The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 813: The Orb Theft Case [Part 2]

Views:

Concubine Wu, who was still full of charm, folded her hands on her still flat belly, put her toes on her toes, and paced like a cat.

Every step he took, his body swayed visibly to the naked eye, and even the thick sable fur couldn't hide the concave and sag.

That movement is not big, but it is just right to sway people's hearts, and people can't help but secretly feel the meaning of 'exploration'.

When he was young, he was actually the same as that Liu Du, but only after he gave birth to a son, he deliberately restrained his fascination.

But it's hard to paint a tiger's skin and bones, and just these few steps revealing the modesty she just deliberately displayed.

But she said that this Concubine Wu had already arrived at the door, but suddenly stopped, turned her head and said solemnly: "Three adults, I have a sentence here, and I don't know if I should say it."

She said she didn't know what to say, but she didn't wait for the three of them to respond, and she raised her voice again: "If I did this, I should have done it when North Korea came to the envoy three years ago. Why wait until now?"

Just now, she was beating around the bush, always going around the Liudu people, and Sun Shaozong knew that this person was trying to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble.

I just made a few comments, and saw that she was just a hint that this case must be done by Liudu people, but I couldn't say why, so I didn't take it up again.

She didn't want to come, she still did not forget to smear Liuduren again - that Liuduren was only welcomed into the mansion by King Zhongxin two and a half years ago, and naturally there was no chance to start three years ago.

Sun Shaozong glanced at Hu Tai from the corner of his eye, and saw the play who instructed Chang Shi to bow slightly, to look at his nose and his heart, just like an old monk entering meditation, but there was a bit of bitterness between his eyebrows.

It seems that this man is helpless about the palace fight scene in front of him.

Sun Shaozong's heart was sullen, and he cupped his hands and said: "Thank you for reminding me, the lower officials must keep it in mind."

Seeing his sincere attitude, Concubine Wu nodded with satisfaction, and then walked away gracefully on tiptoe.

When her figure completely disappeared outside the door, Sun Shaozong laughed and took out half-warm tea for himself to moisten his dry throat.

At this time, the thin steward walked in and said with a bitter face: "Do you want to continue to ask questions now? Liu Du seems to be... a little impatient."

Sure enough it was still noisy.

Seeing her in front of Concubine Niu before, she still didn't make any excuses, Sun Shaozong knew that 80% of them were going to make trouble.

But this is better, the more emotional she is, the easier it is to get some dry goods.

At the moment, Sun Shaozong was about to instruct the thin steward to bring Liudu people over for questioning.

Just as he was about to speak, the sound of footsteps approached outside, but Huang Bin, who left with the last hound, hurried back.

"grown ups."

After he entered the door, he bowed his hands and arched his hands, but he did not rush to report. Obviously, he was watching out for Hu Tai and Thin Steward.

Seeing this, the thin steward hurriedly bowed and backed out.

Hu Tai also stayed away for the time being.

However, how could the major events and minor affairs that happened in the Zhongxin Palace be concealed from his long history

Anyway, sooner or later he would know, so Sun Shaozong simply sold his favor: "Hu Changshi is loyal to the lord, and he will report how he should report. There is no need to avoid anything."

Only then did Huang Bin open his mouth to report: "There were only five hunting dogs. Two were lost halfway along the way, and the remaining three were parked near the kitchen outside the palace."

After a pause, he said again: "I took the night pearl base and let the three hounds circle around the outer kitchen. It seems that there is no other trace to be found."

"In addition, I also asked the steward of the kitchen. Since the stove was set up before dawn, no outsiders came in or out of the kitchen, and all the people in the kitchen never stepped out of the palace."

Through the dismantled dial, it has been locked that the thief stole the night pearl at about two quarters of the ugly hour [1:30 in the morning].

If the thief can leave the palace with the dirt directly, there is no need to turn to the outside kitchen.

So when he entered the outer kitchen, he either wanted to move the dirt with his comrades on the street, or he wanted to temporarily hide the night pearl in the kitchen and come back to pick it up after dawn.

At that time, the outside kitchen was already closed, and even if there were colleagues who stayed there to help, it would be difficult to find an opportunity to take Ye Mingzhu out of the palace.

That is to say, the night pearl is likely to remain in the mansion before dawn, and there is even a certain possibility that it is still hidden in the outer kitchen.

"Hu Changshi."

After straightening his thoughts, Sun Shaozong immediately said to Hu Tai: "Have you sorted out the list of people entering and leaving the palace since the time of being ugly?"

Sun Shaozong had already asked Hu Tai to send someone to count the time when he realized that the time was stopped on the dial.

Hearing Sun Shaozong's question at this time, Hu Tai immediately went outside the door and called the thin steward to ask for the list.

However, it seems that the list has not yet been drawn up, so after another half-quarter of an hour, Hu Taicai walked in with an unhappy expression and said with a wry smile: "I usually neglect discipline and raise these wine bags and rice bags, which makes Lord Sun laugh."

After investigating this case, he will have nothing to do with the loyal and trustworthy palace. How could Sun Shaozong care about their efficiency

Immediately laughing at it, he tapped the list in Hu Tai's hand with his chin.

Hu Tai immediately handed over the list, but saw that there were only three or five names written on it, followed by the time of their entry and exit, and the reason for entry and exit.

"I have sent people to look for these four people, but two of them have not returned home, so it may take a while."

Hu Tai said, hesitantly said: "Master Sun, let's check the outside kitchen first, maybe..."

Sun Shaozong raised his hand and stopped his words, then stared at the names above and thought for a moment, then pondered: "If things are still hidden in the kitchen, then the thief is still in the dark and has not acted - at this time Search the outside kitchen, I'm afraid I'll startle the snake."

"That's according to the meaning of the adults..."

"Might as well be a game and let him jump out on his own."

Sun Shaozong paused a bit when he said this, and then said: "But this game can only be set up by the palace - Sun must get out of the way, otherwise the thief may not dare to move."

This is not to brag, the shadow of the famous tree, knowing that Sun Shaozong is in the mansion, there may be a few thieves who dare to commit crimes, but they will never be too many.

Hu Tai wanted to ask in detail how to set up the bureau, but when he heard that Sun Shaozong was going to get out of the business, he was stunned for a moment, and then he frowned and said: "This... Master Sun was recommended by the princess and appointed by the prince. The person investigating the case has only been investigating for half an hour, and nothing has been found yet, if the lord retreats without a reason, I am afraid that it will arouse the vigilance of the thief."

Sun Shaozong smiled and pointed out: "It's impossible to retreat without a reason, but isn't there a ready-made reason?"

"The lord said..."

Hu Tai looked out suspiciously, but just saw a beautiful woman with a sullen face, probing her head impatiently outside.
