Chapter 348: Rouge Box
Hearing Shuoshan say this, everyone in the room looked at the top of the pillar, except for the pillar that had just been pulled down by Shuoshan, the top of the other three pillars also had something like the cylindrical lid that Shuoshan was holding in his hand.
"What's in the pillar?" Si Yunlan asked.
Hearing this, Shuoshan bent down and looked into the pillar, but it was pitch black inside, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"It's too dark to see." Shuoshan said truthfully.
Si Yunlan frowned slightly when he heard this, he looked at the huge mountain climbing on top of the bed, something was wrong!
If they did hide something secret in a pillar, it shouldn't be so difficult to get hold of, and it would be too much trouble to climb on top of the bed for every access.
And although this pillar is thicker than other bedposts, it is only comparative, in fact, it is still slender for people, and it is good to put things here, but it will be too troublesome to take things.
So there must be something else they didn't expect.
Suddenly, Si Yunlan's eyes were on the bed board, he walked over and sat on the bed, touched the bed board along the bedpost, and then touched the back of the bed inch by inch with his backhand.
Really.
Si Yunlan's eyes lit up, and he pulled something exactly the same as the cylindrical lid in Shuoshan's hand from the bottom of the bed with his hand, and as the lid was pulled out, several rouge boxes fell from the pillar.
The rouge box gurgled around the ground a few times before stopping.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the rouge boxes scattered on the ground, the rouge boxes hidden in this place, and they didn't have to think about it to know that it was definitely not a real rouge box.
Seeing this, Shuoshan turned over and rolled over from the top of the bed, and then picked up the rouge boxes scattered on the ground and handed them to Si Yunlan.
There weren't many rouge boxes hidden in the pillars, only three in total.
Si Yunlan picked up a rouge box and held it up in front of him, this rouge box was round, and the size was just a little smaller than the bedpost. Second, a rouge box of this size will not be stuffed into the column because it is too big, nor will it be blocked because it is too small.
The eyes of the officers and soldiers in the room all looked at Si Yunlan, and they thought, I really let the adults find out, but this is not to blame them, who knew that they would hide things in such a secret place.
Si Yunlan put two of the rouge boxes on the bed, and then opened one rouge box, after the rouge box was opened, there was really no rouge in it, and some were just a note.
Si Yunlan unfolded the note, after seeing the content of the note, his eyes changed, and the expression on his face suddenly became cold, he refolded the note and put it into the rouge box, fastened the lid, and then asked people to open the other three pillars as well.
When the lid at the bottom of the pillar was opened, three more rouge boxes fell down.
"My lord, just three." The officers and soldiers handed the rouge box they received to Shuoshan on the side, and Shuoshan handed it to Si Yunlan.
After Si Yunlan took them, he put them into his sleeve along with the three in his hand, and then got up and patted the pleats on his clothes, "I have to tell anyone what happened here." ”
"Yes." Everyone in the room responded, and after staying in the criminal department for a long time, they had already understood when to understand and when to be confused.
After Si Yunlan finished speaking, he left the room with everyone and continued to check in order.
The old bustard and Begonia in the hall noticed that Si Yunlan had been in Begonia's room for a long time, and the two glanced at each other, and they both saw some uneasiness in each other's eyes.
Just when they were thinking nonsense, Si Yunlan came out of the room with someone, and the old bustard looked at them carefully, and saw that there was nothing abnormal on their faces, so he was slightly relieved.
By the way, he gave Begonia a look and signaled her to settle down.
Begonia is also a person who has seen strong winds and waves, but she was a little panicked at first, but now she has adjusted.
In the next inspection, Si Yunlan focused on the bedposts, I don't know if it was for uniform specifications or what, the bedposts of each bed in this Yihong Mansion were hollow like those in the Begonia House.
However, the rouge box did not appear in the bedposts of the other rooms, until they checked the bustard's room.
After pulling open the lid under the bedpost in her room, the rouge box inside rolled to the ground, and at rough glance there were definitely dozens of them.
Si Yunlan asked his subordinates to pick up all the rouge boxes on the ground and put them on the table on the side, and after a while, the rouge boxes on the table were piled up on a hill.
Si Yunlan asked them to pull up the corners of the tablecloth, wrap the rouge box on the table, and then ordered Shuo Shan to stay in the room, and after he took all the people below, let him take his things back to the yamen.
Yes, Si Yunlan plans to take the bustard and the girls in Yihong Mansion to the Criminal Department, because although the identities of the bustard and Begonia spies have been confirmed, they can't expose them on the spot yet.
And they don't know if there are other spies among them, even if there are no spies among them, they may know something as people who get along with the bustard and Begonia day and night.
Therefore, everyone must be taken away to cooperate with the investigation.
These rouge boxes are not yet ready to be used as evidence.
"Take them all?" The squad leader on the side looked surprised, "My lord means to bring the bustards and prostitutes back to the criminal department." ”
There was no precedent for this before, and they didn't have so many cells in the penal department.
"My lord, a while ago, Lord Shangshu has been investigating a non-governmental organization, and many people have been locked in, and there is no place to place so many people in the prison of the Criminal Department." The squad leader said euphemistically.
Si Yunlan had known about this matter for a long time, and he had already prepared, "The back room of the Criminal Department has been cleaned up, and I will take people there first." ”
The team leader saw that Si Yunlan had already made arrangements, so he didn't say anything more.
Yu Shuoshan looked at the rouge box that was beaten into a big bag in the room, and Si Yunlan left the room with someone.
Next, Si Yunlan took someone to check the rest of the room before taking someone downstairs.
"My lord, we don't have any assassins here, do we?" Seeing Si Yunlan coming down, the old bustard hurriedly asked.
"The assassins have already run away, but you still have to go back with us to cooperate with the investigation." Si Yunlan said.
"Go back? Cooperate with the investigation? The bustard never thought he would hear such a sentence.
She looked at Si Yunlan with a flattering smile, "Look, my lord, we are all weak women who are powerless, how can we have anything to do with the assassins."
If you have anything to ask, just ask, the slave family and others will definitely know everything, say everything, and actively cooperate with you. ”
Si Yunlan glanced at her, "Where are there so many words, come here, take them away!" ”
As soon as Si Yunlan gave an order, the surrounding officers and soldiers began to urge them to go out, and the old bustard saw Si Yunlan's resolute attitude, and also reversed the attitude just now, and said, "My lord, although your official is big, we are soft-spoken, but you can't arrest people for no reason.
Although we are just dusty women, don't think that we are easy to bully. ”
Looking at the old bustard whose attitude suddenly became tough, Si Yunlan smiled instead, "Are you threatening me?" ”
