Chapter 323: The Great Gold Robbery

The time soon came to December, the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, approaching the Spring Festival, Chang'an looked happy on his face, whether it was the ministers, or the people, the royal relatives were preparing how to spend this Spring Festival, what programs should there be.

What should I buy, or what gifts should I give to those adults, so that I can have a better year, be promoted and get rich, and some are calculating what I have done this year and how much I have been rewarded.

These people are not the most worried, the most worrying people are in Chang'an, in the Chang'an Palace, in a certain palace, a graceful figure sat up from the bed, stretched out a pair of snow-white jade legs, looked very tempting in the light veil, salivating, the legs are not fat or thin, the length is just right, looking at the itching, after this figure has put on his shoes.

She stood up, her hand moved slightly, a palace maid walked up, pushed open the gauze curtain, and the other hand held the hand of this graceful woman, and walked out gently, the lotus step swayed, the posture was beautiful, every move, all exuded a kind of female temptation, graceful body, not fat or thin, more than too much, less too little, no more, no less, no more, no less.

She came to the edge of the table, the palace maid pulled out a chair, sat down for her, and quickly poured a cup of tea, still warm, after the woman drank a sip, she slowly put it down, her movements were very elegant, her lazy demeanor looked very pitiful, and her fingers moved.

The palace maid quickly replied: "Hui Niang Chapter 323 The Great Gold Robbery Mother, there is no big movement on His Royal Highness the Prince's side, every day is like that, either he comes to the palace or goes home, except for these two places, he does not go to other places, and even eats in the Prince's Mansion, as for His Royal Highness Li Xian, he is still studying in the Guozi Prison, learning all kinds of knowledge with the bosses, and not paying attention to things outside." ”

She paused, looked at the woman, found that she had no expression, and continued: "As for His Royal Highness Li Zhe, who is far away in Luling, he is still restless, and he has made a kind of rice wine, which is said to be very delicious, and the palace is now using his rice wine, and the slave maid received the news, he and the four major families united this time to jointly run Luling, and Luling has changed greatly, and it is said that it is all the credit of His Royal Highness Li Zhe." ”

Saying that, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, hidden very secretly, and she was not seen by the woman, the woman listened to the maid's report, and when she talked about the prince Li Hong, her expression remained unchanged, and when Li Xian was even more unresponsive, she was so cold that people couldn't find their heads, but when it came to the last person Li Zhe, she was moved.

Her expression changed, her pupils were much deeper, gloom crawled up her face, and her fingers began to shake the table indiscriminately, once, twice, three times, after three consecutive beats, she stopped and said, "Cui Lu Wang Xie?" ”

"Yes, Niangniang, it is the four families of Cuilu Wang Xie, they followed His Royal Highness Li Zhe to Luling, as if they knew in advance that it was profitable over there, and they arrived at that place before Li Zhe, I think it may be that those people in their family have that meaning."

The little palace maid said her inner guess, and her calm face didn't know how big an earthquake her words would cause if they were spread out, stirring up the wind and clouds, Wu Meiniang heard her guess, lowered her head, stared at the teacup, and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

The little maid stood beside her, motionless and watching her reaction, seeing her bow her head and silent, followed by silence, her little hands and small body stood there, almost as tall as the person, even if it was a little higher, she tried to lower her body as much as possible, not to let herself be higher than her, this small action looked insignificant, but it actually saved her life countless times.

She knew how terrifying the woman beside her was, as soon as she opened her mouth slightly, there were not one or two people who died, but a dozen or so, her family was all dead after she opened her mouth, leaving her alone seedling, such a person, how could she be higher than her.

"How do you respond?"

A faint sentence made the little maid stunned for a moment, quickly sorted out her thoughts, and said: "The above has no intention of letting him come back, it seems that they don't want him to come back here to stir up the storm." ”

"Did you give a decree?"

"It's already down, and I'll be in Luling in the next few days."

The little maid has questions and answers, she knows everything, and the things she wants to ask are clear and clear, not perfunctory, nor concealed, except for the secret words buried in her heart, they are all trayed out.

"Well, that's good, you go and send someone to go to Luling."

"Yes."

The little girl's heart tightened, and she lowered her head to answer, the woman thought about it, felt unreliable, and said again: "Wait a minute." ”

"What else does the mother command?"

"Let's go and meet how capable this son of this palace is?"

