(Sorry, this chapter should be Chapter 512, but VIP chapters are not allowed to modify the title, so I can only explain it here.)
"It's the official, it's the official." The servants didn't dare to hide it. They pointed at the corpses and identified them one by one. In order to survive, everyone scrambled to identify the corpses. Although everyone was afraid of the dead, they were even more afraid of the dead.
Afraid of death, rather than being killed, betraying the master's family is nothing at this time. Moreover, they are just servants, and many of them were bought and sold and robbed into the house. How could they do anything to Liyang?
What kind of loyalty can there be in the Hou Mansion?
The bodies of all the 234 people in Liyanghou's residence, including Liyanghou's concubines and concubines, are here.
"Why is it different from what the government recorded?" Guan Xiang asked, holding the roster. "The government only recorded 128 people, but now there are 234. Counting you, there are 244 people.
.”
"Going back to my lord, the butler was afraid of being overly polite, so he deliberately underpaid me." said a young manservant.
Guan Xiang asked again: "Do you know what kind of shops Liyang Marquis has in the city and where they are located?"
"I know a few places and can take you there." The manservant said hurriedly.
Guan Xiang stared at the boy and asked, "How much do you know?"
"Eighteen places."
Guan Xiang laughed: "Okay, come here, let him take you to count the eighteen shops in the Liyang Marquis Mansion, and pick the smallest one to reward this child."
"Ah?" The male servant just wanted to survive, but he didn't expect to be rewarded with a shop. He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "I don't dare, sir, I don't dare, I don't dare."
Guan Xiang said: "You can keep it, it's just the smallest of the eighteen places. Whoever serves our ghost guards will be rewarded. You have to know that our ghost guards have clear rewards and punishments."
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir, thank you, sir." The male servant knelt on the ground and kowtowed in thanks. In the blink of an eye, he transformed from a small servant to a high official.
A little maid next to him suddenly picked it out and said, "Master Guan, Master Guan, I know a treasure house."
"Treasure house?" Guan Xiang asked, "What treasure house? Warehouse? We have sealed it, and there is nothing else in it except some silver and grain. Why is the Liyang Hou family so poor? I thought there was only thirty thousand taels.
Is all the money stored in the bank?"
The little maid hurriedly shook her head and said: "Master, it's not a warehouse, not the warehouse of Liyang Marquis Mansion. The precious things in the Marquis Mansion are hidden in the Marquis's secret treasure house, which is unknown to outsiders. Last time, the maid accidentally heard that the Crown Prince
I mentioned it when I was drunk, but he only mentioned it once and then stopped talking about it."
"Where?"
"It seems to be in the master's bedroom, but I don't know where it is."
"Take us there."
Guan Xiang had long suspected that Liyanghou's house could not only have thirty thousand taels of silver and twenty thousand kilograms of rice and noodles. Now that he heard that there was a treasure trove, he immediately led his men to search in Liyanghou's bedroom. They were not thieves, nor
They were not robbers, but they were raiding homes and checking assets in an open and honest manner, so they didn't care about secret passages and secret doors. They just used big hammers to demolish houses and dig out walls.
"Boom!"
"Bang!"
"boom!"
The violent and unreasonable treasure hunt soon yielded the simplest and most effective result. There was a secret wall hidden behind the bookshelf. Opening the secret wall revealed a secret passage. Jas also led the team to hunt for treasure in the underground treasure house. Guan Xiang
Let the little maid walk in the front, and the others follow behind her.
The little maid was so frightened that she walked tremblingly for a while and came to a door. Seeing that the door was locked, she turned around helplessly to look at Jasper.
Jas also took his hammer and banged it three times, but the door fell down.
"This is the secret room. I don't know how much money there is." Jia Si also said with a smile. He walked in first, and then he suddenly discovered that there were bags of fine noodles hidden in the secret room, and there were bags of fine noodles hidden under the surrounding bluestone walls.
They are several jars with lime on the door.
"Be careful of flames lighting this place, use lanterns to illuminate it." Jas also ordered, and everyone quickly switched to using lanterns for lighting. Although it was darker than the flames, fortunately there were no enemies here.
Bag after bag of fine flour, which is much more valuable than rice, can be called the top fine grain. The lime piled in the corner also has another use. It is used as a desiccant to absorb water. Even Jas found that underground
It is paved with a layer of wooden boards, and there is also a lime bedding under the wooden boards. The underground treasure house is fully protected from moisture, theft, and fire. If you count it carefully, there are actually two thousand kilograms of fine noodles.
"That's it?" Jas couldn't laugh or cry, scratching his head and saying depressedly: "Save the grain. Marquis Liyang is so afraid of starving to death. This is not a treasure house. Whose treasure house has grain hidden in it?"
"Maybe the gold and silver are hidden inside?" the subordinate suggested.
Some people searched in the fine flour, but found nothing. The fine noodles were indeed just fine noodles. Some people even searched in the lime jar, but were very disappointed to find that there was only lime in the lime cylinder and no treasure.
"Damn it!" Jas also pulled his hair frantically and said angrily: "Is Marquis Liyang sick? Is he sick? Is he reincarnated as a starving ghost? The treasure house only contains food?
Is he crazy?"
"Guan—Mr. Guan, it seems different here." The little maid pointed tremblingly at the bluestone beside the door frame and said, "It seems to be quite clean here. I touch it often."
Jas also immediately walked over and took a closer look. As expected, this bluestone slab was different. It was a little different from the surrounding bluestone slabs, so he picked up the hammer and smashed it hard. After a crunching sound, a revolving door made of bluestone was closed.
Jas was also smashed alive, and at the same time a dark second secret room was revealed.
"It's done!" Everyone was delighted.
Jia Si also laughed loudly, put his hands on his waist and said: "What do I mean, it can't be that simple. This Liyang Marquis is too cunning. If I just pushed or pried open the wooden door, then after the wooden door was pushed open,
It will naturally block the position of this stone door, so we cannot find this real secret room. Little girl, you have made great contributions. I will inform Mr. Guan of your achievements in a while. He has always been very generous and will reward you.
Your gold and silver.”
The little maid hurriedly said: "Thank you sir, thank you sir."
"Let's go in and look at the jewelry." Jas also laughed, and then a few soldiers walked in, and then looked at the second secret room with dumbfounded eyes - they were all filled with pots and jars, and there was a thick smell of oil floating in the room.
Taste.
"This is -" Jas also opened a jar and immediately discovered that the jar was actually rapeseed oil, a whole jar of rapeseed oil. He was confused and couldn't figure out why there was rapeseed oil here.
Are there gold and silver treasures inside? So
He put his hand in and took it out - there was nothing inside, but his clothes and armor were all filled with rapeseed oil. The oil was greasy on his body, hung on his face and even penetrated his nose.
