Wei Shan quietly looked at Huo Ran, Huo Ran lowered his eyes, and there was no trace of impatience on his face.

"Shizi," Lu Tao shouted impatiently, "You come to find your own sister, just go in directly, what are you waiting for?" ”

"When my father was here, he was very fond of my sister, and often told us that my sister was a girl's family, a delicate guest, and she must be taken care of." Huo Ran turned his head with a serious face: "Now that my father is gone, I should take good care of my sister!" What's more, my sister has saved me from danger many times. ”

"What save-"

"Lu Tao, don't be rude to your sister!" Huo Ran directly interrupted Lu Tao's words, "If you are still so rude in the future, even if you have been kind to me, please forgive me for not being able to keep you." ”

"Shizi-" Lu Tao's face turned red.

Qin Lang hurriedly played a round game: "Shizi, Lu Tao is just straightforward and fast-talking, you must not be like him." Third brother, quickly apologize to the prince. ”

"Shizi, I was wrong." Lu Tao apologized awkwardly in Qin Lang's murderous eyes.

"Ah Tao, you don't know your sister's beauty and kindness, that's why you misunderstood her. She has loved small animals very much since she was a child, and never let people hurt them; When we are wandering, even if we don't have anything to eat, we will give the last food to others, and there is no better person in the world than her! Huo Ran spoke with admiration about the past of the county lord of Mingyue, and did not mention the conflict just now.

Wei Shan watched coldly from the side, Huo Ran's anger, Lu Tao's embarrassment, and Qin Lang's surprise were all in mind.

"Brother." The courtyard door opened, and Mingyue with a veil and four maids appeared in front of her, obviously she heard Huo Ran's last words, her eyes were shy, and her pink neck was slightly red.

"The lower official has seen the county lord." Wei Shan took a step forward respectfully, "When we met, I didn't know the identity of the county lord, and it was rude, so I asked the county lord Haihan." ”

"Lord Wei, please get up quickly." Mingyue saw Wei Shan doing this great gift, so she hurriedly stepped forward and helped Wei Shan up, her eyes flustered: "Those who don't know are not to blame." ”

Wei Shan's eyes looked at Mingyue's delicate and slender fingers on his arm, and he couldn't help but tremble.

"Sister, there is something to discuss with my sister, I wonder if it is convenient now?" Huo Ran asked respectfully.

Mingyue Mei rolled her eyes and said angrily: "You and my sister and brother, why are you so polite?" Let's go in and talk! ”

Huo Ran took Wei Shan, Qin Lang, and Lu Tao into Mingyue Garden.

"This was given to me by my sister yesterday." Huo Ran took out the chic key from his waist and pushed it in front of Mingyue: "I thought about it, since my father gave it to you and me, why don't we open it together." ”

Mingyue's eyes flashed: "If it is given to you, it is your thing." ”

"Sister, are you angry with me?" Huo Ran nervously held Mingyue's hand: "Sister is simple and kind, I'm also worried about my sister-okay, Lord Wei is also here today, please let him be a witness for us!" ”

"Shizi, county lord, this—this doesn't seem appropriate-" Wei Shan hesitated a little, but his hand under the table couldn't help but clench.

"There's nothing wrong with that, I'm dealing with this stuff today." Huo Ran said generously, "I don't know what my father left behind, but since it was given by my father and my mother, I naturally have a share of my sister." Sister, go ahead! ”

Mingyue looked at Huo Ran's earnest eyes, and her heart couldn't help but soften: "You-"

Wei Shan wanted to retire, but Huo Ran and Mingyue kept at the same time, and finally he reluctantly agreed to be a witness.

"Sister, look at the pattern on this key, does it look like the back garden which one we played hide and seek when we were kids?" Huo Ran pointed to the side of the key.

"Not bad!" Mingyue said in surprise, "My father told me at the time: Just because I am in this mountain, it seems that this is what I mean!" Let's go! ”

Huo Ran agreed with a smile, and the five of them, with a few servants, walked to the back garden.

Mingyue couldn't hide her excitement and wanted to get into the rockery, but Huo Ran grabbed her: "Sister, let's go and see it first!" ”

"I don't know what the hell is going on inside, how can I let my brother go first?" Mingyue retorted.

