Xiao Qing and Five Ghosts Stealing Silver from Treasury
Xiao Qing and Wu Gui sneaked into the county government office and found the bank's location. They found that the bank was tightly guarded and had three layers of precautions.The first floor is the outer courtyard, which is guarded by several shifts of government officials.The second floor is the middle courtyard, guarded by several ferocious hounds.The third floor is the inner courtyard, which is equipped with a password turn lock. If you change the wrong password, you will be trapped by the mechanism.Xiaoqing and Wugui worked together and finally broke through the defense and entered the bank.Xiao Qing, who originally just wanted to get back the money Xu Xian paid, looked at the box full of silver in front of him and felt that he should give these ill-gotten gains to the poor people.So Xiaoqing stole a large bag of silver.If it weren't for the small baggage she was carrying, she would have taken more.The next day when the county magistrate was checking the account, he found that the money had been stolen. He was furious and not only strengthened his previous vigilance.People were also deployed in the bank to catch the thieves.Unexpectedly, Xiaoqing succeeded again.The county magistrate ordered the guards to describe the appearance of the thief, but instead got a picture of the suspect with his face covered.The angry county magistrate slapped all the guards with a big stick.For a time, rumors spread in Zhenjiang City, making the people panic, and no one paid the Dragon King Tax anymore.The county magistrate had no choice but to go to Hangzhou Prefecture to borrow people.Xu Xian's brother-in-law Chen Biao, as the chief police officer of Hangzhou Prefecture, was sent to Zhenjiang to help solve the case.Chen Biao and Xu Xian met.Xu Xian introduced Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing to his brother-in-law.Chen Biao was very happy when he saw that his younger siblings were beautiful and virtuous, and helped Xu Xian run Baohe Hall smoothly. He sent someone to send a message to Xu Jiaorong to reassure her that everything would be at ease.In order to establish his prestige, Chen Biao, who had just arrived, boasted many of his glorious achievements to everyone.Xiao Qing decided to test Chen Biao's skills secretly, but all of them were resolved one by one due to chance.Xiao Qing will not be able to figure out the details of Chen Biao for a while, and dare not underestimate him.Because the government officials were injured by the county magistrate, they needed to go to Baohe Hall to get their medicines changed.Baohe HallIt became a base camp for everyone to exchange experiences on catching thieves and make combat arrangements.Chen Biao made a promise to all the government officials that the thief would be caught this time.Chen Biao assigned work to all the government officials and laid a dragnet, just waiting for the thieves to commit crimes again.Little did he know that all his careful arrangements were overheard by the five ghosts and they went to tell Xiaoqing.Xiaoqing also planned countermeasures with the Five Ghosts to prepare for the next operation of stealing money from the treasury.While the two were investigating the terrain, they were discovered by Fa Hai, who came to Zhenjiang to track down Frog Face's whereabouts.Fa Hai saw the two men's strange whereabouts and became suspicious, so he began to secretly follow and check Xiao Qing.
