Chapter 2 Zhangfu Treasure House

Chu Ge said in a soft voice: "Everyone, get up. I believe you also know where this place is and how to choose. You can think about it yourself. Once you have considered it, come into the room and pick an instrument that you are good at."

After saying that, he walked to the main room by himself.

The poor women kneeling on the ground had struggling eyes.

None of them want to die.

If he really wanted to die, he would have committed suicide before being captured. How could he have come here and humiliated his reputation?

But as the family members of former officials, some of them were even noble ladies, and now they have to live in poverty, which makes them extremely afraid.

Suddenly, one of Zhang Xian's concubines rushed to Chu Ge who was walking towards the house, knelt down and cried:

"Sir, can you think of a way to let me go? I have private possessions outside. As long as you let me go, I will dedicate them all to you."

Seeing this, the other two concubines also responded.

He said that as long as Chu Ge could let them go, they would hand over the private wealth they had hidden.

Although Chu Ge was a little tempted, after all, if he practiced martial arts in the future, he would definitely need a lot of money.

But for the female prisoners who were released privately in the prison department, this crime would cost them their heads.

Between life and money, Chu Ge still knows which is more important.

If you don’t have money, the worst thing you can do is save it slowly. Anyway, you will live a long life.

Not to mention that the money in this Jiaofang Division is extremely rich, and he will not take risks for a little yellow and white stuff.

Chu Ge said: "You are assigned to this place by the Holy Spirit personally. Chu is just a minor official. I really can't help you."

After saying that, he passed the other girls and walked into the house.

After Chu Ge walked into the house, Yang, who was kneeling on the ground without saying a word, suddenly turned around and said a few words of care to her daughter, then got up and walked into the house first.

After entering the house, Yang turned around and closed the door.

When Chu Ge saw the beautiful woman who suddenly closed the door, his heart skipped a beat.

Could this woman...

So should you obey or not?

The temptation is a bit big, why challenge my weakness!

But after Yang closed the door, there was no sexy scene of undressing and undressing as Chu Ge had imagined. Instead, he quickly walked a few steps and knelt down in front of Chu Ge.

Chu Ge, who was a little disappointed in his heart, secretly complained:

"The number of times I was kneeled on my knees in my previous life was not as many as today."

Chu Ge said: "What do you mean? I just said that I can't save you."

Yang shook her head and said: "My lord, I'm not here to beg you to let us out. I can see that you are different from the others here. I am willing to hand over the location of a secret treasure house in the Zhang Mansion in exchange for my daughter.

If Yue Jian can avoid being bullied at will here, I hope you can think of a way."

"treasure house?"

Chu Ge was somewhat interested in the treasure house.

As Zhang Xian is a third-grade official, and he is so greedy, his treasure house must be rich, and he may even get some unexpected gains.

Moreover, the other party is not asking me to save others. If he just doesn't want to be bullied at will, then he is not helpless, and there is no risk to him.

Chu Ge muttered: "Let me think about it first."

Seeing that Chu Ge was interested, Yang's face showed a hint of joy and he quickly continued:

"Don't worry, sir. Only my husband and I know about that treasure house. The Ministry of Punishment and the Procuratorate will definitely not find it and it will not cause trouble to you."

Chu Ge recalled what happened in his original memory about the Zhang Xian case.

After all, it is a case involving a third-rank official. Most officials in Kyoto have heard about it. Moreover, Chu Ge is still in the well-informed place of Jiaofangsi, so naturally he knows more than ordinary people.

Zhang Xian is the minister of the Ministry of Industry and originally belonged to the lineage of Right Prime Minister Lin Ruofu. This time, he was caught by the Procuratorate.

In order not to affect himself, Prime Minister Lin directly abandoned Zhang Xian and even stabbed him in the back.

It was said to be a corruption case, but it was actually a confrontation between Prime Minister Lin's clique and the Procuratorate's clique. However, this time Prime Minister Lin obviously suffered a big loss and lost a high-ranking official in the capital.

Since this string is already an abandoned piece, I'm not afraid of getting involved in anything else.

What's more...

Chu Ge glanced at Yang who was kneeling on the ground.

This Yang family only said that she wanted to protect her daughter, but said nothing about herself. Judging from her expression, she must have had the will to die. She did not commit suicide before but held on here. It seemed that she could do something for her daughter in the end.

thing.

Such a dying person who entrusts an orphan to his care will not deliberately deceive himself.

That would only destroy her daughter's only hope.

It's just that whether that yard has been inspected by the Inspection Service, you have to go there and check it out first.

Chu Ge said: "First give me the location of the yard. After I investigate, if it is true as you said, I will ensure that your daughter is fine."

"Thank you, sir!"

Yang kowtowed and thanked him.

Later, Chu Ge was informed of the location of the courtyard in detail.

As for whether Chu Ge would refuse to admit his debt after taking the things, Yang had no choice. After all, she and others were already prisoners, so she could only take a gamble in the end.

Success is good, but if you fail, you can only...

For the next half day, the women seemed to accept their fate.

I went into the house and picked out a musical instrument.

Women from wealthy families are involved in instrumental music, song and dance, and have a solid foundation, so teaching will naturally be easier and more likely to produce results.

This is also one aspect where women from Jiaofangsi are better than ordinary women from Goulan.

When it was Yang's daughter Zhang Yuejian's turn, Zhang Yuejian chose a Guqin piece.

Zhang Yuejian glanced at her mother with tears in her eyes, and Yang nodded to her daughter.

Then Zhang Yue saw both hands playing the piano, pressing lightly with his left hand and plucking slightly with his right hand, and a moving melody floated out.

The sound of the piano is delicate and subtle, and the fingering calmly controls the lightness, urgency, and brisk rhythm, with a lingering reciprocation, and a kind of chant that goes deep into the heart.

A look of surprise appeared on Chu Ge's face.

I didn't expect that this little beauty could play the piano so well. She seemed to be very talented in instrumental music. She seemed more confident in agreeing to Yang's promise.

In the next half day.

Chu Ge asked them to practice musical instruments here, and meals would be delivered by special servants.

He left the courtyard and walked along the alley to the outside of the Jiaofang Office.

Fearing that something might change if it was too late, Chu Ge decided to go to the courtyard that Yang mentioned now to have a look.

After exiting the alley of Jiaofangsi, there is a four-archway.

The several alleys around the archway are called Fenzi Alley, Girl Alley, Yanle Alley, and Bensi Alley.

Among them, the main alley is Jiaofangsi, and the other alleys are also called Goulan alleys. This large area is the red light district of the capital.

However, it is still daytime, so it seems a bit deserted. At night, this place is really open for business.

Chu Ge left the alley, returned to the small courtyard he bought, and changed into casual clothes.

Then he hired a carriage and headed to the west city that Yang mentioned.

The capital of the Dali Dynasty occupies a huge area, and it took Chu Ge more than an hour to arrive near his destination.

Get off the carriage.

Chu Ge quickly looked around, and then walked towards a restaurant where he could see the courtyard that Yang mentioned.

Arriving at the window seat on the second floor of the restaurant, Chu Ge ordered a pot of tea and a few dishes of side dishes, while pretending to be casually looking at the small courtyard not far away while eating.

In the next few days, Chu Ge would come to this restaurant every day and sit there for most of the day.

After several days of observation, Chu Ge was basically sure that there was nothing abnormal here.

Also, if an abandoned son's private house was found, it would have been confiscated long ago, and it has no value for fishing.

Or maybe I was too careful.

However, be careful and sail the ship of ten thousand years, it will only take more time. The most important thing I don't lack now is time.
