Chapter 1523 view file
"My lord, there is only one box, and there are five boxes left. The rest must have been divided."
"Interrogate the captured people first." Chu Heng squatted down and took out the gold ingots inside. The official seal was stamped underneath, which shows that this batch of gold is disaster relief silver from the imperial court.
Not right...
Chu Heng frowned, and hurried back to the Ministry of Criminal Justice with the money, looking through the file, Liu Ruying and Zhang Zhi followed behind him, asking, "My lord, what can we do for you?"
"Look for the case of missing disaster relief money in the past fifteen years." Chu Heng saw that the two were willing to be free labor, so he was not polite and used it directly.
Liu Ruying didn't quite understand: "Sir, what are you doing, don't you continue to look for gold? What if they escape?"
Zhang Zhi was a little speechless when he heard him ask such a silly question.
"No, the gold can't escape." Chu Heng had confidence on his face.
Seeing that his friend was about to ask stupid questions again, Zhang Zhi quickly interrupted him: "Once we block up the secret book, the gold won't be able to escape, and the gate of the capital is in charge of the emperor's dragon guard, so we don't need to worry about it. They are more anxious than us, as long as they are in the city, they will be found sooner or later."
"Then why do we need to investigate the case?" Liu Ruying scratched her head, and her eyes were full of confusion when she raised her head: "Could it be that our mission has changed its target? We want to arrest those big corrupt officials?"
As he spoke, his eyes lit up, "Hey, I just said that your lord is a good official, and it's better to catch all those corrupt officials."
Zhang Zhi felt a toothache. If his brother was not obedient and good at martial arts, he probably would have been abandoned long ago, right?
Of course, the martial arts are good, but they are actually empty words for his face.
"Ahem." Zhang Zhi coughed twice, reminding him not to be stupid again.
Liu Ruying smiled like an idiot, saying that he is the son of the Earl's Mansion, but no one would believe him.
Chu Heng flipped through the case files quickly, and said casually: "These golds are disaster relief silver, but the imperial court has not provided disaster relief in recent years, so the silver must have come from an earlier age. I remember that the general disaster relief silver is silver." , seldom use gold..."
The amount of gold is small, even the imperial court will not sprinkle gold.
So, the goal is actually very clear.
Although Liu Ruying still didn't quite understand the direct connection between the previous case and the current search for gold, but out of trust in the adults, she hurried to find the file.
Because the Ministry of Punishment is not the Ministry of Household Affairs.
If it weren't for Zheng Guogong's case this time, Chu Heng would not be able to enter the Ministry of Criminal Justice at will.
The file of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is very chaotic, especially as it gets older, many evidences disappear.
A guard walked in from outside the door, and hurriedly reported to Chu Heng: "Lord Chu, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment is here and asked where you are. He came with him, and the Minister of the Household Department."
"Oh? They're all here?" Chu Heng raised his eyes, hummed lightly, took out a file and threw it into Zhang Zhi's arms.
stood up and said softly: "Then go out and meet the two adults."
Zhang Zhi hugged the file, and subconsciously looked down. When he saw the records on it, his pupils widened, and he subconsciously stuffed the file into his clothes.
Liu Ruying came over to look curiously, Zhang Zhi pushed him away, with a serious look on his face: "Go out and meet the two adults soon, don't give people an excuse to deal with you."
Liu Ruying shuddered instantly, her curiosity was immediately diverted, and she stretched her neck to look out.
Follow up quickly.
