"Master Lai, the rest of the house has not been touched, right?"
"No, except for the confusion when Feng Mansion arrested people, all the items in the mansion have not been touched." Lai Junjie said.
"Why?"
"There is an order in the seal not to be tampered with." Lai Junjie explained, "The Liu Mansion only hides the imperial criminals secretly. Until the case is investigated, his private property is protected."
"Well, where are the servants of Liu Mansion?"
"Most of the servants were dismissed, but all the martial arts guards in the Liu Mansion were detained." Lai Junjie said, "The relationship between these people and Ding Xian must be found out to determine whether they are innocent or guilty."
"Is there a list of dismissed servants?"
"have."
"Can you make a copy for me?" Luo Xing asked.
Lai Junjie glanced at Ye Liuli and found that she had no objection. He hurriedly said: "This is no problem. I will ask my subordinates to make a copy and give it to Captain Luo later."
"Thank you, Mr. Lai."
"I've searched this time and found nothing special. Let's go back." Ye Liuli saw that no useful clues were found in Ding Xian's residence, so he decided to return.
"Your Highness, I would like to take a walk around Liu Mansion and have a look?"
"Okay, Qingyi, you stay with him. Don't stay too long. I'll go back to Nanya first." Ye Liuli glanced at Luo Xing and nodded in agreement.
Luo Xing nodded slightly.
Lai Junjie was a little surprised. What was Captain Luo's background? What he said, Her Royal Highness almost refused to accept it. He wanted to stay and asked Qingyi to accompany him. This was simply putting the cart before the horse.
Is it possible that the rumor is true, that Qingyi Qinglang, who is supported by the most beautiful woman in Nanya, actually likes this young secret agent?
Let the good young prince of the Su family not marry, but marry a young captain with no background and no foundation?
"Lai Shaoqing, I want to go to Dali Temple. How about asking Mr. Lai to lead the way?"
"I am very pleased to see you."
…
"Xiao Qi, what is there to see in Liu Mansion?" Qingyi didn't understand why Luo Xing stayed and asked after Ye Liuli and Lai Junjie left.
"Qingyi, do you know that this Liu Mansion does not belong to the Liu family at all?"
"What's the meaning?"
"This Liu Mansion originally belonged to a wealthy Nanchu businessman named Qian Dengke. Thirty years ago, he was doing business in Luojing and purchased this property. Qian Dengke disappeared thirty years ago, and this house was abandoned. It has been more than ten years, but he left the person to care for the house until three years ago, when the house was transferred to Liu Qian's name."
"Transfer of ownership, is this Qian Dengke coming back to deal with the house?"
"No, it was the 'Huitong' counter that transferred it to Liu Qian, the transfer deed issued by Jingzhao Mansion, and the land and house deeds were re-applied." Luo Xing explained.
"Did the 'Huitong' cabinet shop collude with Jingzhao Mansion to seize Qian Dengke's real estate?"
"You are right to understand that. The owner of this house stored the house deed and land deed in the 'Huitong' locker shop, signed a custody contract, and paid ten years' storage fees in advance. You also know the rules for safekeeping of valuables in the Huitong locker shop. Yes, if you do not come to pick it up after the expiration date, it will be automatically renewed. As long as the owner pays the storage fee when he comes to pick it up again, you can naturally take away the things you have kept. If the owner really forgets or disappears, the cabinet shop will have to deal with the hidden things. , there are also regulations. For example, if the value of the hidden items is lower than the storage fee, it can be disposed of after being publicized. However, if the value of the hidden items is much higher than the storage fee, the cabinet shop is not allowed to handle it without authorization unless it waits for the storage fee. The storage fee incurred exceeds the total value of the item. If the owner fails to come to claim it or the descendants do not take the token to pick up the item, then the cabinet shop can publicize it and then dispose of it by itself. Obviously, although the ten-year period has passed, But its value far exceeds the cost of storage. Huitong Cabinet broke the promise it made, privately took other people's property as its own, and even gave and received privately. What would happen if this news was exposed?" Luo Xing Said slowly.
"No one trusts the reputation of Huitong Locker Shop anymore and dare not store valuables in Huitong Locker Shop's vault." Qingyi took a breath of air-conditioning.
"In addition, it may also trigger chain effects, such as runs!" Luo Xing said.
"Xiao Qi, how do you know this?"
"Qingyi, what if I say that the title deed of this house and the deposit certificate of the house are in my hands?" Luo Xing looked at Qingyi and said.
"ah?!"
"Are you a descendant of Qian Dengke?"
Luo Xing shook his head: "No, I just happened to get his relics and found these things in them."
"Doesn't that mean that this house should belong to you?"
"It belongs to us." Luo Xing said, "I originally wanted to tell you some time and give you a surprise when I get the house back, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen."
"So, you have known for a long time that Liu Ming is Ding Xian, and you are still hiding in Liu Mansion?"
"I don't know about this. It's just a coincidence. Who would have thought that he would change his name and hide in Liu Mansion."
"But where did you get these things?"
