When Zhong Yu heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened and he said, "It's easy to say!"
"I have long heard that Yangzhou Longjing is a royal tribute tea, which is far better than Dongding Oolong. Nowadays, it is rare in Qiandu City. I am afraid that only the East Palace can get it."
"This time, I have benefited from General Anbei's honor and can taste some tribute tea."
"What are you talking about, Mr. Zhong? You are an elder. You have worked hard in the Ministry of Punishment over the years, and you have made countless contributions to Da Qian."
"As a junior, I think I should treat you to a cup of tea."
"General Anbei is really smart, and he is a promising young man!" After hearing this, Zhong Yu understood that the matter was settled, and a big stone fell in his heart. He looked at Li Changkong in front of him, and then said again: "I heard that General Anbei's child At that time, he was plotted against by Beiyuan thieves, and his meridians were injured, so he was unable to practice martial arts?"
"It is indeed true. If it weren't for my father's great help, I'm afraid there would be no Changkong in this world." Li Changkong smiled, but he didn't shy away from such things.
In the future, Bei Yuan will be destroyed and Tuoba Khan will be killed.
Naturally, this shame is no longer a shame, but an honor.
"Oh, that Beiyuan traitor is really hateful."
"It's just that the general is General Anbei after all. I'm afraid he will rarely have to go to the battlefield in the future. Since he doesn't know martial arts, he must have something for self-defense."
"It just so happens that I have a soft star armor given to me by a merchant from Nanliang. Although it is as light as a feather, it is indestructible and cannot be damaged unless it is a magical weapon."
"I'm a civil servant. It's a waste to keep it at home. Why don't you give it to the general so that you can be protected on the battlefield in the future."
When Li Changkong heard this, he suddenly smiled and said, "Why is this so embarrassing?"
"It's just a gift from the elders, so I can't refuse it. It would be disrespectful for Changkong to reject it."
When Zhong Yu heard this, he felt relieved.
I am not afraid that you will accept it, but I am afraid that you will not accept it.
Li Changkong is the core figure of the prince's faction. With his support, there will no longer be any problems in siding with the prince and gaining a certain status.
For a time, there was a banquet of laughter and laughter in the carriage.
After a while, Tianyijiao arrived.
Zhang Hongfa, who was wearing a plain Taoist robe, had already been waiting at the entrance of the Taoist temple. When he saw Li Changkong coming, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "Here?"
"Well, senior brother, I'm sorry."
"Why be sorry? If Chen Qianyuan can do such a thing, it is tantamount to putting the entire Tianyi Sect on the fire."
"If you were able to expose him, you would actually save the Tianyi Sect."
"You can forgive the sins committed by God, but you can't live if you do the sins yourself."
Zhang Hongfa is a Taoist who likes to lie down, so he is naturally more open-minded than ordinary people when encountering things.
Even reason has told him that Li Changkong's approach is undoubtedly correct.
However, people are not saints, how can they be ruthless?
He vaguely remembered the scene when he led Chen Qianyuan up the mountain.
This apprentice has been smart since he was a child.
It's just that he doesn't like to practice Taoism, but is keen on business matters.
Simply, he handed Tianyi Sect over to him.
Facts have also proved that Chen Qianyuan has indeed managed Tianyi Sect very well. Over the years, the incense has been very prosperous.
I just... lost my sense of proportion and didn't know what I could do and what I couldn't do.
It's his own fault.
"Come with me, Qianyuan's house is within the sect."
Under the leadership of Zhang Hongfa, Li Changkong and a group of people from the Ministry of Punishment quickly arrived at their destination and immediately launched a vigorous house raid.
A moment later, a commissioner from the Ministry of Punishment walked over with a solemn expression. He first looked at Zhong Yu, and then at Li Changkong, but hesitated to speak.
"General Li is one of our own, but there's no harm in talking," Zhong Yu said.
Hearing this, the man said truthfully: "There is something wrong with the floor in Chen Qianyuan's room. I'm afraid there is something inside."
Hearing this, Zhong Yu frowned slightly.
He is just a little Taoist priest, but there is such a thing as a secret door and a secret room?
Li Changkong also looked at Zhang Hongfa: "Senior brother, do you know about this?"
Zhang Hongfa shook his head when he heard this and said, "I don't know."
"When Tianyi Sect was founded, there were never any secret doors or secret rooms."
"But since Chen Qianyuan took charge of the Tianyi Sect, I have no longer interfered with the major and minor affairs within the sect. They are all led by him."
Hearing this, Li Changkong nodded and said, "It seems that Chen Qianyuan should have built this secret room himself."
"Dig it up and take a look." Zhong Yu immediately ordered.
"promise!"
Nearly an hour later, the bottom of Chen Qianyuan's house was finally dug through.
Li Changkong and others expected it to be right, it was like a secret room!
Fortunately, anti-theft equipment was not developed these days, so an iron door was installed in the secret room, which was eventually violently broken open by officers from the Criminal Department.
After entering the secret room, the jewels everywhere blinded Li Changkong and others.
I saw that the secret room was not big. Li Changkong estimated that it was less than a few square meters.
But... within these few square meters, there are piles of gold and silver everywhere, as well as all kinds of agates, jade, pearls and jade.
Of course, the most valuable thing is banknotes!
Basket after basket piled up!
Seeing this scene, Zhang Hongfa was dumbfounded and murmured: "In recent years...has the incense in the temple been so good?"
Li Changkong and Zhong Yu looked at each other, their hearts sinking to the bottom.
The money here is not too much, at least for Li Changkong.
After all, Zhenguo Fast Food cooperates directly with the imperial court and the Ministry of War, and has opened large and small branches in Qiandu City. His monthly dividends have almost caught up with these.
But for Chen Qianyuan, a Taoist priest, it was more wealth than he could accumulate in several lifetimes!
He shouldn't have so much money! When something goes wrong, there must be a monster!
"I'm afraid these are not Tianyi Sect's money."
"No matter how good the Tianyijiao's incense is, it still requires daily expenses, and the net profit is actually not high. It will probably take decades to accumulate such a lot of wealth."
"I'm afraid these things have other origins."
This is what Li Changkong said, and it is clear information.
But some things are tacitly understood.
For example, combined with the slogan Chen Qianyuan shouted before: Depose the prince and establish the King of Jing!
It is self-evident as to whose hand these silvers came from.
Zhang Hongfa also understood at this time that Chen Qianyuan was afraid that he was working for King Jing or King Jing's subordinates, so he used the name of Emperor Zhenwu to dethrone the prince!
These are the benefits before you!
"It's really... extremely stupid!" Zhang Hongfa sneered, and the last trace of pity in his heart disappeared at this moment.
For his own benefit, he almost got the entire Tianyi Sect involved.
He simply regretted bringing such a thing back in the first place!
Zhong Yu didn't say much, but directly stepped forward to check.
I looked at gold and silver first, then emerald agate, then pearls and jade.
After reading it, I felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so I simply counted the numbers.
However, when he picked up the banknote, he couldn't help but frown.
This is a bank note with a face value of one hundred taels, which is very common in money shops. Zhong Yu has seen a lot of it on weekdays.
The one in front of me is almost exactly the same as a normal bank note.
But... Zhong Yu just felt something was wrong.
He couldn't tell what was wrong, but his decades of career in the Ministry of Criminal Justice gave him criminal investigation abilities that were beyond ordinary people.
This ability is mainly manifested in insight!
And now, his insight told him that this banknote might be a counterfeit!
