Chapter 276: Two Gold Bricks (Two More in One)
It rained again in the afternoon.
It was menacing, but fortunately it stopped before it was over.
Xu Jian took Shenchen to Chenmi Hutong again.
This time, when I went in, most of the alleys were in a mess.
Wan Tang made up his mind to dig three feet into the ground, and mobilized manpower from this morning.
Xu Jian stood at the mouth of the alley and looked at the house, and half of the trees that had been high out of the courtyard wall were gone.
On the contrary, in the open space outside the house, there are piles of sawn tree trunks, and there are many broken branches that are simply sorted out but not cleaned, and they are all blocked on the road, and the alley, which is not very wide, is becoming more and more crowded, and it is difficult to get off the ground.
Xu Jian took some effort to walk in.
The gold bricks are a little heavy on him, and because of the road conditions, sometimes he has to think more about his feet.
When Wantang heard that Xu Jian was coming, he hurried out of the house, looked up and saw the slightly unstable figure of Fu Guogong, and he was quite upset.
He didn't think that Xu Jian was "moving forward with weight" at all, but he thought that his legs and feet were not good.
Wantang has two sons, who emerged as teenagers, and now when he can't control it the most, he also loses to playing a small martial arts practice, squandering most of his energy, and he has been on the school field all day, tired and out of breath, and he has no time to make trouble for him.
The two stinky boys shouted tired every day, but Wan Tang knew that their little sharpening was nothing compared to the generals who were really trained to fight on the battlefield.
Like Fu Guogong, the hardships and sweat of practicing martial arts back then cannot be explained clearly in a few words.
The young man who used to gallop on horseback is now embarrassed by the road blocked by the trunk and branches.
That's really ......
Wan Tang looked strange and uncomfortable.
"Let you all pile up, why did you make such a mess," he cried out, "I don't have a place to stay, hurry up and clean up again, don't come to me for compensation if you stumble and lose your teeth, I warned you."
Xu Jian said hello to Wan Tang, and the two entered the house together.
The inside of the house is even more chaotic than the outside.
The trees were dug up, leaving pits one by one, and it rained for days, and the soil was full of water, mud, and slimy.
Wantang didn't let Xu Jian go to the dirt floor, but only walked along the corridor: "You can dig out that yard before dark, light the lights at night, and dig these houses."
Xu Jian said, "Have you checked all the flower hall rooms? Didn't find the vault?"
"No, this place is full of bells and whistles, I thought there would be, but I haven't found anything now," Wan Tang sighed, "Didn't Grandpa Guo also walk around here for a while yesterday?" I think this house is used to entertain the prince, and the other party is cautious, where will he leave us clues?"
"Then you can only use the soil method, digging little by little." Xu Jiandao.
Wan Tang wiped his face.
He had mud on his hands, and the left half of his face became a flower face, he didn't care, he just said the case: "If you do it, you will get it, and I'm afraid that if you dig it down, you won't get anything."
The posture of the morning today is not at all different from what we guessed yesterday, they all have their own ghosts.
They can hold it now, and in a few days, we'll still have no progress here, hey!"
Xu Jian smiled.
Wan Tang said again: "Grandpa Guo later went to the imperial study, what did the saint say?"
"Holy Wisdom," Xu Jian said succinctly, "someone has ulterior motives, and it is not easy for the yamen to act, and he knows it all in his heart."
"He has a number, he can't stand his son's number......" Wan Tang muttered, reacting that he said something he shouldn't have said, and couldn't help but smile, "I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything."
"Lord Wan is busy first," Xu Jian said, "I'll go around again, if only I could find something."
Wantang should naturally go down.
Xu Jian took Samchen to the inner courtyard and walked until he walked to the house where Li Shao and Liu Xun were found that day.
This place has been raided several times, and all the valuable things have been removed, and the worthless ones have fallen around, leaving a mess in their wake.
Xu Jian didn't look at it
On the ground, he raised his head, looked carefully at the roof beams, and then called out to Shenchen.
"Go up to a corner." He said.
He knows how to copy too well.
As a deputy, he has copied the Anyi Mansion, and he has also experienced the copying of the Sincerity Bo Mansion and the Fuguo Mansion, and he knows where to copy and what to ignore.
Unless there is a deep hatred in the sea of blood and hatred of the other party, otherwise, no presiding officer will check the beams and pillars and under the tiles everywhere, and the officials who do it below will not do such a thankless thing.
The place is small, and I can't hide anything, but to Xu Jianer, it is enough to hide two gold bricks.
The gold bricks were wrapped in a piece of cotton cloth.
In order to be realistic, Xu Jian turned out this piece from the corner of the warehouse.
