Chapter 152: The Return

When Xiao Hao took Li Sinian to the Cao Governor's Mansion, the Cao family was in a mess, with debris, rags and tea all over the ground, and the people of the Cao Governor's Mansion were gone.

A woman with loose hair but extraordinary clothes ran out of the inner room barefoot, Xiao Hao and the others frowned when they saw this, in this era, women's feet are very private, that is only their husbands can see, if a woman's feet can be watched and played with at will, then the only possible identity of this woman is a prostitute in Goolan Courtyard.

The crazy woman looked at Xiao Hao, who was leading in armor, and Li Sinian and the others who were following him, as if she had received some stimulus, and suddenly rushed to Xiao Hao, grabbed Xiao Hao's arm, and shouted at Xiao Hao: "Where is my father-in-law?" Why do you want to arrest me? Give me back my father-in-law! Give it back! ”

Li Sinian gave a look, and the two little soldiers came out to pull away the crazy woman who was pestering Xiao Hao, and Li Sinian stepped forward and whispered in Xiao Hao's ear: "This should be the wife of Cao Zhifu, Sun, whose father is the son of the country, the priest of the wine grandson, this Lord Sun seems to have close contact with the second prince." ”

Li Sinian nodded almost inexplicably, and instructed Li Sinian: "Let the brothers go and find out what happened to this Cao Mansion." ”

There is a Cao prefect's mansion, and the house is so messy, which is not in line with common sense.

Li Sinian nodded, waved his hand, and went out with a few small soldiers.

When Sun saw Li Sinian leaving, he suddenly became even more crazy and began to struggle: "What are you going to do?" This is my home, you are not allowed to touch it, come back, come back to me! ”

Xiao Hao ignored Sun, just looked at a plaque engraved with a mirror hanging in the middle above the hall of Cao Zhifu, and then looked away without a trace.

After a while, Li Sinian came back with his subordinates, and whispered to Xiao Hao: "The Cao Governor's Mansion is not strict in governing the family, and this Sun family only cares about dressing up every day, there has already been a problem in the Cao Governor's Mansion, and even the deed of sale of the subordinates has not been kept well, and now the subordinates in the Mansion heard that something happened to the Cao Governor's Mansion, so they immediately stole the wealth of the main family and fled." ”

"Even the two concubines of the Cao Governor's Mansion ran away overnight with the money yesterday, and now there is only one master of the Sun family and two or three subordinates who have nowhere to go in the Cao Governor's Mansion."

Sun heard the vague words of concubine room and escape in Li Sinian's mouth, and immediately knew what they were talking about, Sun's head was chaotic, one moment it was the picture of Cao Zhifu quarreling with her for the Qian family, and the other time it was the picture of the subordinates running away in a hurry, and she couldn't stop it.

In the end, her helplessness turned into hatred for Cao Zhifu, and she shouted madly: "Hahahaha, you bastard, you deserve it, even if you usually pamper that little concubine?" Something happened, didn't she just take the money and run? Hahaha. Although Sun was laughing, she could still hear the sadness in her tone, because even now, she was still protecting the face of Cao Zhifu and did not shout Cao Zhifu's name in front of everyone.

Xiao Hao waved his hand, indicating that he knew, he looked at the crazy Sun, and said expressionlessly: "Press down." Sun was immediately taken away from the scene.

Xiao Hao took Li Sinian and others to the study of Cao Zhifu, but it was a little strange, they walked along the way, and the places they passed through were all messy, only this study was still clean and clean, and no one had entered it, Xiao Hao looked around in the study of Cao Zhifu, and directly ordered: "Search." ”

Li Sinian took people to start a serious search in the study of Cao Zhifu, and did not let go of any corner, while Xiao Hao looked at the little traces on the wall at the height, then reached out and touched it, and put it on the tip of his nose to smell it, this is a mud stain, Xiao Hao fell into deep thought.

This is the study of Cao Zhifu, ordinary people will not enter it, how can there be mud stains on this wall? It rained last night, unless someone took advantage of the chaos to enter the study of Cao Zhifu before last night and today, and then accidentally threw the mud stains onto the wall, and this person is likely to have martial arts, otherwise there is no way for him to throw the mud on such a high wall, unless he threw it out from the corner of his clothes when he jumped down from a height.

will come to Cao Zhifu's study when something happens, presumably to find out the evidence in Cao Zhifu's hands, but I don't know, which side will it be, but in Xiao Hao's opinion, it may be more likely that the second prince will be.

Just when Xiao Hao was still guessing, Li Sinian had already made a discovery, and he shouted at Xiao Hao: "My lord, here." ”

Xiao Hao came back to his senses and strode over to Li Sinian, Li Sinian pointed to a pen holder on the edge of Cao Zhifu's desk, and replied directly: "My lord, there is something wrong with this pen holder." ”

Xiao Hao took a closer look and found that compared with other pen holders on the table, there was actually no difference, it seemed that Cao Zhifu still had a bit of intelligence, and he did not make this mysterious pen holder too luxurious or simple.

