Chapter Twenty-Eight: Stealing Chickens Doesn't Make Rice

"Silver!" Chen Ying instantly thought of his nearly a thousand taels of silver. Now the way to make money has not yet been found, once the thousand taels of silver are lost, they really have to drink the northwest wind.

Xu Jingzong sold the house, although he did not remove the furniture in the house, but he did not leave any angry objects, and the most odious thing is that he did not leave Chen Ying with overnight food.

Chen Ying took three steps and two steps, trotted all the way back to the room to find the key, and carried the lantern to the front of the storeroom.

This storeroom is actually the original treasury of the Xu Mansion. With green brick walls, glutinous rice juice mixed with quicklime to stir cooked soil and fill joints, it has five independent large rooms, with an area of more than 300 square meters, and there is no window .......

When he came to the door, Chen Ying found that the original door lock was actually opened. Chen Ying was shocked and hurriedly pushed open the door and entered.

Chen Ying carried the lantern and pounced on the silver box containing the silver, but the lock of the silver box did not find anything abnormal, Chen Ying was still not at ease, and carefully counted the silver judgment and found that the silver was not much or less.

"That's weird!" Chen Ying said puzzledly: "This silver is not less!" ”

"Is it just a false alarm!" You Ziying said: "It may be that the thieves saw that we were alert and didn't have time to get ......."

At this moment, Chen Ying's gaze fell on the dark desktop.

This is a table that was originally used to settle accounts, Chen Ying clearly remembered that when the silver and cloth were sent in, Lan'er wiped the table clean, but at this time, there was a little floating ash on the table.

In just one day, there is no floating ash at all, and it is even more impossible to only appear such a palm-sized floating ash.

You Ziying suddenly looked at the beam above the table.

Chen Ying took a closer look at the lantern in advance and found that there was actually an extra thing on the beam.

The beams were made of giant wood with a diameter of one foot and three inches, and a black package appeared on the beam. Because the package was too large, Liang Mu did not cover all the baggage, and a corner was exposed.

You Ziying said: "I'll move a ladder......"

As soon as Chen Ying's lantern walked out of the door of the storage room, he saw a fire dragon appear on the street in the distance......

"Catch the thief...... Catch the thief......" a faint shout came.

"It's not good, it must be a blame!" Chen Ying said: "You go to the front yard to block for a while, and I'll hide this burden!" ”

Chen Ying didn't bother to look for the ladder, grabbed the shield in You Ziying's hand, and threw it towards the beam.

It's just a pity that Chen Ying smashed on the beam of the house this time, shaking the dust in the storage room like rain.

You Ziying picked up the shield, didn't look at the beam, shook it hard, and the shield swirled and flew towards the beam.

There was a muffled sound of "dong ......", and this big black burden fell in response.

Chen Ying hurriedly stepped forward to open the package, this is a bright light armor painted gold, under the light of the lantern, the golden light is shining, the embroidered animal skin shawl (tube sleeve) and the Ming gold thread Yunwen short knee battle skirt, the tiger-style hood, and the wrought copper to make a neck guard.

"Good stuff!" You Ziying said: "This is a general-level battle robe!" ”

"That's why it's fatal!"

Chen Ying couldn't help but say, and ran towards the bedroom with this package in his arms.

When Xu Jingzong sold the house to Chen Ying, he did not tell Chen Ying about the dark room mechanism in the master bedroom. It's just that Lan'er accidentally found it when she was cleaning. In Chen Ying's mind, I am afraid that Xu Jingzong may not know about this dark room.

Chen Ying had just returned to the bedroom, and when he saw Lan'er staring at him with big eyes, he ignored Lan'er and walked directly to the closet, holding the copper-colored incense burner in the middle tightly with both hands, and there was a creaking sound.

The closet slowly moved away from the middle, revealing a small door that was more than six feet tall and about three feet wide.

This dark room was discovered by Xu Shanxin by accident, but Xu Shanxin did not use it. Chen Ying entered the musty dark room with his armor in his arms.

Put this armor into the dark room, Chen Ying quickly closed the dark room.

Chen Ying suddenly pounced on Lan'er, hugged Lan'er and covered the futon.

Carefully planning such a planting plan, it will definitely not be stopped by You Ziying and Zhang Huaiwei, the two captains who have not yet taken office, as the so-called officials do not know the official in Chang'an, not to mention the two of them who are seventh-grade captains, not to mention anything else, the entire Chang'an City has sixteen Wei generals and thirty-two Wei generals, and as for him Ning Yuan, there are more than a hundred five-grade generals.

Sure enough, as Chen Ying expected, after a while, the official holding the torch rushed to Chen Ying's bedroom and yelled.

"Come out, come out!"

