Li Tao asked, "Where is this stone idiot now?" ”

"I've already sent him to the horse farm in Luzhou!" Li Shen replied.

Li Tao nodded and said: "That's okay, those forging slaves brought back from the Turks happen to be in Luzhou, let the stone idiots help build weapons, and I'll go to see him when I'm free!" ”

As soon as Li Shen was sent away, Jiang Yan came to visit.

"Lantian King, I'm really sorry! I'm afraid I won't find the little turtle you want! Jiang Yan looked apologetic.

"What's going on?" Li Tao was not in a hurry.

Li Tao arranged the matter, Jiang Jiao is very concerned, a month in a blink of an eye, but the shopkeeper of the "Treasure Pavilion" is nowhere to be found, Jiang Jiao asked the little official several times, but the little official could not reply.

On this day, Jiang Yan was drinking tea in the house, but the little official hurriedly visited, saying that he had inquired about the news of the shopkeeper of the "Treasure Pavilion", and the little official said that the shopkeeper had been arrested by the government in Xinyang a few days ago and sentenced to beheading, and I heard that he was a Jiangyang thief.

After listening to Jiang Jiao's statement, Li Tao said disapprerovitically: "If you can't find it, you can't find it, and it's worth your personal trip to this matter." ”

Jiang Yan wanted to speak and stopped.

Li Tao shook his head and sighed: "If you are really a person in the officialdom, you can't change it if you want to." Since I promised you, then there will be no problem with Li Linfu's matter, why can't you rest assured? ”

Jiang Jiao was told by Li Tao, his face turned red, and he said: "There is King Lao Lantian, then Jiang will retire." ”

After Jiang twisted away, Li Tao pondered for a while, felt that something was wrong, and left the palace.

Li Tao walked to the yamen of the Criminal Department, since Liu Xuan resigned. The post of secretary of the criminal department was held by Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei saw that Li Tao came to the Criminal Department in person, and he didn't dare to slack off. After Li Tao made a request to access the death penalty files submitted by various states and counties, Zhang Wei agreed without thinking about it.

Li Tao looked through the death penalty files submitted by the state capitals. Sure enough, in Xinyang's submission, the case of the shopkeeper of the "Treasure Pavilion" was found.

It turned out that the shopkeeper of the "Treasure Pavilion" was the world-famous flying thief more than ten years ago. Things are strange, more than 20 days ago, Xinyang Assassin received a strange secret letter. The letter said that the flying thief who committed a crime in Xinyang Prefecture more than 10 years ago will reappear in the rivers and lakes in the near future to commit a crime in the Gu family compound. Please assassinate Lord Shi and ambush him.

The assassin will be suspicious, Hu Zuofei has visited the Gu family's compound once more than ten years ago, and that time not only stole a piece of the Gu family's ancestral blood-silk jade turtle for several generations. also because of the exposure of evil deeds, dozens of lives were killed up and down the Gu family. Now that the Gu family's compound has long been ruined, there is only one old housekeeper guarding the courtyard, what are you doing here?

But Thorn Shi would rather believe that he has it than believe that he has not. sent his subordinates to set up an ambush at Gu's house. After more than ten days. One night, Hu Zuofei really crossed the wall, and just as he was forcing the old housekeeper to hand over some little jade turtle in the Gu family, the crowd rushed up and captured him. Hu Zuofei confessed to the crimes he committed more than ten years ago. Back then, after Hu Zuofei killed dozens of Gu family's lives, he knew that he could not escape the blame, so he washed his hands in a golden basin, took out the treasures obtained from theft, and opened an antique shop in the capital, so many years have passed. No one recognized him. If it weren't for the secret help of the master to capture him this time, I'm afraid he wouldn't know how long he would be free.

Li Tao finished reading the case report. I already know a little bit in my heart. Nine times out of ten, this love jade is the descendant of the Gu family back then, and he quickly sent a letter to the prefect of Xinyang Prefecture, asking if there were any descendants left in the past. A few days later, he wrote back to report that there was indeed a young daughter of the Gu family who avoided being killed because she was at a relative's house, but her whereabouts were not known later. This woman's name is Wanyu.

In order to find the murderer, she did not hesitate to fall into the dust, and in the name of hobbing jade play, she collected jade products from all over the world, the purpose was to see the jade turtle again. Back then, Hu Zuofei left the little turtle in the fight. Lianyu used this as bait, with the help of the power and financial resources of the person who bought the jade turtle, to track down the whereabouts of the little turtle. If you follow the vine like this, you will definitely bring out the nonsense hidden in the shadows. Driven by money, Hu Zuofei will definitely take risks and go to the Gu family to rob the little turtle again. So, she wrote an anonymous letter to Xinyang Prefecture Assassin Shi, asking him to set up troops to catch turtles in the urn.

After returning home, Li Tao quickly arranged for Pei Yue to redeem Lianyu and settle him in Lantian Wangfu to live first.

Who knew that Pei Yue came back and told Li Tao that Lianyu had redeemed herself and arrived at a nunnery in the suburbs, ready to cut her hair and become a nun.

Li Tao let out a long sigh, it seems that this matter is a little troublesome.

Before Li Tao could figure out how to tell Ashina the news, Ashina Snow Lotus came to the door.

"Lantian King, you can help me persuade my eldest brother!" Ashina offered snow lotus and said hurriedly as soon as he entered the door.

"What's wrong with your eldest brother?"

Li Tao muttered in his heart, isn't it that Ashina Xian already knows about love for jade.

"Shopkeeper Sun committed suicide!" Ashina Xuelian said with a sad face.

"Huh?" Li Tao was stunned by Ashina Xuelian's brainless words, and he hurriedly said: "Xuelian, what is going on, you sit down and talk slowly." ”

Early in the morning, as soon as the shopkeeper Sun sat down in front of the pawnshop, he saw a young man holding a black lacquered wooden box in one hand hurriedly entering the pawnshop. When he arrived at the counter, the young man didn't say much, raised his hand and gently put the black lacquered wooden box in front of the shopkeeper Sun, opened it, and let the shopkeeper Sun see it.

When Shopkeeper Sun saw it, he didn't slack off, and hurriedly got up and looked inside the black lacquered wooden box. It's just that it doesn't matter if you look at it, he was so startled that he almost screamed "oops".

I saw that in the black lacquered wooden box, a pair of ancient incense burners were shaped like turtles, and the whole body was red like coals, especially the turtle-like copper stove lid was as thin as cicada wings, and the birds of prey and beasts carved on it were even more lifelike......

After looking at it, the shopkeeper Sun couldn't help but raise his head again to look at the person who came, the young man Wenjing had a small face, but he also did not lose his honest appearance. Shopkeeper Sun nodded, just waiting for the young man to shout the price.

But the young man was not in a hurry to shout the price, but took out a pair of ancient incense burners from the wooden box with great care, gently put them on the table, and then took out two small pieces of charcoal from the purse and lit them a few times. Immediately afterwards, he reached out and opened a pair of copper stove lids as thin as cicada wings one by one, and put the burning charcoal fire into the furnace. As the lid of the furnace was gently closed, a stunning scene appeared.

I saw a pair of ancient incense burners at the same time purple smoke rising up. Shopkeeper Sun jumped a few steps away, looked from a distance, and saw an ancient incense burner as if Guanyin was sitting on it; One has Maitreya Buddha smiling. The purple smoke rose to a height of more than two feet, and the smoke faded, but the whole pawnshop was fragrant. What's even more amazing is that with the burning of the charcoal fire, on the lids of the two copper stoves as thin as cicada wings, the birds and beasts of prey with line carvings are ready to move......