Xiao Hao twisted the pen holder slightly, the wall behind it was opened, and a small box appeared, Xiao Hao took a few steps forward to open it, and after seeing the contents of the box, his pupils shrank suddenly, Xiao Hao gave Li Sinian a look, Li Sinian immediately understood, and put the wooden box into his arms.

Subsequently, Xiao Hao and his entourage left Cao Zhifu's mansion.

It's getting dark, Xiao Mansion.

Xiao Hao sat quietly at the table, unfolding the pieces of letter paper on the table, and half of Xiao Hao's face flickered and disappeared under the light of the candlelight.

It wasn't until he finished reading the last letter that Xiao Hao raised his head without any change in his expression.

Then Xiao Hao whistled outside the house, and a man in black suddenly appeared in the room, kneeling respectfully on the ground without making any sound.

Xiao Hao sorted out all the things in his hand, and said to the man in black coldly: "Send all these things to the Prince's Mansion, and no accidents will be allowed." ”

The man in black nodded respectfully at Xiao Hao, and then disappeared in place.

Not long after the man in black disappeared, there was a sudden knock on the door, Xiao Hao's eyes lit up, he looked out of the door, and asked in a deep voice, "Who?" ”

"It's me, the head of the house." The butler's voice came from outside the door.

Xiao Hao's eyes were not as sharp as they were at the beginning: "Come in." ”

After the housekeeper came in, he made a gesture to Xiao Hao: "Family master, the new Song account room in the mansion wants to see you." ”

Xiao Hao was a little surprised, but he didn't refuse directly, but asked, "Does he have anything?" ”

The housekeeper replied respectfully: "The Song account room is to see you, so I will stay in the mansion to do the account room, and the lady promised the Song account room to let him see you." ”

Xiao Hao heard the housekeeper's words, thought of his own lady, looked at the darkness outside the window, and asked the housekeeper: "Where is the lady?" Have you eaten? ”

"No, Madame took a nap and rested in the afternoon, and now she has just gotten up, and she should still be grooming."

Xiao Hao thought about it, and promised the lady that she would go back early today, and wanted to accompany her own lady to have dinner together, looking at the current situation, she still had a little time left, since the lady promised that Song Accounts would let him see me, then see me.

So Xiao Hao nodded to the housekeeper: "Then let him in." ”

With the consent of the master, the housekeeper brought the Song account room in, and then turned around and left, not forgetting to close the door before leaving.

Song Ledger stood in front of Xiao Hao and saluted Xiao Hao, Xiao Hao said lightly: "Get up." ”

Song got up at this time, looking at Xiao Hao with complicated eyes, with some scrutiny.

Xiao Hao's eyes on the Song account room felt very twisted, so he frowned: "Do you have something?" ”

Song Ledger noticed his faux pas, but he didn't look away, knelt straight down at Xiao Hao, slammed his head on the ground, and made a "bang" sound.

Xiao Hao was shocked by Song Ledger's sudden behavior, and then his brows furrowed even tighter, and he said seriously: "You can tell me something directly, you don't have to make such a big gift." ”

Song Shufang took a deep breath as if he had made up his mind, and then raised his head, a red mark had been knocked out on his forehead, he didn't care, he stared straight at Xiao Hao's eyes, and said to Xiao Hao seriously: "Lord Xiao, the villain has something very important to report to you, and this matter is related to your identity." ”

Xiao Hao's eyes suddenly sharpened: "What do you want to say?" ”

Song Shufang looked at Xiao Hao, with a resoluteness in his eyes that could not be ignored.

The sky had been completely pressed, and the candle in a corner of the room burned the last section of the wick in the flickering light, and the night hit Xiao Hao's side face, forming a black and white yin and yang face, but the look on his face was even more frightening at the moment.

The sound of talking in the room had long since stopped, but Xiao Hao had not spoken again, and the focus of his eyes was not on the Song account room kneeling in front of him, but was dull.

After a long time, Xiao Hao came back to his senses and asked Song Ledger: "What you said is true?" ”

Song Ledger nodded: "The villain can swear with his life, everything the villain said is true, and there is no half-truth." ”

There was silence in the room again.

After dozens of breaths, Xiao Hao spoke up, and his voice was still a little hoarse: "I know, you go down first, I want to think again." ”

Song Ledger respectfully bowed to Xiao Hao and gently withdrew.

Xiao Hao pinched his eyebrows, feeling a little headache, the truth he had been pursuing for this time had now been placed in front of him in a daze, and until now, he felt a sense of unreality.

But when everything is put together, all the logic makes sense.

Xiao Hao clenched his fists and looked straight in the direction of the capital.
