"It turns out that the princess is here for my Yu family's gold mine." Yu Zhongjun's eyes were a little hollow because he couldn't see at night, but his brows were tightly locked, and he could vaguely see the green tendons on his forehead, "Princess and ...... In the palace, it's really painstaking. ”

Yu Ruoxu heard Yu Zhongjun's voice and knew that he was already extremely angry, so he quickly got up from the bushes, and there was some dirt on the corners of his skirt, "Daddy." “

Xu Xiao'e and Yun Bi heard Yu Ruoxu's voice, the two of them were shocked, and in a panic, Xu Xiao'e said sarcastically, "I didn't expect Miss Yu to have a hobby of eavesdropping." ”

"Compared to the princess's penchant of trespassing into other people's rooms, Ruoxu is nothing." Yu Ruoxu walked up to Yu Zhongjun and held his arm, "Daddy, what should I do now?" ”

"You ......" Xu Xiao'e froze, "You dare to talk to me like this?!" “

Yu Ruoxu glanced at her, anyway, it was already the end of the crossbow, so let her make a fuss again.

"Xianggong, don't get me wrong." Xu Xiao'e knew that something was wrong, so she stood aside and muttered. Yun Bi pulled her sleeve and glanced at her, Xu Xiao'e hurriedly lowered her voice, and her soft voice floated in the backyard, "Xianggong, let's go back to the room if we have something, how bad it is to be in front of so many people now......"

So many people?

Yu Ruoxu looked around, except for Pei Changyuan, Xiu'er and Yun Bi, no one else was present.

"The people present are all trustworthy subordinates, and there is no need to shy away from it, the lower officials have something to explain to the princess directly, and they don't have to go back to the house again." Yu Zhongjun's tone was cold, and he even changed his title, "Xia Guan just wants to ask the princess, what is the purpose of the queen mother letting the princess steal the account book of the Yu family's gold mine?" “

Xu Xiao'e was stunned, knowing that she couldn't prevaricate, and glanced at Yunbi. Yun Bi hurriedly stepped forward and knelt in front of Yu Zhongjun, "Back to my lord, this qiē was done by the queen mother to blackmail our princess, the princess has a heart for the adult, the world can be learned, and please don't blame our princess!" “

Yu Zhongjun followed the voice and glanced down at Yun Bi, "The Queen Mother wants to coerce?" ”

"Exactly!" Yun Bi nodded, her voice trembling slightly, "The princess is infatuated with adults, and she once entered the palace to beg the queen mother, hoping that the queen mother can be an adult and give the princess a marriage to an adult." However, the queen mother took this as a condition and forced the princess to find the gold mine account book and send it to the palace after entering the palace. The princess had no choice but to agree to the queen mother's request, which was also forced by the form, and please don't blame the princess! “

Yu Ruoxu rarely heard Yun Bi say so many words, but she felt very fresh in her heart, "Oh? Then what you just said was sent over one day earlier, and the rivers and mountains of Nanyue could be saved one day earlier, how can this be explained? ”

Yun Bi paused and said, "This is because ...... The queen mother was afraid that the princess would refuse to cooperate, so she threatened the princess and said that if the princess didn't send the account book earlier, she would send troops to the southeast and point directly at our Nanyue country! If the ledger was sent over a day earlier, the crisis on the border of South Vietnam would be resolved as soon as possible, so the slave maid was in a hurry and said something like that. ”

Yu Ruoxu didn't believe a word at all, but she admired Yun Bi for being able to make up this true and false paragraph in such a short period of time. Yu Zhongjun raised his eyebrows, "So the Queen Mother wants the Yu family's account book, what does she want?" ”

"The princess was also coerced, and the queen mother naturally would not tell the princess the real purpose of sending the account book to the palace." Yun Bi nodded, "One day husband and wife for one hundred days, please read it for the princess's sake, spare the princess!" ”

Yu Zhongjun smiled in a low voice, "One day husband and wife hundred days? Dedicated to me? Well? ”

Xu Xiao'e's voice was a little crying, "Xianggong, the concubine body is really forced, but the affection for Xianggong is not fake, and it will ...... in the future In the future, the concubine can also be the internal response of the prime minister by the side of the queen mother, help the prime minister inquire about the news, and never dare to deceive the prime minister! “

When Yu Ruoxu heard this, he turned his head to look at Yu Zhongjun, only to see that his jaw was tight, his hands were clenched into fists, and he never let go. She sighed and said in a low voice, "Daddy, she is the princess of Nanyue after all......"

