Zhang Zhao's thief form was exposed, and everyone calculated that he would have no face to stay in Xiangyang Mansion anymore, but he still went in and out of the luxurious places in the city with his face raised.

On this day, there was shocking news in the Xiangyang Mansion that one of Su Ziyun's favorite jade Buddhas was stolen. This can stab the hornet's nest, and the assassin Shi was so distressed that he was furious, and strictly ordered the third class of officials to arrest the thieves, and also told the people that if they concealed it and did not report it, they would be dealt with as the crime of harboring.

Wu Jing'an and his group of scholars did not dare to slack off, and reported Zhang Zhao's matter to Su Ziyun.

Su Ziyun threw the order to sign and ordered the officials to quickly arrest Zhang Zhao.

At this time, Zhang Zhao was at the house of Yin Huanzhang, one of the few big squires in Xiangyang Mansion. Zhang Zhao said to Yin Huanzhang: "Master Yin, the villain gave you a treasure, I don't know if the master dares to accept it?" ”

Yin Huanzhang narrowed his eyes and asked casually, "What treasures do you have?" ”

Zhang Zhao took out the Jade Buddha from his arms, Yin Huanzhang's eyes suddenly opened, and he was shocked, "You...... You're that stupid...... Stupid thief Zhang Zhao? ”

Zhang Zhao smiled self-deprecatingly.

Yin Huanzhang stared at the treasure with his eyes, swallowed his saliva and said: "Although the two treasures are good, it's a pity that they stabbed Shi Su Ziyun, although I am not afraid of him, but I don't want to provoke him, he is arresting you stupid thief all over the city, I took this thing, didn't I ask for trouble?" ”

Zhang Zhao sneered: "Master Yin, do you really believe that the villain is a stupid thief?" might as well tell the truth, the villain is bound to get Su Ziyun's treasures when he goes to Xiangyang Mansion, so he took a few scholars' broken calligraphy and paintings to show the shape of a thief, so as to pave the way for taking Su Ziyun's treasures. Under Debao, sell the stolen goods immediately, Su Ziyun just arrested me, you must know to catch and destroy the double, and take the thief and take the stolen goods. Without stolen goods, what can Su Ziyun do to me? ”

Yin Huanzhang was shocked: What a shrewd and cunning thief! In fact, his heart had already turned away, how could he give up the treasure in his hand?

He asked quietly, "How much do you want?" Zhang Zhao stretched out five fingers: "Five hundred runs, enough to be chic for a year and a half!" ”

……

Zhang Zhao had just walked out of Yin's mansion and was locked to the mansion by the officials.

Su Ziyun hurriedly ascended to the court for interrogation. Yin Huanzhang followed him to the hall of the government to watch the trial, preparing to help Zhang Zhao a few words when Su Ziyun was poisoned. He never expected that Zhang Zhao was a strong outsider, and as soon as the official laid down a few big boards, Zhang Zhao shouted and confessed like a pig, saying that he had sold the stolen goods to Yin Huanzhang. Yin Huanzhang was dumbfounded.

Su Ziyun was furious, and personally rushed to Yin's mansion with a gust of wind and searched the secret room to find the treasure. Looking at the dazzling array of gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings in the secret room, Su Ziyun waved his hand and let the officials all get it, and packed eight large boxes and brought them back to the palace.

Su Ziyun asked Zhang Zhao to take him to the inner study, and shouted in a deep voice: "Zhang Zhao, do you want to die or live?" ”

Zhang Zhao didn't panic at this time, and said with a grin: "Lord Assassin Shi, of course I want to live, and I want to ask the master for a fortune." ”

Su Ziyun was puzzled, and Zhang Zhao said proudly: "Who are so many treasures, isn't it a matter of the villain's upper and lower lips touching?" “

Su Ziyun stroked his palms and laughed, when he saw this dazzling array of treasures, he had a bad thought in his heart: If I find a way to get Zhang Zhao to confess that these things were stolen from me, then won't they all belong to me?

Su Ziyun sneered in his heart again, this Zhang Zhao is really a stupid thief, he wants to pull out his teeth and compete with him for profit.

