Chapter 61: Letter Fraud: My Name is the Prince of Northern Qi
"Miss, we received an anonymous letter and left it at the door of our Nanrong Mansion!"
The servant hurriedly handed the letter to Nan Rongxi. She scratched her nose after sneezing.
Nan Rongxi took the letter handed to her by the servant, looked at the letter in her hand which did not indicate the source or to whom it was addressed, and a puzzled expression appeared on her face.
She hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to open the envelope to see what was written in the letter. She carefully opened the envelope, took out the letter, and read it carefully.
"Hello! I am a prince of Northern Qi. I have been wandering outside and now I am penniless. As long as I can collect enough money to go to the Northern Qi Palace to meet the emperor, I can enjoy wealth and glory. You only need to throw 50 taels of silver for the travel fee into the dry well in the stone temple outside the city to help me. If you help me today, when I return to Northern Qi to become a prince, I will immediately give you 100 kilograms of gold and ask the emperor to make you king."
Seeing this, Nan Rongxi couldn't help but laugh. It turned out that there were scams in ancient times, and they were such low-end scams.
"Come here, prepare the four treasures of the study for me. I want to write him a reply!"
"Yes, Miss." The servant responded respectfully and quickly turned around to prepare the four treasures of the study.
Nan Rongxi put down the letter in her hand, and a teasing smile appeared on her lips. She decided to teach this shameless person who dared to commit fraud in front of her Nan Rong Mansion a lesson.
Soon, the servants prepared the four treasures of the study. Nan Rongxi picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and began to write on the rice paper.
"Hello, Prince of Northern Qi! I am the First Emperor. I was resurrected recently and am now hiding in Nanrong Mansion. I have thousands of soldiers underground, and now I am almost out of money to start up. As long as you leave 250 taels of start-up money at the gate of Nanrong Mansion, I will soon unify the world again. At that time, all the gold and silver in the world will be mine. I will give you half of it, and then make you a great vassal king! If you lie to me, I am a dog!"
Her handwriting was fluent and powerful, and soon, a reply letter was completed. She put down the brush, folded the reply letter, put it in an envelope, and handed it to the servant.
"Take this letter to the dry well next to the stone temple outside the city and throw it down." Nan Rongxi ordered.
Although the servant was a little confused, he still responded respectfully and left with the reply letter.
The next morning.
Nan Rongjie and Nan Rongxi were about to get on the carriage to go to court when a servant came running over to report: "Master, someone left 250 taels of silver at the door!"
Just when Nan Rongjie was confused, Nan Rongxi said, "This is the money I lent to my friend before. I wrote to ask for the money yesterday. I want it back. Please help me get the money back to my boudoir!"
When Nan Rongjie heard Nan Rongxi's words, he showed a puzzled expression on his face. He looked at his daughter and asked, "Ah Xi, where did you get so much money to lend to your friends?"
Nan Rongxi smiled slightly, with a sly look in her eyes. She said casually, "Dad, have you forgotten? I made some money in the God of Cooking Competition, and I also made some money selling fish in Moyu County!"
After listening to Nan Rongxi's explanation, Nan Rongjie still had some doubts in his heart, but seeing his daughter's confident look, he did not ask further questions. He nodded and said to the servant, "Since it is your lady's money, then follow her instructions and send the money to her boudoir."
The servant responded, picked up the 250 taels of silver, and walked carefully towards Nan Rongxi's boudoir.
Then, the two of them ran towards the palace as quickly as before!
Nan Rongxi sat in the carriage and couldn't help laughing: [This liar is so stupid, he believed me when I said I was the First Emperor! ]
She turned to look at Nan Rongjie, only to find that her father was looking at her with confusion, as if he didn't understand why she suddenly laughed.
"Ah Xi, what are you laughing at?" Nan Rongjie asked curiously.
Nan Rongxi blinked and smiled mischievously, "Nothing, Dad, I was just thinking about something interesting."
Nan Rongjie: The First Emperor? A liar?
Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, Nan Rongjie did not ask any more questions.
Emperor Rentong was in a particularly good mood for today's court meeting. He sat on the dragon throne early, waiting for the arrival of the ministers. When Nan Rongxi walked into the hall, a glimmer of expectation flashed in Emperor Rentong's eyes.
Emperor Rentong was secretly delighted: Nan Rongxi is here, and I can listen to gossip again, and maybe I can get some unexpected gains.
Nan Rongxi and the officials bowed respectfully to the emperor as usual, and then stood in their seats. The court meeting began, and the officials reported their affairs one after another.
Emperor Rentong listened with great interest and nodded in approval from time to time.
Nan Rongxi raised the corner of his mouth: [Tongzi Tongzi, a new day, a new melon! Come on, eat the melon! ]
System: [Yes, yes, here I come. Today I will give you a taste of the latest scam! ]
Nan Rongxi: [Oh? Is it the one who wrote a letter yesterday claiming to be the prince of Northern Qi? No one would believe such a low-level scam, right? ]
System: [You know what, there are people in this court who actually believed it, gave money, and even dreamed of getting rich! ]
Nan Rongxi's eyes lit up: [How stupid are these people who were deceived! Oh my God! Tongzi, can you tell me who was deceived first! ]
Emperor Rentong: What kind of scam is this?
Nan Rongjie: Is that what you were talking about this morning?
System: [This liar wrote many types of fraudulent letters, for example, he was a god who was in trouble, pretending to be a family member asking for money, and offering a large sum of money to have a child, all kinds of things! Master Zhang was one of the people deceived. ]
Master Zhang: ...
Emperor Rentong: Oh? Master Zhang is so smart, but he could be fooled?
Nan Rongxi smiled evilly: [Tell me quickly, how did Grand Tutor Zhang get deceived! ]
Master Zhang: I...
System: [Look, Master Zhang loves his grandson the most. His grandson happened to be out that day, and the liar said that his grandson had an accident and urgently needed a sum of money. He then said that it was inconvenient to take it in person, so he asked him to leave it at...]
Emperor Rentong: This liar is too much!
Master Zhang: Oh, I was confused, but fortunately I wasn’t cheated much!
Nan Rongjie: I have offended Grand Tutor Zhang again this time!
Nan Rongxi almost laughed out loud: [Hahahaha… Zhang Taishi, such a smart person can be deceived by such a stupid thief, Tongzi, is there anyone else? And the one you mentioned who paid a large sum of money to have a child, this is so exciting, who believed this. ]
Baiguan: A large sum of money for a child? What?
System: [Hmm! This person offered a large sum of money to have a child, and Zhang Chong, the official of the Ministry of Personnel, believed it! He was also cheated out of fifty taels of silver!]
Nan Rongxi looked at Zhang Chong: [Hahahaha... Tongzi, this is too stupid, what does a liar say? ]
Zhang Chong: …