The material itself is good, but it has been sitting for many years and is dirty.
Sanchen is very careful in his work.
After choosing the position, according to the size of the cloth bag, first collect all the ash on the cloth, and then press the cloth bag on.
After making sure everything was ready, Shenchen looked down and nodded at Xu Jian.
Xu Jian was not in a hurry, and after turning around in the flower hall a few more times, he gestured to Shenchen.
The clouds were thick, and suddenly it rained again.
Wantang was already holding back the fire in his belly, and he complained about the weather.
When he heard someone call him, he turned his head unhappily, but was startled by the appearance of the comer.
It was Sanchen who came.
I don't know what I did just now, his clothes are full of dust, he should have dusted them, but he didn't clean them all, and his originally white and clean face was also stained with dust.
It's embarrassing.
Wan Tang hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"Find something," Samchen said, "Grandpa Guo will let Lord Wan take a look."
When Wan Tang heard this, he hurriedly beckoned him to go together: "Where did you find it? What is it?"
"There is no dark room, there is no cellar, so Grandpa Guo said that he can't look for it, so I will climb up to the roof beam," Samchen said, "There was a bag hidden in a corner, I took it down, and there were two gold bricks in it."
Wantang had a toothache when he heard it.
I blamed myself for not being open-minded enough, and I thought of digging the ground, but I didn't think of demolishing the house first.
Second, this harvest is a bit strange.
However, it is better to have a gain than not to have a harvest.
All the way around, Wan Tang saw Xu Jian standing outside the flower hall.
"Breathe." Xu Jiandao.
Wan Tang looked inside and immediately understood.
I don't know how long the burden had been on it, it was all thick ash, and when they opened the cloth bag earlier, the ash was scattered indoors.
Wan Tang covered his mouth and nose and took a gold brick.
It's heavy and heavy, it should be that Shenchen has also looked through it after opening the baggage, and there is a little dust on the surface.
Xu Jian pointed to Wan Tang: "I found it from that corner, and I also went to see it on the beam next door, but I didn't get anything."
"Rich," Wan Tang snorted, "just stay here and forget about it?"
Xu Jian pretended to think: "I don't know if Master Wan still remembers, when I was in Shuntian Mansion last year, Master Shan tried a case. The king kept saying in the sixth year that he was looking for two boxes of gold bricks."
Of course, Wan Tang remembered, "What does Fu Guogong mean, this is what are in those two boxes?"
"I don't know," Xu Jian said, "the gold bricks don't have a name, but I just remembered it."
The news was sent back to Suncheonfu.
Shan Shen hurried over, looking at the two gold bricks, his face embarrassed.
Wan Tang came down from the roof beam.
He went up to see it himself, and the man was tricky, and if he hadn't looked carefully after going up the beam, it would have been difficult to find that there was something hidden on it.
Samchen's skills are good, and in order to move on the top, he also left a lot of marks, and wiped a little east and west.
"I look at the gray one," Wan Tang said as he patted his clothes, dust gushing into his mouth and nose, he choked several times, and finally slowed down
He continued, "This cloth has been hidden there for seven or eight years, to say the least."
Shan Shen doesn't have the same ability as them.
The official moved the ladder, and Master Shan set it up nearby, holding the ladder in one hand and the oil lamp in the other, and leaned over to take a serious look.
According to his eyes, it is not easy to tell.
It's too dark, and it has been checked by Shenchen and Wantang one after another, and the situation here is naturally different from before it was discovered.
Oil lamps should not be too close together to avoid accidents.
Shan Shen fell to the ground, and went to look at the cloth bag again: "This material seems to be good."
"Wrapped in gold bricks." Wantang Road.
Shan Shen picked up the gold brick and looked at it.
He looked very closely, looking back and forth at the oil lamp, and naturally, he found the trace. net
He let out a "huh".
Wan Tang hurriedly asked, "What did you find?"
Shan Shen handed the gold brick in his hand to Wan Tang, and took another one for himself to continue reading.
Wantang painted the gourd in the same way.
"Is there a Dao Seal?" Wantang frowned, "Stumbling?"
"You won't hit this position even if you knock it," Shan Shen said, dipping his hand in some water and drawing the trace, "Are both like this?"
Hearing this, Xu Jian took the two gold bricks.
He just observed it carefully, and it looked like he had seen it for the first time.
"It seems to be the same," Xu Jian said, "the marks on the mold?"
Wan Tang didn't speak, and was silent for a while at the traces drawn by Shan Shen, and then said, "Old Shan, this, this image is not like what he wrote before......
Shan Shen didn't react for a while: "Which one?"
Wan Tang's heart was horizontal: "The abolished prince, the master of the sixth year of the king, Li Mi, did he write the character Mi like this before?"
