Back in their own courtyard, Shen Mingshu and Luo Xin sat side by side on the bed after washing up, watching the playbook together.

I read the previous book about the Taoist nun and the White Rabbit Spirit. It is said that the White Rabbit Spirit took the Taoist nun back to the cave and took good care of her.

The Taoist nun is beautiful, and the white rabbit fell in love with her foolishly, and was trying every means to confess to the Taoist nun, but just when she was about to confess, the wolf demon who injured the Taoist nun chased after her.

The White Rabbit Spirit was defeated, so he had to take the Taoist girl east to hide in Tibet, but was still blocked by the wolf demon.

Luo Xin looked worried, her eyes were on the pages of the book, she bit her lower lip tightly with her white teeth, looked at Shen Mingshu, and grabbed her sleeve with one hand.

Seeing her like this, Shen Mingshu comforted her softly, "Don't be nervous, you'll be fine, don't bite yourself."

Luo Xin nodded, and then let go of her teeth, and there was still a slight mark on her lower lip, "Sister, turn the page and see what's going on behind."

Shen Mingshu turned his head backwards, and just as the white rabbit met the wolf demon and was beaten to death, the Taoist nun finally recovered her mana and took down the wolf demon.

Only then did Luo Xin breathe a sigh of relief, "It's okay." But soon she became worried again, "But Taoist nun has recovered her mana and is leaving, and the white rabbit hasn't confessed yet."

Seeing that it was getting late, Shen Mingshu closed the script, stroked the top of her hair, and said, "Don't worry, Taoist nun also said that she wanted to repay the White Rabbit Spirit, so she definitely wouldn't just leave, it's not too early Alright, let's go to bed first and see tomorrow."

Luo Xin nodded obediently, lay down along the quilt, and when Shen Mingshu lay down, she skillfully leaned into her arms.

She leaned against Shen Mingshu and closed her eyes, and said softly, "The White Rabbit Spirit is so good, it would be too pitiful if Taoist nun didn't like her."

"I will definitely like her." Shen Mingshu looked down at the person leaning in his arms, his eyes were gentle, and he didn't know if he was talking about the Taoist nun and the White Rabbit Spirit or someone else.

Originally, I thought that tonight would be a safe and sound night, but I didn't expect that something would happen when it was dawn.

Shen Li sent the news in hastily, Qiu Nong and Lan Yin listened, and quickly knocked on the door lightly, waiting anxiously for a response from inside.

Shen Mingshu was sleeping with Luo Xin in his arms, and did not wake up until the second knock on the door, covered Luo Xin's ears with a frown, and raised his hand to pull the rope on the bedside.

Qiu Nonglan was relieved to hear the bell ringing outside. After a while, Shen Mingshu put on a coat and opened the door. He frowned and asked, "What happened?"

Qiu Nong said hastily, "Miss, Shen Li sent in the news that the shopkeeper Lou was knocked out? The box of black pearls is also gone."

When Shen Mingshu heard the news, his sleepy mind calmed down, and he asked in a clear voice, "Who else knows about this?"

Qiu Nong showed embarrassment, lowered his head and said, "I found out that the shopkeeper Lou was terrified, and half of Linlang Pavilion knew about it after shouting."

Shen Mingshu nodded with a calm expression, "I see, I will wash and change immediately, and ask Shen Li to prepare the carriage and wait."

"Yes." Qiu Nonglan responded, and quickly left to continue the arrangement.

Shen Mingshu entered the room, changed his clothes lightly, made sure that Luo Xin hadn't been woken up, and then opened the door and went out.

Before getting into the carriage, she told Lan Yin to talk to Luo Xin, Mo Yan was worried.

Shen Li drove towards Linlang Pavilion quickly in his carriage. It was not yet bright, and the road was quiet, only the sound of horseshoes stepping on the bluestone slabs could be heard.

Shen Mingshu sat in the car with a condensed expression. This happened in Linlang Pavilion, so there must be an inner ghost.

This kind of scandal has always been resolved quietly, so that too many people should not be aware of it. If there are too many people talking about it, it will damage the reputation of the store.

Moreover, when the Black Pearl is involved, this matter is even more unusual. The divorce period is not long, and it will definitely be too late to send it from Nanyang. Got a hot potato.

There are many pearl shops in Yangzhou city, but there are not many Nanyang black pearls, especially the high-quality ones are even rarer, and only the Wei family may have them.

When Shen Mingshu got off the carriage, he told Shen Li, "Go to the Wei family and ask if the young master of the Wei family can help."

Shen Li hesitated for a moment, then said, "This business has been won by us, the Wei family may..."

Shen Mingshu said lightly, "The young master of the Wei family is not the kind of narrow-minded person, you should go and ask first."

Shen Li bowed his head in response, and quickly walked out the door, heading towards the Wei Mansion.

Shen Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and entered Linlang Pavilion.

Linlang Pavilion has prepared a temporary room for several shopkeepers, yesterday Lou shopkeeper lived in this room to avoid suspicion in order to guard the black pearl.

