Hearing his question, the others thought that Lao Bai might know something. Qi Kang of the Phoenix Guards immediately said: "It should be at the fake mountain. I'll go take a look." As soon as he said this, he turned around and rushed out.
"Family head, your body … …"
Fan Lin asked. He knew medicine. Seeing his family head's mental state, how was it not good in the slightest? But what was with the news that had been released recently? What exactly did the eldest young miss want to do?
"My body is fine. I'm just taking advantage of the situation. It's good that you know. Don't let the news leak." Feng Xiao said in a calm voice. He gestured for Guan Xilin to help him get off the bed and sit at the table in the outer room.
The others looked at each other. Suppressing the doubts in their hearts, they followed. No wonder the eldest young miss did not allow anyone to enter this room. It turned out that the family head was not unconscious. They had covered up this news quite well. If it were not for them coming in because they were worried, they might not have known that the family head's body was fine.
"The matter of the old man being kidnapped. Before Xiao Jiu returns, seal off the news. Do not let the slightest bit of news leak out." Feng Xiao calmed down and said in a calm voice: "Also, if anyone comes to visit the manor, close the door and refuse to see them."
"Yes!"
The others replied in a low voice. They knew the severity of the problem. Currently, Feng Xiao was unconscious. If the news of the old man being kidnapped was leaked, it would be one disaster after another for the Feng manor. Currently, the powers and the royal family did not dare to move against the Feng manor because they were afraid of the old man and the Phoenix Guards' power. If they found out that the old man was missing and kidnapped, the consequences would be unthinkable!
Not long after, Qi Kang returned and said: "Lao Bai is sleeping very soundly at the fake mountain. I checked and found some powder on the ground. My initial guess is that when the person kidnapped the old master last night, Lao Bai should have discovered it. He was just tricked. Also, I found this under Lao Bai's belly."
He took out the item he had found while moving Lao Bai and placed it on the table. "Master, take a look. Does this belong to the Old Master?"
It was a piece of jade the size of a fingernail. The quality of the jade was excellent. It was dark green and moist. Although it was only a small piece, it could be seen from the moist surface that this piece of jade was not an ordinary piece of jade.
"This isn't Old Master's."
After looking at it, Feng Xiao shook his head and pondered, "This kind of jade is very common even in the Brilliant Sun Empire. It should have been accidentally dropped by the people who kidnapped the old man. However, with such a small piece of jade the size of a fingernail, it would be impossible to investigate."
"It's better to have some clues than no clues at all. At least we know that the old man's life shouldn't be in danger."
Guan Xilin said as he picked up the nail-sized jade piece and said, "I'll take this jade piece to the black market and let them check it out. Maybe they'll know where this jade came from. If there are clues, we can also track down Grandpa's whereabouts."
"Un, you can take this jade piece to the black market. However, this is our only clue. Be careful not to lose it." Feng Xiao nodded as he spoke. Thinking of how Guan Xilin had said that the old man's life would not be in danger, he relaxed slightly.
