"This subordinate inspected early this morning and found that the grain and rice escorted back last night suddenly lost [-] tan..." Ji Lu's deep voice continued to come from outside the tent, Nangong Longze frowned at the moment, and walked towards the tent. go outside.

Huangfu Yuqing, who was lying on the bed, couldn't help being startled, [-] tans of rice grain was not a small amount, and it was lost in just one night, which sounded too weird, and she couldn't wait to pick it up Pick up the clothes and start putting on.

When Huangfu Yuqing arrived at the place where the grain and rice were placed, it was the tent that was hurriedly set up last night, and it was built with a huge waterproof and moisture-proof tarpaulin. At this moment, apart from Nangong Longze, Huangfu Lingfeng and Cao Mu were also here. , Huangfu Lingfeng was at a loss, while Master Cao at the side secretly glanced in the direction of Nangong Longze from time to time, secretly observing the expression changes on the man's face.

"My lord, what's going on here?" Huangfu Yuqing stepped forward, the man's face seemed surprisingly calm, his dark eagle eyes were bottomless, making it impossible to guess what was going on in his heart at this moment. What are you thinking?

"The rice grain is [-] tans short, and this king is thinking... who on earth is so courageous?" Nangong Longze replied lightly, his eyes still deep, as if recalling something thoughtfully.

The air seemed to fall into a deathly silence for a moment, and Huangfu Ling Feng frowned and stared at Ji Lu: "Vice General Ji, are you sure you have taken back all the people who went to the house yesterday? Ten thousand tans of rice grains are missing...how could it be such a coincidence?" ?”

"This subordinate is sure that he has taken it back. He first went to Lian Yuan's mansion, followed by Boss Qin and Gu Bo, and finally went to Xiong Er's place. This is the king's special confession, and the subordinate dare not ignore it." Ji Luyi With a serious face, he said, this is [-] tans of rice, how dare he be negligent, he is sure that he has indeed brought it back.

Huangfu Yuqing and Nangong Longze looked at each other, and the doubts in their eyes grew deeper and deeper. Suddenly, the woman said faintly: "This matter... maybe there is someone who can help us."

Her words couldn't help but aroused the doubts of the men. Huangfu Yuqing smiled, and looked sideways at Ji Lu: "Vice General Ji, please go and call Fengling over, brother, take me to see the scene first, even if it is Thieves who steal things will definitely leave clues."

Huangfu Lingfeng brought the woman into the tent, and Huangfu Yuqing quietly looked at the furnishings inside. All the things were neatly arranged, and there was no sign of being tampered with on the surface.

"There's so much rice, don't you have people guarding it at night?" Huangfu Yuqing frowned slightly, and looked sideways at Huangfu Lingfeng. It seemed that my brother was too busy these days, and even neglected such an important matter. .

"It's not that there are no guards, but that there is a shortage of manpower everywhere these days, and it is really impossible to mobilize too many people. Besides, these thieves' methods of stealing food and rice are too clever. The guards who were on duty last night said no. Hearing any movement, rice grains were stolen silently, even if they are gods, they may not be able to do it!" Huangfu Lingfeng asked doubtfully, and his brows frowned even more, he couldn't think about it no matter what. I don't understand, there seems to be a lot of doubts in this.

Hearing this, a dark color flashed across Huangfu Yuqing's eyes, after a moment of contemplation, she suddenly stared at the man and blurted out: "Is it possible... those guards were drugged, and they didn't even know when they passed out. "

When Huangfu Yuqing said this, Huangfu Lingfeng also fell into confusion, and couldn't help frowning, thinking about something thoughtfully.At this moment, Feng Ling has come here with Ji Lu, and she probably heard what happened from Ji Lu on the way here, and she also felt that it was a bit strange, ten thousand tans of rice is not a small amount, even if she moved away, she would have to How could such a large movement have not been discovered after spending a lot of manpower, material resources and time, it is really suspicious.

"Princess, are you looking for a servant girl?" Feng Ling walked to Huangfu Yuqing's side, but her nimble water eyes were still rolling. She was always extremely sensitive to the fragrance, and she immediately smelled the strange smell left in the air. .

"Feng Ling, you lost [-] tans of rice grains last night. You are an expert in this area. You carefully chirped and helped to calculate the total. Who could have done this?" Huangfu Yuqing explained the incident in detail. over again.

Feng Ling first sniffed with his nose, and said with a serious expression on his face: "My servant thinks that the concubine's guess is correct, there is indeed a scent of fragrance left here, if this servant's guess is correct, this fragrance should be The smell of tuberose, this tuberose can make people fall asleep in the blink of an eye, and it can also make people hallucinate, those who fall asleep may not realize that they have fallen asleep until the moment they wake up, This is also the true magic of Ye Lai Xiang. But as far as I know, this Ye Lai Xiang is hard to find, because there are only a handful of people in the world who can develop this incense, except for the Shangguan Palace Master of Qinglong Palace , there are only two people in this world who understand this fragrance."

