Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

"Nothing, just a minor injury, and it's been bandaged up."

Cao Kuan explained with a smile.

[Ah! ! I understand.] Xu Jinyu buried his head in the system and flipped through it.

[Cao Kuan and his men went to arrest the people who were illegally digging gold mines. Now the people who were digging gold mines and the garrison troops in Xizhou have been dealt with. Bai Wenyu, who had hidden tens of thousands of gold in his home, has been arrested.]

[Officials of all ranks in Xizhou were also arrested. The speed was so fast, as if there were Jinyiwei. ]

[The Imperial Guards are searching everywhere for the gold they dug out.]

[But why did Cao Kuan come to see me in such a hurry? ]

"Hey! Miss Xu!"

Cao Kuan quickly interrupted Xu Jinyu, saying that it would be bad if Xu Jinyu found out that they could hear their thoughts.

"The gold miners have been rescued. You have a girl who has been kidnapped. I want you to identify her."

"what!"

Xu Jinyu was confused. She couldn't remember what that lady looked like.

[That auntie is just an excuse! An excuse! Do you understand? ! ! ]

Xu Jinyu forced a smile of surprise on his face and praised: "He was rescued. You are really amazing."

Cao Kuan wanted to laugh when he heard the wailing in Miss Xu's heart. In fact, he came to see Miss Xu not because of any woman.

It was because there was a batch of gold worth tens of thousands of taels missing from the mine, and the manager who knew the location simply bit his tongue and committed suicide.

There was no way Cao Kuan could do anything but look to Miss Xu for the answer.

Liuyugou,

A group of people wearing only linen clothes huddled in a corner, shivering as they watched the soldiers in black armor clearing out the guards and supervisors in the mine.

The screams and pleas for mercy made the miners huddle even tighter.

They can't afford to offend the guards in the mine, and they can't afford to offend these soldiers even more.

"All the miners are here. See if you can find any of your relatives here."

Xu Jinyu looked blankly through his veil at the group of miners whose faces were dark and thin, with only bones left.

She really couldn't recognize any aunt.

"Don't worry if you really can't recognize her. These miners will be sent back to their hometowns. Then you will know which one is your great aunt."

Xu Jinyu nodded and gave up trying to recognize the person.

He followed Cao Kuan inside, looking through the system as he walked.

[Wow! This gold mine is so big, the total output is about 100 tons, 100 tons is 100 million taels, it's rich, the prince is rich this time! ]

"Plop!"

Cao Kuan fell face down on the ground.

Anyone near Cao Kuan who heard Xu Jinyu's inner voice fell to the ground with a thump.

At the same time, the guards who heard Xu Jinyu's thoughts looked around vigilantly, trying to find the person who was speaking.

Then the guards were held down by the guards from the Prince's Palace and told to continue listening.

Xu Jinyu raised his head blankly again.

[What's wrong? There's also group wrestling. ]

Cao Kuan got up from the ground with a grin on his face, looking at Xu Jinyu with an especially resentful look.

What kind of wrestling is this? This is just weak legs!

One million taels of gold reserves!

This will be Daqian’s largest gold mine to date.

Xu Jinyu lent a hand, helped Cao Kuan up, and continued to search the system.

[This gold mine has so far produced nearly 10 taels of gold. Bai Wenyu has 2 taels. Where is the rest? ]

[Oh! Bai Wenyu used 10,000 taels to bribe officials in the capital, so that he could continue to be the governor of Xizhou.]

[Ten thousand taels were used to control the officials of all ranks in Xizhou, and the rest was hidden in a secret place by Bai Wenyu.]

[If it weren't for this money, and he couldn't spend it openly, why would Bai Wenyu work so hard to dig it out? ]

【Huh! 】

You tell me where the hidden gold is!

Cao Kuan's face turned red and he almost couldn't breathe.

[This Bai Wenyu still has a career plan. He left half of the hidden gold to his descendants, and the other half he planned to take out when the time came to fight for the throne, so that he could gain the merit of following the dragon.]

【They are all talented! 】

Where do you think the gold is hidden?

Cao Kuan now wished he could come up and shake Xu Jinyu's shoulders.

[This Bai Wenyu actually hid the gold in his own ancestral tomb! This way, no one would suspect him even if he frequently visited.]

[This Bai Wenyu is really not afraid of his ancestors getting up in the middle of the night and scolding him. ]

Xu Jinyu kept complaining in his heart.

Finally getting the exact location of the gold, Cao Kuan's eyes moved, and immediately the guards and imperial guards of the Prince's Mansion moved.

After leaving the mine, a guard grabbed a guard and asked, "What happened just now?"

The guard said mysteriously: "It cannot be said. It cannot be said."

After letting Xu Jinyu solve the most important problem, Cao Kuan simply accompanied Xu Jinyu to visit the mine.

Xizhou,

As a provincial capital, Xizhou is naturally prosperous, but recently Xizhou can be said to be in a state of panic.

The entire Xizhou, from the prefect to the county magistrate, chief clerk, county lieutenant and the like, was arrested.

As luck would have it, there is a severe drought in Western Province right now, and there are many things to do, so the imperial guards from the capital are sent by the prince to various counties to take charge of the work.

They can only go back after the officials sent from the capital arrive.

The emperor told the prince all this in a letter.

As for the 10,000 imperial guards, half of them were left in Xizhou, and the other 5,000 guards escorted 50,000 taels of gold and the officials of Xizhou back to the capital.

After all these were dealt with, it started to rain in Xizhou.

The rain was neither heavy nor light and it lasted the whole day.

It is just enough to moisten the land that has been dry for almost half a year.

A few days after the rain, the sweet potatoes and potatoes planted by the people in Zhengyang County began to sprout.

People from other counties in Xizhou's eyes turned red when they saw the lush green crops in Zhengyang County.

The people in Zhengyang County were so scared that they patrolled day and night, fearing that someone would get jealous and destroy their crops.

Zi Shuyan stood at the gate of the government office and looked at the people partying in the rain, a smile on his face.

It’s finally raining, so Xizhou won’t have a complete harvest.

Suddenly, a woman was pushed out of the crowd by the revelers and fell right in front of Zishuyan.

"Ah!" a soft cry.

The woman was dressed in white, and the half-wet clothes stuck to her body, revealing her slim figure.

The girl raised her head and looked at Zi Shuyan with watery eyes.

Zi Shuyan bent down and wanted to help the girl up.

[Help quickly! Help quickly! ]

[I want to look pretty in mourning clothes, but this girl looks really pretty in this one. ]

[But she was really in mourning. She was the daughter of Bai Wenyu's concubine, and she came to avenge her father in mourning clothes.]

[There's a knife hidden in my sleeve! ]

Hearing this familiar voice, Zi Shuyan withdrew his hand, straightened his back, and stepped back in one go.

The next moment two swords were placed on the girl's neck.
