Chapter 7: Adventures in the Mountains (3)

Besides, it was not good for the little servants in Gongsun's Mansion to shout, Yu Weng reprimanded sharply: "What kind of system is it in a panic, what happened, hurry up." ”

The little servant hurriedly said: "Old butler, the master's treasure has been stolen. ”

"Ah, which treasure is missing, tell me quickly." Yu Weng exclaimed.

The little girl replied again: "It's the master's Penglai Blue Shadow Night Pearl." ”

When Yu Weng heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, and his voice trembled a little and asked: "Hugh is nonsense, that Penglai Blue Shadow Night Pearl is a cherished thing by the owner, and it is usually very strictly guarded in the treasure box of the inner house, and we are not allowed to touch it." Besides, when I heard that there was a burglar in the front yard, how did I run into the inner house in less than a moment and steal the treasures of my master. ”

The little servant replied with some fear: "What the villain said is true, and I saw with my own eyes that the thief entered the master's study and stole the orb." ”

"You see, tell me what the thief looks like?" Everyone asked in unison.

The little guy lowered his head and said, "The villain doesn't dare to say it." ”

Yu Weng said angrily: "Why don't you dare to say it, if you don't say it, I will think that you stole the orb." ”

Seeing this, the little servant hurriedly knelt on the ground, shouted injustice, and then pointed at Yun Meng with his hand, and said: "It's him, Fang Cai, I saw Yun Gongzi sneak into the master's study, and then the jewel was gone." ”

As soon as Yun Meng heard the words of the little girl, his brain suddenly "buzzed", and he said bitterly in his heart, "I feel that something is going to happen, but I didn't expect it to be such an injustice." I regret that I shouldn't have gone to the inner house, and I shouldn't have gone into the study. Hurriedly explained, "Old housekeeper, this is a misunderstanding, Yun Meng has been to the study, but he has never taken the orb." ”

Yu Weng turned around with a cold face at this time and said: "Yun Gongzi, don't be joking, that treasure bead is really my master's beloved thing, if you just like it and play with it, it's okay, just return it quietly, for the sake of your friendship with me, I won't tell you, what do you think?" ”

How could this Yun Meng admit it, and said busily: "Old housekeeper Mingjian, I Yun Meng is young, but the way of the sage is also clear, the master of your mansion has a life-saving grace for the subordinates, and the gentleman loves money in a good way, not to mention that I only caught a glimpse of the jewel by chance, and I didn't touch it, let alone take it." ”

Yu Weng's face became even more ugly when he heard this, and he didn't say anything to Yun Meng, and glanced at Xu Hong next to him, Xu Hong paused a little, and then walked towards the east across the courtyard. After a while, I saw Xu Hong walking out with an object in his hand, spreading his hand full of brilliance, and everyone saw that it was the pearl of Penglai Blue Shadow Night. Yun Meng was secretly surprised why the jewel came to his room, and eighty percent of it was calculated by others.

Yu Weng sneered: "Yun Gongzi, Yun Gongzi, I wasted my master's kindness to you, and I want to cultivate you as a pillar of talent, who would have thought that you are a small man, what else do you have to say?" ”

Yun Meng suddenly suffered an injustice, and he was very annoyed in his heart, and his face was even more unsightly at this time, so he pressed the fire, and said to Weng Gong: "The old housekeeper's words are wrong, and it is too far-fetched to condemn me based on his words and the jewel found in my room." Yun Meng was loved by the master's family, and your mansion took good care of me, but Yun Mou only went to your mansion for less than half a day, and most of the time he stayed in the east cross courtyard room, and the surrounding environment was not familiar, I also said just now, I was going to meet the young master of your mansion, so I went to the study, and I didn't know that there was no one in the study, and the jewel was only a glance at most. After hearing the noise of the front yard, I rushed here. Even if I have the time, I will have the time to put the orb back in the house first, and then come out to deal with you. I can't make sense of it. ”

Yu Weng continued: "The matter has come to this point, you are still clever in your words, come, tie up this thief first, and send it to the official for questioning after dawn tomorrow." ”

After that, someone from both sides came up and pressed Yun Meng to the ground and wanted to tie him up.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "Stop, you are rude!" But it was the young protagonist Sun Ziyang, Gongsun Ziyang helped Yun Meng up, and reprimanded Yu Weng and the others sharply: "I have heard what Master Yun said, and the orb has not been lost, why are you still so rude?" Yu Weng and the others bowed their heads and were silent.