Xu Xiao'e is a princess of the country, he is a second-class courtier, and he can't help her no matter what.

Not to mention...... There is also a queen mother behind her, who wants to calculate the Yu family.

"The Father knows." After a while, Yu Zhongjun said slowly, "Don't go out during this time, princess, let's cultivate yourself at home." The housekeeping in the house is still handed over to the housekeeper to take care of, so you can take a good rest, and don't let me see what tricks you play! “

Xu Xiao'e was stunned, looking aggrieved, "Xianggong ......"

"Master Xie." Yun Bi kowtowed deeply, and glanced at Xu Xiao'e again, Xu Xiao'e nodded reluctantly, "The concubine knows." “

"It's not early, if you send the princess back." Yu Ruoxu said suddenly.

"You?" Xu Xiao'e snorted coldly, "You look like this, who are you going to show it to?" ”

"Don't get me wrong, princess, it's all a family, why be so polite." Yu Ruoxu stepped forward and respectfully blessed his body, "Let's go." “

Xu Xiao'e gritted her teeth, glanced at Yu Zhongjun again, and walked towards the main house angrily.

Yu Ruoxu followed behind Xu Xiao'e and Yun Bi, feeling a little funny in her heart. When the three of them walked to the door of the house, Xu Xiao'e opened the door and said in a mocking tone, "What, does Miss Yu still want to come in for a cup of tea?" It's a pity that we are now under house arrest and can't afford to entertain anything good, so Miss Yu should please go back. “

"It's getting late, if you have self-knowledge, you don't dare to bother at will." Yu Ruoxu smiled, "I didn't expect the lord of Nanyue to be so generous and send two daughters over, Ruoxu is here to thank the lord for his love." “

Xu Xiao'e was taken aback and said sharply, "What did you say?" ”

"Nothing." Yu Ruoxu raised her eyes and saw Yun Bi glancing at her hatefully, and her heart became a little more determined, "Also, in exchange, I'm afraid it's not the princess's marriage, right?" ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Xu Xiao'e looked frightened as if she had been poked in her heart, "If you have something to say, just say it, don't play dumb riddles with this princess here!" ”

Yu Ruoxu lowered his head, "Ruoxu doesn't dare." is more exposed, and Ruoxu retired first. With that, he left the east courtyard without looking back.

"You ......" Xu Xiao'e's angry voice floated from afar, Yu Ruoxu breathed a long sigh of relief, and she could finally go on the road with peace of mind tomorrow.

The winter night was dark and cold, Yu Ruoxu suddenly felt cold hands and feet, and hurriedly trotted a few steps, pushed open the door and entered Yu Zhongjun's study.

"Daddy." Yu Ruoxu saw Yu Zhongjun sitting on the Taishi's chair, his expression had recovered as usual, and his heart was a little more stable, "It seems that Daddy hasn't eased up yet." ”

"So that's what you want me to see." Yu Zhongjun smiled at her, "It's really thrilling." ”

"My daughter hasn't figured out why the princess of Nanyue Kingdom is here." Yu Ruoxu walked over lightly and sat beside him, "I didn't expect that there was such a deal with the Queen Mother." “

"The princess has only told half the truth." Yu Zhongjun paused and said, "For my father's sake, the Queen Mother did threaten the Nanyue Kingdom and exchanged the Yu family's gold mine account book, but the exchange conditions are definitely not the princess's favorite marriage." “

