Chapter 6: Chapter Two Crying in the Red Silk Garden (3)
Liu Feng rolled his eyes and ordered in a low voice: "There must be another person in the tree opposite. Leave two people to stare at them from a distance. Don't scare the snake. Liang Gong Xu Song, you guys come with me to see inside. What happened in the middle of the night?"
There must be some hidden secret in this matter."
Two of the guards nodded and immediately ducked away into the distance.
Liu Feng made a gesture and walked lightly into the depths of Hongling Garden. After a while, he came to the outside of an attic. Through the window paper, he could faintly see the light of fire and the sound of people in the attic, but he didn't know what he was doing.
"Let's go over and listen to what is said," Liu Feng lowered his voice, and several people came close to the window and listened quietly.[
"...Where did this old thief Wang Fu hide his things? We almost dug this place over and over, and we only had to dig three feet into the garden. Mr. Chen, did you remember it wrong?"
"How could it be? When we raided Wang Fu's house, our family was a supervisor. Wang Lao Wang was so powerful at that time. There were countless properties dedicated to him every year both inside and outside the palace. But what could be confiscated from his garden?
The property was less than two thousand gold, so our family was a little suspicious at the time. Finally, we called his godson and tortured him for questioning. Only then did we find out that the old thief Wang came to Hongling Garden every once in a while. Think about it, he came to Hongling Garden for nothing.
what."
"Oh! But it's been more than half a year. There are a lot of those things. Where can he hide them? Has Mr. Chen been here before?"
There was a brief silence in the pavilion, and then a slightly angry voice was heard: "Is it possible that Mr. Rang still can't trust our family? When all the princes jointly protected our family, this life-saving grace was as great as heaven, how could our family deceive you?
male?"
"If the emperor can reward the Red Silk Garden, things will be easy to handle. We don't need to come here in the middle of the night. We can search by moonlight every full moon night."
"This is not easy to handle. Everyone in the Haunted Palace of Hongling Garden knows that our family suddenly asking for such a garden from the emperor will easily arouse suspicion, and many people will definitely be watching."
Liu Feng, who was hiding outside the window, frowned and slowly heard that the people inside were actually Shi Changshi, and that several people came here to find the furniture left by Wang Fu, the eunuch of Quan during the reign of Emperor Heng. When he heard this
, some of Liu Feng’s previous questions were easily solved.
The first is Wang Fu. As the saying goes, one emperor has one courtier. After the death of Emperor Heng, Emperor Ling succeeded him. This eunuch knew that he could not escape death because of his sins, so he hid his finances in the Red Silk Garden in advance. At the same time, it was also reported that
After Wang Fu was killed, Feng Xu was responsible for searching Wang Fu’s belongings. After being tortured, he learned that Wang Fu had hidden most of his belongings in the Red Silk Garden.
In order not to be discovered, Feng Xu continued to let people pretend to be ghosts and scare people here on full-moon nights, while he took the opportunity to search for the treasure.
When the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, the list of internal officials in the imperial court was sent to He Jin by Tang Zhou. In order to survive, Feng Xu told the Shi Changshi about this secret, and on this condition he could save his life.
The arrangement of the Ten Constant Attendants is not unreasonable. In the minds of a few people, when everyone hears the cry of the ghost, they will dodge as far away as possible. Even if someone is brave enough to come to find out, they will see the female ghost at the moment.
He fled in a panic, but Liu Feng was an exception. Not only did he not have the deep-rooted ghost and god thoughts of this era, although he was afraid of ghosts and gods, it was not the kind that penetrated deep into his soul. He was still rational despite being frightened, and could quickly analyze the situation before him.
