Chapter 840： Looking for (one more)

Xia Hourong looked stunned:

"what?"

He hurriedly glanced at the black gas wooden box, frowned, and categorically denied:

"This is absolutely impossible! I have been keeping this thing carefully, no one has ever touched it!"

Jiang Yucheng's expression is cold, and his whole body is cold:

"The seal on this was obviously moved. I personally gave this thing to you at the beginning. What was it like at the time, don't I know?"

Xia Hourong choked.

"What about the key?"

Jiang Yucheng stretched out his hand.

Xia Hourong was also very dissatisfied, so he threw the key over.

His face is not very pretty.

"Lord, since I promised to return this thing to you, I will never break my promise. You want to see it, just watch it!"

At the beginning, Jiang Yucheng personally agreed to give him this Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill as a reward.

But now he was asked to go back before he could use it.

Xia Hourong was quite dissatisfied with Jiang Yu Cheng.

So speaking at this time is also very rude.

Jiang Yucheng took the key, ignoring him, and opened the black lacquered wooden box.

Click.

The wooden box opened!

——Empty!

Jiang Yucheng's expression turned gloomy for an instant, he sneered and looked at Xia Hourong.

"Master Xiahou, what do you say?"

Xia Hourong widened his eyes in shock and stared at the empty wooden box.

"How is it possible? How is this possible!? I have always kept it in good care! How could it be gone!"

Jiang Yucheng threw the black lacquered wooden box in front of Xia Hourong and smashed it to the ground with a muffled noise.

"Whether it's true or not, see for yourself!"

Xia Hourong didn't care about all that, so he picked up the black lacquered wooden box on the ground and checked it carefully.

When he looked around and made sure that there was nothing inside, his face paled with a "swish", and fine beads of perspiration ooze out quickly on his forehead, and his lips trembled slightly.

The black lacquered wooden box in his hand instantly became a hot potato!

Xia Hourong did not take it, nor did he throw it away, the expression on his face changed, it was so exciting!

Jiang Yucheng stared at him so coldly with cold eyes.

For a moment, Xia Hourong seemed to finally react, and hurriedly raised his head:

"I don't know! I really don't know!"

Since getting this thing, he has been cautiously keeping it, but how could it suddenly disappear! ?

Jiang Yucheng twitched the corners of his mouth without any smile.

"Then you mean, the stuff in it ran away by yourself?"

Xia Hourong began to quickly recall, and countless pictures flashed in his mind.

"no no..."

He personally went to the study to take out this thing today. There was no abnormality in the whole process, and there was no trace of being touched at all!

In other words, the other party must have taken this thing away quietly!

Can do this...

and many more!

Xia Hourong's face suddenly changed!

There are only a handful of people who know all these things so well!

Especially, know how to find this thing and take it away...

"Look at Master Xiahou already knowing who did it?"

Jiang Yucheng spoke lightly, his eyes sarcastically.

Xia Hourong's lips moved, and he murmured in disbelief:

"Impossible...impossible..."

"I’ve always trusted Master Xiahou’s character. This time, it’s because you’re unfavorable to guard. As long as you can find people within a day and bring back the Jiuxiao Yuandan in its entirety, this matter With this result. I assume it has never happened, how?"

Jiang Yucheng lowered his eyes, turned the finger in his hand, and slowly said:

"As for the people who did this thing, I will trouble Master Xiahou to deal with it together. After all, the less people know about this kind of thing, the better. I am doing this for the sake of your reputation, don't you think?"

He thinks he has handled it this way, already very kind.

But this was undoubtedly an extremely embarrassing thing to Xia Hourong.

Because-the person who did it is most likely his second son Xiahou Ting'an!

Xia Hourong was silent for a long time before swallowing hard and saying:

"...Then...that person...if he is found, can the eldest son keep him alive?"

Jiang Yucheng raised his eyes slightly and glanced at him faintly.

Seeing Xia Hourong's nervous look, he suddenly laughed.

"It seems that this young man guessed well, and it was really done by Xiahou Ting'an. Unexpectedly, his courage was getting bigger and he could even do such things."

Xia Hourong's hands trembled:

"This... this matter has not been finalized, maybe it will be someone else... You know, he was just beaten out of the house by me some time ago, and now I am afraid that the injury has not fully recovered, how could it be. .."

His voice is getting smaller and smaller.

To be honest, he didn't even believe this.

Can sneak into Xiahou Mansion smoothly, pass the barrier outside the study quietly, enter it, find the key smoothly to open the wooden box, and finally take the things away...

Except for Xia Hourong himself, only Xiahou Ting'an can crack this layer of defense!

Jiang Yucheng looked at Xia Hourong like a joke.

"It's really pitiful for the parents of the world. Master Xiahou is here to intercede for him, trying to keep him anyway, but unfortunately, he may not put your father in his eyes. However, he has concerns about you and the entire Xiahou Mansion. , It is absolutely impossible to do such a thing."

Jiang Yucheng's words were like a knife, piercing Xia Hourong's heart all at once.

He closed his eyes, suppressed the emotions in his heart, and arched his hands:

"Don't worry, I will send the things back intact! If it really was that Nizi made it... I hope that I will take care of my face and let him go this time!"

Xia Hourong almost never used such a humble tone to beg.

Even in order to get that Jiuxiao Huiyuan Pill, he had discussions with Jiang Yucheng.

This begging is the first time.

Jiang Yucheng paused for a long time, and finally nodded.

"it is good."

...

After Xia Hourong left, he quickly left with Xiahou Yushu and others.

Except for him and Jiang Yucheng, no one knew what the two of them said in the study.

Almost everyone thinks that all matters of the marriage are going on smoothly, and only waiting for the completion of the big marriage, the two big families can join forces!

After returning to the mansion, Xia Hourong immediately ordered to send someone out to find Xiahou Ting'an back.

The whole Xiahou Mansion was very surprised up and down.

It didn't take long to fight, why did you find someone back?

But... after all, it is his own biological son, or the one he loves most for so many years, and it is normal to be unwilling.

Soon news came back, saying that Xiahou Ting'an has been living with the girl in the Chunfeng Tower.

When Xia Hourong heard this, he was not angry again, and went immediately personally!