Seeing that Feng Ling spoke clearly and logically, and Huangfu Yuqing's lips curled up into a satisfied smile, she knew that she would not be mistaken. This girl Feng Ling has been in the Jianghu since she was born, and she may be more aware of some heresy.

"Very good." Huangfu Yuqing nodded, and fixed her sideways eyes on Huangfu Lingfeng: "Brother, I have already said that there must be something strange about this matter, come and see that there are only half footprints here, could it be Don't you find it strange?"

While the woman was talking, Nangong Longze had already walked in, his eyes couldn't help looking at where the woman was pointing at, and he heard Huangfu Lingfeng blurt out: "Why is there only half a footprint?"

Huangfu Yuqing's gentle but sharp voice continued: "The footprints here have obviously been processed, so only half footprints are left."

"It seems that someone did this deliberately..." Huangfu Lingfeng nodded slowly, obviously agreeing with Huangfu Yuqing's guess.

"Lingshen, summon the soldiers who were on duty last night to come in. This king will interrogate himself. Ji Lu, you and Feng Ling are in charge of investigating the news of Ye Laixiang. Before it gets dark today, you must give this king a letter." Nangong Longze Faintly said, throwing [-] dan of grain and rice is small, but the majesty of the royal family is great, these people dare to break ground on Tai Sui, do they really think that King Pingnan is a vegetarian?

………Susu Gorgeous Dividing Line………

The night was dim, and two black figures climbed up to the roof of the ancient house through the darkness. The man walking in front did not forget to reach out to help the woman behind. With the strength of the man, the steps of the woman's feet became lighter.

These two people are Nangong Longze and Huangfu Yuqing. According to the news from Fengling, the old lady who died in Ning'an's ancient family was Miss Tang Qi who was a branch of the Tang Sect. , everyone didn't know her original origin.

"Ze, who do you think that is?" Huangfu Yuqing tugged at the man's sleeve, and the two of them slowed down suddenly.

Nangong Longze looked in the direction of the woman's finger. Under the dim light of the ancient long corridor, the thin and old figure outside the company came into their eyes. Seeing his hasty pace, there must be something important...

"Just ask him to lead us the way." Nangong Longze's lips curled into a playful smile, Zhengchou was not familiar with the terrain here, and the sudden appearance of Liancheng undoubtedly made things much easier.

Huangfu Yuqing's cold lips also evoked a slight smile. Being able to go out to do errands with a man at night really made her very happy. Originally, she thought Nangong Longze would reject her request, but she didn't expect the man to agree. Very surprised.

Liancheng walked in a hurry, but it made people feel that he was familiar with the terrain of the ancient family. It seemed that the two of Ning'an's four evils seemed to have a good relationship. Watching Liancheng enter a room, Huangfu Yuqing and Nangong Long Ze also followed from the roof.

Across the tiles of the roof, Huangfu Yuqing pressed her small face against the tiles, but still could only vaguely hear a deep male voice, which was not clear. In the corner of the tile, faint light flows out from the slits, and the two of them can also gaze at the scene inside the house from the slits in the roof.

I saw that this room turned out to be Gu Yin's study room. At this moment, Lian Cheng had already sat down firmly on the seat opposite to him. The bright white light of the night pearl on the table case clearly reflected the wrinkles on his vigorous cheeks. He looked Doesn't seem very happy.

"Brother Gu, isn't it too unkind for you to do this?" Liancheng's voice was full of complaints and anger, and the young old boss sitting opposite him didn't seem to care about the anger on the old man's face. , the big hand seemed to carelessly move the porcelain lid of the teacup lazily, and made a faint sound——

"Brother Lian is so angry, what is the reason for this? If you don't tell me... how will my younger brother understand!"

"Tell me! What did you do last night? Don't think that you did it without anyone noticing it. You know that the people in the government have already started to investigate. Are you doing this to hurt the big guy?" Liancheng glared at the man fiercely, and snorted coldly: "The old man has always thought that Brother Gu is quite far-sighted among the younger generation, but why is he becoming short-sighted now? Do you know who that King Pingnan is? Now You stole the donated grain and rice back, don’t you understand that you’re embarrassing him? If he stays in Ning’an and doesn’t leave, when will we have a bright future?”

"Brother Lian, what are you so excited about? Isn't it because of the [-] dan of grain and rice? But do you know that among the four of us...only three donated [-] dan, and that Xiong Er didn't even bother to donate [-] dan. We were all fooled that day." Gu Yin's deep voice was full of displeasure, and when he mentioned that Xiong Er, he really wanted to stab that bastard with a knife, why didn't he respond that day? come here?Until Nangong Longze ordered Ji Lu to follow him back to the mansion to fetch food and rice, the more he thought about it along the way, the more he felt something was wrong, and among the four of them, only Xiong Er was the calmest.
