Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

Yin Jinan had just become an official, so it was a bit rare that he was dressed neatly and went on duty today. He patrolled the palace for a whole day with his colleagues from the Palace Front Department.

When he got off duty, he met Xu Li waiting for him at the palace gate, who said that Xie Zhaozhao wanted to see him about something.

Yin Jinan rode his horse through the streets and arrived at Qingpuyuan. After listening to Xie Zhaozhao's account of the whole story, all of Yin Jinan's excitement for the day was gone.

His handsome face was suddenly filled with anger, and he said, "Yin Jinzhuo and Pei Yue used their little brains for adultery, and what they did was really vicious and stupid. If I were more ruthless, I would smash this celadon vase and completely implicate the entire Duke's Mansion, and they would never have a good ending."

Xie Zhaozhao said: "In that case, don't be polite to them."

That night, Yin Jinan returned to the Duke's Mansion.

At the end of the 3:00 p.m., have dinner.

According to the rules of the Xunguo Mansion, all the masters of the mansion eat together for three meals a day. Male and female relatives sit at separate tables, separated only by a screen.

Yin Jinan ignored everyone and just ate and drank.

The master was eating, and the maids and servants were serving him. Apart from the sound of chopsticks gently hitting the bowls and plates, the dining table was quiet.

Suddenly, a maid ran into the women's dining room in a panic and reported to the Duke's wife: "Madam, it's bad. The pair of celadon vases that the late emperor gave to the Duke are missing!"

Pei Yue's face changed, and her voice suddenly rose eight degrees: "What, the imperially bestowed celadon vase is missing? When did it disappear?"

The maid's voice was anxious and panicked: "I don't know either. The bottle is covered with dust."

The Duke's wife was surprised and said, "I'll go and take a look."

Hearing the noise coming from the female family, Duke Yin Xiushan asked, "What happened? The imperial gift vase is missing?"

Yin Jinan turned a deaf ear to him and just ate and drank soup with big mouthfuls.

Yin Jinzhuo said angrily: "You still have the appetite after your food is lost?"

Yin Jinan said coldly: "The gift from the emperor is lost. This is a capital crime. The whole government may suffer. If I don't eat quickly, will I still have such a good meal in prison?"

Pei Yue said anxiously: "The mansion is heavily guarded, and ordinary people can't get in. It must be that someone in the mansion was in urgent need of money and sold or pawned it."

Outsiders could not enter, and no servants in the mansion could break into the inner room to steal.

The Duke's wife immediately thought of the huge sum of money Yin Jin'an had spent on dinner, so she walked up to him, knocked over his bowl, and angrily asked, "Second brother, where did you sell your celadon vase?"

Great, everything is exactly as expected!

Yin Jinan said lazily: "What if you want me to say that I didn't take it?"

The Duke's wife said angrily, "In the whole mansion, no one else can do such a thing except you. Get the bottle back quickly, no matter what the cost."

Yin Jinan said nonchalantly: "Really?"

"real!"

"Then give me half of your property and I'll tell you where the bottle is."

"Yin, Jin, An! You bastard, I'm going to beat you to death!" The Duke was furious. He turned the chopsticks in his hand into darts and shot them at Yin Jin'an.

Sure enough, it was this bastard who stole it. From the looks of it, did he sell it? Pawn it? Did he give it away?

"If you kill me, the bottle won't come back, and you'll all be buried with me."

Yin Jinan dodged the chopstick dart nimbly and said wickedly, "If you agree to my terms, I will tell you where the bottle is."

Pei Yue and Yin Jinzhuo both anxiously tried to stop the Duke and his wife: "Father, Mother, we can't agree to him."

"You don't have to agree. You won't get the bottles anyway." Yin Jin'an said calmly, "Half of the family property in exchange for a pair of imperial bottles! We are brothers, each with half of the family property. It's fair, and I didn't ask for more."

Duke Xun was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot. He picked up a big stick and hit Yin Jinan with it.

