Chapter 39: Noon (14)

Since the prime minister's mansion was full of black-clothed people, the four of them had nowhere to hide, and finally hid in a utility room where no one went.

Xiao Jinniang relieved herself and asked Tian Xinyu.

"Did you already know that the butler was going to do this today?"

Tian Xinyu sighed.

"Actually, I don't know! My Ah Lang is a eunuch so he can't have children, he asked the housekeeper to help him find a son in the early years, so the housekeeper found me, when I was young, he drank too much and said that sooner or later he would kill Tian Xiang's family, but it's a pity that I have such a foreign surname, I was still young at that time, I only thought he was drunk and nonsense, I didn't expect it to be true"

Su Xingge, who had never seen such a scene, was scared and cried.

"No matter whether you live or die today, since you are all your people, even if you die now, I will accompany you to Huangquan together"

Yeluping immediately scolded.

"Dead what die, isn't it good to live! Besides, the two of you have just married and your days are still long, how can you easily say death"

Xiao Jinniang nodded.

"If I know you, then it's the first time I've seen you speak human words" Seeing that Ye Luping wanted to refute, Xiao Jinniang immediately said: "Xinyu, don't you have any secret passages in your family?" I watched that in the TV series, the big families have left a way back for themselves, and your family has it too! ”

Tian Xinyu frowned at first, and then responded.

"There is a secret passage, and I walked forward through a cross-courtyard and a utility room, and there is a secret passage leading to the outside of the house."

Xiao Jinniang smacked her lips.

"Rich people are different, they don't live as a utility room when they have more houses, and I want one like this, but my salary can't even afford a toilet in Shanghai."

"What are you talking about, why are you talking nonsense" Yeluping said: "It's not appropriate to be here for a long time, don't hurry up, otherwise it will be a dead end if you are caught"

As he spoke, Yeluping opened the door and poked his head out to see if the man in black had found them, and when he saw that there was no one outside the door, he ordered the three of them to come out.

Tian Xinyu and Su Xingge cautiously walked out of the utility room, and when Xiao Jinniang followed closely, they didn't know what was mixed under their feet, and they couldn't get up from lying on the ground

"Sister Xiao, what's wrong with you? You okay? ”

Xiao Jinniang endured the pain: "It's okay, you guys go first, I'll wait for you outside the house"

"Okay" Tian Xinyu said: "After we escape from the Prime Minister's Mansion, we will go to Hejia Village, where our family has an industry, we can go there to hide for a while."

Xiao Jinniang nodded after hearing this.

"Okay, I know, Hejia Village"

After the three of them left, Xiao Jinniang touched her ankle bone: "It may be that it is broken, it is really unlucky"

Xiao Jinniang gently tried to trip over something with his hand, only feeling that it was a sharp thing, but it didn't hurt too much, so he reluctantly stood up and found a tool in the utility room and began to dig carefully.

The soil layer is not deep, and after digging a few times, I saw something that tripped Xiao Jinniang.

It is 15.6 centimeters long and 5.9 centimeters in diameter, like a drinking cup.

Xiao Jinniang picked it up and wiped off the dust on it, and then suddenly realized.

"I'm going, it's really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it, the beast head agate cup was actually found by me, but it's a pity that it was abandoned in the abandoned utility room, it's really a tyrannical thing!"

Xiao Jinniang wiped the beast head agate cup clean, carefully reassured her arms, followed the route Tian Xinyu just said to find the secret passage to the outside world of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and successfully escaped from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

It's just that he heard it wrong at the beginning, Tian Xinyu said Hejia Village, she heard it as Hejia Village, although the road is far from the north, but this is such an unintentional move of great significance, leaving a treasure of art to China in the future, which is commendable.

Walk twenty miles east from Xinghuafang to Hejia Village.

There were more than 100 households in Hejia Village before, Tang Dezong Jianzhong broke out in the Jingyuan Mutiny in the fourth year, and Liu Zhen made Liu Zhen to make the palace finances not outflow, so he ordered his subordinates to bring out all the valuable treasures, and in the case of bandits and pursuers, they failed to reach the designated place, but were buried under the big tree at the entrance of Hejia Village.

One of the duties of the envoy was to take care of the property of the imperial court, so he said that when the treasures in the palace were transported out of the palace, there was no one to stop them, and even Jin Wuwei helped.

Eighty-three years have passed since the Jingyuan Mutiny, and now Hejia Village has long lost its former liveliness, and there is only one family left under the big tree at the entrance of the village.

The old man's surname is Liu, the 83-year-old lady died early, living alone, when Liu Laohan saw a stranger in the village, his sick body suddenly tensed.

"Old man, don't be nervous, I came rashly without malice, I just want to ask, are you the descendant of Liu Zhiyong's envoy back then?"

Liu Laohan was very nervous, picked up a hoe and threatened.

"What's the matter, what's the matter, I know that you people must not have a good heart when you come to Hejia Village again and again, don't worry, even if I fight hard, I won't let you succeed."

Xiao Jinniang explained in a panic.

"Liu Laohan, you misunderstood, I'm not here to steal the treasures in the palace, I'm here to ......"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Laohan sharply accused.

"Let's tell the truth! You're not here to steal the treasure, you're here for what? Are you looking for my old man for tea? I've already seen through the tricks of you people, so let's let go of evil thoughts! I think you're a girl, why did you do this kind of stealing thing."

In the next half an hour, no matter how hard Xiao Jinniang tried to speak, the stubborn Liu Laohan never believed her origin, until she took out the beast head agate cup from the baggage, Liu Laohan put down the hoe in disbelief and wiped his tears sadly.

"In the past, there were always people who claimed to be in the palace to take away the treasures, I thought that everything was in the palace anyway, and our family only gave them because they were forced to take care of it, but it didn't take long for me to accidentally find these treasures on the black market, and I knew that I had been deceived, so I never gave it again if someone claimed to be in the palace to take the baby, after all, these things were protected by Ah Lang's desperate efforts, and the people in the palace wanted to take it unless the saint came to take it personally."

Xiao Jinniang nodded unconsciously.

"Then aren't you afraid of being ambitious by those people?"

Liu Laohan sneered: "Sometimes they beat me too, the more they beat me, the more I won't say, they are afraid that if they beat me to death, no one will tell them where the treasure is hidden, these people will come to the soft ones if they can't do it, and they will come to bring good wine and good food and bribe mouths on the fifteenth day of the new year, people or seventy years old, I am over eighty, and I can live for a few years, and I can have so many filial sons and grandsons to serve me before I die, and it is worth dying."

Xiao Jinniang admires Liu Laohan's courage to protect the national treasure alone, and it seems that the beast head agate cup is entrusted to the good person.

Xiao Jinniang's eyes were a little moist, and she told Liu Laohan that those who robbed the national treasure would not come again, Liu Laohan asked her why, but Xiao Jinniang didn't say.

Because it won't be long before what Liu Laohan guards, and it will disappear in the years with its former prosperity.

After burying the beast head agate cup and those national treasures together, Xiao Jinniang bought a female camel and her baby, and then killed its mother in front of the baby camel. Pour blood on the ground and bring the little camel here, who wails because he has witnessed the death of the mother camel

Xiao Jinniang did the same when she saw the tomb of Genghis Khan in the wild history.

In order to make it easier for archaeologists in 1970 to find the place where the national treasure was buried, Xiao Jinniang asked Liu Laohan to continue to think about it after the little camel grew up, and the cycle repeated.

Since then, Liu Laohan and his descendants have followed Xiao Jinniang's words and passed them down from generation to generation until 1970.
