Wang Yuanwai in the sedan car was thinking about what his brother-in-law said to him along the way.
He felt that it was impossible to remedy the situation. The most important thing for him now was to go outside to avoid the limelight and come back after this matter was over.
The more he thought like this, the more anxious he became. The bearer almost broke his legs because of the rush, so he was sent home again.
As soon as he got home, he kicked everyone out.
After he locked himself in the study and made sure no one was around, he carefully took out a key from his body and pressed the button in a hidden place.
The bookshelf slowly slid to both sides, and behind it was a stone door.
The key in his hand was the key to the stone door. Before opening the door, he made sure that no one was there before he dared to open the stone door and walk in.
Inside the stone gate is a secret room. Stored in the secret room is the wealth accumulated by generations of the Wang family. There are several boxes filled with gold, silver, jade, and many antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
Wang Yuanwai was sitting in the secret room, his eyes looking here and there for a while, and his heart calmed down as he looked at it.
With so many treasures, so much gold and silver, he can live the best life wherever he goes. I want him to use the money to please others, just a dream!
After sitting for a while, he walked to the innermost shelf and took out a box on top. There was a box full of banknotes in it. The other things in this secret room were accumulated by his ancestors, but these banknotes
It was accumulated by himself.
There were about tens of thousands of taels. This time he went out to avoid the limelight, so he planned to take these banknotes with him first, since they were widely used throughout the country.
But when others were about to leave, he was not too worried about the things in the secret room.
This treasury was passed down from male to female in their Wang family, and his sister didn't even know it. If he asked her to come back and help him guard it, wouldn't this treasury be exposed?
No, no, absolutely not.
Suddenly, a strange fragrance wafted up. After taking a few sips, Wang Yuanwai suddenly became alert, but it was too late. He swayed a few times and was about to fall back. His eyes could no longer be opened.
Song Chen, who was hiding in the dark, stepped forward to slow down his fall to the ground and gently placed him on the ground.
It was too loud and she was worried that it would attract other people.
After getting rid of Wang Yuanwai, Song Chen set her sights on the treasury. She didn't expect that Wang Yuanwai's family was so rich.
She was originally thinking about how she could teach the king a lesson, but she didn't expect him to send him up in such a hurry.
According to his behavior, the items in this vault must not have been obtained legitimately, so she would be considered a thief!
There was a vault full of things, and Song Chen put them all into the space in less than a cup of tea. She also fully experienced what it means, the space is in hand, and the world is mine.
Why was she looking forward to what kind of expression the king would have when he woke up?
However, Song Chen doesn't have so much time to spend here now. She uses the intoxicating drug that she has personally improved. It will be an hour before Wang Yuanwai wakes up. She still needs to use this hour.
It’s time to become a money-spreading boy.
After confirming that he had not missed anything, Song Chen quietly left Wang Yuan's wife's house.
I have to say that she was able to come and go so freely. In addition to the help of the space, she really had to thank herself for driving away everyone around her.
Otherwise she would have to waste some time.
After leaving Wang Yuan's wife's house, Song Chen went straight to the poorest street in the town, went from house to house and threw some money in the yard.
When these people came out the next day, they looked at the money in their yards and couldn't get over it for a long time.
Is this money falling from the sky?
The amount of silver given by Song Chen was about the same. A piece of silver ingot worth ten taels per family was enough for an ordinary family to eat and drink for two years.
She didn't have the time to investigate which ones could give and which ones couldn't. Anyway, she gave them all. After all, there were people who really needed help who got help.
It was very generous of her to do such a good deed with other people's money.
At this moment, Wang Yuanwai's house was in chaos. An hour later, Wang Yuanwai woke up on time. Looking at the empty treasury, his blood surged and he fainted again.
It was because the servants still didn't see him coming out the next day that they took the courage to go in.
As a result, he was seen lying on the ground unconscious.
The housekeeper hurriedly gathered people to find the doctor. The situation at that time was a bit chaotic. Many servants saw the secret room in the study, but it was empty.
They are not fools. They basically know what happened when they see this scene. Some thoughtful people have already started to prepare things and run away.
This Wang Yuanwai is usually not very nice to his servants, but now that he is like this, I have no idea whether he will be paid or paid in the future.
In one morning, all the servants in Wang Yuanwai's house who could run away packed their belongings and ran away. The only ones left behind were those who had contracts of betrayal in Wang Yuanwai's hands.
It's not that they don't want to leave, it's that they don't dare to leave.
