Wu Zheng, who was sitting alone in the back hall of the mansion and thinking hard, suddenly thought of a question, - Sima Cen Ji, who had been the governor of Linshan Mansion for five years, had he only dug a secret passage connecting the back house and the tribute courtyard?

Thinking of this, Wu Zheng did not alarm anyone, but came to the middle of the mansion behind the back hall of the mansion alone, which was specially prepared for the mansion Yin and has been idle so far.

Although I have been here a few times before, I have never double-checked. If it weren't for the discovery of the secret passage exit under the pomegranate tree in front of the east window of the North House today, maybe Wu Zheng would never have suspected that there was a very high probability that there was another secret in it.

On the north side of the courtyard are four main rooms, which enter through the middle door, and are spacious halls, with a set of rooms in each of the east and west, and look at the furnishings of the large furniture inside, which should be two bedrooms.

The one on the west side has a separate portal. In this room, which looked like it should be Sima Cenji's study, Wu Zheng made an unexpected discovery, which confirmed his conjecture just now.

There are bookshelves more than one person high on the three walls of the east, west, and north, and only one bookcase is under the window on the left hand side of the door. Since Sima Cengji was sent to the Criminal Department in the capital, all his belongings, including the books here, have been sealed and stored. So only the bulky furniture is still in place.

When Wu Zheng moved the bookshelves on the east and west sides and found nothing, and then pushed open the bookshelves on the north wall, a small door appeared on the wall.

When I entered through the small door, I found that the back wall of the back house of this government had a mezzanine. The gap between the two layers of walls is large enough for two people to walk sideways. Walking down the corridor in the mezzanine, about five feet from the ground, there is a secret room that is no narrower than the study above.

Because when Sima Cen Ji searched his home after arresting him, he did not find this secret room. So the furnishings inside, as well as the items, are all intact.

There are several ancient calligraphy and paintings hanging on the surrounding walls, and in the middle is a low table, on which a set of purple sand tea sets is placed. And next to the low table on the ground each has a futon. Although it was deep underground, the chamber was not dim, and the light was shining through the south wall of the chamber. A small square window shot in.

Estimating the location, it can be basically concluded that the small window used for lighting and ventilation should be under the bookcase of the study above, the only south-facing window, and it is directly open on the wall of the study.

Why can't you find anything from the yard?

Suddenly remembering the dense bush of arrow bamboos outside the study window, Wu Zheng immediately figured out what was going on.

Standing in the secret room, almost everything can be seen at a glance, but with the experience in the study just now, Wu Zheng still casually lifted the ancient calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall one by one to take a look.

It doesn't matter. When Wu Zheng opened the calligraphy and painting on the east wall, he really found a narrow entrance again.

This can't help but remind Wu Zheng of the experience of rescuing Tie Ning in the underground underground dungeon of Liufu in Shuntian Mansion and in that secret room.

Without hesitation, Wu Zheng leaned sideways into it. Although the passage inside was far less spacious than in the mezzanine at the back of the study, the passage was not long, but within ten steps he was already standing in another unusually dimly lit secret room.

Extrapolating the direction, this secret room should be under the east side of the north hall hall and the west side of the east room. However, the small window of ventilation and lighting is placed above the north wall of the secret room, that is, outside the wall of the courtyard of the mansion behind the palace. Position close to the ground.

Wu Zheng knew that behind the mansion was the courtyard wall. Beyond the courtyard wall is a small forest. In this way, the lighting outlet here is in the narrow gap between the back wall of the house and the courtyard wall of the government, and the natural light will not be very good because of the obstruction of the grove outside the courtyard wall.

Standing at the entrance of the secret room, it was not until he got used to the light inside that Wu Zheng could see everything in the secret room clearly.

The secret room in front of you is significantly better than the outside. The one under the study should be larger. On the east and south walls are small beds, which are fully furnished and neatly stacked. Under the lighting of the north wall is a bookcase, on which pen, ink, paper and inkstone are readily available. On the east side of the bookcase is a candlestick with an unburned candle on it. Next to the candlestick is a stack of books. Everything is equally in order. There was not a hint of disorder.

Wu Zheng walked over and flipped through the stack of books casually, not wanting a piece of paper with handwriting to suddenly fall out of it.

When I picked it up, I saw that it was a note. You can't make out the handwriting until you see it. I saw that only a few dozen words were written:

Gengxin Ren Guiwei Gengtang's progress is slow, if it is delayed any longer, it will be difficult to escape punishment.

Looking at the note in his hand that had neither a desk nor a payment, Wu Zheng did not move his body for a long time.

Obviously, it should be an order from the so-called "Dark God Organization" to Sima Cen Ji, or Luo Jiutian, Wu Gan and others. It's just that why isn't there a single word?

"Gengxin Non Gui is only Geng Tang for slowing down, doesn't that mean that the 'Dark God Organization' has established nine halls of A, B, C, Ding, and Wu Xin?"

There is no doubt that Luo Jiutian and Wu Gan should have been hiding here at that time.

As for why this note was not taken away, it should have been casually sandwiched in the pages after reading it, so the two of them were negligent for a while when they fled in a hurry.

It's just that there is too little information revealed on it, and the unwilling Wu Zheng carefully rummaged through all the corners of the secret room, but he didn't find anything useful.

In a sad mood, he walked out of the secret room, returned to the courtyard, and searched the two wings of the east and west, and Wu Zheng, who also found nothing, just walked to the door of the back hall of the mansion across the wall, and saw Zhu Hongming, the long history who was walking towards him.

"Lord Wu. ”

"Lord Zhu. ”

"Eight hundred miles of urgent paperwork from the Criminal Department. ”

Wu Zheng took it casually and took the lead in entering the back hall, and Zhu Hongming also followed.

After opening it in front of Zhu Hongming, he looked at it from the beginning and handed it to Zhu Hongming.

"Feng Mansion Butler Bao Rui?"

Wu Zheng looked at Changshi with a surprised face, Zhu Hongming nodded and said:

"Sima Cen Ji has been operating in Linshan Mansion for so many years, and it is almost impossible for a big family in Linshan City like Fengfu not to be implicated. Now that Qian Luojin has spoken, I'm afraid it won't be just Bao Rui, the housekeeper of Fengfu. ”

was thinking about how to check Feng Mansion next, but he didn't want the text of the Criminal Department to give Wu Zheng a chance. Qin Jinwen came immediately, and Wu Zheng wanted to personally lead the team to Fengfu.

After all, he had never seen the owner of Fengfu, and he only guessed that the thin and tall person who was sent away last night might be Fengnian, but Wu Zheng still wanted to confirm it with his own eyes.

"Why should Lord Wu go in person, it's better to let the lower officials do it for you. ”

Wu Zheng looked at Zhu Hongming, who had a sincere face, nodded and said:

"Then bother Lord Lao Zhu to go with this mansion and go to Feng Mansion to have a look. ”
