Chapter 271: Snatching People's Treasures

In the next few days, the General's Mansion was lively again for a while.

"Oh, that kid is so peaceful, and he always runs to Bihe Courtyard, can't he be playing some bad idea?" Speaking of Xia Yichuan, the old lady was full of dislike.

Mama Lei, who was waiting on the side, said with a smile, "The fifth young master is much more sensible when he comes back from the army this time, and he helps the second young master take care of a lot of things every morning and dusk. ”

The old lady's face was still not very good-looking, she couldn't help but remember that when the Wen family was still pregnant with Xia Yichuan, she followed the general back from outside the province, and met a bandit on the way.

Because it was a premature baby, the fifth young master almost died several times, until a senior monk made a prayer for him, saying that he must use his father's words to bless, so she made this master and let the fifth young master use the word "Yi".

may be the manifestation of the Buddha, and after taking the name, Xia Yichuan's body is getting better day by day, but his temperament is becoming more and more uneasy.

"Old lady Qiqi, the abbot master of Leiruo Temple has arrived. ”

The old lady's face immediately froze, and then she stood up and let Mama Lei help her, "Quick, don't let the master wait for a long time!"

The people in Beijing all know that the lord of Yongle County has found a rare jade Guanyin for Mrs. Xia, and specially invited the abbot of Lei Ruo Temple to come to the house to hold a consecration ceremony for this Guanyin statue, and many people who are sincere to the Buddha are invited to come, and the scene is surprisingly grand.

Xia Qianwei looked at the lively scene in front of her, always with a faint smile on her face.

Xia Yichuan in the corner looked at the beautiful girl who was surrounded by the left and right, and a smug light crossed his eyes.

A melodious and ethereal, soul-washing Sanskrit sound murmured like a clear spring, and everyone showed a pious expression, and the original noise was suddenly immersed in solemnity.

As the abbot recited the sacred scriptures, everyone knelt down and bowed in the direction of the brocade box on the central altar, not wanting to be at this moment, an abrupt cry came.

"Give me back the heirloom, and return my husband's lifeβ€”"

What the?

I saw that at the end of the corridor, several women in mourning clothes rushed in crying and screaming, and were immediately stopped by the guards around them.

There was a sudden whisper all around, and everyone looked at each other, and no one knew what was happening.

The old lady's face beside the altar couldn't help but change, and she heard the women shouting miserably, "The lord of Yongle County used his power to bully people, not to mention taking away my family treasure, and killing people to exterminate my descendants!"

Everyone finally understood, and immediately looked in the direction of Xia Qianwei in disbelief, what? This Guanyin statue was actually taken by the county lord of Yongle by despicable means?

"Nonsense, who let these shrews in? Come, kick them out!"

The old lady secretly said something bad in her heart, but she didn't want Xia Qianwei to reach out and stop her, "Grandmother is angry, Qianwei is sitting upright, you might as well listen to their grievances, so as not to fall into the mouth." ”

The eyes of suspicion and anger came, and the old lady finally suppressed this anger.

The women were brought up and knelt miserably before the abbot, as if to tell the heavens what had happened to them.

At this time, Xia Qianwei had already slowly stood up, and the women on the ground couldn't help but be stunned, as if they didn't expect that the county lord of Yongle who had ruined their family was such a beautiful girl, and they forgot their words for a while.

"Qianwei doesn't know a few ladies, why do you want to slander like this?" Xia Qianwei's face was calm, and the woman headed by her quickly came back to her senses, she wiped the tears on her face and replied angrily, "Those robbers kept saying that they were ordered by the county lord of Yongle to ask us to sacrifice the heirloom Guanyin statue, and my husband Junning would rather die than obey, and you will take his life!"

"Yes, this Jade Guanyin is the ancestral treasure of my Zhang family, how can there be a reason to give it to others? My eldest brother is just arguing on the basis of reason, are you trying to force the people to rebel?!"

One accusation after another came to the head, and every detail was outrageous!

The discussion and anger in the crowd came and went, and for a while, everyone in the Xia family was put on the fire, and the gossip burned their faces to the extreme.

"How can this be reasonable, dare to blatantly hold a consecration ceremony to seize people's treasures!"

"That is, are you not afraid of God's wrath?"

The scene was out of control for a while, and Xia Yichuan in the corner only felt extremely relieved, it was in vain that he had been building momentum in Beijing in the past few days, spreading the news that the General's Mansion was going to hold a festival, and inviting so many people who believed in Buddhism in the name of the county lord of Yongle, just to make her ruined!

made such a big move, no matter how much grandmother favored Xia Qianwei, this matter would definitely be transmitted to the palace, the queen mother is also a person who worships the Buddha, how can she let a vicious woman who blasphemes the Buddha and kills people continue to wear the hat of the county lord?

Xia Qianwei's good days are over! In this way, his mother and fourth sister don't have to suffer such grievances anymore, and they finally have a bad breath for them!

Xia Yichuan only felt that his forbearance in the past few days had finally paid off, but when he looked at Xia Qianwei again, he found that the other party's face was actually with a light smile.

Why, now that she thinks that there is anyone else who can suppress this face?

"May I ask Madam, what do the heirlooms of your mansion look like?"

No one thought that Xia Qianwei actually wanted to hide it, she looked up at the abbot, and everyone saw this respected monk of Leiruo Temple coming with a brocade box in his hand.

"Jade Guanyin is green all over, it is carved with the rare old Hetian jade in the world, it has a history of hundreds of years, and the jade statue is also engraved with the family pattern of our Zhang family, which is a lotus pattern. ”

The woman described it in such detail that she didn't look like she was lying.

However, when the abbot opened the brocade box and took out the white jade Guanyin statue inside, the smile on Xia Yichuan's face in the corner froze for a moment.

What, what's going on? That's not the Hetian jade statue I gave to Xia Qianwei!

"Madame, take a good look, is this your family heirloom?"

Several women on the ground were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other suspiciously, "This, this is not our ......"

There was an atmosphere of embarrassment around them, how could they make such a ferocious fuss, but it turned out to be just an oolong? Then they kept saying that the story of the Lord of Yongle County ordering someone to rob their family heirlooms was all fake?

"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!" But I didn't want to At this time, an anxious voice came from outside, and several women on the ground looked back in a daze, only to see a white-haired old woman coming slowly under the support of Aunt Su, and everyone immediately got out of the way.

"Mother, why are you here?!" The woman at the head hurriedly stepped forward, and the old woman took her hand excitedly, "Someone from the official mansion came to say that they had caught the group of bandits, they had confessed, and this matter had nothing to do with the county lord of Yongle!"

What the?

Xia Yihai couldn't believe his ears and grabbed it? No, it can't be, why didn't Wei Ergongzi tell him?
