Stealing time

Extra Eight (Ninety-nine)

I agreed to Tao'er's request to go out for a walk, but she went to me all morning and didn't come back until lunch! Looking carefully at my face to serve tea to our brother, my anger was reduced, and my heart softened, and I only punished her for standing beside the waiter.

She actually fell asleep standing.

I looked at my little sleeping face and held her in my arms sadly. I slept in my arms all afternoon, and I couldn't wake up. Girl, where have you been crazy all morning? Are you so tired?

When I returned home today, I saw the little man named Anlu Village in front of Uncle Gong's door. His back had a sense of familiarity. I can't help but look more. The moment he saw it, his eyes seemed to be surprised.

Is it surprising to see him in front of his house?

Strange, strange things have always happened recently!

The teahouse that Taoer went to today was searched by a group of people. The two bodyguards I sent to secretly protect Taoer came back to report that there were four martial arts practitioners, and it seemed that they had not found a target. My bodyguard followed them and found that they had entered the fourth brother's mansion.

Thoroughly investigate the teahouse. The boss is a tea merchant. He is also an imperial merchant who provides tea for the palace, and he is very familiar with the eighth brother. Does the fourth brother want to attack him? What a coincidence, did you do it when Taoer went?

Or is his goal originally Taoer? It's not impossible! According to the last two observations, the fourth brother is very interested in Taoer.

My fourth brother actually wants to attack my people! Fortunately, Taoer was not in the single room at that time and escaped the disaster. What will the fourth brother do when he catches Tao'er? They are all men. You don't have to think about it. Although the guards sent to protect Taoer are also well-trained, after all, it is difficult to beat four hands with two fists, and the fourth brother sent a lot of people!

I'm a little scared when I think about it.

Strengthen the guard of Taoer. Every time you go out, you have to send at least ten bodyguards to protect you. If the fourth brother wants to do it again, he has to think about whether to make a big move first.

The capital has not been peaceful recently, and there are frequent news that rich people have been stolen. Sometimes, three or four households reported the case overnight. Shunfu and Wucheng soldiers and horses are very busy every day, but there is no clue to find. All the signs show that the thief this time is a very powerful thief. He is not only good at stealing, but also good at covering up the traces of the crime, so that the solver has no way to start.

I linked several cases with the thefts that occurred in the Ping County Palace and the Third Brother's Mansion six months ago. It's all such superb means, and it's all like this without leaving a trace.

I mobilized all the criminal investigation forces in the capital, including the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and even transferred Zhu Bizhen, the first master of the Qing Dynasty, from Jinling to participate in solving the case, but with little effect. Cases are still happening one after another, but no more clues can be found.

Zhu Bizhen reported to me with a big sweat. The thief's method of committing the crime was very strange, bold but extremely ingenious, but unheard of.

Even the first criminal investigator in the Qing Dynasty has never heard of it. I'm afraid it's difficult to solve the case!

Zhu Bizhen asked a question. Have there been any strange characters who suddenly appeared in the capital recently?

A strange character? It's a way to solve the case.

To talk about strange people, there are countless cousins of Lin Fengchi and Lin Qianer, who appeared in the capital at the beginning of last year.

Lin Fengchi is elegant and talented, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Such a talent can be regarded as strange. The most special thing is that he also has a strange cousin Lin Qianer. Lin Qian'er is bright, straightforward and generous, and because she is proficient in rhythm and has a graceful singing voice, she is known as Xiao Han E. The background of the two brothers and sisters is also extraordinary. It is rumored that they are from Li Guangdi's people.

Such a pair of cousins have attracted a lot of relatives and nobles in the wealth circle of the capital. The women who did not leave the cabinet secretly expressed their lovesickness to Lin Fengchi, while the young man was very attentive to Lin Qianer. Among the women who admire Lin Fengchi, even the arrogant little cousin of Uncle Yuwang's family, I didn't pay attention to anyone except our brothers before. However, Lin Qianer attracted a close noble child, including the fourteenth brother, although she had a strong smell of dust.

