The tone of the general's wife was full of weakness. After she finished speaking, she quietly wiped away her tears, her eyes full of pain.
It looks so pitiful and pitiful.
All the servants in the house lowered their heads. Even if they didn't say a word, it could be seen that most of them were quite shocked.
Bai Quan glanced at Liu Shengsheng silently, then looked away, and then said: "Okay, stop crying and crying. I already know what the situation is. Don't just kneel there, stand up."
Hearing these words, the general's wife was shocked at first, then kowtowed and thanked her profusely!
Liu Shengsheng looked at her intently. After looking at her for a long time, she didn't see anything suspicious. Then she slowly said, "Did all the gold in that box go out? You didn't keep any of it?"
The general's wife just got up from the ground, her forehead was stained with blood, she just shook her head pitifully, "When we knew that the box of gold was dug out, the box of gold had already been used up...".qgν.
Liu Shengsheng frowned, "The amount of gold that the old general can sneak back from the battlefield is definitely not in the minority, right? Besides, it was buried underground, which shows that the box is definitely not small. Such a big sum of money is so short. Time has run out?"
Hearing her question, the general's wife burst into tears again.
She wiped her tears quietly and couldn't answer a word.
It was the maid next to her who was supporting the general's wife and said cautiously: "Young lady, you don't know something. The eldest young master always likes to gamble, and the amount he gambles is always very large. No matter how much money he has, he can't withstand his... …”
"After all, this is also a general's residence! Looking at the entire capital, few people dare to dominate you, but you can't even educate your own children well. Not only that, but you can also make your own children Is it a shame that the child has lost all the family property?"
Bai Quan couldn't help but give her a roll of his eyes, and then said in an angry tone: "I am really curious, who dares to bankrupt your general's palace?"
The general's wife lowered her head silently.
Bai Quan angrily rebuked: "I know, it's not just your young master who likes to gamble, right? I'm afraid that this expensive capital has many gamblers like your young master, and because everyone has a distinguished status, they can Let your dignified general’s office be helpless!”
The general's wife said weakly: "That traitor does have a lot of bad friends, but those bad friends never dare to come to see him. They always get along with him secretly. And since he likes to gamble, he never gambles in just one place. There are indeed many nobles and nobles in the city mixed with him, but most of them are those chaotic people in the world. There is no way to investigate, so I can only restrain him by myself, but unfortunately, there is no way to restrain that traitor..."
As he spoke, he burst into tears again.
Bai Quan was helpless, "Okay, okay, cry standing up, cry on your knees, and still cry when you get up. You women, old and young, love to cry. You can cry for a long time even if you just say a word. It's really annoying."
He waved his hand and said: "I will handle this matter. A small gamble will make you happy, but a big gamble won't do. What's more, he is the son of an important official in the court. If you can't restrain your children in the future, I will To restrain you, if there is another gambling behavior like this that ruins everything, I will put them in jail one by one until they change!"
The general's wife nodded silently, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern."
Unknowingly, it was already midnight, but the group of people in the General's Mansion were still in high spirits. To be precise, they were all on alert, for fear that a single oversight would cause the displeasure of the young prince.
Bai Quan yawned several times in a row. At some point, he walked next to Liu Shengsheng and put his hand on Liu Shengsheng's shoulder.
"It's been so long and there's still no news. Why don't we just withdraw and talk about it tomorrow."
Liu Shengsheng could understand what he meant by news.
Zuo Yu has not come back yet, and the box of gold has not been recovered. Although we have a general idea now, we are still not sure whether the virus is related to the box of gold.
Only by finding the box of gold can we determine whether the source of the disease comes from
There.
Thinking like this, Liu Shengsheng said: "I have slept for too long and I am not sleepy yet."
Seeing Bai Quan yawning again, she added, "If you are sleepy, go back and rest first. I will come back and talk to you after I investigate the matter clearly."
Bai Quan immediately became serious, "You are not sleepy, how can I be sleepy?"
Liu Shengsheng smiled and said, "I wonder who keeps yawning."
The corners of Bai Quan's lips twitched, "That's because it's time, even if I'm not sleepy, still..."
"My lord, I found it!"
At this moment, Zuo Yu's voice suddenly came from not far away.
In an instant, everyone present looked in that direction and saw Zuo Yu walking in a hurry. .qgν.
I saw him striding forward, holding a small box in his hand. Within two steps, he walked in front of Bai Quan, holding the box and kneeling on the ground.
"My subordinates searched several places and finally managed to find a few ingots of gold. However, my men are still searching. I believe they will be able to find all the gold one by one tomorrow. Please take a look at it, Your Majesty!"
Bai Quan nodded and reached out to take the box. Just as he was about to open it, Liu Shengsheng put his hand on the box.
"Don't touch it, let me do it."
After saying that, she carried the box directly over.
Bai Quan's face changed slightly, "No, if you are afraid that the things inside are poisonous, you can let others come, but what are you touching yourself?"
Seeing that Liu Shengsheng had already opened the box, Bai Quan immediately grabbed her hand and said, "Zuo Yu, come and get it."
Zuo Yu stood up silently.
Liu Shengsheng gave them a look, "I have taken medicine, and this virus can't hurt me now, so even if it is really poisonous, you should stay away."
After finishing speaking, she directly picked up the ingot of gold inside.
This real gold and silver is heavy. Not only is it substantial, but its shape is also very beautiful. Liu Shengsheng took a look at the gold, and there was nothing wrong with her expression.
When Zuo Yu saw this, he quietly stepped aside.
Bai Quan asked: "Are you sure you can get all the gold back?"
Zuo Yu nodded, "As long as we investigate everyone who has been in contact with the eldest son during this period, and then investigate along those people, we can recover everything. This gold is not a small amount, and we can get even Not even one of them is an ordinary person, so I promise that I can definitely recover them all!"
After hearing his assurance, Bai Quan nodded slightly, "That's good."
