Chapter 186: Theft

All the way twists and turns, around a lot of rockery lakes and water, I finally came to the place where the Liu family originally lived.

It is a small garden, the arrangement is very delicate and beautiful, in the northern gardens that can be seen everywhere rarely have the style of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, Wei Shaoguang stood at the door of the garden and looked around the scenery in a circle, nodded appreciatively.

This Liu family should be a Jiangnan woman, right? She thought about it for a moment.

"Two adults, this is the original residence of the eighteenth aunt."

"Well, I'm tired."

Wei Shaoguang politely thanked him.

The maid respectfully bowed and bowed, and then Wei Shaoguang walked into the already empty garden with Xiaoxi.

"Father-in-law, I wonder if you're good at detecting clues?"

Walking on the fine stone path in the garden, Wei Shaoguang asked Xiaoxi such a question as if unintentionally.

Xiao Xi laughed, revealing a respectful expression and replied to Wei Shaoguang, "Lord Yan is really good at asking questions, and the slave follows the master to stock in the palace, and this ability is still there, but it's just ...... Now it depends on what Lord Yan wants the slave to see. ”

Talking to a smart person is effortless, one point is clear, Wei Shaoguang smiled and said, "Grandpa Xi is really not a mortal, and this official just wants to get rid of Grandpa Xi, see if we are ......" Suddenly she lowered her voice and said, "What little tail do you have?" ”

As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere took a sharp turn, Xiaoxi still smiled, respectful and polite but inviolable, he gently brushed the dust in his right hand, his eyes looked behind him inadvertently, and said unhurriedly, "Lord Yan is so vigorous, the slave didn't find out, it seems that the slave needs to learn from the master again after he goes back." ”

"Hahaha! Father-in-law Xi doesn't have to blame himself and be nervous, the official is just a little sensitive, let's hurry up and check the Liu family's house, so we can go back and report to Your Majesty. ”

"What you say is very true, and the minions are all at your command."

"Hey! This can't be done, this official has just entered the court, and his experience is definitely not as good as yours, and it should be that the official should thank you a lot for your support. ”

"Lord Yan is humble, since Master and his old man value you, it is naturally that you are very clever, where can the slave carry you?"

"Father-in-law, please be careful of your step, this road is really stylish but too uneven."

"Minion, thank you Lord Yan for the reminder!"

"Hahahaha! It's just a gesture, so why worry about it. ”

The two of them chatted all the way and led the tail behind them into the house where the Liu family lived.

Wei Shaoguang's eyes were deep and sharp, and he did not hide his actions, and directly checked in the room, turning over those books and clothes, and the tea utensils he usually used, but he gained little.

The Liu family was directly rescued from the dungeon, but her good deeds were more ruthless, not only did she loot a lot of valuable gold and silver treasures and fragments of the sealing talisman in the Guogong Mansion, but he also stole the valuable things in the Liu family's room, which was really unkind.

At present, the room was a mess, with clothes scattered on the floor, tables, chairs, and benches placed in a disorderly manner, and books and jewelry even more chaotic.

Those slightly valuable gold and silver jewelry have all been stolen, and the rest are hairpins and porcelain that Ye Qiu thinks he can't take away, but in fact, the Liu family is a knowledgeable person. There were two or three valuable calligraphy and painting calligraphy in the room, but apparently the two men had not connected them in advance, and those paintings and calligraphy were thrown on the ground at random, mixed with scattered rice paper.

Wei Shaoguang squatted on the ground, reached out to pick it up and tasted it carefully, and then she slowly rolled up those calligraphy and paintings, tied the rope outside, held it in her hand, and her eyes wandered back and forth among the papers on the ground, and then she really found something.

It's not that there's anything in the middle of the papers, but there's a small wooden box on the bottom layer of the bogu shelf that serves as a bookshelf, and it's locked.

