"Who?" Chu Jihan suddenly spoke. Su Ningxin stood up reflexively and raised her knife in a defensive position. Where was the person
Chu Jihan was shocked by Su Ningxin's sudden movement. There were question marks above his head. What happened
Then Chu Jihan saw Su Ningxin looking at him with a sad face, "Is this bitch entertaining me?" There is no one there.]
Chu Jihan pretended that he didn't know anything and looked away, swallowing silently. Fortunately, his tone didn't contain too much excitement and surprise, otherwise he wouldn't be able to explain clearly.
Take this as a warning and you must be more careful in the future so that no one finds out that you can read minds.
The matter here has been settled, and the two of them did not stay any longer. They went out to the warehouse to see how Lian Sheng and the others were doing with the tea.
When leaving, Su Ningxin mourned three seconds of silence for the soldiers in the room. When she woke up tomorrow, she would not only find that her face was covered with footprints, but she would also find that she had slept with the dead all night.
It's really pitiful, but what does it have to do with her? Su Ningxin spread her hands and left without even looking back.
On the other side, Lian Sheng and Shuang Bai had almost moved the things with their secret guards. Originally, the warehouse of the Tea Transportation Department was relatively remote. Due to the heavy guarding, ordinary people did not dare to approach. This resulted in that after all the soldiers were drugged, even Even if they opened the door and moved the tea openly, no one would notice.
Seeing Chu Jihan coming, Lian Sheng hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Young master's guess is indeed correct. The amount of official tea here is twice the amount stipulated by the imperial court. After we move half of it, there will still be enough tea horses to live for a while." Mutual market.”
Lian Sheng's eyes lit up when he said this. He wanted to praise the young master for his actions this time. Usually the young master knew how to spend money like water, but now he finally knew that he was making money.
Although it is a bit like pulling out one's teeth, it is a good sign anyway and must be encouraged.
Chu Jihan had an intuition that something was wrong with his eyes, but he couldn't guess what the other person was thinking, so he could only say with a straight face, "Don't be careless, it will be easy to find where you want to go later."
After sending Liansheng away, Chu Jihan turned to look at Shen Qing. It was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it was difficult to go from luxury to frugality. He was used to hearing Shen Qing's thoughts, but when faced with someone who couldn't see his heart, he It felt very inconvenient, but I still felt comfortable staying with Shen Qing.
[Hahaha, who should I choose to go to the boudoir at night for such a good thing?]
Chu Jihan pinched his chin with his hand and straightened his head. He wanted to take back what he just said. He was an upright person, and staying with such people with dirty ideas would only pollute himself.
Pulling the carriage borrowed from the Chamber of Commerce, he walked on the bluestone road of the main street without making any sound all the way down.
The group of people all had great skills, and they made no sound when they walked. The horseshoes and wheels were wrapped in linen cloth by Chu Jihan very richly, so that the crisp sound of the horseshoes disappeared.
Finally, everyone stopped outside the wall of Su Mansion. Yes, this was the place where Su Ningxin proposed to hide the tea leaves, and she frantically decided to hide them in Su Lanxin's yard.
After all, Mr. Su San is the magistrate of the state, and the possibility that the Tea Transport Secretary would dare to search the Su Mansion is very slim. After all, although the Xuanning Mansion is usually low-key, it is a dignified manor and is not someone to be trifled with.
Even if they were really brave and risked being caught by the Marquis of Xuanning for wearing small shoes in front of the emperor, the possibility of searching their daughter's boudoir was slim. If someone really broke into their daughter's boudoir, the Su family would be the world's leader. The biggest joke.
As for why she chose Su Lanxin's yard, Su Ningxin admitted that she did not rule out a little selfishness. After all, Su Lanxin was the only person in the entire Su family who had offended her.
But this is not the main reason. The main reason is that Su Lanxin's yard is in a good location. Her yard is close to the outer wall, which makes it convenient to transport tea leaves, and the possibility of being discovered by servants during the transportation is small.
Although Su Ningxin's own yard is also against the outer wall, she will not put such a hot potato on her property.
Ahem, no, Su Lanxin's yard has other advantages.
Su Lanxin is bedridden now and cannot get up, so she will definitely not run to the warehouse. Moreover, she is a concubine, and some valuable jewelry must be hidden in the boudoir. Where will it be placed in the warehouse, so her warehouse is almost just for display. Looks like.
With Su Lanxin's character, she would not admit it even if she looked at it. In order to avoid being discovered, she would definitely not let the servants in, so it was very safe to put the tea leaves there.
"Is it here?" Chu Jihan asked in a low voice. He stayed a little close to avoid disturbing others, and Su Ningxin couldn't help but want to kick him away.
Fortunately, Ji Chu was more sensible. He looked at her and moved away silently to save him from being kicked.
Nodding with satisfaction, Su Ning said in her heart, "It's right here. Just find a few people to blow some smoke in the servant's room, and then go to the girl's room to steal the key."
"Who is going?" Chu Jihan asked subconsciously. He swore to God that he didn't have any ideas. He was just worried that Shen Qing was plotting against him because he just heard Shen Qing's voice.
As a result, Chu Jihan received a look of disdain from Shen Qing, as if he was a slut who couldn't wait to enter his daughter's boudoir.
Heartbroken!
"You, a secret guard, don't know how to open a lock, why are you trying to steal the key?" This time, Shen Qing's contempt was genuine, and Chu Jihan's heart was greatly hurt.
Let me go, that's not what you were thinking just now. Aren't you the one who wants to explore the boudoir at night
Chu Jihan covered his chest to prevent himself from being angry to death, and then ordered a few people to play the incense.
After enduring it for a long time, Chu Jihan still couldn't help but ask, "Why did you choose the Su family? Do you know them?"
"I don't know." Su Ningxin replied decisively.
[I'm not, I haven't, don't talk nonsense, don't slander me with red lips and white teeth.]
"No? I thought you had a grudge against the Su family?"
When he eavesdropped on Mr. Su San drinking tea with the people from the Tea Transport Department, Chu Jihan thought that Shen Qing and Mr. Su San were old acquaintances. Later, Shen Qing proposed to put the official tea at Su’s house. Chu Jihan felt that Shen Qing and Mr. Su San were old acquaintances. There was a grudge, and now he had no idea what the relationship was between the two.
"I just came to Xingyuan Mansion not long ago. How can I make enemies with others?" Shen Qing replied as if he was joking.
[start a feud? Young man, you are too superficial. When the time comes and you finish the case, the Su family will take great credit just for taking such a big risk to help you.]
Chu Jihan: "..." I really appreciate you trusting me so much. If you are not careful about this kind of thing, it will be a serious crime that will implicate the nine clans. You are not afraid that the Su family will be ransacked and beheaded.
Chu Jihan looked at the place in front of Su Lanxin's yard. There was light coming from there, "Brother Shen, do you know whose yard was at that time? Why didn't you choose that side?"
[That's your father's yard. How could you be allowed to hide such dangerous items? Just let your dreams go.]
