The legitimate daughter brings disaster to the concubine! Seize the imperial power and the throne

"Pick up money?"

When Bu Yan heard the news, he frowned in confusion until Lin Qi handed him the copper coin that had been washed clean of the mud.

The brand new copper coin still smells of mud.

Bu Yan was holding the copper coin in a daze, but Lin Qi said, "A heavy rainstorm actually washed out so many copper coins, and they are exactly the same as the ones cast by Rong Chang. It's so strange."

Bu Yan's eyes moved slightly, he curled his lips in a smile, and put the coin back on the table.

"Pour out two boxes of the copper coins found from Rong Chang yesterday and bury them in several places. Also, go to the prison in person and tell Rong Chang not to say anything he shouldn't."

Lin Qi's eyelids twitched: "Sir, what are you going to do?"

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask!" After Bu Yan gave the order, he stood up with his long legs and walked outside.

In just two hours

Copper coins were found in several places in the capital, and they were not made for official uniforms, but were privately cast.

Bu Yan took people to collect these copper coins that appeared inexplicably throughout the morning. During the process, someone reported that a servant of Murong family used the copper coins to buy wine and was caught by the person in charge.

Bu Yan happened to be not far away, and he took the servant back for interrogation on the spot.

"Master Bu!" Master Murong was also working nearby. When he heard that this matter involved his own house, he hurriedly tried to stop it: "This must be a misunderstanding. Please forgive me, Master."

"Master Murong, please tell me, what's the misunderstanding?" Bu Yan put his hand on his waist and glanced at Master Murong nonchalantly. "This boy was caught by the person in charge when he went out to buy things. There are witnesses and evidence. When I reported the Rong family to the government yesterday, I also personally interrogated him. I can't be partial to one and lose justice. Master Murong, don't worry, if it's a misunderstanding, this person will be released soon."

These few words left Lord Murong speechless.

However, the news that the Shangguan Mansion had reported the Rong family was like a sharp sword piercing Lord Murong's heart.

Shangguan Mansion...

Lord Murong changed his route and went to Shangguan Mansion without saying a word.

When Murong heard that her brother had arrived, she hurried out to greet him. However, when she saw Lord Murong's gloomy face, her eyelids twitched: "Brother, what happened?"

Then, Lord Murong recounted what had just happened and asked, "Why did the Shangguan family report the Rong family for no reason?"

Murong was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that this matter would involve the Murong family.

He was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say, but in his heart he cursed Miss Lang several times, this bitch, she tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice, and even dragged the Murong family into the quagmire.

"Brother, this may be a misunderstanding. Besides, Bu Yan wouldn't dare to do anything to the Murong family. We have nothing to fear as we are upright." Murong could only comfort him.

Lord Murong snorted: "It's better this way."

Before Lord Murong could even sip his tea, a servant came outside the door and said, "Sir, sir, Qingsong has confessed."

Lord Murong stood up suddenly: "What did you do?"

"According to the people in the government office, Qingsong has already confessed that the loan money was secretly taken from the government storehouse. He used it fine before, but this time something went wrong."

"Asshole!" Lord Murong was furious. When did his house have any money for loan sharking?

Now even Murong was no longer calm, and she kept shouting that this must be a frame-up!

But Lord Murong ignored Murong, his face was very gloomy: "It must be that the Shangguan Mansion offended someone who shouldn't have been offended, and implicated the Murong family. You'd better take care of yourself!"

After saying this, he turned around and left without giving Murong a chance to speak.

Murong was so angry that she sent someone to call Miss Lang over.

Soon Miss Lang arrived. She thought it was some good news, so she dressed up specially for the occasion. However, she was slapped in the face as soon as she entered the door.

Murong pointed at Miss Lang angrily and said, "You are a jinx. If anything happens to the Murong family, I will not forgive you!"

Miss Lang was confused, covering her face in shock and anger.

When Lord Murong rushed back, Bu Yan was waiting at the door, holding the testimony in his hand: "Lord Murong, can you let me search the mansion?"

"Master Bu, this is inappropriate, isn't it?"

"Don't worry, Lord Murong. I won't disturb the women in your house. The Rong family was searched yesterday. Please give me some convenience."

Although the tone was clearly one of negotiation, his attitude was unquestionably firm, leaving no room for Lord Murong to refute.

People were coming and going on the street, and many of them noticed this scene and pointed and talked about it.

Lord Murong's face turned pale and blue, and he was reluctant to speak.

But surprisingly, Bu Yan did not insist for long. The person behind him did not know what he said, but Bu Yan just took his people away.

The group of people just dispersed.

Lord Murong was still in shock and hurried back to investigate the mansion. The butler behind him couldn't help but mutter, "Sir, Lord Bu might just be bluffing and might not dare to investigate thoroughly."

"What do you know? Bu Yan is just a mouse with a sensitive nose. He will go wherever there is a fishy smell. If he insists on searching, who dares to stop him?"

The door of Murong's house was tightly closed, and no one was allowed in or out.

Someone was beating a drum at the gate of Jingzhao Yin to protest for justice. It was the old lady of the Rong family. She raised her walking stick and hit the drum at the gate hard.

boom!boom!

The drums were deafening.

He didn't stop until Bu Yan arrived.

"What does this mean, old lady?"

Madam Rong said angrily: "Someone falsely accused the Rong family of selfishly minting coins. I am here to appeal for justice. Please investigate thoroughly and give the Rong family justice!"

Bu Yan turned around to look at the people gathered behind him and immediately prepared to open the court for interrogation. Old Madam Rong asked to see Rong Chang.

"Bring it up!"

Soon, Rong Chang, who was beaten and bleeding, was carried up by two guards. He lay on the ground and cried out for justice. Seeing this, Madam Rong felt distressed and said, "Brother Chang!"

"Grandma, I am innocent. The house where I hid the usury money was given to me by someone else. I had no idea that the usury money was hidden there." Rong Chang shouted.

"Who gave it to you?" asked Madam Rong.

Rong Chang thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes...my mother gave it to me."

"Your mother?" Old Madam Rong frowned and immediately sent someone to ask Second Madam Rong to come over, and she arrived soon.

But he did not bring Mrs. Rong Er with him, only left a letter of confession.

The book said that the house was given by the Princess of Shen County herself, and that in order to obstruct the Crown Princess's Dubao Gongwan, the Princess of Shen County threatened her several times and forced her to do many wrong things. Madam Rong had no face to live in this world, so she died to apologize.

"It's actually the Princess of Shen County!"

"No wonder the Rong family is targeted for being so low-key. It turns out it's because of Baogong Pills."

The people in the crowd exclaimed.

Bu Yan sat on the high hall without saying a word, letting the situation develop. Lin Qi behind him touched his nose. If he hadn't brought people to set up the scene yesterday, he would have almost believed that this situation had nothing to do with the Rong family.

Lin Qi couldn't help but sigh. Princess Shen could have offend anyone else, but she had to offend her master.

Ugh!