"County Lord, why don't I check it out with the prince?" Wei Shan suddenly spoke.

"It's okay, there's Lord Laowei." Huo Ran thanked him.

Wei Shan followed behind Huo Ran and looked carefully, the dust here was indeed something that no one had been here for a long time.

"Shizi, look-" Wei Shan suddenly stopped Huo Ran.

Huo Ran looked at a raised stone on the rockery, but because of his height, he couldn't see it.

"Lord Wei, I'm still bothering you." Huo Ran said shyly.

Wei Shan didn't refuse, and secretly laughed in his heart: "It's still a child who is just ten years old." ”

Wei Shan took out the key, took out a handkerchief, carefully wiped the dust off the stone, and then received it in his sleeve before inserting the key into the stone.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak-" The rockery is like a door, moving slowly, revealing a hole that is the height of an adult.

Wei Shan and Huo Ran looked at each other in surprise.

"Wait, please come over first." Huo Ran stopped Wei Shan's step.

Wei Shan stopped his body a little embarrassed: "The lower official is rude." ”

"You're also here for my safety." Huo Ran didn't take it to heart.

Mingyue, Qin Lang, and Lu Tao, who heard the voice outside, walked in.

"Shizi, please let the lowly post enter first!" Qin Lang came over and asked firmly.

Wei Shan's eyes rolled: "To put it mildly, I'm the oldest here, how can I let you children take risks?" I'll do it anyway! After Wei Shan finished speaking, without waiting for the opposition of others, he directly bent down and entered the cave.

Huo Ran, Mingyue, and Qin Lang followed, and Lu Tao stayed outside according to Huo Ran's instructions.

Inside was a downward staircase, barely a meter wide, and Wei Shan walked down cautiously with a firecracker.

Huo Ran carefully supported Mingyue.

"The prince loves his daughter!" Finally reaching the lowest level and seeing the contents clearly, Wei Shan couldn't help but sigh.

"Father, mother-" Mingyue also saw the boxes of things inside, with a crescent moon engraved on them, and immediately understood where they belonged.

"Shizi," Wei Shan thought in his heart, and looked at Huo Ran, who was calming Mingyue in a gentle voice, seriously: "Now there are still remnants of the traitorous party, let's open it and check it, in case they know that the prince loves his daughter, and use it-"

"W-How is this possible?" Mingyue was a little flustered.

"Lord Wei is reasonable, it's better to open it now and take a look." Huo Ran said angrily.

"What a shrewd child." Wei Shan admired in his heart, knowing that he understood his purpose, but where his duty lies, he can only be a wicked person who bullies young and weak girls.

That night, in the guest room-

"Respectfully, Your Majesty! Tomorrow we will depart for Beijing. Today, I finally lived up to my holy hope, and I have found out everything. ”

On that day, Prince Xing entrusted a pair of children to eight personal guards, five of whom were killed, in addition to one by the prince's side, two escaped. Weichen has found it and confirmed that King Xing gave a key to the county lord. Nothing else. ”

"Today, Weichen, the county lord, and the prince opened the secret room with a key. There are a total of twenty-four boxes inside, of which fourteen are dowries prepared by Prince Xing and Princess Xing for Lord Mingyue, and the rest are also gold and silver jewelry, which are left for the prince of Mingrui. ”

"Mingrui Shizi is smart, but kind-hearted, and he did not forget to save other young people when he fled abroad, and only four boxes were left today, and the rest were handed over to Weichen for the reconstruction of the city."

"The prince of Mingrui cares very much about the county lord of Mingyue, the county lord of Mingyue, and he is naïve and ignorant of the world."

Wei Shan stopped his pen, rubbed his neck, and sighed: "That's it." ”

There is a pigeon resting on the windowsill.

"Lord Wei, have you rested?"

Wei Shan just watched the pigeon fly out of the window, and Huo Ran's voice came from outside the courtyard gate, he closed the window in a panic, and hurriedly replied: "No, rest." ”

Huo Ran waited quietly.

"Bang!"

"Did you catch it?"

"Don't look at who I am? My dad is the last hunter! ”

"What a fat pigeon!"

"Don't have any bad ideas!"
