Kaifeng Mansion's Little Boss

Bai Yutang tilted his head slightly, and stared at Su Yuan more solemnly.

"You are working in Kaifeng Mansion, what are you thinking about?"

Su Yuan pointed to Jin Decai: "He's still working in the household department. Not only did he think about it, but he also did it. I don't mind thinking about it."

Jin Decai, who was originally limp on the ground, frustrated and anxious, became dazed for a moment after hearing Su Yuan's words, and looked up at Su Yuan.

When he was caught committing the crime, he felt panic, embarrassment and humiliation.But after listening to Su Yuan's words, he felt that although his crime was heinous and shameful, it was also human.As long as a person is unavoidably greedy like him, just look at the female officer who arrested him, isn't she also greedy for these gold bricks?

Seeing Jin Decai looking up at Su Yuan, Bai Yutang had an inexplicable feeling that he had found a like-minded friend, kicked him back to the ground, and ordered the yamen servants to tie him up.

Su Yuan analyzed: "The biggest problem is that the 1 taels of gold is too heavy, and the inspection by the money supervisor is very strict. It is as difficult to move a gold mountain out of the money prison, so the method of transporting gold out must be Cover up."

"Yes, yes, yes." Jin Decai hurriedly agreed. When he was thinking about this issue, he had a hard time for a long time.

But 1 taels of gold, who doesn't love it?It is golden and shiny, making people happy when they look at it, and they are so happy that they can't close their mouths from ear to ear.

"Actually, your idea of ​​lucking gold is not bad, it's enough to deceive people, but it's just too troublesome.

Firstly, remelting the gold from the greedy ink and injecting it into bricks not only takes time and effort, but also requires a lot of tools.Naturally, there are plenty of tools in the Money Foundry to help you remelt gold nuggets, but there are too many people and it is easy to be discovered.

So you deliberately exaggerated the rumors of ghosts, and even pretended to be ghosts to scare a few craftsmen, so that all the craftsmen did not dare to work at night because they were afraid of ghosts.In this way, it is convenient for you to borrow the tools from the coin minter at night, and quietly remelt the gold and hide it in the bricks. "

Jin Decai nodded in agreement, Su Yuan's speculations were very accurate, he did exactly what he did.

Due to limited manpower, only he and Wang Shuisheng worked quietly for half a year before they managed to hide the gold brick.Then, on the pretext that the brick mud of the hearth was loose, these bricks were built into the inside of the hearth.

With so much gold hidden there, Jin Decai was actually not at ease, for fear of being discovered.So he has always maintained the rumors of being haunted, making the craftsmen avoid the copper water furnace.

"Since you are an accomplice, why do you still want to kill Wang Shuisheng?" Su Yuan asked.

"Who would think that there is too much money? And the more insiders, the more danger."

Speaking of Wang Shuisheng, Jin Decai, who is the murderer, was actually a little angry.

The cause of the conflict between the two was precisely the Chugudao Tibetan Bank case that happened before Qian Jian.

Seeing that someone in the Qianjian successfully transported the money out by relying on the valley road, Wang Shuisheng couldn't rest assured, and talked to Jin Decai all day long, since people can use this method to transport the money out, why can't they.

Because Wang Shuisheng is in charge, he does not participate in making money, so he will not be investigated like those workers.

He just nagged that he wanted Jin Decai to remelt the gold bricks to make them smaller, and asked him to take a few pieces out first. He was fed up with the crowded and noisy days in the poor house.

"He begged me to let him go out with a finger of gold first. But how can things be so simple? Just look at his petty appearance. Once he takes the gold out, makes a fuss about it, and makes a mistake, the rest I don’t even think about transporting the whole mountain of gold.”

At that time, the top and bottom of the household department didn't know that the Qianjian had thrown gold, and no one thought about gold.Jin Decai was afraid that Wang Shuisheng's fuss would spoil his good deeds, so he was upset and anxious to kill him.

"Because I sympathized with his second brother when he fell into the well, I promoted him to be a steward. Since then, he has been very grateful to me, nodding and bowing to me all day long, and letting me order. It happened that the household department entered the 20 taels of gold to let people I was tempted, so I was willing to choose him as an accomplice to do this together.

