Bai Suzhen turned around and took the brocade box handed over by Bai Fu. The moment her fingers touched the brocade box, a ray of light flowed out from her fingertips and flashed around the edge of the brocade box like lightning. She turned around, met Xiaoqing's eyes, and smiled slightly.
Xiaoqing's eyes lit up, she raised her eyebrows, and looked at Bai Suzhen while holding back a smile, then glanced at Liang Lian and the others, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she was ready to watch the fun at her leisure.
"Mr. Liang, please take a look—" Bai Suzhen gently opened the brocade box and turned the treasure in the box towards Liang Lian, letting him take a look. At the same time, she opened her red lips and reported the name of the treasure, "—Heaven and Earth ** Sandalwood Burner"
"How... is it possible?" Huo Feng's face changed, staring at the treasure in the brocade box in disbelief. He clearly saw with his own eyes that the treasure stolen from the palace, the Time Bagua Furnace, was put into the brocade box by the people of Bao'an Hall. How could it be... that it has inexplicably become the so-called Heaven and Earth ** Sandalwood Furnace? After racking his brains, he still couldn't figure out the key. Huo Feng's face turned pale, and he turned his head anxiously, looking at Liang Lian cautiously: "Young Master..."
"Master Liang, is this heaven and earth magic sandalwood burner a treasure that was stolen from Prince Liang's mansion?" Bai Suzhen looked at Liang Lian quietly and asked.
Liang Lian frowned and stared at the treasure in the brocade box for a long time, then said expressionlessly, "No."
Bai Suzhen nodded, put away the Tiandi** sandalwood incense burner, handed it to Ziying beside her, and took another brocade box from Bai Fu and opened it: "A Hedian jade carved bottle. Mr. Liang, please take a good look, is this the treasure stolen from your Liang Palace?" Bai Suzhen gently took out the jade bottle from the brocade box so that Liang Lian could take a closer look.
Liang Lian only glanced at it, and frowned even more: "No."
"This one—" Bai Suzhen took the third treasure, which turned out to be a scroll: "—It is a picture of a lady holding a lantern with eight trigrams." She slowly unfolded the scroll halfway and looked up at Liang Lian: "Mr. Liang, do you want to take a look at the painting on this scroll?"
"No need!" Liang Lian turned around and said coldly, "Goodbye!" without even looking at the last treasure.
Watching Liang Lian and the others walk away, Bai Suzhen sighed silently, but the expression between her brows did not seem to be relaxed at all.
"Sister—" Xiaoqing moved the corners of her mouth and was about to say something, but was stopped by Bai Suzhen with a look.
Bai Suzhen looked past Xiaoqing and looked at Shopkeeper Li and Xiaoqian on the side, and said, "Shopkeeper Li, Xiaoqian, just keep busy with your own things. What happened just now was just a misunderstanding, don't take it to heart."
"Madam Bai, those people just now won't come back to cause trouble, right?" Xiao Qian asked worriedly.
Bai Suzhen smiled and shook her head, saying, "Don't worry, Xiao Qian. They won't come back to cause trouble for the time being."
"Oh." Xiao Qian nodded and felt relieved, but he didn't notice that Bai Suzhen had just said it was just temporary.
"Madam Bai, Miss Qing, we are going to get busy." Shopkeeper Li took some money, and the two of them bowed and withdrew, each going to get busy.
"Sister, do you think Liang Lian will come back?" Xiaoqing pondered the meaning of Bai Suzhen's words.
"Liang Lian is not an ordinary playboy. Although he is arrogant, he is also very cunning. Although I just managed to deal with him, I don't think he will give up... We must find a way to get things done as soon as possible." Bai Suzhen turned around and handed the scroll in her hand back to Bai Fu. After a moment of hesitation, she instructed the Five Dragon Envoys, "Bai Fu, you guys keep the treasures well and bring them to my room." After that, she said to Xiaoqing, "Qing'er, come with me. I have something for you to do." She lifted the bead curtain and went to the back hall. Xiaoqing didn't understand why, so she had to follow her.
Outside Bao'an Hall, Liang Lian walked down the stone steps. After taking a few steps, he suddenly paused and stopped.
"Young Master..." Huo Feng and the other two who were following Liang Lian also stopped immediately. They looked at each other, and a look of uneasiness appeared on their faces.
"Hu Guang, are you sure that the woman in green was the thief who stole the treasure?" Liang Lian asked in a deep voice without turning back.
Hu Guang said quickly, "Yes, sir. I have fought with that woman in green before and remember her appearance and voice. There is no way I can make a mistake. That woman in green is definitely the treasure thief."
"So - Huo Feng, you really saw it clearly -" Liang Lian suddenly turned around, stared at Huo Feng, and asked word by word: "- Those people from Baoan Hall displayed in public the four treasures that were stolen from my Liang Wang Mansion?"
"Sir, this is a serious matter. If I hadn't seen it clearly and was sure of it, I would definitely not have followed the people from Bao'an Hall all the way. It's just..." Huo Feng looked bewildered and puzzled: "I clearly saw with my own eyes that the people from Bao'an Hall put the treasures into the brocade box one by one and brought them back to Bao'an Hall. There was no chance to exchange the treasures along the way. I really can't understand why the brocade box changed its appearance after the woman in white opened it..."
"Sir, according to our men, there must be something strange about that woman in white." The soldier who was searching for the whereabouts of the treasure with Huo Feng couldn't help but speak out.
"Magic!" Hu Guang suddenly shouted, and said to Liang Lian nervously, "Sir, that woman in white must know magic just like the woman in green who stole the treasure! She must have cast magic on the brocade box, so the treasures we see have changed their appearance."
Huo Feng frowned and said, "Sir, if those two women really knew magic, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with them."
"Demon magic?" Liang Lian's pupils shrank slightly, and his fingers clenched imperceptibly. He stared at the gate of Bao'an Hall from afar, and sneered softly, "Then I will find someone who specializes in capturing demons to deal with them."
Huo Feng interrupted: "Young Master, are you referring to the monk Fahai from Jinshan Temple?"
Liang Lian snorted coldly: "My father donates a lot of money to Jinshan Temple every year. It's time for the old monk Fahai to repay his kindness-"
Huo Feng echoed, "Young Master, you are right. Monk Fahai is known for his profound Buddhist skills and the ability to subdue demons and monsters. If the two women from Baoan Hall really know magic, we can let Monk Fahai deal with them and then force them to hand over the stolen treasures."
A cold look flashed across Liang Lian's eyes, and he ordered, "Hu Guang, go to Jinshan Temple right now and ask Fahai to come to Suzhou Prefecture to capture the demon! Humph, anyone who dares to steal the treasures of my Prince Liang's Mansion and go against me, I will never let him off easily!"
