Only then did Chu Feng realize that this old man was Duke Wei. Fortunately, he and his son Su Heng often drank together before, so it turned out that they were both backstabbers! It doesn't hurt to kick this old guy to death!
"What's the matter? Huh!" Duke Wei realized that the Marquis of Zhenbei didn't dare to go any further, so he became bolder again. He said and waved his hand downwards.
Chu Feng's eyes widened instantly, and he even saw the pawn shop owner Wu Xiuting!
The large bookcase with the seal on it was carried up and placed heavily in the center of the stand. Duke Wei's face was full of pride, and he saluted His Majesty the Emperor again and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please look at it. The Marquis of Zhenbei always complains about poverty, but now look at this, it is a priceless treasure of the Marquis of Zhenbei's Mansion! It's so big and heavy. . The old minister feels that even if there are just some jewels and gold cakes inside, it is definitely a huge fortune! The old minister now wants to ask the Marquis of Zhenbei, how did he get so many treasures? "
"Yes, I also want to ask the Marquis of Zhenbei. Every time he comes back, he always goes to my Household Department to ask for military funds. This makes me, the Minister of Rites, always feel like I owe you money, and I always have to hide away. But now you have Such a huge and priceless treasure! It’s really an eye-opener for me!”
The Minister of Household Affairs also stood up and spoke. He was Wu Xiuting's father Wu Junxian!
And Chu Feng suddenly smiled, looked at Wu Xiuting who was standing next to the big bookcase, and said softly: "Wu Dongjia, are you really okay with betraying me like this? We have a contract. If you dare to open it within three days, you must be ten Double my ransom. Have you thought about it?"
"Although the little girl is a businessman, she also knows how to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic. I always heard from my father that the Marquis of Zhenbei was devoted to the country and even gave all his salary to the Zhenbei Army. I was very impressed and moved! But I didn't expect the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion. There is such a big priceless treasure. So, the little girl wanted to show the world that the priceless treasure of the Marquis Mansion was worth ten times the ransom, and the little girl came out!"
Wu Xiuting felt a bit heroic at this time. It feels like a great honor to be able to support my dad.
"Well said, and the Wu Dong family is really generous! Then please invite the Wu Dadong family to open this priceless treasure with your own hands."
Chu Feng said with a sneer. He even took out the key and threw it directly to Wu Xiuting. This made Wu Xiuting instinctively feel something was wrong. But at this time, there was no way to retreat, so he could only bite the bullet and prepare to open the lock.
"Let me come!"
As Wei Guogong said this, he stepped forward and took the key from Wu Xiuting's hand, ripped open the red paper seal, and opened the jade lock with a "click".
But when he opened the cabinet door and looked at the neat bamboo slips inside. shocked!
"This... this is impossible!" Duke Wei said, and he reached out and grabbed the bamboo slips without giving up, and opened the bamboo slips. The result was still bamboo slips!
"Chu Feng, this is the priceless treasure of your palace! You actually cheated money!"
Mr. Weiguo shouted angrily.
Wu Junxian, the Minister of Household Affairs, also glared at Chu Feng!
"Old man, don't you know: there is a house of gold in a book, and there is a beauty like jade in a book? What's the problem with Zhenbei Hou Mansion treating books as priceless treasures? And I didn't cheat money, this priceless treasure is just a living thing , promised to redeem it with one hundred and twenty gold cakes after three days, which means: three days' interest, twenty gold cakes, is it a sky-high price?"
After Chu Feng finished speaking, he suddenly looked at Wu Xiuting who was in a daze, stretched out his hand and took out the pawn ticket and the contract, shook it and said: "Wu Dadong's family, go back and prepare: one thousand two hundred gold cakes." Compensate. Otherwise, don’t open your pawn shop again!”
"Plop"
Wu Xiuting's legs became weak and she fell into the stands.
It wasn’t that I felt sorry for the twelve hundred gold cakes, but I was frightened by Zhenbei Hou’s eyes full of murderous intent!
The Marquis of Zhenbei is really angry now, and he only wants to protect his family and country. As a result, even a big pawn shop owner was doubting herself and she deserved to be killed!
Chu Feng hurriedly blocked the angry father, walked to Wu Xiuting, stretched out his hand to hold her slender and white hand, and said with a chuckle: "Wu Dong's family, your family has a big business, you can still come up with 1,200 gold cakes Yes, right?"
