Nongmen Fu girl group’s daily favorites

Chapter 331 Secret Room
This house was where Jiang Shoufu lived when he first got married. Xiao Yichen once sent secret guards to investigate and found that the entire house was decorated with formations.

Later, Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen asked about the hidden clues they had planted in the Jiang Mansion. They knew very little about the house, which showed that Jiang Shoufu attached great importance to the house.

Another point is that Ling Yunsu discovered that when the Japanese prince came out of the house, his eyes were tied with cloth strips, which meant that the Tatar prince and the Japanese prince had their eyes covered when they walked through the secret passage.

Therefore, Shen Jia and Xiao Yichen decided to enter the secret passage from the front house, and then enter this house through the secret passage.

The two skillfully fumbled around in the study, and the door of the study opened quickly. Outside was a courtyard. Under the dim moonlight, the courtyard was peaceful and quiet. Shen Jia could clearly see the formations arranged in the courtyard.

It seems that this study must have a secret.

The two of them checked it carefully again.

Shen Jia examined the small pond by the window. The length and width of this small pond were about one and a half meters. The most conspicuous thing about the pond was the large stone in the middle, which was one foot wide and one meter high. There were several small stones around the big stone. It is covered with cobblestones. In a foot of water, several koi carps were swimming around.

Xiao Yichen saw Shen Jia standing beside the pool in a daze, so he came over and asked, "Jia Jia, did you find any problem?"

Shen Jia took Xiao Yichen's hand, pointed at the pool and asked: "Achen, if you ignore the big stone in the middle, do you think it looks like the Yin-Yang fish in the Bagua diagram?"

Shen Jia only knew a little bit about Bagua Tu, and Xiao Yichen was taught by Shen Jia, so he shook his head helplessly: "I can't understand."

Shen Jia slapped his forehead fiercely, dumbfounded: "I was also anxious, and I forgot that I taught you all the Qimen formations you know."

Shen Jia's skin could be broken by a blow, and with just one tap, there was a crimson mark on her forehead.

Xiao Yichen suddenly felt distressed. He lowered his head and blew on her forehead gently, and said angrily: "Next time, don't pat your own forehead. If you want to pat me, pat mine. I have rough skin and thick flesh. I can pat her as you please." No matter what, it’s okay.”

Shen Jia Ni glanced at him and said with a smile: "I'm not a porcelain doll, how can I be so delicate."

"That won't work. I will feel guilty, blame myself, and feel distressed." Xiao Yichen insisted on his opinion in front of Shen Jia for the first time.

"All right!"

When Xiao Yichen saw that she agreed, he stopped talking so as not to affect Shen Jia's thinking.

A quarter of an hour later.

Shen Jia pointed to two of the stones and said, "Ah Chen, wait a minute and let us turn these two stones at the same time."

After Shen Jia finished speaking, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her fair and shiny arms.

Xiao Yichen's eyes darkened, and he also walked to the other side of the pool, rolling up his sleeves and getting ready.

"One, two, three, start."

They both reached into the pool and turned the stone at the same time.

"Click" The wall with the guqin hanging on it opened from the middle, revealing a door only one meter high. At the same time, several sharp arrows flew out from inside, and the two of them flew up to avoid the sharp arrows.

Xiao Yichen threw a few things in to test it out. After seeing that there was no movement, he and Shen Jia walked in.

This is a small house, only about three square meters. There are seven wooden boxes on the ground, and the boxes are all locked with copper locks.

Shen Jia took the hairpin and opened the copper locks of all the boxes one by one. Xiao Yichen opened one of the boxes, and a few embroidery needles flew out of the box and flew towards Xiao Yichen's face. He pinched the embroidery needles with quick eyes and quick hands, feeling terrified in his heart.

Shen Jia was also startled. If he looked carefully, the embroidery needles were all black. It was obvious that these embroidery needles were soaked in poison.

Even though Shen Jia didn't like to use foul language, she couldn't help but scold her. Jiang Shoufu had too many evil intentions.

The two carefully opened the other boxes. No surprise, the other boxes also contained poisonous embroidery needles.

"Jiang Shoufu is really more thoughtful than a sieve. If the two of us weren't highly skilled in martial arts, invulnerable to all poisons, and highly vigilant, we would have been told here long ago." Shen Jia couldn't help complaining.

"It also proves that what's here is important."

Shen Jia nodded, "Let's hurry up and check what's wrong here and take back everything we can."

The two of them split up, and Shen Jia first rummaged through one of the boxes.

There were ten account books similar to notepads in this box. Each one had a name written on it. Shen Jia took a rough look at it and found that it clearly recorded someone's corruption and bribery on a certain day of a certain year and a certain month. , or disregarding human life, eating corpses, dereliction of duty, etc. These crimes are enough for them to be dismissed from their posts and investigated.

These ten people included officials from six ministries, magistrates who were sent to other places, and a general who guarded the border.

She went to look through another box, which was exactly the same as the first box. It contained criminal evidence of certain people.

Shen Jia frowned in thought, these people had been manipulated by Jiang Shoufu and had already willingly surrendered to King Jin. Xiao Yichen was already on guard against them and obviously had nothing to fear.

She went to look at the third box. This box was only half the size of the previous two boxes. The items inside were wrapped in black silk. From the visual inspection, they should be account books and the like. It also gave off a unique smell.

A glint flashed across Shen Jia's eyes. These silk fabrics were poisonous, the kind of poison that could cause the entire body to fester and die if it came into contact with the skin.

She picked up the object and opened the silk package. What appeared in front of Shen Jia was an unusual notepad.

On the other side, the first box Xiao Yichen checked contained some orphaned copies, each of which was worth thousands of gold. Even the royal library contained manuscripts of these orphaned copies.

The second box is full of famous paintings. There are even two authentic paintings by the painting saint from five hundred years ago, and three paintings by the great painters of the previous dynasty. However, there are only two authentic paintings by the painting saint in the entire royal family.

Xiao Yichen's eyes darkened, Jiang Shoufu was really hiding his secrets.

The third box was smaller, with some insignificant account books on it. Xiao Yichen took them out one by one, flipping to the bottom and saw an object wrapped in red silk, which looked like a notebook.

Xiao Yichen was excited, and his whole body was instantly refreshed. After working all night, he was finally going to gain something.

He slowly opened the silk cloth, and there was really a notebook inside. In the corner of the front page were written the words "Yangzhou Slim Horse".

He couldn't wait to flip through it, and suddenly the name of the former Zhongzhou Governor's wife was on the first page. It recorded her story, when she was taken in, when she was assigned to the former Zhongzhou Governor, what her mission was, etc.

The second page, the third page...

The more Xiao Yichen looked at it, the more frightened he became. Most of the officials recorded here were neutrals, and some were outgoing officials with outstanding political achievements. They were people he and Grandpa Huang were preparing to promote.

If they promoted these people to important positions, it would be equivalent to adding a lot of leverage to King Jin.

Xiao Yichen thought that what he saw was shocking enough, but he didn't expect that what was behind would shock him even more.