But it never occurred to him that he was impatient.It's all his fault that he sees Qianqian openly and disregards the overall situation, so I can't blame me for being cruel. "

Although Jin Decai loves money very much and is greedy, he knows very well that the money supervisor requires a word of "stableness" in order to spend the money.The reason why he only chose Wang Shuisheng to help him at the beginning, and did not add any more people, was to be cautious and make no mistakes.

He couldn't tolerate others messing with his steps.

On the matter of killing Wang Shuisheng, Jin Decai thought for a while, and then thought of a good way to take the opportunity to strengthen the haunted rumors.

"I originally wanted to wait for a few more days, and when the furnace was inspected and repaired every three years in Zhuqian Dongsuo, the bricks of the hearth would be replaced as a matter of course, but it would take another half a year.

If Wang Shuisheng were to fall into the furnace and die like his second brother, it would definitely cause panic, and everyone would think that the furnace was haunted.When the craftsmen are unwilling to use this stove to work, I can justifiably dismantle the stove and rebuild it. "

In order not to expose his suspicion, Jin Decai never showed any intention of dismantling the stove, but only showed his eagerness to complete the task of minting money from the Ministry of Household Affairs.He even went to the Palace of Eight Sages on purpose to ask Taoist Master Wang Chuan to help with the practice.

He originally thought that when the brewing time came, someone would naturally propose to him to dismantle the stove. At that time, he would have to make a decision and just agree to dismantle the stove.But he never expected that Bao Zheng brought forward the accounts of Qian Jian from the household investigation department, and directly found out that Qian Jian had lost 1 taels of gold.

Jin De didn't dare to do anything wrong, so he acted like a coward and pretended to cooperate with the investigation.He even rejoiced that he had silenced Wang Shuisheng early, and he was the only one who knew about it.Not to mention that gold bricks are difficult to find, even if they are found, as long as he denies them, there will be no evidence to link him.

During Kaifeng Mansion’s thorough investigation by Qian Jian, Jin Decai has been secretly observing the actions of the Kaifeng government officials. As long as there is a sign that he realizes that the people in Kaifeng Mansion have found out where the gold bricks are, he will definitely shrink his neck and not show his head. When it came to him, he also made up his mind to kill him and deny it.

Because he is an official himself, he is very clear about the regulations of the yamen's investigation, especially for officials like him, it is impossible to frame him without a certificate.As long as they have insufficient evidence, there is no way to convict him.Anyway, if the money is gone, he will grit his teeth and work hard to save his life.

Jin Decai thought that the situation was better than he expected, and the Kaifeng mansion searched east and west in the end but still had no clue, and failed to find the location of the gold brick.

He also heard that Bao Zheng, such a resolute and proud person, should apologize to the emperor, admitting that he had failed in the investigation of this case.

Afterwards, rumors began to circulate in the capital that the money prison was haunted by ghosts, and the five ghosts were lucky.Although Jin Decai was demoted due to poor supervision, fortunately he is still in Qianjian.

Jin De wanted to wait until the limelight had passed. Everyone mistakenly thought that when the 1 taels of gold had already been shipped out of the Qianjian, it was a good time for him to ship out the gold bricks.

The newly appointed supervisor of money is named Feng Bo, and it is inevitable that he will have "three fires for a new official". The first thing he worries about after he takes office is that he cannot complete the task of casting money.

At this time, there was no need for Jin Decai to say more, and naturally someone mentioned the root of the problem to the copper water stove.

Jin Decai only needs to chime in and chime in a few times, and when Feng Bo asks him a question, he can guide Feng Bo a little bit so that Feng Bo realizes that the copper water stove can't be kept anymore, and he can get things done.

Although Jin Decai was demoted, he was still in charge of Qianjian after all, and could take care of some chores.

He was responsible for the dirty work of dismantling the stove, and no one would object to it. The other masters and stewards were eager to have to touch that bad place.And the reason why Jin Decai, who has always been cautious, dared to take the initiative at this time.In addition to being at the most critical last step, there is another reason. He is afraid that someone will break the bricks when the stove is dismantled, exposing the gold.

