Chapter 208: The Lost Jewels

At the third watch, the people in the city had already turned off the lights and rested, but the people of the Bai family were still looking for their second son all over the city, and many people came out to scold the street, but the other party was the Bai family, and the people could only quietly return to the house and be silent until the Bai family was looking for the second son.

Chu Lixue was sleeping sweetly in the room, when she suddenly heard a noisy sound, and the little maid guarding the door was also woken up by a rapid knock.

As soon as the little guy opened the door, he didn't ask what the visitor was going to do, when he was pushed away by several strong men who were five big and three thick, and a group of people swaggered into the Ling Mansion.

The people who came relied on their strong bodies and felt more and more that they were on the top, so they broke into the inner courtyard all the time. When Wanyue, Rean Xue, and Li Ping heard the voice, they rushed to Chu Lixue's door with their long swords.

"Who are you? actually broke into the Ling Mansion late at night. The waning moon sword pointed at it and said coldly.

"We are here to find our second son, in the morning the second son said that he came to send a congratulatory gift to your county lord, who knows that the time is like this, and I haven't seen my second son return home, isn't it that your county lord is lonely, and it is not possible to keep my second son overnight?" One of the leading men smirked.

really wants to splash dirty water on Chu Lixue all the time, even if their second son loses it, they can have something to do with Chu Lixue, which is really enough.

"Your second son-in-law? Didn't he leave with the second son of the Guo family? How did you run to Lingfu to find it? Wanyue said coldly.

"Oops? Little girl, sharp teeth, but, uncle, I like a little pepper like you, how about it, do you want to find a place, I am happy with the uncle? The man in the lead looked at Wanyue Dao with a squint.

Princess Chen, the lord of Qinghe County, has a beautiful appearance, even if they just want to, it is useless, but they didn't expect that the few girls around her are also outstanding, and they are definitely no less than a boudoir lady from a rich family.

"You'd better keep your mouth clean, or this girl will pull your tongue out."

"Oh, it's really amazing, come on, you pull it out?" The man said as he stuck his tongue out and licked his lips. And a group of people around him also followed suit.

Even if she has a good cultivation, it is difficult for her to suppress the anger in her heart when she encounters such a scoundrel, it is too late, it is fast, the long sword of the waning moon has pierced into the man's mouth, just a beautiful spin, the man screamed in pain, and spit out a large mouthful of black-red blood in his mouth, and half a tongue was mixed with those blood.

The man rolled on the ground in pain, and the people who were watching the excitement just now didn't dare to make a sound anymore, and when they heard the word Wanyue rolling, they hurriedly ran out of the Ling Mansion with the leading man as if they had been amnestied.

At this time, another team of people looking for Bai Shaofei on the street found Bai Shaofei with a bleeding head at the back door of Guo's mansion. But no matter what he called, Bai Shaofei didn't wake up.

This group of family members could only put Bai Shaofei and the woman in the carriage and take them back to the Chengen Mansion. Since his father was demoted from a first-class Taifu to a scholar, his uncle and third uncle also moved from here to build their own mansions.

When Bai Shaofei returned to the house, Su saw that he was injured like this, crying and shouting to let the old man call the shots for her son, and he must find out who beat his son like this.

Cheng Engong also heard Jia Ding say just now that Bai Shaofei was found from the back door of Guo's mansion, but why did Bai Shaofei go to Guo's mansion? Why did he fall at the door of Guo's mansion? Still so badly injured?

"You said that the second son was found at the back door of Guo's mansion?" Cheng Engong said coldly.

"Yes, old lady, at that time, the second son's head was full of blood, as if it had been knocked on the stone at the back door of Guo's mansion." Jia Ding replied truthfully.

"Guo family, didn't the second prince say today that he would go to the east of the city to find the bad luck of the county lord of Qinghe? Why did you go to Guo's mansion? ”

"I heard that the second son of the Guo family also went today, did the two of them leave together again?" Jia Ding wondered.

After listening to the family's story, the old lady of the Bai family already had a plan in his heart, it should be that Bai Shaofei had some conflict with the second son of the Guo family, right, didn't he take Qin Xiang with him when he went out? Wait a while and ask Qin Xiang to know everything?

Thinking of this, Old Lady Bai said in a deep voice: "Is Qin Xiang awake?" When she woke up, she called her to come and see me, and I wanted to know how the second son's injury came about. ”

As soon as the words fell, Qin Xiang had already walked in, and when he saw Old Lady Bai respectfully saluting, Old Lady Bai looked at the gauze wrapped around her head, and half of the anger in his heart was extinguished.

"Qin Xiang, didn't you go to Ling Mansion today? How could it get hurt? Did someone from Lingfu beat it? ”

"No, old lady, it's Guo Ergongzi, he had a dispute with the second son, and injured the second son and the concubine, what happened later, the concubine didn't know. When I woke up just now, I heard the girl who was waiting for her say that she found us at the back door of Guo's mansion. ”

"What do you say? Is it Guo Yan's stinky boy who injured Shaofei? Old Lady Bai couldn't believe it.

Old lady Bai learned from Qin Xiang's mouth that Bai Shaofei was injured by Guo Yan, but he couldn't figure out why? There is no contradiction between the Bai family and the Guo family, if it is really a contradiction, that is, in recent days, Guo Qilan's miscarriage, but it cannot be determined that Bai Ruyan did it.

