The entire court was confused and seemed unable to react.
Wei Zheng handed over his hand again: "Your Majesty"
"No need to say more, just follow Mr. Zhao's wishes."
Zhao Chen is happy, Lao Li is so interesting.
He was also unceremonious: "Come on, don't hide in the crowd and shoot cold arrows. If you have the ability and courage, come out and challenge me. Let you see if I am truly talented."
Wei Zheng frowned, but His Majesty already agreed, so he couldn't back down.
The ministers all fell silent.
Zhao Chen looked around at the officials: "Isn't it right? Is this the level of the officials of the Tang Dynasty? Are there none who can fight?"
Wow!
Once the map cannon was fired, not only the civil servants, but also some military generals stared, as if Yuchi Gong was about to swallow Zhao Chen.
"Old Hei, why are you glaring? Mr. Zhao is really talented and learned, and he is not mocking you."
Cheng Yaojin said directly from the side.
Yuchi Gong scratched his head: "No?"
"You are stupid, don't worry, Mr. Zhao and I have a very good relationship, I will take you out for dinner next time."
Cheng Yaojin laughed.
As for the civil servant team, Changsun Wuji narrowed his eyes. If His Majesty hadn't given him a letter before, he would have wanted to stand up and take the exam for Zhao Chen.
What kind of courage do you have to face the officials of the Tang Dynasty alone?
Wei Zheng spoke directly: "In that case, I'll speak first. I wonder if you have heard about the theft of Chang'an disaster relief officer's silver."
"I've heard of it."
Li Shimin told him this, of course he knew about it, and he was the one who pointed out the direction of the investigation.
"Dali Temple has been investigating this case for several days, but it has not been solved yet. In that case, how about you solve the case?"
Wow!
The minister of the DPRK was shocked again.
But then, many people¡¯s eyes lit up. This case was too difficult. Dali Temple has not yet found out the whereabouts of Guan Yin. Can he, an ordinary person, find it out?
Cheng Yaojin had some worry in his eyes. As soon as Wei Zheng opened his mouth, he really wanted to drive Zhao Chen out of the court.
Li Shimin also frowned, but Zhao Chen smiled and said, "Okay."
Wei Zheng snorted coldly: "In that case, let's agree on a date, just ten days. Within ten days, if you can solve the case, I will ignore you from now on. But if you can't solve it, you will leave the court on your own."
Zhao Chen smiled broadly; "It's easy to say, but I won, so you have to bow and apologize to me."
Wei Zheng¡¯s face turned pale: ¡°Okay!¡±
Seeing the bet made by both parties, some officials looked happy.
"You are so overestimating your capabilities. Do you really want to take this case?"
Zhao Chen directly handed over his hand: "Your Majesty, I would like to request an investigation and ask Dali Temple officials to assist me."
Li Shimin said directly: "Yes."
Zhao Chen turned around and left without saying a word: "Whoever is in charge of Dali Temple, please follow me."
When Zhao Chen left the hall, the discussion started.
"This person is really overconfident. He really dares to bet that I don't think it is possible to find out the case within ten days."
"It's absolutely impossible. Dali Temple has been investigating for several days, and it's an all-out investigation. How can he solve the case if he doesn't understand anything."
After leaving the main hall, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple followed Zhao Chen. After Dai Zhou died, the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple was promoted from below. He was an official named Xin Mao, but he should only hold this position temporarily. He would be promoted later. Will be replaced.
During the Zhenguan period, positions were transferred very frequently. For example, Li Jing served as Minister of the Ministry of War, and then as Minister Youpu She. This position was the prime minister.
Xin Mao followed Zhao Chen out. Before Zhao Chen could speak, he said, "Mr. Zhao, your bet is unwise. This case is currently the number one unsolved case in our Dali Temple. It is too difficult."
"It's okay, tell me the details of the case file. Dahuang."
While he was talking, Zhao Chen called Dahuang, and Dahuang got off the carriage and followed Zhao Chen.
After that, Zhao Chen got directly into Xin Mao¡¯s carriage and headed to Dali Temple together.
On the way, Xin Mao explained the situation, and it was exactly what Li Shimin said before. There were no doubts on the road, but the official silver seemed to have evaporated out of thin air.
After several days of investigation, they turned to the people transporting official banknotes and detained them all.In Dali Temple, they were tried one by one, but unfortunately there was no result.
"Mr. Zhao, this is what happened. We are stuck at this step. There are more than twenty soldiers transporting official silver, and there is even a sixth-grade general. We don't dare to mess around."
Zhao Chen nodded: "I understand, don't worry, wait until I go over and ask."
When we arrived at Dali Temple, the rest of the people in Dali Temple were all frowning.
Xin Mao said directly: "Everyone, Mr. Zhao is here to check the disaster relief officer's bank case and take out the file."
The officials at Dali Temple looked up in surprise and shook their heads again when they saw that it was just a young man who came.
But you still have to take out what should be taken out. Take out all the files and show them to Zhao Chen.
While Zhao Chen was reading the file, some officials gathered around Xin Mao.
"Sir, who is this?"
"That's right, sir, what kind of case can you investigate at such a young age?"
"I can't see it."
Xin Mao whispered the situation in the court. The officials were all surprised and then shook their heads even more.
"It can't be broken, it's too confusing, why bother gambling."
"We are trying to crack this case, but we don't know where the remaining official silver has gone."
"He definitely can't."
Those officials had no intention of targeting Zhao Chen, but only they knew how difficult this case was.
After reading the file, Zhao Chen stood up and said, "I'm going to meet all the soldiers who were imprisoned."
Xin Mao nodded and asked the jailer to take Zhao Chen in.
"Dahuang, follow up."
"Woof!"
Dahuang called out, followed Zhao Chen, and entered the prison directly.
The officials around him were even more speechless. Why were they bringing a dog with them during this investigation?
When we arrived at the prison, each of the soldiers was being held with lifeless expressions. If this matter was not resolved, it was very likely that every one of them would be buried with him.
Xin Mao also wanted to see how Zhao Chen solved the problem, but what he didn't expect was that Zhao Chen directly let the dog in to smell the smell of the prisoners.
"Rhubarb, go."
Rhubarb went in and smelled it, then came out.
In every prison, Zhao Chen asked Dahuang to do this.
The other officials were even more confused and had no idea what Zhao Chen was doing.
After hearing it, Zhao Chen said directly: "Where was the remaining official silver at that time?"
"All are detained in Dali Temple."
"Show me."
Following Xin Mao, there were more than a dozen boxes placed in the empty room.
When I opened it, I saw that it was all heavy official silver.
"Rhubarb."
Rhubarb went up wagging his tail and smelled it with his nose.
Zhao Chen also carefully checked and touched it with his hands. After careful inspection, he found a kind of residual powder in some half-empty treasure boxes.
"Interesting, sodium metal?"
Zhao Chen narrowed his eyes. There was no metallic sodium in the Tang Dynasty. Metallic sodium needed to be refined with salt, then filtered out as sodium chloride, and then decomposed using electricity.
However, there is one profession that may or may not be able to do it, and that is Taoist priests. Taoist priests pursue immortality. Not only do they make elixirs, but they also inadvertently invent gunpowder. They can try all kinds of weird things, and they are very likely to mess around randomly. Sodium metal was produced.
The appearance of metallic sodium is very similar to silver, and it is very light. It reacts with water and disappears without a trace. As a result, the so-called silver has disappeared, and naturally it cannot be found no matter how much you look for it. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