So he deliberately chose noon to dismantle the stove, and repeatedly asked the rough envoys who dismantled the stove to be careful, make less noise, and not disturb the new chief executive's lunch break.

And at noon in summer, the sun is big, and people are most scorched by the sun. It is easy to get dizzy in hot weather, and the guards who are in charge of inspections outside are not in the mood to look closely at what's wrong with the bricks.

After such careful calculations, the gold bricks were finally transported out smoothly. Jin Decai thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, and roll happily on the couch at night, happy that he had obtained dozens of lifetimes that would never be spent. of silver.

However, this kind of joy had just been ignited, and before it was fully ignited, it was completely extinguished by the sudden appearance of Su Yuan and others, and it made my heart feel cold.

Jin De didn't understand how he had spent nearly a year and a half planning with all his strength and avoided all mistakes as much as possible. How could he still be discovered thoroughly and caught right?

The previous cautiousness and complacency have all become jokes.

"From the very beginning, it was confirmed that Wang Shuisheng's death was caused by human beings, not a mistake or haunting. The Kaifeng government did not intend to let the Qian prison go. The murderer's method of killing is obviously planned for a long time, and it is very likely that it has something to do with money." Bai Yu Tang said coldly.

When Jin Decai heard that he had ruled out the mistake, he hurriedly asked the reason. He knew what the foreman said when he inspected Wang Shuisheng's body at the time.Wu Zuo only said that Wang Shuisheng was so alive that he fell into the stove and died.

"You yourself learned acupuncture from Chang Lin, and you forgot that needle?" Su Yuan asked back.

Jin Decai was amazed, "How could you detect such a small needle hole? But when I checked it, he didn't notice it."

"Even if you are an official and understand the law, you haven't done anything in Kaifeng Mansion, and you still don't understand the specific regulations of Kaifeng Mansion's investigation. In addition to the initial autopsy, a second re-examination is required when you go back. This is the rule. Every corpse is like this." Su Yuan explained.

Jin Decai suddenly realized, "It turns out that my fault actually came from that inconspicuous eye of a needle."

"But it's more than that. Your criminal behavior itself is a flaw. For example, the ghosts that always appear frequently near the stove, so that the Wang brothers happened to die in the stove. In fact, these are reminding us that things cannot be separated from that stove. "

"But you seem to be quite lucky, there is a starling to help you." Su Yuan suddenly remembered the starling who kept repeating 'I died so badly'. Although she guessed that it was unlikely to be raised by Jin Decai, she Just ask Kinder for confirmation.

Jin Decai shook his head and denied it, "I was taken aback when it first appeared. Later, I found out that it was a mynah, and I didn't tell anyone else, just to make the rumor even scarier."

What should be said is the truth, Su Yuan has no objection to this.

Jin Decai's greed for money began a year and a half ago, while Starling appeared two years ago, shortly after Wang Shuigen's death.

It was a coincidence, but I don't know who the owner of this starling is, and taught it to learn such a sentence.

After the yamen servants counted the gold bricks and confirmed that there were two gold bricks, Su Yuan and Bai Yutang escorted Jin De before returning to Kaifeng Mansion.

Bai Yutang didn't know why he was so confused at the time, but he agreed to Su Yuan's bad intentions, followed Su Yuan's wishes, and ordered the yamen servants to take a cart full of golden gold to Kaifeng mansion without any cover.It is reasonable to say that the wealth should not be exposed, and should be boxed, or covered with cloth or straw mats and the like.

But no!

This road really attracted everyone's attention, and attracted many people to watch and discuss.

In order to avoid accidents, Bai Yutang followed the car.

But he never expected that because of his outstanding appearance, he became famous together with a load of gold, so a jingle became popular in Beijing: "If you ask whose family Bai Yulang this is, Wanliang Jinshan Baiyutang."

Later, in the Jianghu world, besides the name Chinchilla, he also had another nickname, which was 'Wanliang Jinshan'.

