Du Xiaoyue said fiercely: "Whatever you deserve or don't deserve, I won't give it to you."

"You won't give it to me? Hahahaha..." He Shen laughed heartily and said, "Mo Li, Mo Li, why don't you show up at this time?"

He was very proud after saying this.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

At this moment, there was a sudden burst of laughter, which sounded very familiar.

Heshen immediately stopped smiling, looked around, and noticed that there was someone on the rockery. He wondered how Mo Li got there.

"Hey, Master He, I've been here a long time ago." Mo Li said with a smile, "I've been watching you the whole time."

"Master Mo." The two women said at the same time, pushed away the officers and soldiers beside them, and went to the rockery to search.

He Shen said, "Oh, Lord Mo came so quickly."

Mo Li said, "Hey, if you're fast, I can't be slow."

He Shen said: "I was the one who captured him."

Mo Li said, "That's what I want."

He Shen said, "Then we each get half?"

Mo Li seemed very surprised and said, "My Lord, I don't intend to keep it all for myself."

They both burst into laughter at the same time.

……

The trees in the yard are lush and green.

There were three people sitting in the room.

It was Heshen, Mo Li, and Chen Huizu.

Heshen stood up and said, "Brother, there is no need to be nervous. We are just investigating according to the emperor's order. Although you have been dismissed from your post, it is only temporary. As long as you can prove your innocence, you will be reinstated." He walked around Chen Huizu while speaking, and then returned to his seat and sat down after he finished speaking.

Chen Huizu said, "Then please ask your questions, and I will explain everything to you."

He Shen said, "Okay."

Mo Li took a puff of cigarette and said nothing.

He Shen glanced at him, then at Chen Huizu, and said, "The emperor saw the imperial beads you confiscated from the Wang family and presented to the Imperial Household Department. He was very surprised and asked why Wang Danwang, with a fortune of millions, would wear such inferior imperial beads."

Chen Huizu said expressionlessly, "Wang Danwang was from Shanxi and lived a frugal life. He was reluctant to wear anything. The imperial beads I confiscated from his home were truly unsightly. To present them to the Imperial Household Department, I sent my men to buy the best available ones. I paid for them myself, but it caused a lot of trouble."

With a sad face, he continued, "I feel wronged, so wronged."

After saying that, she started crying.

He Shen felt bad when he saw this and said, "Alright, alright, brother... brother..."

After saying that, he looked at Mo Li.

Mo Li smoked by himself without saying anything.

He Shen said, "Brother, I have a question I need to ask you. It's that... you actually found things that were confiscated from Wang Danwang's house in an antique shop, and the owner of this shop is your wife's uncle. Um... how do you explain this?"

Chen Huizu stopped crying and said, "He runs a pawnshop and antique shop. We've never had any financial relationship. So what? Relatives of officials can't do business?"

He Shen waved his hand and said, "That's not what I meant. I just wanted to ask how these things ended up in his possession."

Chen Huizu said, "It was bought, or someone pawned it. I'm not sure."

He Shen asked, "Where is your brother-in-law?"

Chen Huizu said, "As soon as you closed the shop, he ran away. I don't know where he went."

Mo Li took a puff and found that there was no cigarette left. He said, "Hey, the fire is out."

Chen Huizu looked puzzled and asked, "Mo Zhongtang, what do you mean?"

Mo Li said, "Ah? I mean the fire is out."

Heshen looked at him with a distressed expression.

Mo Li took a few puffs and continued, "Hmm...it's happening again."

He Shen thought for a moment and said, "Oh right, when they searched the embezzlement room, they said there were gold leaves, gold bars, gold bricks, gold ingots, and gold ingots, totaling four or five thousand taels. But the report says it's all silver. Did they change it?"
