Keyboard Immortal - 354. Chapter 353
“I want a salt farm?” Zu An frowned and said objectively that it is normal for the lender to ask for collateral, and the most valuable thing in the Chu family is the salt farm.
However, the Wei family mentioned this condition on this sensitive occasion, and they also had the background of the imperial palace.
Perhaps the Wei family was aware of this problem, so the interest rate was set so low, otherwise the Chu family would not consider it at all.
“What is the lady going to do?” Zuan asked.
Qin Wanru shook his head: “I haven’t thought about it yet. Go back and discuss it with them.”
After finishing talking, she rubbed her forehead with her hands a little tired, obviously since her husband’s accident, she had been working hard and hadn’t taken a good rest.
Zuan wittily stopped disturbing her, and retired from her carriage. His attention quickly returned to the box he found in Wei’s house. He took it out several times in the middle, but it was a pity that he couldn’t break the seal on the outside.
After sending Qin Wanru back to Chu Mansion, Zu An was thinking about going to meet with Pei Mianman, but he ran into Old Man Mi head on.
Zuan was taken aback, and hurriedly said, “Hello, senior.”
Old Mi frowned and pulled him aside: “Don’t call me that in front of people in the future. I’m not used to being watched.”
“I took it down.” Zuan replied.
“I heard that you just went to Wei Mansion with your wife?” Old man Mi looked at him with scorching eyes, as if to see him through.
Fortunately, Zuan has already worked hard, and his mentality has long since stabilized: “Yes, Madam wants to borrow money from Wei’s house and just came back from there.”
“The person you saw last time, did you meet this time?” Old Man Mi asked nervously.
“No, Madam is talking about things with their Patriarch, and I’m waiting by the side.” Zuan wondered why he was so jealous of that person.
“That’s good,” Old Man Mi was obviously relieved, “By the way, did you find the box I told you in the Wei’s house this time?”
Zuan shook his head: “No, didn’t you say you don’t need to look for it last time?”
Old Man Mi frowned, and did not speak.
At this time, Zuan felt a shady sweep across his body. Not surprisingly, it should be that the other party was using his divine sense to probe his body.
Fortunately, the box was placed in the inner space of the glazed orb before, otherwise it must have been discovered now, and the prohibition on the box must have something that can be mentally sensitive to him.
After a while, old man Mi nodded: “It’s not bad, but people have a bad memory when they are old, haha…”
After speaking, he walked tremblingly with the small flower hoe, no matter from which angle he looked, he looked like an old flower farmer.
Zu An walked around the mansion for a while, pretending to be looking for someone to discuss things, presumably it would not cause Old Man Mi to doubt it, so he slipped out of Chu Mansion quietly.
Along the way, he deliberately circled a few more times, and only after making sure that there was no follower did he arrive at the agreed pavilion.
Looking at the familiar pavilion, Zuan couldn’t help feeling a little bit. The last time I met Shang Liuyu here, he didn’t expect to see another woman here again.
“What are you talking about?” A melodious voice sounded, and Pei Mianman had already turned out of the dark.
Zuan breathed a sigh of relief: “It’s okay if you’re fine, I’m still worried that you won’t be able to escape from that person.”
Pei Mianman pursed his lips and said, “I would like to thank you for the fire, otherwise, even though I was well prepared, I was almost caught by that person.”
Thinking of the horror of that person, she still had some lingering fears.
“It’s just easy, it’s up to you to escape.” Zuan smiled.
At this moment, he suddenly received an anger value in the background.
The anger value from Wei Wei is +358!
Wei Wei? It should be the name of the mysterious master of the Wei family.
It seems that it was mostly due to the rage value generated by the burning of the yard. Because the Wei family put out the fire in time, the loss of the yard was small.
I thought I didn’t find the box was replaced, otherwise the anger was worth more than this.
“By the way, did you find anything?” Pei Mianman asked hurriedly.
Zuan took out the box: “I only found this.”
He was curious about what was in the box, but unfortunately he couldn’t open it. He thought about Pei Mianman’s knowledge and see if she could open or recognize the box.
“Huh?” Pei Mianman took it and looked at it over and over for a while.
Zuan said: “Be careful of the seal.”
Pei Mianman smiled slightly: “This is easy.”
She saw a small black flame beating on her finger, and then gently flicked her finger on the box. The flame suddenly spread into a layer of flame, and the layer of radiance around the box was quickly burned.
