Chapter Twenty-Nine: No Thieves in the Daylight

For the third time, the steward of the clan had cleared the treasury from scratch, and rows of wooden shelves were stacked with gold and silver. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 The shelves at the info door are already empty, and they were taken by the grandfather for auction. But the gold on the remaining three rows of shelves is not right.

The steward wiped the sweat from his head, took the ledger and scales, and began to read it a fourth time.

"By the way, this is it!" the steward patted his head, "how is this possible? It was the treasury that had just been cleared in the morning, but by the time the accounts were cleared in the afternoon, there were 100 taels of gold missing? That's ten little yellow croakers!"

The housekeeper cautiously closed the door of the treasury and went to find Jiang Cheng.

The treasury was soon surrounded by heavy troops, Jiang Cheng's expression was very cautious, this is the treasury of Zong Wei, the general staff of the North China Military Region, and the treasury was stolen? This is the first time this kind of thing has happened, either he is really a bold and skilled thief, or it is his own people's hands and feet.

He believes in the steward very much, the steward is the person brought by Zong Wei, and he has been following Zong Wei, and he only came to the house in Beiping when he was old, so he regarded it as a pension.

If the key to the steward is not separated from him, then it can't be him.

The only one left who has the key is the grandmaster.

Jiang Cheng carefully inspected the inside and outside of the treasury, and there was no trace of who the person who took the gold was.

Could it be that the grandmaster came to get it himself?

Jiang Cheng scratched his head and told the steward what he thought, and the steward was also curious, so he planned to go over and ask the master himself.

That foreign woman had just left the Sect's Mansion, and now there should be no guests on the Sect's side.

Zong Wei was sitting on the sofa, there was a person standing opposite him with his backlight, Zong Wei himself had been looking at that back for a long time, neither of them spoke, and the tea on the table was already cold.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Master, it's me, there is something in the treasury, I want to ask you. "It's the steward out there.

Zong Wei raised his eyebrows and whispered, "Go open the door, otherwise you may not be able to leave today." ”

Lu Hexi smiled slightly, walked to the door gracefully, and opened the door gently.

The steward was a little stunned, the foreign woman had just left, why was there another person in this grandmaster's room? He looked at the woman in front of him a lot, obviously the soft almond eyes were carved out by the bright eyes, the dark eyelashes were as smart as the wings of a butterfly, and the crimson eye shadow was very enchanting and moving.

Her lips are bright red rouge, and her already beautiful diamond lips are even more delicate.

Her hair was tucked up with a delicate headdress, and her dark blue high-waisted lace dress framed her slender waist, making her look more slender and straight.

The housekeeper was stunned by the noble and bright girl in front of him for a few seconds, the old man will look at the eyes first, the housekeeper thinks that although this girl is dressed up bewitchingly, the eyes are pure and clean, the housekeeper likes this little girl very much, because the eyes are clean, it must be a good child.

"Girl?"

"Hello, I'm here to talk to Mr. Zong about something, my surname is Lu. Lu Hexi stretched out his hand and smiled respectfully at the old housekeeper, there was no difference in etiquette.

The old steward pondered in his heart, this girl is good, but the front door has not notified this girl of visiting, could it be that she was smuggled in by the grandfather and didn't want the people in the courtyard to know?

The old steward also shook hands and asked, "Girl, I don't know if my grandmaster is ......."

"I'm in there. Zong Wei spoke behind the screen, "I have something to discuss with Miss Lu, and the treasury will not say it in advance." You go down first. Zong Wei's tone was very flat, and the old steward responded, and he heard a little joy from Zong Wei's tone.

He laughed twice and said to Lu Hexi: "Girl, let's talk to Grandmaster, and say hello if you need anything." ”

This girl is good, and she is a good match for the grandmaster.

Lu Hexi closed the door, slowly walked behind the screen, and looked at Zong Wei sitting on the sofa with a smile.

"I really can't imagine it, I've always felt that the beauty trick is too inferior, and I don't want to use it, I didn't expect it to be so easy to use. She lay beside Zong Wei and reached out to pinch Zong Wei's face, "It's just a matter of dressing up, you actually let down your guard against me, you really deserve it!"

Zong Wei sat in a very upright posture, with his hands behind his back, his waist straight, and he had a smile on his face, but a little sweat flowed down his forehead.

"Do you really think you're suitable for this?"

Zong Wei asked rhetorically, he didn't dare to move, there were more than a dozen blue long needles on the back of the sofa behind him, his hands were tied, and two needles were inserted in his legs, his legs were numb now, and he was about to lose consciousness. But his gaze swept across Lu Hexi's whole body like a knife, "Your bean sprout-like figure is not qualified to use beauty tricks, you have seen the woman who came to me this morning, that kind of beauty trick is only useful for men." ”

Lu Hexi reached out and touched the corner of Zong Wei's lips, and his white fingers were dyed with bright red dankou. "Whether it is useful or not, your current state is proof of it. Lu Hexi shook his finger and said, "The famous Zongshen, just by being kissed by me, he can relax his vigilance and be easily restrained, which shows that my beauty trick is very useful." ”

Zong Wei smiled bitterly, he didn't know what was wrong, as soon as he opened the window, he saw her standing outside in full costume, with a shy pink on her delicate face, before she could speak, Yin Hong's beautiful red lips came up, the soft touch and fragrant taste made him addicted for a while, and his hands involuntarily supported the girl's thin waist, and carried her to her lap and sit. It wasn't until his legs hurt that he realized that he had been restrained by the cute girl and couldn't move.

This beauty trick still succeeded in the end.

Lu Hexi kicked the high heels on his face, yawned and jumped on the sofa, sitting cross-legged.

"Yes, I didn't expect you to be so tasteful. She pointed to the tea soup on the table, "This is the way the nobles drank tea in the Tang Dynasty, I didn't expect that there are still people in your house who can make tea." As she spoke, she poured herself a cup and slowly sipped the tea that had cooled.

Even if she said it very well, Lu Hexi still couldn't drink this strange-tasting boiled tea, she frowned, put down the cup, and poured herself a glass of white water.

Zong Wei felt funny when he looked at her frowning little face and sad face, he really couldn't connect the person in front of him with the agent who killed people without blinking. He looked at the girl's red lips, remembered the kiss again, and suddenly found that his heart was a little hot.

Lu Hexi finished drinking the water before he said to Zong Wei: "Don't blame me for Zong Shen, I have revenge, after all, Zong Shen can kill me two days ago!"
