Chapter 75

Shangguan Ruoli lowered his eyes, and said lightly: "Since the guards have been changed, the mansion is very safe. Maybe there are internal thieves in the Wutong courtyard. Brother Xiao Han suggested to search the Wutong courtyard first..."

Qu Xiaohan's eyes lit up, and he smiled dotingly, "You, you have learned to be naughty!"

Xiao Yunqing has been in charge of the family for so many years, there must be a lot of tricks in the Wutong courtyard, and he will swallow his words when he hears that he searched the Wutong courtyard first.

Qu Xiaohan got up to say goodbye, and went to Wutong Courtyard. According to what Shangguan Ruoli said, Xiao Yunqing immediately found a step to come down.

If the secret prison is discovered, she will die without a place to bury her.

Xiao Yunqing was trembling with anger. After breakfast, she wanted to take money to let Liu Er go out to work, but found that the money and some jewelry were missing.

Not knowing well, he opened the secret compartment under the bed, and found that his savings over the years and the medicine box were gone, and he almost fainted from anger.

So, he wanted to make a big search of the house and let Shangguan Tianxiao see the result of letting those two sluts be housekeepers, but Qu Xiaohan's words made her swallow her teeth in her stomach.

Xiao Yunqing sat on the chair with red eyes, guessing who did it in his head, suddenly his expression turned serious, he rushed into the deaf-mute woman's room regardless of daylight, turned on the trap and entered the dark cell.

Opening the dark room where Xiao Fei was imprisoned, and opening the fire pocket, there was no rotting corpse as imagined, only four iron hoops left on the stone wall.

Xiao Fei was rescued, the antidote was stolen, it's over!

Xiao Yunqing slumped against the stone wall, slid down slowly, and shivered in despair as he sat on the wet and cold ground.

It took a long time for Xiao Yunqing to regain his senses, standing up while leaning on the stone wall, and walked out of the prison step by step.

When the servants saw that Xiao Yunqing had rushed into the deaf-mute woman's room and came out with a pale face after a long time, they were all surprised and puzzled.But Xiao Yunqing from Wutongyuan was saved, she was still her own, no one dared to ask and no one dared to speak.

Seeing Xiao Yunqing like this, Liu'er was also slightly taken aback, but stepped forward to support her, and comforted her softly: "Madam, don't worry, you can save money if you run out of money, as long as you are fine."

Xiao Yunqing narrowed his eyes, and said solemnly: "You go out of the house and do something for me, and be careful not to be watched."

Liu'er hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely take care of it!"

Xiao Yunqing whispered a few words in her ear, Liu Er nodded solemnly, then tidied up and left the house.

Xiao Yunqing also tidied up a bit, changed into plain clothes, took off the gorgeous hairpin, and put on a simple bun with a simple silver hairpin.

Then he knelt down to the door of the main courtyard, waiting for Shangguan Tianxiao to come back.

The sun at noon in summer shone on her body, beads of sweat dripped down her body, and her clothes were wet and dry with sweat, dry and wet again.

Shangguan Ruoxian smiled slightly when he heard about it, knowing that Xiao Yunqing was going to advance by retreating, playing the emotional card and playing tricks.After ordering people to watch, Shangguan Tianxiao came back to inform her, and then what to do.

When it got up in the afternoon, the shade of the trees turned around, and Shangguan Ruoxian and Shangguan Zhao also went.

Shangguan Ruoxian knelt behind Xiao Yunqing, muttering: "Is mother stupid? Father is so busy, he must come back late, what's the use of you kneeling so early?"

Shangguan Zhao also said: "Yes, if Father loves us, it's the same whenever he comes to kneel. If he doesn't love us, kneeling for three days and three nights is all right!"

"Shut up!" Xiao Yunqing shouted, she knew that there were people watching around.

What's more, Shangguan Tianxiao is not stupid.

In the past, Shangguan Ruoli was autistic and ignored him, but when he saw that Shangguan Ruoli was well fed and well dressed, he had no doubts.It's different now, he has become suspicious and sent someone to investigate something.

How could he be easily fooled by a soldier with no background who fought for the position of the general of the town with one shot at a time?
The three of them knelt until the second watch was over, secretly worried that Shangguan Tianxiao would come back when Shangguan Tianxiao stayed in the barracks at night.

Seeing Xiao Yunqing's daughters kneeling at the gate of the main courtyard, she was not very surprised, apparently the servants had already reported to him when they entered the mansion.

"What are you doing?" His voice was flat, with no emotion or anger.

Xiao Yunqing kowtowed falteringly: "Master redeems my sins! I am incompetent and not strict with my subordinates, which has repeatedly caused catastrophes."

She hadn't eaten or drank for most of the day, and she had been in the sun for so long, her paleness and weakness were not fake at all.

Shangguan Ruoxian supported Xiao Yunqing who was about to faint, and wept in a low voice: "Father, this morning, mother found out that Wutong Courtyard was stolen, and lost a lot of banknotes and jewels."

Xiao Yunqing cried: "That's the income from my sister's dowry business over the years and some precious jewelry and jade. I originally made the dowry for Ruoli, who knows... woo..."

Shangguan Tianxiao frowned slightly, looked at them thoughtfully, and asked, "Listen, have you found out who the culprit is?"

Shangguanzhao said angrily: "It's my good cousin who bloodbathed Meixiangyuan and committed the heinous crime of betraying the Lord. After he escaped, he brought someone back and stole Wutongyuan. He is familiar with the terrain of the mansion, so he succeeded easily! "

Shangguan Ruoxian wept, "It's all because my mother is too kind. She pitied him and trusted him, but she ended up like this!"

Xiao Yunqing leaned against Shangguan Ruoxian cooperatively, weeping silently.

Xiao Yunqing wept and said: "Money is a trivial matter. Those things are my thoughts left by my sister. Although I have used some things for the children to go around in the various houses over the years, what is left is my sister's. Beloved, I, I didn't honor my sister's deathbed entrustment, I don't regret dying! Woooooo..."

Shangguan Ruoli, who was eavesdropping from a distance, felt like he was shooting himself in the foot with a stone. This Xiao Yunqing is really a genius!
"Mother! We are the ones who got you down. Father and elder brother are away all year round, and you support the family alone. If we are more successful, you will not touch your aunt's dowry when encountering difficulties... woo woo..." Shangguan Ruoxian hugged Xiao Yunqing and wept uncontrollably.

Shangguan Tianxiao's eyes softened a bit. Yes, it would be good for him to stay at home for three months a year. It's really not easy for a woman in the Xiao family to support the huge Zhenguo General's Mansion.

Although there are many faults, but for so many years of hard work in bearing children for him, there is hard work without credit.

At this time, Shangguan Ruoli came slowly with Piaorou on his arms, and said quietly: "I just asked my mother to hand over the real dowry list yesterday, and framed the old and fake dowry list and hung it on the bedside, and it will be released today." Such a thing is really a coincidence.”

"Li'er, the night is so dewy, why are you here?" Shangguan Tianxiao hurriedly reached out to help Shangguan Ruoli.

Xiao Yunqing and the three of them all looked down.

Shangguan Ruoli laughed at himself and said, "My daughter is already blind, so there is no difference between day and night. Otherwise, the mother would not have given the daughter a fake dowry list. If Mother Su hadn't seen it, the daughter would have been kept in the dark. "

Xiao Yunqing's face was pale, and she kowtowed and said, "I know I'm wrong, I'm just afraid that the master will blame me if I know that I have touched my sister's things, and I was confused for a moment, so I did such a stupid thing, please punish me!"
