"Nonsense!"

Looking at the knife handed over, Cao Guan knocked it away: "I know very well what kind of character Xuan Fei is. She will never do such a thing. There must be a misunderstanding here!"

After hearing about his daughter's accident, he immediately rushed home without stopping.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he saw an aggressive scene.

Use family law?

Even if he, the leader of the clan, is not here, who dares to touch the family law?

"Third uncle, you know people but not their hearts. Character is the most worthless thing."

Cao Yiming shook his head and followed: "The treasure house was stolen, and only you and your daughter have the key. If it wasn't Concubine Cao Xuan who did it, could it be... you?"

"presumptuous!"

Cao Guan glared and shouted: "As the leader of the clan, I am upright and aboveboard. I will never do anything that harms the interests of the family!"

"That's strange. It's not you, and it's not Concubine Cao Xuan. Could it be that she has seen a ghost?" Cao Yiming said angrily.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look suspicious.

Although Cao Guan is usually selfless, it does not mean that Concubine Cao Xuan is innocent.

When it comes to the safety of my daughter, no matter how upright a person is, no one can be fair and just.

"Third brother, the theft of the treasure house is no small matter. Someone must be responsible for this matter, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public!" Cao Jun said seriously.

"Lao San, I know you feel sorry for your daughter, but when it comes to the prosperity and decline of the family, you must not act emotionally!" Cao Biao said with a cold face.

"That's right! The foundation of our ancestors cannot be destroyed. Concubine Cao Xuan has committed suicide and colluded internally and externally. She must be severely punished!"

At this moment, many people started shouting.

Everyone has a share in the property in the treasure house, and now that it has been looted, they are naturally not angry.

"Everyone, please be patient!"

Cao Guan raised his hand and pressed down: "The matter has not been investigated clearly, so we cannot make a conclusion."

"Uncle Third, the treasure house can't be opened without a key. I want to ask, where is your key?" Cao Yiming said suddenly.

"At this."

Cao Guan took a pocket watch from his neck, opened the cover and took a look. There was a golden key with a special structure hidden inside.

Because this item was so important, he always carried it with him.

"Concubine Cao Xuan, where is your key?"

Cao Yiming turned around and asked again.

"Of course I do too!"

Concubine Cao Xuan said, reaching out to touch her waist.

But soon, her expression changed.

The key hidden in the waist disappeared at some point!

"What? Can't find it?"

Cao Yiming seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"It should be in my room. I'll go back and look for it."

Concubine Cao Xuan was about to go out, but Cao Yiming reached out to stop her: "No need to look for it, your key is here!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his hand, and a golden key appeared between his fingers.

Its structure, texture, and carvings are exactly the same as those in Cao Guan's hands.

"Ok?"

Concubine Cao Xuan frowned: "How come my key is in your hand?"

"That's something you have to ask yourself."

Cao Yiming sneered: "After the treasure house was stolen, I immediately gathered people to arrest the criminals. I got this from a traitor."

"Come here, escort that traitor in!" Cao Zhiyuan shouted.

Soon, two Cao family guards dragged in a man covered in bruises.

This person was a steward under Concubine Cao Xuan.
