C44 Large Case
Wei Zhongxian crossed his arms and said, "Is Prince of Sung referring to the robbery in the palace?"
What kind of status did Wei Zhongxian have?
He was the head eunuch of the palace, so what did his words represent? It meant that something big had happened in the palace!
Had the palace been robbed?
Wei Zhongxian's words shocked everyone.
What kind of place was the palace? That was the most important place in all of China, where the Human Emperor lived, where the concubines of the harem lived.
But he saw Shen Muqing ask, "Lord Eunuch Wei , what is going on?"
Wei Zhongxian said, "Actually, this didn't happen now. It happened more than 10 years ago!
During one of the renovations in the palace, the items from the treasury were unearthed. This was something that the Human Emperor did not like, it was all antique porcelain, famous people's calligraphy and paintings, Xuanyuan had no interest in these things. Furthermore, it needed to be refurbished and protected, so it was temporarily placed in the Jinhua Hall.
However, a few days ago, Prince of Sung wanted to ask for a spring and autumn rainy night, but when he sent people to retrieve it, he discovered that the Treasure Vault was missing dozens of treasures, such as porcelain, antiques, calligraphy and the like. "
Hearing this, the officials heaved a sigh of relief. So it was just someone stealing from someone, not a robbery!
At the same time, he was surprised to find out who had the guts to come to the palace to steal.
Wei Zheng said, "The imperial city is heavily guarded, how can anyone infiltrate the palace and steal treasures? Could it be that someone is hiding something? "
Wei Zhongxian shook his head: "After the crime, I also sent people to look for the Dali Kingdom Temple, and did a thorough check of all the eunuchs and maids in charge, but did not find any thieves, and also carefully questioned them later. All the indications indicated that the person who came was a great thief, and had high martial arts skills."
At this moment, the officials were in an uproar. Who would have thought that the robbers in the martial arts world would have the guts to come to the palace and steal the treasures? If news of this got out, where would the prestige of the imperial family go?
However, he heard Prince of Sung Zhao Kuangyin say: "And during the investigation, not only did the treasures of the Treasure and Flower Hall get stolen, but even the food in the imperial kitchens had been stolen. Furthermore, these dishes could be redone if there was too little, so those people in the imperial kitchens kept their responsibilities hidden and didn't report it."
I was so angry that my hair stood on end. "How dare you! Don't you know that these gangsters have offended the heavens?"
The group of officials revealed an expression of indignation. After all, the palace had actually become the backyard of these thieves. What audacity.
This act was completely not in the eyes of the imperial government!
When Wei Zheng suddenly saw Liu Xi, he knew that Liu Xi was the leader of Eastern Depot.
He opened his eyes wide and said: "Eunuch Liu, the case is being handed over to Eastern Depot, have you captured anyone?"
In a split-second, everyone looked at Liu Xi. Their gazes focused on him and Liu Xi felt a great deal of pressure. He stuttered: "This … That bandit's movement technique is really high, we just couldn't find him. "
In fact, how could he care about those thieves during this period of time. He had to deal with Jiang Biehe's matters. Wei Zheng was so smart, and when he saw Liu Xi acting like this, he knew Liu Xi was just being perfunctory.
They took a step forward, pointed at Liu Xi, and said: "As the governor of Eastern Depot, you are the factory elder of Eastern Depot, and the palace has recruited a thief, yet you push such an important case away, as if it were trash to the extreme, what kind of factory elder are you acting as? Go home! Carry your grandson. That's right, you can't carry your grandson, you're missing something! "
Wei Zheng was furious. It was rare for a civil servant to scold someone like this.
Wu Tie was furious but he didn't dare to make a move. Although Wei Zheng was a civil servant and didn't have any martial arts skills, he didn't dare to touch Wei Zheng. He wouldn't even dare to hurt a single hair on his head.
If he hurt Wei Zheng, with Wei Zheng's influence in the court and his reputation among the commoners, even the Human Emperor wouldn't be able to protect him!