Because Su Yuan made it clear from the beginning that she wanted to be greedy for money, Jin Decai felt that he and Su Yuan could chat.

On the way to Kaifeng Mansion, although he was scolded all the way, he saw that the common people saw a cart of gold, and they were as blind to money as he was. He felt that his crimes could be understood more and more because people Everyone loves money.

When they arrived at Kaifeng Mansion, Su Yuan took Jin Decai to wait in the courtyard.On the other side, Bai Yutang went to report to Bao Zheng, and waited for Mr. Bao to be ready before starting the interrogation.

At this moment, Jin Decai asked Su Yuan: "If Ms. Su really came to handle this case, would she really think of a perfect way to get out? From Ms. Su's tone before, it seems that she doesn't agree with me taking time to remelt gold? "

"I don't quite agree. It's too troublesome for you to remelt the gold piece by piece into the hollow bricks, and it took so long to ship it out. In fact, if the Kaifeng government hadn't investigated you because of the hidden silver case in the valley road, you wouldn't have done this at all. Someone is paying attention. You are too cautious, but instead delay the time and miss the best opportunity."

"How is this possible? I am cautious, just to patiently wait for the safest time to transport the gold out."

He waited for the Ministry of Households to re-inspect the repaired stove once every three years. At that time, the stove must be scraped and the copper water furnace completely removed for inspection. The bricks built in the stove would naturally be transported without anyone noticing. out.

Su Yuan chuckled, and questioned Jin Decai: "Is it true that Qian Jian no longer has anything to ship out every day except people?"

Jin De was stunned for a moment, "Of course."

Su Yuan ridiculed Jin Decai: "You officials are so limited in thinking? Some people need a place to eat and drink. Your Qianjian's kitchen doesn't pour slop, and the latrine doesn't dig out excrement?"

Jin Decai stared blankly as if struck by lightning, he didn't expect Su Yuan to think of such an unclean thing.

"Even if you remelt gold, then I will remelt it into a carriage for transporting slops and a stinky barrel for holding dung water. As long as you cover it up properly, it will save a lot of time than your method of gold bricks."

Jin Decai's eyes widened even more. Even though he thought this method was dirty, he had to admit that this method was indeed faster.If he had used this method to transport gold early, he would have been sitting on tens of thousands of taels of gold at this moment, just waiting for the popular ones to drink spicy ones.

Su Yuan immediately said that this kind of remelting is too troublesome.Especially to make carts or carriages, but also to make molds and then assemble them.

Jin De thought for a while, then nodded, thinking it was a little troublesome.But he knows how to make molds, so he can do it.At that time, as long as you win over a rough envoy who digs out the dung, you can get things done.

He is so stupid!The more I think about it, the more I regret it!

Jin Decai came to his senses immediately, and asked Su Yuan, "Could it be that Miss Su still has a way to transport the gold out without remelting it?"

Su Yuan nodded, "Your money supervisor will transport minted money to the treasury of the household department every day, and also transport new copper into it. In short, there are quite a lot of horses used every day. If you don't melt gold, break the gold into pieces , put it in the horse manure, won't it go out after sweeping it?"

Jin Decai looked at Su Yuan in shock, why does this girl like to have trouble with these filthy things?

"You may not know that a horse has at least 45 to [-] catties of manure a day, and at least [-] catties of manure a year. There are probably dozens of horses in your Qianjian. How many times are you counting? I don't need to go into details. Five horse dung eggs hide a gold or two, how long do you think it will end?"

Jin Decai suddenly felt enlightened, and he widened his eyes to the maximum.Yes, this is not only extremely fast, but also saves the trouble of melting gold!As long as he takes advantage of his position, he can win over the boy who lives in the stable to clean up the excrement, or he can simply arrange Wang Shuisheng there.

"Have you heard them all? Write them down one by one and tell Qian Jian that they made more than one mistake."

Gongsun Ce appeared behind Su Yuan at some point, and he suddenly spoke politely, ordering the clerk beside him.

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang accompanied Gongsun Ce, and at this moment, they both looked at Su Yuan together.

