Chapter 124 If I lost something, I must find it myself!

Originally, after Shao Zimu got married, Shao Zixiao and Tuoba Yi should return to the palace.

But now that something like this happened in Shaofu, Tuoba Yi saw that Shao Zixiao had no intention of going back to the palace at all, as a "wife slave", he naturally didn't dare to mention it.

Tuobayi was stunned when he learned that Shao Zimu was going to reconcile with Cui Zhirong and "marry" Shen Jing.

This was too smooth... so smooth that it was unbelievable!

Looking at Shao Zixiao again, he is even more frowning now than he was a few days ago.

"Zi Xiao, your brother got his wish, shouldn't you be happy?"

"Why are you so happy? Elder brother actually wants to move to Limeng Villa. How can I rest assured that Daddy is at home alone?"

"Then... why don't you take him to live in the palace?"

"No, Dad can't possibly be willing to live in the palace."

"Zixiao, don't worry so much. Isn't there servants like housekeepers in the prime minister's mansion? With them around, the prime minister will be fine."

"After all, they can't replace me and my brother..."

"Then when you are free, you can go home and have a look."

"Really? But I seem to be free every day..."

Shao Zixiao couldn't help laughing at the end, only then did Tuoba Yi realize that he had been teased by him again, and his frown just now was just fake.

"Zi Xiao! You're playing with me again!"

"Husband, don't be angry... I'm just a little bored."

"Humph."

"Good husband, forgive me this time."

"Okay, how dare I not forgive you? But are you really not worried about your father? I'm a little worried when he's at home alone..."

"Daddy has worked hard for the country all his life, and now he has finally retired. He should do what he wants to do instead of worrying about me and my brother."

When Tuoba Yi heard this, he was overjoyed and said:

"So can we go back to the palace now?"

"Of course not. My brother is getting married tomorrow. I will definitely see him before leaving!"

Tuoba Yi was dumbfounded.

"You... haven't you seen it once?"

"But that time, the person he visited was not the person he liked, and the atmosphere was not right. It didn't look like getting married at all, but like going to the battlefield. I was so nervous that I broke out in a cold sweat."

"Okay, then I will accompany my Zixiao and have another wedding wine."

"Don't be so frowning. Boss Shen's Limeng Villa is as rich as a country, and his wedding wine must be delicious. By the way, those big boxes you gave me last time, I can just use them as a 'dowry' for my brother to bring." Go to Limeng Villa. Otherwise, Boss Shen is so rich, I’m afraid that my brother’s heart will be unbalanced..."

"Those things were given to you by me, so naturally they are at your disposal."

So Shao Zixiao called Xin Mi over, gave her the key to the warehouse of the Shao family, and asked her to find a few servants to move out those boxes together.

After Xin Ni went away for a while, she hurried back and said:

"My lord, the slaves searched the warehouse for a long time, but they didn't find a single box."

"What?! This is impossible, I put everything in that warehouse."

Seeing Shao Zixiao's face change, Tuoba Yi hurriedly said:

"Zixiao, don't worry, you can always find such a big box. Besides you, who else has the key to that warehouse, does the Prime Minister's wife have it?"

The first object of suspicion of Tuoba Yi is naturally the wife of the prime minister who is greedy for money.

Unexpectedly, Shaozi Xiao said:

"Nobody has the key to that warehouse except my brother and me."

"Could it be that your elder brother moved to Limeng Villa in advance because he knew that these were all for him?"

"I don't know...I'll ask him when he comes back."

"He and Shen Ji are going to prepare things for the wedding tomorrow, and they will definitely come back very late, so let's go to bed first."

Just as Shao Zixiao finished saying "OK", he heard a lot of commotion outside.

He hurriedly asked Xin Mi to go out to have a look, and Xin Mi came back and told him:

"Master Shao and Boss Shen have just returned, but their expressions are very, very ugly, as if they are going to kill someone..."

Hearing this, Shao Zixiao hurriedly stood up and walked outside, Tuoba Yi had no choice but to follow him.

Shao Zixiao saw his elder brother holding Shen Jing in his arms, and Shen Jing looked very haggard, as if he had suffered some blow.So he asked his brother:

"Brother, what's the matter with you?"

"We just came back from the government."

"Huh? The government?! What happened?"

At this time, Shen Ji said with a crying voice:

"I know your father doesn't like me, but I plan to live with Zimu for the rest of my life, just to make him happy. So I thought, the prime minister is a literati, and there is no literati who won't be bought by Wang Xizhi's words. I remembered that there happened to be a few authentic works of Wang Xizhi in the villa, so I wanted to find them and give them to the Prime Minister. Then I found out that my Limeng Villa was stolen, and there were quite a few things missing.”

"No way?! I heard before that even the most powerful thief would not dare to go to Limeng Villa to steal things."

"That's just the legend of the rivers and lakes. I'm afraid I can't find those things now. Wuwuwu... Those are treasures saved by my ancestors for several generations. I really didn't have the face to meet my ancestors... "

"Boss Shen, don't worry too much about coming here. Since you have reported to the official, there is hope to find it back."

Hearing the words in silence, he shook his head.He knew that it was just Shao Zixiao's words to comfort him.

Seeing the state of the two of them, Shao Zixiao didn't tell them about the dozens of boxes he had lost, but advised them to rest earlier.

After sending Shao Zimu and Shen Ji back to the room, Shao Zixiao fell into deep thought.

"Ayi, do you think these two things seem to be related?"

Tuoba Yi had long felt something strange, but he didn't want Shao Zixiao to think too deeply, so he said with a smile:

"It's all caused by greed for money. How can there be any connection? Zixiao, don't think so much, let's go back and rest too."

"If it's just me who lost those dozens of priceless boxes, then it may be done by people who are greedy for money. But if these two things were done by one person, or a group of people, then the problem is big .Because all these things add up, they are really rich now! If they had some premeditated plans... I dare not think about it."

"Zixiao, are you thinking too deeply? Maybe, it's not that serious."

"I don't know...I'm not qualified to ask about what Boss Shen lost, but I must find it myself for what I lost!"