“Okay!” Pei Mianman’s lips raised, and then he reached out to open the box.
“Be careful!” Zuan hurriedly stopped her. He was worried about the things that even Old Man Mi wanted.
Pei Mianman nodded, and the two backed a few meters, and then Pei Mianman stretched out his hand, and a soft breath rushed over, as if an invisible hand opened the box.
The two of them waited for a while, and then they hurriedly moved forward when they saw that no mechanism had emerged.
I saw that the inner wall of the box was surrounded by soft fillers wrapped in silk, and there was an object in the middle, wrapped with a good brocade on one side, and the outside was tied with red thread a few times.
Pei Mianman was a little disappointed suddenly, looking at the size and shape, it was obviously impossible for her to be the token she was looking for.
Zuan untied the red thread curiously, then opened Jinpa bit by bit, and finally couldn’t help but wonder: “What is this?”
I saw something dark in the middle of the handkerchief, like a dried earthworm.
Thinking of old man Mi’s solemnity, Zu An couldn’t help but leaned into his nose and smelled it: “Could it be that the panacea is not working?”
There is a faint smell of medicine, but it is very strange, not the smell of the medicines that I smelled at Ji Xiaoxi’s house before.
Hearing what he said, Pei Mianman also became interested, and came to study it: “It’s not like it, there is no vitality fluctuation, there is no such thing as a genius treasure.”
“This thing must be very important.” Zuan said categorically, otherwise Old Man Mi wouldn’t be obsessed with it.
“Where did you find it?” Pei Mianman asked curiously.
“It must be an extremely important thing that is hidden so deep in a secret space under his bed.” Zuan said.
“Hidden under the bed…” Pei Mianman was a little confused, and suddenly thought of something, his face instantly blushed, and he threw the box over, as if his hands were hot.
“Hey hey, be careful.” Zuan was in a hurry and finally caught the thing and didn’t let it fall to the ground. At the same time, he couldn’t help but curiously asked, “What’s the matter?”
Pei Mianman blushed and turned around and took a sip: “That thing is also a treasure for your men.”
It’s hard to see her coy appearance, Zuan became more and more curious: “Do you know what this is?”
While talking, he took it to his eyes and glanced again.
Pei Mianman was embarrassed to say, but when he saw that he was going to sniff it in his nose, he finally couldn’t help but stop: “Hey, don’t, that’s…that’s the eunuch’s…the root of the eunuch’s troubles.”
“The root of trouble?” Zuan didn’t react for a while, and was about to ask again. He suddenly thought of something, and threw the thing and the box out like a hot hand, “Fuck!”
Thinking that he had just held the thing tossing over and over again, and even sniffed it between his nose, Zuan felt that his stomach was turned upside down, and he hurried to the side of the bushes and retched.
Seeing his uncomfortable appearance, Pei Mianman was angry and funny, still patted his back tenderly for him.
Zuan looked speechless: “Sister, why didn’t you say it earlier!”
“I just remembered,” Pei Mianman flushed, “Besides, you are still a man, why can’t you recognize it by yourself.”
Zuan was even more depressed: “I’m used to seeing eagles spread their wings, but I don’t know someone is like an earthworm.”
The more I talked, the more I felt nauseous, and it was another retching.
Pei Mianman smiled and said: “It should be some eunuchs who entered the palace since childhood. They cleaned themselves when they were very young, and then they were pickled with various drugs to prevent them from decay. After air drying and dehydration, it is estimated that there will only be this… That’s it.”
Zuan: “…”
Although he knew the species of eunuch, it was too far away from him after all, how could I know the specifics?
At this time, Pei Mianman was a little worried: “The eunuchs value themselves very much… They call this thing a treasure, and it must be taken back and buried together for safety. This implies that the body is complete, and the next life can be a complete person. But generally In other words, these things are all kept in the palace, and they cannot be taken out privately. Grandpa Wei has a special position in the palace. Most of it is the emperor’s kindness, and he can take it out by himself.”
“But in this way, you stole his treasure. If you let him find out, it will definitely be an endless situation, or find a chance to put it back.”
This thing is completely useless to other people, but the eunuchs’ rebellious scales are enough to make any eunuch crazy, and the benefits and risks are completely disproportionate.
“Don’t worry, I did the tricks over there, and I shouldn’t be discovered for a while.” Zuan’s face was strange, all the clues before were connected together, he finally realized it, and figured out a lot of things that he didn’t understand before.