As the saying goes, catch thieves and catch stolen goods, and they have no substantial evidence to prove that Guo Qilan's miscarriage is as white as smoke. And he also sent someone to secretly ask Bai Ruyan about this matter, and Bai Ruyan insisted that she had just prepared something and had not yet implemented it.

If Bai Ruyan didn't lie, then there was someone else who harmed Guo Qilan's miscarriage, could it be the county lord of Qinghe? It's impossible, she has already left King Chen's mansion, and she is even ready to leave the book, which shows her determination to break with King Chen, so which of King Chen's concubines has a child has nothing to do with the county lord of Qinghe.

It seems that everything still has to wait until Bai Shaofei wakes up to know, and when the grandmother who was waiting for Bai Shaofei changed Bai Shaofei's clothes, he found that Bai Shaofei's jade pendant was missing.

That piece of jade pendant was handed down by the ancestors of the Bai family, and the old lady Bai didn't give it to anyone, but just gave it to Bai Shaofei, the reason for this, everyone in the Bai family knows it, in fact, people outside also know it, just for the sake of face, Bai Shaofei is still the second son in the house, not the fifth master.

"Qin Xiang, did Guo Yan do anything to Shaofei?"

"Well...... yes, when Guo Ergongzi pushed and shoved with the second son, the second son's jade pendant fell out, and after the second son found out, he picked it up and regarded it as a treasure, at that time Guo Ergongzi still wanted to grab it and take a look, but the second son didn't show him."

What else is there to say about this? It is clear that Guo Yan is interested in seeing wealth, which hurts people, but why doesn't he leave people somewhere else, but instead at the back door of his own house? Isn't this telling others that this matter has something to do with him?

Old lady Bai really got angrier and angrier the more he thought about it, he couldn't imagine that the famous Guo family would hurt people for a piece of heirloom jade pendant, so what about the next time he saw something better? Will you kill people in order to satisfy your desires?

Old lady Bai and the Su family kept watch by Bai Shaofei's bed all night, after all, it was his own son, how could he not feel distressed.

"Master, you must be the master of Shaofei, why are their Guo family bullying people so much." Su Shi was full of displeasure.

"Oh, okay, I got it. Guo Yan, the old man will definitely not let him go. Old lady Bai said in a deep voice.

Bai Shaofei didn't wake up until noon the next day, but the injury on his head told him that his pain was all caused by Guo Yan. And he must get it back.

When Old Lady Bai asked why Bai Shaofei fell at the back door of Guo's mansion, Bai Shaofei didn't know, but he hated Guo Yan for hurting himself, so he might as well put all the blame on Guo Yan.

And after Guo Yan went back with the jewels at that time, Mei Zizi slept with the jewels in his arms all night, knowing that his father Guo Xian came home from the next dynasty, so he held these jewels in front of Guo Xian to show off.

"Dad, you see, this is the jewel that my son secretly went to the rockery to get back yesterday when the county lord of Qinghe was entertaining guests and was overwhelmed. The whole six big boxes, it seems that they have not been passive, and the county lord of Qinghe really doesn't know that there are treasures in the rockery. Guo Yan said proudly.

"Yan'er, you are really a good son of your father, you actually thought of this way, whether the house comes back or not is secondary, and the most important thing is the jewels in the rockery." Guo Xian said proudly.

He couldn't stop looking at those jewels in his hand, and suddenly, Guo Xian's face changed, these jewels were all fake. Guo Xian's cold eyes swept over Guo Yan, gritted his teeth and said, "Yan'er, you got these jewels back yesterday?" ”

"Yes, father, the son was afraid of delaying your affairs, so he didn't say it."

"Hmph, didn't you say anything for fear of delaying me? I don't think you want to say it. ”

"Father, my son definitely didn't have such thoughts, but last night, my son was so excited that he slept with these jewels in his arms, didn't I bring them over as soon as you came back?" Guo Yan was a little hesitant.

Guo Xian is such a shrewd person, he naturally knows his three sons very well, Guo Yan must have used a day to find some fakes, and then gave them to himself, and most of the real goods were hidden by himself or returned to the gambling debts.

"You still won't tell the truth?" Guo Xian grabbed some jewels on the table tightly.

But Guo Yan still looks like I'm very filial, I'm not wrong, Guo Xian couldn't suppress the anger in his heart anymore, slammed the jewelry in his hand to the ground, and said coldly: "Where did these jewels go?" Do you still want to scam me with these fakes? ”

What the? Fake? How is this possible? This is what he took out of the rockery, how can it be fake? "Father, father, it really has nothing to do with the son, maybe, maybe this jewelry was discovered by the county lord of Qinghe, and then she put those fake jewelry?" Guo Yan reminded.

Hearing Guo Yan say this, Guo Xian also stopped the blue and white porcelain teapot that was about to smash on Guo Yan's body. But if the county lord of Qinghe knew where those jewels were hidden, he could have moved the jewels to the place, but he sent people to monitor outside the mansion, and he didn't see a large box of objects coming in and out? That can only mean one thing, and that is that these jewels have already been dropped.