Gongsun Ziyang apologized to Yun Meng again, and said: "It's because I was too pampered with my subordinates on weekdays, and I lost my discipline, so I made my son suffer, and I apologize here." Gongsun Ziyang spoke politely, but he did not clarify the misunderstanding at all.

Yun Meng is an upright person, how can he just go past in such a daze, and he held back the tears in his eyes and said to Gongsun Ziyang: "The young master is kind, and I have received it in my heart." Although Yun Meng is not a heroic husband or a famous family, he has been educated by sages since he was a child, and he also knows how important the word reputation is. Although today's incident was not done by Yun Meng, it seems to be related to Yun Meng, so let Yun Meng investigate and clarify the facts, and ask the young master to agree. ”

"Yun Gongzi, what is the trouble. However, if the son insists on this, he will follow the child's wishes, and it will be good to return the innocence of the child. "Gongsun Ziyang is half-pushed, it's really sleek.

It's just that how can this headless case be investigated clearly, isn't Yun Meng difficult for himself, but Yun Meng is Yun Meng, and his insight into Qiu Hao's character traits helped him again. Yun Meng pondered for a moment and then said to Gongsun Ziyang: "Young master, can Yun Meng go into the study?" ”

"Of course, please." Gongsun Ziyang replied, and everyone came to the study of the inner house, Yun Meng paced two steps in the study, and then approached the wooden box containing the night pearl and sniffed it, and then smiled faintly.

Turning to Gongsun Ziyang and the others, he said, "Young master, I think I already know who took this night pearl." ”

"Huh? It's weird, Yun Gongzi just walked around the house, and he could find the truth by smelling it? Don't blame you for being rude, it seems unlikely! Gongsun Ziyang looked at Yun Meng with puzzled eyes and said.

Yun Meng replied confidently: "We'll know what the result will be in a moment." Dare to ask how many family members and subordinates are there in the young master's family? ”

Gongsun Ziyang said: "The family only has my father and me, are you the next person, counting Yu Weng, Guangda, Qingyao and the other three, there is no one else, and they are all in front of the son, is there any problem?" ”

Yun Meng didn't answer, turned to the people present and waited: "Please stretch out your hands, by the way, you are no exception, young master." ”

Everyone first looked at Yun Meng suspiciously, and then turned their heads to look at Gongsun Ziyang, as if they were asking the young master. Gongsun Ziyang stretched out his hands without a silent smile, and the others followed the example of the young master and stretched out their hands. Yun Meng looked at everyone's hands one by one, and sniffed everyone's sleeves. Pointing to the little guy who had just identified Yun Meng, he said word by word: "It's you who took the Night Pearl!" ”

Everyone was in an uproar, and the little guy shouted in panic: "It's not a villain, it's not a villain, Yun Gongzi, you can't retaliate against the little one because he identified you just now." Young master, villain doesn't! Everyone is also upset about Xiao Si, except for Gongsun Ziyang.

At this time, Gongsun Ziyang looked at Yun Meng with a smile and said, "Gongzi said that this little guy took the Night Pearl, what evidence is there?" ”

Yun Meng replied unhurriedly: "I have observed the wooden box containing the night pearl, which is made by Zhennan, Zhennan itself has a peculiar fragrance, sweet taste, and lasts for a long time, the night pearl is accompanied by this wooden box day and night, and the bead body has also been dyed with the fragrance of Nan, when people hold the pearl in their hands, due to the effect of body temperature, the fragrance can be dyed on the hands and even the sleeves, the fragrance is unique, even if it is slightly carefully smelled, it can be distinguished, this is only one of them, the second, please see what is stained on the edge of the carved place on the side of the wooden box? ”

Gongsun Ziyang leaned over to look at it carefully, and gently wiped it on the edge of the wooden box with his hand, and said, "This seems to be the cinnabar ink from the Danqing period." Why is there such a thing on the wooden box, is it because I didn't care about it when I painted? ”

Yun Meng replied: "No, young master, please see what is wrong with the painting on the screen in the study?" ”

Gongsun Ziyang looked at it for a while and said: The landscape painting on this screen is nothing unusual, but how did the seal spent? ”

"That's the second, I think the figure I saw outside the study at that time should be this little guy, when Yun Meng thought that the young master was in the house and was about to enter the house, this little guy hid behind the screen again, because of a moment of nervousness sweating on his hands, he didn't pay attention to the vermilion on the seal moistened, and dyed it on his hands, when he went to get the pearl again, he accidentally rubbed the cinnabar on the edge of the wooden box, probably due to the rush of time, until now he still has the color of cinnabar on his hands. I don't know if what Yun said is right or not? After Yun Meng finished speaking, he looked at Gongsun Ziyang and the others to see how they answered, because Yun Meng suddenly felt that all this was by no means so simple, and it seemed that everything was arranged by someone.

