Chapter 233 Hou Junji visited Pushan Mansion at night.

It was night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

The mansions of princes and nobles are almost all concentrated together, a bit similar to the wealthy areas in later generations.

Duke Pushan was a hereditary title. Although Li Mi is not doing well now, it was only passed down to his generation and declined.

The mansion of Pushan Gong is still located in this "rich area" of the Great Sui Dynasty, which is quite close to the center. Each of them is a deep courtyard.

As the saying goes, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. This Pushan Gong Mansion is also a large mansion with high bluestone walls, red bricks and green tiles. There are four big words "Pushan Gong Mansion" with flying dragons and phoenixes dancing on the door.

Since Li Mi is not very high in the court and has no real power, he does not raise many people in his mansion. The maids, gatekeepers, servants, and chefs together have only twenty or thirty people.

That's right, the family has twenty or thirty servants and maids' family. For Li Mi, this is already a loss of family power.

In Pushan Duke's Mansion, after Li Mi burned all the letters and accounts of the exchanges with King Yang Liang of Han, the gold, silver and jewelry obtained from the King of Han sank into the well, and his heart became much more stable.

"Dang!Dang!Dang!"

"The weather is dry, be careful of the candle." The anti-gunman beat the gong and shouted around the streets. The three gongs sounded, which meant that it was already the third day of the day.

The third update is when a person is most mentally exhausted, and it is also when a person is most sweet in his sleep. At this time, even a night-walking creature like the guest has already yawned for the sky, let alone a person in his sleep.

Hou Junji was wearing a black night clothes, and his black veil mask quietly approached the wall courtyard of Pushan Gong Mansion.

"Teng!Teng!Teng!"

Hou Junji jumped into the courtyard three times and landed in the courtyard. Li Mi's mansion did not provide too many servants to protect the courtyard, so the defense in the mansion was not strict.

Hou Junji tiptoed outside the bedroom, and after making a scent of incense make Li Mi faint, he carefully entered the room and then searched one by one in the room.

However, after rummaging through the boxes and cabinets, Hou Junji did not find anything useful in Li Mi's bedroom.

After Hou Junji came out of Li Mi's bedroom, he quietly came to Li Mi's study again. Originally, Li Mi's letters, gold, silver and jewelry were hidden in the secret room of the study.

However, these things have been dealt with by Li Mi. Hou Junji searched in the study for a long time. Although he found the secret room, the secret room was empty and he did not find anything useful.

"etc!"

"No!" Hou Junji was about to leave this secret room, and found a clue.

The place where Li Mi originally placed the box, there was a box seal pressed out by the box. The secret room was pitch black, and Hou Junji could not do anything at first. When he went out, he accidentally shone the candle in his hand on the ground and then realized.

Hou Junji is a man who is walking around the night. Since he has found the clues, he must naturally investigate them carefully and carefully.

"There is no dust! It means that the box should have been carried away just now." Hou Junji touched the ground with his hand and found that there was no dust on his hands.

Hou Junji judged that the box should have been transferred away today, but this day, Hou Junji has been staying outside and has not seen Pushan Gong Mansion transporting things outside. In this way, the box must still be in the mansion.

Suddenly, Hou Junji's goal was to find boxes. Since Li Mi hid these boxes, there must be something wrong with these boxes.

After having a goal, Hou Junji began to search for boxes one by one room. Even the servants and maids were not spared. All these servants and maids were stunned by Hou Junji's incense and then searched carefully.

All the rooms were searched, but Hou Junji never found the boxes he thought were in trouble. In the end, Hou Junji searched for even the woodshed and kitchen, but never found them.

Not to mention woodwood, kitchen and other places, even the cesspool in the thatched ward, Hou Junji poked it several times with a stick, trying to see what could be found in the wardpool.

“嘘!嘘!嘘!”

Hou Junji spent most of the time in Pushan Duke's Mansion, but he couldn't find anything. At this moment, he suddenly felt a little anxious to pee, so he simply took out his own guy and started to release water in the yard.

Anyway, the maids and servants of the Pushan Duke Mansion were now stunned by Hou Junji's incense and could not wake up until dawn, so Hou Junji had no taboos.

Halfway through the urination, Hou Junji discovered something abnormal. The grass in the yard seemed to be a little wrong. There were traces of back pressure on the grass between a distance.

Didn’t Li Mi let his trusted subordinates sink all the boxes of gold, silver and jewelry into the well? The distance from Li Mi’s study to this well is not in.

During the day, in order to take a shortcut, these servants carrying boxes protected the yard, but did not take the paved stone road, but walked over the grass. I don’t know if these boxes were too heavy or the people carrying boxes were useless.

He took a long journey and put down the box and rested for a while. The box happened to have some traces on the grass.

These traces were not easy to find, but it seems that when Hou Junji urinated, he happened to see these traces pressed out of the box.

If others saw these traces, they might not be interested again, but Hou Junji was a cautious person. In his mind, he compared the box seals in the secret room and immediately knew that this must have been pressed out of the same box.

Hou Junji looked forward along the box seal, and after a while, he came to the well. Hou Junji held the candlelight in his hand and looked at the well carefully.

The well was dark. Hou Jun gathered this small candlelight, so how could he illuminate the deep well? It seemed that there was nothing besides water in this well.

Suddenly, Hou Junji found some abnormalities at the wellhead, and some red paint was scratched on the stone wall at the wellhead.

"It's paint applied to the wood. It seems that these boxes must be in the well." Hou Junji rubbed the wood paint on the stone wall at the wellhead with his hand and said with great confidence.

Thinking of this, Hou Junji extinguished the candle in his hand, then took off the rope with a wooden barrel tied to the wellhead, tied it to himself, and then scratched it down from the well wall bit by bit.

Not long after, Hou Junji slid into the well water, which was cold. Hou Junji didn't care about so much, and a fierce man sneaked into the well.

Sure enough, without Hou Junji's expectations, there were seven or eight boxes in the bottom of the well. It would be impossible for Hou Junji to get these boxes away by himself. Therefore, Hou Junji did not act rashly, just took some things from these boxes and then climbed out of the well.
