at dusk.

When Li An arrived at the door of Morong Mansion, the servant boy in front of the door saw him very enthusiastically and said:

"Guanshi Zuo, you're here."

Li An said: "Yes, Brother Zhang, can Mo Cixi be at home today?"

Xiao Zhang said:

"Yes, but she is hosting a banquet for some big shots in the pavilion tonight. You probably have to wait, or come back tomorrow?"

"No, Zuo does have some urgent matters. I'll wait until Mo Ci finishes the banquet before paying my respects."

Li An was not in a hurry.

"Are you anxious? Then I can inform you?"

"That's not necessary. I'll just wait here. When Mo Ci finishes the banquet, I'll say a few words to her and then leave."

"Okay, steward Zuo, come in first and take a seat -"

Xiao Zhang, the servant boy, spoke enthusiastically and invited Li An into the small side room inside the door. Li An chatted leisurely with Xiao Zhang.

At first, when he was a candidate for treasure appraiser, Mo Rong was very cold towards him, but after he chose to work in the treasure house, Mo Rong's attitude towards him became much better, and he could visit him at his house from time to time.

The reason for this is also very simple. When he was a candidate treasure appraiser, getting close to him would hurt the feelings of Lu Hua and Zheng Xiaoxiao. But Li An voluntarily gave up the competition with the two of them, so she naturally This burden is gone.

On the contrary, Li An is the treasure trove manager, which can be regarded as a key position in the cabinet. It is good to have more confidants.

Li An also managed the relationship very well with the servant boys and maids in her house. Xiao Zhang, the servant boy, especially received a lot of favors from him and started chatting with Li An at this moment.

Li An smiled and listened.

From Xiao Zhang's mouth, he learned that the people Mo Rong was entertaining tonight were the two elders in the pavilion, Han Fang and Zhao Zhong.

In addition to the pavilion master, the chief treasure appraiser and the three elders have the most distinguished status in the Treasure Pavilion. The current chief treasure appraiser is approaching the end of his life and has only about ten years left to live. He is about to be replaced.

Three senior treasure appraisers are fighting openly and secretly for promotion.

Mo Rong was naturally enthusiastic about wooing several elders.

Combined with Xiao Zhang's gossip, Li An thought and deduced over and over again.

It wasn't until midnight that Mo Rong saw the two elders out in person.

The three of them chatted politely at the door for a long time before Han Fang and Zhao Zhong got in the car and left.

Seeing that the time had come, Xiao Zhang quickly walked out and whispered a few words in front of Mo Rong.

Morong nodded.

Xiao Zhang ran back to the small side room and said, "Guard Zuo, the master agrees to see you."

Li An then walked out and saluted respectfully.

"follow me."

Mo Rong spoke calmly.

Walk into her study.

Mo Rong obviously drank a lot of wine. Her clothes were half-opened, revealing her snow-white shoulders. The smell of wine was mixed with a faint fragrance. She said:

"What's the emergency?"

Li Andao:

"I'm sorry, there's something going on at the treasure house."

"Master Lu Hua seems to be being targeted. Many of the problematic treasures he identified may have been known to Xu Changkong—"

Hearing this, Mo Rong instantly raised her eyebrows!

Now in the competition for chief treasure appraiser, her strongest opponent is Xu Changkong.

The two have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time.

And Lu Hua and Zheng Xiaoxiao are her confidants!

Is Xu Changkong going to take action from Lu Hua? If Lu Hua had something to do and Xu Changkong caught him, it would indeed be a troublesome matter.

"Speak carefully!"

Her expression became serious.

Li An immediately said:

"Qi Zhen Mo Cixi, I recently discovered that a subordinate named Zhang Qingqing at the treasure house has frequent contact with Xu Changkong's people."

"I secretly investigated and found that she actually gave Lu Hua all the lists of treasures identified by Master Lu Hua, and highlighted some treasures in it."