"My daughter thinks the same way." Yu Ruoxu nodded, "It should be...... Military. “

"That's right." Yu Zhongjun snorted coldly, "The imperial court can't take care of it itself now, where does the spare money come from to spend the military expenses of the South Vietnamese Kingdom?" Recently, my father saw that the Queen Mother and the Marquis of Dingyuan seemed to be confident, and I thought that there was a solution, but I didn't expect to think about our Yu family's gold mine! “

"Emperor Taizu had a decree before, saying that the Yu family has the merit of following the dragon, and as a reward, the Langzhong gold mine has been the property of the Yu family for generations, and the court cannot touch it at will." Yu Ruoxu said leisurely, "Presumably the Queen Mother also knows that there is such a will, so she can only use such a sneaky method." ”

"The Queen Mother has tried so hard this time, I'm afraid that she has the intention of occupying our Yu family's gold mine." Yu Zhongjun's words seem to have a thousand weights, "The gold mine is the foundation of our Yu family, which has lasted for more than two hundred years, and cannot be destroyed in the hands of my father." “

The daughter guessed that the agreement between the Queen Mother and Nanyue at that time should be that the princess would get the Yu family's gold mine for the Queen Mother, and as a return gift, she would naturally share some for Nanyue to save the emergency. Now that South Vietnam is in trouble at home and abroad, there is no other way but to agree. Yu Ruoxu analyzed carefully, "Let's hand over more gold to the Queen Mother on the unknown face, and see if we can stop her mouth and let her not attack us in a short time." “

Yu Zhongjun sighed and frowned slightly, "It stands to reason that our gold mine has paid enough taxes every year, and if the imperial court needs it, the clan side will also pay more according to the usual practice to solve the urgent needs of the imperial court." Not to mention the previous drought, let's just say that the current Xianbei and Guangling, one has begun to fight, and the other has also made a lot of trouble, seeing that it is about to start, the treasury is in an emergency, and the court has repeatedly cried poor, when did our Yu family hesitate? I didn't expect the Queen Mother to play a trick this time, and wanted to directly swallow the gold mine alone, which is really not enough to swallow the elephant! “

"What's more, at this juncture, two new veins have been discovered...... Yu Ruoxu was a little worried, "This temptation is too great, no one can refuse." “

"Fortunately, the account book has not yet been delivered to the Queen Mother." Yu Zhongjun showed a faint smile, "The princess can be regarded as a great favor for us. ”

Yu Ruoxu smiled in a low voice, "This can be regarded as a crooked beating." ”

"As you said, for the sake of today, the only way to do this is to hand over more gold first, and temporarily block the mouth of the Queen Mother." Yu Zhongjun lowered his head and thought about it, "The princess has a sentence that is right today, you can let her be our eyeliner by the side of the Queen Mother, at least to confirm what the Queen Mother has in mind." ”

Yu Ruoxu nodded and said, "What Daddy said makes sense...... We can calculate and send a revised account book to it, so that we can not only prevent the grass from startling the snake, but also set out the back moves in the palace. ”

"As a father, I am also thinking about this step." Yu Zhongjun's frowning brows relaxed, "Everything on the books is easy to solve." ”

For some reason, Yu Ruoxu felt a little uneasy in her heart, she thought she had guessed the truth, but it seemed that there was something deeper hidden, and she couldn't see through it or guess it.

She shook her head, probably because she had been too calculating and overly sensitive lately.

"By the way, you're leaving tomorrow morning, right?" Yu Zhongjun asked, "Have you packed everything up?" ”

"It's all set. Pei Changyuan has already prepared the carriage and will set off at dawn tomorrow. ”

Yu Zhongjun nodded, reached out to hold her shoulder, "Be careful." “

"Daddy too, we have to take this one in the house seriously, otherwise there will be endless troubles." Yu Ruoxu added, "Especially Yun Bi, she is the mastermind behind Yiqiē." “
