Chapter 261: Pleasy

A layer of yellow skin and a piece of mud, with a little lead block in the middle, these golds are fake!

Twenty boxes of gold, only one layer on top is coated with some gold edges, and the others are just dyed yellow.

"Where did my gold go?!" With Liu Yi's roar, everyone stared at the Minister of War, Hou Junji, who was judging aside.

Poor Hou Junji's pain of losing his son after his firm Sutra, he was hindered by revenge and was a little dazed. He suddenly saw that the gold in the box broke from the middle, and he was stunned.

What's going on?

Twenty boxes of real gold, why did it turn into bricks at once?

Being deceived is the only thought in Hou Junji's mind. The gold is not entirely true.

He stared at Liu Yip in his eyes, full of anger, but could not speak. He knew that this was a mute loss, and until now, he had no choice but to defend himself.

Where did Liu Yi's gold go?

The crowds of onlookers, the yamen runners in the hall, and even some ministers around Li Shimin, naturally thought of such a question in their minds.

At this moment, few people suspected that the twenty boxes of gold might have been fake from the beginning.

"Mr. Liu," Liu Yiuan knelt down in the lobby again, looked at Liu Dewei, and said angrily: "Xiaomin's gold is twenty boxes, Lord. Why are they now turned into some broken bricks? Where is my gold, Lord. Liu?"

"This," Liu Dewei was also speechless. He never expected that there would be such a result. Why did the twenty boxes of gold turn into bricks? Liu Dewei couldn't help but look at Hou Junji. These boxes were sent directly from Hou Junji's army. From real to fake, he, the old Hou, naturally had no connection.

"Shangshu Hou," Liu Dewei was famous for being straightforward. When he thought of it, he asked directly, "These twenty boxes were just sent from the Weihu Army, and they had never been handed over by others. Now, I wonder what explanation did Secretary Hou give? Where did those twenty boxes of real gold go?"

At the end of the question, Liu Dewei's tone couldn't help but feel a little severity. A major case of rebellion was tried, but the current case of real and fake gold was investigated, and he felt a little angry.

"Mr. Liu, what do you mean?" Old Man Hou looked up at Liu Dewei and said, "Is it possible that Lord Liu is suspicious that Hou had secretly exchanged his gold?"

"Apart from that, Xiaguan really couldn't think of other reasons," Liu Dewei's tone remained unchanged, and he looked at Hou Junji coldly and said, "Twenty boxes of gold, a pile of wealth that is enough to move some people with weak will. Although Xiaguan didn't want to doubt Hou Shangshu, in the entire Weihu Army, Xiaguan really couldn't think of anyone who could have such a big way to transfer thousands of pounds of things without knowing it!"

"Mr. Liu, you have to make decisions for the common people!" Seeing Liu Dewei's advance, Liu Yiu also cooperated and cried, saying, "Originally, Xiaomin thought that the whole country was severe this year. Although there were water trucks to help, there were still many places that were affected. These twenty boxes of gold were unexpected wealth. Xiaomin only left one box to cover the household expenses. The remaining nineteen boxes were donated to those affected areas to accumulate merit for themselves and their descendants. You may not know that Xiaomin's wife had just been pregnant. This time we came to Chang'an to be blessed for her and the children in her belly. I originally thought that when I returned, I would donate the gold to donate it. But who would have thought that this would happen? Sir, you must make decisions for the common people. Can't those gold be greedy for no reason?"

After saying something, he was full of emotion. When he heard people outside, especially a villager, crying, Mr. Liu was willing to take out nineteen boxes of gold to provide disaster relief. He was such a good person.

"Please ask Lord Liu to recover the gold and severely punish those who are greedy and lose!"

"Please ask Lord Liu to recover the gold and severely punish those who are greedy and lose!"

Seeing that the time was already in the heat, Ma Cheng took the opportunity to yell outside, and the others were also infected and began to shout with yelling, recovering the gold and severely punishing the stolen ones.

Hou Junji's face changed in a flash, three colors: red, white, and green. Now it is developing in the direction of black, twenty boxes of gold, these people are asking for his life.

"Your Majesty, look at this," Fang Xuanling looked at the current situation, leaned over to Li Shimin, and asked him softly.

"Well, this guy Liu Yi still has some conscience. He was willing to divide the 19 boxes in twenty boxes. Haha, it's really rare. A person as greedy as him will be so generous this time," Li Shimin chuckled, looked at Liu Yi, who was still kneeling under the lobby, and nodded gently.

