Luo Qinghan asked while looking at the ten large wooden boxes still stained with dirt in front of them.

"What's in here?"

The Yulin guards lifted the lid of the box, revealing the neatly stacked gold bars.

This is actually ten boxes full of gold!

Xiao Xixi was still a little weak at first, but when he saw so much gold, he immediately became energized!

It was the first time in her life that she faced so much gold, and it was an indescribable shock.

Shang Kui answered truthfully, "All this gold was dug out of Zhu Quankun's yard."

These boxes were buried deep and covered with flowers and plants as cover. If the Jade Lin Guards had not dug three feet into the ground, they might not have been able to find them.

Luo Qinghan just glanced at the gold, then withdrew his gaze and asked lightly.

"Where's the Lin family?"

As soon as Shang Kui raised his hand, two Yu Linwei immediately came up with a woman on a stretcher.

The woman lying on the stretcher was the missing Lin.

She was unconscious at this time, her face was pale, and there was a lot of dust on her hair and clothes, and it seemed that she had suffered a lot.

Luo Qinghan asked Mei Guangtao to come over.

Mei Guangtao's eyes hurt at first when he was shaken by the golden gold, and then he was taken aback when he saw Lin Shi again.

"Isn't this Mrs. Dong? How did you find her?"

Shang Kui replied, "Zhu Quankun has a house in Liuye Alley, and Mrs. Dong is locked in the cellar of that yard. The gold was dug out from that yard."

Mei Guangtao was surprised: "I sent someone to search that house before, but I didn't find any clues."

Shang Kui didn't know how to explain this, so he could only say it dryly.

"Probably we are lucky, we should check more carefully."

Mei Guangtao: "..."

It turns out that I can't find the clue, is it because of my bad luck and not doing things carefully?

Thinking of this, I suddenly wanted to shut myself up.

Luo Qinghan said: "You go to inform Dong Shangshu as soon as possible, let his family come over quickly, and then hire a doctor for Lin's."

Mei Guangtao immediately started to do it.

Lin was settled in the guest room, and soon Dong Mingchun hurried over with his two sons.

Under the doctor's treatment, Lin Shi soon woke up.

The doctor told Dong's family that Lin was in a drowsiness because he was drugged, and there was not much physical damage.

Looking at the familiar family members, Lin Shi was very excited and cried out of breath.

Dong Mingchun was also very excited, but fortunately, he was well-informed and quickly stabilized his emotions.

He hugged his wife and comforted her.

When Lin Shi gradually stopped crying, Mei Guangtao walked in, and he told the whole story about it, and finally said it.

"The lower official needs Mrs. Dong's testimony as evidence, and I hope Mrs. Dong can cooperate."

Lin Shi is naturally very cooperative.

She told everything she had been through.

After Lin was introduced to Dusheng Sect, he was bewitched by Zhu Quankun's rhetoric.

Zhu Quankun is particularly articulate. First, he bragged about the gods enshrined in the Dusheng Sect, and boasted that their gods were omnipotent. As long as they believed in his teachings, everything could go well, and they could do whatever they wanted.

Lin Shi was still dubious at first, but she couldn't stand Xue Shi constantly talking in her ear, saying how powerful this Ming Deng Zhenren was, and the more she said, the more Lin Shi gradually believed.

Later, Zhu Quankun said that he would build a temple for the gods. This is a great opportunity to accumulate merit, so believers must not miss it.

Lin's hand is not short of money, she thinks it's okay to donate some money.

But she accidentally discovered Zhu Quankun's true face and knew that he was a liar.

She wanted to go home and tell her husband about this, but Zhu Quankun noticed it, so Zhu Quankun tied her up and planned to use her to extort a sum of money, and then sell her in deep mountains.

Every day, Zhu Quankun would have people feed her food and water that had been addicted to drugs, which kept her in a coma.

In four days, Lin had woken up several times, and each time she woke up, the environment around her would be different, so she wasn't quite sure where she was being held.

Mei Guangtao said after listening to her.

"It must be that Zhu Quankun is afraid of being discovered, so he changes the place where the hostages are placed every day. This person is really cunning!"

Dong Mingchun patted his wife's back and comforted her gently: "Don't be afraid, everything is over."

Mei Guangtao took Lin's confession to meet the prince.

"His Royal Highness, now that the evidence is conclusive, it should be possible to convict Zhu Quankun."

After reading the statement, Luo Qinghan said indifferently: "There is one more thing, I don't understand very well."

"Please speak, Your Highness."

"Zhu Quankun kidnapped Lin's family for money, but yesterday Dong Shangshu went to pay the ransom, but he was assassinated on the way. If it was just for money, why would he kill someone? Dong Shangshu can appoint an official at the court, and if he dies, the case is bound to be closed. If there is a big trouble, Zhu Quankun will definitely not be able to run away by then, he will do all the harm and no benefit."

Mei Guangtao also felt that this was strange.

"Xiaguan is going to interrogate Zhu Quankun and see what he has to say."

He bowed his hands and left.

Luo Qinghan turned his head and saw Xiao Xixi sitting under the porch eating dates.

There are two jujube trees next to the tea room. It is the season for fruiting, and there are many fresh jujubes hanging on the branches.

The servants of Jingzhao House deliberately picked some and sent them to them.

The fresh jujubes are crunchy and sweet to eat. Xiao Xixi can't stop after eating one after another. He already has a small pile of jujube pits on hand.

Seeing how she was eating with relish, she seemed to have forgotten that terrible nightmare.

Luo Qinghan asked, "Would you like to see what happened to Zhu Quankun?"

Xiao Xixi refused without hesitation: "The picture must be very bloody and violent. Don't watch it if you are a concubine, it will affect your appetite."

Luo Qinghan didn't force her, he called Shang Kui in.

"You go to General Zhongwu's Mansion and bring General Xiao and Mrs. Xiao here."

"Here!"

Shang Kui strode out.

Xiao Xixi asked curiously, "Why does Your Highness want to see the parents of the concubine?"

Luo Qinghan said lightly: "They are also witnesses in this case, and they need to be asked to record their confessions."

Xiao Xixi didn't think much, and continued to bury her head in eating her own dates.

Luo Qinghan walked over and took away the fruit plate with dates in front of her.

Xiao Xixi quit immediately.

"Your Highness, what are you doing? The concubine hasn't finished eating yet!"

Luo Qinghan looked at her with drooping eyes: "It's not good to eat too many dates, it will cause diarrhea."

Xiao Xixi argued: "The concubine is strong and strong, and nothing will happen."

Luo Qinghan ignored her and had the fruit plate taken away.

Without food, Xiao Xixi seems to have lost his soul.

She suffered at a speed visible to the naked eye and turned into a dry salted fish.
