Chapter 316 Let's Make a Bet(2/2)

Zhang Yi sat in the public room, holding a teacup in his hand, dazed and dazed.

The emperor left, but left a terrible message.

That Longsheng Money House... turned out to be a liar!

He frowned, his face changed, and he was really unsure.

Cao Nai came over and saw his absent-minded look, and couldn't help but say, "Shiqian, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang Yi came back to his senses and said, "It's nothing, it's just... thinking about what happened today..."

Of course, Cao Nai knew what he was thinking about.

"Didn't the emperor say that he will not seal the money house. If you invested money, you can take it out now!"

Zhang Yi nodded and said, "To be honest, I have sent someone to my house to deliver a letter and ask the dog to take back all the money he invested in. I was very puzzled. The owner of Longsheng Money House had previously found out that his wealth was very innocent. Moreover, he was indeed a very capable businessman before, with a very good reputation and everyone praised him. How could he be a liar?"

Cao Nai said: "I know a little about that Longsheng Money House. It is said that many princes and nobles, including hundreds of officials in the court, and countless people, have invested money. If they are really liars, it would be fine if one or two were deceived. Such a large industry is indeed a bit unreasonable."

Zhang Yi felt a little relieved, and he nodded and said, "So, the emperor was wrong this time."

Cao Nai thought for a while and said, "Why would you like to hand me a note to Shuntian Mansion and ask them to check the details of Longsheng Money House?"

Zhang Yi waved his hand and said, "Forget it, Shuntian Mansion is now out of his way. Besides, if someone keeps inquiring about the details of others and being known by others, it will inevitably have a bad impact on the money house. Will the emperor not say it for five days, and he will see it at that time. I also want to know now whether the emperor is as expected or not."

Even though he said so, he was still a little restless.

Because... he really invested money!

Think about it, if one hundred taels of silver goes on, you will get a profit of five taels of silver every month. Now the silver is getting worse every year, and it will depreciate in your hands. There are risks in doing business. Such profitable places cannot be found even with lanterns.

Even if you invest your own wealth and life, you will naturally be very happy after receiving dividends every month.

If this Longsheng Money House is a liar, can he still survive?

Not only him, but those who invested money, but not 100,000 or 80,000, were they all cheated?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Let's talk about Shuntian Mansion, Mr. Cao, what do you think of this case?"

Cao Nai pondered for a moment and said, "At the time, I heard Wu Zhide say it very clearly. Among the files presented in Changping County, there were confessions of thirteen witnesses, so there should be no mistakes."

Zhang Yi suddenly asked: "What if these witnesses were really threatened and tempted to make false evidence? You should know that the plaintiff in this lawsuit is a civilian, and the defendant is a local gentry, which is not impossible!"

Cao Nai replied: "Your questions are just speculations. Now we have no real evidence, we can only judge based on the existing situation. What can be confirmed now are those confessions."

He was not without doubt about the case, but no matter how confused he was, the trial of the case was ultimately based on evidence.

What are the collusion between gentry and bribery of witnesses... These are just speculations, who can confirm it?

Since there is nothing, how can I evaluate it?

Zhang Yi thought for a while, then said, "What Cao Gong said is very true. Now we can only guess but have no way to confirm it. Why not do this? I will go to Wangjiazhuang in Changping in person."

Cao Nai nodded first, then said, "I'll go, you can handle the matter at home quickly."

This is just that there is no clear statement. You should hurry up and take out your money. If you are really cheated, how can you live the rest of your life?

"The family's mundane things have to be cooked. Cao Gong is old and it is not convenient to travel a long distance. I'd better go there!"

Zhang Yi's attitude was very firm. He felt that as a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, he could not always sit at home and listen to others say this and that.

What if the information you get is wrong?

Just talk about this Changping case. If the crew member was really wronged, from a gentry to a county magistrate, then to the prefect, and then to the Ministry of Justice, he would not be able to turn over. Who would he tell him about his grievances?

If it weren't for Peng Qing, then would he have only one way to die?
