The Empress Dowager

Chapter 459 Discovery
Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows looking at the gold, silver and jewels. Maybe even Jiang didn't know that Nangong Jian had a secret room in the study, right?
Nangong Yuesu raised her hands lightly, playing with those gold, silver and jewels, they were all relatively rare objects!
Nangongjian earns a salary of 600 taels a year. Nangongjian will not be able to earn these few boxes of jewelry in his life.

Just as Nangong Yue was about to withdraw her hand, she saw a paper booklet exposed among the jewels. Nangong Yue took the booklet and opened it, and what caught her eyes was Song Mingyuan, a first-rank loyal military general who was sent by Mingxuan in May 28. : One thousand taels of gold, 500 taels of silver, a pair of mutton fat jade bracelets, a set of five-color glazed cups, a pure gold suanni incense burner...

Song Mingyuan, a first-rank loyal military general, was sent to...

Song Mingyuan, a first-rank loyal military general, sent it to Mingxuan in July 29th...

……

Nangong Yue flipped through the pamphlet, Song Mingyuan sent so many things to Nangongjian, presumably Song Mingyuan and Nangongjian had reached a consensus, or Song Mingyuan and Nangongjian colluded and did some shameful things.

Nangong Yue closed the booklet and handed it to Murong Yu: "This is the booklet that Song Mingyuan gave to my father as a gift, take a look."

Murong Yu took the booklet in Nangong Yue's hand, opened the booklet and looked at it, frowning slightly, but said nothing.

After reading for a while, Murong Yu closed the booklet and put it away.

"Let's see if we can find any more useful things." Murong Yu said softly.

Nangong Yue nodded, said "yes" and started looking again.

Nangong Yue searched through other jewelry boxes, but found nothing other than jewelry.

There is also a bookshelf in the dark room, and there are several wooden boxes on the bookshelf. Nangong Yue walked slowly to the side of the bookshelf, took the wooden box, opened it, and found a small night pearl inside, and Finding nothing else, Nangong Yue closed the box and put it back to its original place.

At this moment, Murong Yu also came over, took the wooden box that Nangong Yue had seen before with his slender hands, opened the box, took out the Ye Mingzhu inside and put it on the bookshelf, opened the box, and opened it from the inside of the box. Taking out a folded paper from the interlayer, Murong Yu flattened the folded paper, scanned it with his eyes, and frowned involuntarily.

Nangong Yue put the luminous pearl in the wooden box, and seeing Murong Yu's complexion looked a little ugly, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"This is the evidence of Song Mingyuan's corruption with the Minister of the Household Department and the Jiedu Envoy." Murong Yu said softly.

Nangong Yue was startled, how could such important evidence be in the hands of Nangong Jian?Is it because of this that Song Mingyuan frequently gave gifts to Nangongjian?

If this is the case, Nangong Jian's death is probably related to Song Mingyuan.

Nangong Yue opened the other wooden boxes and checked them again, but there was nothing inside.

"It's getting late, let's go back!" Murong Yu's clear voice came, Nangong Yue paused, and said, "They...gone?"

Murong Yu gave a "hmm", and Bai Yu walked to the side of the stone gate with his hand, turned around the decorative vase next to the stone gate, and the stone gate opened.

Nangong Yue walked out following Murong Yu, and then the stone door was slowly closed.

Murong Yuan and Nangong Lin were no longer in the study, Nangong Yue breathed a sigh of relief and stepped out of the study.

Back in Linglong Courtyard, Nangong Yue took off her nocturnal clothes and only wore an undershirt. Her long hair hung down to her waist, and her pretty face was so beautiful that it was unforgettable at first sight!
Nangong Yue poured a cup of tea and handed it to Murong Yu. Murong Yu took the tea and drank it slowly.
