Li Cheng was so angry with this pair of dogs that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached everywhere.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Hua Ruren, who gave you the guts to talk about Gu?"
Hua Manman covered her lips and whispered: "So you can hear me?"
"...alone and not deaf."
Hua Manman hastily apologized: "I'm sorry, my concubine is just talking casually, Your Highness shouldn't care about such a little girl as my concubine, right?"
Li Cheng suppressed his anger and said: "This is the court, and the idlers are all alone!"
But Li Ji said: "She is the child I am marrying, not an idler."
Li Cheng confronted each other: "Even if she is your child, she can't talk nonsense in the courtroom!"
Li Ji smiled slightly: "Is she talking nonsense? Why do I think what she said makes sense?"
Li Cheng finally couldn't help it anymore, he asked coldly with a sullen face.
"Are you planning to openly fight against Gu?"
Li Ji met his gaze without dodging, and asked, "So what?"
Just when Li Ji was about to take this opportunity to have a violent attack, Hua Manman suddenly stood up and tried to persuade him by pretending to be innocent.
"Oh, it's all the concubine's fault. It's the concubine's bad status. Don't quarrel because of the concubine's status."
Li Cheng was disgusted by her bitch look.
But it's not easy for him to get to know her like a female class in public.
He could only ignore her and speak directly to King Zhao.
"Do you really want to meddle in this business?"
Li Ji replied slowly.
"How can this be called meddling
I call it sharing the worries of His Royal Highness. After all, His Royal Highness still has a lot of things to do. How can he have time to take care of such a small case? "
Li Cheng smiled coldly: "Okay, since you have said so, I will give you two days.
If you can't find out the whereabouts of the stolen money within two days, you should immediately pack your bags and return to Shangjing! "
The officials of the entire county government accuse Luo Yun of embezzling Mo's public funds, and Li Cheng believes that this incident is by no means groundless.
But Luo Yun's mouth was very stubborn, and he tried his best but couldn't pry Luo Yun's mouth open.
Since King Zhao insisted on rushing to meddle in his own business, he could just throw this hot potato to him. If he failed to find out the truth within the stipulated time, he could go back to Shangjing in despair.
At that time, King Zhao's face will inevitably be swept away.
Let's see how he will hang around in Shangjing in the future? !
Li Ji heard the prince's heart clearly, not only did not panic, but wanted to laugh a little.
In fact, Li Ji did laugh out loud.
"Oh, yes, if I can find out the case within two days, please allow me a small request from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Li Cheng immediately became vigilant: "What request?"
Li Ji said with a smile.
"Don't worry, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask you for an insignificant little thing, and it will definitely not hinder you or anything."
The more Zhao Wang downplayed it, the more uneasy Li Cheng felt.
But when it came to this point, he couldn't go back on his word, so he could only bite the bullet and agree in the end.
"Then it's settled."
The case was thus handed over to King Zhao.
Li Ji did not continue to interrogate Luo Yun, but ordered Luo Yun to be sent back to prison and sent a doctor to treat him.
In order to prevent Luo Yun from encountering accidents in prison, Li Ji secretly sent someone to protect him.
The prince now lives in the largest room in the county government office, and the slightly smaller room is assigned to King Zhao, so Hua Manman naturally lives with King Zhao.
Hua Manman followed Li Ji into the room.
After the screen faded away, Hua Manman couldn't wait to ask out the doubts in his heart.
"Why did the prince suddenly change his mind and want to help Luo Yun?"
Li Ji didn't answer but asked instead: "Who said that this king is going to help him?"
Hua Manman was taken aback.
"If you didn't want to help him, why did you take this case?"
Li Ji said slowly: "Because this king wants to get something from the prince."
Hua Manman became more and more curious: "What good thing is worth the prince's trouble?"
Li Ji made a fool of himself on purpose.
"You'll know when the time comes."
Hua Manman had no choice but to hold back her curiosity, and turned to talk about another matter.
"Just now when the prince saw you coming back safely, his reaction was exceptionally strong, and I felt a little unreasonable."
If the prince was simply shocked, his voice wouldn't even tremble.
His expression at that time seemed to be mixed with tension, fear, and guilt in addition to shock.
Li Ji smiled lightly: "That's what he has to ask himself."
When he was talking to the crown prince just now, he had already heard the crown prince's inner voice, and learned that the reason why he fell into the river was not a simple accident, but the crown prince did it on purpose.
Li Ji has a lot of problems, including narrow-mindedness, love to hold grudges, and revenge.
But he will not make it easy for anyone who has offended him.
And wait, the fun has just begun!
The news that Gao Xiancheng was dismissed and investigated soon spread to Gao's family.
Master Gao was taken aback, and hurried to Gao Xiancheng's house in person, wanting to know what was going on
However, as soon as he arrived at the Gaoxian Cheng's house, the soldiers of the Tiger Roaring Battalion rushed into the Gaoxian Cheng's house.
Gao Xiancheng and Mr. Gao were forcibly taken away, and the entire Gao family was turned upside down.
It didn't matter this search, but in the end, hundreds of boxes of silver were found in the Gao family's underground secret room!
The words "official silver" are all engraved on the bottom of those silver coins.
It is enough to prove that all the silver is public money!
According to rough statistics, there are more than 200,000 taels.
When the soldiers of Hu Xiao Battalion carried these heavy boxes in front of the prince, Li Cheng almost burst into pieces.
He always thought that Luo Yun was greedy for Mo's public funds, but he never thought that the person who was really greedy for Mo's public funds was Gao Xiancheng!
He was a majestic prince, but he was played around by a small county magistrate.
If this case hadn't been taken over by King Zhao, Li Cheng really wanted to kill Gao Xiancheng right away to relieve his hatred!
Gao Xiancheng and Master Gao were no less shocked than the prince.
They had long colluded with each other in private, and agreed that Luo Yun would be charged with embezzling public funds, and the matter did indeed develop according to their plan.
They were all relieved and felt that the matter was settled.
But he never thought that King Zhao would be killed halfway.
King Zhao neither interrogated nor interrogated. The first thing he did was to arrest people and search Gao's house. The speed was so fast that people were caught off guard.
The Gao family didn't even know what happened, so they were searched by Bian Ziming and others.
After copying the Gao family, the Deng family and the Cao family followed.
The two families were not much cleaner than the Gao family, and more than 100,000 taels of official silver were seized from their homes.
Faced with overwhelming evidence, Gao Xiancheng knew that he was powerless, so he could only bow his head and plead guilty.
The prince gave King Zhao two days to find out the truth.
But it only took King Zhao one day to find out the whole thing.
What's more, the truth found out is completely different from what the prince had identified before.
This was undoubtedly a severe slap in the face of the prince, causing his mood to sink to the bottom for a while, and his whole person became extremely gloomy.
But what made him even worse was yet to come.
Because Li Ji came to him to fulfill his promise.