Cautious eyes are full of Venus.
How did he forget about this stubble!
How many times did Wang shout in his yamen in the sixth year of the gold bricks, before the gold bricks, and after the gold bricks!
The appearance of two gold bricks suddenly gave the case a way forward.
Shan Shen interrogated Liu Xun again and asked him if he knew Li Mi? What does it have to do with Li Mi's old ministry? Was he trapped, or did he want to trap the prince?
Liu Xun was dumbfounded.
Of course he knew about Li Mi, but he had nothing to do with Li Mi.
He just found a good place for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, why is the development of the future more and more outrageous?
"So, it was Li Mi's people who introduced the place to me?" Liu Xun asked Shan Shen rhetorically, "He is a deposed prince and a commoner, and he still comes to harm His Highness?"
In the thousand-step corridor, Liu Jing also received the news and hurried to Shuntian Mansion.
"Xun'er and Li Mi are absolutely not involved," Liu Jing and Shan Shen said, "When Li Mi was demoted, he was only a few years old!"
Shan Shen patted Liu Jing on the shoulder: "Lord Liu, you have also been sharpened in the officialdom for so many years, you can understand the wind and grass in the court, what is the current situation of His Royal Highness, and what is the situation of Ling Lang, you can judge it yourself." My advice to you is to make some trade-offs."
Liu Jing's face turned pale.
After the incident, he knew what he would face, but until the last moment, he was unwilling to give up.
"If you get into Li Mi, you have to peel off the skin if you don't die," Shan Shen said again, "I know that you are reluctant, in the end it is your own son, but you don't think about yourself, you also consider Mrs. Zun and Ling Yan, and they still want your support." If you insist on being with Ling Lang, who cares about them?"
Liu Jing was distraught, and said, "Isn't there still an auxiliary prince?"
Shan Shen glanced at him.
Liu Jing knew that his tone was wrong, wiped his face, and apologized to Shan Shen: "I'm really upset."
"Understand," Shan Shen said again, "But you also think about it, Grandpa Guo is also a son, right?" Before, Xu Guogong's Mansion ......"
Point to point.
Shan Shen said this, and did not continue.
Liu Jing's mood was even worse than just now.
The situation of him and Xu Guogong, how
How could it be?
Of Xu Guogong's three sons, Su Ke is not the only one surnamed Su, and there are two older brothers above.
Xu Guogong gave up Su Ke for the sake of his own future, and he also had two sons.
But what about him Liu Jing?
Will Xu Jian recognize him as a father?
Xu Jian is not surnamed Liu at all!
The only one who can bear the incense of the Liu family is Liu Xun.
The son he loves is only Liu Xun.
Let him give up his only son, how, how can he be ruthless?
"What about the Arjans?" Liu Jing barely stabilized his mind and asked Shan Shen, "I want to ask him again."
Shan Shen shook his head: "He has entered the palace, such an important matter must be reported immediately."
Liu Jing left Shuntian Mansion.
He stumbled and almost fell down the steps.
He barely stabilized his figure and returned to Liu's mansion in a sedan chair.
The gate of Liu's Mansion was ajar.
Liu Jing pushed the door in, but there was no housekeeper to greet him, he was suspicious and continued to walk inside.
Before I got to the second gate, I heard a commotion inside.
"What's going on?" Liu Jing strode over.
When Steward Tao heard this, he hurriedly came over to help him: "Grandma is clamoring to go back to her parents' house and move all her things back."
Liu Jing raised his head and looked at the cages.
Zheng Liu also saw him, raised his chin, and said, "Liu Xun is looking for his own death, your Liu family don't want to drag me to death, it's all my stuff here, I didn't take advantage of you."
"What are you talking about?" Liu Jing said angrily, "The saints have not decided, how can you say ......?"
"I don't listen! I won't listen!" Zheng Liu said loudly, she didn't mean to play with Liu Jing, and directly threw the hole card, "If you want to stop me, I'll go and find Mrs."
I will tell Madame, let the prince see Liu Huan Actually, you nodded, you know everything.
You still blame Liu Xun for taking Liu Huan to the yamen of the Ministry of Rites to startle the snake."
Liu Jing's face turned black.
glaring at Zheng Liu, he finally gave in.
No matter how much you argue with Zheng Liu, it doesn't make any sense.
Zheng Liu left, and before leaving, he said that in a few days, people would continue to move things according to the dowry book.
Liu Jing didn't let the Tao steward wait, walked back to the study, and sat down on the chair.
The thunder started again, and another heavy rain was about to fall.
He knew that time was running out for him.
Perhaps, it is tomorrow morning.
