The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 182 Clues
The case hasn't been solved yet, but he complained about His Majesty Li Er first. If His Majesty Li Er sent a tripod or something, the thieves wouldn't miss it.

"Young Master, look at this case." Wu Junyan's face was ashamed. If the news of the theft of the town's treasure, the sheep fat jade unicorn paperweight, which was bestowed by the imperial court, would not only lose his place for sacrificial wine, but Lushan Academy His reputation will also be ruined.

"Don't say anything about the theft of the jade unicorn, just pretend it never happened. I have my own idea." Xuan Shijing said.

Hearing this, Wu Junyan cupped his hands as if he had received an amnesty, and said, "Then I would like to thank the young master here."

"Master Jijiu, you don't need to be so polite. Shijing enters Lushan Academy, and I will call you sir in the future." Xuan Shijing bowed his hands in return.

"That's the case, if the young master has any orders in the future, he will directly send someone to inform the subordinate officials." Wu Junyan said, Xuan Shijing has such a status and family background, and he wants to help him solve the theft of the jade unicorn and the academy's tuition fees. Naturally, he wanted to flatter her, Xuan Shijing was still young at this time, with such a status at such an age, his future prospects were limitless.

"Master Jijiu said so, the students are not polite." Xuan Shijing smiled and said: "Because of the case, I hope that Master Jijiu will allow students to freely enter and leave the warehouse and all parts of the academy."

Hearing Xuan Shijing's request, Wu Junyan thought about it for a while, and it was reasonable. After all, he wanted to solve the case, so he nodded and agreed: "This is not a problem, young master, but I have to arrange a room for your guard. Room?"

Lushan Academy is different from Guozijian who can choose to go home or live there at will. Although the academy is not far from Chang'an City, it is still more than ten miles away, not to mention that the students of the academy are not only from Chang'an.All the students of Lushan Academy live in the academy. There is a special dormitory area in the academy. Of course, Xuan Shijing also wants to live here. Yes, it is a small residence. Xuan Shijing’s home is in Chang’an If you don't want to live in the academy, you can naturally go back to the Marquis Mansion. What's more, the matter in Xuan Shijing's hands is not just the theft of Lushan Academy.

"If that's the case, Lord Jijiu will be troublesome." Xuan Shijing cupped his hands and said.

The room that Wu Junyan arranged for Xuan Shijing and Gao Jun was naturally not in the student’s dormitory area, but the guest room used by the academy to receive distinguished guests. The small layout of one bedroom and one living room is very elegant. The school is just across the road.

The rooms of Xuan Shijing and Gao Jun are next to each other, which is also convenient for Xuan Shijing to find Gao Jun at any time. After sending Wu Junyan and the little officials around him away, Xuan Shijing came to Gao Jun's room.

"You saw it in the warehouse just now, what do you think?" Xuan Shijing asked while sitting on a chair.

"It is certain that it was done by one person, and there must be a thief among them." Gao Jun replied: "Now there are two conjectures, one is that all the people who stole are in Lushan Academy, and the other is that people in Lushan Academy collaborated with outsiders. , to steal."

Xuan Shijing nodded, the two situations mentioned by Gao Jun indeed exist.

"Little Lord, when you opened the window, did you notice that the flower bed behind has been abandoned for a long time, but there are traces of new soil turning over." Gao Jun said.

"En?!" Xuan Shijing was stunned: "Go on."

"According to my subordinates, if the flower beds in the academy have been abandoned for a long time, they should have been overgrown with weeds. Although there are weeds in the flower beds, the grass color is withered and yellow. Although it is late autumn, the color of the grass is not right. It didn't seem to be withered, but dead, and the subordinates took a closer look and found that there were traces of new soil turning under the turf."

"That is to say, it can be speculated that the thief transported the things out of the warehouse, and did not directly send them out of the academy or hide them elsewhere, but buried them under the flower bed nearby, and took them out later when the wind passed." Xuan Shi Jing said: "It has been nearly 20 days since the incident, and the thief wanted to take the things out."

"Young Lord, it is the last time when the autumn grass and trees are flourishing. The thief transplanted the grass from other places into the flower bed, probably thinking that this or that grass can survive. If it survives, it can also cover up the traces in the flower bed. It is." Gao Jun said.

It’s no wonder that Jingzhao Yin’s mansion searched earth-shakingly and made such a big commotion in Chang’an City, but they didn’t find this batch of money. It turned out to be right under their noses. It really fulfilled the sentence that the most dangerous place is the safest place. The place.

"Gao Jun, Chairman Ancheng called a few people over. Tomorrow we will go to the flower bed behind the warehouse to find out. Today we went to the warehouse with Wu Junyan. The thief must not be able to act in these two days." Xuan Shijing ordered.

"Yes, Young Master." Gao Jun replied.

Xuan Shijing was very happy, really lucky, as soon as he came, he found some clues, and he caught up with the thief who wanted to open the stolen goods. If the things were really hidden under the flower bed, so many Money, definitely cannot be transported once, this undoubtedly gave Xuan Shijing time to breathe.

Now there is another point in front of Xuan Shijing's eyes, the person who stole must be someone from the academy, but most of the people in the academy are students, scholars, what motive or purpose is there for stealing this money?It's nothing more than stealing money, even the most valuable jade unicorn paperweight in the warehouse, and it was the second theft, which is a bit too much.

In fact, Xuan Shijing didn't have any tricks at all to solve the case, he just relied on having someone under his command, so he was lucky. According to this progress, it is estimated that Dai Zhou will be able to hand over the job soon.

In the morning, Xuan Shijing checked the stolen warehouse of Lushan Academy, and in the afternoon, he was arranged to go to class. There are more than a hundred students in Lushan Academy, divided into five schools, and there are also seniors who have been studying here for two or three years. There are also freshmen like Xuan Shijing who have just come to the academy, and Xuan Shijing is arranged among this group of new students.

The students of the college are just like the students in the university back then, they are all pure and beautiful ages, this is not the Imperial College, and there are no second-generation officials who fight their fathers and grandpas all day long, and the students get along very well.

But this rapprochement only lasted for one day. On the second day, the master of the academy led a person to the school with a smile on his face, and told everyone that a new student came today.

The new student is not very old, not very tall, and looks thinner than Xuan Shijing, but the nobility exuding from his body can be noticed at a glance in the crowd. His black hair was tied into a bundle and fixed on top of his head with a white jade hairpin. He was dressed in a white robe and covered with black gauze. Anyone who saw him would admire him. He was such a handsome young man.

After Xuan Shijing saw the man's face clearly, the surprise in his heart was completely expressed on his face, and he stared at the man in disbelief.

Princess Jinyang!
