Your Majesty, the Emperor is playing your cards again!

Chapter 292 Still needs verification

The emperor's mother is the late empress of the late emperor, and she has a high status. The person who carved this white jade beauty sculpture must not be a commoner, but must be a high-ranking official who has met the late empress.

Also, the carved white jade is completely translucent and is extremely valuable at first sight. It cannot be owned by ordinary people.

Xia Baozheng's mind turned, and he suddenly remembered that when he was staying at Yanshan Palace, a woman pretended to be the maid of a good concubine to hook up with the guards of Prince Nan'an, and let the guards steal Prince Nan'an's treasure.

She remembered that the guard said that he stole a white jade beauty sculpture next to King Nan'an.

But the white jade beauty sculpture was missing from King Nan'an, and he looked like he was going to war.

If the white jade beauty sculpture stolen by the guards was the one in front of him, it would explain why King Nan'an was so anxious and went to war.

Carving the image of the former empress into a sculpture and keeping it next to you is a serious crime of beheading that must not be seen by others, and the Nan'an Palace also has the ability to possess such precious white jade.

The more Xia Baozheng thought about it, the more it seemed possible. Looking at the emperor's clouded eyes, he said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, when King Nan'an was in the Yanshan Palace, didn't he go to war because a white jade beauty sculpture was missing? Could it be? This one?"

Jun Feiliang thought of this when he saw the white jade sculpture, and it was precisely because he thought of this that he became even more angry.

Suppressing the hoarseness that burned his throat with anger, he said in a low voice, "It still needs to be verified."

Xia Baozheng nodded.

Qingfeng, who had gone out to investigate, hadn't come back yet, but Huo Liao came back first.

Huo Liao changed his usual laziness and looked at the emperor and said, "This white jade beauty sculpture was sold here by a masked man. He was in a hurry to sell it and the bid was low. Dameng Casino took it without hesitation."

Dameng Casino only accepts treasures based on whether the treasures are worth it, not on where to buy them, so many wealthy families who are eager to sell them will secretly bring the treasures here to sell them.

It doesn't matter if you have less money, the main thing is safety, because here we don't check the seller, only the products.

Jun Feiliang asked with a stern face, "Can you find the masked man?" Huo Liao looked over with his narrow phoenix eyes, "No, we only look at treasures here, without asking where they came from. So many masked people come here to sell treasures every day. , Unless the Bodhisattva appears, he will not be found at all.”

Jun Feiliang remained calm and silent.

Xia Baozheng thought for a while and asked, "When did the masked man come here to sell the treasure?"

Huo Liao said directly, "I just asked specifically about the treasure I received five days ago."

Xia Baozheng calculated and said, "The time is right."

Five days ago, Prince Nan'an lost his treasure.

Huo Liao raised his eyes and looked at Xia Baozheng, with a gentle voice, "When the time is right, let me tell my brother carefully."

Xia Baozheng glanced at him and said, "Curiosity kills the cat. The more you know, the faster you will die."

Huo Liao: "..."

Since it was a treasure that a masked man came here to sell, it would not be found out even if it took a while. Jun Feiliang left Dameng Casino with Xia Baozheng and prepared to return to the palace.

Huo Liao chased after him and insisted on following him back to the palace. He was still counting on the emperor to help him detoxify.

Jun Feiliang followed him without comment, and when he returned to the palace, he directly asked Qingfeng to place him in the guard house.

As long as the poison in his body can be detoxified, he is willing to be his grandson. It doesn't matter if he lives as a guard.

Huo Liao settled down happily.

The emperor had important matters to attend to, so he went to the Imperial Study Room, while Xia Baozheng returned to Jinxiu Pavilion.
