Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 411 Seal of the King of Nan'an

While reading the letter, he listened to Chai Jin's analysis of everyone's analysis, only to feel that one head and two big.

It just so happened that Chai Jin was a rogue, so Jing Shan decided to keep him, and the two of them searched the mansion together for the love hairpin of Princess Ancheng and Marquis Younan.

Because Deng Xiuchun was still in the mansion with ulterior motives, the two were afraid of scaring the snake, so they could only hold a small lamp at night, and carefully rummaged through the warehouse with the light as big as a palm.

Jing Shan guessed that the hairpin should be in her mother's room, but her mother moved to the courtyard many times after her illness. At that time, she was unconscious and had no time to take care of her younger sister's belongings. I found it useless, so I didn't organize it specially. After all these years, I don't know if I can still find it.

The two lit the lamp and opened the gate of the most primitive courtyard. This is the place where Princess Jiacheng lived before his illness. The place is cold and deep, and few people take care of it. It is swaying and graceful, especially dense, the moonlight is melting, the bamboo shadows are shaking, and the cold is so cold that people's backs are tight.

Many weeds emerged from the cracks in the bluestones on the ground, like a green carpet, Jing Shan felt a little sad for a while, "When my mother lived here, my aunt's family was harmonious and happy, who would have thought ..."

Chai Jin walked in loudly, blew out the lamp in his hand, and said casually: "The man has passed away, my lord's condolences, it's better to quickly find the hairpin and find out the truth."

Hearing this, Jing Shan also quickly cleared up his emotions, and the two entered the courtyard to search under the moonlight, careful not to make any noise, they were clearly in their own mansion, but they crept around like thieves, Jing Shan and Chai Jin had nothing to do. Although he was busy, his heart was filled with resentment.

As the moonlight dimmed, and the last ray of light slipped through the gap in the window, Shi Jingshan finally rummaged through a mahogany cabinet and found a dusty box with a golden lock.

"found it!"

He greeted Chai Jin with a low voice, and Chai Jin hurriedly followed.

Blow off the dust on the box, revealing the original exquisite pattern, the engraved phoenix playing on it is lifelike, and it is very close to the pattern on the rubbings, but it is so old that the key used to unlock the lock has long been lost. up.

Jing Shan was a little worried. Chai Jin’s impatience committed a crime. He took a step forward and forcefully opened the box. After all, it was made of wood. Unscrewing the locking piece, who knows, without much effort, the whole box was shattered.

Before there was any embarrassment, the two of them blew away the sawdust and poured out the contents of the box.

There are only a few scattered objects, broken jade pendants, broken back clouds, broken red tassels...

You are a princess, but in the end there are only so few relics, even a small box is not full, Jing Shan suddenly felt a sense of guilt, patronizing the official files for many years, and did not even take time to take care of the aunt's relics ...

"This is it."

Chai Jin let out an exclamation and pulled his thoughts back to reality, flipped his fingers, and squeezed out a hairpin inlaid with gold and jade from the scattered objects.

The hairpin is exquisite in workmanship, the head is a green luan flapping its wings, the eyes are sapphire gemstones, lifelike, even every feather is carved extremely vividly, as if it is really going to fly away in the next second, the body of the hairpin is transparent and pure, and the tentacles are alive Wen, there is also a peony pattern engraved on it, but the tail of the hairpin has been burnt black, and it can't be wiped clean.

Chai Jin didn't know how to appreciate this ingenious craftsmanship, so he looked left and right, "Exquisite is exquisite, and I can see that Marquis Younan carved it for Princess Ancheng. Could it be that Deng Xiuchun came here for it?"

Jing Shan was a little surprised, "How did Brother Chai see that this was made by You Nanhou?"

"I heard that Princess Ancheng is elegant by nature. Such a woman should like plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum," Chai Jin analyzed based on his many years of experience in thieves. Putting flowers and phoenix together, only men would clumsily pursue prosperity in order to seek the heart of their sweetheart, but Hou Ye's excellent craftsmanship can be regarded as making up for the deficiency."

Jing Shan was a little surprised, but found it interesting, but for a moment, another stone was blocked in his heart, and the cloud over his head was suppressed again, because he saw that there seemed to be a faint mark on the burnt black place of the tail of the hairpin.

His heart tightened, and he took the hairpin over, not caring much for a while, and wiped the scorched black with his sleeve vigorously under the moonlight.

Chai Jin didn't know why, so he hurriedly persuaded: "My lord, this hairpin is burnt black, it's not stained, I'm afraid it can't be wiped clean."

Jing Shan didn't say a word, her hands became stronger and stronger, and she finally wiped off some of the original color. With the help of the weak light, the two of them finally saw the mark hidden under the stain clearly.

A very small three-toothed worm is the family emblem of King Nan'an.

This... how could...

The two looked at each other in astonishment, their minds were surging with thoughts, and they felt a little dizzy, and couldn't think of a reason for a while.

Jing Shan supported the desk by the window, and Chai Jin sat on the bamboo chair beside him in a dejected and confused manner. Both of them were immersed in shock and confusion, and neither of them spoke.

Jing Shan held the hairpin tightly in his hand, poking it until blood dripped out of his palm, and then he gradually realized. At this moment, he suddenly felt that the hairpin, which was warmed by the tentacles, was extremely cold, like a thousand-year-old ice, which could penetrate Frozen all the way through the palm to the bone marrow, a terrible conjecture gradually emerged in my mind.

Could it be that the Xue family's extermination case was related to King Nan'an?
The moon had completely set to the west, and the room was plunged into darkness. Chai Jin blew on the torch, and the orange and dim light dispersed the darkness, illuminating the cold eyebrows and eyes of the two.

There were dogs barking from far and near, the birds on the branches were still chirping and jumping, and the crickets were screaming in the corner of the wall. Jing Shan finally regained his senses. stable.

"My lord," Chai Jin said in a steady voice, "Since we have found this token, what should we do next?"

Jing Shan looked at the Qingluan hairpin lying in his palm, took out a stained handkerchief from a corner, wrapped it, and solemnly handed it to Chai Jin, "It happened suddenly, so I won't write letters one by one. That's it, just tell Lin Ce and Luo Yu what you saw and heard today, and see if they have a way to crack it, and don't let the wind leak."

"Yes."

Chai Jin stuffed the hairpin in his arms, turned off the fire and quickly jumped down from the back window. The black figure quickly disappeared into the deepening night.

Jing Shan stood in front of the window for a long time, looking at the dark world, the tension in her heart became tighter and tighter. The matter of the Xue family might become more and more complicated.
