Inside the rear hall of the county yamen.
Chen Sheng arrived upon being summoned. The moment he stepped into the rear hall, he keenly sensed that Wu Kuang's mood seemed exceptionally high today.
This usually composed and reserved County Captain was now beaming with unconcealable joy. Seeing Chen Sheng enter, he immediately greeted him warmly, "Perfect timing. Come, sit down."
Chen Sheng did as he was told, taking a seat in the Taishi Chair across from him. His gaze was immediately drawn to a tray on the table, covered with a red cloth. The tray looked heavy, and judging by its outline, the objects within were of considerable weight.
"Sir, what is this?" Chen Sheng asked, a hint of confusion in his voice.
Wu Kuang gave a mysterious smile and pushed the tray toward Chen Sheng.
"See for yourself what treasure is inside."
