"I am here to see His Highness the Crown Prince."

In the large tent of the Tiance Army's military camp, the young general of the Tiance Army bowed deeply to Li Chengfeng.

He began to feel nervous inexplicably.

It was a rare opportunity for him to lead his troops out of Chang'an this time.

If he did anything bad and was caught by Li Chengfeng, his career would probably come to an end.

"Don't be nervous, I came here this time to ask you something."

"The magistrate of Daqin County has opened an arena to collect money."

"It is said that all the funds were used to rebuild the houses of the people. Do you know this?"

Li Chengfeng came to the desk in the middle of the tent and sat down, looking at the young general in front of him with burning eyes.

When Li Chengfeng asked about this, the young general breathed a sigh of relief and then let go of the tension in his heart.

It's not just that he was negligent in his defense arrangements, and he also knew something about the matter Li Chengfeng asked.

"This matter is indeed as rumored."

"Daqin County Magistrate Xi Ming once mentioned this matter to the villain."

"And this matter should have been reported to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Don't you know, Your Highness?"

The young general of Tiance Army lowered his body and told everything he knew about the situation.

Li Chengfeng coughed repeatedly in embarrassment.

As a prince, he should have some understanding of these government affairs.

It's a pity that since he ascended to the throne of prince, he has never handled Chang'an government affairs.

"Of course I know, I just came here to ask you, how is the implementation of this matter?"

Li Chengfeng quickly changed the subject.

"Has there been any misappropriation of the money or making money secretly?"

Hearing Li Chengfeng ask this question, the face of the young general of Tiance Army gradually became serious.

"Your Highness, Daqin County will publicize this money at the gate of the county government office. The county magistrate should not be able to make money."

"As for the specific matter, Wei Chen doesn't know."

Li Chengfeng nodded slightly. It seemed that the magistrate of Daqin County had a good reputation. Even the newly stationed Tiance Army spoke for him.

"I will verify later. Are there any warriors causing trouble in Daqin County in the past two days?"

The young general of Tiance Army shook his head repeatedly.

"No, especially after I heard that His Highness killed many people last night."

"Those people are all very honest. We are afraid that our Tiance Army will do something to them."

After understanding the situation, Li Chengfeng left the Tiance Mansion military camp and returned to the ring.

Returning to where he was just now, he looked around for a long time but could not find Li Lizhi.

Li Chengfeng immediately frowned.

Although Li Lizhi is usually naughty and troublesome, she is never too outrageous.

Why did the person who was clearly here just now disappear in the blink of an eye?

If something happens to her, it will be much more serious than the corruption of the Daqin County magistrate.

Just as he was thinking, the fat man Xichong just came to him.

"Brother, what are you looking for here?"

"Is that the little girl next to you just now? I seemed to see her running over there."

Xichong, who was counting money, pointed to Li Chengfeng not far ahead.

"Thank you!"

Li Chengfeng did not doubt that he was there and rushed towards the direction pointed by Xi Chong.

After he left, Xichong, who was counting money, slowly looked behind him.

"You kid, don't do such things in the future. If you get angry, I won't be able to protect you."

"That's true of you. I told you that I would provide money to support those two old men, but you didn't want to."

"Where was that little girl just now? Where did she go?"

Behind Xichong, the young man who hit Li Lizhi just now came out.

"My two elders have no relation to me, and since they raised me, I naturally have to earn money to support them myself."

"I took a small road to avoid that girl just now. She is probably looking for me in the county seat now!"

"These people have money anyway, so what does this little thing mean?"

"Stop talking nonsense and see how much this thing is worth? That girl chased me for several streets."

The young man took out a piece of purple jade from his arms and handed it to Xichong in front of him.

Xichong's eyes widened when he saw the piece of jade, and his heart was in his throat.

This thing is not something that ordinary people can buy.

I'm afraid that the girl just now is either a descendant of a wealthy businessman or a female dependent of a high-ranking official.

"At least enough for you to support those two old men for more than ten years..."

Before Xichong finished speaking, he suddenly heard a gust of wind coming from behind him.

Before he could react, a hand suddenly fell on his shoulder, and Li Chengfeng's voice rang in their ears.

“Isn’t it a little too early to divide the spoils now?”

Li Chengfeng's voice sounded like a devil's whisper behind the two of them.

Panting, Li Lizhi came to the two of them, pointed at the boy with her eyes widened.

"Brother Feng'er, that boy, stole the Hotan Purple Jade that my father gave me!"

I was kind-hearted and reached out to help the boy, but I didn't expect that the boy actually stole the jade from me.

If it were ordinary things, she might not have to pursue them so hard.

This thing is different. It is one of the dowries given by Li Shimin to her in the future. If she loses it, she will be in trouble!

"I didn't, it has nothing to do with me!"

When the boy saw Li Chengfeng and Li Lizhi appear, he was so frightened that he turned around and ran back.

But since Li Chengfeng took action, how could he let him go?

He reached forward and grabbed hold of the young man's neck, and pulled him back.

"You...you are..."

Xichong was so frightened that his whole body trembled, and even his voice was trembling when he spoke.

The girl just now made the people in front of me angry, and she even mentioned her father.

In the entire Tang Dynasty, there is probably no one except Princess Changle who can say this.

Just now, I was arrogant and proud in front of the other party.

Little did he know that this young man was the richest man in the entire Tang Dynasty, the most popular prince Li Chengfeng.

"It doesn't matter who I am."

"It's just that we have to talk to your brother about the crime of helping to sell stolen goods."

Li Chengfeng carried Xichong and the young man and walked straight to the Daqin County government office.

The young man was shocked by Li Chengfeng's actions and seemed to realize the crisis he was about to face.

"This thing was done by me and has nothing to do with him. Come after me if you have the ability."

Xichong also begged Li Chengfeng for mercy.

"I beg you to let him go. He is doing this for the sake of the old man who is paralyzed in bed."

"If you want to kill or behead him, come at me. It was I who instructed him to steal."

Li Chengfeng raised his eyebrows slightly as he heard the two pleading with each other.

What do these two people mean? Are they pleading with each other?

But Li Chengfeng would not pay attention to their pleas.

After all, he took the two of them to the county government office not just to see them before an official.

The most important thing is that Li Chengfeng wants to see what the character of the Daqin County magistrate is like?

If the other party dares to protect his own family even when there are all the witnesses and physical evidence available, there will naturally be doubts about repairing the houses for the people.

After all, who can guarantee that he will use the money in a completely transparent manner and not take it away?

This not only determines whether the other party is using power for personal gain, but also tests how well the county magistrate performs his duties!
