Chapter 140: Bullshit Logic!
After Chu Yunning got the words from Mrs. Gong, he left satisfied, and got into the carriage again, the faint aroma lingered on the tip of his nose, a book, a cup of tea, a person leaned against the wall of the car, read and tasted tea slowly, and raised his eyes when he saw her coming.
"It's finished?"
"Hmm. Chu Yunning nodded and sat aside: "Thank you for coming forward." ”
Emperor Mingwen raised his eyebrows and looked at her in surprise, seeing that she had a cheap and obedient face, he hummed angrily: "I was used as a target by you, there is a saying among the people, so that those who see it have a share." ”
"The prince also wants a piece of the pie?" Chu Yunning sounded the alarm bell in his heart, and looked at the other party vigilantly, but saw that he looked serious and didn't look like a joke at all.
"But ......"
"If I didn't come forward to threaten, Mrs. Gong might not be able to be fooled by you, you come and go, and it won't be difficult to cooperate next time, what do you say?" Emperor Ming Wen directly interrupted what Chu Yunning wanted to say, with an attitude that he would definitely divide me in half today.
In desperation, Chu Yunning had no choice but to bite her lip and agree.
The two returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion again, Chu Yunning watched Emperor Mingwen go straight to the Autumn Lotus Pond, and couldn't help but ask, "Did the emperor already know that things were under here?"
"Could it be that the thing is under the pool?" Emperor Mingwen asked rhetorically.
Chu Yunning nodded.
Remember https://m in a second.
"No wonder, I look at the pattern of this pond is a little strange, the lotus blooms so enchantingly in autumn, out of the mud without staining ......"
After saying a lot, Chu Yunning didn't hear the point, until Emperor Mingwen came to say, "Xiangye loves lotus alone, his clothes are embroidered with pictures, and even the fragrance on his body is more or less with a little lotus fragrance, so I guess it is related to lotus." ”
"Then why didn't the prince say it just now?"
If she had known just now, she wouldn't have to go to Mrs. Gong, she would just dig a pond and pump water.
Emperor Mingwen shook his head: "It's just a guess, if you guess the wrong direction, wouldn't it disappoint Chu Shanggong?"
Chu Yunning choked, if she couldn't find the property left by the palace prime minister, she would be furious when she felt it, and she would curse Emperor Ming Wen in private for not paying attention.
"The prince is reasonable, I am a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Chu Yunning generously apologized.
"The water in this pool can't be pumped out for a day and a night, so you plan to wait here to see the results?" Emperor Mingwen clasped his hands in front of his chest and looked at her with a wry smile, this woman simply fell into the eyes of money, too persistent.
Chu Yunning hesitated for a moment: "The minister can't wait, and plans to send a few people down to explore first." ”
Not looking at it in front of her, she was not at ease.
"If the prince is in a hurry to go back, the minister will not bother. ”
"I'm not in a hurry. Emperor Mingwen rubbed his shoulders: "It's rare that I can come out to relax and relax, and I can accompany you for two more days." ”
Chu Yunning had no intention of demolishing the other party.
"The Emperor, it's not too early, it's time for lunch. Under the other party's signal, Grandpa Mo had to remind him.
He has tasted Chu Yunning's craftsmanship, and it is ever-changing, and the taste can't even be made in the imperial dining room.
Chu Yunning looked around, caught a glimpse of a few fatty fish in the autumn pool, and suddenly said, "If you don't mind, how about we just sit on the ground and grill fish?"
"It's fine. ”
Soon the guards caught a few fatty fish, and after simply cleaning up, they picked up the branches and skewered them, sprinkled some spices, and then dragged a few lotus leaves, planning to make a fish called Huayu, the big kitchen of the Prime Minister's Mansion lacked nothing, just made skewers, simple and delicious.
Raised the fire, threw the lotus leaf fish into it, and then buried it again, Emperor Mingwen asked curiously when he saw this: "Chu Shang Palace, you are too perfunctory to do this." ”
"What does the prince know, this is a very famous snack, you will know when you taste it later. ”
After being stunned, Emperor Mingwen touched the tip of his nose, and quickly reached out to help, and after a while, dozens of skewers of mutton skewers and beef skewers were skewered.
It was placed on the iron plate and rolled back and forth, and after a while, the aroma came, and Emperor Mingwen sniffed: "It is indeed very fragrant." ”
The first skewer of grilled mutton skewers was still dripping with oil, and Chu Yunning handed it directly to Emperor Mingwen: "The emperor has a taste." ”
Emperor Mingwen took a bite, it was tender and juicy, not greasy at all, the taste was just right, and he ate a bunch after a while, and the Mo Gonggong on the side drooled greedily, and looked at it with a blank eye, Chu Yunning gave a few bunches very generously.
