Chapter 281: Stealing the Ledger
"That'...... So what should I do?" Yu Xiaotong had no idea, how could this be different from what his mother said?
Gu Yuanqin saw Yu Xiaotong's face with a blank look, and knew that he was frightened by his words. So, she simply asked him to understand a little more: "Cousin, haven't you thought about helping my cousin to ascend to the position of the crown princess?"
This time Yu Xiaotong was really frightened, he looked at the cousin in front of him in disbelief, and said after a while: "Cousin Qin, are you joking?"
Gu Yuanqin glanced at him: "Cousin, do you see that I am so serious now, as if I am joking with you?"
Yu Xiaotong swallowed his saliva with difficulty: "Qin, cousin Qin, you know that this person must be self-aware, we, we ......"
"Who doesn't know what to do," Gu Yuanqin sneered disapplauded, "Take the current Queen Mother as an example, she was just a lowly palace maid back then." Now, becoming the emperor's mother and the first person in the harem, is it possible that you say that the queen mother of the year also had to be self-aware?"
Yu Xiaotong was so frightened that his face turned white: "Cousin, cousin, how can you say such a thing? How can you compare with the current Queen Mother?"
"Why can't I compare with the Queen Mother?" Gu Yuanqin raised his voice and said, "Cousin, don't forget, I am also one of the top ten celebrities in the capital, and I am very self-aware, I am single-minded to the prince, unlike the ...... in the big house."
Speaking of this, Gu Yuanqin suddenly stopped, and she found that she had slipped her mouth.
Yu Xiaotong really listened to it, and hurriedly asked, "What did you just say?"
Gu Yuanqin disguised: "I didn't say anything." ”
Yu Xiaotong shook his head: "That's not right." I listened to what you just said, word for word. You just said that you are single-minded towards the prince. Not like the ...... in the big house."
Speaking of this, Yu Xiaotong's eyes widened, and he looked at her and said, "What do you mean by this, could it be that the one in the big house is not single-minded to the prince?"
Gu Yuanqin kept asking questions, knowing that there was doubt in his heart, and she didn't explain. only said: "I also heard about this matter just now, and as for the credibility of this matter, it needs to be further investigated." If what I said is true. What is my cousin going to do, will he support me to ascend to the position of crown princess?"
Yu Xiaotong thought about it, and felt that Miss Gu Si was reasonable, what was the use of talking to the big house of the Marquis of Yuanning? Dafang has always regarded the second room as a thorn in his side. I don't know how many times I've fought openly and secretly, so no matter how much I try to curry favor, I'm afraid it won't help.
So, he made up his mind and said, "If the one in your big house is really disloyal to the prince as you said, then I will never stand idly by." I will definitely support you to ascend to the throne of the crown princess!"
Gu Yuanqin saw that Yu Xiaotong was finally relieved, and couldn't help but rejoice. said: "Okay, let's make a decision." ”
Yu Xiaotong said proudly: "If Cousin Qin can ascend to the throne of the crown princess and become the queen mother in the future, I Yu Xiaotong will definitely saddle the horse and serve my cousin, it is incumbent on me!"
Gu Yuanqin was very happy in her heart, she knew that with the help of this cousin who used to be a martial artist, her chances of defeating Dafang were much higher. But there's something important to do.
She smiled and glanced at Yu Xiaotong: "Cousin, you are just the champion of the last martial arts, but in the past few years, you have been calling yourself sick at home, how can you convince people that your martial arts have not weakened, and you are still as brave as ever?
Yu Xiaotong couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. Although he has been pampered at home in the past few years, martial arts are what he likes in his life, and he will not neglect to practice this. But as for how to prove it, he can't let the little guy in his house come out to prove it for him, right?
Yu Xiaotong scratched his head and asked, "Cousin Qin, you say, how can I prove it to the prince?"
Gu Yuanqin knew that Yu Xiaotong had fallen into her trap, of course she was striking while the iron was hot, and she would never let Yu Xiaotong discover her conspiracy. So she deliberately frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Cousin, because we want to choose the crown princess, we have always been very close to the crown prince. I also know the prince's temperament quite well. The prince is a very serious person, and if you want to get into his eyes, you have to have real skills. ”
Yu Xiaotong heard that he was going to test his kung fu. He immediately patted his chest and said, "Cousin Qin, you say, what do you want to test me?" As long as you can say it, I will definitely be able to do it." ”
Gu Yuanqin glanced at Shen Gui next to him, Shen Gui understood, and immediately walked down, sending out all the girls in the house, and standing at the door to control the wind.
Gu Yuanqin said: "Cousin, I just have something to do, and I'm worried about who to do......
Before he finished speaking, Yu Xiaotong immediately responded: "Cousin Qin, you just say that as long as Brother Yu does what he can, he will definitely help you handle this matter properly." ”
Gu Yuanqin deliberately frowned, looked at Yu Xiaotong and said, "Cousin, you better listen to what I say and then make a decision." In the final analysis, this matter is not my business, this is the prince's business. I just want to help the prince do this and ask the prince for a favor. ”
When Yu Xiaotong heard this, he was even more obliged: "Cousin Qin, since it is the prince's business, it is even more imperative, you can say it quickly, if you don't say it again, you will die of a brother in a hurry." ”
Gu Yuanqin said at this time: "Cousin, have you ever heard about the seizure of Huiyuan Bank?"
Yu Xiaotong was stunned: "Huiyuan Money?"
When he first came to the capital, where had he heard about it, he immediately asked, "Why was that money bank seized?"
Gu Yuanqin sighed faintly and said, "I heard that it involved a private iron ore mining matter. In fact, how could such a small money bank have the courage to dig up some iron ore that was expressly forbidden by the imperial court? In my opinion, someone must have been deceived and invested in it, not wanting the other party to do something that violated the law, and as a result, he was implicated. ”
Yu Xiaotong didn't know anything about iron ore, and echoed her: "Cousin Qin is right. ”
Gu Yuanqin rolled his eyes and continued: "This matter is not about the prince, but it is such a coincidence, the prince has saved some silver in this bank, and the source of this silver is always recorded in the account of this bank......"
Yu Xiaotong understood when he heard it.
To be honest, who doesn't like silver in this world? Even the crown prince who is in a high position and holds great power is no exception. Presumably, these silver must have been obtained by the prince through some channels that are not very visible, and now that Dali Temple has sealed this money bank, it is bound to find out the account books of this money bank, so the prince will be worried.
"What does the prince mean?" Yu Xiaotong already understood, but he didn't say anything, just looked at Gu Yuanqin and asked.
Gu Yuanqin smiled: "My cousin is a smart person, so why do you ask me? I only know that that account book is very important to the crown prince." These days, I have heard that the prince can't eat well and can't sleep well, just thinking about this account book. If we can help the prince solve such a troublesome matter, do you think the prince can still believe in your ability?"
Yu Xiaotong's eyes lit up immediately.
Actually, stealing the ledger is not a difficult task. What are the people of Dali Temple, he is a martial champion, and he doesn't pay attention to these low-level officials at all.
So, he said aloud: "Cousin Qin, please rest assured, at this time tomorrow, I will definitely take the account book and put it in front of you, and you will wait for my good news." ”
Gu Yuanqin smiled so much that his eyebrows stretched completely: "Okay, I'll wait here for my cousin's good news." (To be continued.) )
