I am imprisoned in Kaifeng Mansion

With the help of the Yu family brothers, after six days of investigation and cleaning of the cave in Anping Village, all organs in the cave have been completely released, and people can enter and exit normally without worrying about hurting people with hidden weapons.They found a secret room in the most remote part of the cave, and the layout of the inner room was like a gourd.

Han Qi only brought a few cronies inside, and the moment he entered the secret room was the 'Gourd Mouth', a place more than ten meters square, slightly wider than the corridor.Various types of weapons were hung on the walls here, and there was a long black wooden table on which were placed various hidden weapons, including the silver needles that the Straw Sandal Boy had used to poison Han Qi before.There are nearly a hundred silver needles ranging from thick to thin, from short to long, and they are all stored in a flat and long sandalwood box.The wooden box is engraved with Jiao, which leaps above the flames.

Looking at the wood and craftsmanship of this sandalwood, one can tell that it is not a folk thing.

Han Qi held the wooden box to his nose and smelled it, "The carving is exquisite, the color is new, and the scent of sandalwood is not weak, it is an object in recent years."

That is to say, this sandalwood box came from this dynasty, and the characters that can be matched with "Jiao" on the wooden box are either relatives of the emperor, or powerful ministers who have received awards.It can't help but remind people of Zhao Zongqing, who is now more suspected.

There are more than a dozen porcelain vases placed together with this box of silver needles, each two are put together, divided into blue and white, and the bottoms are marked with serial numbers one, two, three, etc. The serial numbers on the bottom of each pair of blue and white porcelain Consistent, it should be that different kinds of poison correspond to antidote.

"The poison on the silver needles that are very harmful may be one of them. I'll ask the doctor to check them later." Wang Zhao immediately called his subordinates to put away the porcelain bottles.

"Eh? Why didn't they hide here?" Li Cai felt that this secret room was quite hidden, and it took a lot of time for the people of Kaifeng Mansion to investigate here.

Wang Zhao: "After the cave is completely under the control of the Kaifeng Mansion, this secret room will be discovered sooner or later. There is no food and water in it. It will be more difficult to escape after a few days of suffering. It is better to take advantage of the chaos to confuse the public. Have the opportunity."

"Naihe was also caught while running around!" Li Yuan snorted coldly, "Anyway, they can't escape our pursuit anyway."

Going further inside, you will find the second inner room, which is the position of the 'Gourd Upper Belly', which is at least twice as spacious as the position of the Gourd Mouth. There is a large table case and two rows of bookshelves. The table case Except for inkstones, abacus, etc., nothing on the paper with writing remained. There was a large pile of ashes on the ground, which was left after the paper was burnt.

Judging from the amount of ashes, this inner room should be an accounting room. Many important accounts were stored on the bookshelves, but they were all burned.

Then continue to walk in, and you will find the third inner chamber, which is the largest "Gourd Down Belly", which has a very large space and can be regarded as a treasure house.There are more than [-] rows of wooden shelves, most of which are empty. Now there are a few scattered items left on the shelves, which can barely make up two rows, several jade wares of different sizes and styles, as well as coral trees, gold and silver utensils.

The southeast corner is very spacious, with twenty boxes placed, and there is still a lot of space around.Among the twenty boxes, there was a smaller box on the top, which was opened, and there were more than a dozen Jiaozi left in it, all of which were in denominations of thirty guan.The rest of the boxes are filled with copper coins, strung in strings with red strings, and each string is a string. There are about a few hundred strings in a box.

After fleeing in a hurry, the large items in the warehouse must be too late to take away, so they can only pick up light things.Previously, people who escaped from Anding Village, such as the white-haired old man and the girl in red, found various numbers of jiaozi, as well as a small amount of scattered gold and silver belongings.The jiaozi among them was probably obtained from this small wooden box.

Wang Zhao climbed to the top of the wooden frame and found some traces of items placed there.Because the wooden frame on the top floor is relatively high, it takes a lot of effort to clean it, and it is inevitable that the cleaning will not be in place.The place on the top layer where the objects were placed is thin in gray, and the part that has not been left in is thicker, thus forming a trace that resembles the shape of the base of the object.

There are traces of long, round, square... various shapes on the upper layer of the wooden frame, which shows that many objects have been placed there.Under normal circumstances, if the bottom layer is not full, things will not be placed first in places where the upper layer is inconvenient to access.So there is a great possibility that these shelves are full of treasures, but after the treasures were moved away, the lower shelves were cleaned, and the upper shelves were forgotten, so there will be no traces on the lower shelves, only the upper shelves. Ash thick with traces.

"If all these shelves are full, how much is it worth? I looked at the rest of these things, and there should be this amount." Wang Zhao raised one hand, implying that there are [-] guan.

"More than that, this one alone is worth more than ten thousand guan." Han Qi's hand touched the round jade stove in front of him. The top of this jade stove was carved with peacocks and white orchids.

"This peacock and white orchid are put together, it doesn't look like a traditional pattern, it seems to be quite special?" Cui Tao thought about the carved pattern.

"This is an object from Jingzhou Mu to celebrate his mother's birthday. His mother loves peacocks and white orchids especially. The jade furnace was lost in the sixth month after the birthday banquet. Jingzhou Mu suspected that the thief came to Beijing to sell this object. He once sent the blueprint of the jade furnace to Go to Kaifeng Mansion."

