Chapter 69: Ruthless and empty

Xinggong Station.

Orchid had just woken up, and her expression was still a little sluggish.

"Hu Ji, when I catch Hua Yu, I will let him make amends for you!"

"That's it, don't be upset!"

"It's too cheap for him to make amends, and divide him into five horses!"

"Yes, yes, yes...... Oh no, how can you be so cruel! ”

"It's all cheap!"

The Gao brothers all looked at the ruthless Yunkongkong, and swallowed their saliva with fearful expressions.

"Poofβ€”"

This action finally made Orchid burst into tears and laughed.

"Newspaperβ€”"

At this time, an attendant suddenly came to report from outside the door.

"What's the matter?"

"Lord Gao, it's not good, something big has happened in the Dongqi Palace, and the Dongqi Kingdom Lord is dead!"

"What?"

When a few people hurried to the scene, they saw that the lord of Dongqi was lying in a pool of blood, and there was a wax-sealed secret letter beside him.

Gao Lingxiao inspected the deceased and said: "A knife is fatal, I can't confirm whether he killed or committed suicide, by the way, what does the letter say, it won't say that he committed suicide in fear of crime, right?!" ”

Gao Minglang frowned and looked at Gao Lingxiao, and said, "No, it was Hua Lindong who killed him!" ”

"It's no wonder that I imprisoned the lord of a city for twenty years, and also killed other people's wives and children, it's me, and I won't let him go."

"The letter also said that over the years, Ye Gucheng has seized the old city lord of Hua and blackmailed Ye Chengcheng and Hua Yu to mine purple iron for Dongqi for free, these things are exactly the same as what Hua Yushi said, but he stated in the letter that Ye Gucheng was not a rebellion, but he was greedy for money, and most of those purple iron were sold by Ye Gucheng."

"Sold? Ghost letter, so much purple iron, who are you selling it to? When was it sold? Does the letter say anything? ”

Gao Minglang continued to read the letter, and after reading it, his brows were deeply locked.

"How is this possible? With so much purple iron, who dares to hide it privately? The letter said that it was sold piecemeal, and he would sell it at a high price, including royal nobles, martial arts people, children of families, people in the rivers and lakes, and even wealthy merchants! ”

"Ahh So this ...... Isn't it a needle in a haystack? If Emperor Hu asks, how can we deal with it! ”

Gao Minglang said with a smile: "We use silver to pay the difference!" Follow me. ”

Several people followed Gao Minglang to Ye Gucheng's dormitory, Gao Minglang looked around, and then vigorously rotated the carved bedpost of the dragon bed.

Everyone only heard a "boom", and the entire bed collapsed instantly, and a deep black hole appeared.

Everyone looked at each other.

Orchid asked curiously, "Where is this?" ”

Gao Minglang said: "According to the letter, this is the treasure pavilion of Ye Gucheng, and it was also a dungeon where Hua Lindong was imprisoned, everyone be careful." ”

Several people jumped into the corridor one after another, only to find that the corridor was dark and long, and there were extremely open treasure troves on both sides of the corridor.

The treasure house is divided into three rooms, the one on the left is calligraphy and painting, brush and ink, antique jade, rare treasures, etc.

The middle is the largest, and it is full of wooden boxes, which are stacked in full stacks, not to mention seven or eight hundred boxes, and the whole box is full of gold.

In the room on the far right, there are countless blades, among which the purple iron material is the mainstay, these blades are forged by famous masters at a glance, and the eighteen weapons of purple iron sword, purple iron bow, purple iron knife, and purple iron dagger are complete.

Hu Ji picked up a purple iron dagger inlaid with gems and exclaimed, "Such a gorgeous dagger, I don't know if it's useful?" ”

"Be carefulβ€”"

Hu Ji quickly pulled out his blade, and a purple light slashed out along the force, and a deep crack appeared on the originally flat stone wall in an instant.

Gao Minglang breathed a long sigh of relief: "This purple iron is cast into a weapon, not only blows hair and breaks hair, but also has its own sword qi, so you must use it carefully......"

Hu Ji sighed: "This purple iron is really magical, no wonder it can be exchanged for such a treasure house, I think the wealth here is not much better than the treasure pavilion of the dynasty." But this Dongqi is already very rich, why does Ye Gucheng still want to collect money? He wants so much silver, he can't eat or drink, and he has to kill people at critical moments, I really don't understand! ”

Gao Minglang said with a smile: "In the eyes of greedy people, no amount of gold and silver treasures is too much, but I didn't expect Ye Gucheng to dare to use purple iron to collect money, and finally end up like this!" It is also deserved!"

Gao Lingxiao sneered, "Hehe, but in the eyes of some people, no matter how much gold and silver treasure is not as important as the position of power, even if we hand over all the property here to Emperor Hu, it will be difficult to offset the sin of the disappearance of a large amount of purple iron." ”

When Hu Ji heard Minglang teasing Emperor Hu, she was displeased: "Ling Xiao, how can you say that about my father!" I believe that he is a sovereign who knows right from wrong, and believe me, my father will not reproach you. ”

Gao Minglang: "It's hard to say, after all, a large amount of purple iron has been lost, which has undoubtedly become a hidden danger for the dynasty, Your Majesty should be guilty, but I am afraid that he will be suspicious of us!" ”

Gao Lingxiao nodded and said: "Minglang is right, so much purple iron is enough to shake the foundation of the dynasty, even if Emperor Hu is suspicious, it is human nature!" ”

Hu Ji said disdainfully: "You guys think too much! And then there's me! I will tell the truth to my father, don't worry! ”

……

A few days later.

"Lang Lang, is there any whereabouts of my brother when it rains?"

The Eastern Qi Emperor Ye Gucheng is dead, a large amount of Zitie is missing, and the insider Hua Yushi has been missing for many days, and the Gao brothers are in a stalemate.

Gao Minglang had just returned, and Hu Ji couldn't wait to ask.

Before Gao Minglang could reply, Gao Lingxiao, who followed him, mocked: "It's all this time, you still have the name of your brother when it rains, and your brother when it rains, it's really not a long memory!" ”

Orchid puffed out her cheeks and said, "Hmph! I just want to find him sooner so that I can question him face to face and get angry, can't I? ”

Gao Lingxiao: "Really? ”

Orchid: "It really can't be true! ”

Gao Minglang smiled: "It's best if Orchid doesn't get involved in this relationship!" If the time comes, it will be impossible to get rid of the lost purple iron and flower rain......"

Orchid: "Definitely not, even if he is fickle and disguised, but my feelings never deceive me, I don't believe he has never loved me, I must find him and ask him clearly." ”

Gao Lingxiao was even more disdainful, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's all this time, what else is there to ask?" Orchid ...... What's wrong with you!"

Gao Lingxiao suddenly became nervous as he saw Hu Ji's pale face and the pain that flashed in his eyes.

"Vomit ......"

Hu Ji was already in a depressed mood, and was talking, when he suddenly felt his stomach churning, retching constantly, and then the abdominal pain was unbearable, so frightened that Gao Lingxiao stepped forward and picked him up.

Gao Minglang was also taken aback, and said anxiously: "Is there still residual poison?" It shouldn't be! I'm going to find Senior Brother Kongkong. ”

Gao Lingxiao put Hu Ji on the bed, and after a while, Gao Minglang called Yun Kongkong.

At this moment, the orchid had fainted in pain.
