Chapter 180
"Golden pagodas? There really are golden pagodas? Are there nine golden pagodas as tall as the rumors say?" Lin Shuran widened her eyes in surprise. She had heard Honggu mention that the Ren family's nine golden pagodas were just rumors. , no one has seen it with their own eyes.

Seeing Lin Shuran's surprised face, Xu Junze thought it was cute, and a smile appeared on his face, he pulled her to sit beside the bed, and said, "Ren Yong said that the Ren family really has nine golden pagodas, but it's not as exaggerated as rumored. It's about three feet high, but after the Ren family accident, the nine golden pagodas disappeared."

"It's gone?" Lin Shuran also frowned. The nine golden pagodas are quite a lot of wealth. Anyone who sees them will be tempted. Could it be that someone really hid these golden pagodas?
Xu Junze's next words confirmed Lin Shuran's guess. He told Lin Shuran that Ren Yong went all the way to track down the truth about the murder of Ren's family, and found out that someone deliberately lured Ren Yong's second uncle to smuggle goods into Xia Guo, but Ren Yong's second uncle always thought that the smuggling They were just jade, silk and porcelain, but it was iron. Smuggling iron was a serious crime in the Jin Dynasty, so once the matter was found out, no one would be able to protect Ren's family.

And when the Ren family was ransacked and beheaded, the nine three-foot-high golden pagodas of the head of the Ren family also disappeared. I looked at the place where the Ren family put the golden pagoda, and the golden pagoda was removed. It took him several years to finally find out that someone set up a scheme to harm the Ren family, and the purpose was most likely for the nine golden pagodas of the Ren family. .

"I remember that Prince Ling, Prince Qing, Prime Minister Chen, and Fang Lao Yushi were investigating the case of the Ren family together. Could it be one or a few of them who hid the nine golden pagodas?" At this time, it is not sure who is the suspect who stole the golden tower!
"I believe in the character of the old censor Fang, and I only recently found out that he was the one who managed to save Brother Han's life before I arrived. If he was the one who stole the golden pagoda, he should have thought about killing the roots. It's not about drawing fire." Xu Junze's eyes revealed a distant light.

When he arrived at the Ren family back then, the entire family had been ransacked and beheaded. He also heard that there was another young master fleeing from the Ren family under the protection of his servants, so he rushed to rescue him. Unexpectedly, it was a step too late. The servant had fallen off the cliff and died with his face completely destroyed. The officers and soldiers carried the body back, but soon he found that it was not the young master of the Ren family who died, but someone replaced the young master of the Ren family with the body of a child who had just died. After saving his life, Xu Junze brought Xu Minghan back to the residence.

The Fang family is now under the care of the Dragon Armor Guard. He and the old censor Fang met alone. It was not until today that the old censor Fang told the truth. It turned out that he was the one who replaced the young master of the Ren family with the corpse. He hoped that Xu Junze could Find out the truth about the golden pagoda of the Ren family back then, and save the Fang family and the Xu family.

"According to what you said, the Ren family was wrongly framed back then. As long as this case is cleared up and the Ren family is cleared, Brother Han will not be a remnant of the Ren family." Lin Shuran was delighted when she heard that Smuggling jade, porcelain, and silk in the Jin Dynasty was different from smuggling iron and salt, and would not lead to death.

"It's hard to say anything at the moment. Ren Yong said that a lot of evidence has been destroyed, and this matter has passed for many years. It will be very difficult to reverse the case. Besides, we still don't know who is behind the case. In whose hands are those golden pagodas now!" Xu Junze's eyes gradually became serious, the Ren family's golden pagoda case back then was far more than that simple, and people from the Jianghu were probably involved in it. The Golden Pagoda case of the Ren family declined and disappeared.

"How much did Xiao Chen find out about the things you mentioned?" The more Lin Shuran knew, the more she wanted to get to the bottom of this case as soon as possible.

Xu Junze knew that Lin Shuran was very concerned about this case because of Xu Minghan's relationship, and that's why he chose to tell her. In his eyes, Lin Shuran was different from ordinary backyard women. She was farsighted and calm and wise. The more she knew the truth, the more she became Can better deal with emergencies.

At the same time, Lin Shuran was also very moved that Xu Junze trusted her so much, and was willing to tell her what she knew. She felt that this should be the case between husband and wife. If there are things that should be known to the other party, they must be said.

When Xu Junze heard her mention Xiao Chen, strangeness flashed in his eyes, he stared at her and asked, "You want to ask how much Xiao Chen knows?"

Lin Shuran subconsciously nodded her head, she didn't think there was anything wrong with what she asked. Xiao Chen is the Minister of Criminal Justice, and now he is in charge of this case. Xu Junze is an official in the same dynasty as him, and they are both close ministers of the emperor. The progress of the case must be better than he knows Be clearer.

"I don't know!" Xu Junze's attitude became obviously colder, and Lin Shuran also noticed that his complexion had also changed, and he looked a little dissatisfied. Did something I say offend him?Didn't he just mention Xiao Chen?Could it be that he still minded Xiao Chen's existence?

Lin Shuran secretly pursed her lips and smiled, realizing that the man in front of him might be jealous, and deliberately teased him: "Brother Xiao is the official who presides over this case, and the things we said must be very helpful for him to investigate the case, why not me?" Think of a way to disclose these things to him, so that he can quickly find out the truth, so that the Ren family and the Fang family can be cleared."

"Brother Xiao?!" Xu Junze stared at Lin Shuran dangerously, seeing her smile on her brows, made her even angrier. When mentioning Xiao Chen, does she have to be so close and happy?In the next second, he directly pulled her onto the bed, turned over and pressed her firmly under him.

The sudden powerful masculine breath rushed towards her, which made Lin Shuran startled. She quickly covered her chest with her hands and looked at Xu Junze and said nervously, "What are you going to do?!" Then she swallowed, Xu Junze's eyes widened at this time. As if he was about to eat her, Guang immediately begged for mercy with a flattering expression on his face, "I——I was just kidding you, I'm sorry, I was wrong, it's not the brother of the Xiao family, it's Lord Xiao, and it's Lord Minister of the Ministry of Punishment!"

When a man is jealous, don't provoke him. If you can bend and stretch, you won't suffer a big loss. Lin Shuran knows this very well, especially when you are facing a man who is not sure about his temper. But after thinking about it, if you are here It's not impossible for her to misfire under such circumstances, but she didn't want Xu Junze to be with her with even the slightest misunderstanding.

So when Xu Junze's cold and handsome face with unclear emotions was about to get closer to her, she looked him in the eyes seriously and explained frankly: "Xiao Chen and I are just old friends, I don't have the slightest affection for him Love between men and women."

"What about Gu Jingcheng?" What Xu Junze cared about was not only Xiao Chen, who had never forgotten Lin Shuran, but also Lin Shuran's old love, Gu Jingcheng.
