The next day, Li Chenan had a bruised nose and swollen face.

A look of weariness.

Xiao Baozi was full of energy and radiant, as if he had been reborn from nirvana compared to yesterday.

There was no trace of the distress on her face after learning the news yesterday, and she seemed to have forgotten those bad things.

She didn't even mention the eight taels of silver she spent to buy charcoal to Li Chenan, and she began to regard herself as the owner of the room.

"Wang Zhenghaoxuan,"

Xiao Baozi peeled an egg for Li Chenan, put it in Li Chenan's bowl, and raised his eyes to Wang Zhenghaoxuan, who was sitting opposite.

"There are two dogs in the Temple of the Emerald Buddha."

"This snow won't stop for a while."

She said nothing more.

Wang Zhenghaoxuan suddenly grinned: "Junior understands!"

"From now on, you, you, no longer need to call yourself junior..."

Xiao Baozi reached out and took out another egg. He peeled it and said calmly:

"Seniority is not important. You and I are similar in age. From now on, just call me Sister Xiao."

Wang Zhenghaoxuan doesn't know what happened last night.

He was suddenly stunned. He once called her Miss Xiao, but she pointed her sword at them and said that she was the same generation as the mountain owner of Mu Shan Dao!

Then she should be called Senior Xiao!

Why did you suddenly change your mind?

Amu immediately understood that Wang Zhenghaoxuan did not understand, "This..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Amu:

"Ahem!" Amu pretended to cough twice, "Junior brother, since Sister Xiao said so, let's just listen."

"Oh," Wang Zhenghaoxuan didn't know why, so he turned to Li Chenan.

He noticed Li Chen'an's bruised nose and swollen face, and wondered if it was because Li Chen'an fell down when he went to the latrine last night without holding a lamp?

Then he saw Xiao Baozi's hand reach into Li Chenan's bowl again, and she put down the freshly peeled egg——

Li Chenan spoke:

"This is enough, I can't eat that much!"

"Eat more, you need good health supplements. Men eat more to grow strong and have strength!"

Before Wang Zhenghaoxuan realized it, he felt that Sister Xiao was a little biased towards this guy Li Chenan?

He was about to say that the egg was his, but he was stopped by his senior brother Amu:

"Junior brother, Xiao Wu also prescribed a prescription."

"You go to the Jade Buddha Temple to catch the dog and come back. On the way, go to Anji Hall to catch a pair of medicine."

Wang Zhenghaoxuan was stunned again, feeling a little weird: "Who is sick?"

"Nobody got sick."

"Then what are you doing with the medicine?"

"Have a baby!"

Li Chenan: "..."

Wang Zhenghaoxuan: "..."

Xiao Baozi's face turned red, he turned around with an egg and walked out the door.

…

…

Imperial Palace, Imperial City Department.

In this heavy snowfall, the Imperial City changed from black to white, but the color still looked a bit monotonous.

The crooked-necked tree is still there.

The deck chair under the crooked neck tree is still there.

It's just that the old man who has been sitting on this deck chair under this tree for twenty years is no longer there.

At this moment, Li Chenan was lying on the recliner.

uncomfortable.

Too hard.

Back!

"Old Wang..."

Wang Zhengjinzhong bowed slightly, his eyes always falling on Li Chenan's face.

This is the dignified regent of Ningguo!

The existence of the uncrowned king!

Who dares to beat him into this state?

He was curious but didn't dare to ask.

"Ah, my subordinate is here!"

"Have the results of the house raids of those officials who were slaughtered come out?"

"Back to the regent, he has come out. You don't know, but Li Shangshu is very happy!"

Li Chenan opened his eyes, "So, quite a lot?"

"It's a lot!"

"My subordinates sent people from seven departments to work with officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs to carefully clean up one by one. Not counting their properties, the money found from their houses alone amounted to more than 167 million taels.

Huge!”

When Li Chenan heard this, a guy sat up from the recliner, and his red and swollen eyes suddenly lit up:

"so much?"

"Not counting those calligraphy and paintings, antiques, jewelry and jade!"

Wang Zheng Jinzhong handed over his hand and said: "Sir, that old thief Jita alone has purchased nine properties in Kyoto!"

"Those properties are only guarded by a few servants, and they are all used to store gold and silver treasures!"

"As for the property Ji Tai has plundered over the years, Li Shangshu said it is shocking. I am afraid it will exceed 100 million taels of silver!"

Li Chenan took a deep breath, 100 million yuan... what the hell!

Since the first year of Zhaohua, in the past twenty-three years, the year in which Ningguo collected the most taxes was the second year of Zhaohua. However, even if the taxes, grain, cloth and other items were converted into silver, it was only more than 30 million taels!

This old guy made 100 million taels of silver alone in more than ten years... No wonder everyone wants to be an official.

However, confiscating these properties now will solve the most urgent crisis at the moment.

Well done, Xi Wei!

It's a pity that he didn't kill the remaining four princes together.

Li Chenan lay down again and breathed a sigh of relief with so much money.

"The Imperial City Division has changed the rules. Do they have any objections?"

"Go back to the regent. If you have any objections, my subordinates have already dealt with them!"

Li Chenan was startled, then raised his eyes, and saw Wang Zheng Jinzhong grinning: "The Imperial City Division used to walk around at night, and some dogs would take advantage of the night to do some sneaky things."

"My hands and feet are not clean."

"Master Changsun actually caught their pigtails when he was here, but he didn't make any announcement."

"Now, Prince Regent, since you want the Imperial City to walk in the sunshine...those who are not used to the sunshine should die."

Li Chenan nodded silently.

"You ordered the commander-in-chief Zheng Wang of the first branch, and the first branch still has to secretly investigate who Xi Wei is!"

"He's definitely not dead!"

"But you must not make it public. If you find clues about Xi Wei and determine who he is, that will be enough. The rest... we will talk about it when I come back."

Wang Zheng responded to the golden bell, leaned over and whispered: "Prince Regent, do you want to go to Changle Palace?"

"It takes five or six days to go back and forth. I don't have time. How is it going over there now?"

"The city is now empty... Xia Yunhu was originally discovered, but he ran away with hundreds of people and entered Qishan. The second branch is still searching inside Qishan... I'm afraid it won't be easy to find."
To be continued...
