"Brother, it's not as simple as you think," Wang Tianmu's face suddenly became serious, "The seat has long found out that there are fakes in the goods that have been shipped over the previous batches, and this time I sent you here to find out who dropped the bag." ”

I see!

Geng Chaozhong suddenly realized, it seems that this mission is a lot boring!

"According to what you say, eighty percent of the treasures I asked to escort now are also fakes?" Geng Chaozhong asked.

"Yes, it's very likely, just like this snuff box I got in my hand," Wang Tianmu picked up the snuff box he had just held in his hand from the kang and handed it to Geng Chaozhong, "Look at it, this thing is real or fake." ”

Geng Chaozhong took the snuffbox and looked at it carefully, seeing that this thing was crystal clear and exquisitely made, but whether it was true or not, it was really impossible to figure out the doorway.

After looking at it for a long time, Geng Chaozhong finally handed the snuffbox back, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Tianmu, the younger brother doesn't know anything about this, and you are no different from asking Yu Blind." ”

"Fake," Wang Tianmu laughed, it was not difficult for Geng Chaozhong, but there was a little coldness in his eyes, "This snuff bottle was picked out from the previous batches of goods shipped to Nanjing, fortunately, I found an expert before sending it, or if I really sent it, it would be a loss to the adult!" “

Geng Chaozhong also smiled, Wang Tianmu picked out a few fine products from the goods to give away, and he was greedy for ink seriously, but Wang Tianmu was able to tell himself about this matter, which showed his trust, and he couldn't help but be slightly moved in his heart, and said:

"Brother Tianmu, I can come out this time, the eldest brother has contributed a lot, and I am really ...... the younger brother"

"My own brother, what do you say!" Wang Tianmu waved his hand and interrupted Geng Chaozhong's words of gratitude, "If you want me to say, it is still the group of dead eunuchs who are the most suspicious, the group of dead eunuchs in the palace, when the emperor of the previous dynasty was still there, they began to steal things and go out to resell, and then make a fake object outside and go back to fool people, how do you think the Liulichang street outside the Peace Gate came from?" ”

Liulichang Street, even in later generations is also very famous, the earliest, but it is the Qing Palace eunuchs to sell the Forbidden City cultural relics, there are a lot of shopkeepers, in fact, are the palace eunuchs!

After so many years, who knows how much of what is left in the palace is real!

"Besides," Wang Tianmu's voice suddenly lowered, "The seat is a particular person, fake things, it is estimated that he can see it at a glance." ”

Geng Chaozhong also smiled, it was obvious that Wang Tianmu originally planned to give this snuffbox to the seat.

The seat is extremely superstitious, and he has studied folk feng shui cultural relics, and he thinks that he is short of water, so he also changed his name with the word water. And he reused Wang Tianmu, not only because Wang Tianmu met him in Weimo, but also because there was a piece of wood and water in the Five Elements Shengke, and the name Wang Tianmu also meant that it could replenish water, which was good luck for him.

Geng Chaozhong even suspected for a while that Shen Zui was reused in the seat because Shen Zui's name was related to water, and another subordinate of the seat was Xiao and there was also water in his name, so Geng Chaozhong was also considering whether to change his name to Fang Shui.

Wang Tianmu saw Geng Chaozhong bowing his head and pondering, thinking that he was thinking about the task, he stretched out his hand and patted Geng Chaozhong's shoulder, and said:

"Of course, the first few batches of goods are all transported by the army, the road is far away, there are many people, maybe it is the escort personnel in the middle of the way, it may not be possible to lose the bag, but the batch of goods you are escorting now is different, they are the essence of the Forbidden City, the most important thing, there must be no mistakes, so, these treasures, not only to transport back safely, but also to ensure that the treasure is true!"

"Understood," Geng Chaozhong nodded, "So, where is the baby now?" ”

Wang Tianmu smiled mysteriously and said:

"Eat some food first, and I'll lead you over later."

.......

After lunch, Wang Tianmu changed into a horse coat and covered his bald head with a melon skin hat on his head, while Geng Chaozhong was still dressed in a cyan robe, and the two walked together, and it didn't take long for them to come to the Forbidden City.

Looking at this majestic and majestic old palace, but it was overgrown with weeds and could not hide the dilapidation, Geng Chaozhong couldn't help but sigh a little for a while.

