    ?

    Eunuch Liu was taken aback and couldn't help leaning his back against the door of the small warehouse.

    Zhang Luo didn't expect that he also had the opportunity to be a Bidong person.  But eunuch Liu is still an eunuch even though he was born well, she felt a little regretful when she thought about it.

    "Tell me, how did you team up with Master Xu and trick me into the palace!"

    "Me? Master Xu? Absolutely not! It was the official who said: 'Accountant Zhang is talented, and he is summoned to serve in the palace'."

    Zhang Luo was still staring fiercely, making Eunuch Liu feel that she was simply a white-fronted tiger that jumped out of the dark woods.

    "Besides, XuMaster Xu is also a decent person. Otherwise, he entered the palace with Tong Guan, took charge of the money and food when he went to war, and helped win the battle, why didn't he see the reward"

    Before he finished speaking, the door panel behind him was kicked open by someone's big foot.

    Eunuch Liu bumped into Zhang Luo and fell to the ground.  The siu mai, shrimp dumplings, puff pastry beef patties and japonica rice porridge in the food box spilled all over the floor.  The bowl and ladle also had to turn around on the ground a few times before stopping.

    Outside the gate, in the half-dark sky, Yue Yuhou had a red neck and clenched two fists.  He suddenly saw the two people in front of him stacked on the ground, covered his face, and shouted:

    "Is there still courtesy, righteousness and shame in this world?"

    "This Minister of the Forbidden Army, I was personally sent by Zhang Duzhi to deliver the food." Eunuch Liu quickly argued.

    Zhang Luoke is not so honest.  The experience of dealing with workers on the construction site told her: In this world, whoever is evil is justified, and quarrels must be loud.  She pushed Eunuch Liu away and got up: "Who kicked the door without courtesy?"

    Eunuch Liu also woke up and was furious:

    "Besides, this is the place His Majesty gave Accountant Zhang to live in. But he can break in with one kick? I think Yang Duyuhou above you is relying on the power of some adult?"

    Yue Yuhou didn't expect to implicate his boss, so he bowed his hands:

    "The villain is reckless. I heard that the main hall of Douyuan Courtyard burned down last night. I thought there were still some broken bricks and tiles. Accountant Zhang smashed the wall of Yaohua Palace again, so he ignored it"

    It was only then that Zhang Luo remembered that he had broken the wall of Aunt Chongzhen's house.

    "Ah I didn't mean to ignore it, I forgot."

    Yue Yuhou saw that she really didn't seem to be lying: "I led someone to help my mother repair it. But there are fewer bricks and tiles."

    Eunuch Liu looked at Zhang Luo: "When I came in, I saw some broken bricks beside the main courtyard."

    Zhang Luo patted his butt and led Eunuch Liu and Yue Yuhou to move.

    At this time, the yard was so quiet that only the sound of the wind and the footsteps of three people could be heard.  The moon has risen from the sky into the sky, big and bright like a silver basin.

    Zhang Luo saw across the small courtyard wall that a shed had already been set up on the site of the main hall where he had received the book.  However, the four corners of the shed were covered, and there seemed to be something underneath.  She thought it was bricks and rubble, and ran over to lift it, only to find that it was sacks of sacks, emitting a strong musty smell of grain and straw, very similar to the smell in Xinghua warehouse in the afternoon.

    She quickly opened a pocket to look.  Sure enough, it was full of tatters made of straw rope.

    Zhang Luo's scalp tightened, and the second trap was already waiting for him.

    ?Master Xu appeared out of nowhere, looked at Yue Yuhou and Eunuch Liu, then at Zhang Luo and the food pockets, and asked:

    "Several, what are you doing here at night?"

    Yue Yuhou arched his hands: "The villain heard that there are some broken bricks in this Douyuan courtyard"

    Master Xu straightened his neck: "Although the good ones have already been sold. The rest, the Sa family will keep them for a few coins and use them flexibly. Otherwise, why call it out of the water?"

    Eunuch Liu quickly covered his ears.

    Zhang Luo knew that he could hear it as clearly as he could.  It's just the same thing, she was a little concerned: "The officials said that Zhang Du knew about the idea of ??setting fire to the yard."

    Master Xu swept his sleeves, but did not make a sound.  But from that point of view, this is just a "legend".

    "Then, is Master Xu's plan to drop the grain?" Zhang Luo pointed to the shed and asked again.

    Master Xu hummed a little tune, and retreated to the pile of broken bricks and tiles by the wall of the small courtyard.  Obviously that was his stuff, the pockets had nothing to do with him.

    Zhang Luo was so angry that he had a headache.  Immediately, she realized something, so she held Yue Yuhou back and hummed softly:

    "Shall we trade and trade?"

