Chapter 3 Unexpected Appearance

Shen Huan chattered, and unexpectedly found that Shun Yu was not by his side, and turned around sharply, seeing that she was standing in front of a mansion, stunned.

He looked back at her and smiled: "Isn't it just a screen?" Little peaches are rare and weird. ”

Thinking that she was born in a humble family, it is no wonder that her vision is shallow, and she jokingly said: "There are several in Shen's mansion, three, five, nine or twelve, if you are happy, ask Shen Erye for it." ”

But seeing that Shun Yu didn't seem to listen to him, he just went straight to the courtyard, he touched his nose, and waved his hand to let the yacha and his party follow.

When he walked to the screen, Shen Huan couldn't help but be surprised: "The gold-carved eight-treasure screen, this frame was actually won by the owner of Zhao Zhuang?" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Shun Yu's shoulders trembled, and his eyes moved to look at him.

Shen Huan whispered in her ear: "Six years ago, Zhou Chen, the secretary of the Criminal Department, privately invited officials to his mansion for a banquet, and I went with Second Master Shen. During the banquet, Zhou Chen took out several rare objects on the market for everyone to enjoy, and this gold-carved eight-treasure screen is one of them. “

"Then what did Lord Shen get?" Shun Yu asked expressionlessly.

Shen Huan shook his head: "Second Master Shen left in a hurry after showing his face because he had official business, and he didn't get anything." “

Shun Yu couldn't help sneering, his heart sank to the bottom of the vast valley, thinking of his eldest brother's "Shouyang Song", and then looking at this big screen, Zhao Shoushan was really involved in the Tian family case, and Shen Erye, if it wasn't for a raccoon dog, how could he be invited to the feast....... In vain, she has been prevaricating for him.

"What other officials did Zhou Chen invite?" She pursed her lips and asked, just at this moment, the curtain of the main room was lifted, and several maids and women came out of it with a woman in their arms, maybe they never thought that there would be a yacha, they were all taken aback, and after a while, they hurriedly came forward to salute, this woman was Zhao Shoushan's wife, Mrs. Jiang.

But I heard Madame Chiang ask: "I don't know why the officials are here?" ”

Shun Yu said calmly: "We were ordered by Lord Shen and Lord Yang to go to the house where Miss Zhao lived before her death to search, aiming to thoroughly investigate the case of Xiao bandits entering the village last night. ”

Mrs. Jiang had red eyes and reluctantly replied: "It's just an old thing handed down from the ancestors, and it is not necessarily precious. ”

Shun Yu said: "Mrs. Jiang probably deceived me when I was young and ignorant, I might as well say to you, the folk spread of the eight treasures screen, called the vulgar eight treasures, more painted embroidery is the stone pan, ruyi, silver ingots, conch, pearls, coral, rhino horn, amber, take happiness and auspiciousness, wealth and happiness, but this frame is completely different. ”

She raised her hand and pointed to the big screen, and then said: "This large screen is a combination of eight fans, red sandalwood, with a base of eight an-shaped bottoms, and eight open-carved lotus petals and crests on it. Take out the five turbidity world, no pollution, relaxation, protect all living beings, this object is only three in the world, two of them are in the palace, Zhao Zhuang and his wife are so blessed, they got another one. ”

Mrs. Jiang looked suspicious, and asked with a smile: "I am an ignorant woman in the backyard, where did I dare to surprise the official, I really don't understand the preciousness of this gold-carved eight-treasure screen, but the official said it in detail, I don't know where I know?" ”

Shun Yu still looked at the big screen, and said casually: "This is not difficult, the capital likes to collect antique calligraphy and paintings, and everyone has a book compiled by Tian Qihui to appreciate the authenticity and distinguish the fake, and the book is all collected in his house, and it happens that there are miles ........ in this object." “

She smiled silently, and her eyes sharpened to take in Mrs. Jiang's panic.

When the temptation was accomplished, he did not stay longer, and said goodbye indifferently, that is, he did not look back.

.........................

Back to the prefect's yamen, everyone sat in front of the hall, and began to discuss while eating tea.

Shun Yu described in detail what Zhao Qingqing saw in the room, and only hid the plum blossom needle without mentioning it.

There was silence in the hall, no one said a word, Shen Zetang rubbed the tiredness of his eyebrows, and meditated.

Yang Qing stood up with annoyance on his face, walked around with his hands behind his back, and sighed for a long time, he had just been transferred to the prefect of Zhenjiang, and he encountered such a difficult case, and sighed that he had bad official fortunes.

Yang Qing heard Shen Zetang speak: "You better sit down, you judge the case like this on weekdays?" Danglement is just a headache. ”

Although he was teasing him, his heart instantly relaxed, and he returned to his original position and sat down, that is, he rushed to the ground: "Lord Shen has a thought?" ”

Shen Zetang said slowly: "Regarding Huo Xiaoyu's silver theft case, return three hundred taels of silver to Luo Yonggui, and the case will be over." “

Yang Qing was taken aback and asked: "I don't know who the silver thief is, how can I close the case?" “

Shen Zetang said briefly: "On the night of the silver theft, anyone has the opportunity to enter the cabin to steal, it is an unsolvable public case, fortunately, three hundred taels of silver are recovered, and the goods are returned to the owner, so you don't have to spend too much energy on this case." “

This is a deliberately set up opening game by someone, in order to confuse the public and interfere with the mind, it is better to cut through the mess quickly and simply ignore it.

The source of it is inconvenient to tell Yang Qing more, and after he weighs the pros and cons, he will definitely do it.

Shen Zetang continued: "Today, Zhao Shoushan mentioned that Zhao Qingqing contracted an illness two months ago, died at noon on the 28th of last month, and was buried on the 10th of this month. After getting off the boat yesterday, I took Feng Jiu and the guards around Zhenjiang City for a whole day, just to make people feel that after being so tired and having fun, there was no energy left to do other things. “

"What do you mean by Lord Shen?" Yang Qing was ignorant, but Shun Yu understood that this old fox ..........

Shen Zetang said gently: "The bandit who broke into 'Leshanzhuang' last night was none other than me and the guards. ”

Yang Qing's jaw fell: "If Lord Shen wants to investigate the case, he will inform the lower officials, and he will definitely cooperate fully, so why bother you to take such a big risk, if there is an accident, what should I do." ”

Shen Zetang smiled and didn't reply, only said: "Fortunately, I took the risk, only to find that Zhao Qingqing's body was lying on the bed, looking at his face, but he had only been dead for three or four days." “

Yang Qing was suddenly enlightened, and his eyebrows stretched and said: "If Zhao Qingqing only died in the past two days, then it will be difficult to match the time to resurrect the soul, which is enough to show that Huo Xiaoyu is lying." The words fell and hesitated a little: "But today Feng Sheng went to investigate, and he didn't see the body in Zhao Qingqing's boudoir, and the adult's words are unfounded, so what should I do?" ”

Shen Zetang picked up the cup to eat tea, and then looked up at him: "Do you have time tonight?" ”

Yang Qing didn't know how he could ask this, there was room for the jaw head.

Shen Zetang smiled and said, "That night, we went to the Zhongling Spring in Jinshan together." ”

"What are you going to do?" Yang Qing's body stiffened, and he felt that an ominous thought flashed through his mind, and sure enough, it ........

“........ Go dig Zhao Qingqing's grave! ”
