Chapter 363: The Origin of the Secret Passage
Watching King Rui leave, Gu Yunxin picked up the pillow beside him and smashed it, "Really, can't you wait for someone to finish speaking?"
What was found in the secret passage, she couldn't casually tell others about the things she found in the secret passage.
"Red silk, red ling."
"Master."
"That...... Are the two of them still around? Gu Yun said in a huff.
Hearing this, Hongxuan hooked her lips slightly, "Yes, does the master want to see them?" ”
"Well, I want them to tell the prince about the situation in the secret passage, but the identities of both of them have been exposed, will it be ...... if they appear again" Gu Yunxin worried.
"The master doesn't have to worry, the Netherworld Pavilion has its own way of transmitting information, they can't see the prince directly, but they can see the slaves and maids and Mo Feng." Hongxuan said lightly.
"Well, then I'm relieved." Gu Yunxin said lightly.
Xiangzhi and Lanzhi, who were guarding outside, were in a very complicated mood at this time, "Lanzhi, do you say that the princess doesn't like me anymore?" ”
"Sister Xiangzhi, how could it be, you were the first to serve the princess, how well the princess treated you." Laneige said with a wink.
"But now, the princess is looking for the two sisters Hongxuan and Hongling, isn't it that I'm too useless." Xiangzhi said in a dejected manner.
"The princess likes to eat the osmanthus cake made by her sister the most, and I am the most useless." This time it was Laneige's turn to hang his head down.
Gu Yunxin couldn't hear the conversation between the two, but for Hongxuan and Hongling, who had high internal strength in martial arts, they could hear it clearly.
"Master, Xiangzhi and Lanzhi feel that they can't help and blame themselves. You better do more things for them, lest these two girls want to be crooked. Hongxuan reminded softly.
Hearing Hongxuan say this, Gu Yunxin bowed slightly, indeed, she really ignored these two girls these days.
"Xiangzhi Laneige."
Hearing Gu Yunxin's call, Xiangzhi and Lanzhi outside the door hurriedly walked into the house and saluted, "I've seen the princess, what does the princess command?" ”
"From tomorrow onwards, we will cook porridge for those affected villagers, you two are the ones who have followed me the longest and know my thoughts the most, and I am very relieved to leave it to you." Gu Yunxin said softly.
"Yes, the slaves and maids will definitely do a good job, the princess can rest assured." Xiangzhi cried with joy.
originally thought that the princess would not like them in the future, but now the princess will hand over such an important thing to them to do, which shows that they are still useful in the princess's heart.
"Princess, otherwise, let the slave maid take the people in the house to do it, Sister Xiangzhi still needs to take care of you." Laneige said lightly.
"You're going with me."
"But yesterday you were also frightened, and Sister Hongling also wants you to have a good rest." Laneige Road.
"Yes, master, you better rest and rest, we also have the soup kitchen, Xiangzhi and Lanzhi are both careful people, and it is most appropriate to stay in the house to take care of the master." Hongling said lightly.
"Okay then, I'll stay in the house and rest." Gu Yunxin said lightly.
On the other side, Yu Rui and Huang Biao had already told King Rui about the secret passage, and no one thought that there was a huge armory hidden in the secret passage. There are even a lot of gold jewelry as military assets.
Looking at the boxes of yellow, who were blinded
Gold and jewelry, Ling Xiao couldn't help but swallow his saliva, "Lord Wang, so much gold and jewelry, let alone rebuilding homes for the people affected by the disaster, even if it is enough to restore the country." ”
"What are you talking nonsense, boy? What kind of restoration? If these words are heard, I don't know how to charge our prince. Mo Feng said in a deep voice.
"Isn't it that I'm too surprised to see these things, I must not have said a word to the outside world." Ling Xiao scratched his head and said.
At that time, Dingwang was in the palace.
King Ding was like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth in the study.
"Lord Wang, don't be too anxious, didn't we send someone to investigate." Xiao Sirui said softly.
"How can you not be in a hurry? Now that King Rui has sent people to surround it, I can't get anything out of it. King Ding said angrily.
I knew that he wouldn't have done much to deal with Gu Yunxin with Gu Peiqing's idiot, now it's okay, King Rui sent troops to surround the temple, he really made a wedding dress for others.
If the money is taken by King Rui, then that's it. But if he sends all those silver coins to his father, it will be a great achievement, and maybe his father will change his mind and give the crown prince to King Rui.
"Lord Wang, don't be too anxious, no matter what you say, it's just a rumor, maybe they haven't found anything." Xiao Ziming stood with his hands in his hands.
"Why didn't you find out, you must have discovered something, otherwise how could King Rui send troops to surround that temple so quickly, and they are all people he cultivated single-handedly, these people are not something you and I can order." King Ding said solemnly.