Zhan Zhao was fine, he pursed his lips and suppressed a smile.

Bai Yutang took a deep look at Su Yuan, his eyes were complicated, and he didn't know how to describe it.

Jin Decai was immediately taken away to prepare for the trial. When he left, he still looked shocked, and looked at Su Yuan reluctantly, maintaining an unbelievable expression.

Su Yuan immediately explained to Gongsun Ce with a smile: "Master, I am from the perspective of a prisoner, analyzing all possible mistakes, so as to help Qian Jian take precautions and avoid similar corruption cases from happening again."

Gongsun Ce smiled politely and praised Su Yuan: "It's great that you have such an idea. It is true that you have made up for the lack of inspection for the money supervisor. I will tell Mr. Bao later to ask for more credit for you and give you more rewards."

"Okay." Su Yuan agreed without blushing.

After Gongsun Ce left, Zhan Zhao couldn't bear it anymore, patted his thigh, and laughed.

"I mean Sister Su, how did you think—" Zhan Zhao paused, "Jian Qian's horse dung?"

"Evil always breeds in the dirtiest place!" Su Yuan replied sonorously, which made Zhan Zhao laugh again.

"It's great now. The horse manure sweeper in Qianjian has another job, which is to crush the horse manure one by one before throwing them out."

"The excrement collectors and the swill deliverers can't escape either," Bai Yutang added.

When Zhan Zhao left, Su Yuan noticed the way Bai Yutang looked at her before, so he deliberately asked Bai Yutang, "Do you regret it?"

The cleanliness-obsessed Mr. Bai Wu found that the woman he liked was really dirty, and it was normal for him to feel remorse.

"No, I just feel—" Bai Yutang chuckled and said carefully, "You have a big picture, and you think about things that others can't think of."

"This probably has something to do with a person's experience growing up. Jin Decai was born in an official family, and he didn't see dirt when he was a child, so he couldn't think of it. When I was young, I raised horses and cleaned the stables of Kaifeng Mansion, so I would think of it naturally. When I was a helper in the kitchen, pouring slop was an indispensable job.”

After Bai Yutang heard this, he frowned and stared at Su Yuan for a moment, "You suffered when you were young, but you won't have it in the future."

"Do you have meat to eat with Fifth Master?" Su Yuan asked half-jokingly.

"Isn't this what it should be?" Bai Yutang's rhetorical question was full of confidence, and he immediately asked Su Yuan whether to go to the court trial.

Su Yuan shook her head, she woke up too early in the morning.

"You can't skip a nap."

"The case is closed today. Why don't you go out to eat tonight so that you don't have to?" Bai Yutang wanted to arrange dinner while Su Yuan was taking a nap.As I said just now, he didn't want Su Yuan to suffer, so it would be hard work for her to cook.

"No need, I'll eat something simple today. I sent Sun He to the market early in the morning to buy pork bones."

Su Yuan immediately understood Bai Yutang's intention and smiled sweetly at him.

"Cooking, if you do it because you want to eat, it's fun and joyful. But if you do it as a task, it's hard work. I cook only when I'm interested, so it's fun, you don't have to Worrying that I will work hard because of this."

"Also, why do I remember that someone wanted to stay in Kaifeng Mansion just because he was greedy for my cooking skills?" Su Yuan asked Bai Yutang intentionally and amusingly.

The skin behind Bai Yutang's ears gradually turned pink, but his face still pretended to be indifferent, "It was different then."

"It's 'different then' again, I'm curious about 'what was it like now'?" Su Yuan teased Bai Yutang again.

The pink behind Bai Yutang's ears tended to spread to his cheeks.

He urged: "Go to sleep."

Then he turned around and strode towards the courtroom.

Su Yuan couldn't help laughing, knowing that Bai Yutang was so shy that he ran away!

above the court.

After Bao Zheng slapped the gavel, Jin Decai confessed to the crime he had committed.

However, during the confession period, Jin Deccai always found reasons for himself to quibble from time to time, thinking that his greed for money is human nature.Others are not greedy for money because they have not become the chief supervisor of money like him, otherwise no one would be able to withstand the temptation.