"Anyway, it's still early, so don't be idle. ”
"Hey, thank you Chu Shang Palace, minions. Grandpa Mo didn't wait for Emperor Mingwen's reaction, he directly took a string and ate it in a big gulp.
After a while, the grilled fish was ready, sprinkled with a layer of sesame seeds and peppercorns and handed it to Emperor Mingwen, the fish was fragrant and tender, and Gonggong Mo was very considerate to remove all the thorns.
"The one under the fire is okay, right?" Emperor Mingwen always remembered that there was a fish under the fire.
Chu Yunning picked up the stick and opened the fire, dug out a small ball of soil, knocked it hard, and then took it with a clean lotus leaf and opened it.
The aroma of the fish is suddenly overflowing, a little lighter than the roasted taste, but it is all soaked into the soup, and every bite is the essence.
Emperor Mingwen didn't care about the heat, and directly ate a whole fish.
After tossing around, the water in the pool was less than one-third, Chu Yunning was full of food and drink, and lay down on the chair comfortably, enjoying the breeze: "This is the most suitable time to sleep." ”
"That makes sense. ”
"The prince really doesn't plan to leave?" Chu Yunning touched his nose, the southern end of the whole person was Emperor Mingwen's, and he was interested in this little money?
Emperor Mingwen didn't even lift his eyelids, he lay on the chair and hummed a few words, which was a response.
Seeing this, Chu Yunning didn't want to ask any more, leaned back, and simply closed his eyes and rested.
Maybe it was because I was too tired, I fell asleep after lying down for a while, I don't know how long later, the tip of my nose was a little itchy, and a faint ambergris fragrance swept through.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Suddenly there was the sound of arguing and fighting in his ears, the sword was unsheathed, glowing with cold light, only to feel that there was a cold air coming, Chu Yunning suddenly opened his eyes.
More than a dozen guards and dozens of black-clothed men were entangled and fighting, and Emperor Mingwen on the side stared at the Autumn Lotus Pond without raising his head.
"Awake?" Emperor Mingwen heard the movement and looked sideways at her.
Chu Yunning asked curiously, "Who are these people?"
"They're all assassins. ”
Seeing that Emperor Mingwen was not shocked, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing, she really couldn't help it: "Aren't you worried that these guards will miss?"
"It's all taught by me myself, if I didn't have the ability to protect my master, I would have been eliminated a long time ago. ”
Chu Yunning, who was choked with these words, couldn't refute it, and Gonggong Mo explained on the side, "Chu Shang Palace, these people don't know the identity of the emperor, they are coming to the Autumn Lotus Pond, they are all gangsters, and they are not enough to be afraid. ”
I don't know where these people heard the news, as soon as they heard that the autumn lotus pond had dug up the treasure, they rushed in a swarm, and they didn't even care about their lives.
Half an hour later, all the thugs were arrested, and the guards here were not even injured at all.
It's like rubbing the other person on the ground.
It's not a grade at all.
This night did not stop, wave after wave of people came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to look for treasure, and this person came too densely.
Emperor Mingwen yawned, he was really impatient, and gave an order: "Let Jing Zhaoyin come!"
"Yes!"
After a while, Jing Zhaoyin came, looked at the prisoners kneeling in the courtyard, and then glanced at the man in front of him, his legs were almost weak, and he stumbled forward and saluted: "The minister asks the emperor for peace, the minister is late for help, and asks the emperor for forgiveness." ”
Emperor Mingwen waved his hand: "No need to be polite, stay and interrogate, and in an hour I will know who is spreading the news behind my back." ”
"Yes!"
Jing Zhaoyin had a headache, so many people were afraid that the prison would not be able to be stuffed.
Chu Yunning watched the water in the autumn pool gradually disappear, his eyes moved slightly, and he probably guessed who was making small moves behind his back.
She didn't understand how people in this era were not afraid of death, and several warnings were to no avail, the prime minister of the palace was dead, and she didn't have the heart to embarrass Mrs. Gong at all.
Half an hour later, Jing Zhaoyin came to the door to report that the news that there was a treasure hidden in the autumn pool of the palace prime minister's mansion was released by the slave maid beside the palace lady.
Sure enough, Chu Yunning was not surprised at all by this result.
There was already a lot of uproar with so many gangsters coming to the door at the same time, even if Emperor Ming Wen wanted to spare her life, he was afraid that the civil and military officials would not be happy.
It makes sense to kill her.
Emperor Mingwen raised his hand slightly: "You are Jing Zhaoyin, responsible for the safety of Kyoto, what should I do in your opinion?"
"Go back to the emperor, arrest the main messenger behind the scenes, and try it in three sessions. ”
It's the process, impartiality and not targeting anyone.
