While the two brothers in Yancheng were discussing how to cooperate with Shen Haolin and Shen Cha's actions, Xijing's preliminary investigation of the Yan Family Villa was still continuing.
Among these people, Jin Miaomiao was considered to have extensive knowledge and knowledge. She saw that Song Yaojia was interested in the big willow tree in the courtyard, so she walked over and stood side by side with him, raising her head to look at the towering willow tree. canopy.
"A century-old tree has a story. It has witnessed one history after another, whether it is something we know or something we don't know."
"Why is His Royal Highness suddenly so emotional?"
"I just suddenly remembered the former owner of this garden." Song Yaojia sighed softly, "Prince Tong, a very legendary figure."
"It is indeed very legendary." Jin Miaomiao nodded in agreement. She looked at the blue sky and chuckled, "When we were young, Master was talking about this prince, and Xiaocha had a very fitting description of him. description."
"What?"
"Peerless elegance." Jin Miaomiao smiled at Song Yaojia, "He conquered many people with his unique charm, but also made many people feel dangerous. And the aloof Emperor Chongde is probably The one who fears him the most, even if this legendary prince is his brother."
"They can only be regarded as brothers in name. The thin blood relationship is almost negligible, and it is far from overriding Emperor Chongde's suspicion of him." Song Yaojia sighed, "Those courtiers have never thought about it. Their support and pursuit are actually knives piercing King Tong's body. They are all responsible for the fate of King Tong whose fate is unknown. Of course, it may not be their intention. After all..." He sneered. He shouted, "If the powerful prince and His Majesty the Emperor cherish each other, they will be the ones who have a hard time."
"We have already arrived at the city, and you are still thinking about how miserable your life will be?" Jin Miaomiao sneered, "It is unlucky to have such a ruined courtier, whether it is Emperor Chongde or Prince Tong."
"Everything is destined, they are unlucky, both of them." Song Yaojia patted Jin Miaomiao on the shoulder, "Let's go inside and see if the situation is the same as the big gourd bottle in front. He waved to Bai Meng, "Come, let's enter through this door."
The three people walked into the room that looked like a study room with shadows in high spirits, fully expecting to find the contact point of the so-called mechanism again.
But unfortunately, until they looked through the entire courtyard, they could not find anything similar to the gourd bottle or something close to the mechanism.
"What's the situation now? Nothing is found? Except for the two big gourd bottles in front, there are no furnishings in the style of the previous dynasty?" Jin Miaomiao stood next to the dried lotus pond in the third courtyard. He looked around a little discouraged, "Is it possible that we guessed wrong? In fact, the lack of decoration has nothing to do with the agency?"
Song Yaojia and Bai Meng looked at each other. They felt guilty now and began to doubt whether their previous judgment was wrong.
"Anyway, the drawing is finished, right?" Seeing Jin Miaomiao nodding, Song Yaojia waved her hand, "Let's go, we'll talk about it before we go out."
Seeing the group of people returning to the front yard dejectedly, Shen Haolin and Shen Cha, who were chatting with Uncle Qing, looked at each other.
"What's wrong? Not very interested?" Shen Cha held his cheek and looked at these dejected people, "Didn't find anything?"
"We have found something, but very little." Jin Miaomiao put the picture he drew in front of Shen Cha, "We found these two gourd bottles in the front hall, which may be related to the agency. Other courtyards, There were no suspicious items in any of the other houses.”
Shen Cha picked up the pictures, looked at them carefully, and handed them to Shen Haolin.
To be honest, she couldn't see any problem after watching it for a long time. She is a first-rate master in arranging troops, but in terms of the mechanical art of Qimen Dunjia, she can only be said to have a superficial understanding of it at best. , Small and simple mechanisms can still be broken, and the possibility of success is still relatively high, but at the level of other hospitals, she can't do anything.
"What do you think, brother?"
"I can't tell." Shen Haolin was also confused after reading it. "It should be better if Xiaotian is here."
"Among us, my cousin is the only one who is interested in this." Song Qiyun looked at the drawing in Shen Haolin's hand and shook his head while looking at it, "Isn't this just a normal home furnishing? There's something wrong with it. place? "
Jin Miaomiao pointed out the strange appearance of the two large gourd bottles in the front hall. Several people became curious and helped Uncle Qing, who was also curious, to go in and take a look.
"You guys!" Uncle Qing waved his hand after reading, "I still saw too little and my knowledge is too shallow!"
"Uncle Qing, what does this mean? Doesn't it have anything to do with the agency?"
"Your Majesty, it definitely doesn't matter." Uncle Qing patted Song Yaojia's arm, "You were right what you said before. This is the style of porcelain from the previous dynasty, but you don't understand it thoroughly enough. The utensil-shaped gourd bottles must be fixed in a certain position, as you can see, fixed on both sides of the screen. This kind of fixation looks simple, but in fact it is very complicated to operate. You guys The black round sphere you see is used to move the gourd bottle after being pressed down. This makes cleaning easier."
"So that's it."
Song Yaojia scratched her head in embarrassment. It seemed that they were thinking too much, and it really had nothing to do with the agency.
"Okay, don't be so discouraged. After all, we are not good at this, so we still need to find people who are good at it to help." Song Qiyun looked at the sky outside, "It's getting late. If we go back now, we can still get in before the city gate closes. city."
"Then let's go!"
The group of people hurriedly hurriedly and slowly entered the city before the city gates were closed. At this time, the lights were already on, and the number of people on the street gradually decreased. Most people had already gone home for dinner.
Shen Haolin and Shen Cha first sent Song Yaojia and Uncle Qing back to Prince Dai's Mansion. Only then did they know that Prince Dai and Wu Qingruo were not in the mansion. They had gone out after breakfast in the morning and have been staying at the Forbidden Army's station until now. return.
Bai Meng waved his hand to Song Yaojia, who was about to find someone, and told him to stay at home without worries. He was responsible for sending the two elderly people back personally.
"Don't go, just go home and have a good rest!" Bai Meng saw that Shen Haolin, Shen Cha, Song Qiyun, and Jin Miaomiao were also coming with him, so he quickly refused, "Xiaoyun, do you want to go back to the palace?" ?”
"No reply." Song Qiyun shook his head, "I will ask Shadow to send a message to Brother Huang later. I will stay in the mansion tonight."
"That's okay." Bai Meng hugged a few people and said, "Everyone, I'll see you tomorrow!"
After watching Bai Meng leave, Shen Haolin asked Ying Wu to enter the palace with his token and told Song Jue that they were back. What they discovered in the village today would be discussed in detail after the court tomorrow. By the way, he also told him that Song Qiyun would not return to the palace at night and would stay at the Duke's Mansion overnight.
At the same time, Shen Cha also sent people to Xuanyuan Courtyard to bring today's drawings to Xuanyuan Liang and Tantai Pingchuan, asking them to take a look at how to crack the mechanism of this courtyard.
