Chapter 710

There are two rows of boxes in the warehouse, stacked neatly, and ropes are scattered on the ground. Obviously, they have just been moved in and haven't had time to tidy up. The box is covered with dust. It can be seen that after a long journey, wind and sun, it finally arrived safely.

He Changlong stretched out his hand, made an invitation, smiled and said to Nalan night, "Lord, please."

As a subordinate of Nalan night, Xu Wei stepped forward and said, "Lord, my subordinates and Lord he escorted a total of 56 tin cases back. They were safe all the way and didn't encounter any problems. All seals are available. Please check them."

Since you are here to check, it is natural to open the boxes one by one, check and confirm that there is no leakage or damage, and then transport them into the palace and store them in the imperial warehouse.

Following Nalan to Sifang hall at night, Luo qingluan had the idea of taking a good look at these treasures of Beijun. She once saw a lot of valuable things in the North Vietnamese palace, but she didn't know how much remained after the war. Hearing the speech, she followed Nalan night and stood on the green emerald, as if she could not see the deep sea. Round pearls, round and smooth one by one, are hard to find all over the world. Large pieces of gold and silver ingots are mixed among them, but they are not worth money. There are all kinds of colorful gemstones, just like stars in the night sky... Just this box, I don't know it's worth tens of millions.

He Changlong looked straight. Although he escorted these treasures all the way, he never opened them and didn't know what was inside. Now as soon as he opened it, he stared straight at it and couldn't help breathing heavily: "unexpectedly, so much?"

He murmured, his face eager. He didn't react until a moment later. He quickly restrained his look and said in some embarrassment, "come on, get the list."

A man next to him immediately handed over a thick booklet. He Changlong took it over and turned to the first page. He carefully said to Nalan night: "Lord, this box is all the jewelry of the imperial concubines of the North Vietnamese royal family, and some are gold and silver, which are not valuable."

"How many have you counted?" Nalan said faintly.

He Changlong nodded hurriedly. "Naturally, it has been counted. Before entering the box, it has been counted one by one and recorded in the booklet."

He quickly read it out: "Lord, there are 36 pieces of jade, 28 pieces of jasper and 78 necklaces of different colors and textures in this box. There are 3522 taels of silver and 5800 taels of gold. They are stacked together only because they are scattered and broken things. Lord, do you want the lower official to send someone to count them one by one?"

Nalan night said with a voice: "since it is handover, it is also necessary to put it into storage. Naturally, it is necessary to count."

He Changlong immediately said, "didn't you hear what the LORD said? Please call a few people to count all the things in this box and figure out the value. There must be no mistake!"

"Yes, my Lord." With that, the two servants of the Sifang Pavilion had a confidant of he Changlong and immediately came forward to count the items in this box.

Luo qingluan is not interested in anything but jewelry. Although she usually buys less, she never likes it. Seeing that the second box was opened again, curious, she was not in the mood to take care of the counting. She immediately looked into the second box.

Who knows, before the box was opened, I heard a Scream: "what! No, my God... Sir, look!"

A cry of surprise came. Luo qingluan subconsciously turned his head and saw two four-way officers who counted the items fall to the ground, with a frightened face, and there was an extra stone in the box in front of them.

How strange! Luo qingluan immediately frowned. How could there be a stone in the box?

Didn't she see all the gold, silver, jewelry and other items just now? Where did this stone come from?

Suddenly, her mind moved, she jumped up unconsciously, walked forward two steps, and reached out to remove the jewelry on her face. Sure enough, under these jewels, there are all big stones.

Apart from a thin layer of jewelry on the top, three-quarters of the whole box is a piece of stone!

He Changlong was stunned. His eyes stared wide and couldn't believe it: "how could this happen?"

Xu Wei on one side also saw it. His face sank and his face was iron green. He didn't believe it and seemed to be stunned on the spot. But for a moment, he reacted and strode over to open the second box.

Then he heard his shocked voice: "Lord, no, look in this box..."

Without finishing his words, he went to the third box again. He didn't use the key at all. He waved a knife and cut it directly. With a slap, the iron lock was cut off and fell to the ground. He lifted the box again, reached in and pulled it, and the whole man came out in a cold sweat.

Stone! Or stone!

By this time, even Luo qingluan felt that the matter was serious.