Su Ziyun was immediately promoted to the court, and in front of the full house, Zhang Zhao told the eight boxes of treasures that were all stolen from the assassin historian, and drew them in front of the court.

Yin Huanzhang watched the assassin copy the treasures he had painstakingly collected, and he couldn't plead, so he finally seized the opportunity to speak, and shouted: "Lord Assassin Shi, I don't know for a while, and the thief should have accepted your treasures, but the eight boxes of things are all mine!" ”

Su Ziyun shouted: "Nonsense! This jade Buddha was given to me by my teacher back then, and I regard it as a treasure; These antique calligraphy and paintings are the dowry of my wife and several concubines, who usually regard life as life, and are in pain when they are stolen by this thief. Fortunately, the sky has eyes, and the treasure is lost and recovered. Yin Huanzhang, this official thinks that you are a big squire, and you have been given enough face for not curing your crime of selling stolen goods, and you still dare to mess around? ”

Yin Huanzhang sat on the ground with his buttocks, as if he understood that he had fallen into a trap set by others. How could he swallow this breath, stumble home and urgently ask his family to go to Chang'an to deliver the letter. His brother is the chief steward of Empress Wei's brother, Wei Xun's mansion.

After a while, the family sent the letter back to his brother's family. The elder brother told Yin Huanzhang: Uncle Wei has personally helped the Yin family sue the royal complaint, and Empress Wei issued an edict ordering the criminal department Shangshu to personally go to Xiangyang Mansion to try this case of the gentry fighting for treasures, and the elder brother asked him to prepare a few pieces of ironclad evidence.

Sure enough, as soon as Yin Huanzhang was ready, he received a summons from the Yamen, along with Su Ziyun and the thief Zhang Zhao.

The Shangshu of the Criminal Department set up the lobby in the Yamen of the Assassin History, and the large and small officials in the hall were seated, and Zhang Zhao was held under the hall.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department slapped the shocked wood and asked: "Zhang Zhao, who do those treasures belong to truthfully?" ”

Zhang Zhao got up and said, "Lord Shangshu, this needs to be personally looked at to distinguish it." ”

With a wave of his hand, the official sent eight boxes to the court. Zhang Zhao checked box by box.

Suddenly, Zhang Zhao took out something from a box, shaking violently, and everyone saw that he was holding a golden toad made of gold.

Zhang Zhao raised the things in his hand and said loudly: "Lord Shangshu, I can't remember whose treasures they are. But the villain clearly remembers one thing, it was a bloody case in Xiangyang Mansion two years ago, and the goldsmith Zhang Qingyuan made two gold artifacts for man, which was this golden toad. On the night of the production, a group of robbers swarmed into the goldsmith's shop, killing the men and taking the treasure. Zhang Qingyuan was invited to drink and survived. Zhang Qingyuan secretly found out that the robber was the big squire Yin Huanzhang, and quietly ran to the government to complain, begging Su Ziyun to arrest the assassin, but Su Ziyun said that there was no evidence and prevaricated. Unexpectedly, Zhang Qingyuan was killed on the street that night. Please Lord Shangshu to be the master and find out whose Jin Toad is now? Who is the robber who kills and robs the treasure? ”

The whole house was stunned! Yin Huanzhang's face was like ashes, trembling and speechless. Su Ziyun also stared at Zhang Zhao in a panic, and quickly calmed down, and said with a red face: "Lord Shangshu, this is ...... These treasures are indeed Yin Huanzhang's, I really didn't expect him to be a robber who killed people and grabbed treasures, in fact, I didn't want to solve the case back then, I really lacked ironclad evidence, and I was busy with affairs, so I couldn't take care of it......"

Yin Huanzhang came to his senses, jumped out and shouted, "Su Ziyun, what are you pretending to be a good person?" I'm a robber of the Lost Ark, but you instigated the killing of Zhang Qingyuan, and I gave you a golden toad afterwards. So saying, he ran to a mahogany box, lifted off the treasure inside, smashed open the mezzanine, took out a stack of papers from it, and pulled out one, "I'm afraid that you will be insatiable and coercive afterwards, and the letter you instructed me is still hidden!" ”