There was a sudden silence in the study, "Hahahaha, it turned out that it was all a misunderstanding, I tossed for a long time, and even the dinner time was delayed, come on, go and prepare a banquet, I want to be shocked by Yun Gongzi." Gongsun Ziyang was noncommittal about what Yun Meng said, but he didn't clarify, or even explain. Yun Meng forcibly suppressed his inner dissatisfaction, did not show it, and said to Gongsun Ziyang: "Thank you young master, Yun Meng is indeed tired, and now I just want to go and take a rest, so I can't accompany you." Then he turned around and went out.

Gongsun Ziyang hurriedly stopped Yun Meng and said, "Son, why bother? I think Childe must have mixed feelings in his heart at the moment, do you feel that you are being laughed at? ”

Yun Meng arched his hand and replied, "Yun Meng doesn't dare. "The heart said" All this is too weird, since you can't see the old master, you don't have to delay here, make it clear to them today, and leave early tomorrow morning to find your father." Then he came to the front hall with Gongsun Ziyang, and at this time the wine and food had been arranged, and the two of them sat down.

Gongsun Ziyang first poured Yun Meng a glass of wine, then picked up the wine glass himself, and said, "Yun Gongzi's cup of wine is to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, and the second is to apologize to you for tonight's incident." After saying that, he drank all the wine in his cup.

Yun Meng picked up his wine glass and said, "Yun Meng doesn't dare to be, the young master is polite." Yun Meng is still too young to drink, but he should also respect the young master first, so he used this glass of wine to thank the young master for his rescue and acceptance. In addition, Yun Meng and his father and mother are separated, and there is no news so far, and he is very worried about it. Since Ling Zun has not returned for the time being, Yun Meng will not stay in the house for a long time, and will leave early tomorrow morning to find his father and mother. With that, he drank all the wine.

"It seems that Childe has made up his mind, since this is the case, I will not force me to stay, and I will arrange for Childe to go down the mountain tomorrow." Gongsun Ziyang Road. I don't know if it's because of a bad mood, after a few glasses of wine, Yun Meng was so drunk that he was unconscious.

I don't know how long it took for Yun Meng to wake up, but he found that he had been lying on the bed for some time, and he barely got up with a strong spirit, but he still felt lightheaded. Yun Meng rubbed his face vigorously with his hands, sat down at the table and poured a glass of water, and as soon as he took a sip, he found that something seemed to be wrong. Shaking his head, he looked around carefully, "Why isn't I in the room in the East Courtyard, but the furnishings in this room seem to be a little familiar." By the way, remember, isn't this the hut where I lived temporarily? Isn't he in Gongsun Ziyang Mansion, why did he get here again at this moment? Yun Meng's mind was even more chaotic. At this moment, the door was gently pushed open, Yun Meng looked up, and saw Yu Weng walking in with a smile on his back, and arched his hand at Yun Meng and said, "Childe is good, little old man is here to say hello to Childe." ”

Yun Meng was stunned when he heard this, full of suspicions, and thought, "I can't worry now, where is the happy event, could it be that this is tricking me again?" ”

Yu Weng saw Yun Meng's expression full of suspicion, and said to Yun Meng: "Childe is real this time, the old man can use his personal reputation as a guarantee." ”

Seeing this, Yun Meng first asked Yu Weng to sit down, and then asked: "Old housekeeper, where does this joy come from, can you explain it to Yun Meng?" ”

Yu Weng said again: "Okay, the son will listen to the old man and tell the reason." Maybe Childe is still haunted by yesterday's events, if the old man tells you that it's just a bureau, or a test for Childe, what will Childe think? When Childe stepped into Jingzhai, the test began, of course, the result of the test was that Childe really lived up to expectations, my master did not choose the wrong person, only you can carry forward the master's grandeur. So, the old man said hello to his son! In addition, there is one more thing that Childe must not have guessed. ”

Yun Meng's heart turned from yin to sunny at this time, and said: "I see, Yun Meng also feels that everything is a little weird. I don't know what else Yun Meng didn't expect? ”

Yu Weng then asked rhetorically: "Who is Gongsun Ziyang?" Yun Meng asked, "Isn't it the young master of your mansion?" Why do you ask me that? ”

Yu Weng laughed and said: "What is the young master in my family, the one that the son saw is the head of my family, Gongsun Xiu, and his name is Ziyang Zhenren." Yun Meng stood up in shock, and even the teacup on the table was almost knocked off.
