Chapter 159 Finding Fang Bo
"Diao Nu, who gave you such guts to steal gold!" Zhou Wu was not a generous master, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help kicking his pockmarked face again.

However, this scene fell into Murong Jing's eyes, but he had a different idea. He chuckled lightly and said lightly: "Boss Zhou really has a rich family background. It seems that this errand in this Palace can be completed very well."

errand?

what errand?
Zhou Wu was stunned for a moment, and looked straight at Murong Jing regardless of his superiority or inferiority. Murong Jing didn't want to show off, and said truthfully: "The battle ahead is tight, but the treasury is empty, and we can't afford the food and pay for the army to go out for a while. The father thought about it, so he had to ask Ben Gong to borrow military rations from the bosses in Beijing, and return the principal with interest after the war is over. Boss Zhou has always been loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and with such abundance in his hands, he will naturally give generously. Is this palace right?"

"What His Royal Highness said is very true. Boss Zhou is the most sensible." Qu Lingxu also echoed with a smile on his face as it was no big deal for those who watched the excitement from left to right.

If she dared to attack her subordinates, she deserved to pay a heavy price.

……

No matter which businessman heard Murong Jing's words, it would be like a bolt from the blue, and Zhou Wu was no exception. He said that there would be interest on the loan, but whoever had the guts to ask the court for the debt would be the emperor one by then. Not happy, just finding any excuse is enough for them to ransack the family and exterminate the family, so... if the money is taken out, it will be meat buns and dogs, and there will be no return.

Everyone is aware of this, but no one who is heartless will say it. Seeing that this "robbery" can't be escaped, they all gave some food and money in a symbolic way. Of course, Murong Jing will not be too embarrassing for them. Forcing them to empty out their family, but Zhou Wu had such an episode here, if he didn't take the opportunity to force him to bleed a little more, it would be unreasonable...

Seeing Murong Jing and Qu Lingxu singing in unison and putting on top hats for himself, Zhou Wu was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. He gritted his teeth to hold back the urge to curse, squeezed out a smile uglier than crying, and said: " What His Royal Highness said was that when the imperial court needed it, Xiaomin should contribute, but Xiaomin's pawn shop was just a small business, and the profit was not much. Even if all the working capital was counted, it could only It’s only 1000 taels, please don’t dislike it, Your Highness.”

1000 two?

Qu Lingxu laughed angrily at Zhou Wu's words, which were almost like dismissing beggars, and secretly sighed that the other party really competed with the miser A Bagong in "The Miser Man", giving up his life and money.

However, Murong Jing is the one who needs money. Her top priority now is to quickly find Fang Bo, so she looked at Mazi's face coldly, and said in a condensed voice: "The princess has already made her words very clear. , coupled with the current crime of stealing the owner’s property, even if the sentence is light, it is enough to send you to exile in the bitter cold of the Western Regions. Whether you want this life or not is entirely up to you.” After saying this, Qu Lingxu seemed to be Thinking of something, he continued to add: "Also, you'd better make sure that Fang Bo can stand in front of this princess unscathed, otherwise, no matter you or your family's life, this princess will be determined."

Every time he encountered this kind of situation, Qu Lingxu was extremely happy that he was in ancient times, because he could sit here at will, and threatening the lives of his family members was simply not very easy to use.

"Princess Xinyue County is merciful, but I can't tolerate sand in my eyes. If you insist on carrying it and don't say it, I will have someone take you to the Department of Punishment right now. Under the heavy punishment of the Criminal Division, there are still a few taels of meat left." Murong Jing added with a gloomy expression.

As the prince of the dynasty, Murong Jing wanted the lives of several servants without any effort at all. The pockmarked face was frightened by Qu Lingxu at first, but now it was threatened by Murong Jing again. Once limp, he prostrated limply on the ground, and said repeatedly with tears in his eyes: "The servant said, the servant said everything, he...he is in the secret room!"

Zhou Wu wanted to stop Ma Zilian from speaking, but before it was too late, he stood on the spot like a wooden stake, with a mournful expression on his face.

"You still know some current affairs." Murong Jing snorted softly, and asked the guards to follow the pockmarked face to rescue Fang Bo, but considering the special nature of the secret room, he thought about it, and he followed it himself, and everyone left , Qu Lingxu was not interested in staying alone in the main hall, so he simply followed.

Although Fang Bo had many wounds from the whip, but fortunately Qu Lingxu chased after him not long after, so he could barely move. He was lingering at the door of the secret room, thinking how to escape, when he saw the door of the secret room was blocked. Open it, and Murong Jing and others appeared in front of him without warning.

"Princess..." Fang Bo was the first to see Qu Lingxu. He knew that Qu Lingxu was here to save him. He felt a sore nose, and knelt down, "Xiaomin sees the princess, and the princess is worried."

Hearing Fang Bo's weak voice, and looking at the scattered clothes and blood on his body, Qu Lingxu could only feel a burst of anger welling up in his heart, but he didn't explode immediately, but said lightly: "Thanks With the help of His Highness the Crown Prince, this princess can find you smoothly, please thank His Highness the Crown Prince."