"Presumptuous! As an official of the government office, you guard yourself and steal, knowingly breaking the law. Now in the court, you plead guilty, but you don't know how to repent, and you have the audacity to justify your crimes! Come, first, fifty rods, and then go Interrogation!"

Bao Zheng scolded angrily, and threw down the order sign.

When Jin Decai heard that he was going to be beaten, he panicked all of a sudden.

"This is not sophistry, it's the truth. I'm just telling the truth what many people think! You have officials in Kaifeng Mansion just like me. She just has no choice but to steal money from the household department. If she had been in Qianjian, the 1 taels of gold would have been shipped out by her without anyone noticing, and no one would be able to find out!"

The courtroom fell into silence for an instant.

People who don't know are wondering, which official in the mansion dares to speak the 'truth' so blatantly.

Zhan Zhao couldn't help it, he pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed, but it was just a silent laugh, he didn't dare to make a sound.

Bai Yutang turned his head to look elsewhere, so no one could see his expression.

When Bao Zheng heard this, he wanted to question Jin Decai angrily, but when he noticed the smile on Zhan Zhao's face, he had some expectations.

Bao Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Gongsun Ce.

Gongsun Ce coughed lightly, leaned into Bao Zheng's ear, and explained Su Yuan's behavior in a low voice, "She is deliberately standing in the position of a prisoner to broaden the way of solving the case, and by the way, she also mentioned the two existing prisons in the Qian prison." Flaw."

Bao Zheng glanced at Jin Decai, who was kneeling in the hall, and still somewhat righteous.

"I think she has another purpose."

Gongsun Ce was about to ask Bao Zheng what his purpose was, so he heard Bao Zheng slap the gavel and then throw the lottery, increasing the punishment to one hundred strokes.He reprimanded Jin Decai for being unrepentant several times, and wantonly framed officials in Kaifeng.

Jin Decai was stunned for a moment, and refused to accept it. When he was about to defend himself again, his mouth was immediately blocked by Wang Chao and others.The person was pushed down on a wooden bench and was beaten.

Jin Decai was beaten so badly that his whole body was drenched in cold sweat, and he vaguely heard a yamen servant beside him whispering praises of 'Miss Su is really amazing'.

Jin De reluctantly raised his head to look at Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce who were above them, they were looking at each other indifferently, drinking tea leisurely.

Only now did Jin Decai realize that he had been tricked by Su Yuan!

From the very beginning, Su Yuan spoke from his standpoint just to set him up and let him confess everything smoothly.The ways she said to get money made him fall into a lot of remorse, the kind that the more he thought about it, the more he regretted it, the more he wanted to torture himself.

I hate myself for not thinking of a similar good method earlier, and I can escape the guilt by transporting the gold out earlier, I hate myself for being stupid...

In addition, Su Yuan's words made Jin Decai think that his behavior was not so evil, it was "human nature", so he admitted his mistake and his attitude was not correct when he was interrogated just now.In this way, as an official who knew the law and violated the law, he added another crime of ignorance and was beaten in court.

Jin Decai has always thought that he is a cautious and considerate person, but now he never thought that he would be tricked by a little girl this time.

After he was beaten and finished the follow-up trial honestly, Jin De heard another sigh from Bao Zheng.

"Fortunately, Su Yatou reminded me to thoroughly investigate Qian Jian's accounts..."

Jin Decai was stunned again, and then buzzed like flies.So he didn't only fall down in front of the little girl surnamed Su once, but the only two times in his life when he fell down because of her!

Jin Decai was finally tried, and when he was dragged to the top of the dog's head, he heard the people watching outside the hall applaud loudly, shouting that he should be killed as a beast who embezzled the state treasury.

Only then did Jin De realize how heinous the crime he had committed was.

He also heard that Bao Zheng made a special statement before his death that not everyone is as greedy and evil as he is, disregarding human life.Before him, there were a total of 38 officials in Qianjian's office, but none of them made mistakes during their tenure.

"Do you understand what our Lord Bao said?"

