Soon there were only two people left in the room.
The smile on Zi Nu's face gradually disappeared, and she looked at Cao Chao calmly.
"I don't know what is the purpose of the guest coming to Zilanxuan?"
"Didn't I just say, let the proprietress dance for me for the rest of my life?"
Cao Chao spread his hands and said confidently,
"Madam Boss, don't you want to go back on your word?"
"..."
Seeing that the other party was always struggling with this point, even though Zi Nu was eloquent and quick-witted, she was a little at a loss at the moment.
The two sides made a bet, so many people watched at that time, even if they wanted to renege on their debts, it was impossible.
Just when the atmosphere fell into silence, Cao Chao spoke again.
"The proprietress is naturally beautiful and has the wealth of the country and the city, but she deliberately puts such a thick foundation on her face every day, isn't she tired?"
"..."
Zi Nu pursed her lips tightly and said nothing, as if unwilling to answer the man's question.
However, the gloomy flash in the purple beautiful eyes has already betrayed her heart.
Women love beauty by nature, and the more beautiful a woman is, the more she pays attention to her appearance.
However, for Zi Lanxuan, for that purpose, Zi Nu could only carefully cover up her beauty.
Seeing that the other party started to waver, Cao Chao had a vague smile on his lips.
To change a woman's mind is a hard work, and he never thought about it once.
Too late, Cao Chao immediately changed the topic.
"Since the proprietress still needs time to think about whether to fulfill our agreement, I will take my leave first.
"I'll come to visit again tomorrow, and I hope the proprietress can give me a satisfactory answer then."
After saying that, he got up straight away, said goodbye and left.
……
At the same time, in the Han Palace,
"My lord, it's not good, the military pay to Nanyang County has been robbed!"
"what!"
Hearing that the military salary was robbed, Han Wangan couldn't sit still.
"Who exactly robbed the military salary?"
"Ghost, ghost soldier!"
"what?!!
"Come here, quickly call a group of ministers into the palace to discuss matters!"
Chapter 620
With a slight tilt, more than ten ministers were already standing in the hall.
Everyone looked serious and sat upright.
As important ministers in the court, they knew the King of Han very well.
Although there is no big mistake, it is definitely not a diligent monarch.
It was obvious that something serious had happened to summon them in the middle of the night.
"The king is here!"
A high-pitched voice came, and Han Wangan walked in from the apse surrounded by a group of guards and servants.
As soon as he sat down, he said,
"The widow has just received the news that the military pay that Anping Jun and Longquan Jun are responsible for escorting has been robbed."
"what???"
Hearing that the military salary was robbed, the officials were shocked.
That was the one-year military salary of the Nanyang army, a full 10 taels of gold, and it was robbed by someone.
This is a big case that goes through the sky.
No wonder King Han couldn't sit still, and came to discuss with them overnight.
Some important ministers came out and asked,
"I dare to ask the king, do you know who did it?"
"Ghost soldiers!"
Han Wangan said with a gloomy face,
"According to what the guards at the scene said, it was the ghost soldiers who stole all the military pay."
"???"
When everyone heard the words, they looked at each other in dismay.
What kind of ghost soldiers are they have never heard of.
"Okay, now is not the time to talk about that.
Han Wangan was obviously not in the mood to continue explaining.
Now it is almost imminent, South Korea is not rich, and there is not much money left in the national treasury.
Now that he lost 10 taels of gold all of a sudden, Han Wangan couldn't accept it at all.
What if it can't be done in a short time?
"What's wrong with Nangong?"
"My minister has seen the king
A middle-aged man stepped out of the line and bowed respectfully to Han Wang'an.
Han Wangan stared at the people under the steps, and said with a serious face,
"As the commander, you are in charge of the security of the capital and its vicinity.
"Now the widow will hand over this case to you for trial. The two kings are currently being imprisoned in the clan temple, so you can go and ask them.
"The widow has only one request, and that is, within five days, you must investigate the case to the bottom and bring back the widow's 10 taels of gold."
Seeing that the king had tapped him, Nangong Cuo felt pain in his heart.
This ghost soldier case involves two Uncle Wangs, how can it be so easy to try?
But since the king has tapped him, he has to pick it up, and he has to pick it up if he doesn't.
In desperation, he had no choice but to answer:
"The minister will live up to the king's entrustment."
……
Here Cao Chao had just returned to his residence when he met Han Yu's adopted son Han Qiancheng.
"Qiancheng has met the Taoist priest, and the righteous father asked the Taoist priest to come to the house to discuss important matters."
"Oh?"
Seeing that Han Yu even sent his adoptive son, Cao Chao immediately realized that the matter was extraordinary, so he nodded slightly.
"Let's lead the way"
"Yes!"
Soon Cao Chao came to the Prince's Mansion and met Han Yu.
"The fourth young master is looking for the poor Taoist late at night. I don't know what it is?"
"Sir, something big happened just now!"
Han Yu's face was extremely serious,
"The military pay transported by the imperial court to Nanyang has been robbed!"
"Oh?"
Cao Chao was shocked when he heard this.
He who has watched Tian Xing Jiu Ge certainly knows what is going on.
Unexpectedly, Ji Wuye would do it so quickly.
It seems that this product is short of money!
But this is just right, so the young master has room to manipulate.
After bowing his head and pondering for a while, Cao Chao said lightly,
"This matter is not simple, let Pindao figure it out."
Han Yu has seen the magic of the other party, so of course he will not stop him.
After a little leaning, after Cao Chao put on a show, he stopped the deduction.
Then he muttered to himself:
"The peaches are on the open well, and the plum trees are beside the peaches. When insects come to eat the roots of the peaches, the plum trees will take the place of the peaches. The trees will replace each other, and the brothers will forget each other."
Han Yu on the side didn't understand, so he had to ask.
"Did the Daoist figure out something?"
Nodding slightly, Cao Chao said solemnly,
"According to the hexagram, someone tampered with the military pay, and did the trick of Li Daitao stiff."