Lan'er's body trembled in fright, Chen Ying gently patted Lan'er's fragrant shoulder, and said with relief: "Don't worry, you don't know anything!" ”

"The slave doesn't know anything!"

As soon as Chen Ying came out of the house, he saw Gao Wanqing's eyes showing a fierce light, looking at Chen Ying with bad intentions.

Gao Wanqing said: "Okay, you rabbit master, you actually dare to steal the ancestral treasure armor of the Marquis of Guangping, your courage is not small!" ”

Chen Yingdao: "Catch the traitor and catch the double, catch the thief and get dirty, the county lieutenant of Gao should not be untrustworthy!" ”

Gao Wanqing said: "Lu Anxi! ”

"The villain is here!"

"Tell him what you saw!"

"The villain saw someone carrying a big black package and entered the Chen Mansion!"

Chen Ying sneered: "Do you know who I am? ”

"Who are you, brothers, who don't know!" Gao Wanqing smiled arrogantly: "Aren't you the rabbit who sells ass!" ”

The officials laughed wantonly.

Gao Wanqing's face turned cold, and he yelled: "Search for me!" ”

The officials didn't waste time in Chen Ying's bedroom at all, and went straight to Chen Ying's storage room.

At this time, Chen Ying didn't have to think about it, even if he thought about it with his knees, he knew that this was Gao Wanqing playing a ghost, and it was Su Hu who was standing behind Gao Wanqing.

"Don't deceive people too much!" Chen Yingtie blushed and said, "Don't bully the young man to be poor!" ”

"What about bullying you? You can still bite me! Gao Wanqing laughed arrogantly.

At this moment, a head of the official team quietly came to Gao Wanqing's side and whispered softly in his ear.

The smile on Gao Wanqing's face was instantly fixed on his face.

"How could it be...... No? Gao Wanqing's face showed a hideous look, and he roared: "Search for me." Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to search for the treasure armor for me! ”

As he spoke, Gao Wanqing pushed open the door of the bedroom and knocked a tall vase next to the door to the ground.

"Whoa......

The tall vase was reduced to pieces.

"You!" Lan'er was so angry that her face flushed.

"No, Lieutenant Gao, you can smash it!" Chen Ying said disapprovingly: "Write down all the things they smashed, anyway, if you run away, the monk can't run away from the temple, and someone will always pay for these things!" ”

When Gao Wanqing heard this, the movements in his hands suddenly stopped.

Gao Wanqing led the officials to toss around Chen Ying's mansion for more than an hour, until the sky was bright, and the set of armor was still not found.

Gao Wanqing said: "Come on, arrest Chen Ying." Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, how hard are your bones as a rabbit master, under Miki, you can't do it! ”

"Really?" Chen Ying said: "There is still half an hour, I am going to Princess Pingyang's Mansion, I want to see if you are bold enough to ignore Princess Pingyang." ”

As soon as he heard this, Chen Ying knew that Gao Wanqing was ready to bend into a move. Once in prison, Gao Wanqing had a hundred ways to make him speak. When the time comes, he will call the heavens and the earth not spiritual.

Chen Ying only understood at this time that in this era, either work hard and be high, or you will be played to death!

Chen Ying fearlessly stretched out his hands and handed them to Gao Wanqing. "Come, put your shackles and chains on me!"

Gao Wanqing was embarrassed.

offended Princess Pingyang, he really didn't dare as a small county lieutenant. But if he couldn't find the armor, he wouldn't be able to explain to Su Hu when he went back.

looked at Gao Wanqing who couldn't advance or retreat, and his face was full of confusion.

Chen Ying looked at Lan'er casually and asked, "Lan'er, did they destroy the things in the house?" ”

Lan'er smiled knowingly, cleared her throat and said: "A chessboard with a small leaf sandalwood case, a discount of two hundred, a six-foot four vase, a discount of one hundred yuan...... Tables, cases, cabinets, lacquer boxes, and jade are all added together, and they are exempt from being strong and strong for 460 times. ”

Chen Ying said: "Lan'er, you must have miscalculated. This year's cold three friends pen holder was given by Princess Pingyang, it is said that it is a gift from His Majesty, destroying this thing is a great crime of disrespect, but it is to raid the family and exterminate the family! ”

When Gao Wanqing heard this, his face turned green with fright.

Four or five hundred yuan of money is really nothing to Gao Wanqing. But the gift of the emperor, this really killed him.

This time it's really a chicken steal.

"Let's go!" Gao Wanqing could only break his teeth and swallow it in his mouth at this time.

"Wait!"

Chen Ying said to Gao Wanqing's back: "County Lieutenant Gao, within three days, make up for the lost property of the Chen Mansion, otherwise you will wait!" ”

"Plop ......"

Gao Wanqing was stunned when he heard this.
