Chapter 102 People’s hearts are complicated, you still have to practice
Since the soldiers want to search, let them search.
If you can find out, Xiangying has their last name.
She took the children out, and many exiled prisoners were driven out and gathered nearby.
Xiangying hugged Xiang Xiuxiu, stood in front of the crowd, and yawned.
All the female relatives gathered behind her, watching warily at the soldiers who were searching everywhere.
The pot they used to eat was thrown on the ground, and the tent cloth they finally got was trampled into black mud.
Xie Chen, as well as the guards and supervisors, and a military advisor sent by the deputy general stood aside and stared with serious faces.
Ke Jianjun broke his hand tendon and was still recuperating in the camp, so he didn't come over for the time being.
After searching the tent, the soldiers reported: "Nothing was found."
The military advisor narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Xiang Ying and a group of female relatives.
"They haven't been searched yet. If one of them has a little hidden on them, that's a lot. They're all stripped naked!"
The soldiers came over immediately, and the skinny monkey looked on anxiously.
He looked at Jie Chen, but he didn't expect that Jie Chen was still standing calmly, with no intention of speaking.
Xiangying blocked his arms to protect the female relatives behind him.
"Our clothes are thin, and you can tell at a glance whether we are hiding anything. You said that you have searched the tent, but you don't know that there are still two places that you have not visited."
The military advisor frowned: "How is it possible? We have searched all the tents around here. What else do you want to quibble with?"
Xiang Ying looked at the guard army and Xie Chen: "Why didn't you check the tent where the inspection army lived? If you took it by your own people, wouldn't it be called stealing?"
The guard supervisor was startled, and his tone pretended to be gentle: "No matter how brave we are, we would not dare to steal the deputy general's things. Besides, there is no place to hide so many jewels."
Xiangying's red lips were cold: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing. If someone steals something and puts the blame on us, wouldn't the deputy general be treated like a monkey?"
The military advisor was the deputy general's confidant, and he actually felt that what Xiang Ying said made sense.
Thinking of the fact that the deputy general usually puts those treasures in the tent when sleeping, and can only fall asleep by looking at them.
If he can really find it, he will have done a great job.
In just a short moment, the military advisor's thoughts turned over and over again, and he had an idea.
He looked at the guards and supervisors: "In this case, let someone go to your camp to conduct a thorough investigation, so that this female prisoner who doesn't know the world will give up."
The Guards and Supervisors handed over their hands: "Of course I am not afraid of investigation and am willing to set an example. My camp can be inspected by the deputy general at will."
The military advisor nodded, turned to look at Xiang Ying, and threatened: "The deputy general issued an order to find the person who stole it and cut him into pieces! Even if he is not found, it must have been stolen by you group of prisoners, and you will not escape punishment."
After saying the harsh words, Xiangying remained expressionless.
The camp of the Guards and Supervisors was right next to it. The military advisor led people to search it. The Guards and Supervisors turned around and expressed their determination:
"Military advisor, remember to dig out the dirt in my tent. I didn't take anything, so I'm not afraid of checking. You're welcome to dig it out!"
However, everyone stared at his back, slightly rounded their eyes, and began to whisper.
Even Jie Chen gradually frowned.
He patted the guard supervisor on the shoulder and lowered his voice: "Where did this thing come from?"
The guard supervisor turned around in confusion: "What?"
"The beads on your back!"
"Back?" The guard supervisor grabbed his back with his backhand and found a handful of beads.
He took it off and saw that it was a long necklace of gold beads, one hundred and eight in total, with Sanskrit prayers engraved on it.
The guard supervisor was stunned and his eyes widened: "This, I didn't take this!"
He had just come out of the camp and was standing here. Who put it on his back?
If the guard supervisor hadn't turned around, no one would have known that there was a string of gold beads attached to his back.
Xiang Ying sneered: "Didn't you say that you didn't steal it? What are these? So many gold beads, they are very expensive, are they the heirlooms of the Guards and Supervisors?" Qi Fengyi raised his voice and said in the direction of the military advisor: "Who knows if it is? His own, what if he stole it from the deputy general?”
Taoxue echoed in a strange tone: "It's okay, it's okay. The Supervisor of the Guard just said that he would never steal anything. This must have appeared suddenly."
Jie Chen looked at Xiangying, a hint of helplessness flashed through his handsome thin eyes.
"Don't make more trouble." He urged the supervisor, "Put your things away first and talk about it later."
However, at this time, the military advisor had already returned with people.
The guards and supervisors were afraid of being discovered, so in desperation, they hid the gold beads in their crotch.
Unexpectedly, when he looked up, he saw the soldiers behind the military advisor carrying three large boxes.
Seeing the military advisor's gloomy expression, the Guard Supervisor had a bad feeling in his heart.
"This is..."
"Guard Supervisor, go and explain to the deputy general why there are three boxes of treasure buried under your tent, and they happen to be the things the deputy general lost!"
The guard supervisor was completely dumbfounded and shook his head desperately: "No! It's really not me! I didn't steal it."
Xiangying tutted: "Stop lying, there are gold beads hidden in your crotch."
The military advisor stared: "Really?"
He took a step forward and grabbed directly from the guard's pants. I don't know if he grabbed it by mistake, but the guard screamed in pain.
Immediately, he fell to the ground trembling with a pale face, and the military counselor pulled out a string of gold beads.
The military advisor was shocked: "Guard Supervisor, the deputy general treated you very well, how dare you steal things! Did you also transport the food and grass? Tell me!"
The guard's voice was trembling: "I really didn't..."
Xiangying blinked her slender eyelashes and asked a confused question from her red lips.
"You didn't steal it, so why did you hide the gold beads?"
The guard supervisor's voice trembled with anger this time: "Didn't you tell me to hide it?"
He pointed at Jie Chen: "Okay, okay... I understand, you and Xiangying are in the same group. You must have transported the things away to frame me!"
Xie Chen frowned: "This matter has nothing to do with me, and the two of us did not conspire."
The guard supervisor changed his previous attitude and cursed viciously: "Xie Chen, you have done a lot of stupid things for her along the way. Maybe it was you who did it!"
The military advisor said directly and indifferently: "Stop arguing, go in front of the deputy general, and you can explain yourself!"
He directly sent people to take away the guards and Xie Chen.
After they left, Skinny Monkey came over and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, why does it seem like you don't like the Guard Supervisor? He and we have gone through hardships together."
Xiang Yingwu laughed to herself: "People's hearts are complicated, you still have to practice."
After saying that, she turned around and took the children to have breakfast.
To deal with a secret traitor like the Guard Supervisor, Xiangying couldn't tell Xie Chen, but she had plenty of ways to punish him.
When she came back last night, she walked into the guard's camp and drugged him.
After that, she took out the shovel from the space and started working.
There were too many jewels, so she buried them in three boxes and then filled them up. As for the gold beads on the back of the guards, she naturally sewed them on with two stitches.
Perhaps it was the effect of the drug, but when the guard supervisor was sleeping, he didn't feel any pain in his back at all.
Xiangying had just finished eating Chinese sandwiches with the children: steamed buns with ham, fried eggs and vegetables.
Over there, the deputy general sent someone over and took Xiang Ying away for interrogation.
