I.

this.

Chen Buyi scratched his head.

"Mr. Cao, this was just sent by General Lu Qisheng of Dingxi. I don't know what it is inside. The gift list is still here."

After saying that, he reached out to take the envelope from Feng Wu and handed it on.

Cao Nan took it and took it in his hand and looked through it.

The envelope was also sealed with fire paint, but it seemed that it was not opened.

He turned to look at Chen Buyi, "Mr. Shen, then I'm not polite."

Chen Buyi nodded and made a gesture of asking for help.

Cao Nan slowly opened the envelope and took out a piece of paper from it.

The paper was folded in three folds. When he opened it, he only took a look and his face changed suddenly.

He handed the letter forward, "Mr. Shen, you'd better take a look at it yourself."

On the paper, it clearly stated, "Three thousand taels of silver."

Five hundred taels of gold.”

This is a huge sum of money at any time.

I'll take a break, what the hell is this?

Chen Buyi suddenly realized that he was unconsciously trapped in a terrible conspiracy.

Seeing Chen Buyi being stunned, Cao Nan reached out to his hand, took the letter back and put it carefully in the envelope.

"Mr. Shen, it's a big deal. I'm afraid you have to go with me."

Chen Buyi smiled bitterly.

Nodded slightly.

"Can I let me make arrangements?"

Cao Nan nodded, called everyone to pull the carriage and walked out.

Chen Buyi returned to the house, and the three sisters of the Yu family came first.

"Young Master, it's really hateful to wait for us to teach this Cao Nan a lesson."

Shen Buyi waves his hand.

"Listen, no matter what happens, no one is allowed to attack the official army. Do you understand?"

Although the three sisters of the Yu family were reluctant, they nodded slightly.

Then, Chen Buyi said to Chen Junru who was about to open his mouth: "I'm afraid I won't be able to explain this matter clearly for a while. After I leave later, you should go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and find Yao Yi. He knows what to do."

After settling down, Chen Buyi glanced at everyone present. When he saw Liu Yuyao, he saw a lot of care in her eyes.

Chen Buyi nodded slightly and gave Liu Yuyao a response.

It was this response that made Liu Yuyao's mood clearer in an instant.

The unhappiness that just now arises because of not measuring the size has disappeared.

Jingzhao Prefecture.

The prefect Cao Nan was not difficult for Shen Buyi, but he ordered someone to build a room alone so that Shen Buyi could go in and rest.

But he himself was sitting under the oil lamp, and was a little helpless.

Just now, he was planning to have supper, but he received a report that someone was trafficking in silence, which was a first-class felony. As the direct manager of Chang'an City, he naturally had no choice.

But why is it so coincidental that Chen Buyi set up a cart of private salt in the yard at home.

Not only that, but Lu Qisheng's gift list is also there.

One move can be done with thousands of taels of real money.

It seemed that the matter was at a glance. Chen Buyi sold private salt and even collected so much gold and silver from Lu Qisheng.

But this seems to be a bit coincidental. It was easier for me to arrest the suspect.

Just when he was puzzled, Li Chuang came to report, "Sir, someone came from the Prime Minister's Mansion outside, saying that Prime Minister Yao will arrive in a while."

"What!"

Cao Nan was shocked.

He quickly got up and hurried to the door to greet him.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the yamen, Yao Chong's sedan chair arrived.

Cao Nan quickly stepped forward and bowed to the end, "Student Cao Nan, pay homage to Prime Minister Yao."

Yao Chong nodded, "Mr. Cao doesn't have to be too polite."

After saying that, he looked around and said, "I heard that you solved a major case today."

When Cao Nan heard this, he understood that this was a matter of not being easy to come.

I couldn't help but feel surprised. This Shen Buyi is indeed very good at hand and eyes. Prime Minister Yao Chong also came to plead for him personally.

He hurried forward and led the way and said, "Teacher, please go into the house and talk."

In the living room of Jingzhao Mansion.

Someone brought the tea up, Cao Nan waved his hand, reported to the servants, and whispered, "Teacher, please give me advice."

Yao Chong waved his hand, "I have nothing to say. Please handle this matter impartially."

Cao Nan bowed, "Thank you for your reminder, but the students think this is really strange."

After saying that, Cao Nan took Lu Qisheng's gift list from his sleeve and handed it to Yao Chong.

Yao Chong took it in his hand and took a brief look.

I couldn't help but breathe a long sigh.

This Lu Qisheng did such a frivolous thing.

"Teacher, do you think you want to go to Lu Mansion to check it out?"

Cao Nan asked carefully.

Yao Chong could naturally hear the meaning of the words. This was Cao Nan who wanted to go, but his official position was not enough, and he just wanted to come forward by himself.

He nodded, "Okay, bring this letter and bring Chen Buyi, and let him go to Lu's house to identify it and see who was giving it to him."

General Dingxi's Mansion.

Although it is not generous, the door plaque is written by the emperor himself, so it seems a little more majestic.

When he heard that Yao Chong was coming, Lu Qisheng had no time to change his official uniform and hurriedly came out.

As soon as they met, Lu Qisheng bowed without saying a word.

"Last general Lu Qisheng, pay homage to the Prime Minister."

Yao Chong smiled and stepped forward to help him up.

"General Lu, don't be polite."

Lu Qisheng stood up straight, looked at Cao Nan and Shen Buyi who were following Yao Chong, and turned his face to look at Yao Chong, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

But I still didn't forget the way of hospitality, "Prime Minister, please come in and ask."

A group of people followed Lu Qisheng to the living room and sat down.

Yao Chong said with a serious look on his face, "General Lu, I'm really sorry. Now there is something I need to verify with you, so.

.

.

.

.”

Before he could finish speaking, Lu Qisheng smiled slightly, "The Prime Minister is so serious, just say it if you have something to do."

Yao Chong nodded and then said to Cao Nan, "Tell me about the matter with General Lu."

After hearing Cao Nan finish his story, Lu Qisheng slapped the table, "Who can you dare to ruin my old Lu's reputation? Prime Minister Yao, you and I have been in the same court for many years. Who did you give me silver to?"

After saying that, he shouted loudly to the door, "Come."

Soon, the old butler Baogang opened the door and entered.

"Baogang, go and call all the servants in the mansion over."

Baogang didn't know what happened, but when he saw that the master looked bad, he didn't dare to ask, so he turned around and left in a hurry.

There was not much time, and there were bursts of noise in the yard.

Then, Baogang came in, "Master, all 105 people in the mansion have arrived."

Lu Qisheng stood up and said, "Prime Minister Yao, please."

Yao Chong turned his face and carefully reminded Chen Buyi, "Nephew Chen, you should take a closer look.

Don't recognize the wrong person."

Chen Buyi nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, Prime Minister Yao, I recognize that person."
