He was calculated by this young man, from the beginning to the end.

When things came to an end, there was nothing to say.

Tang Tianyuan had already controlled Zhou Zhengdao, Sun Yuanwai, Qi Yuanwai, and others. By the way, he turned over the Sun and Qi families and found a batch of gold bricks of poor quality—these gold bricks should have sunk under the undercurrent. The gold bricks are of the same shape, size, and color, so they are considered physical evidence. Sun Yuanwai and Qi Yuanwai learned that the county magistrate was actually a special commissioner, so the person who knew the current affairs was Junjie, and he recruited him quickly.

Zhou Zhengdao himself was an accomplice, and after insisting for a few times, he finally couldn't help being intimidated and recruited.

These things can only be done in one day and one night, and people have to marvel at its efficiency.

As for Zong Yinglin, because the charges are more complicated - knowing qíng and not reporting it, embezzling and accepting bribes, asking for bribes, and also suspected of murder, Tang Tianyuan planned to send him to the Ministry of Justice for trial to save trouble. Anyway, as an imperial envoy, his mission is to help the emperor find money. Now that the money has been found, he doesn't need to worry about other things.

Of course, he still had to help his friend to collect evidence, so Tang Tianyuan sent someone to Zong Yinglin's house to look it up. His original intention was to find some gold bricks of the same fineness, but he did not expect that in addition to the gold bricks, there were some unexpected gains.

A concubine of Zong Yinglin took the initiative to provide two account books to the officials who were arrested. The account books are well organized, detailed and colorful. The official was shocked, and after inquiring carefully, he realized that this concubine was originally accepted by Zong Yinglin. The girl has suffered so much and suffered unbearably. In order to take revenge, she has been bearing the burden. Today, the sky has eyes, and she finally seized the opportunity.

Tang Tianyuan was not without emotion and gave the concubine a lot of remuneration.

Zheng Shaofeng's army was stationed on the outskirts of Tongling. He selected 600 soldiers and waited for Tang Tianyuan's arrangement.

Tang Tianyuan temporarily purchased thirty-two carriages and entered Tianmu Mountain disguised as a convoy transporting grain. Zheng Shaofeng took a group of cronies down to the tomb. He was a little worried. It would be easy to fish for gold in the water, but it is said that there are 100,000 taels. When will it be caught? People can't breathe in water, and they can only fish a little at a time, which is too inefficient. Moreover, the repeated launching in the winter is too painful.

A few people did not rush to do it, and gathered around the shore to think of ideas. Tan Lingyin suggested using fishing nets, and Zheng Shaofeng felt that the crowd tactics could be used.

Neither idea is realistic.

Tang Tianyuan walked back and forth on the shore for a while, listening to the sound of rushing water, and said, "This water is living water."

Zheng Shaofeng didn't understand what he meant, and said, "Yes, do you think there will be fish?"

However, Tan Lingyin's eyes suddenly became straight, and then she looked at Tang Tianyuan with a stunned expression.

Tang Tianyuan smiled slightly, "Understood?"

Tan Lingyin nodded as if pecking at rice.

Zheng Shaofeng was puzzled, "I said, what do you mean when you two look at each other?"

Tan Lingyin explained with a smile, "Drain the lake and fish."

Tang Tianyuan's "my woman is smart" pride made Zheng Shaofeng very uncomfortable. What bothered him the most was that he didn't immediately understand what "fishing out of the water" meant, he had to think about the origin and interpretation of this idiom first, then analyze it, and then slap his forehead, "I see! "

Well, you were the last to know.

Tang Tianyuan had just observed it, this undercurrent is not big, the upper stream is narrow and the lower stream is wide, and the water surface height basically does not change. According to the recollection of King Li, the depth of the undercurrent is about more than enough.

If they stopped the water upstream, and when the water level dropped low enough, huáng gold would naturally appear.

