Chapter 251: A Shocking Secret!
Han Yunjing took off the dark sheet on the box, and the old wooden box was exposed in front of their eyes, looking at the lock on the wooden box, Han Yunjing shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "Without the key, I can't open it!" ”
Shen Qing's dark eyes turned and said, "Third brother, why don't you go find a hammer and we will smash it open?" ”
"Smashing boxes in the middle of the night? Are you afraid of my mother, eldest brother, second brother doesn't know what you did tonight? Han Yunjing said with a wooden face.
Shen Qing helplessly supported his forehead: "It's not smashing open!" It's prying! Pry open! ”
"It's almost like prying!" Han Yunjing pursed his lips and chuckled, and then lightly found a nail hammer, which was specially used for nailing. I saw Han Yunjing aim the nail hammer at a nail near the lock, and with a little force, the nail was pulled up, and the wooden box was not damaged at all.
Shen Qing clasped his hands together and praised him very carelessly: "Third brother, you are so powerful, you can actually pull out the nails." ”
Han Yunjing, who felt the thick perfunctory, pursed his lips speechlessly, and continued to pick up the second nail, the third nail...... Soon, all the nails were lifted.
Han Yunjing put down the hammer and said to Shen Qing: "When the nail is finished, I'll open it, in case of danger, I'll come!" ”
What danger can a box be ...... "Third Brother"? But when Han Yunjing said this, Shen Qing didn't stop him, and said symbolically: "Third brother, you have to be careful~"
Han Yunjing took a deep look at the perfunctory Shen Qing, and hoped very much that the wooden box brought back by Sister Qing'er this time could have some effect, otherwise it would be a waste of effort.
Under Shen Qing's gaze, Han Yunjing slowly opened the box.
The moment the box opened, the contents slipped out.
Shen Qing picked it up and saw that it was an account book!
She opened the account book and saw that it recorded Liu Zhongtian's business in Wangjiang County, shops, restaurants, land, etc.
In addition to the ledgers, there was also a large stack of silver bills, the amount of which was very large, the smallest of which was only five hundred taels. Shen Qing was dumbfounded, if these things were handed over to the prefect, Liu Zhongtian would be able to go to prison tomorrow and not be allowed to come out for the rest of his life.
When they took out the ledger and the silver ticket from the box, they saw a booklet with no name under the box, which was dark yellow in color, and it seemed to be some years old.
But it was very neatly preserved, because it was also wrapped in a layer of white cloth, if it wasn't for Shen Qing accidentally tearing open the white cloth when he took the silver ticket, they didn't know that there was a booklet under the white cloth.
There is no writing on the cover of the booklet, I don't know what is written?
Shen Qing opened the booklet and read it from the first line.
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, it's shocking to see it.
This booklet clearly records the process of why Han Yunjing became an unlucky teenager in Baoyan Village who everyone shouted and scolded, and from the perspective of time, it can be consistent with what she heard before.
But~
It also recorded the process of the former county magistrate of Wangjiang County who came to Baoyan Village to inspect the people's livelihood, and was intercepted and killed by bandits after returning home, as well as the list of bandits involved in the case.
Looking at the list of some bandits outlined with a red cinnabar pen, Shen Qing had a bad premonition in his heart, they might ...... It's gone!
"Third brother, go and call the eldest brother and the second brother over, a big discovery, a shocking secret!" Shen Qing hurriedly closed the booklet and said to Han Yunjing.
Han Yunjing didn't know how to read and didn't understand any secrets, but when he saw Shen Qing's pale face, he immediately ran to the hall and knocked on the door, and called the eldest brother, second brother, and mother over together.
