Chapter 158 Kill that beast
Seeing the guards of the second prince rushing towards Gong Tong, the guards in royal robes were stunned for a moment, and then they also quickly chased in that direction.
The second prince has always been at odds with Ning Chuyi. He will appear in the workshop today. His main purpose is to wait to see Ning Chuyi's black gauze hat fall to the ground.
Those royal guards did not believe that the second prince would be so kind and asked the guards to help them.
Everyone intuitively felt that something was wrong with Gongtong.
When the two guards of the second prince saw the Jinyi guards chasing after them, they looked at each other. One of the guards suddenly slipped and knocked his companion.
The guard who was hit rushed towards the two big barrels in panic.
Bang bang!
Seeing the two barrels rolling towards the **** next to them, the two guards' eyes flashed with success.
There happens to be a lotus lake at the bottom of the slope. As long as the two buckets roll into the lake, they can take advantage of the chaos and hide the contents in the buckets in the mud.
“Smash the respectful bucket.” Ling Chu could tell the intention of the two guards at a glance.
With Ning Chuyi's ability, he naturally guessed the purpose of the guards. When Ling Chu shouted to smash the respectful bucket, he shouted, "Yin Sha."
As soon as Ning Chuyi finished speaking, Yin Sha suddenly appeared like a ghost.
The expressions of the two guards changed, and they no longer pretended to be panicked. They made a quick move and planned to push Gong Tong into the lake before Yin Sha made a move.
Just when they were about to succeed, the long sword in Yin Sha's hand moved in mid-air.
A sword energy flashing with cold light instantly slashed straight in Gong Tong's direction.
The two Gongtong fell apart instantly.
The two guards glared at Yin Sha fiercely. If he hadn't been unable to defeat him, the two guards would have killed him. They almost pushed Gong Tong into the lake, but they were destroyed by this evil star.
Yin Sha glanced sideways at the two of them, ignored them, and stood guard by the two barrels with his long sword in his arms.
The expressions on the faces of those Jin Yiwei when they saw the jade articles scattered on the **** were really hard to describe.
Who would have thought that something they couldn't find would be hidden in the mezzanine of Gongtong!
Eunuch Liu was so happy that he almost cried with joy when he saw these jade articles that had been dropped. After finding something, I finally don't have to worry about my head moving.
After feeling happy, he remembered the sword that Yin Sha had just struck, and hurriedly rushed over to check.
Fortunately, Yin Sha had a measured strike. Although the two gong barrels were chopped into pieces with that sword, the jade hidden inside was not damaged at all.
Eunuch Liu and all the royal guards were very happy when the jade was found. However, the second prince was so angry that he glared at the two guards.
It's a rice bucket, and a little thing is not good at all things.
If there weren't so many people present, the second prince would have wanted to kill the deputy steward Gong Ping and hide the jade in Gongtong. Is this the foolproof method he said?
Gong Ping felt miserable in his heart.
Jinxiu Yuzhen is a royal workshop. No matter it is day or night, there are guards guarding the door. Anyone who enters or exits the workshop must be searched.
In order to smuggle the jade out of the workshop, Gong Ping secretly found someone to customize two large gong buckets. After unpacking the jade, he hid it in the mezzanine of the gong bucket without anyone noticing.
When the guards checked, they would only search the person holding the night incense, but they would not check the two barrels of night incense.
If Lao Chentou, who pulled Yexiang, hadn't suddenly fallen ill, he would have secretly transported this batch of jade articles.
Although Eunuch Liu was happy to find the jade, he knew that if the person behind it was not found, there was no guarantee that this kind of thing would not happen again in the future. "Who secretly obtained the key to the warehouse? Considering that all the jades have been recovered, if we tell the truth, the Zajia family will definitely ask the emperor to be lenient and give him a lenient sentence. But if we don't tell the truth, we will be killed. Come to the ground!"
The second prince secretly winked at the deputy steward.
Gong Ping was immediately filled with indignation and said, "Eunuch Liu, these jade articles must have been exchanged by Xie Yidao, and then hidden in Gong barrels to be smuggled out."
Chen Yi, the head manager of the workshop, frowned and said, "Impossible. That man Xie Yidao is very honest. How dare he be so bold as to exchange the jade article? This is a serious crime of beheading."
Gong Ping said plausibly, "How is it impossible? Don't you think that the knife work on that batch of shoddy jade is very similar to that of Xie Yidao?"
The master in the workshop originally thought that those jade articles could not have been dropped by Xie Yidao, but now after hearing Gong Ping's words, he couldn't help but become suspicious.
If you look carefully at those shoddy jades, the carvings are indeed similar to those of Xie Yidao.
As soon as Gong Ping saw the expressions of those masters, he knew that they were beginning to doubt Xie Yidao, so he hurriedly added fuel to the fire, "Don't forget, Xie Yidao is not only the most powerful carver in our workshop, but his knife skills are also recognized fastest.
He must have carved the jade in secret, then secretly obtained the key to the warehouse, switched the batch of jade that everyone carved, and then hid it in the pail.
Eunuch Liu, hurry up and send someone to capture Xie Yidao. If it's too late, it will be too late. A few days ago, he said that he received a letter from home that his mother was seriously ill and wanted to take leave and go home to take care of her.
Now it seems that he must have received some news and was worried about what would happen, so he found an excuse to run away secretly. "
Seeing that what Gong Ping said was true, Eunuch Liu also began to doubt. Could it be that Xie Yidao really did this?
Gong Ping was very proud of his sudden idea. Xie Yidao was dead, so he blamed everything on him, but now there is no proof.
The jade was found, which helped Ning Chuyi keep his official position, and Ling Chu also breathed a sigh of relief. But she can't go back now. She came here for merit.
Lingchu's eyes fell firmly on Gong Ping. Not only was the steward's hall darkened, but the rotten corpse aura on his body was stronger than that on Wei Feng.
Raise your hand and make a seal, then touch it on your eyes to open your Yin and Yang eyes.
The scene in front of him changed. Ling Chu saw a muddy figure holding a carving knife and slashing at Gong Ping crazily.
Ling Chu shook his head and said to the puppet soul, "You can't kill him like this, do you need my help?"
If she guessed correctly, this person was probably Xie Yidao.
The puppet soul suddenly heard someone talking to him. He stopped and looked at Ling Chu in shock, "Miss, can you see me?" Thinking of what she just said, the puppet soul looked excited, "Girl, you can really help me. ?"
Lingchu nodded, "Yes, it's possible, but I have to pay."
“I can give you whatever the girl wants. I just ask the girl to help kill that beast in Gong Ping.”
“I can't help you kill someone, but I can help you expose his crime.”
Although this girl couldn't help him kill Gong Ping, as long as what Gong Ping did was exposed, he would not be able to escape death.
The puppet soul was afraid that he would not agree. If the girl in front of him stopped helping him, where could he find someone who could see and be willing to help him? He nodded in a hurry.
