The female general was reborn in the enemy's house? They all die!

Before he finished speaking, Lu Yue kicked off the lock on the wooden box.

The white silver was immediately revealed, and the official seal on each silver dollar was also clearly visible.

The silver light was extremely dazzling. Zhou Xu squinted his eyes, looked intently, and was stunned for a moment.

Although he worked in the Ministry of Revenue, he rarely saw so much silver with his own eyes.

He slowly moved closer to look in disbelief, and was frightened at the first sight.

That’s right, these silver dollars are the batch of disaster relief funds that should have been transported to Yuzhou County three years ago.

"Lord Zhou, why don't you distinguish the truth from the false, so that you won't accuse me of deceiving you." Rong Sheng stood aside calmly, looking at Zhou Xu's shocked expression and laughed secretly.

"Oh yeah..."

Zhou Xu finally came out of his surprise after hearing this, and he quickly placed one of the silver coins gently in his palm.

As his eyes flickered, he calmed down and turned over the things in his hands.

This delicate luster, heavy feel——

It should be correct, it is silver from the national treasury.

Rong Sheng observed Zhou Xu's expression, and when he saw his expression change slightly, he understood: "Master Zhou should have figured it out. This is the national treasury silver from that year."

"Yes, you really didn't lie to me." Zhou Xu replied sincerely, "But why are these treasury silvers in Yancui Pavilion?"

"Master Zhou, you don't know," Rong Sheng said, "This Yancui Pavilion was originally the property of Princess Qingya of the Rongguo Marquisate, but it was eventually snatched away by the Lu family. So Lu Anfei hid the silver here to conceal his whereabouts."

"Since it is the shop of the Rongguo Marquis's Mansion, what if Lu Anfei refuses to plead guilty?"

"Don't worry, Lord Zhou. This isn't the only place where Lu Anfei has embezzled the stolen money. He has private houses all over the capital, and they also contain treasury silver."

Rong Sheng said confidently, "I have already found out the exact location of the silver. Lord Zhou just needs to prepare the memorial according to my instructions and present it to His Majesty before tomorrow."

"Lü Anfei is the Crown Prince's man, and he is also related to the Marquis of Rongguo by marriage. Can this really bring him down?"

Rong Sheng blinked his eyes, sensing the retreat in Zhou Xu's words, and said in a deep voice: "I understand Mr. Zhou's concerns. Now that His Majesty has locked up His Royal Highness Prince Ming and General Wei, it seems that the Crown Prince and the Queen are indeed the most powerful."

"However, His Majesty hates deception and factionalism the most. Once he sees your memorial, he will definitely not let it go."

Rong Sheng spoke in a strong and powerful voice, his eyes sparkling with confidence: "The emperor will then summon you for questioning in public. At that time, the outcome will all depend on Lord Zhou."

Zhou Xu's thoughts turned over as he listened. He couldn't help but ask after hearing the last sentence, "Even if Lu Anfei is proven guilty in the end, it would only punish the Lu family, and I would offend the prince and the Xia family. In this way, wouldn't the Zhou family suffer as well?"

"No, Lord Zhou. I've already said that His Majesty dislikes the factional struggles among the princes, so in your memorial you must not only expose Lu Anfei, but also show that Du Sheng is not innocent either."

"General Du Sheng?" Zhou Xu was even more confused. "Is that the Du Sheng who was persecuted by General Wei for many years?"

"Du Sheng has been fighting with the Wei family for many years. Even the queen knows that the Wei family treats him well. If he bites back one day, the reason must be strange."

"So, it's just suspicion but no evidence."

"Don't worry about the evidence," Rong Sheng said confidently, "It can all be fabricated. Lord Zhou just needs to submit a report. When it's finally done, not only will your Zhou family be safe, but you will also be the Minister of Revenue."

"So, you want to rescue King Ming through this matter." Zhou Xu said bluntly. He was not stupid to begin with, and after listening to Rong Sheng's plan, he finally figured out his real purpose.

"Lord Zhou is wise. You thought of it without me telling you. Concubine Wei wants to rescue His Royal Highness Prince Ming and General Wei through this matter." Rong Sheng's eyes lit up and he said without hesitation, "When everything is settled, you will also be credited with a merit by Prince Ming."

"This way, we can kill three birds with one stone. Lord Zhou is a smart man and should know whether this deal is worthwhile."

"Well..." Zhou Xu thought for a while and finally gave in. "I'll do as you say. I'll prepare a memorial and submit it when I get back."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Zhou." Rong Sheng curled his lips slightly and bowed respectfully to Zhou Xu.

After a while, watching Zhou Xu walk away, Lu Yue finally couldn't help but move closer to Rong Sheng and whispered, "Princess, do you think he will go to ask for help again?"

"Oh, no," Rong Sheng smiled calmly, and said confidently, "No matter how reluctant he is, he has to help us to the end, because he still needs my antidote to survive."

"Princess, you are amazing," Lu Yue praised her, but then asked, "What about the evidence to convict Du Sheng?"

"That's easy," Rong Sheng blinked his clear almond eyes and said in a relaxed tone, "We will move the box of silver here to his house later."

"Is this really possible?"

"Why not? This is called giving someone a taste of their own medicine." Rong Sheng raised his eyebrows. "Du Sheng was ungrateful and hid the silver in General Wei's house to frame him. Isn't it fair for us to do this?"

Lu Yue scratched his head thoughtfully, with a very subtle expression.

He thought that the princess was really not someone who could be easily messed with, and he had to remind the prince that after marrying the princess in the future, he must be careful and never make the princess angry.

"Lu Yue, don't just stand there." Rong Sheng didn't know what Lu Yue was thinking. She walked back to the backyard while calling out, "Come and help me fill the hole. Two people can go faster."

"Okay, my lord, I'll be right there!"

After seeing Rong Sheng's various tricks, Lu Yue dared not delay any longer.

After an unknown amount of time, the backyard of Yancui Pavilion finally returned to its original appearance.

Lu Yue took off his outer clothes and covered the wooden box full of silver dollars with them: "Princess, are we moving now?"

Rong Sheng looked at the sun and shook his head, saying, "It's easy to be discovered if we act now. Let's do it in the middle of the night. Call me then."
