Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 154 Clues
evening.

Taking advantage of the darkness, the three of them quietly went out of the door and rushed towards Jubaozhai.

The three of them flew up to the roof, swiftly shuttled across the roof, and arrived at the roof of Jubao Zhai in a short while.

Dodging the patrolling servants, the three of them sneaked into the courtyard, and Zhang Chen led the two of them into the lobby according to the memories of the day.

Looking at the patrolling guards in the lobby, Zhang Chen said in a low voice, "Did you see the booth in the middle? That's where the Lanting Collection is placed."

The two looked up after hearing the words, and nodded after confirming the location.

While speaking, Zhang Chen glanced at the people in the lobby, and found that Wang Huaigu and the butler beside him were not here.

At this time, Bai Zhantang, who was observing the surroundings just now, showed his professional quality, pointed to the small room behind the lobby and whispered: "As the owner of the antique shop, he is very likely to hold things behind, this is one of the hobbies of their collectors." one"

Speaking of this, Bai Zhantang cut it in disdain, the Nine Dragon Cup he stole back then was because of this oolong.

If it wasn't for the general playing with it at night, he accidentally broke it, and then threw the pot on himself, how could he, Bai Zhantang, have such a great reputation.

Seeing his expression, Zhang Chen covered his mouth and laughed. He also knew about Bai Zhantang's past, and Bai Zhantang complained bitterly about the general in the inn.

Among the three, only Yang Yuxuan didn't know why, tilting his head and watching the interaction between the two in doubt.

After arguing for a while, Zhang Chen's expression became serious, and he said to the two, mainly Yang Yuxuan: "This copybook of the Lanting Collection used to be the property of Chen Muchan and his wife, but it was a whole volume, and now half of it suddenly appeared. , it is very likely that the same boat will throw out the bait, so let's investigate one or two."

Yang Yuxuan nodded solemnly, expressing that he clearly understands this mission, Bai Zhantang looks relaxed, this kind of small job of investigation is not worth mentioning to the ancestor of the thief.

At this time, Zhang Chen suddenly made a gesture to make the two of them hide. It turned out that there were noisy shouts coming from outside the lobby, and it seemed that someone was approaching the lobby.

The three of them hid their figures, and saw the guards on patrol, saluting the middle-aged man who entered the lobby.

Only then did Zhang Chen see who was coming, and explained to the two in a low voice: "He is Wang Huaigu's housekeeper, it seems that the two of them really have something to do."

While the three of them were talking, Butler David walked towards the interior of the lobby. Seeing this, Zhang Chen gave Bai Zhantang a thumbs up.

The three of them quietly exited the lobby, took advantage of the fact that no one was around, climbed onto the roof, lifted a tile from the inner hall room, and listened carefully to the conversation in the room.

Inside the house, Wang Huaigu and the butler were discussing the exhibition.

The housekeeper was worried, and said to Wang Huaigu:
"Master, the exhibition we held this time is wonderful, but will it be a little dangerous?"

Wang Huaigu, who was copying the copybook at the table, put down his brush and said triumphantly: "As the saying goes, treasures are given to those who are destined to get them. He threw them to us, and we didn't snatch them."

"We just need to run this exhibition for him according to their requirements. I don't think the man in black has much taste. Master, didn't you finish what I ordered you?"

The housekeeper nodded and said that in broad daylight, it will be done according to Wang Huaigu's request.

Wang Huaigu laughed heartily when he heard the words, and said more and more proudly: "Look at what the master said before, they won't keep watching our movements, if they don't take this opportunity to give him a change How can I get the calligraphy of the book sage?"

The two people on the roof looked at each other in blank dismay. The two of them did not expect that there was such a secret in it. Wang Huaigu was not the one who released the bait but someone else.

Zhang Chen was indifferent to this, because he knew the inside story, and had already seen the whole process of the housekeeper's subcontracting during the day.

Just when the three of them thought it was over, Wang Huaigu suddenly said: "Is that old guy completely settled? A pariah wants so much money from the master?"

The housekeeper echoed Wang Huaigu and said, "Don't worry, master, we are very familiar with this matter. I have already let that old guy meet Hades, and I promise that no one will know his existence without anyone noticing it."

Wang Huaigu nodded in satisfaction, looked at the fake copybook on the table and said, "Has the real copybook been placed properly? It's not convenient for me to put away the copybook these days, so you have to show it to me carefully."

The housekeeper quickly replied flatteringly: "You don't have to worry about my work, it's absolutely safe to put it in the secret room of the warehouse"

Only then was Wang Huaigu satisfied, and went to the table again, looked at the fake copybook and stroked it lightly, as if touching some rare treasure.

After a while, Wang Huaigu said worriedly: "Whether it's the main building of Jubaozhai or our residence in the past few days, send me more people to patrol carefully."

Hearing the words, the housekeeper took a step forward, supported Wang Huaigu and said confidently: "The person who dared to destroy our Jubaozhai business has not yet been born. Who doesn't know that behind our master is someone from Dongchang?"

After he finished speaking, he changed the subject and continued: "It's just that the man in black holding the copybook is not an ordinary person. We still have to be careful."

Seeing the butler reminding this matter again, Wang Huaigu stroked his beard, thought for a while and ordered: "What the butler said is very true, a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall, and our filial piety to Dongchang is not in vain, so you Tomorrow morning, I will go to Eunuch Cao and ask Eunuch Cao to send some people to our Jubaozhai."

"Humph, hum, I want to see who else dares to fight against Dongchang in this capital, just because of his little man in black, he dares to threaten me, Master"

After finishing speaking, Wang Huaigu in the room burst into laughter, and the housekeeper laughed along with him.

At this time, Zhang Chen was stunned. He didn't think that there were other people's affairs here, but he remembered the characters in the previous plot. Although it was roughly consistent with the original plot, some details had already changed a lot.

Thinking of this, he once again warned himself secretly, not to rely on his own understanding of the plot in everything, otherwise the gutter will capsize one day.

The two in the room stopped talking, and the three quietly left Jubaozhai. When passing by the warehouse, Zhang Chen asked the two to keep watch, and he went in quietly, and took out the real copybook.

This is also thanks to Zhu Yipin. When the three of them returned to the hospital during the day and informed Zhu Yipin of the situation, Zhang Chen casually mentioned a fake copybook. pick.

At this time, Zhang Chen and the others knew that these copybooks were copies of Chen Muchan's previous works, and Zhu Yipin was not willing to throw them away, but now they came in handy.

In the middle of the night, on the empty street, the three of them walked slowly towards the hospital.

Bai Zhantang walked up to Yang Yuxuan, and asked gossipingly, "The Eunuch Cao mentioned by Wang Huaigu just now could be your immediate boss, Cao Shaoqin from Dongchang, right?"

Yang Yuxuan's face darkened, but he did not refute what Bai Zhantang said, because what he said was the truth, and this Eunuch Cao was his boss.

　Thanks for the support!