When Han Qi first took office as the Tutor of the Kaifeng Mansion, he read through all the unsolved case files in the mansion for the past ten years. Because the carved patterns on the jade furnace are quite special, he was particularly impressed.

"So, it's the people from Tianji Pavilion who stole the things from Jingzhou Mufu."

Wang Zhao surveyed the display of the entire warehouse, so many empty shelves.Now the value of only this little thing is close to [-] guan. If it is all, the total number is unimaginable.

"Do they really have so much money?"

"Not only do you make a living in the rivers and lakes, but also steal salt transportation maps and sell private salt business; you also have face-to-face business, doing business to make money. After a hundred years of accumulation, it is not surprising that the number is huge." Cui Tao asked Wang Zhao not to doubt, but to count The bigger the more real.

"This is the main rudder of Tianji Pavilion. The money is hidden in such a hidden place. If it is not a special situation, there should be no need to transfer it." Li Cai was puzzled why this place was empty. property?"

Wang Zhao shook his head and immediately denied it, "These desperadoes even dared to hijack the Liao mission. If they had known that we would make a surprise attack, they would definitely not be so passive."

"Then what is the reason for emptying this warehouse that was already full?" Li Yuan's hairs stood on end suddenly, and he realized the most likely answer, "Treason?"

Rebellion requires the use of troops, and the use of troops requires recruiting and buying horses, which will inevitably cost a huge amount of money.

Besides, they all have the guts to fight against the government, and it is not surprising that they have the intention of rebellion. The ancestors of Tianji Pavilion, the men in black, originally supported the Li Tang Dynasty.

"I'll arrange people to check the situation in various places, especially around Quanzhou and Bianjing, to see if anyone is secretly recruiting troops." If it involves treason, the case is too big, and we must be cautious and investigate quickly.

Wang Zhao immediately asked Han Qi for instructions, and after getting the answer, he couldn't wait for a moment, so he went to make arrangements immediately.There are officials Han Tui and Mrs. Cui investigating in the cave, so naturally no clues will be missed, so he can rest assured.

After coming out of the 'Hulu Xiadu', everyone turned back to the Hulu Shangdu.

Cui Tao did not forget to poke the ashes with a wooden stick to see if there were any burning residues. What was disappointing was that the burning was very clean and there was not even a piece of paper left.

"It seems that the book that hasn't been burned is the only thing left."

Han Qi agreed, "There are a few blank pages at the back of the account book, maybe it was taken outside because it wasn't filled yet."

Under the circumstances of being raided, they can still clean up the lair so clean, which shows that these people are well-trained.What is even more powerful is the man in black buried in the sarcophagus. Although the man is dead, the spirit is still passed on. After a hundred years, he can still make many people go through fire and water and give up their lives for what he originally pursued.

This Tianji Pavilion can be called the largest spiritual brainwashing center in the Song Dynasty.

After completely walking out of the gourd-shaped secret room, there is a small spacious ground with stone tables and benches in the center, and some gravel of different sizes piled up around the wall.From the surface, it looks like an unfinished excavation area, but a stone table is temporarily placed for resting.

The people who just went in were all their own people, so there was no need to deliberately hide anything.Before coming out of the secret room, Cui Tao helped Han Qi back to sit in the wheelchair at the position of the mouth of the gourd. He is now weak and poisoned, so naturally he can't walk casually.

When Cui Tao pushed Han Qi to rest at the stone table, Han Qi coughed weakly several times.She hurriedly took out another porcelain bottle, poured out a soybean-sized pill from it, and handed it to Han Qi, asking him to take the medicine.

Han Qi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he looked down at the pill in his palm, resisting the urge to question.It was the first time he saw this 'medicine'.

"The medicine is very bitter, but it will be effective if you take it slowly." Cui Tao held the water bag and looked at Han Qi eagerly.It seems to be waiting for him to finish his suffering so that he can bring him water in time.

Han Qi put the three pills into his mouth. At first, the sweet and sour hawthorn fruit fragrance spread on the tip of his tongue, then he tasted the peach flavor, and then found that there was also a plum flavor.It seems that these are just three pills that seem to have the same color, but each one has a different fruity taste.

After Han Qi frowned and finished eating, he asked Cui Tao with cold eyes: "How many are left in the bottle?"

"Nine." Cui Tao said.

Han Qi quickly lowered his eyes to hide the curiosity in his eyes.I don't know what kind of fruity flavor the remaining nine will be?

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and pass water to Guan Tui Han!" The guards outside knew that Guan Tui Han was a patient person, seeing him frowning after eating, and asking how much was left, they knew the medicine It must be extremely bitter, otherwise Han Tuiguan would never have such an expression.They felt sorry for Han Tuiguan, so they urged Ugly Tong to bring water to Han Tuiguan quickly.

Cui Tao quickly agreed and handed water to Han Qi.

After Han Qi took two sips of water, he coughed again.Seeing his lean and thin appearance, his slender hands half covered his mouth, his face was pale, and he looked particularly weak when he coughed.

Seeing that Han Tuiguan is like this, and insists on going down to investigate in person, what reason do they have for not working hard!The remnants of Tianji Pavilion must be wiped out!

Han Qi just coughed, and said to Cui Tao: "I feel better, go back and tell that doctor, you can prepare more pills."

Cui Tao glanced back at Han Qi, pursed her lips, and nodded.

"Let's go." Han Qi ordered.

"Wait!" Cui Tao suddenly stared at the direction behind Han Qi.