Shaoguang felt strange, so he stood up and put the calligraphy and painting in his hand on the desk on the side, and then walked to the Bogu shelf and bent down to pick up the small box, looked at it for a while, and Shaoguang decisively chose to hold the small box and walked to the dresser.

She didn't say anything, just picked up a silk flower, dismantled the delicate silk flower with her bare hands under Xiaoxi's puzzled gaze, pulled out a thin copper wire used to support the flower, and then bent and twisted it skillfully, and picked the lock on the small box in front of Xiaoxi.

Xiaoxi: "!! ”

I really can't imagine that the polite Lord Yan would have such skills......

Xiaoxi said that this Yan Yuheng was really gradually beyond his cognition.

Wei Shaoguang opened the small box as if no one was around, and found that there were only some small things inside, neither gold and silver treasures nor correspondence, Wei Shaoguang was slightly disappointed, but these things also suddenly attracted her other attention.

There are three items in total.

A wooden plum hairpin, a jade bracelet broken in half, a sachet full of dried flowers,

Wei Shaoguang is a sensitive person, she saw the rough workmanship of the plum hairpin suddenly connected to a line in her head, in order to verify her thoughts, she opened the sachet, took out a piece of dried flowers, after careful observation, confirmed, this is a bag of dried red plum blossoms.

Plum blossoms, red plums, red plums again!

Damn it!

What does this mean exactly?

Could it be that it is related to Fu Weiren? Or is this Liu just just fond of plum blossoms?

Wei shook his brows with a headache.

When he raised his head, he found Xiao Xi's surprised gaze, and Wei Shaoguang realized what he had just done.

"Ahem! Hi father-in-law, little tricks, hahahaha! Don't be surprised. ”

"How dare a minion? Lord Yan, you are too worried, the minion is just amazed at your acuity, and you have found something useful so quickly. ”

"It's gone, it's just sharp-eyed."

Wei Shaoguang only took out the bag of sachets just now, and didn't take the others out, she blinked and had a bad idea.

"Father-in-law, you laughed, this doesn't seem to be a big thing, maybe it's just a strange collection of the Liu family when she was young, after all, my righteous sister also had such a time."

"Let's check and see if there's anything else."

Xiao Xi didn't say much, the matter of the Guogong Mansion was just a business that he had to come to, and it was most useful to recover the fragments of the Sealing Talisman, as for other things, he could pretend not to understand at some point.

"Lord Yan is right, let's look for it separately, it's not too early, let's go back to the palace as soon as possible."

"Well, there's Father-in-law Laoxi."

Wei Shaoguang said politely, and the two of them went their separate ways.

Wei Shaoguang walked back to the Bogu shelf with the small box, and then smoothed the plum blossom hairpin into his sleeve the moment he turned around.

She was going to go back and let people check whether there was any origin of this hairpin, and maybe there would be an unexpected discovery.

After doing these things, he was about to put away the small box and turn to look elsewhere, but suddenly he caught a glimpse of a rather strange porcelain vase.

It's not that there's something wrong with it, it's just that it looks very unpleasant and very abrupt.

Wei Shaoguang turned back with interest and looked at the azure narrow-mouthed bottle.

After thinking for a while, Wei Shaoguang stretched out his hand and touched the porcelain vase, and tried to turn around, there was no mechanism, not the entrance key to the secret room.

Shaguang frowned and thought about it, lifted it up vigorously, and picked up the porcelain bottle.

Holding the porcelain vase in both hands, I felt the coldness and warmth of the porcelain in my palm, which showed that the fetal quality was good, and it was a rare kiln-fired porcelain of excellent quality. However, there is also the question, why is this porcelain so clean on it, while the other porcelains have dust on it? Moreover, this porcelain vase is the best quality porcelain on the entire Bogu shelf, which is very unusual.

A concubine from a servant background, even if she has lived a rich life for a few years, she will never suddenly increase her aesthetic level, right? Even if it can really be improved, why does this Liu's room look contradictory everywhere?
