Chapter 1315 I'll Give You One Last Chance
Jin Chun also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and he was even more nervous at this moment.
The emperor glanced at Jin Chun, but said nothing.
The emperor now doesn't want Zhao Chen to find the 500,000 jin of silver coins lost by the Ministry of Revenue.
Otherwise, why did he ask Zhao Chen to pay that one million yuan?
"What Mr. Jin said is reasonable. If you don't find anything in such a big lake, wouldn't it be a waste of time and manpower?"
"Let's go somewhere else and look for it."
"Besides, even if you are not found, you, Zhao Chen, are rich, right?" the emperor said lightly.
He didn't believe what Zhao Chen said before was not rich.
Seeing the emperor acting so shamelessly, Zhao Chen really had no choice but to do anything to him for a moment.
"Miss Xue, come with me to check the account book, let them find it here." Zhao Chen didn't want to waste time here with the emperor.
The entire Ministry of Revenue Department went over and looked for it.
But nothing was found.
Apart from the big lake in front, there is no place where you can hide 500,000 jin of silver coins.
The emperor did not allow himself to investigate, it was clearly intentional.
Isn’t it just that Zhao Chen wants to make a million yuan tomorrow?
The emperor's abacus was crackling.
But Zhao Chen would not be able to take such a loss.
Miss Xue was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, Zhao Chen grabbed her arm and walked towards Shangshu's work station.
After being pulled by Zhao Chen, Miss Xue's head felt a smoky cloud of mushy.
When stepping on the ground, it feels like stepping on the ground.
When I walked, I even stumbled.
"Miss Xue, are you okay?" Zhao Chen pulled Miss Xue into the Shangshu Workstation. Seeing Miss Xue's head lowered, he thought something had happened to her.
"No...it's okay." Miss Xue's family shook her head quickly.
She was already very embarrassed when she hugged Zhao Chen before, but that time, both of them were not awake.
But just now...
This is the first time that Miss Xue’s arm was pulled by a young man.
At this moment, my heart was already full of deer.
"Don't look at the emperor's guy who looks anxious."
"But when he thought that if we couldn't find the 500,000 yuan, he could solve the Hedong incident perfectly, he thought even more about delaying the time." Zhao Chen didn't care about the appearance of Miss Xue's current moment and said to her behind her back
Bad words from the emperor.
Miss Xue's family also recovered from her anxiety just now.
"Young Master Zhao, what do you mean is that the missing 500,000 jin of silver coins is in that lake?" Miss Xue's family looked at Zhao Chen.
She seemed a little confident when she saw Zhao Chen's attitude.
But Zhao Chen had never visited the lake in person and had never sent anyone there, so why was he so sure?
"Ms. Xue still remembers the water traces we saw in the warehouse?" Zhao Chen sat down on the chair beside him and asked with a smile.
"Remember, isn't that a trace left after the decay of silver money in the warehouse?" Zhao Chen asked.
Miss Xue nodded. She remembered that when several people entered the warehouse, in addition to a large number of footprints, there were also many water marks.
Mahu told them that although the warehouse is opened once a day, there are often water traces left by the rotten wooden boxes.
"Isn't that the water trace left after the wooden box rotting? What?" Miss Xue's family was puzzled.
Zhao Chen shook his head. Those water marks were not left after the wooden box decayed as Ma Hu said.
But after someone threw the box full of money into the lake, the water level in the lake suddenly rose, soaking some people's shoes and trousers.
These people may not care or forget it, and continued to move money in the warehouse in their shoes.
The warehouse is already relatively wet, and it is not so easy to dry if it is stained with water.
And it's not too long.
So when they came back today, they could still see a lot of water traces.
"Those water traces are left behind by the thief's legs being wet with the rising lake water."
"Ms. Xue also said this morning, the steps are complicated, and they are all shoe prints from the Ministry of Revenue."
"So, the only possibility is that the money sinks into the lake, and there are yamen runners from the Ministry of Revenue participating." Zhao Chen and Miss Xue's family explained.
Of course, Jin Chun was involved.
However, even with the two Ministry of Revenue officials who left with him yesterday, they were far from able to sink all 500,000 jin of silver coins into the lake one day and one night.
Therefore, the yamen runners of the Ministry of Revenue who were on duty yesterday should have participated in many people.
"In this way, aren't there many people participating? How could the yamen runners of the Ministry of Revenue agree..."
"Just promise them, won't it be enough to share their money at that time?"
"Besides, as the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Jin Chun is still very prestigious in the Ministry of Revenue. Under the dual suppression of power and money, they will definitely take a chance." Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Miss Xue's family looked at Zhao Chen, and she thought that there must be no way to solve the problem today.
In the end, Zhao Chen must still be responsible for this matter. At least one million jin of silver coins is needed.
But after Zhao Chen's analysis, Miss Xue's family seemed to understand a little.
But what she couldn't figure out was that since Zhao Chen knew that the missing money was in the lake, why didn't he send someone to search?
Instead, sitting here, it seems that nothing has happened?
He was not worried at all, maybe he had made a mistake in his analysis?
"Miss Xue, please be busy with your own affairs. I'll take a break here!" Miss Xue's family was about to ask again, but she heard Zhao Chen speak.
A lot of doubts were kept in my heart, and Miss Xue didn't bother Zhao Chen, and was busy with her own affairs.
...
When the emperor got the news, he knew that Zhao Chen was lying in the yamen to rest.
It was because Zhao Chen knew that the missing 500,000 jin of silver was hidden in the lake of the Ministry of Revenue.
He looked back at Jin Chun and said, "Did you hide the missing silver money in the lake?"
Jin Chun trembled all over when the emperor asked this.
He quickly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know."
"I only learned about this today, and I don't know who has such a courage..."
"Enough, Jin Chun, don't you think no one can see through your performance, do you?" The emperor interrupted Jin Chun's words coldly.
Jin Chun was startled.
He didn't know if he was exposed because of what he said just now.
But now, he certainly cannot admit it.
The stole 500,000 jin of silver coins of the Ministry of Revenue, which was the death penalty for beheading.
"Your Majesty, I don't know!" Jin Chun gritted his teeth and argued with the emperor.
The emperor came over, kicked Jin Chun over and shouted, "If I hadn't stopped him just now, Zhao Chen would have sent someone to the lake."
"Do you think Zhao Chen really can't find this thing?"
"He is waiting for me to come over and wait for me to deal with you as a bastard."
The emperor also understood why Zhao Chen was sitting in the yamen office and rested without sending anyone to the lake to find the lost money.
That was the boy who deliberately asked him, the emperor, to come and deal with this matter.
Only when he, the emperor, comes to deal with this matter personally, will Zhao Chen not have to be this evil person.
What a good boy, being the Minister of Revenue is that he doesn’t want to make any effort!