"I felt strange, so I checked the treasures handled by Master Lu Hua one by one, and found that Master Lu Hua's problem... is very serious!"

Li An looked grim: "Four years ago, he appraised and acquired a second-grade elixir as a second-grade elixir. Three years ago, he appraised four first-level weapon refining materials at once, but he identified them as second-level elixirs. Pay for materials..."

Li An told them one by one.

This is what he has been doing all these years at Treasure House.

check!

He focused his attention on Zheng Xiaoxiao and Lu Hua. He carefully examined every treasure they handled and kept it in mind.

The treasure appraiser in the pavilion was not clean to begin with. With his patient attention, he naturally mastered these things.

In fact, in Li An's view, this Lu Hua is relatively restrained, and the black material on Zheng Xiaoxiao in Li An's hands is even more powerful.

But the old man in Zheng Xiaoxiao’s family is not dead yet, and his roots are still deep in the pavilion.

Lu Hua's grandfather died first.

So, fight Lu Hua!

This provides the least resistance.

And listening to his explanation, Mo Rong's eyes were filled with surprise.

The treasures Li An mentioned are extremely easy to make a fuss about. For example, the second-grade and second-grade elixir snow lotus were difficult to distinguish, let alone ordinary people, even treasure appraisers.

Only those who specialize in elixirs can have such knowledge.

And Ang Lee talks eloquently, and everything hits the point.

This proves...

Li An has a vision that is not weaker than that of a real treasure appraiser.

She couldn't help but nod secretly. She was deeply impressed by Li An's abilities and knowledge back then, and now she felt that Li An was even more extraordinary.

Thinking about it, he must have never relaxed his study of treasure appraisal knowledge during these years in the treasure house.

However, she also immediately thought in her mind that Li An deliberately came to work in the treasure house, could it be just for today? !

Retreating to advance, waiting for an opportunity, like a lurking cheetah, when Lu Hua's weakness is revealed, he suddenly steps out and kills with one blow?

If this is really the case...this Li An is too patient!

She was so patient that it made her feel terrible.

Li An came to him to take down Lu Hua and create opportunities for himself to rise to the top?

She couldn't help but hesitate in her heart. Whether the problems Li An mentioned were big or small depended on whether she was willing to protect Lu Hua once.

Paulo Hua, Ang Lee will never have a chance in the future.

If not, let Ang Lee take Lu Hua's place!

pick one of two?

But, does Ang Lee have such value?

"None of the above are the biggest problems..."

But Li An looked solemn and said:

"The most frightening thing is that the batch of 'Fetal Soul Grass' he recently collected also has problems, and the proportion is as high as 30%!"

As soon as these words came out, Mo Rong's expression suddenly changed, "How dare he do anything to the Fetal Soul Grass!"

She was really shocked.

Collecting fetal soul grass has been an important task of the Treasure Pavilion in the past six months.

And she even knew that this batch of supplies... was wanted by the palace.

The collection results of this batch of materials are even an important consideration in deciding who will take the top position, between her and Xu Changkong.

There was something wrong with this batch of elixirs, and Xu Changkong got caught... If Xu Changkong directly went to the palace or the pavilion master, even she, Mo Rong, would be implicated.

When the palace becomes angry, Zhenbao Pavilion simply cannot bear it.

Because Tianyang Palace is the biggest backstage of Zhenbao Pavilion!

However, he could even think of it with his feet. If Xu Changkong knew this, would he not seize such a good opportunity and give Mo Rong a heavy blow?

"The situation of this batch of elixir...is Xu Changkong also aware of it?"

She couldn't help but feel a little nervous!

Li An nodded heavily, "Yes."

"It's all my fault. I found out too late. I didn't expect that they would actually reach out to the treasure house and plant their spies here..."

He let out a long sigh, "Mo Cixi, this matter is extremely urgent, so after Zuo Wen investigated clearly, he rushed here non-stop, please Mo Cixi to consider what to do!"
