Raid

Chapter 183 Stone Cave
Rong Zhi told Li Shengxi what Zhan Qirui and his wife discovered.

Li Shengxi was a little surprised, not surprised by what Zhan Qirui and his wife discovered, but surprised that Rong Zhi would tell her about it.

What Zhan Qirui and his wife discovered was indeed worth Rong Zhi's trip to Xiaqiu.But this matter sounds like it has nothing to do with the Zhou family's delivery of saltpeter.

On the contrary, it has something to do with the arms smuggling case she investigated.

Iron ore has always been used as a weapon material, and the convoy deliberately detoured it. It's hard not to think about it.If the ore and iron donated by the prefectures and prefectures in the north of the Yangtze River come to the lower hills before going to the capital, then the Zhou family will definitely be able to get a lot of iron from them... No, if you want to forge weapons privately, you will be greedy for the little things from the imperial court Absolutely not enough.

The Zhou family must have their own private mine in the Jiangbei state capital, but they quickly sent it to Xiaqiu under the cover of a convoy that escorts tax silver and mineral materials every year.

This matter is easy to guess, but why did Rong Zhi tell her this matter?Now the relationship between them will not be broken, and they both know that the other party has their own ghosts, so even if he just perfunctory her, she will not pursue it too much.

And why did Rong Zhi tell her this, other than to test her?

Li Shengxi lowered his eyes and smiled lightly.

Rong Zhi wanted to go to the study, but was stopped by Li Shengxi.She brought Rong Zhi to the back garden.

In fact, as soon as the map of the Hong Mansion came to her, she could see the clues. The seemingly ordinary mansion revealed a strange feeling everywhere.At first glance, there was nothing wrong with the layout of the mansion, but when the big map was presented to him, Li Shengxi felt something was wrong.

What's more, with Hong Huai's shrewdness and the secret room discovered in Hu Wenruo's mansion back then.The secret room in Hong's mansion must be placed in an unexpected place. As for this place, the first place that bears the brunt is the back garden that gives Li Sheng the strongest sense of weirdness.

Rong Zhi was a little surprised, but he didn't question Li Shengxi's decision.Ning Rushuang would never shoot aimlessly, let alone talk nonsense. Since she brought him here, there must be her reasons.

Li Shengxi took Rong Zhi to shuttle into the rockery and stone forest, Rong Zhi looked at Li Shengxi's figure fumbling up and down, his gaze sank, who is she?
The name Ning Rushuang must not be her real name, how could a person with so many skins let others see her most real skin so easily.

And Ning Rujin will not be her sister, and as for this face, it is definitely not real.

Who is she?
The reason why he told about Zhan Qirui just now, apart from some reasons that he couldn't explain himself, is that he can be sure of one thing, he wanted to use this incident to test Ning Rushuang.

And indeed, as he thought, Ning Rushuang's coming to the Hong Mansion probably has something to do with what he just said.

Tax silver and mineral materials come to Xiaqiu, what can they do for them?

Silver... iron... Rong Zhi froze, then couldn't help but grit his teeth, the Zhou family is really bold, they dare to get dirty with anything, and they are not afraid of getting their shoes wet.

While he was thinking, Li Shengxi had already touched the mechanism. She took out a dagger, pried the protruding stones on the stone wall, and made another turn. Immediately afterwards, a doorway appeared at the end of the stone wall.

Li Shengxi and Rong Zhi looked at each other, Rong Zhi understood, quickly picked up a branch and threw it into the cave, the next moment, several rows of arrows shot out from both arms of the cave.

Fortunately, it was a good defense. If not, I am afraid that I have become a hedgehog at this moment.

"This institution..."

Li Shengxi smiled lightly, "I still have some skills."

After she finished speaking, she turned the dagger in her hand, the arrow stopped, and Rong Zhi threw another branch into it, but there was no movement.

Li Shengxi walked in, and Rong Zhi hurriedly followed.

Not long after the two entered, the door of the cave was closed, and the cave was plunged into darkness.

Rong Zhi lit up the book, and rows of steps appeared in front of his eyes, "Miss Ning also understands formations, and she learns them so delicately? When you are practicing martial arts, do you also learn these?"

"When Rong Lang was studying, apart from the books of sages and sages, he didn't see wasted martial arts." Li Shengxi retorted.

"How can Rong be compared with the lady." Rong Zhi smiled lightly, and continued: "I'm just curious, who did Mrs. Ning learn from, and she was able to teach her to be so omnipotent."

"Don't dare to be." Li Shengxi didn't accept his routine, but she smiled slightly when she thought of something: "But the tutor is indeed a rare hero in this world, and in my heart, it is also a peak that no one can surpass."

My brother is naturally unmatched.

But apart from her elder brother, she has many teachers, some have different opinions, political enemies, and opponents who have conflicting interests... In short, those who harbored ill will toward her but never killed her are all her teachers, and they all teach taught her many things.

"Really? I don't know who's name, which high-ranking scholar is it? If Rong has a chance, he would also like to meet him." Rong Zhi was a little curious.

Li Sheng glanced at him and didn't say anything, but Rong Zhiming read a few words from that cold face - you don't deserve to know.

The people in front of me have always been polite, and they never do or say rude things, but even if they don't do or say, they can show it, and this is how it is now.

Rong Zhi was taken aback for a moment, he was not very angry, but he was very curious.Who made Ning Rushuang care so much and made her treat him so honestly.

For a rare hero in the world to receive such a title, it means that this person will definitely not be a mediocre person.

But it is also true, how can mediocre people teach such a heroine as Ning Rushuang.

Speaking of this, the two of them were speechless all the way. Hong Huai's mechanism is really mysterious, and if he is not careful, a thousand arrows can pierce his heart, but Li Shengxi is exceptionally flexible. After going through many corridors, he entered the secret room at the end of the stone gate.

"Where is this?" Li Shengxi asked suddenly.

"After entering the stone cave, we circled many times. This location, this distance, should be the northwest corner of the back garden." Rong Zhi tapped on the top of the stone wall lightly, and put his head on it again, "Yes, it is the northwest corner. Jiao, this place is the inner lake of Hong Mansion."

"Neihu, the important things are arranged under the lake, and I don't know what Hong Huai is thinking." Li Shengxi smiled lightly, and quickly opened the last stone door.

As soon as you walk in, you will see rows of book shelves, which looks like a small study.

"It's a pity I didn't bring Mrs. Meng here." Rong Zhi looked at the countless account books on the shelf, and suddenly felt a headache.

"It's not necessary to read every book. If Hong Huai wants to clear the books, he must sort them into categories." Li Shengxi's dark color is unclear, so many things can be seen how long he has been in business.

The two soon got busy.