The little maid's expression finally changed, she became gloomy, hesitating, hesitating for less than a second, and knelt down: "Niangniang, but the little one is not well served, so that Niangniang is uncomfortable, and you want to drive the slave and maid away?" ”

Looking at the little girl who kept kowtowing in front of her, Wu Meiniang raised her hand and said, "Wan'er, this palace is not for you to die, but for you to go and investigate, and see what the son of this palace is going to do?" The four major families have gathered silently, does he want to oppose the main palace? When others go, the palace is not at ease, but you, Wan'er, the palace is the most relieved. ”

After hearing Wu Zetian's explanation, the maid named Wan'er relieved her tension and responded: "Niangniang, the slave knows it, and the slave will definitely live up to the expectations of the mother." ”

"Well, let's go down."

The maid went down, Wu Meiniang looked at her departing figure, the corners of her mouth curled, and sneered: "This palace wants to see if you are really loyal to this palace." ”

……………………

In Luling County, Li Yuan held a letter in his hand, his face changed several times, sometimes heavy, sometimes melancholy, sometimes angry, sometimes helpless, this letter was first opened in his hand, a complete piece of paper, and then turned into a crumpled piece of waste paper, and he couldn't see what was written on it.

In an instant, he spread out the piece of paper again, and scanned it carefully, once was not enough, and looked at it again, it was still like that, nothing had changed, it was a fait accompli, so why be sad.

He finally confirmed the facts, turned his head to look at the embarrassed man kneeling on the ground, about thirty years old, there was still dust on his body, his face was covered with blood, and the clothes on his body had a foul smell, which could be smelled from afar, Li Yuan was not in the mood to care about this, and asked coldly: "Is this thing true?" ”

The man kowtowed, didn't speak, and saw his heart on his guilty face, Li Yuan didn't want to see him kowtow like this, it didn't help, and continued to ask: "The official asked you about the matter, answer quickly, the official doesn't want to talk nonsense with you, your fault, and then I will find you to settle it, you tell the matter first." ”

The man finally raised his head, the adult did not kill him, saved his life, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, he began to recall: "That day, we took the waterway, you also know, Luling can pass through Poyang Lake and reach Yuzhou (now known as Nanchang, I don't know if I remember wrong. ), and then come to Luling from Yuzhou, this is the fastest way. ”

"We plan to bring back the young master's silver and goods by water as soon as possible, who knows when we cross Chiyang Mountain, oh, Chiyang Mountain is a dense forest, inaccessible to people, there is only one road to pass, and we met robbers on this road."

His expression began to hesitate, and he stopped talking, Li Yuan saw his abnormality, and shouted: "Let's be clear, what kind of mountain is Chiyang Mountain?" Why have you never heard of it, you can't be deceiving you? ”

Li Yuan was angry, these damn guys, shouldn't they have swallowed the young master's goods alone, that is unforgivable, and they even want to find some robbers to perfunctory me.

"Hmph."

With a cold snort, the person's body contracted, he hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke: "My lord, things are not what you think, your subordinates have not deceived you, your subordinates don't dare to monopolize the young master's goods, your subordinates' families are still in your hands, how dare your subordinates do such things, this time it's really incredible!" ”

Li Yuan thought about it, too, their families are in his hands, give them a hundred dares, they don't dare to act like this, they don't need to deceive themselves, but what's the unbelievable, isn't it just that they were robbed?

"Hurry up."

Li Yuan is about to lose that patience, at this time, such a thing has happened, he can't help but worry, something happened near the end of the year, he can't afford this sin, the young master is angry, he can't bear it.

The man saw that the adult was angry, and he didn't dare to hesitate, and said: "My lord, it's not that I don't want to investigate the case and look for the goods, but I can't find them, and those goods have disappeared out of thin air, and the evil is causing trouble." ”

"Hmph, you dare to bewitch the public in front of Lord Ben, are you tired of living, believe it or not, Lord Ben killed you with a knife." In anger, Li Yuan pulled out a sword and put it on the man's neck, so cold that he almost cut off his head, and the man panicked.

"Big ...... My lord, no...... It's not that your subordinates deceive you, but ...... It's true...... It's incredible, I'm ......, and you'll find out if you go to that place. ”

He was hesitant, and he didn't say a reason for a long time, Li Yuan was even more puzzled, what kind of character did his subordinates have, he knew that looking at him like that, it didn't look like a trivial matter, he withdrew his long sword, and said coldly: "This official will go with you for the time being, if this official finds out that you dare to deceive this official, this official will let you know what it means to kill people." ”

"My lord, let's come with the little one, things are really troublesome, and the demons are doing it, my lord."

He kept emphasizing this, and in every word, Li Yuan was even more curious, what was it like that made them so panicked.