This brother and sister should be strange, right?

It seems that my men should take more care of them!

Again, it's Taoer. As an erudite and intelligent woman, she is proficient in wine tasting and treasure appreciation. Such a woman is strange, but if she stays in my house, she should be excluded. But why do I have so many doubts in my heart?

The Longevity Festival is coming, and there are many Mongolian relatives who celebrate their birthdays in the capital, including the attached class of Chunxi. I have always been quite confused about the pure jubilee to marry him. I suspect that there must be unspeakable secrets in those years. Could it be that Bandi caught the handle of Chunxi or Prince Gong's Mansion?

When Chunxi was sent to Mongolia, the class was respectful, but there was a strong sense of picky in his eyes. Feel his hatred. I don't know where his hatred comes from? However, if you want to compete, I have never cared about anyone!

Razang Khan's arrogantness provoked the competitive spirit of the brothers, and they were unprecedentedly unanimous in trying to give Razang Khan a way. The most proud thing about Lazang Khan recently is that he was given a jade bowl by the emperor. In addition, he married Gerdan's niece as a concubine. It is said that he is not only the most beautiful girl on the grassland, but also a very good drinker.

Even the eighth brother had to bring the eighth sister-in-law to fight with that man. When Lao Shi and fourteen o'clock, I couldn't refuse any more. These two younger brothers like to have fun with Taoer, regardless of the occasion. It's really a headache! Oh, just take it. Just let the class have a look, Aixinjueluo. How can he reach everything about Yin Zhen?

Taoer's interest in Cui Yuzhan was all revealed in her eyes. The longer she gets along with her, the more it shows that her love for her baby is not what ordinary people can expect. That kind of love is not only the love of money, but also the appreciation of the baby itself. He is a person who really knows how to taste treasures.

Here, the two of us have an extremely tacit understanding. Collect a large number of treasures, not only because of their value, but also because of their love for them.

Taoer, this girl has a tacit understanding with me. It's not just that, we don't do any loss-making business. The little thing was brought reluctantly, drinking the soup fed to his lips, and his face was full of calculation.

Sure enough, he began to squint at me and ask for a reward: "How good is Taoer today? What do you give me? What do you eat? How can I reward Taoer?" As cunning as a little fox.

Who can have the heart to refuse such a cute look? I knew that I was taking the opportunity to blackmail, but I couldn't get annoyed.

"Taoer will reward you for whatever you like, okay?" I readily agreed. Looking at the cute appearance of being jubilant because of the succeeding, I would like to give it to no more babies.

Taoer really lived up to expectations. When Naren Yanna came to challenge, she was drunk by Taoer. The most funny thing is Tao'er's nondescript toast. The famous poems of the ancients can be used in this way!

Bai Juyi's "Yi Jiangnan" has been changed to this. I don't know if it will make him angry. Li Bai listened to the adaptation of "Early White Emperor City", and he would also laugh and cry in the underworld, right?

My peach is really talented! It's an annoying talent!

From the first time I heard the interest in Feng Benshi's eyes when he mentioned the "Lanting Preface", to the relieved look after looking at the word "flower sculpture" on the wine pot, and the eyes that looked at the two peerless books in the study from time to time, he had long suspected that he was literate. But he deliberately pretended to be illiterate in front of him. Now listening to the tampered ancient poems adds to the question.

If I ask her, this little liar will definitely make a toast from that strange person.

What secrets are hidden in her body? Why did she cover up her luminance and not let everyone, including her man, see it?

I'll figure it out. It is interesting to explore her secrets. I will peel off the clothes she used to cover her shame layer by layer, and finally reveal her true face.

Taoer, your man wants to see the most real you. So, you wait, waiting for your man to strip your soul like your body!

Cui Yuzhan was lost, and Tao'er also disappeared. I hurriedly took people around to look for it. The prince and others thought they were just looking for Cui Yuzhan, and they also followed.

