Chapter 496

Sheng Xi's eyes became wider and wider as the ground collapsed deeper and deeper, and the steps also appeared. The collapse process lasted for about one minute, and the third group of people who were inspecting were about to arrive.

Sheng Xi glanced outside and looked at the collapsed land. Without much hesitation, he walked down the next moment.

This should be Gu Hongjun's private warehouse. Unlike ordinary people's thoughts, the secret room is set up behind the bookshelf and making a fuss on the ground. This design probably took a lot of effort.

The footsteps from outside were in order, and it was obvious that there was no abnormality in the room. Sheng Xi was coming down the stone stairs, turning into the secret passage and pausing for a while, and then she made sure that the guards left before continuing to move forward. At the same time, she took out the fire note from the space and blew it on.

As the fire slit becomes brighter, the outline of the secret passage gradually appears.

All white marbles are pasted!

Sheng Xi reached out and touched the wall, and couldn't help but whisper. This kind of white marble was not common in this era. I heard that the Gu family men were famous for their uprightness, so Gu Hongjun wanted to extend the elegance to the ground? Then this is also consistent with the inside and outside.

The secret passage is neither long nor short, about ten meters long. At the end of the secret passage is a stone door made of white marble. There is no mechanism designed on the stone door, and it can be opened as soon as it is pushed.

As the stone gate was pushed open, Sheng Xi handed the fire letter forward and was immediately shocked by the situation in front of him.

How many boxes are there! One, two, three... Seven, eight, nine! Tsk, there are actually nine big boxes!

Suddenly, fluorescent light lit up on the surrounding walls. Sheng Xi looked up and found that there were several beads embedded on the wall, which are what people often call night pearls.

After being illuminated by the fire slit, the Suizhu gradually shines brightly, and soon illuminates the entire inner room.

Then Sheng Xi discovered that in this not-so-large room, in addition to the nine large boxes, there were dozens of small boxes of different specifications!

Sheng Xi looked at the boxes and stayed for a few breaths before stepping into the room.

As the bead became brighter and brighter, Sheng Xi simply put out the fire and changed the gap dagger and came out. She came to one of the boxes, stretched out and pried it, and the box was bounced open without any effort. A whole box of white silver was exposed in front of Sheng Xi without warning, and the fluorescent almost blinded her eyes.

She flipped through the silver, which was all 10 taels per ingot, but it was not official silver. She lowered her head and glanced at the box, and it was estimated that it could hold about 2,000 taels of silver of this specification.

Then she opened the second box, and the same specifications were all silver. The third box and the fourth box were the same. She thought that the boxes behind should be the same as before, but unexpectedly, from the fifth box to the end of the ninth box, it was filled with yellow gold!

Gold is ten times more than silver. In the calculation, these few big boxes alone have more than 100,000 taels of silver!

Tsk! She only saved thousands of taels after working hard for so long!

Although the profits of Ying'antang will be doubled after the opening of the next few Ying'antangs, Sheng Xi still couldn't help but sigh.

Is this the foundation that some people often say? It can support a family's long-term wealth foundation.

No, no! Sheng Xi suddenly remembered that this was just Gu Hongjun's private warehouse, and it is still unknown how much wealth the Gu family is!

Sheng Xi was envious and jealous in her heart for a moment, and then began to look at the remaining small box.

Well, it was almost the same as she thought, both of which were priceless jewelry and jade, and a box of famous calligraphy and paintings.

Sheng Xi looked at the opened boxes and her expression gradually became numb, and her emotions were no longer turbulent. Until... she opened the last box.

The box was not big, it was the smallest one here, but the thing in it was filled with was that Shengxi squinted her eyes almost instantly after seeing it.

It's all kinds of poisons!

There are twenty porcelain bottles of all sizes!

She knew that some high-ranking families would hide all kinds of filial piety and poison them, which would make individuals commonplace in such families. But she didn't expect that someone could prepare twenty kinds of poisons! What do you want to do? Do you study it? Or eat it yourself?

Sheng Xi curled her lips and opened the bottles one by one to look at them. Very good, among them were the poison that was given to Leng Siyi's death-breaking life, and the Ming Ba who wanted to control her.

Sheng Xi thought these poisons should be all known poisons on the market, but unexpectedly, when she opened a green porcelain bottle, the sudden subtle smell made her move suddenly stagnate!

Red green grass!!

This medicine actually smells of red green grass!

Sheng Xi was shocked for a moment, stared at the porcelain bottle for a long time, and then suddenly capped the porcelain bottle.

The Gu family actually has poison containing red green grass. What does this mean?

Sheng Xi frowned and her lips were pursed tightly for a moment.

Although the poison needs to be verified later, she thought that her guess might come true!

"Click", the box containing the poison was closed. Sheng Xi looked down at the box. At that moment, she couldn't tell what she was feeling, she didn't see anger, but was more calm.

Her fingertips rubbed the box for a moment, and in a moment, the box disappeared in an instant. Sheng Xi turned around, stretched her arms out, stuffing all the boxes in the room into the space, and even the Suizhu on the wall was cut off.

What should I keep it for?

A harmful thing!

The city gate was closed at this time, Sheng Xi temporarily returned to his residence, just waiting for dawn to leave the city gate as soon as possible, and before that, he sent all four letters out.

Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, the Censorate, the Censorate, the Three Laws and one Censorate, she thought this should be enough for Gu Hongjun to have a drink.

While there was still time, Sheng Xi took out the glass of water that Chuntao handed her to her from the space. As expected, the water was poisonous. However, this poison could not kill her on the spot, but could make her persist for three days. After three days, she vomited blood and died.

In front of Shen Anhe? Gu Yuyao not only wanted her to be famous, but also wanted her to die, and in addition to disturbing Shen Anhe's participation in the imperial examination, completely disrupting his future life.

A few birds with one stone can be punished!

In fact, she originally wanted to send Leng Siyi away tomorrow and informed Shen Anhe about what happened today, but now she doesn't want to.

Whether Gu Yuyao did this for herself or for her other son, she decided to let Shen Anhe take the exam well, and the test will never be affected!

The candlelight swayed, but it failed to shine through Sheng Xi's excessively dark eyes. The mood of the previous life that had been suppressed was suddenly torn apart at this moment.

At the fifth o'clock in the morning, the city gate opened, and a thin and ordinary-faced boy led his horse and walked out with the flow of people. As soon as he left the city gate, he rushed into the darkness at the fastest speed.