"Lord Wang, you can't help but think too highly of King Rui, right? She is already a cripple, and didn't her father say that she wants to choose the crown prince between you and King Xiang? In addition to the fact that King Xiang is a descendant of the main palace, the others cannot be compared with you at all. King Rui is already crippled, so wouldn't making him the crown prince a joke for the monarchs and ministers of other countries? Princess Ding pouted.
"Hmph, what do you know? This king shouldn't have listened to Gu Peiqing's instigation to deal with Gu Yunxin, otherwise, she wouldn't have discovered the secret passage by mistake. King Ding glanced at Gu Peiqing and said.
Hearing that King Ding put all the responsibility on himself, Gu Peiqing was really sick to death. It's no wonder that she, it's obvious that King Ding wants to frustrate King Rui's prestige, then Gu Yunxin is King Rui's weakness, and dealing with him is naturally the best way to fight King Rui.
The people he sent are incompetent, so who can blame them? Even if Gu Peiqing has a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart now, he can't justify himself.
Xiao Ziming glanced at Gu Peiqing, and understood in his heart that Gu Peiqing could not be blamed for this matter, this time Gu Yunxin was safe, he believed that it was not luck, but that King Rui had already sent someone to protect Gu Yunxin in secret.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ziming looked at Su Lang, who was standing aside and had never spoken, "Su Lang, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Hearing Xiao Ziming call himself, Su Lang got up and arched his hand and said, "What the prince said is right, rumors are rumors after all, let's wait for the news first." ”
Although Su Lang is a strategist, he never disdains to use dirty means to achieve his goals, he has always acted as a big husband worthy of the sky and the earth, but in order to achieve their goals, these people in front of him will not even let go of a pregnant woman, is such a person really worthy of his own assistance?
King Ding glanced at Su Lang, and there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart.
What kind of strategist is this, who will only say a word and wait for news? Who wouldn't say that? Do you want him to talk about it?
But first of all, Su Lang is their brainchild, and they can't be easily offended, at least until he has no use value.
"Lord Wang, what are the rumors you are talking about?" Princess Ding wondered.
"It's better for Ziming, you can talk about it." After speaking, King Ding turned around and sat on the main seat, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Xiao Ziming bowed slightly, and then said lightly: "It is rumored that the ancestor of the emperor of the previous dynasty had a national teacher, and he was good at watching the heavens to determine good fortune and evil. He once said that the third generation of the emperor of the previous dynasty would die in the country, so he built a secret passage in the national temple, and stored a large number of gold, silver and jewelry for emergencies. After the royal family of the previous dynasty was destroyed, the treasures were gone. The founding emperor of our Great Zhou Dynasty also ordered someone to search for it, but he didn't find any secret passages, so he didn't do it. ”
"Oh? And such a thing? But I've never heard my father say that. Princess Ding frowned.
"Lin Xiang is cautious, and if he is not completely sure of something, it is normal for Lin Xiang not to say it." Xiao Ziming said lightly.
"So according to you, it's not a rumor, it's true? If it's true, then wouldn't a large sum of money become Ruiwang's? Princess Ding raised her voice.
"You just know, hmph, I get angry just thinking about this king." Ding Wang angrily put the tea bowl in his hand on the table beside him.
"Lord, don't worry, if there is really such a large amount of money, he will not dare to swallow it privately, if he pays the treasury, it is not a bad thing, if he swallows it privately, we just deduct him for embezzling national funds, such a crime, even if his father does not kill him, his throne will not be saved." Princess Ding sneered.
Hearing this, King Ding was slightly stunned, and said in his heart that this woman is not a fool, but he thought that this money was used to recruit troops and buy horses, and he handed over the treasury, so where did he get the money to recruit troops and horses?
"What are you talking about, that the money is handed over to the treasury, and the king still has money?" King Ding said angrily.
Seeing that King Ding was angry, Princess Ding was not angry, but just hooked her lips slightly, "Lord, don't be angry first, and listen to the concubine slowly." ”
King Ding saw that Princess Ding showed a smug smile, and then slowed down his voice and said, "Princess, say quickly." ”
"Lord, since my father plans to choose the crown prince between you and King Xiang, if the money goes into the treasury, won't it be equivalent to going into your pocket? What we should be most worried about is that King Rui has embezzled the money. Princess Ding said softly.
Listening to Princess Ding's analysis, King Ding's face also raised a smile, I have to say that Princess Ding's analysis is very right, King Rui is the heart of his father, and he himself is a very cautious person, it is not easy to deal with him.
If that money goes into the treasury, he only needs to concentrate on dealing with King Xiang, as long as King Xiang falls, he enters the East Palace, and wants some money to train his army, isn't it simple?
"Aifei, I really didn't expect you to hide it. But even if King Rui really embezzled that money, we have no evidence. King Ding frowned.
"So, we now have to determine the truth of this matter, if it is false, we can also design it to be true, so that King Rui has a hard time arguing." Princess Ding sneered.
At this moment, the person sent by Xiao Ziming to investigate came back, and everyone's eyes were focused on that person, and everyone was thinking about what the ending would be......
