Chapter 1459 The Secret of the Chamber of Secrets 25.0
"I have some good things here, you two can help to see if it is... Hey, what are you doing here? Are you setting up a stall?"

Xue Ruitian originally dragged a big box over and wanted Shen Cha and Jin Miaomiao to help identify it, but before he could say anything, he saw the things spread all over the place and was stunned.

"What's going on here? Where did you get so many things?" Xue Ruitian looked at the things on the ground, and couldn't help being speechless, "What are these?"

"What's going on? It's what you saw, Lord Hou, what else could it be?" Jin Miaomiao sat cross-legged on the white cloth laid out, flipping through the gadgets hidden in those clothes one by one, Grinning his teeth at Xue Ruitian, "These are rare things, Lord Hou!"

"Well, why do I feel that the smell here is a bit sour?" Xue Ruitian raised his eyebrows, "Didn't I tell you that you can take whatever you like?" He rolled his eyes, "I don't need these, I guess in the future No one can use it.”

"If you dare to take anything else, you really don't dare to take these. If you take it, it would be treasonous." Jin Miaomiao snorted, "But I have to say, the wealth of the Hou's family is beyond my imagination. In this house, you can find many interesting and good things.”

"You can only find it here, and I'm afraid you won't be able to see it at all in other places."

"That's true." Jin Miaomiao picked up the pair of earrings that didn't look very eye-catching, and blew a sigh of relief, "Red beans are born in the southern country, how many branches will you send in spring?" She chuckled, "Who is this?" For the empress? Is it so romantic?"

"How can you be sure it's my aunt's? Maybe it's someone else's!"

"Master Hou, look at the boxes that have been opened. They are all the relics of the empress. After the empress passed away, the late emperor returned them to the Xue family." Jin Miaomiao raised her chin towards the boxes, "These things But they were all dug out from these boxes, isn't it the empress's?"

"Let me take a look." Xue Ruitian looked at the opened boxes with his hands behind his back, at the boxes containing clothes, and then at the boxes containing tea utensils, tableware, and incense, "Good guy, this is really good." Good stuff! Haolin, Haolin, come quickly, come and see!"

Hearing Xue Ruitian's yelling, Shen Haolin walked over slowly holding a volume of slips, and when he saw the box that Xue Ruitian excitedly pointed out to him, he glanced at it lightly, without any major expression change, and sat down directly By Shen Cha's side.

"Why are you so calm? These are things from the palace. They are all good things, and you can't see them on weekdays! Ah, no, things in the palace are common, but things in the harem are not common." Xue Ruitian picked it up carefully. An incense burner, I opened the lid and smelled it. Although it has not been used for many years, there is still a faint fragrance. "This incense burner is really well made, but it should only burn a single kind of incense." He closed it Feeling it with his eyes, "Hmm... citrus, chayote, and..." He shook his head lightly, and handed the incense burner in his hand to Jin Miaomiao, "I don't have much research on incense, you can smell it."

Jin Miaomiao took it over, smelled it, raised her eyebrows slightly, and showed a sneer.

"Can't Master Hou smell such a strong musk?" She handed the incense burner to Xue Ruitian, took another one out of the box, took it out and smelled it, then turned to Shen Cha, "Have we found the finished incense?" ?”

"No." Shen Cha blinked. She yawned after listening to the words of the two people just now, "Isn't it normal for this to be mixed with musk? It may not be the empress dowager's fault, maybe it's the empress herself."

"Why?" Jin Miaomiao looked puzzled, "Don't you want to have your own child?"

"She herself is the victim of the struggle between the two sides. The Xue family did not expect her to have a prince, and it is even more impossible for the empress dowager to let the empress give birth to an heir for the Song family. Since everyone's purpose is the same, in order to avoid more To hurt the body, using incense is still a relatively mild method." Shen Cha sighed softly, "Besides, the empress knows that she will die soon, so..." She shrugged her shoulders, "Don't make too much fuss."

"Although a little indifferent, this is indeed the case." Xue Ruitian nodded, looking at Shen Haolin who still had no reaction to these, "Why are you not curious at all, Haolin!"

"What are you curious about? There are a lot of these things at home." Shen Haolin glanced at him, "When my mother got married back then, the dowry could fill the entire Marquis Wuding Mansion."

"Pfft!" Jin Miaomiao laughed until her stomach ached, and patted Xue Ruitian's shoulder vigorously, "Master Hou, are you stupid!"

Xue Ruitian snorted coldly, rolled his eyes, and looked aggrieved.

Shen Haolin smiled, stretched out his hand to touch Shen Cha's hand next to him, and felt that the temperature was okay, so he felt relieved.

"Is it cold?"

"It's okay." Shen Cha smiled, and leaned closer to Shen Haolin, "What did you find?"

"Not yet." Shen Haolin shook his head lightly, "I just started to look at things like that over there..." He pointed to the boxes containing clothes and various utensils, "Basically none."

"I also have the flowers on the slips, but not as many as my brother." Shen Cha glanced at the slips in Shen Haolin's hand, then raised his chin towards the pile of slips on the ground, "It's good to have half of my brother's flowers, but I don't care about these flowers." I just flipped through everything, and I understand a little bit." She looked at Shen Haolin, "Basically, it is the correspondence between the Xue family's empress, the empress dowager, and her own family members, and there are also correspondence between the Xue family and the empress dowager. Confidential letters between the Queen Mother, and earlier, some correspondence before and after the Xue family withdrew from the Qinglian Sect."

"What exactly is the situation?"

"I haven't watched it yet. I plan to move out and watch it again. Brother, don't watch it either. The light inside is not enough, it's not good for your eyes."

"Okay!" Shen Haolin nodded, looking at the box in Shen Cha's arms, "What is it?"

"I don't know, I haven't had time to look at it yet, I guess it's related to those..." Shen Cha looked at the white cloth on the floor and the little things on it, "It's about the same, the miscellaneous things here are too There are too many, just sorting out these is already a headache, and it will take a lot of time."

She sighed softly, leaned her head on Shen Haolin's shoulder, and chuckled lightly.

"What's wrong? What are you laughing at?"

"Uncle is a very careful person." Shen Cha smiled lightly, "I sorted out all the things of your mother."

"Why do you say that? Maybe Uncle Xue or Aunt Xue sorted it out?"

"No." Shen Cha shook his head lightly, "These things should have never been opened after they arrived at Xue's house, and they were brought to the border from Xijing City intact."

"I agree with Xiaocha." Jin Miaomiao picked up a thin necklace from the white cloth, "Otherwise, how could this be hidden in the interlayer of the clothes without being found?"