Emperor Mingwen bowed his head lightly: "Then leave this matter to you, and be sure to give an explanation to the people of the whole capital." ”
Jing Zhaoyin was stunned for a moment, is this going to drag the palace lady to parade through the street?
"Yes!"
Chu Yunning was patient, and finally waited to see the bottom of the autumn lotus pond, and a group of people went down to pull out all the lotus flowers in the pool, and also collected a lot of fresh lotus roots, as well as lotus pods, Chu Yunning was not idle, pulled out a few, tasted two bites and felt that the taste was not bad, and stared at the scale under the pool excitedly.
Most of the silt had been cleared, and finally the outline was revealed, and a thick layer of stones was laid under the bottom of the pool.
Looking from the bottom up, it looks like a well-designed underground palace, extending all the way around, and I don't know the bottom and the edge.
Chu Yunning looked at it bluntly, obediently, how many treasures does Prime Minister Gong have saved.
"The first to build the Xiangfu is the mansion of the only princess of the previous emperor, this princess is very favored, extravagant, even the personal maid wears gold and silver, and it is not surprising that she can hide a small vault. Emperor Mingwen explained.
"I see. The more Chu Yunning thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't wait to dig up the treasure right away, and he didn't know if Prime Minister Gong would be angry if he knew that the treasure had been dug up.
Seeing that her eyes were clear and cunning, Emperor Mingwen's thin lips curled: "That's it?"
"How many people can't struggle for this in their lifetime, how can they not be excited?"
A lifetime of fine clothes and food is the dream of many people, although she is not short of money, she will not be too rich.
This was waiting for most of the day, and Chu Yunning's eyes stared at the mud-stained door for a moment.
"This is probably the entrance, but it looks like it will take some time to open. Emperor Mingwen studied for a moment and felt that the lock was a little complicated.
Chu Yunning didn't say a word, pulled out a hairpin from his sideburns, inserted it into the lock cylinder, closed his eyes, and turned it gently with the feeling, and the people around him even breathed lightly.
Click!
There were a few sounds in succession, a very crisp sound, the door was directly bounced open, and Emperor Mingwen stared at her with surprise in his eyes: "What else do you can't do?"
"After being locked up for five years, you have to rely on yourself for everything, otherwise you would have starved to death a long time ago. Chu Yunning explained, regardless of whether the other party believes it or not, there is no way to find out anyway.
The first gate was opened, revealing more than a dozen steps, followed by the second door, which could stand directly at the second door, Chu Yunning found a candle and waved it twice in mid-air, and the candle was not extinguished.
There's also oxygen in there, so I'm not afraid to go in.
Chu Yunning studied the lock for a while, and to see how rusty the lock was, she raised her head and asked, "Father-in-law Mo, I would like you to check it out, when was the last time this Autumn Lotus Pond was renovated?"
Grandpa Mo nodded, turned around and left, but soon came again: "It was last summer, Xiangye suddenly felt that the white lotus was not good-looking, so he changed it to a delicate fan." ”
"Okay, got it. Chu Yunning nodded, since someone came last year, it means that it is safe here.
Jin Hai entered the keyhole and turned it gently, Chu Yunning pointed to the four corners of the gate: "The emperor asked people to shake each of these four corners once." ”
Emperor Mingwen gestured with a look, and the four guards aimed at the four corners and exerted all their strength, and a gate shattered in response, and fell to the ground with a loud bang.
Standing at the second gate, Chu Yunning looked at the scene inside and was stupid, her property was not worth mentioning compared to the palace prime minister.
There were hundreds of boxes, and when I opened one casually, there were gold bars in it, and countless gold, silver, and jewelry fell in front of me.
"This ...... No wonder King Huai attacked the capital, the old fox did not move, has been guarding the Prime Minister's Mansion, this is clearly to attack and retreat, there are so many treasures, sooner or later one day will make a comeback. ”
Fortunately, the prime minister of the palace is gone, otherwise he will definitely become a big trouble for Emperor Mingwen.
Emperor Mingwen was also shocked by everything in front of him, he didn't expect that so many belongings were hidden here.
"It's really ambitious. ”
Chu Yunning suddenly regretted a little, she had worked so hard to find the treasure, this amount, she really didn't dare to share it with Emperor Mingwen.
She was afraid that she would not even be able to go out of the capital with so many things.
"The emperor, these belongings must have been obtained by the prime minister by looting the people's fat and people's ointment, I am a frank person, and I will never want ill-gotten gains. Chu Yunning immediately expressed her sincerity, she definitely has no intention of rebellion, although the silver is good, her life is more important.
Emperor Mingwen glanced at Chu Yunning, and a smile twitched at the corner of his mouth: "Don't worry, I will leave ten boxes for you, which will be regarded as a credit to you, and all the rest will be filled into the treasury." ”
Looking at the smile on his face, Chu Yunning had a feeling of falling into a trap.