Zhao Hu pulled up the guillotine and spoke to Jin Decai, who was in tears and looked dazed.

"The one who commits crimes and deserves to die is only you. Don't think it's human nature anymore. Don't be so stupid that when you go to the Palace of the King of Hades after you die, you don't know how to repent, and you are sentenced to the sword mountain."

Jin Decai burst into tears, saying that he knew he was wrong.

Wrong, but too late.

Murder for wealth and embezzlement of gold from the treasury of tens of thousands of countries is the only way to die.

Life is not a mistake, after making a mistake, there is a chance to correct it.

People can be human only if they have something to do.

If you have no scruples and act recklessly, you can only be the ghost of the Kaifeng mansion.

……

When Su Yuan woke up, he smelled a smell of meat.

Sun He deliberately sat on the stone steps at the door, eating melon seeds while waiting for Su Yuan.

As soon as she saw Su Yuan push the door open, she hurriedly told her: "I followed the boss's instructions, put all the bones and sticks into the pot, and added the boss's package of pre-prepared cooking meat."

Su Yuan asked Sun He if he had picked any reeds.

"I picked the thickest and strongest poles according to the boss's instructions."

Su Yuan went to the kitchen to take a look at the stewed bones in the pot, then cleaned up the reeds and cut them into half-foot lengths.

In addition, use shepherd's purse, bean sprouts, crab meat and lettuce tips to make refreshing mixed vegetables or fresh stir-fried vegetables.

After the sauced bones are cooked, these dishes are served with sesame seed buns, and a table of sauced bones feast is assembled.

For dessert, almond tofu is prepared, which is prepared in advance and chilled in ice. Whoever wants to eat can go and serve a bowl.

"It's so fragrant, you can smell it from afar."

Wang Chao, Ma Han and others came after smelling the fragrance, joined in the fun and asked Su Yuan what to eat tonight, and if they asked clearly, they would save them from drooling and guessing.

"By the way, you were not there during the trial just now. Then Jin Decai had the audacity to try to identify you! Master Bao ordered a [-]-stick beating." Wang Chao said.

Ma Han and Zhao Hu hurriedly stated that they beat them with their own hands and showed no mercy.Who told him to dare to wrong their Kaifeng Mansion's most powerful general!

"In this case, Ms. Su helped the household department successfully recover 1 taels of gold, and she will definitely be rewarded by Your Majesty." Ma Han said.

"Although there are female servants in our Kaifeng Mansion, they all do odd jobs to examine female victims. No one has ever had a grade. But I don't know if His Majesty can make an exception for Miss Su and make Miss Su an official?" Wang Chao sighed road.

"This reminds me." Su Yuan laughed and didn't say much, Zhang Luo and the others could call someone over and set the table for dinner.

Each person has an empty bowl, put half of the stick bone upright, insert a reed pole into it, and suck the bone marrow in the stick bone with a sip.

"It turns out that this reed pole has such a magical effect!"

Everyone thought it was fresh, and the process of only sucking bone marrow created a lot of fun.

After sucking up the bone marrow, he just gnawed on the bones and ate the meat.As far as this pig is concerned, no meat is as fragrant as the meat on the bones. The sauced bones with an attractive red color are rotten and tender, and some have tendons on them, but the tendons have been boiled until soft It's waxy and tastes great.

Because the sauce bone is simply boiled with sauce and water without oil, and part of the oil of the meat itself will be boiled out during the cooking process, the meat is tender and not greasy. Once the bone is chewed, it will be endless. .In addition, there are many refreshing side dishes to eat together. The sweet and sour mixed vegetables can also appetize, and people can't help but eat more.

In the end, I ate two mouthfuls of ice-cold almond tofu with full of apricot flavor, like riding the wind and waves to the peak.

"Because of Ms. Su's skills, I wish I could solve a big case every day!" Zhang Long patted his stomach, obviously full, but he still couldn't finish it.

Ma Han stood up solemnly, attracting Zhao Chao, Ma Han and Zhang Long to look at him.

"Brother, you speak my heart!"

Wang Chao and Zhang Long both laughed and hurriedly agreed that this was also their heartfelt voice.

