Lady Li replied: "It has indeed been exchanged long ago."
"Does the mansion have any silver left?"
"No."
"I'll ask you again, is there any silver left in your house?"
Madam Li calmly replied, "No."
Magistrate Wang asked, "What if there is?"
Madam Li's face quickly turned cold.
After all, she was the wife of a third-rank official in the imperial court.
Belong to the superior people.
But now he was being questioned like a criminal by a seventh-rank county magistrate.
The anger in my heart was instantly aroused.
She pointed at the Cao Mansion behind her and said coldly: "If you don't believe it, you can search the mansion!"
Magistrate Wang waved his hands happily and said, "Did you hear that? Madam Li asked you to search the mansion! Why don't you go now?"
"Yes!" The soldiers outside the door immediately stepped forward, intending to rush into the mansion to search.
Mrs. Li was stunned.
She didn't expect that a small seventh-rank county magistrate would dare to order soldiers to search the residence of a third-rank official.
How can this be possible?
She shouted angrily, "How dare you! This is the residence of the third-rank official of the imperial court, the right assistant minister of the Nanjing Ministry of War! How can we allow you to act rashly? Why don't you leave now!"
After hesitating for a moment, the soldiers did not stop, but rushed in at an accelerated speed.
They are just following orders, and their superiors will support them even if the sky falls.
But if you go too late, you won't be able to reap the benefits.
Madam Li became even angrier upon seeing this. She immediately ordered Cao Wang and a group of servants to block the door and prevent the soldiers from entering.
The soldiers didn't care about that and drew their swords.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.
The people watching around were all stunned.
The Nanjing Minister of War is roughly equivalent to the current Deputy Minister of Defense.
A group of soldiers armed with weapons stormed the home of the Deputy Minister of Defense.
It was hard not to be shocked.
"Sir, what should we do?" asked the leading general.
"What should we do?" Magistrate Wang sneered, "Public affairs will be handled impartially! Anyone who dares to stop us will be killed without mercy!"
Following Magistrate Wang's order, many servants in the Cao mansion were killed or injured.