When all the fifty-six boxes were opened, all the people in the warehouse felt a heavy depression. The mountain rain was coming. I couldn't believe that such a thing would happen.

"How did this happen? How did it happen?"

He Changlong was at a loss. Sweating like rain, he paced back and forth around these dozens of boxes. Like ants on a hot pot, he almost fainted. "It's gone, it's gone! God, the lower officer dared to guarantee with his life that there was absolutely no mistake. How could he suddenly... What's going on?"

He rushed to Nalan night and was very anxious: "Lord, Lord, I really don't know what's going on! Before I escorted these things, I was still fine and there was no accident along the way, but now... It's really none of my business."

With a cold look in his eyes, Nalan night stood in front of him with her negative hand. Her eyes were nailed to his face like a blade, but she didn't speak, as if she wanted to see through her whole person.

Where can you bear such eyes?

He Changlong fell to his knees with a thump and trembled, "Lord, it's really none of your business!"

He seemed to think of something. He turned his head and stared at Xu Wei's face: "Lord Xu, my servant transported these North Vietnamese treasures to the capital along the way. Except for the servants, I can only have contact with Lord Xu..."

Before he finished, Nalan said coldly, "Lord he, do you mean there is a problem with the king's people?"

"I dare not, I dare not!"

He Changlong just finished and hurriedly said, "however, in addition to serving as an official, only the people led by Lord Xu are responsible for picking up along the way..." his words didn't finish, but the meaning was very clear. Since he didn't steal it, it's Xu Wei of the dark night hall!

Xu Wei knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice, "my Lord, my subordinates dare to guarantee their lives. My subordinates and brothers have never touched these North Vietnamese treasures. Please see."

He Changlong pointed to Xu Wei and said angrily, "Lord Xu, if it weren't for you, would it be an official?"

Xu Wei gave him a cold look: "I didn't say that. Only Lord he knows what's going on. After all, when I was responsible for receiving, I didn't know what was in these boxes, and the seals were intact."

"Enough, don't argue!" Nalan drank fiercely at night, and both sides were silent immediately.

The dead silence echoed in the warehouse. Everyone looked at each other and looked at the boxes of exchanged goods, feeling depressed. Although not all of them have been replaced, the treasures originally worth millions are now afraid that one out of ten will not be saved.

Who should bear this responsibility?

From the first time she saw the accident, Luo qingluan was silent.

If it had nothing to do with the dark night hall, she would not care as much as she does now. But when it comes to the dark night hall, it is related to Nalan night. If it is finally found that the person who replaced these treasures is from the dark night hall, I'm afraid it will immediately push Nalan night to the forefront of the storm.

Luo qingluan didn't expect that she was just following Nalan night to feast her eyes and see something strange, but such a thing happened.

Since Naran night captured North Vietnam and expanded the territory of Western Chu, fame has reached its peak. Some people even know only the king of Chu and not the Nangong Qing of Western Chu emperor. Many times someone whispered to Nangong Qing, suggesting that Nalan night had made great achievements and intended to rebel and do what Nangong Chen, the next five prince, had done.

Although empress dowager Wang and Nangong Qing now believe in Nalan night, if this matter is related to the dark night hall, it is bound to accelerate the spread of rumors and even affect Nalan night's innocence.

However, the current situation seems that this is also a good thing, which is better than what we found when we were still in the dark and finally sent to the imperial treasury for handover. Luo qingluan thought more and more seriously. He must find out as soon as possible.

The treasures in fifty-six boxes disappeared when the seals were intact and the keys were complete. Now the two sides have their own opinions. One is the escort team from Beijun, the other is the people from the dark night hall, and Nangong QingQin orders, and Nalan night sends a pick-up. It is reasonable that no one will have a problem, nor will they not understand the consequences of self-theft.

However, such things still happen, and the problems are thought-provoking.

With a heavy heart and a mess in his mind, Xu Wei didn't know what to explain. He just knelt on the ground and bowed his head and hugged his fist: "Lord, subordinates dare to guarantee their lives. Subordinates and brothers absolutely don't steal from themselves. If they lie, it's up to the Lord."

He Changlong knelt on the ground and looked like he was going to cry: "but, my Lord, I have never done such a thing. What should I do? If your majesty knows, how should I explain?"

Luo qingluan gently pulled lanaran night's sleeve robe and whispered, "Nalan night, block the news first. No one can leak it. Check it slowly."
