I have a supermarket system, shocking the whole court

He observed carefully again and found that the skin of the maid's ears, neck and even wrists was dark but very delicate.

I think it must be a nobleman from the capital who came out in disguise.

He Nian has been in the business world for so many years, and what he is best at is observing people's words and expressions.

Even though he saw through him, he didn't say it out loud, he just became more respectful.

Then Shang Wenqi handed the store seal to Ning Ning in front of Shopkeeper He, and sorted out all the documents in front of Shopkeeper He before taking Ning Ning away.

Ning Ning was a little overwhelmed when she suddenly became the owner of a gold shop with a huge sum of money.

However, Shang Wenqi, looking at the woman in the carriage who couldn't suppress the smile, felt a little brighter for some reason.

It took Ning Ning a while to calm down and look at Shang Wenqi seriously: "Well... don't worry, since I have taken over your gold shop, I will naturally teach you the European painting skills without reservation. How about we have a class tonight?"

Shang Wenqi glanced at her and said nothing.

Ning Ning tilted her head and said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't delay the investigation. To be precise, one month is just enough time to teach Europa the painting skills. But I have to say something ugly first. Europa's painting skills are indeed not difficult to learn, but it takes a lot of time. It takes at least half a year to master them."

Seeing Ning Ning's sincere feelings, Shang Wenqi finally took action: "I'll let Zhou Mingyu find you."

"Huh?" Ning Ning was stunned: "Huh? Didn't you learn it?"

He donated a gold shop but it turned out that he didn't learn it for himself?

"You didn't say that I could only learn."

"Well, that's natural. Anyway, you've paid the money, so anyone can learn. Even teaching one is teaching, and teaching two is also teaching. Just send people over. I promise that everyone will be taught."

Shang Wenqi was about to speak when he heard a noise outside.

After a while, the driver whispered to the inside: "Boss, the palace wants to see you."

Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning were silent for a moment.

Then Shang Wenqi stood up and got out of the car: "You take her back home."

"Yes." The driver answered promptly.

Shang Wenqi quickly followed the people who came to look for him and left.

Ning Ning lifted the curtain of the carriage and watched Shang Wenqi disappear, then she sat back down and slowly looked through her account book.

It must be said that the gold shop's accounts were quite impressive, and the profit was far more than she had imagined.

But what really attracted her was not the income, but several large items.

Nowadays, nobles like to use gold to make chairs, bronze mirrors, Buddha statues, jewelry boxes, etc. Since this is the capital, there are more dignitaries and wealthy families, so the demand for these things is even greater.

There are quite a few of these things in the treasure house of Linglong Pavilion, weighing dozens or even hundreds of kilograms.

Ning Ning immediately perked up. Linglong Pavilion was indeed a great place.

In this way, isn’t she close to a ton of gold?

Thinking of this, Ning Ning couldn't help but feel excited.

After a while, she returned to the Royal Guard Mansion. Zhou Mingyu had already received the news and was waiting for her in the mansion.

Looking at this young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old, she really found it hard to imagine that he was older than Shang Wenqi and Song Sijing.

To be honest, she really envied Zhou Mingyu.

However, Zhou Mingyu was indifferent to Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning, "I heard that Miss Ning is well versed in European painting skills. Please teach me, Miss Ning."

Ning Ning was surprised: "Starting so soon?"

Shang Wenqi, this guy, really won't tolerate any loss and now he starts to exploit her.

"Miss Ning, are you inconvenient? Then I'll come back after lunch."

"Uh... no, let's start now. Laying the foundation is important, so it's better to hurry up."

Ning Ning could only put other things aside for the time being.

……

When Ning Ning started the sketching class, Shang Wenqi had already arrived at the palace.

It was nearly noon and the court had long passed, but the palace was still bustling with activity.

After Shang Wenqi was summoned into the palace, he went straight to the main hall. On the magnificent palace sat a six-year-old little emperor in a yellow robe. Next to him was a screen, through which a figure could be vaguely seen. It was the current empress dowager.

In the hall, the two prime ministers on the left and right, as well as the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Rites were standing, and there was a group of people kneeling. They were Li Wuqin, the Langzhong of the Qing History Department of the Ministry of Justice, and his subordinates who had visited the Imperial Guard today.

Shang Wenqi knew what had happened when he saw this scene, and he calmly slowed down his pace.

Everyone in the hall saw that Shang Wenqi had a look of secrecy on his face.

Shang Wenqi quickly came to the main hall and knelt down to salute the people in the Golden Palace.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"Captain, do you know why I summoned you to the palace?"

"Although I don't know the specific details, I believe it has something to do with Doctor Li from the Qing History Department of the Ministry of Justice." Shang Wenqi answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Ah Qi, don't be rude." A female voice slowly sounded from behind the screen: "Doctor Li said that you secretly detained Zhou Jintao, the head of the Ministry of Personnel's Finance Department. Is this true?"

"Yes, but I am not detaining you, I am protecting you."

"What's going on?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Queen Mother, I was patrolling the city as usual yesterday and found many men in black around Lord Zhou's residence. I immediately executed them on the spot. Then, considering that the head of the Gold Department had a personal relationship with Ning Zhongyi, who committed suicide out of fear of punishment for embezzling gold not long ago, I thought that perhaps the men in black today might be related to the 100,000 taels of gold. In order to prevent the situation from getting worse, I first protected Lord Zhou's family.

That is all the facts.”

"Nonsense, the theft of 100,000 taels of gold has already been settled, so how can there be any follow-up?" The Right Prime Minister couldn't help but frowned: "The court is already in turmoil, the captain should not cause any more trouble."

"Well, you can't say that. Although Ning Zhongyi has committed suicide out of fear of punishment, the 100,000 taels of gold are still missing. These men in black might really be related to this matter.

In other words, although the head of the Jin Department was removed from office before, since he provoked the black-clad men for no reason, it might be because of the 100,000 taels of gold. I think that Lord Jin should be put on trial. "

The left and right sides have always been checking and balancing each other, so it is normal for them to have different opinions at this time.

The little emperor couldn't help but look at the two ministers of the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Personnel.

The Minister of Justice said seriously: "What the Left Prime Minister said makes sense. Regardless of whether the man in black is related to the unsolved case of the 100,000 taels of gold, just the fact that he appeared around Lord Zhou's residence is worth investigating.

After all, it is simply lawless for the black-clad man to dare to assassinate an official of the imperial court in Kyoto. The Ministry of Justice must intervene, and it is reasonable to question Lord Zhou. However, Shang Duwei is unwilling to give it to him, which is simply unbelievable. "

"Minister of Personnel, what do you think?" The little emperor looked at the person who had been silent.

The Minister of Personnel, who was named, was sweating profusely. He didn't dare to say a word at this time. There was no other way. The Ministry of Finance was under the Ministry of Personnel. To put it bluntly, he was Zhou Jintao's direct superior. What could he think? Even if he had an opinion in his heart, he didn't dare to say it.

What if I’m accused of covering up a crime?