"Ghost market, I bought some things in the ghost market. In the middle layer of a Feng Shui geography book, I found a storage voucher signed with the 'Huitong' cabinet shop, and a letter left to the finder, which also gave instructions. I found the voucher to go to the cabinet to collect the house deed and land deed. But when I found out that the house already belonged to the Liu family, I didn't dare to go. The Liu family were relatives of Cheng Guogong. Even if I had the voucher, they might not recognize it. Maybe, just deal with me directly, these powerful people can do anything." Luo Xing explained.
It's not uncommon to pick up money in the ghost market. Some people are lucky enough to get rich overnight in the ghost market. It's hard to say whether you can keep this wealth.
"Now that the Liu Mansion is sealed, it is the best time to get the house back." Qingyi also saw that if the house had been occupied by the Liu family, it would be really difficult to get it back. She opened the "Huitong" cabinet If there is a scandal in the square, that person will risk his life with you.
Although the "Huitong" cabinet shop is controlled by the Shen family, the royal family has shares and is connected to the economic lifeline of the Zhou Dynasty. Once the reputation collapses, the consequences will be disastrous.
Although Qingyi does not have much knowledge in finance, she is also aware of the consequences. If the lid is really lifted, the enemy will definitely take advantage of the situation. By then, the Great Zhou Dynasty will be in chaos, wars will break out, the people will not be able to live, and the country will be overthrown. .
Of course, the consequences may not be that serious, but who can guarantee that everything will be fine?
This kind of thing is definitely not an isolated case. It’s hard to say whether there has been such a thing before, but it is definitely not the only one now.
Once you start something sweet, you can't stop it. This is human nature.
"This house is now worth at least two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver."
"So expensive?" Qingyi was shocked.
"This is a government residence covering an area of more than three acres. It exceeded the regulations when it was built. It was later modified, but the overall structure has not changed. How expensive is the land in Luojing? Who lives in Dongcheng? Can a house be cheap?" Luo Xing said.
Maybe someone is eyeing this house again now.
"Xiao Qi, do you really want this house?"
"Windfalls are given by God. If you don't accept them, you will suffer them. What's more, the Liu family is about robbing other people's things, and we are not." Luo Xing said, "If we want to get married, I can't even have a family." I won't even give it to you. Is it possible that we are getting married in your small courtyard? I don't want to be said to be a bride-in-law."
"You mean, this house is used for us two to get married?" Qingyi exclaimed in surprise.
"of course."
"We have the vouchers in our hands. As long as we go to the Huitong counter store, we are not afraid that they will not admit the account." Qingyi said happily.
"If they first find an excuse to stabilize us, or say they don't recognize our identity as Qian Dengke's descendants, and then find someone to pretend to be Qian Dengke's descendant and submit a complaint to Jingzhao Mansion, they will then find someone to do it on purpose. They spread rumors to smear us, saying that we stole Qian Dengke's belongings, and there was such a back and forth in the court. Jingzhao Mansion is already on the same side as them, do you think they will give a fair verdict?" Luo Xing said with a chuckle.
"No, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture has always been held concurrently by the prince. This dynasty has not established a crown prince, so it is changed to be held concurrently by the provincial minister. The prime minister actually acts as an agent and does not assist."
"The provincial minister under the sect is Cai Jin. The Shen family also has a daughter in the palace and gave birth to the fifth prince. He should be the prince with the least chance to aspire to the throne. It makes sense for Cai Jin to win over the Shen family and pave the way for the eldest prince. "
"Although I don't want others to treat us with the greatest malice, we must consider all the troubles we may encounter. Once these people really use such methods to deal with us, how should we respond?" Luo Xing said .
"Xiao Qi, I think we can ask His Highness to help us."
"His Highness can help us for a while, but he can't help us forever. What's more, if His Highness helps us, how can we repay this favor?"
"Why are you so fussy?
"It's not that I'm fussy, but there is no such thing as a free lunch. Why does Your Highness want to help us? She helped us without asking for anything in return. Do you think this is possible? Even if she can help us without asking for anything in return, we can accept it with peace of mind. , without giving anything in return?" Luo Xing asked.
"What His Highness wants is that he doesn't want to marry to Xirong." Qingyi said.
"I know, but your highness's marriage is also a state matter, and I want to help, but you and I are low-ranking officials. No matter how much we can do, she herself can't control her own marriage, let alone us?" Luo Xing said.
"If we can cause a rift in the relationship between Xirong and Dazhou, maybe His Highness won't have to marry Xirong?"
"Have you never thought that if there is a rift, getting married is a good way to make up for the rift and repair the relationship?" Luo Xing said.
"Xiao Qi, how about we leave Luo Jing?" Qingyi said.
"Qingyi, you and I both belong to Nanya. We can only stay in Nanya for the rest of our lives. Even if we leave Luojing, we will come back in the future. Besides, if we run away when we encounter difficulties, wouldn't it be a cowardly act?" Luo Xing said.
"Then tonight, can you come to my room?" Qingyi said shyly.
"What?"
"Are you coming?"
"Your bedroom is not soundproof, so you should wait until we take possession of this big house. By then, even if you don't let me in, I will go in with a shameless face." Luo Xing said, it was almost impossible at noon today. The matter was done, but after much thought, it was fortunate that it was not done, otherwise Hong Ying who lived in the same house would have heard it all.
