Chapter 131: Doubts
"Gold mine?" Zhiruo snorted and frowned, yes, how could she forget this stubble? In her previous life, just before she was shocked to hear that she had "killed" the child in the womb of Mrs. Shizi, Rudong was talking about the prince's failure to force the palace and being placed under house arrest, and also said that the prince's power was able to expand rapidly in a few years because the prince's party secretly mined and occupied a large area of gold mines.
She remembers very clearly, Rudong was joking to amuse her at that time: "Everyone used to say that Bai'e Ridge was a goose that didn't lay eggs, and they didn't get anything to plant, but they didn't know that this goose only laid golden eggs, and it was simply a golden goose." ”
Could it be that this life has changed, and the gold mine has gone to Goose Head Mountain? Impossible, right? There must have been something wrong in the middle, for example, it was in the wrong place at the beginning, and then it was found, or ......
"Yes, big sister, it's a gold mine," Li Da's affirmative answer interrupted Zhiruo's thoughts, "I accidentally saw the prince's people that day, so I sent someone to keep an eye on them, as well as Baihualou." In detail, what he saw was Zhong Kai, a staff member next to the prince of the Yasukuni Mansion, and after the death of his father-in-law Yin Zhao, because he suspected the Yasukuni Mansion, he had taken a great risk to investigate them and found that Zhong Kai was actually the prince's person.
Zhiruo nodded, she knew that the two brothers-in-law had always suspected that the person behind the murder of her father was the crown prince. Therefore, when the person who found the prince appeared in Los Angeles, he naturally subconsciously sent people to keep an eye on it.
Li Da continued: "The matter of this gold mine was not operated by the Yasukuni Mansion, but a wealthy businessman surnamed Cui in Lingnan claimed that he liked the feng shui of Goose Head Mountain, bought the whole mountain, and wanted to build a villa there, because the Cui family's business has been expanding northward in the past two years. By the way, eldest sister, your former big girl Ruxia's family was also involved in this matter, and it was recommended by a big steward surnamed Wen of the Cui family, and that big steward used to be the steward of the Yasukuni Mansion, but two years ago he made a mistake and was resold, and he was sold to Lingnan, hehe. "Obviously, this Cui family is also from the prince's faction.
As for how the Ruxia family hooked up with the Cui family, if you don't care much, then Niu San has always been an active person, and it is normal to make friends with the relevant stewards of various provinces when he goes out to do business. Her mind was now full of doubts about whether the gold mine was in Bai'e Ridge or Goose Head Mountain.
She believed that she would not be mistaken, so if the previous life was also first at Goose Head Mountain and then at Bai'e Mountain, what could have been the cause and effect? and when did it change? In other words, when did the crown prince begin to secretly own the gold mine?
It's a pity, knowing that in her previous life, she was a well-behaved backyard woman and a humble aunt, how could she know what was going on outside? All she could hear was Qiu Yiran's occasional show-off or complaint in front of her, or it was the gossip that Rudong inquired about. No matter which one it is, it is generally the final result, there is no intermediate process, and there are one or two sentences that are roughly introduced.
Originally, she was not interested in where the gold mine was, but since the crown prince was likely to be her great enemy, it was really not a bad thing to be able to sabotage him to further expand his strength. Of course, the premise is that they can't be exposed.
Obviously, Ming Ze, who had been listening quietly, also thought of this: "If there are really so many gold mines in Goosehead Mountain, isn't the prince's strength a thousand miles a day?"
Li Da looked approvingly at Ming Ze, who was not yet fourteen years old, and he thought the same thing. Although the emperor is now in the prime of life and is in good health, and the succession of the crown prince will be fifteen to twenty years later, the world is unpredictable, and the battle for the throne has always been cruel. What's more, the emperor doesn't seem to like the current crown prince very much, and the other princes in the harem seem to be calm, but who knows how they actually are. Under such circumstances, once the crown prince masters a mountain of gold and his strength grows rapidly, what will he do, uh, he really "doesn't dare" to think. The first prince was deposed, and the Ming Mansion was overturned, if it has nothing to do with the current prince, he is the first not to believe it.
Therefore, they must not watch the crown prince occupy the gold mountain. It's a pity, Jinshan can't be burned with a fire, right?
Zhiruoyi raised his eyebrows: "It's to do something, let the prince occupy it privately, it's better to let the court fill the treasury." ”
Li Da slapped the table: "Yes, I almost forgot an important thing, I don't know if the British prince was sent by the emperor, and his people are also staring at Goose Head Mountain." ”
"The prince of England?" Zhiruo said in surprise, "That ruffian, Pan Jiaming?" "A gentleman, the emperor would send him out to do such an important thing?
The sister and brother had a heart, and Ming Ze pursed his lips: "I have heard my father say many times that the emperor is a meritocracy. "It shouldn't be that the queen will reuse him just because the queen loves that Pan Jiaming. ”
Li Da said strangely: "Listening to your tone, I also saw him?"
Ming Ze shook his head: "I didn't, it was the eldest sister and Xuan'er who met." ”
Zhiruo briefly recounted what happened that day in "Good Again", including the knot with Pan Jiaming's arrogant cousin Pan Shumin, and Xiaolian's betrayal of her father.
Li Da smiled: "So that's the case, that Pan Shizi's reputation is really not very good, but I'm afraid the rumors can't be believed, at least, he is definitely not as uneducated as the rumors, according to the description of No. 5, his martial arts should not be below me, No. 5 met him once when he was staring at Goose Head Mountain, and he didn't dare to get too close for fear of being discovered by him." "Fortunately, No. 5 is an old qualified secret guard, even if his martial arts are not as good as Pan Jiaming, but he is also hiding in the shadows, he can find Pan Jiaming, but Pan Jiaming is not easy to find him.
Ming Ze was puzzled: "Eldest sister, Brother Cunren, do you mean to help Pan Shizi? Well, no, didn't Pan Shizi himself stare at it a long time ago? It seems that we don't need to help." ”
If she didn't answer Mingze's question, she had to solve the doubts in her mind first, and also think about how to tell Li Da and Mingze about this doubt, so that Li Da could find out this problem.
Suddenly, Zhiruo's eyes lit up, she thought of Rudong's words again, raised her eyes and asked, "Brother Cunren, you said that the businessman surnamed Cui said to the outside world that he was building a villa in Goosehead Mountain?"
Li Da nodded: "Well, that's right." No. 5 also said, the location of Goose Head Mountain is good, the scenery is beautiful, it is indeed very suitable for building a summer resort, and it is also said that the rich businessmen in the south are the richest man in Luo, and they know how to enjoy it. ”R1152
