"Since you are afraid, forget it... Oh! Speaking of Wuyou Cave, I was just about to tell you that Wang Dong was kidnapped to Wuyou Cave last night." Zhang Shixun seemed to be nonchalant and spoke lightly.
"Ah! You...your cousin was kidnapped?" Gao Yanei was shocked.
"yes."
"Could it be that they know you have treasures and want to blackmail you?"
"I suspect someone paid them to kill us brothers."
"Do you two brothers have enemies?"
Zhang Shixun shook his head. "No, we just returned to Tokyo. How could we have any enemies? If there were any, Wang Husun would barely be considered one."
"Wang Husun?" Gao Yanei rolled his eyes and shook his head. "It's not that serious, is it? It's just a few days in jail. Is it really necessary to hire someone to kill him?"
"I'm just suspicious, I don't have any evidence, but I haven't offended anyone except him."
"I still think it's a robbery." Gao Yanei said firmly, "Perhaps the thieves in Wuyou Cave knew that you had treasures and had evil intentions."
"Except you and He Ji, no one else has seen the treasure."
"No! That day at Fanlou, two female waitresses also saw it, as well as the treasure appraiser Yin. Now, there are even more people who have seen it. In order to buy a farm for you, Lao He and I have been looking for people with hairpins these days. I can't count the number of people who have seen the treasure."
"So, you think they kidnapped Wang Dong for money, rather than for someone to hire someone to kill him?"
Gao Yanei nodded.
Zhang Shixun smiled and said nothing.
Gao Yanei asked, "Did you go to Kaifeng Prefecture to report to the authorities?"
Zhang Shixun said, "The people from Wuyou Cave had been keeping an eye on my house. They tried to kill me when I was out, but I threw two of them into the Bian River. I captured the remaining two and sent them to Kaifeng Prefecture."
"If you do this, aren't you afraid your cousin will be killed?" Before Zhang Shixun could reply, Gao Yanei slapped his head, suddenly realizing, "I see. You're just hoping someone will kill your cousin for you. That way, all the treasures will be yours alone... Haha! Brilliant!"
Zhang Shixun glared at him and said, "You are judging others by your own standards."
"That……"
"Let me tell you, Wang Dong escaped from Wuyou Cave while they were off guard."
Gao Yanei was surprised: "With your cousin's appearance, how could he escape from Wuyou Cave?"
"Although he was weak and frail, he had a loyal servant who helped him escape."
"Hey! That servant is really capable."
Zhang Shixun shook his head. "The servants didn't have much skill, just some brute strength. They were able to escape by sheer luck. As you said, Wang Dong's harmless appearance was very deceptive. The thieves in Wuyou Cave were too careless and relaxed their supervision, which gave Wang Dong an opportunity to take advantage."
"It's really lucky."
As they were talking, the two of them had already reached the Imperial Street.
The Imperial Street was bustling with people, filled with flowers, and filled with the sounds of flutes and drums. The air was filled with romance and liveliness.
The streets are lined with stalls selling a wide variety of goods. The sounds of hawking, shouting, and laughter mix together, making it very lively.
The two of them looked around as they walked. After all, coming from the future, everything here was new to Zhang Shixun.
Gao Yanei's eyes were very dishonest. He kept looking at the women in the crowd, who would not normally appear in his sight.
Zhang Shixun looked ahead at the tall gatehouse of the Xuande Tower and asked, "Young Master, is General Gao probably in there drinking and listening to music right now?"
Gao Yanei looked up at the sky and said, "The moon has risen. They must be enjoying the moon while drinking and having fun."
"Madam Ding and Madam Li are also in the palace today." Zhang Shixun said casually.