This stick will at least cripple Yin Jinan, who has been beaten so many times since childhood that he has gained experience.

He jumped up and ran into his yard, locked the door, and shouted, "Give me half of my property, and I will immediately cooperate with you to get the bottle back."

Yin Jinzhuo was both angry and anxious. He was the son of a duke who had switched from a military background to a scholarly one. He was more gentle and talkative. Whenever he met someone like Yin Jinan, he always felt humiliated.

The Duke's wife cried and said to Yin Xiushan, "Lord Duke, agree to him. Nothing can compare to the life of the whole family! No, the whole family. This is a heinous crime that will implicate all nine generations of the family!"

Pei Yue and Yin Jinzhuo were very anxious. What if his parents agreed to give him half of the family property? Wouldn't that be shooting themselves in the foot?

Yin Jinzhuo calmed down and persuaded him, "Father, what he took away was a pair of items bestowed by the emperor. They can't be sold for a while. It is very likely that they were pawned in a pawnshop. Why don't we all go out and look for them? If we can find them, wouldn't it be better to redeem them?"

"Yes, father," Pei Yue said anxiously, "My second brother has such a bad temper that he can't keep the property. Even if we give him half of the family property, he will squander it in a few days. Why don't we do as the prince said and go to a pawnshop or something like that to have a look?"

Yin Xiushan was unable to open Yin Jinan's door, and was anxious to get back the celadon vase. Desperate, he immediately asked someone to find a pawnshop.

Yin Jinan's servant Cheng Yu saw them leaving in a rush, and then he carefully returned to Yin Jinan.

Yin Jinan stretched his feet on the coffee table, closed his eyes, and his face was full of hostility.

Cheng Yu asked quietly, "Second Master, did you really take the celadon vase?"

"What do you want to do with that? Are you short of money now?"

"Hey, I told you that it's impossible for the Second Master to take it. But what are they trying to say?"

"Don't worry, they will come to me for help."

Cheng Yu chuckled and gave a thumbs up: "Second Master is Second Master!"

Pei Yue and Yin Jinzhuo started out acting, pretending to go to the pawnshop anxiously to inquire. There were a total of seventy-two pawnshops in the capital.

In order to act more realistically, the two went to other pawnshops first, and after asking four or five of them, they took people to Sun’s Pawnshop.

When the shopkeeper saw that the person he was asking about was actually Duke Xun, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

It had only been half a day and the Duke and the Crown Prince had come to the door in person.

The shopkeeper nodded and bowed, and said a lot of nice things, which he summed up in one sentence: I don’t have any celadon appreciation vases here, let alone one given by the emperor, how dare I accept such a thing?

At this moment, Yin Jinzhuo and Pei Yue were really anxious.

"Boss, think carefully, has anyone ever claimed to be Mr. Yin's servant? The bottle is so big——"

Pei Yue was so anxious that she described the vase in detail to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper spread his hands: No!

Pei Yue was anxious and threatened: "Boss, if you dare to hide the gift from the emperor, your entire pawnshop will be shut down in the capital, and your entire family will be killed without a burial place."

The shopkeeper flicked his sleeves, his previous respectful look disappeared, and he said bluntly: "Does the Xunguo Mansion want to force roosters to lay eggs and mules to give birth?"

Duke Xun frowned and said, "Zhuo'er, tell your wife to leave, don't be rude!"

He said to the shopkeeper, "Since we don't have it here, let's ask at the next place."

The shopkeeper bowed and said, "Goodbye, Duke."

Pei Yue refused to leave and swore to Yin Jinzhuo, "I got the news that my second brother pawned the vase in this pawnshop."

Xun Guogong said: "Who told you that?"

"Of course my daughter-in-law has a source of information, and my father also has secret guards around him." Pei Yue said confidently, "My daughter-in-law guarantees with her life that the pair of celadon vases must be in Sun's Pawn Shop."

The shopkeeper of Sun's was also very tough: Even if there were thunderstorms in winter and snow in June, the shop would not be able to produce any celadon vases!
