A stepping stone?
All the guards looked at the tables and chairs placed in the room, and sure enough they saw that one of the tables had four feet resting on a stone.
Ning Chuyi waved towards Wei Feng.
Wei Feng immediately strode over with two Jinyi guards and moved the table away.
Gong Ping's expression changed, but he didn't dare to step forward to stop him.
After the table was moved, Wei Feng knelt down and put the four stepping stones together and looked at them.
These stepping stones are not ordinary stones. They have cutting marks on them. At first glance, they are jadeite rough stones, just scraps.
The master who cut it must have discovered that there was no jade in it, so he used it to pad the table.
Seeing that Wei Feng was still studying the mystery of these stones, Ling Chu could only suggest, "Cut the outer skin."
Wei Feng's eyes lit up, he drew out his long sword and waved it at one of the stepping stones.
With a crisp sound, a piece of skin fell off.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
No one thought that the stepping stone had been tampered with, and that the jade pendant was hidden inside after being hollowed out.
Jin Yiwei, who was in charge of the search, looked ashamed. They searched the house three times. Whether it was the tables and chairs, the walls, the beams on the roof, or the ground, they searched every inch, but found nothing.
In fact, even the jadeite stones discarded on the ground were moved several times when they checked whether there were hidden passages on the ground, but no one thought that there would be something hidden in the stone that cushioned the table.
Soon, the other three stepping stones were also cut open by Jin Yiwei.
In addition to finding jade pendants, hairpins, earrings, pendants and other small accessories, there was also a key hidden in one of the stepping stones.
Liu Jin, the eunuch in charge of Jinxiu Yuzhen, had just returned from the palace when he was called into the palace for questioning early in the morning.
At this time, seeing the key that was exactly the same as his, his fair and beardless face turned black, "The Zajia family was still surprised that the key was not lost, but the items in the warehouse were exchanged. It turned out that someone secretly allocated the keys to the warehouse. key."
At this time, Eunuch Liu wanted to crush the person behind him to ashes. He was in charge of Jinxiu Yuzhen. Now that something happened, the emperor was very dissatisfied with him. He summoned him to the palace today and cursed him bloody.
Although some small trinkets were found, they were not the ones that had been dropped.
Originally, Ling Chu wanted to scan each place one by one, but seeing that the workshop was not small, he was afraid that his body would not be able to support it for a long time, so he had no choice but to use the hexagram technique to do some calculations.
Seeing that Ling Chu had gained something as soon as she arrived, the Jinyi guards had great confidence in her.
But Deputy Steward Gong Ping's heart was lifted.
The second prince looked ugly. He glared at Gong Ping angrily and then winked at him.
Gong Ping dared not speak out in anger, and took Ling Chu to the backyard intentionally or unintentionally.
However, Ling Chu ignored him and turned around, walking towards a side road.
The veins on Gong Ping's forehead jumped, and he hurriedly said with a smile, "Miss Ling, there is only one hut over there, why don't I take you to the backyard to have a look."
Ling Chu glanced at him, ignored him, and continued walking forward.
Talking also takes effort, and in her current state, she can't afford to waste any of it. I really don’t want to speak unless necessary.
Seeing that she ignored him, Gong Ping was extremely anxious, but he did not dare to act rashly. After all, Lord Ning was following him with the royal guards.
Everyone followed Ling Chu, and the second prince could only follow him with a dark face.
Although the second prince didn't know what was wrong in the latrine, he noticed something was wrong with Gong Ping's expression.
Rolling his eyes, the second prince turned to Ning Chuyi and said, "Master Ning, Miss Ling has to change clothes. It wouldn't be right for us to follow. It's better to stay here and wait."
Ning Chuyi didn't stop and said softly, "The second prince has a distinguished status. It is really not suitable to go to dirty places such as the latrine. You can just stay here and wait."
Seeing that Ning Chuyi did not listen to him, but instead led people to follow Miss Ling further and further away, the second prince was angry and helpless, so he could only flick his sleeves and continue to follow.
With him here today, that bastard can't keep the black gauze hat on his head. The second prince turned to the guards and said, "You will act according to the opportunity later."
"Yes." Naturally, the guards did not dare to resist the second prince's order.
In addition to being supplied to the emperor and the harem, the jade articles made of Jinxiu Yuzhen were also sometimes made into jewelry ornaments for some royal family members and others.
The status of these people is extremely noble, and the latrine is a dirty place in the eyes of the world. In order to prevent the jade products from being contaminated with any unpleasant smell, the workshop built the latrine farther away.
Ling Chu's body was already weak, and after walking for a while, his forehead was already covered with a thin layer of sweat. If it weren't for time, she would really want to lie down on the spot and not leave.
Just when my legs started to tremble, I finally saw the hut.
Ling Chu couldn't wait to open the system.
"Miss Ling, do you want to search the latrine?"
"But we have searched the latrine, and even dug the ground almost ten feet deep, but we found nothing."
Ever since a large sum of money was dug out of the latrine of the Minister of Household Affairs, these Jinyi guards never dared to let go of the latrine when they searched it.
But this time they didn't find anything in the workshop's hut.
Although Gong Ping looked calm on the surface, he was actually getting more and more uneasy in his heart. He always felt that Miss Ling was a bit evil.
Hearing the discussion of those Jin Yiwei, Gong Ping hurriedly comforted himself to stay calm and not to let anyone know that something was wrong.
Ning Chuyi saw that Ling Chu's face was astonishingly white, and the worry flashed in his eyes, "If you can't hold it anymore, just take a rest."
Ling Chu was feeling tired and nodded towards him. Seeing that a stone next to it was fairly flat, I hurriedly walked over to it, and regardless of whether it was rude or not, I bent down and sat down.
Although the Jinyi guards were anxious, they did not dare to say anything.
Ling Chu also knew that time was tight, so he immediately said to Ning Chuyi after sitting down, "Gong Tong."
Gong Tong?
You Jin Yiwei almost thought he heard wrongly.
It can be seen that Ning Chuyi looked towards the latrine thoughtfully, and everyone couldn't help but follow his gaze and turn their heads.
On the left side of the latrine, there are indeed two large buckets.
It’s not like the Jin Yiwei who was in charge of searching the latrine didn’t see the two buckets, but the buckets were only full of two large buckets of night incense. Those jade items that had been dropped could not be hidden in the night incense, right?
Although Ning Chuyi did not think that those jade articles would be hidden in the night fragrance, out of his trust in Ling Chu, he still ordered the Jinyi guards around him, "Pour out the night fragrance and search carefully."
The second prince had been paying close attention to Gong Ping secretly. Seeing that his face was as white as a puppet, he hurriedly and secretly winked at the guard beside him.
Then he said to Ning Chuyi, "It's getting late. My father is still waiting in the palace. Let my guards help me and speed up."
Before Ning Chuyi had time to refuse, the second prince's bodyguard had already walked quickly towards Gong Tong...