When she found Tao's child, she sat alone on the steps of the yard and slept soundly. The little figure was so lonely and weak against the dark night. What surged in my heart was the joy of losing and the impulse to hold her in my arms and take care of her. When I found that Tao'er was missing just now, I was even more anxious than losing Cui Yuzhan.

Taoer's body was cold, and I wrapped my cloak around her. But she was polite, because of the crowd around her? Taoer doesn't seem to be very happy, but she is too busy now to explore the reasons for the time being. Ask her when she goes back!

The loss of Cui Yuzhan shocked everyone. Not only because of their special origin and owner's identity, but also because they were lost in the post hall of Lifanyuan. Wherever our brothers go, they are not protected layer by layer, let alone in the government gate of the capital, the guard is so tight that there is no leakage!

Unexpectedly, someone passed through this layer of protection and stole our brother's things under our eyes! Not yet?

Cui Yuzhan was very strange. A man washing dishes became a suspect. He was seen walking out of the post hall with a food box. Other than that, no one else went out with their belongings.

But the suspect was found fainting in the kitchen dishwasher with his companions. His companion confessed that he was covered his mouth and nose with a cloth from behind, and then fainted. There seems to be a strange fragrance on the cloth.

It sounds like a Chinese phrodisiac. But what powerful anecoctive medicine can make people faint in an instant without a chance to struggle? Even the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital have never heard of this medicine.

The suspect named Xiaojiangzi was stunned by a person who looked exactly like himself with a handkerchief with a strange fragrance. Exactly the same person? It sounds like he was stunned by himself. It's incredible!

The people who questioned the case felt that this person was the most suspected. He had the opportunity to stun his companion, stole Cui Yuzhan, and then went back to pretend to be dizzy. However, there were also suspicious things in it. The two bodyguards only saw Xiaojiang go out, but they didn't see him come back. The bodyguard once chased Xiaojiangzi for a while because of a quarrel, so he quickly chased out of the gate and was stopped by me and several others. Thinking about it, if we had taken a step in the morning, we might have seen him going out with a food box.

Don't miss the opportunity to intercept Cui Yuzhan. It's true that you're playing tricks on people!

Huang Ama was shocked by this. He repeatedly asked, has the security of the capital reached such a point? How can it make thieves so rampant?

As the person in charge of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Huang Ama's words make me feel guilty. It is a heavy responsibility to solve the case as soon as possible and find Cui Yuzhan. I was busy day and night, dismantling suspicious cases with my subordinates, and investigating them one by one.

The little sauce was beaten out of shape, but he couldn't ask anything. Let them stop the interrogation. Zhu Bizhen mentioned to me that there is such a kind of transfigurement technique in the world, which can change people's faces, but I can't see it. However, it is said that this kind of transfigurement has long been lost. Is it back in the world now?

If there is such a transfaction, it is not completely impossible for someone to sneak into a small sauce into the kitchen.

So, who has such courage and ability? He must first become an advanced and well-protected post hall! According to the understanding of the defense situation of the post hall at that time, an outsider could not enter the post hall at all. Or is there an insider in the post hall? The post hall is a place dedicated to contacting the tributes of various countries. The guards in it have been carefully screened. It is not trustworthy and will not be arranged here at all.

Let people check the people in the post hall again, but they didn't find anything suspicious.

Could it be the guests who came here for the banquet? Zhu Bizhen carefully asked a question. He also knew that most of the people who came to the banquet were the families of us brothers. No one had looked at them suspiciously before.

In this way, Taoer and other family are suspected. It's not that you can say it casually. It involves the face of the royal family. I don't want Zhu Bizhen to mention a topic in the future.

Nevertheless, I began to suspect in my heart.

Is it possible that the suspect is at home? Is Taoer also a suspect?

Thinking of Tao's unique appreciation of treasures, the abnormality she showed in the fourth brother's house and after coming back. Is it really possible?