"Don't look at it, the old palace of the dead country, bad luck!" Wang Tianmu nodded at Geng Chaozhong and pulled him inside.

Walking in from the Peace Gate, there is a row of small houses only one person high, this is the residence of the eunuchs - although some of the great eunuchs of the previous dynasty leaned towards the government and the opposition, but in fact they were limited to the ancestral system, and their living conditions were very poor, but the rich eunuchs had already bought a house outside the Peace Gate, and even married a wife and had children, and lived a "normal" life.

Wang Tianmu led Geng Chaozhong in, came to the front of a small room at the easternmost end, knocked on the window lattice, and shouted inside: "Old man Jin, come out and speak!" ”

With a squeak, the door was pushed open, and an old man with a small braid left behind his head and a bright head ran out, opened his old eyes and glanced at Wang Tianmu, his face suddenly showed a little fear, made a gesture, and said respectfully:

"Commander Wang, are you here?"

The voice is sharp, and he is clearly a eunuch.

Geng Chaozhong listened to his words, but he couldn't help but be happy, turned his head and glanced at Wang Tianmu, Wang Tianmu smiled helplessly and said: "These people are still living in the past world, but the official name is not wrong, I am more or less a great commander, right?" ”

After speaking, he touched his bald head unconfidently, but he only touched the melon skin hat on his head.

After chatting a few words and asking about the recent situation in the palace, Wang Tianmu asked again:

"Old man Jin, no one has ever entered that room, right?"

"Returning to the Great Commander, absolutely not, whoever dares to go over to those little things, the old slave will definitely break their dog's legs!" The golden old man's waist suddenly stiffened, and he was actually quite majestic.

"Okay, take me there." Wang Tianmu ordered.

The old man Jin answered, turned around and walked in, but he didn't expect this guy to look at the seventy and eighty, the steps under his feet were indeed fast, Geng Chaozhong took a big stride, and he was only barely able to keep up, he couldn't help but be surprised and funny, and said with a smile: "This old man is running fast!" ”

"That is, if you don't have quick hands and feet, how can you serve the emperor? Haven't you heard of it? This eunuch runs faster than a reporter except that he doesn't have a dick! Wang Tianmu said with a smile.

Geng Chaozhong also laughed, at this time there were many newspapers in the city of Beiping, and many tabloid reporters walked the streets and alleys on weekdays, and the locals called the reporters "fast legs".

Thinking about it, this eunuch may have practiced some martial arts classics, and it is not unusual to run so fast.

Geng Chaozhong's mind was full of bad taste, but his feet did not stop at all, and it didn't take long for the three of them to come to the side hall, and there was a big copper lock on the door of the side hall, Wang Tianmu stepped forward, took out a key, and opened the door of the hall.

The door was pushed open, and a smell of rotten wood wafted out, only to see that it was dusty and covered with cobwebs, obviously it had been abandoned for a long time, and there was a big plaque in the center of the hall, which read "Cishou Ning'an" four big characters.

"Where is this?" Geng Chaozhong asked.

"This is the old palace of the Empress Dowager Ci'an when she was a concubine, and she didn't live for long, and after marrying Tongzhiye, she quickly moved to the Ci'an Palace inside." The golden eunuch replied.

Geng Chaozhong glanced at Wang Tianmu, and the meaning was very clear, where to put the things - he was not interested in listening to the old eunuch tell the story of the palace, and it was serious to take the things and leave quickly.

"Right there." Wang Tianmu pointed to the back of the plaque.

Geng Chaozhong raised his head and looked at the large plaque of "Cishou Ning'an", slightly stunned.

Unexpectedly, these treasures, like the edicts of the emperors of the past dynasties, were actually placed behind the plaque!

It's normal to think about it, put it down, as long as you look carefully, you can always find it, but if you want to get it, then you have to move a ladder over, this palace is a big movement can not hide from people, this is a good place to hide things!

"Brother Tianmu, have you seen it?" Geng Chaozhong looked at the plaque for a while, then turned around and asked Wang Tianmu.

"No, I don't watch it, and I don't want to." Wang Tianmu shook his head.

Geng Chaozhong understood, if he didn't look at it, he wouldn't be responsible, he hadn't seen anything, and the real or fake had nothing to do with him, but if he saw it, if it was a fake, then he would be suspicious!

But if you are a treasurer, how can you not look at it?
