The number one sweet wife: Young marshal, hold on!

Chapter 113 Millennium Ancient Artifact?

Seeing that he finally asked about today's affairs, Yun Xi's face showed a regretful expression, and his voice was a little listless.

"I was shopping today, and I saw a very beautiful box. It was made of bronze... Well, there are beautiful patterns on it, I like it very much... Just as I was about to buy it, the man rushed out and took it away .”

Hearing this, Du Qing did not comfort Yun Xi who was secretly arrogant with gentle words like before.His eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly:
"What does that bronze box look like?"

After going back and forth, he couldn't see the specific appearance of the thing clearly, and wanted to confirm it with her.Thinking about finding that thing by himself... He beamed with joy.Then he has a bright future in the future.

Yun Xi glanced at Du Qing lightly, then showed that he really loved that thing, and said happily:
"Well, that box... This box is only about the size of a palm, and its whole body is ancient blue. The surface of the box is engraved with lifelike dragon patterns, phoenix ornaments and pictures of auspicious clouds. The patterns and workmanship on it are beautiful."

The more Yun Xi described it, the more joyful Du Qing's expression became.Yes... maybe this is what he was looking for.Turning around, he saw Yun Xi staring blankly at him with big watery eyes, and there seemed to be water flowing in those bright and clear eyes.Yun Xi looked at him ignorantly, and said rather puzzledly:
"What are you asking this for?"

Afraid that Yun Xi might suspect something, Du Qing forced himself to suppress the joy in his heart.The corners of his mouth still couldn't help but curl up, completely different from the previous serious look.He also reacted quickly, looked at Yun Xi and said in a voice as gentle as water:

"Oh, it's all right... I just want to know what you like. Someday I will ask my subordinates to find one to make you happy."

Yun Xi raised his eyebrows, watching the joy he suppressed.There are many thoughts in my heart... I am more and more interested in the secret behind that mysterious bronze box.I wanted to get some information about the bronze box from Du Qing, but his mouth was very tight. Even though Yun Xi had put in a lot of effort, he couldn't get any useful information out of his mouth.

Instead, every time he picks up the topic, and then talks about ambiguous nonsense.Yun Xi felt dull and displeased.Seeing him still talking about his plans for the future "gently and affectionately", Yun Xi raised his eyes to look at the clock hanging on the wall, and then pretended to be eager to say.

"Oh, I forgot, I still have something to buy today... I have to go back soon."

As she said that, she looked at Du Qing apologetically, and said with regret.

"It seems that this is the only way to go today, I have to go."

Du Qing was not annoyed by the sudden interruption, and he didn't even change his eyes.Gentle way:

"Well, it's okay, since you have something to do, go back first... Anyway, we have plenty of time in the future, so let's go."

Looking at Du Qing's ambiguous eyes, Yun Xi couldn't help shaking the goosebumps on her body.

Du Qing sent Yun Xi to the door, and the guards outside told Yun Xi that the maid she brought said she was going back to prepare something for her, and had already left first.Yun Xi frowned, and muttered with a dissatisfied look:
"Really, you didn't even wait for me to see how I deal with her when I go back."

Sensing Du Qing's probing gaze, Yun Xi pursed her lips.Bow to him in thanks:
"Thank you, Chief Du, today. I'll treat you to dinner another day, okay?"

Du Qing's face showed joy, he would naturally not refuse such a good opportunity to get close to her.

"Well, then I will trouble Miss Lu."

Seeing that he agreed, Yun Xi said goodbye and left.

When Yun Xi turned around and walked away, the gentle and considerate smile on Du Qing's face suddenly cooled down.Kind of, just boundless indifference and numbness.He turned around and walked back, and told the adjutant behind him:

"Go and check the person who bought the box... and the old man who sold the box. Such an important ancient artifact... how could it appear in the hands of an old dealer. Remember, don't startle the snake."

The adjutant behind him got serious, saluted as expected, and hurriedly proceeded to do it.

Du Qing's expression relaxed a bit, and he walked into the room humming an unknown military song with his hands behind his back, looking overjoyed.In a dark corner, a petite figure also sneaked out without a sound.

Tang Youyou concealed herself all the way back to her room from the secret passage of the Lu Mansion, and told Yun Xi what she saw and heard in the Du mansion, even Du Qing's complexion changed.

"After you left, that Du Qing really asked someone to investigate the peddler and the strong man. And... I also heard him say that the box is an important ancient artifact."

After finishing speaking, she was a little worried:
"Will there be any problems with those two people?"

Yun Xi sneered in his heart, he was afraid that even if they turned Li Cheng upside down, they would not be able to find those two people.She gave Tang Youyou a reassuring look, and then noticed another thing Tang Youyou said.

"Ancient artifact?"

Although she had already seen in her heart that the thing had at least many years of history, there was a strong aura on the box, the kind of heavy historical precipitation.I didn't expect it to be an ancient artifact... In this way, this box is at least a thousand years old... In this era, if you get such an ancient artifact, you can be said to have made a fortune.But Yun Xi thought about it, if it was just for this reason, how could the military family spend so much effort to find it... Behind this, there must be a bigger secret.

Seeing Yun Xi pondering, Tang Youyou also rolled his eyes and thought about it, and then suddenly said in surprise:

"You said, this box is so powerful... Who is that person who owned this box before?"

Yun Xi frowned, yes, what is the identity of this person... For some reason, she suddenly became very interested in Huo Haochen's identity.

"Yuyou, tell me...we found out the secret of the bronze box through Du Qing, can we find out the identity of that man just like this?"

Tang Youyou nodded, she always felt that these two things were closely related.

Yun Xi also made a decision in his heart, and the corner of his mouth slightly evoked a determined smile.This thing... seems to be getting more and more interesting.

……

For unknown reasons, Du Qing went to Lu's mansion to look for Yun Xi the next day.As before, they visited Lu Peishun first, and then the eldest lady sent someone to ask Yun Xi to go there.She thought about finding clues to the bronze box, but she didn't refuse.Fearing that the other party would suddenly suspect her change, Yun Xi still pretended to be reluctant when getting along with him.