Fang Bo just felt that the man next to Qu Lingxu had an extraordinary behavior, but he never expected that he would be the crown prince, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, so he hurriedly saluted Murong Jing. After a few words of comfort, he asked Fang Bo to step back and deal with the wound first.

Compared to Fang Bo, he was more interested in the mountains of gold, silver and jewels in the secret room.

1000 two?

He wanted Zhou Wu to pay a heavy price for his stinginess.

The moment he saw Fang Bo, Zhou Wu felt a chill down his spine. He was afraid that in the next second, Qu Lingxu would blame him. Unexpectedly, the other party didn't say anything, but Murong Jing thought about it a little, and said: "Xinyue, what do you think about this matter?"

What do you think?This is a secret room, without Zhou Wu's instruction, how dare a servant with pockmarked face hide Fang Bo here?
How could Murong Jing fail to see such an obvious matter, knowing that, but still asking such a question, there can only be one purpose, that is, he wants to let Zhou Wu go temporarily, and the purpose is all the gold, silver and jewels in this secret room!

Left and right, arresting a commoner is nothing more than a petty crime, and it is not enough to hurt Zhou Wu. It is better to be a favor and make a stroke of it. In this way, the other party will not only dare not have any objections, but also be grateful to Dade .

The real dumb eat Coptis chinensis, and can't tell the pain.

Although Qu Lingxu didn't want to let Zhou Wu go, but he absolutely couldn't refute Murong Jing's face, so he took a deep look at Zhou Wu who was terrified and uneasy, and smiled slowly with an unclear expression, "Return to His Royal Highness If so, from the perspective of my servant, this matter is very clear, it must be that this slave couldn't let go of the previous resentment for a long time, so he took the opportunity to kidnap Fang Bo back to the mansion, and then he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he locked him in the secret room again." See Murong Jing's eyes relaxed, and she was very satisfied with her answer. Qu Lingxu continued: "As for Boss Zhou, I thought, he shouldn't be involved in such stupid things...is that right, Boss Zhou?"

Zhou Wu was thinking about how to get himself out of this mess, but Qu Lingxu took the initiative to speak up, he was overjoyed, isn't it?
Turning around, he nodded his head, "The princess is wise, even if Xiaomin has the courage, he would not dare to do such a lawless thing!"

As long as Qu Lingxu uttered a word, Fang Bo, a poor master, would not dare to pursue it. In this way, this catastrophe will be over.

just silver...

Zhou Wu only felt that his whole body was hurting, but in front of Xiao Ming'er, these were not that important.

"Boss Zhou is naturally good." Qu Lingxu took a deep look at Zhou Wu, until he saw nothing to hide, and then continued: "Now that the court is in trouble, Boss Zhou should be a rich businessman in the whole capital. Set an example, donate a lot of money and goods, so it will not be in vain that the crown prince values ​​you."

Yes, outsiders will not know the reason why Zhou Wu donated so much silver, so he will only do it on purpose when he thinks he wants to curry favor with the imperial court. Qu Lingxu couldn't help but feel a little more at ease when he thought about being excluded.

Why beat him to death with a stick, when she fanned the wind behind her back and lit the fire, many people would have trouble with Zhou Wu.

Qu Lingxu could think of these things, so Zhou Wu could naturally think of them too, but now he is on the verge of riding a tiger, and he has no chance to refute at all, so he can only grit his teeth and apologize with a smile: "What the princess said is true."

"Since this is the case, I would like to thank Boss Zhou for his generosity on behalf of the people of the world." Saying this, Murong Jing ordered to his confidant guards: "Go to Jingzhao Yin's Mansion to find more people, and take this secret room. After all the items are registered in the register, they will all be moved to the government for storage, and tomorrow morning, I will report back to the emperor."

Yes, everyone heard it right, Murong Jing wanted to move all these priceless treasures away, not leaving even a scum to Zhou Wu.

Zhou Wu almost fainted when he heard this. You must know that most of these things belong to Li Bin. If Li Bin knew the news, he might have to peel his skin...

Want to cry but have no tears, this is called want to cry but have no tears.

Seeing Zhou Wu's mournful face, Qu Lingxu chuckled unkindly, and then gave Murong Jing a blessing, "His Royal Highness is working hard for the court. It's really hard. I don't want to disturb you any more. I'll leave first." , and wait for the prescription to be changed another day, and then enter the palace to recuperate the phoenix body for the empress."

After finally finding a chance to get along with Qu Lingxu, Murong Jing naturally didn't want to say goodbye so soon, but it was too late, and it would be inappropriate to keep her, so she nodded slightly and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I'll wait for you." After the palace returns to the palace, it must be reported to the queen mother, and if the princess is free in the future, she should often enter the palace to pay her respects to the queen mother."

"My lady, thank you Your Highness." Qu Lingxu nodded slightly, agreeing.

If she didn't find a chance to enter the palace, how could she mention Jin Qu Fengyan as a concubine's daughter in front of the queen, and later point out that she married Murong Li?

This is the most unexpected harvest today.
