Chapter 546: Untitled
said that Qiu Yun flew to the 'summons', and followed the waiter all the way to the door of the flower hall.
"Wait, my lord, let the slave and maid go in and report it."
The waiter explained, bowed over and opened the Hunan curtain through a gap, dodged and squeezed in, and after a while, he opened the door curtain from the inside and asked Qiu Yunfei to clean up.
Qiu Yunfei hurriedly lifted the package, walked into the flower hall with a small step, and bowed and said, "Qiu Yunfei knocks on His Highness Wan'an." β
"No courtesy, flat body."
The prince took a hand from his father-in-law, and Qiu Yunfei was about to get up, but suddenly smelled a smell of urine, wrinkled his nose unconsciously, and looked left and right suspiciously.
"What are you looking at?"
Sun Shaozong saw Qiu Yunfei shrug his nose vigorously, for fear that he would accidentally anger the prince, so he hurriedly asked: "Didn't you say that there are 100,000 urgent things to report to this official?" β
As soon as he heard Sun Shaozong mention the matter, Qiu Yunfei hurriedly spread the package on the ground, took out the piece of Tongling Jade from his sleeve, and then told the story of discovering this thing.
"According to the results of the inquest at the scene, the ashes inside the incense burner should have been rice paper on which the words were written, but unfortunately it was destroyed by fire......
"Qiu Qing's family."
Without waiting for Qiu Yunfei to finish speaking, the prince couldn't help but be curious: "This ash is burned so thoroughly, how do you know that there was once a word written on it?" β
"Back to Your Highness."
Qiu Yunfei pointed to the dust in the incense burner and explained: "When I first found it, there were still some lumpy paper ashes in the lower layer, although they were all burnt, but they could still vaguely identify the poor - that is, the color was different, so I concluded that there was handwriting on it. β
As he spoke, he spread his hands again and said helplessly: "It's a pity that those paper ashes are only like fingernails at the most, and they are not connected to each other, so I really can't distinguish what is written on them." β
He was annoyed here, but the prince praised him repeatedly, boasting that there were no weak soldiers under the strong generals.
"Your Highness has praised it."
Sun Shaozong casually humbled Qiu Yunfei, but his eyes fell on the piece of jade - whatever was written on the paper ash is now unverifiable, so the major clues found by Qiu Yunfei must be related to this piece of jade.
At this time, Qiu Yunfei sold enough passes, and finally changed his words, holding up the piece of Tongling Jade and said: "Fortunately, the humble office is still in the mezzanine of this incense burner, and found a piece of Tongling Jade engraved with twenty-four words, and more coincidentally, this piece of jade ......"
"Show me."
Sun Shaozong suddenly interrupted his words, and couldn't help but say that he stepped forward to pass the piece of white marble, and commented seriously: "The texture is delicate and warm, and the whole body is transparent and flawless, although it is not a rare treasure, but it is also a rare thing for ordinary people - but a few words engraved on it are crooked, but it seems to be the handwriting of a layman." β
The prince listened to it later, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.
But when Qiu Yunfei heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, he and Jia Baoyu were just general friends, and they could think of the words engraved on it, which were the same as the one next to Jia Baoyu, and Sun Shaozong, who had an in-law relationship with Rongguo Mansion, but how could he not know this thing?
"Your ......, my lord"
He was about to ask a question, when he saw Sun Shaozong hand over a sharp look, although it was silent, it was full of the word 'shut up'.
I heard Sun Shaozong rubbing the jade again, and tasted it: "But around this jade, there are traces of re-polishing, I think it was once inlaid on some utensils, and then it was taken off - but whether it is inlaid or re-polished, it is not something that a layman can do." β
"Since it was entrusted to a jewelry company, the inscription is so unfamiliar and awkward, it is obvious that the person who engraved the word does not want to fake his hand - there must be some allusion in this."
"What's more, with the secrecy of this treasure, if you can find the source along the way, it should help solve the case."
Qiu Yunfei really didn't see this - the main reason was that when he saw the twenty-four words there, all he was thinking about was Rongguo Mansion, how could he take a closer look?
Subconsciously wanted to ask for the jade, and then looked at it carefully, but Sun Shaozong had already put it in his pocket, turned his head and arched his hand to the prince: "Your Highness, this case involves seven lives, and it really can't be delayed - please let Rong Chen and Qiu Jian Xiao retire first." β
The prince actually wanted to take the opportunity to get closer to the enemy, but seeing Sun Shaozong's righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, he really couldn't think of a reason to stop him, so he had to watch the two go away.
Not to mention how the prince went to the inner courtyard to change his pants.
But Qiu Yunfei followed Sun Shaozong out of the flower hall, and when he saw that there was no one left and right, he couldn't help but step forward and whispered: "My lord, the words engraved on the jade ......?"
"It's the same as Brother Bao's, right?"
In fact, when he heard the name of 'Tongling Baoyu', Qiu Yunfei deliberately emphasized that there were twenty-four words engraved on it, and Sun Shaozong had already thought of Jia Baoyu's head, and this was the reason why he stopped Qiu Yunfei and didn't let Qiu Yunfei continue to speak.
Sun Shaozong didn't squint, and while continuing to walk forward, he whispered as if nothing happened: "Because of this, I don't dare to let you tell you everythingβdon't forget, the eldest lady of Rongguo Mansion now lives in Jingren Palace." β
How do you live in Jingren Palace?
Qiu Yunfei pondered in wonder, and it wasn't until he walked dozens of steps away that he figured out where the joints of this matter were, and couldn't help blurting out: "Could it be that the prince has a grudge against His Majesty's choice of a concubine to prepare for pregnancy?!" β
"What are you yelling about!"
Sun Shaozong glared back at him, neither affirming nor denying it.
Qiu Yunfei shrunk his neck, and didn't dare to speak for a while, until he left the gate of the Prince's Mansion, then he let out a bad breath, and then thanked Sun Shaozong with a smile.
Since the crown prince is resentful about Emperor Guangde's selection of a concubine to prepare for pregnancy, he really knows that this murder case is related to Concubine Xiande's own brother, and I am afraid that he will never let it go easily.
At that time, no matter what the final result is, the enemy family will inevitably have a bad relationship with the Rongguo Mansion - if you are not careful, the virtuous concubine moves out of Jingren Palace, it will be a mortal enemy that cannot be solved!
"The villain Qiu Yi has seen Lord Sun."
"Villain ......"
"Little ......"
At this time, the four generals who were outside the door had already greeted them, and they all faux pleases Sun Shaozong, leaving Qiu Yunfei, the young master, aside.
This respect is not for Sun Shaozong's official position, but for his title as the first fierce general in Beijing.
Fortunately, Qiu Yunfei was glad that he escaped the catastrophe - Rongguo Mansion may not be able to do anything to him, but his own Laozi's whip has always been unwilling to be merciful - so he didn't care about these trivial matters, and only waited for Qiu Yi and others to finish their courtesy, and then asked Sun Shaozong for instructions on the next steps.
Sun Shaozong rubbed the piece of Tongling Jade, and silently muttered for a long time, and then said: "Let's go, let's go to Rongguo Mansion first." β
The appearance and appearance of this jade are actually quite different from Jia Baoyu's, but with only those twenty-four words, it is worth going to Rongguo Mansion for a visit.
