have the strength to do so!
Then it can only be the three waves of nobles who came to congratulate.
Princess An was far away, and the people who came were just a few servants, so it was impossible for them to do such a thing.
Wang Jinnian's subordinates are responsible for handling cases, so their methods should be more sophisticated.
Only the Jinyiwei monitor all officials. They use various tricks and their communication methods are also unique.
But Lord Zhong always felt that He Anyu was not that kind of person, so he couldn't help but defend himself: "He Anyu is my nephew, I know him well. Even if he would do such a thing, he wouldn't have known it in just two days!"
Zhang Tongzhi disagreed: "Not knowing doesn't mean he didn't tell me. The Jinyiwei who came to give the gift must be his personal guard. It's possible that he guessed his master's intention and acted in private."
"This..." Lord Zhong was unable to refute for a moment.
Mr. Zhang added: "Sir, now is not the time to pursue the truth, but how we can use this matter!"
Lord Zhong nodded and said, "You are right. If we had investigated their party rashly in the past, we would have encountered obstacles. Now that we have a breakthrough, it would be unfair to us if we don't investigate it thoroughly."
"Yes, even if the matter of official silver was a frame-up, it is a fact that Lord Zheng poisoned his wife. Even if we can't find anything, we can't let him take office." Lord Zhang said calmly.
"Hmph, take office? I'll make him ride in a prison car back to Beijing for trial!" said Lord Zhong.
"Then, sir, do you think we should let Lord Bai participate in this matter?"