Because it is a disguised grain truck, there are sacks on the truck. Zheng Shaofeng asked people to bring down many sacks, and without hesitation, he knocked and smashed the blue bricks of the tomb, dug up the soil, mixed them with the broken bricks and put them in sacks, and then threw them into the water. The bricks in this tomb were used up, and people ran over to lift them. While he was busy working, he was chatting with the coffin, "I have to do a big thing today, and I need some help from Your Excellency. He will pay you better in the future. Don't be surprised," he said, bowing towards it After handing over his hands, he added, "This matter was ordered by the emperor. If you are really angry, go to him and reason with him. He lives in the Forbidden City, so it's easy to find..."

Tan Lingyin listened with black lines all over her head. The emperor is full of dragon energy, how dare the demons and ghosts get close. Don't talk about the emperor, just say Zheng Shaofeng, because he has been on the battlefield and has life in his hands, so he is full of evil spirits. Such people are also very afraid of ghosts. Oh, and Tang Tianyuan, Wen Quxing descended to the world, immortal qi protects the body, and evil spirits dare not approach.

After thinking about it, Tan Lingyin found out sadly that if the owner of this place is really resentful, she is the most likely person to find...

The method of "fishing out of the water" works very well. They are equivalent to building a tiny dam on the upstream side of the undercurrent. The dam is not strong and leaks, but it can be used so-so. The water surface was slowly descending, and after waiting for nearly an hour, the golden bricks gradually emerged.

Tan Lingyin had never seen so much gold before, her eyes were about to pop out, and her heart was beating wildly.

At this time, the quality of the regular army has come. Although everyone is a little excited, they are still disciplined and ready to follow Zheng Shaofeng's command at any time.

Zheng Shaofeng divided everyone into three batches. The first group is the confidant, who is specially responsible for loading gold by the water; the second group is the confidant in the confidant, who is responsible for transporting the gold in the box. This group of people is connected to the inside and outside, and half a word is not allowed to be disclosed; the third group is the rest of the people, and this group accounts for the majority. They are waiting outside to guard the goods. what is. Zheng Shaofeng left Tang Tianyuan and Tan Lingyin as supervisors at the water's edge, and he went up to fight the battle himself.

The entire transportation process lasted for more than an hour.

All the golden cars are installed, and the sun is already in the west. Zheng Shaofeng brought people back to the camp. Three thousand people looked after 30 vehicles, and they surrounded the grain trucks layer by layer. Zheng Shao issued a military order: If any idlers deliberately approach the grain cart, they will be shot and killed; if anyone inquires about what is in the grain cart, they will be shot and killed; if anyone talks about this, they will eat a hundred military sticks. Give an order, everyone knows that this thing is amazing - naturally amazing, otherwise it would not have dispatched thousands of people to transport thirty carts of grain. The military order is as big as the sky, and everyone dares to be curious only secretly.

After returning to the county office, Tang Tianyuan rewarded everyone who went to the tomb together that day, and wrote a letter of recommendation to everyone except Mr. Feng Shui. The next Tongling county magistrate will not see the recommendation letter. Treat them lightly. He also warned them to be tight-lipped.

Then, he found Duan Feng and gave him a package of silver, "Take this money and send it to your brothers, 22 per person, so that everyone can do some business."

Duan Feng took the silver and asked, "Is my sin not cured?" At first, he said that he would kill him.

Tang Tianyuan shook his head, "You can repent of your merits, you don't have to die, at most exile. But the girl who was hanged, I have already found her family. They promised that as long as you give out fifty taels of silver, you won't be able to do it again. pursue this."

"I-I don't have that much money..."

"I've already helped you."

Hearing this, Duan Feng fell to his knees and gave Tang Tianyuan a heavy kowtow, "Sir, you are my reborn parents. I will do whatever you ask me to do in the future."

"You get up, I don't need you to do anything. You are good at skills and chivalrous. Remember to do things right in the future and don't harm others."

"I will definitely do it."

As soon as the wind on the front foot left, the rear foot came along. He came to Tang Tianyuan for two things. The first is to thank Zong Yinglin for a bad thing, the tree fell and the hozen scattered, and his family was really safe. The second is to plead guilty. In any case, he did participate in the case and gave Zong Yinglin a lot of clues.

"No," Tang Tianyuan shook his head, "We never asked."

So far, all the things that should be replaced have been replaced. He should leave too.