    Early the next morning, in the side hall of the Daqing Hall in charge of the Northern Song Dynasty's Daqing Caiyi, Deputy Xu, who was in charge, knew it and walked around with his hands behind his back.

    This is a fat eunuch in his forties.  If it was changed to the previous dynasty, at his ageAccountant Zhang, who entered the palace, made a big fuss in Xinghua warehouse yesterday, causing a catastrophe, and now he still refuses to admit it.  "

    Eunuch Zhang looked back.  Zhang Luo also quickly stood up and bowed, which made everyone in the corridor laugh.

    "Deputy Xu knows what our grandpa means. Let's make big things into small things and make small things into nothing. Forget it. She is also a newcomer, so she only works and has a warm heart." A very useful little eunuch beside Eunuch Zhang, Xiao Niu'er,  Speak for Eunuch Zhang.

    "If you don't know how to deal with such a major event, there will be a catastrophe in the future." Deputy Xu knew that it would be such a messy handling, and he had already planned: "The Sa family will play and invite the empress to judge."

    The little cow next to Eunuch Zhang looked at Zhang Luo again, intending to make her pay for it, so that it would be difficult to press for the money back.

    "I didn't know that Xinghua warehouse was robbed of food." Zhang Luo was not in trouble either.  "The villain is here to settle accounts. It's only natural to pay off debts."

    Deputy Xu knew his face was green: "Come here, Taoist Lin from Longevity Mountain."

    And Lin Daoshi had already prepared at the back of the hall.  Seeing Shuo Shu grinding his teeth, Zhang Luo came in without panting.

    "Lin Daoshi, but you told me and everyone yesterday that she took the lead in making trouble and robbed the Xinghua warehouse?!"

    "Exactly." Shuo Shu looked at Zhang Luo with a sly look on his face.

    Zhang Luo hurriedly took his hand back from the tea and fruit saucer on the small table beside the seat.

    "The villain also has evidence. There was no food in the Xinghua warehouse early in the morning. It was just a golden cicada came to escape its shell yesterday. The empty food bags were sent to the main hall of Douyuan Court. It is the place managed by Mr. Zhang."

    Zhang Luo did not forget to pull Eunuch Zhang to his side.

    Eunuch Zhang held up his gold belt: "The Sa family came to listen to this case on behalf of the officials, so it is natural for both sides to be impartial."

    Deputy Xu knew and expected Zhang Luo to say this.  In the middle of the night last night, someone from Immortal Guo's apprentice at Wanshou Mountain had come to tell him that Zhang Luo had found those empty pockets.  Those empty pockets were meant to be left there for Zhang Luo to discover.

    "Zhang Duknows, Sa family, please Duknows to drive to Douyuan Courtyard to witness in person."

    Eunuch Zhang picked the ashes under his fingernails:

    "The government has been busy for several days. Now I am seeing Mr. Zongze and other important ministers in the back hall"

    Zhang Luo patted the account book: "My lords, this account owes a total of four hundred and ninety-eight thousand six hundred and twenty-five taels and fifty-five Wen."

    Deputy Xu was so angry that his nose was almost crooked: "You all know, the Sa family will ask the empress to inspect Douyuan Courtyard in person."

    Eunuch Zhang looked around and let out a sigh:

    "Since both of you are unwilling to listen to Sajia's words and share the worries of the officials, then go to Douyuan Courtyard to have a look."

    So, Eunuch Zhang took the lead, followed by his young eunuchs, Zhang Luo, Deputy Xu, and the melon-eating crowd who watched the excitement from the corridor, and came towards Douyuan Courtyard in the outer courtyard of the imperial city.  There are many people, the road is long, and the walk is naturally slow.  It was after lunch time that this group of people arrived at the place.  The eunuchs from Xinghua Warehouse were already waiting at the gate.

    The shed that was built just yesterday seemed a little fatter than last night.

    Eunuch Zhang looked at Deputy Xu, then looked at Zhang Luo, and sighed for a while: "It's nothing to worry about."

    Then, the little eunuchs opened the shed, pulled out a bulging pocket from the inside together, and inserted it with the knife in the boot.  The golden grains gushed out in gurgling waves.

    All the people who eat melons clicked their tongues.

    "Ah, what courage!"

    "You really dare to grab the Xinghua warehouse!"

    "Is this worth it?!"

    "This" Zhang Luo hurriedly yelled: "I don't know. It was obviously empty last night, stuffed with straw"

    Shouting, she looked around, but Yue Yuhou and Eunuch Liu were nowhere to be seen.

    Eunuch Zhang's face also fell, and he stomped on the stone bricks under his feet with his front toes.  A little eunuch behind him, seeing that everyone was not paying attention, slipped out of Douyuan Courtyard and ran towards Minghua Pavilion where Master Li lived.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
