The Three Spirit Stones

"Catch her, catch this criminal woman..."

At this time, Xu Tuiguan, who was holding his head, also rushed out of the ear room and shouted at the yamen runners,

Ah Cai's heart was pounding, and she began to get a little scared. She had never encountered such a situation before.

Under Cheng Yu's protection, she has always been the boss at home. She is the only one who bullies others and no one dares to bully her, but today she hit a wall.

In the midst of the crisis, she suddenly remembered a method of escaping that Lu Wuchen had taught her when he was bored. Instantly, her inner universe exploded, and she dove left and right among the many tall and strong yamen runners.

She had amazing footwork and managed to dodge the big hands that wanted to grab her countless times.

She ran and dodged in Kaifeng Mansion, pushing whatever she encountered and throwing whatever she caught. The sign "Silence and Stay Away" in the main hall, the screen in Plum Blossom Hall, the writing brushes, inkstones, documents, books, and ornaments on the tables and chairs in the meeting room...

These were all very valuable items. The yamen runners were scrambling to catch the flying things. The Kaifeng Prefecture was like a house full of rats, and Xu Tuiguan and his men were so angry that they were screaming.

Just as she was about to clap her hands and laugh out loud in triumph, a fishing net suddenly dropped from the sky and caught her body.

She was startled, took a step, and fell flat on her face.

Two yamen runners rushed forward, pulled down the fishing net, and grabbed her arms one by one.

These yamen runners were fooled by her today and were very angry. They finally caught her.

A squad leader came forward and slapped Ah Cai in the face. She felt her ears buzzing, stars in her eyes, and half of her face was burning with pain.

She couldn't help it and burst into tears.

The squad leader cursed fiercely.

"You still dare to cry?"

Just as he was about to slap him again, a strong wind suddenly hit him, and with a "bang", the squad leader was kicked out.

"oops!"

"oops!"

Then, the two yamen runners who were holding Ah Cai's arms were kicked out at the same time.

When everyone looked closely, they saw a Taoist priest standing there with his eyes wide open and an imposing manner. His Taoist robes were inflated by his true energy and fluttered without wind.

"Humph, a group of grown men bullying a woman like this, how can you still say that it's fair and honest?"

As soon as the Taoist priest finished speaking, he waved his sleeves, and the plaque with the words "Fairness and Integrity" hanging in the lobby instantly broke into several pieces and fell to the ground.

This move shocked everyone on the field.

"Lu Wuchen, wow~"

Ah Cai cried loudly and threw herself into his arms, as if she had seen her parents.

Looking at her half-swollen face, Lu Wuchen's anger grew even more intense.

During this period of time, he had already regarded Ah Cai as his own daughter.

He has no relatives in his life and was adopted by his master since he was a child. He lacks family affection. Ah Cai has a simple and straightforward personality, no scheming, and her emotions are all shown on her face. She often makes him laugh when she talks.

So, the two of them gradually developed a father-daughter relationship. Now seeing her being bullied so badly, how could he not be angry?

Just as he was about to teach these yamen runners a lesson, a voice suddenly rang out from outside.

"Master Lu, please calm down. Master Lu, please calm down."

At this time, surrounded by a group of people, an official with a square forehead and a broad face hurried over. He bowed to Lu Wuchen and said, "Master Lu, long time no see."

"It's you, Wei Fuyin,"

He recognized the person and found that it was Wei Guan, the prefect of Kaifeng.

It is said that Wei Guan was going to court today. After leaving the court, he returned to Kaifeng Prefecture and saw Ah Cai's carriage in front of the door.

He was a little puzzled. This type of Feichi brand carriage was still a rare thing in Bianjing City. Only the royal family or the prime minister, the privy councilor and the three officials could own this kind of carriage. It was not common to see it on the road.

When he was about to ask the gatekeeper, he found the gate closed. He quickly asked his men to ask someone to open the door. When he entered the mansion, he found it was a mess. After taking a closer look, he was shocked to find that it was Lu Wuchen.

Wei Guan had seen Lu Wuchen in the palace before.

At that time, Song Zhenzong believed in Taoism and heard that Lu Wuchen from Tianshu Sect was a true master. He spent a lot of effort to invite him to the palace to see him. However, Lu Wuchen had always been devoted to cultivation and had no interest in the secular world. He only went to see Song Zhenzong once and then left.

It happened that Wei Guan was present that time and had the honor to witness Taoist Master Lu's magical powers, so he remembered them deeply. What he could not have imagined was that Taoist Master Lu actually remembered him.

"Hey, Master Lu, what on earth is going on?"

Wei Guan asked in panic,

"Wei Fu Yin, you came just in time. Look, your men have beaten our friend like me to death."

Lu Wuchen pointed at Ah Cai angrily and said,

Wei Guan looked at Ah Cai, whose face was swollen, and felt that she looked familiar, but he couldn't remember her for a moment, so he asked, "...Master, who is this?"

"She is the wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, Cheng Acai,"

...Cheng Yu’s wife?!

Cheng Acai? ! !

The little ancestor of the loyal and brave Marquis's family? ! !

The number one female asshole in Beijing?

...Being beaten by my subordinates? ! !

hiss~

Wei Guan took a breath of cold air!

Everyone in the upper class of Bianjing knew that Cheng Yu loved this woman the most. If he knew about this...

Thinking of Cheng Yu's nickname of the evil star, Wei Guan couldn't help but sweat on his forehead and felt a chill down his spine. He stammered, "This, this, this..."

"Master, there must be some misunderstanding here. Let me find out the reason for this."

"I must give you two an explanation."

Under the investigation of Wei Fuyin, the matter finally came to a general conclusion.

A few months ago, the accounting firm received a bill from the Ministry of Storage under the Ministry of Revenue. Over the years, some government agencies have outsourced some of their accounts to the firm, and there have been no mistakes.

Until a while ago, the Ministry of Revenue had an account that was not balanced, so it sent a large number of people to check the calculations and found that there was a problem with the Warehouse Department. The account books found by the Warehouse Department were found to have problems with the accounts done by the accounting firm, so the Ministry of Revenue immediately reported it to Kaifeng Prefecture and sent people to seal up the firm.

Looking at the account book provided by Wei Guan, which was stamped with the seal of the accounting firm, he opened it and saw row after row of handwriting marks of his employees.

This account was indeed done by my own firm.

"Sir, we did make this account, but what's the problem?"

Ah Cai's face still hurt a little when she was talking, and Dong Mei was using a hot egg to warm her up.

"Madam, please take a look at this,"

Wei Guan handed over another account book and said, "This account is recalculated by the Ministry of Revenue. The total amount is 1.23 million taels, but the account you made is 1.33 million taels."

"We interrogated the warehouse staff, and they all said they had no knowledge of the matter. This is what the account books looked like when we got them back."

"Madam Hou, if you can't provide strong evidence, then your firm is indeed the most suspicious,"

"At the very least, even if they find out there's a traitor in Cangbu, they can still turn around and say it was your firm that instigated it. You are the principal offender and they are the accomplice."

It must be said that the person who forged the account was very shady. He added a horizontal line to the word "two" to make it three, and easily pocketed 100,000 taels of silver.

If the truth is revealed, they will push a scapegoat out and say that the person was instigated by someone in the firm to go along with the corruption, and pass the blame on to others.

The account books prove that the people in the firm are as dirty as shit.