☆、Chapter 80

The wind in the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month, as if it was caught in ice balls, hit the face, and the muscles on the face were so hard that it seemed to freeze.

Tan Lingyin couldn't help taking off the mink gloves and rubbed her face.

Tang Tianyuan said, "Who told you not to take a carriage, is it cold?"

Tan Lingyin tightened the rabbit fur scarf and lowered the fox fur hat. Her voice came from a pile of rabbit fur, a little weird, "It's not cold, it's quite fun."

She dressed up as a soldier and followed without armor. She wanted to ride a horse, but unfortunately she couldn't. If she rode with Tang Tianyuan, she would feel high-profile and weird.

So she came out riding a donkey. Anyway, the carriage of gold was not going fast, even if she rode a pig to follow, it would not be a delay.

Tang Tianyuan himself rode a tall horse, the height difference between the two was much, and Tan Lingyin had to raise his head when talking to him. At this moment, her face was buried between the silver-white fox fur and rabbit fur, making her even smaller. Tang Tianyuan looked down at the soldier on the donkey, shook his head and smiled, "Promising."

Qingchen followed them, watching his sister so funny, he also smiled silently.

Zheng Shaofeng walked at the front of the team, Tang Tianyuan and the three were behind, and behind them was the Tang family's own team.

The gold recovered from the tomb was connected with the stolen money from the Sun, Qi, and Zong families, plus the sum kept by Tan Lingyin. With so much money, many people are still in the dark. He couldn't check it one by one, but he could only lock and seal all the boxes and transport them to the household department safely.

In addition to Huáng Jin, he also had to deliver Qingchen safely to the emperor and the queen. As for Tan Lingyin, she originally wanted to go home for the Chinese New Year, but Tang Tianyuan insisted that she follow her back to Beijing first. It is the end of the year, and it is such a big credit. If you don't take the opportunity to discuss more benefits with the emperor, do you still want to wait until the end of the new year?

Therefore, when Tan Lingyin passed by Jinan, she and Qingchen hurriedly went home to take a look. Without having a meal, she turned back to catch up with the large army. Tang Tianyuan sent someone to protect them. If he hadn't been able to walk away, he would definitely visit his future father-in-law in person.

When we arrived in the capital, it was already the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month. After Tang Tianyuan and Hubu Jiāo were picked up, it was too late to go home, so he took Tan Lingyin and Qingchen to the palace with Zheng Shaofeng. Ji Heng already knew about this, and he was naturally very happy to see them coming back. He decided to reward them heavily. So ask them one by one what they want.

Asked Tang Tianyuan, Tang Tianyuan replied, "Your Majesty, you should just put the reward of Wei Chen on Tan Lingyin's head."

Ask Zheng Shaofeng, Zheng Shaofeng replied, "I want a daughter-in-law."

Ji Heng asked Tan Lingyin again.

Tan Lingyin is a little confused, she doesn't seem to want anything special? At first, she was very excited when she heard that she was going to seek favors from the emperor. She calculated how much it would cost, but when she saw that so much money was given to the state treasury, she felt that if the money was given to the state, at least something could be done. It's good, she's not short of money anyway...

Tang Tianyuan kept winking at Tan Lingyin, encouraging her to speak loudly.

Tan Lingyin said, "Would you like to give Master Tang a promotion?"

Tang Tianyuan was a little moved and a little funny, and sighed that their family sound was stupid at a critical moment. There is no need to say about such a promotion, the emperor will give him a promotion. Asking for favors is not such a way. Tang Tianyuan regretted not communicating with Tan Lingyin in advance, and he did not expect that the emperor would ask such a direct question.

Ji Heng felt that the answers of these three people were very boring. He glanced at Qingchen, and finally didn't ask him. What if Qingchen wanted Tan Lingyin...

So Ji Heng said, "Achen, your sister misses you very much, go see him."

Qingchen left with a eunuch.

The palace is very big, Qingchen walked for a while before reaching Kunning Palace. It was only later that he found out that his sister was actually the queen's. Although she was a real sister, her identity was there, so when she saw her in Qingchen, she wanted to kneel.