"The emperor said, Mr. Liu's move is indeed a righteous act, and I am very impressed by it." Fang Xuanling responded lightly, then sat back obediently, looking at Liu Yi and Hou Junji in the field, and stopped talking.

Changsun Wuji stroked his beard lightly, lowered his head and said silently. From Li Shimin's words just now, he could have heard that Li Shimin was afraid that he would have to take Hou Junji to surgery this time.

Alas, Changsun Wuji looked up at Hou Junji who was unkind and looked at Liu Yi, who was resolutely resigned, and couldn't help but sigh. Wu Zuijian really shouldn't have offended this Liu Yi. This time, the Hou's mansion will be in trouble.

"Brother Prince, what do you think is going on? Did the twenty boxes of gold be embezzled by Shangshu Hou?" Princess Yuzhang pretended to be Li Ru again, stood beside Li Chengqian, and asked him softly.

"Probably not?" Li Chengqian frowned slightly. At this point, he couldn't make up for the situation. Twenty boxes of gold, either a decimal or a prince. When he first saw so much gold, his heart was beating. Could it be that he was really replaced by his father-in-law, right?

No, Li Chengqian shook his head lightly again. Even if he was obsessed with money, he would not do such a stupid thing as Hou Junji. Isn’t this asking for trouble?

"No matter whether he changed it or not, this matter cannot be separated from him. This time, Shangshu Hou is in trouble." Princess Yuzhang glanced at her prince's brother. Due to the relationship between Hou Junji and Li Chengqian, she endured the laughter without any happiness.

When things have developed to this point, Liu Yiu must have nothing to do. What is left is just how to find out the gold.

"Silent!" Liu Dewei slapped the agglomeration, suppressing the sounds inside and outside the hall. He glanced at the scholars and villagers outside and said sternly: "I have a judgment on this matter. I will recover the gold and the stolen person. I will find it out and give Liu one explanation to me, and give everyone an explanation!"

"Thank you, Lord Liu!" Liu Yi thanked Liu Dewei loudly at the right time.

"Well, Liu Yiuan, since there is insufficient evidence of the crime of treason, you should get up and talk." Liu Dewei glanced at Liu Yiu and said to him softly.

"Thank you!" Liu Yimeng got up from the ground with an iron chain and bowed slightly to Liu Dewei.

"Shangshu Hou," then Liu Dewei turned his head and looked at Hou Junji, and asked him in a voice: "Now, the fact that twenty boxes of gold were transferred to the house is the most suspicious. If Hou Shangshu refuses to admit it, in order to clear the suspicion of Hou Shangshu, he will give Hou Shangshu a cleansing position. The subordinate officials want to ask the emperor, so they can order the subordinates to the Hou Mansion and search for the military camp. I wonder if Hou Shangshu has any objections?"

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Liu, please give me a gift!" Hou Junji took a long breath and pretended to be fearless.

"Mr. Liu," at this time, Liu Yiuan looked at Hou Junji, chuckled and interrupted, "When the search was conducted, Xiaomin asked to go with him. I heard that there was an underground treasure trove hidden in the back garden on Hou Shangshu's mansion. Xiaomin also wanted to see and see if there was any gold lost by Xiaomin."

"Oh?" Liu Dewei raised his eyebrows, and he could hear some clues from Liu Yi's words. He looked up at Hou Junji and asked Hou Junji softly: "Hou Shangshu, do you have any objections to what Liu Yi said?"

"Okay, you don't have to go," as soon as Liu Yi's words were spoken, Hou Jun gathered his confidence in his heart and suddenly he vented his anger. He stared at Liu Yi tightly, wondering how he knew the secret of the Hou's Mansion.

"I have accepted it. All the gold is taken by me." Hou Junji stepped forward, gritted his teeth, and took the blame all his fault, and ate Liu Yipeng's muteness set on him.

Alas, Li Shimin sighed in his heart. It seems that the previous rumor is true. This Hou Junji, alas!

At this point, Li Shimin no longer had the mood to continue watching. He stood up and drove back to the palace. After accompanying some ministers, he followed him out.

"Brother Prince, father is gone, let's go back too. There is nothing to see here." Princess Yuzhang's eyes stopped on Liu Yiu for a while, and then said softly to Li Chengqian beside him.

"Yes, Your Highness, if the emperor finds out that the princess has left the palace, he will inevitably scold him again. Let's go back quickly." The servant urged on the side.

"Oh! Let's go, let's go back to the palace too." Li Chengqian glanced at Hou Junji who was standing in the hall, and couldn't help but sigh, then stood up, led Yu Zhang and the servant out of the Ministry of Justice.