Bai Yutang was eating almond tofu, he put down the bowl in his hand after hearing the words, and stared at them with clear eyes.

Wang Chao and the others gradually stopped laughing.

Wang Chao boldly asked, "Will Fifth Master Bai want to help serve tofu?"

"It's up to her to do it or not, don't make fun of anyone." After Bai Yutang finished speaking, he lowered his eyes and continued to eat almond tofu.

Wang Chao and others glanced at each other before realizing that Fifth Master Bai was concerned about Miss Su, fearing that she would be tired from cooking.

Thinking about the joke they made just now, it was indeed that they only cared about satisfying their own appetites, and forgot whether Su Yuan was tired or not.

Several people quickly echoed Bai Yutang's words, saying that everything should be based on Su Yuan's wishes.

After eating, it was men who picked up the table and cleaned the dishes.

Su Yuan took the opportunity to tell Bao Zheng at this time that there is no need to ask for credit for her. She doesn't want to be appointed as an official, and she just needs to be a low-level official in Kaifeng Mansion.

"If His Majesty intends to appoint you an official this time, I am afraid that the government will not be able to refuse."

The emperor knew that the audit of accounts by the household department came from Su Yuan's judgment. Now that he really wanted to reward her for his merits, he would definitely not ignore her.Bao Zheng absolutely had no reason to accept credit for Su Yuan. If the emperor asked him, he could only tell the truth.

Su Yuan: "There is no precedent for a woman to be an official outside the palace in this dynasty. It should not be so easy."

"It has never happened before, because there has never been a woman like you who is good at investigating cases and making meritorious deeds. In the previous dynasty, there were women who were officials in the court and made achievements, and even those who wore war robes and went to battle to make meritorious deeds were praised and respected by the world. .Why is it not possible in this court? I don’t think it’s so difficult.” Gongsun Ce had a different idea.

When Su Yuan heard this, she became a little worried. She didn't want to live a high-profile life.Being a small official in Kaifeng Mansion is not too eye-catching.If she becomes the No.1 female official in the Song Dynasty who is an official outside the palace, everyone in the world will probably know her name.She doesn't like to be known by everyone wherever she goes, and no matter what she does, she will attract people's attention.

This is too much limelight.

Su Yuan began to consider the possibility of quitting his job and leaving Kaifeng Mansion.

Anyway, now that she has money, she can live comfortably no matter where she goes.

On the way back to his room, Su Yuan saw Bai Yutang waiting for him, and then remembered that he still had a family member.

She rushed to Bai Yutang and asked, "Are you going to elope with me?"

Bai Yutang immediately refused: "If you want to marry me, I will be hired by three matchmakers tomorrow, so don't even think about elopement."

"I mean wandering around the world, how about the two of us leaving Kaifeng mansion now?"

After Su Yuan said this, he suddenly felt a little irresponsible.If she just left like this, Bao Zheng and the others would definitely feel relieved, and she would probably feel guilty and miss them.

Time is really a potion, and it will soon corrode her, a lonely person, to the point where she is almost unaccustomed to loneliness.

Bai Yutang noticed Su Yuan's abnormality, and told her not to worry, but to explain the reason slowly first.

After learning that Su Yuan had the idea of ​​running away because he didn't want to be an official, Bai Yutang said to Su Yuan, "No matter where you go, there are people who know you and pay special attention to you... These are actually your overthinking. Knowing your name, but not your appearance, as long as you don't register your number, no matter where you go, it will be the same as before. On the contrary, if you have a reputation, a nomination number will save you a lot of trouble."

When Su Yuan thought about it, it was true. She seemed a little nervous?I'm always afraid that too many people will pay too much attention to her, which will not help her hide.What did she really need to hide?The world isn't that scary at all.

This seems to be the sequelae brought to her by the doomsday game, and she only realized it now.

"It's a shining pearl, why do you want to cover up your own light?"

Bai Yutang looked at Su Yuan tenderly, and put his hand on her forehead.

"Of course, if you really want to leave Kaifeng mansion because of this, I will accompany you."
