In the afterglow of the setting sun, Jiang Yanshi's white-clothed white horse rushed out of the city gate like an arrow from the string, and the small servants followed closely with the longitudinal horse, and went straight to five or six miles outside the city.

The steward greeted Liuyun Villa for more than half a mile, saw Jiang Yanshi from a distance, hurriedly urged the horse to catch up, and when he turned the horse's head again, Jiang Yanshi had already crossed him and rushed out more than two feet away, and the steward followed the horse, chased straight to the gate of the villa, turned over and dismounted, and ran to catch up.

"Something's wrong?" Jiang Yanshi asked in a cold voice as he strode in.

"Yes, halfway up, he tripped over the mechanism and alarmed Chen Jiang. I had to hold some and withdraw. The steward hung his head guiltily.

"Chen Jiang saw someone? What threads are left behind? Jiang Yanshi entered the second gate, turned around and went straight to an exquisite courtyard not far from the second gate.

"I didn't see anyone, it was a small one who took people there, Chen Jiang's residence, and the Zhang family's house, there must not be anything left, the peripheral threads, Shen Da left, and is checking and cleaning up for the third time."

"Hmm." Jiang Yanshi's voice was obviously much soothed, "Has Mr. Mo arrived?" ”

"Just arrived." The steward replied and looked up at the small courtyard, at the entrance of the small courtyard, Mo Taojiang was wearing a white fine cotton shirt, and he had already arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

Jiang Yanshi's steps were a few steps tighter, and after four or five steps away, he arched his hand and smiled: "Let Mr. wait, it shouldn't be very much." ”

"I just arrived, I don't have to be on an errand, my son is polite." Mo Taojiang shook his head to the end, turned sideways to let Jin Jiang Yonsei, and the two went in side by side.

"Has the gentleman seen something?" Jiang Yanshi followed Mo Taojiang's steps, much slower than before.

"Not yet, I just asked about it, this Chen Jiang is as careful as a hair, and he is clever, that organ is simply unguardable, and he can't blame them." Mo Yuanjiang's words were full of sighs.

"Chen Jiang is a cool official, so he is naturally good at scheming." Jiang Yanshi was very contemptuous of Chen Jiang.

"Hmm." Mo Yuanjiang responded, let him enter the river first, and then enter the house himself.

The three-bay room was all open, surrounded by either windows or bookshelves, and in the middle was a huge bookcase, which was now full of volumes.

"These are all these, and a lot of them are brought back." Mo Taojiang pointed to the volume on the bookcase, looking very satisfied.

Jiang Yanshi circled around the bookcase for half a circle, mumbled, looked at the steward who followed up and stood at the door with his hands down, and asked, "How many are there?" ”

"There are six large iron chests, all of the same size, and this is what they look like when they were taken from one of the boxes." The steward's voice was full of nervousness and timidity, Mr. Mo just boasted that he had taken a lot, and his words were just slapped in his face, and he only took these, and capsized the boat, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to have another chance in the future.

Jiang Yanshi's face changed slightly, Mo Taojiang looked at Jiang Yanshi and sighed softly, "Six boxes, this is half of one of the six boxes......"

"One of the twelve." Jiang Yanshi answered in a cold voice.

The steward, who was standing at the door, knelt on the ground.

"Get up, I didn't expect so much, I can't blame you, go out and watch." Jiang Yanshi motioned to the steward, and the steward kowtowed a few times, hurriedly stood up, lowered his hand and withdrew, and stood at the gate of the courtyard.

Mo Yuanjiang had already taken the booklet, turned a few pages, took a few steps back, sat on a chair, and looked at Jiang Yanshi, "Although it is only less than one tenth, we are already extremely lucky." I asked carefully just now, six boxes, the same size, they all brought it up and tried it, the weight is about the same, that is, let's take the lead, it is good to miss it, after this time, it is difficult for us to have another chance, and others are the same. ”

"Hmm." Jiang Yanshi took the booklet from Mo Taojiang's hand, flipped through it quickly, and took a light breath. Looking at Mo Taojiang, he didn't know what to say.

"We're very lucky." Mo Taojiang's voice was very soft.

Jiang Yanshi gently put down the book, nodded, and nodded again.

"In the past few days, I've stayed here and sorted out these things, it's really God's help to the prince, God's help to the prince." Mo Taojiang looked a little excited.

"Thank you, sir." Jiang Yanshi sat next to Mo Taojiang, frowning slightly, "That Zhu Xi, did Mr. find out anything?" ”

"No, Zhu Xi was born in the capital and grew up in the capital, his affairs are very easy to check, this person can win Chen Jiang's favor, I told my son, I don't think it's very surprising. He is the same as Chen Jiang, there are strange and difficult cases, Chen Jiang doesn't want fame or merit, he just wants to be able to get in and solve the mystery, Zhu Xi is the more difficult and strange the case, the less silver he wants, and he doesn't even want money to contribute to others, these two people have the same spleen and stomach. ”

Mo Taojiang didn't feel strange about Chen Jiang's acceptance of Zhu Xi, he was just the master.

"Mr. Bu said that I have always wanted to find someone like Zhu Xi and send it to Chen Jiang to be a friend with a similar spleen and stomach, this is one. Second, sir, think about it, Chen Jiang only has two servants, one old and one young, and Zhu Xi has a lot of silver, but after all, he is a lawsuit mixed in the lower ninth rate, how did these six big iron boxes avoid our eyeliner and be transported into Chen Jiang's small courtyard? ”

Jiang Yanshi trusted his instincts.

Mo Taojiang frowned, "Chen Jiang should have this ability, Zhu Xi should not be underestimated, and the son should not underestimate the ninth rate." ”

"Hmm." Jiang Yanshi was silent for a moment, snorted, and said no more, "Mr. has been concentrating on sorting out these volumes in the past few days, I will rush back now, if I have time, please see the prince in the evening, I have to talk to him about this matter as soon as possible, and Chen Jiang's side, maybe tomorrow morning, Chen Jiang will make a move, see how he responds." ”

"Well, the prince's side, the prince ......" Mo Taojiang's words were vague, and Jiang Yanshi nodded, "I know, it's just a half-sentence, if you don't say it, it's useless to say more." ”

"That's it." Mo Taojiang laughed, stood up and sent Jiang Yanshi to the gate of the courtyard, turned back, and buried his head in the scroll.

Jiang Yanshi walked dozens of steps, slowed down, and instructed the steward who came out, "Zhu Xi, add more manpower, twelve hours a day, keep an eye on me all the time!" ”

"Yes!" The steward agreed in a deep voice.

Jiang Yanshi left Liuyun Villa, and was just about to get on the horse, and called the steward to instruct: "Pick a few reliable ones with neatly written words, bring them to Mr. Mo, and tell Mr. Mo to copy out a copy of those things, and the originals must be stored separately." ”

"Yes." The steward agreed, watched Jiang Yanshi ride away, and until he couldn't see it, he turned around and entered the villa, ordered people to be added everywhere, and then personally picked out four or five words written and gave them to Mo Taojiang.
