Facing Qin Mingluo's cold questioning, Concubine Meng was speechless and subconsciously touched the top of her head with her palms.

Looking in the direction of the hand, a fine and simple carved hairpin suddenly came into view. The workmanship of this hairpin did not look like ordinary things.

"This hairpin looks quite strange." Qin Mingluo pulled it out easily, took the hairpin from Concubine Meng's head, and put it in the palm of his hand to examine it carefully.

After observing for a long time, he asked: "Where did you get it?"

Concubine Meng was frightened: "I bought this hairpin from the market in the city. I saw that the style of the hairpin was very beautiful, so I put it on my head."

There is nothing wrong with this sentence. At first glance, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. However, Concubine Meng still thought too simply, and Qin Mingluo was not easy to fool.

He is not an ignorant person. The carving and texture of this hairpin are not like ordinary styles bought in the market, but rather like ancient antiques.

The surface pattern of the hairpin is also very finely carved. Qin Mingluo can feel the weight of history when he touches it in the palm of his hand.

"Butler," Qin Mingluo ordered, "Go in and search!" Following Qin Mingluo's order, the butler also took the order and led a group of people into the hospital to search.

In the end, it lived up to expectations. They found many boxes with dark red carvings. They opened the boxes one by one to reveal the contents, which almost blinded everyone.

Qin Mingluo was also surprised. As the owner of this place, why didn't he know that his Prince's Mansion contained so many priceless treasures?

And there are so many treasure chests, each of which is quite substantial.

Even the total contents of these boxes, it is no exaggeration to say, are only a lot more than the warehouse of his Prince's Mansion. These are obviously not the meng side concubine or a brothel girl.

"Meng'er", Qin Mingluo stared at Concubine Meng with a strange look, which made her heart tremble: "Why didn't you tell me that there are so many treasures in this yard?"

"Your Highness, Your Highness..." Concubine Meng was stumbling on her lips and couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time. All she could see was embarrassment and unwillingness on her face.

Damn it, how come all these have been uncovered! I just found out a few days ago that it was going to be confiscated before I could cash it out? I couldn’t bear to admit it, because I obviously discovered this first.

In fact, Qin Mingluo knew it well without Meng Concubine opening her mouth.

"Could these be that woman's...dowry?"

nonsense!

The box is tied with big red flowers that are only used when getting married.

There is also the word "囍" shining brightly on the box. What else can it be if it is not a dowry?

Reminiscent of the previous owner of Furong Garden, and recalling the grand occasion when Prime Minister Li's only daughter got married. Presumably, these were left behind by the former crown princess.

When Prime Minister Li's beloved daughter gets married, a dowry is naturally indispensable.

However, the richness of this dowry really exceeded Qin Mingluo's imagination.

Could it be that Prime Minister Li had anticipated that he was destined not to live long, so he moved out all the inventory in his house and gave his daughter as a dowry?

The dowry is a woman's private property, so the housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion never thought of putting the dowry into the treasury, so there was a delay.

Of course, the former princess also thought about using the dowry to make her life easier, but the palace always acted based on the master's face, and no one dared to go against it.

Therefore, the small part of the dowry given out is almost in vain. The former Crown Princess slowly came to her senses and stopped forcing anything else.

Therefore, after her death, the dowry also remained.

"Meng'er, if I guess correctly, the hairpin you are wearing on your head and the cloth you secretly transported into the house not long ago were all exchanged for these things, right?"
