"Sir, this old slave is incompetent and has not caught the person who took the ransom."
Back at Dou Mansion, Dou Fu knelt down with the bloody jade pendant to apologize.
Dou Huaishan glanced at the bloody jade pendant, "Do you think he really dares to hurt Dou Zhun?"
"Master, Li Qi'an is relying on the emperor to protect him now. He may dare to do anything." Dou Fu said.
"Then do you think he really kidnapped Dou Zhun just for ten thousand taels of gold?" Dou Huaishan then asked thoughtfully.
"Master, no matter what his purpose is, I think the top priority is to rescue the young master. I also ask the master to let me take people to Li Qian's house to ask for him!" Dou Fu said.
"You said it yourself just now. Now that the emperor is protecting him, do you want to get it if you ask for it? Besides, is there any evidence to prove that he arrested Dou Zhun?" Dou Huaishan said.
Dou Fu was startled.
Then he quickly said, "But the old slave is afraid that the young master will really be in some danger."
"Even if he is allowed to take away the ten thousand taels of gold, he will not let Dou Zhun go." Dou Huaishan said, "He still remembers the fire and is taking Dou Zhun as a hostage, so Dou Zhun is in his hands. Here, everything will be fine for the time being."
"But Master, why don't you save the young master?" Dou Fu couldn't help but ask.
Dou Huaishan closed his eyes for a while, then slowly opened them and said, "Send the 10,000 taels of gold to his home. You don't have to say anything or ask anything. Come back as soon as you deliver it."
"Master, why is this? Since he won't let the young master go, why do he still give him gold?" Dou Fu asked puzzledly.
"Because this gold is not a scar for the thief, but for Li Qian!" Dou Huaishan said.
Dou Fu was startled, what's the difference?
But soon, he seemed to think of something.
If the gold gave the nominal thief a scar, then the Dou family's gold was really lost in vain.
But if it is sent to Li Qian's home, it will have two completely different properties.
After all, the thief Yishen and Li Qian could be the same person, or they could not be the same person.
By then everyone will know that Li Qi'an took the Dou family's gold, which may even arouse the emperor's suspicion.
The master wants Li Qian to understand that the Dou family's gold is not easy to get.
…
The golden light in the yard was a bit dazzling.
Ten thousand taels, which is approximately equivalent to more than 600 kilograms in modern times.
More than 600 kilograms of gold were piled neatly in the yard, which is equivalent to more than 100 million in modern times.
Yaya kept circling around the gold, "Dad, are all these golds really ours?"
She had seen a lot of silver, but this was the first time she saw so much gold. It was so dazzling that she could hardly open her eyes.
Not only her, Yun Niang has never seen so much gold.
Li Qian smiled and said, "They were all delivered to the door. If it's not ours, who else could it be?"
Yaya clapped her little hands and said it was great.
That way makes it hard for people to believe that she is not a little money-lover.
"Ms. sir, it's just as you expected. Lord Dou has delivered gold to your door. It's just that there is so much gold, do we really want to accept it?" Yun Niang couldn't help but ask.
"If he dares to give it away, of course we dare to accept it." Li Qian said with a smile, "This old fox wants to use these ten thousand taels of gold to plot against me. Let him plot it. He even puts up such a big show for fear that others won't know. I collected the gold from their Dou family."
"A Xing, Sanmei, it's time to work and move the gold." He also shouted to Huang Sanmei and A Xing who were standing aside.
After moving the gold, it was almost dark.
Li Qian stood in the yard and looked around with a smile.
As long as the palace's bodyguards are guarding this house, we don't have to worry about anyone stealing the gold.
"Li Zhengshilang!"
At this moment, a carriage came in a hurry.
Cheng Ji got off the horse and pulled Li Qian, "Hurry up and follow our family into the palace."
"Eunuch Cheng, it's so late. What are you doing in the palace? I haven't had dinner yet." Li Qian said with a smile.
"Li Zhengshilang, why are you having dinner? The emperor is very angry now." Cheng Ji said.
"Oh, the emperor is angry, why are you angry?" Li Qian asked with a smile.
"Now I have to ask you, Li Zhengshilang. It's better to come into the palace with our family quickly."
Cheng Ji pulled Li Qian into the carriage.
In the palace.
Li Yuanxian smashed several vases.
"Old dog, tell me, is Li Qian so greedy for money?"
"Your Majesty, he was very greedy for money as early as when he was in Beiba Village." Wang Chun said with his head lowered.
"I also know that he is greedy for money, but we can't even be greedy for the Dou family's wealth. What do you want to do with the Dou family's gold?" Li Yuanxian said with a serious face, "Dou Huaishan is really generous. Ten thousand taels of gold is enough." Then give it to him directly."
"Your Majesty, there may be another hidden reason for this," Wang Chun said.
"Hmph." Li Yuanxian snorted coldly, "I think he told me that he wanted to deal with the Dou family, but actually he wanted to eat both sides. In the end, I'm afraid I will be fooled by him."
