County Magistrate Zhou continued to speak, his eyes peeking at Tuoba Jing's face.

However, with his level of intelligence, how could he see through Tuoba Jing's feelings?

Tuoba Jing's lips curled up into a smile. He thought that his silver had taken effect, and slowly turned to action, then continued: "I don't know what Seventh Prince's appetite is, it's just that I must still remember this favor Seventh Prince has given me. In fact, in the end, we are still a family! "

"Oh? "Family?" This time, Tuoba Jing was serious. If this was really someone that belonged to Su Moyun —

He had to deal with this disaster thoroughly, so as to not delay Moyun's future.

"The time for Seventh Prince to marry the young miss of the Prime Minister's Residence is just around the corner, the young official is also pleasantly surprised, I can only brazenly think of asking the Prime Minister's in-laws for a drink!"

Thinking about it, because he had not read for a few days, County Magistrate Zhou started to panic, and started to randomly use the idiom, regardless of its meaning, he will first explain it before mentioning it.

As County Magistrate Zhou said this, he straightened his waist and muttered to himself non-stop: "This official is unfortunate, he is the younger brother-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

"It seems that all your silver has been given to the Prime Minister's Estate." Tuoba Jing sneered, he picked up the silver notes on the table and flicked it a few times, looking extremely serious.

Although she did not know where the rumors came from, if Su Moyun heard the rumors and ignored them, wouldn't he not be able to explain her wrongdoings?

It wasn't easy for him to get closer to Su Moyun, so what was the Prime Minister's Palace doing here?

In an instant, the loathing towards the Prime Minister's residence in Tuoba Jing's heart rose to another level.

"Seventh Prince has misunderstood, how can I have any silver? "He's just a good official with two sleeves and a light breeze. Even when you see my official uniform, you still see that it's worn out!" County Magistrate Zhou stood up and pointed to a patch on his knee, he did not know if it was just put in, but it was a bit out of place on the brand-new official uniform.

Only County Magistrate Zhou felt that he could hide it like this.

Tuoba Jing unhurriedly poured himself a cup of tea and lightly sipped on it. He raised his eyes to look at the extremely proud County Magistrate Zhou and said softly: "Did I wake you up?"

It was clearly just a few light words, and Tuoba Jing was even smiling, but for some reason, County Magistrate Zhou felt a chill behind his back, and did not dare to say a single word. With a thump, he kneeled onto the ground, and lowered his head, unable to squeeze out a single word.

"Tell me, where did all the money you've collected over the years go?" Three years in Qingzhi County, a hundred thousand taels of snow silver. It was easy to get some money when one was seated on an official's seat.

If he knew how to restrain himself, then it would be fine, but some people were greedy and would need more silver after that, so he actually planned on stocking up on starvation. In the end, he managed to lure Tuoba Jing, the God of Slaughter, over.

"How can I have any silver!" This little official's days are as clear as water. Forget about silver, I don't even have rice to drink from a porridge. I am so poor that even the sound of tinkling water could be heard. If he really told Tuoba Jing about the location of the silver, he would be dead for sure, the people in the Prime Minister's residence would definitely not let him off.

Tuoba Jing smiled and nodded, he extended his hand and grabbed the teacup, and the teacup immediately broke.

He held the broken piece in front of his eyes for a few moments, then lowered his head to look at County Magistrate Zhou who was on the ground, and softly asked. "I'll give you one more chance.

Tuoba Jing never requested for evidence before, even if it involved the Prime Minister, he would report it directly to the Emperor when he returned. As for what the Emperor was going to do, that was up to the Emperor.

Actually, he understood that it was all because of the Emperor that a prince like him was sent to do such a thing in order to chase him out of the Imperial City.

After all, in these sorts of matters, it was fine to send a general, not too big, to capture this greedy official and bring him back.

This time, he had clearly sent Tuoba Jing over, and the only thing that nearly appeared on his face was that he was going to attack Su Moyun.

But even if Tuoba Jing knew about this, he still followed the decree and came to this small county.

No matter what, there were a lot of things that Su Moyun would have to face in the future. She was never a woman who would hide under his protection, so there was no need for him to do so many things to arouse Su Moyun's displeasure.

Although he said that, in truth, Tuoba Jing was still a little worried. Before leaving, he had only grabbed onto Tuoba Han's instructions, and only did it as a last resort, in order to get him to return.

"Where's the money, Seventh Prince Mo —" This time, County Magistrate Zhou did not even finish his sentence. He only felt a sharp pain in his throat, and the following words were filled with gurgling sounds.

His vision went black and his heart was filled with endless regret.

If he had known that he would die because of this, he would never have kept these things a secret! Even if it was something he shouldn't have said, he would have said it!

"Now, who can tell me where County Magistrate Zhou's silver went to?"

County Magistrate Zhou's corpse on the ground was bleeding non-stop, and a white teacup fragment was lying on the side with blood all over, making the blood even redder.

Everyone present could not help but tremble in fear.

In order to kill an official ordered by the imperial government at such a time, they had to do so in accordance with the rules and regulations. They had to report it to the government first before mentioning anything else.

This Tuoba Jing did not have an imperial edict, nor did he have a treasured sword. He only had a broken teacup in his hand and killed him immediately.

Seeing that no one answered his question, Tuoba Jing could not help but frown. "I don't like to ask you twice."

"I don't like to say it a second time." Tuoba Han saw that the Old Mistress was still hesitating and almost laughed out of anger.

As long as the old mistress transferred the least bit of bias towards Su Yusui to Su Moyun, Su Moyun would not have such a position. She would probably already be married to her own Royal Uncle, so how would she be framed?

To put it another way, if the old lady was truly interested in Su Moyun, how could she be placed such a thing in Su Moyun's courtyard?

At the end of the day, this old lady did not necessarily say that she loved Su Moyun.

"Royal Aunt, I think it's better if you just burn this box. This old lady is not willing to invite anyone else as well. Tuoba Han turned to look at Su Moyun who was beside him, and continued speaking.

Su Moyun only pursed her lips into a smile, and did not say much as she stared at the old lady innocently.
