Zhi Mansion (7)

"Impossible the Zhi family would never lower their status to that of a mistress, could they be after the head wife position?"

"From the looks of his wife already the head position would be impossible for even madam Zhi Xin!"

"Exactly such a beautiful wife and child already why would he consider a mistress!"

Zhi Yue glanced around the room listening to all the insults. She glance at Shi Rong then spoke clearly. "Master Zhi it would appear it is now time to auction our grand rare item."

Master Zhi became enlightened at her suggestion. Upon hearing about the rare item the crowd immediately stopped al insults and complaints.

Master Zhi turned towards a nearby servant. "Bring forth our rare item to resume the auction…..." Another servant immediately ran forth cutting off his conversation as he panted.

"MASTER ZHI THE RARE ITEM, THE EYE OF THE WATER DRAGON HAS BEEN STOLEN!"

The crowd gasped.

Master Zhi immediately became enraged and roared. "WHO DARES STEAL FROM THE ZHI FAMILY, GUARDS SEARCH EVERYONE PRESENT!"

Zhi Yue raised her chin and walked away standing beside Master Zhi in and elegant pose with her hands cuffed in front her waist.

Zhi Xin stood beside a nearby pillar sipping on a cup of wine watching Zhi Yues actions with a cold light in her eye. She watched as the guards slowly made their way around the room searching everyone present.

One guard approached Hui Mian. She glared at him with her one yellow eye ready to insult him when Xiandi elbowed her lightly in the side reminding her to behave. She held her tongue as he ran his hands over her body and through her sleeves searching her thoroughly.

More guards began searching Ling Yiyao and Xiandi.

Another guard approached Shi Rong and kowtowed then immediately stood straight. "Madam please extend your arms for a search." Shi Rong extended her arms allowing the guard to run his hands across her body and through her sleeves searching every inch of her.

When finished he approached Mo Yu. "Little child allow this adult to search you."

Mo Yu raised his chin in the air and extended his arms allowing the guard to search him. The guard ran his hands up and down his legs along his small body and into his sleeves.

CLANK!

A small jar crashed to the floor with a large clank rolling to the guards feet revealing the eye of the water dragon inside. Causing the entire hall to immediately erupt into a frenzy.
