"Hu Guang, are you really sure that the woman in green is the one who stole the treasure?" Liang Lian looked coldly at Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing as they walked towards the back hall, frowned, and once again asked his men behind him for confirmation.
"Sir, I can swear that I have not made a mistake. It was this girl in green who came to our Liang Wang Mansion to steal the treasure!" Hu Guang's voice was loud to begin with, and now his voice became several times louder due to his anxiety. Every word he said was clearly heard by Xiaoqing who was just picking up the beaded curtain and preparing to leave. Xiaoqing turned around, raised her eyebrows, glared at Hu Guang unhappily, and said, "Be careful with your words. If you want to slander me for stealing treasures, you must have evidence. If you keep making empty promises and talking nonsense, I will not be polite to you!"
At this time, someone was heard shouting: "Here is the evidence!"
Xiao Qing was startled, and looked up in the direction of the voice, only to see that the Five Dragon Envoys who were supposed to stay at the Three Emperors' Ancestors' Meeting had all rushed back, and their expressions were strange, as if they were in trouble. As soon as the Five Dragon Envoys stepped into the house, two men in tight clothes followed in, both of them were panting, and it seemed that they had been chasing the Five Dragon Envoys all the way.
"I am your subordinate, sir." The two men who came in knelt on one knee and saluted Liang Lian...
Here, Xiao Qing frowned, her eyes swept coldly over the Five Dragon Envoys, lowered her voice, and said unhappily: "What's going on? Didn't I tell you guys to be cautious? Why are you bringing people from Prince Liang's Mansion back to me now!"
Heimian's face fell, and he said innocently, "Princess, these two people suddenly jumped out of the crowd, pointed at the four treasures we were displaying and said they were their stolen treasures, which caught us off guard."
Lan Hun echoed, "That's right, that's right... We tried our best to get rid of these two guys, but they followed us too closely. We couldn't cast invisibility spells in broad daylight, so... we had no choice but to be followed by them all the way."
"Okay, okay..." Xiaoqing was too lazy to listen any more and asked Bai Suzhen in a low voice: "Sister, what should we do now?"
Bai Suzhen pondered and said, "So the other party has already seen the four treasures?"
Bai Fu said in annoyance: "Yes, Miss Bai, the people from Prince Liang's Mansion showed up too suddenly, and we didn't have time to collect the four treasures in time..."
Bai Suzhen nodded, looked at the brocade box in Bai Fu's hand for a moment, suddenly smiled, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter, Liang Lian has not seen the four treasures in the brocade box yet, I have a way to deal with them..."
"Huo Feng, why are you two here? How are you doing with the matter that I asked you to do?" Liang Lian looked at Huo Feng with doubts in his eyes. He came to Suzhou this time to find a doctor for his father and to secretly track down the whereabouts of the four treasures that were stolen from the palace. The four stolen treasures were tributes from the southern barbarians. He could not alert the government when tracking down the whereabouts of the four treasures, so he could only investigate secretly. And to find a doctor for his father, Liang Lian had to do it himself. He gave the task of tracking down the whereabouts of the treasures to his right-hand man Huo Feng. Now Huo Feng appeared in the Bao'an Hall, and coupled with what Hu Guang said just now... Liang Lian pondered for a moment, and a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes. He raised his sword-like eyebrows, and his eyes fell on the four brocade boxes brought back by the Five Dragon Envoys like lightning. Staring at the four brocade boxes, he asked word by word: "Huo Feng, what evidence did you just refer to?"
Huo Feng raised his hand and pointed at Bai Fu, Hei Mian and the others, and said to Liang Lian: "Sir, what they are holding in their hands are the treasures that were stolen from our palace!"
Liang Lian's expression was shocked, and a sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He raised his eyes and swept his gaze over the people in the Security Hall one by one. Finally, his sight fell on Xiao Qing. He stared at Xiao Qing coldly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked his men in a deep voice: "Huo Feng, are you sure?"
Huo Feng glanced at the Five Dragon Envoys, nodded, and said to Liang Lian, "Sir, I saw it with my own eyes. The five people from the Security Hall displayed the stolen treasures from our palace in front of everyone. When I revealed my identity and wanted to take back the four treasures, they took advantage of the chaos and packed up the treasures and left in a hurry. Fortunately, I followed them all the way here and prevented them from escaping."
"Hehe... Blackface, did you hear that? This guy actually said that we should run away if we see him. Isn't that ridiculous?" Lanhun curled his lips, crossed his arms, and glanced at Huo Feng with an unhappy expression: "Who does he think he is? Are we afraid of him?"
"That's right, it's really incomprehensible! It's almost time for lunch, and we come back to eat something and fill our stomachs. Do we need someone to take care of this?" Black Face and Blue Soul have always been in perfect harmony with each other.
Bai Suzhen smiled and said nothing, letting Black Face and Blue Soul deal with each other.
Huo Feng was not willing to argue with Heimian and Lanhun, and just said: "It will be useless even if you deny it. Just open the brocade box in your hands and everything will be clear."
Heimian rolled his eyes. "You said we should open the brocade box? Humph, who wants to care about you!"
Huo Feng snorted coldly, "The brocade box contains the treasures stolen from our Liang Wang Mansion. I saw it with my own eyes. You dare not open the brocade box in front of our master... Master, please give orders and have your men arrest all these treasure thieves."
Liang Lian stared at Bai Suzhen, smiling and saying, "Miss Bai, what do you think? Do you want me to order someone to arrest you and take the brocade box, or do you want to hand it over yourself?"
Xiaoqing sneered, her face full of disdain, but she didn't say anything. But she heard Bai Suzhen say calmly: "The four brocade boxes contain the heirlooms of my Bai family. I don't know why Mr. Liang's men insisted that they were the treasures stolen from your Liang Palace. Although my Bao'an Hall is just an insignificant small medicine shop in the market, its reputation cannot be slandered."
Liang Lian said in a deep voice: "Miss Bai wants to prove her innocence, why don't you open the brocade box immediately and let me see it clearly."
Bai Suzhen said, "I can open the brocade box in front of Master Liang and let him do a paternity test to see if the item in the brocade box is the treasure stolen from the Liang Palace. But - if the item in the brocade box is not the treasure stolen from the Liang Palace, Master Liang, what should I do?"
Liang Lian said: "I will take my people away immediately, and I will not force Xu Xian to come to Beijing to treat my father's illness!"
Bai Suzhen was waiting for Liang Lian to say this, and immediately said, "Okay, it's a deal!"
"Bai Fu, bring the brocade box here—"