Now I don’t know what the situation is like outside Wang Yuan. If they run away and wait until they wake up and go to the Yamen with the deed of sale, they will be fugitive slaves and are wanted throughout the country. If they are found, they will end up very miserable.
They just hope that Wang Yuanwai will never wake up.
However, there were also people who were very loyal to Yuan Wang. They began to look for clues inside and outside Wang's house, and reported the case as soon as possible.
Wang Yuanwai's personal servants all knew that the Wang family had a separate treasury. Before this, no one knew where the treasury was. This time, the place where Wang Yuanwai fell to the ground happened to be the location of the treasury. The empty treasury showed those people.
All the blood was boiling.
Although there were previous incidents, something happened to the Wang family, and it was a burglary with such a heinous plot.
The county magistrate personally took the people there again.
It was also at this time that he learned that there was such a treasury in the Wang family.
Pass on male or female?
Humph! It was passed down to such a prodigal son.
"Come here, search carefully for this county, don't let go of any clues!"
Such a hidden vault must contain a lot of treasures, and these things must be recovered at any cost.
He had just heard from the doctor that his brother-in-law would most likely not wake up, and he did not have a son or a daughter. Of course, the things recovered in the end belonged to his wife, and that was not the case.
His?
If you do some political achievements and make some money, you should be able to become a Beijing official.
After explaining the people below, the county magistrate went to see Wang Yuanwai again.
The doctor has completed the diagnosis and is considering medication.
As soon as he finished writing the prescription, the county magistrate took the prescription and handed it to his people, "Go to Huichun Hall quickly to get the medicine and use the best medicine."
The man nodded and was about to run away, but the housekeeper quickly stopped him.
"Sir, this is the doctor from Yihetang."
Only then did the county magistrate remember what happened between Wang Yuanwai and Huichun Hall. Why would this useless thing offend Huichun Hall?
"Those who want to go to Yihetang quickly, don't delay."
"Yes, sir."
We're grabbing medicine here, and the people investigating over there have also returned.
But all of them had sad faces, "Sir, I didn't find any clues."
"How is that possible!" The county magistrate slapped the table, "That is a vault. Let's not say how many things are in it for now. Even if a box is lifted out, there must be some clues left. How is it possible that there are no clues at all?
No, what on earth do you do for food!"
The people below were filled with grievances when he scolded them. It was not that they were searching in vain. They all knew that this was the home of the lord's brother-in-law, so they were extra attentive when doing things. However, they really searched Wang's house inside and outside.
I searched all over, but found no clues.
In addition, when the accident just happened, some servants from the Wang family ran away. When they left, they took away everything they could, which also damaged the scene to a certain extent.
"Sir, we have really searched all over and can't find any clues. It feels like everything in the vault has disappeared out of thin air."
Disappeared into thin air······
When the Wang family's housekeeper heard this, he looked thoughtful.
After a while, he spoke, "Your Excellency, Magistrate, I also feel that these things disappear very strangely."
This housekeeper has been with the Wang family for many years. He is an old man of the Wang family and the most trusted person by his brother-in-law. When he heard what he said, the county magistrate had to pay attention.
"why would you say so?"
The housekeeper thought carefully before speaking, "Last night, the master asked us all to go back and rest, and no one was allowed to go near the study. This kind of thing happened in the past, and everyone didn't care. It's just that we had already had breakfast this morning.
It's almost time, but the master hasn't gone out yet, so I feel strange."
"After I knocked on the door several times, there was no reply from the master, so I pushed the door open and took a look. The master fell to the ground and was unconscious. I knew that my master had always been in good health, so I was cautious at that time and asked him to
When I asked the doctor, I looked around and there was nothing suspicious in the study."
He also felt very strange at that time, but at that time his thoughts were all on Wang Yuanwai. Now that he thought about it carefully, he felt a chill on his back.
"Sir, do you think our master has offended someone and been retaliated against, or is there a thief who has been targeting our master for a long time?"
The county magistrate had a sullen face and said nothing.
The offended person is indeed someone who cannot be offended, but the possibility of retaliation is low.
It is easy for them to deal with a small country squire, and they don't even bother to do such a thing.
As his brother-in-law, the most important thing is his style. It is very likely that he has been targeted for a long time.
"I will send people to continue to investigate this matter. There is a high probability that he is being targeted by thieves. Now you should put all your thoughts on your master and find the best doctor to diagnose and treat him. If you have any questions, come to me at any time.
"
He just couldn't look down on his brother-in-law anymore. At this time, he still had to do absolutely nothing less, otherwise he would end up with a reputation of adding insult to injury, which would be detrimental to his future.