Wu Xiuting was a little lost at this time. The charming charm she had before was long gone. If his father Wu Junxian wasn't standing next to him, he would definitely be wet under his skirt.
"Don't worry, little Marquis. Since I have breached the contract, I will compensate you according to the price."
Wu Xiuting gritted her teeth and whispered. She had practiced martial arts since she was a child, but she could keenly feel the murderous aura in Zhenbei Hou. It's as uncomfortable as being in a forest of swords!
"Now that the Wu Dong family has admitted it, I will not pursue the case any further."
Chu Feng said, stood up, looked at His Majesty the Emperor, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Father-in-law. Just now, Duke Wei showed everyone the priceless treasure of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. Now the child would like to ask His Majesty, Father-in-law, to give you a decree, Let the child take the people to the Duke Wei's mansion to see his priceless treasures!"
"Chu Feng, where can I find this priceless treasure? Don't slander anyone!"
Duke Wei hurriedly shouted loudly.
The flesh on the old man's face was trembling with anger. How could this guy be such an unreasonable bastard? I didn't take any priceless treasure to the pawn shop! Why do you want to search my palace?
"Hmph, if you say no, then there is none? Why can you open the priceless treasure of Zhenbei Hou Mansion? Since you dare not let me take people to see it, then there is something wrong in your heart!"
Chu Feng spoke loudly, knelt down on one knee to the emperor again, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, father-in-law, let the child take people to his house to have a look. If the treasure cannot be found, the child will voluntarily accept the punishment!"
Before His Majesty the Emperor could speak, the Marquis of Zhenbei also knelt on one knee and said loudly: "Your Majesty, since Duke Wei has seen my priceless treasure, I should also go to his house to see it. There is also the house of Wu Junxian, the minister of household affairs." Go up and take a look too!”
"Plop"
Wu Junxian, the minister of household affairs, was so frightened that he fell to his knees.
"Bang bang bang"
He kowtowed and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I really don't have any priceless treasures."
"If you don't have a priceless treasure, your daughter can easily take out twelve hundred gold cakes. If you say you don't have a treasure, can your Majesty believe it?"
Next to him, Marquis Pingnan also interrupted, very loudly. These noble military generals and the Minister of Household Affairs have never dealt with them! Typical adding insult to injury.
Next to her, Wu Xiuting's slender body trembled. She knew very well what her father had. There were at least seven or eight priceless treasures!
"Mr. Chu Xiaohou, please show me your noble hand. My father really doesn't have any treasures. I can give out 1,200 gold cakes because my husband's family is rich. It's not my father's money."
Wu Xiuting said, and even took the initiative to hug Chu Feng's legs.
Chu Feng's legs instantly felt an extremely soft feeling, and he said in his heart: "Smart little pretty widow, it turns out that she also knows how to be afraid! However, the more this happens, it means there is something wrong with your father!"
"Marquis of Zhenbei, Feng'er, you have been wronged today. However, I also believe that Duke Wei and Minister Wu are innocent. Let's do this. In order to make up for the injustice you have suffered, let Duke Wei and Minister Wu take their own actions. One hundred gold cakes. Let’s end this matter.”
His Majesty the Emperor began to make peace with the mud.
After all, Wei Guogong and Wu Shilang are also his confidants.
Even if there is a treasure, Zhenbeihou cannot be allowed to lead people to search for it!
Otherwise, what would the civil and military ministers think? Zhenbeihou will be even more arrogant!
"Your Majesty, father-in-law, this little pawnshop owner has paid 1,200 gold cakes. The compensation for Duke Wei and Wu Shilang cannot be less than this amount, right?"
Chu Feng said, secretly winking at Ping Nanhou.
I always feel that Ping Nanhou is an old fox, smoother than his father. Sure enough, Marquis Pingnan spoke: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Zhenbei is devoted to the country! But when Wei Guogong and Wu Shilang got a cabinet from someone else, they unjustly accused the Marquis of Zhenbei of being extremely corrupt. This kind of behavior is simply an insult to the Marquis of Zhenbei. It is even a great insult to His Majesty! I think it is better to let the Marquis of Zhenbei lead the people, so that the search for talismans can be done more easily!"
At this time, several military generals also stood up and defended Zhenbei Hou in unison. His Majesty the Emperor has finally seen clearly that this old fox Chu Feng and Ping Nanhou have hooked up!
