Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 577
There was only a little commotion in the mansion for a while, and then it returned to normal. Everyone sat down in the hall. Tang Luoyu was a little nervous, and the hands hanging on both sides of his body tightly squeezed the hem of the clothes, pinching out the embroidered mandarin ducks on the clothes. folds.

Xue Lince was also worried, but when he saw his wife's worried appearance, he felt a little distressed again. He raised his hand to hold her cool fingertips, and the warmth of each other spread on the skin. When Tang Luoyu raised his eyes, he saw Xue Lince's infinite warmth. In the eyes of tolerance and gentleness, there is finally a sense of peace in my heart.

"The most urgent thing is to find the official seal," Jing Shan stood in the center of the hall, tall and tall, and under the bright lights, her tall and straight figure cast a dark shadow on the ground. "The most important thing is to find the official seal. If it is stolen If it falls into the wrong hands, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble."

"Brother said so," Xue Lince frowned, "but there are many people coming and going in and out of the military department every day, how can we find this lost official seal?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into a suffocating silence, and Tang Luoyu suddenly spoke after a while.

"Wait," she slapped her forehead, "there are so many people entering and leaving the military department, but there must be only a few people who can get in touch with the official seal?"

She scanned the expressions of everyone in the hall, her eyes burning with eagerness.

Xue Lince's mind turned rapidly, "If this person has ulterior motives, he must have planned to steal it a long time ago, and he must not be among the few people who can get close to the official seal. Otherwise, once the official seal is lost, they will Wouldn't it be a waste of time to be suspected immediately?"

Everyone nodded, Chai Jin crossed his arms in front of his chest, and twitched his eyebrows, "I've never heard of thieves who use official seals in exchange for money in the Jianghu and black markets. This thing is not easy to get rid of. People who are not officials took it and squeezed it." It's like breaking a rock."

Tang Luoyu quickly heard something strange, "You mean, there are black hands controlling it?"

"That's right," Jing Shan rubbed the swollen brows, "This happened suddenly, someone must have taken the opportunity to suppress Lin Ce, the Ministry of War is the most stringent among the six departments, even if this person succeeds, it is impossible for him to Let go in such a short time."

Ke Ran pinched her fingers to count the time, and interrupted loudly, "What do you do, it hasn't been long since the official seal was stolen, so let's go and seal up the military department and search one by one."

"No," Xue Lince refused, "This is an abrupt move, and it will definitely scare the snake. First, if the thief sees it, he may jump the wall in a hurry. Second, the matter is of great importance. If the spokesperson sees it, it will spread it wildly. Third, , the small officials of the Ministry of War can only go out for a two-day rest in half a month, since we infer that this official seal must be in the hands of an inconspicuous person, there is no need to block the Ministry of War for search."

"It's better like this," Chai Jin said, "It's getting late, so I'll take advantage of the night to go and investigate. This thief will definitely not be able to sleep peacefully tonight, and he will definitely show his flaws."

Everyone thought it was reasonable, Xue Lince and Jing Shan thanked Chai Jin, and then he changed into night clothes, easily jumped up the eaves and down the ridge, and disappeared into the black night in the blink of an eye.

He came to the Ministry of War with ease, and the news of the loss of official seals did not spread, and the personnel in the Ministry were still busy with their duties.

Chai Jin was lying on the ridge of the roof, his black clothes perfectly blending with the night. His eyes were sharp and sharp, like a falcon dormant in the dark. His early experience as a rogue honed his extremely keen eyesight. All the details of the scene are in the eyes.

All the rooms in the courtyard were lit, and it was not too dark. Chai Jin waited for a long time until the branches of the moon rose, and all the small officials in the ministry dispersed and returned to the house before discovering the suspicious point.

The lights gradually went out, like a fish sinking to the bottom of the water, the moon hiding behind the dark clouds showed its face, Chai retreated behind the ridge of the roof, and saw a very strange plant in the courtyard by the bright moonlight.

The plants were tangled together, and only one cluster of leaves was very dense, as if someone purposely bound its branches and leaves together.

He held his breath and waited in the dark environment for a long time. Finally, in the silence, he heard a sound of footsteps coming from the courtyard, and then, a black-clothed official walked out of the house that had already turned off the lights. come out.

Like a mouse out of a hole, he poked his head and looked around. After making sure that there was no one around, he hurried out of the house and went straight to the strange-looking plant.

He stepped into the grass, untied the entangled branches and leaves, fiddled with them, and took out a black cloth bag from the branches and leaves. The cloth was not too heavy, so the shape of the contents was revealed, and the bright moon Looking down, Chai Jin clearly saw that it was a square thing!
What else can it be if it's not an official seal!
In order not to scare the snake away, Chai Jin didn't rush out to catch the little thief immediately, and only used lightness kung fu to make his way back home.

The hall of Xue Mansion was brightly lit, except for Tang Luoyu who was pregnant and needed to rest earlier, everyone was still waiting for him to come back.

"How about it?"

When Ke Ran saw Chai Jin who had come back with a dewy look, he hurried to meet him and question him.

"It's just a small family thief," Chai Jin described the small official's face, figure, and even the way he walked. "I didn't find any outsiders around when I went to investigate. Add search, so you don’t take the risk and sell immediately.”

"Wait a minute," Jing Shan suddenly interrupted the gradually rising atmosphere in the hall, "The matter of the official seal is very important, if you only see the shape of the cloth bag, it may be difficult to convince the public, you need to find evidence quickly, let the little girl The official took the initiative to hand over the official seal."

Ke Ran blinked her eyes twice, "Do we still have to let that little official lead us by the nose? If we suspect this person, we should just arrest him and interrogate him carefully."

Chai Jin poked him with his elbow, "Officials are not worlds, don't you understand after staying in Yuedong for so long?"

Ke Ran curled her lips, and swallowed all the words that followed unwillingly.

"It's not too late," Jing Shan's long eyebrows twitched lightly, "This little official has been working in the Ministry of War for a while, and he must have been ordered by someone. Since he was ordered, there must be signs of bribery. I will go tonight to thoroughly Check his family accounts."

Xue Lince stepped forward, "I will go too."

The two brothers looked at each other and nodded heavily, and Chai and Ke also asked to follow.

So when the moon rose into the sky, a group of four people left the mansion and walked all the way out of the city.

When the cock crowed, everyone had checked all the suspicious accounts of the nearby bank, and finally caught the evidence that the little official was instigated by others.

It's just because he, an ordinary military official, has made a lot of big money in the past few days, which has already exceeded the monthly rule.