Last night, he ordered his servants to prepare the horse early and send the black pearl there quickly. After the servants who prepared the horse waited and waited, they didn't see him come down. They went upstairs to have a look, only to find that the shopkeeper upstairs had been knocked unconscious and lying on the ground. On the bed, there was a big lump on his head.

Shen Mingshu went upstairs, the doctor he had invited had already arrived, looked at the situation of the shopkeeper, and said, "This is someone who swung a stick from behind, fortunately, the murderer was only trying to make money, and he didn't kill him. Just rest for a few days."

The other shopkeepers who were in charge of the house were relieved. If someone died, it would be even more difficult to explain.

Seeing Shen Mingshu coming in, the shopkeepers found the backbone and gathered around to explain the current situation.

Shen Mingshu glanced at the room, and found that the cabinet beside the bed where shopkeeper Lou was lying was wide open, and a broom was thrown on the floor.

"Are you sure who did it now?" Shen Mingshu retracted his gaze and asked softly.

Now that there are too many people talking, I can't control it anymore. It's better to solve the matter quickly.

One of the shopkeepers said, "We took someone to check, and Feng Xin who was following shopkeeper Lou disappeared. I'm afraid he did it."

Another shopkeeper nodded and agreed, "The shopkeeper Lou was knocked unconscious from behind. If it was someone he didn't know, how could something happen without a single movement."

Shen Mingshu nodded, "I see, wait for the shopkeeper Lou to wake up, and then listen to what he has to say. For today's affairs, we should find the things first. Where is Feng Xin's information?"

The guys who work in Linlang Pavilion must have a stable residence, have a clean family background, and all kinds of information are stored in Linlang Pavilion.

It would be good for Shen Mingshu to let the other storekeepers go back to do their own business, leaving only one steward of Linlang Pavilion to investigate together.

Feng Xin's information was quickly found out. Shen Mingshu sent someone to look for it, but learned that Feng Xin's mother had left a few days ago, so they separated. The house belonged to the eldest family, and Feng Xin could only move. go out.

When Feng Xin's sister-in-law heard that she was looking for Feng Xin, and saw that they were approaching aggressively, she cursed and separated her relationship, and the searchers had no choice but to return.

Shen Mingshu was not surprised, and sent out people to guard the gates of Yangzhou City. Now that the gates have not been opened, Feng Xin is naturally still in the city.

Shen Mingshu was waiting for the news in Linlang Pavilion. Not long after, Shen Li came back with a very ugly expression, obviously he had suffered a lot at Wei's house.

He bowed to Shen Mingshu and said, "The eldest son of the Wei family is not here, so I couldn't go in, but judging from the manager's tone, the Wei family probably does have black pearls."

Shen Mingshu nodded, but he understood in his heart, after all, some things were too coincidental.

She comforted Shen Li a few words, just at that moment the shopkeeper Lou woke up, and they walked towards his room.

Seeing Shen Mingshu approaching, Shopkeeper Lou even covered his face with his sleeves, crying out that he was ashamed of his trust in Shen Mingshu, and threw the black pearl in his hands.

He was emotionally agitated, he had suffered a head injury and almost passed out, the doctor quickly motioned for Shen Mingshu to comfort him.

Shen Mingshu patted him on the shoulder and said, "You have suffered such a serious injury, you just need to rest well."

Hearing what she said, Shopkeeper Lou shed a few more tears, but his mood finally stabilized.

Only then did Shen Mingshu ask, "Did you see the person who hurt you?"

Shopkeeper Lou nodded immediately, and said angrily, "It's that kid Feng Xin, I've always treated him well, I never thought he would do such a thing."

Shopkeeper Lou explained what happened last night in detail, "Yesterday I took the pearl and locked it in the cabinet in this room. At night, Feng Xin came to find me to report what I told him. I turned around and went to get the pen and paper. Unexpectedly, he was swung from behind and passed out immediately."

Shen Mingshu listened carefully, told him to rest well, and then left.

After such busy work, the sky was completely bright. Standing on the second floor, Shen Mingshu looked at the guys coming and going downstairs, his eyes were condensed, and the black pupils were clear.

Standing aside, Shen Liqiu was also full of worries, and they also knew the urgency of this errand.

If Master Futai finds out, the business will be in vain, and if he offends Master Futai, it will be difficult for Linlang Pavilion to make a sound in the future.

Shen Mingshu naturally knew this in her heart, but she knew a little more than Shen Li and the others, and she even had some clues about who did this thing.

Feng Xin did this, but she didn't believe that Feng Xin would do such a thing for money. After all, the goal of black pearls was too big, so what could Feng Xin do with that box of pearls?

As long as Feng Xin has a little brain, he will not do such a thing. It is more beneficial to stay in Linlang Pavilion to steal some inconspicuous things.

There must be other people behind him, and it can only be those few people. Now that the matter has started, the people behind Feng Xin should also take the next step.

Shen Mingshu narrowed his eyes, left the railing and walked back to his room, now he could only wait for the person behind him to jump out.
