Chapter 67: The Secret Room Discovered
Chapter 67: The Secret Room Discovery
"My lord, my subordinates also found that there seems to be a secret room in Aobai's study, and no one has been sent to investigate it yet."
Just when Wei Xiaobao and Duolong were dividing up more than a dozen concubines in the Aobai Mansion, and they seemed to be a little happy, there was a new discovery below.
"Huh?"
seemed to realize something, looking at the two people not far away, Su Chen's eyes moved slightly.
"Take me down and have a look!"
"Yes!"
When Su Chen announced that he would distribute 100,000 taels of silver to these people, the officers and soldiers present were all very happy, and their good feelings for Su Chen, the chief officer they had never met, almost reached the full value.
Hearing Su Chen's order, this Qing soldier also took Su Chen to the study without hesitation......
"Open it!"
"Yes!"
Naturally, someone opened the secret room and was the first to enter to check if there was any danger such as a mechanism.
"My lord, everything is safe inside!"
After making sure that there was no danger, Su Chen walked into it and looked at it.
There are not many collections in the secret room, Ao Bai is also a martial artist, naturally there will be no more precious calligraphy and paintings, and there is no gold and silver property, in addition to two flintlock muskets that look a little retro, there are two books, one of which reads "Thirteen Taibao Henglian Golden Bell Jar", and the other is "Forty-two Chapters".
Other than that...... There is also a box full of pearls, which are larger than longan, each round and full, full of luster.
In addition to these things, Su Chen found a horse coat style, as if it was a dress made of gold wire, which seemed to be the golden silk soft armor that protected Wei Xiaobao in danger many times in the plot!
"Good stuff!"
There was almost no hesitation, and Su Chen also changed the golden silk soft armor to himself.
After all, he doesn't have any martial arts now, at most he has learned a few tricks to capture kung fu, maybe one day he will meet a master of Aobai's level, but he won't have such good luck!
As for these two muskets, Su Chen was a little disdainful.
Although the musket of this era still has a lot of power, it is simply funny for those martial arts masters.
"Hey, I can't imagine that Ao Bai is still hiding a secret room here?"
"Brother Su, what did you find?"
Soon, Su Chen's side did not hide from Duo Long and Wei Xiaobao, but at this time, he also put away the golden silk soft armor and the "Forty-two Chapters Sutra", pointed to the pearl and flintlock musket and said: "It's a pity that in this secret room, in addition to the martial arts cheats of Ao Bai's cultivation, only these two things are the most valuable. ”
"Forget about pearls, but forget about foreign guns...... I'm not interested, so let's take it with the two adults. ”
Looking at the two flintlock muskets, Doron also took the initiative to withdraw from the allocation.
"In that case, Xiaobao, you can put away these two muskets!"
casually pushed the two muskets to Wei Xiaobao's side, and Su Chen also left the secret room.
"Two copies of the Forty-Two Chapters Sutra have already arrived...... There is still the book in the hands of the little emperor, as well as Wu Sangui's. ”
The little emperor is okay to say.
Although it was in the palace, Su Chen still had a way to get it.
But Wu Sangui......
The latter is still in his Pingxi Palace, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, and it is impossible for Su Chen to go all the way to the other party's mansion to steal the "Forty-two Chapters Sutra".
"I can only hope that Wu Sangui, a restless guy, can send his son to ask for marriage earlier!"
Thinking of the plot, Wu Sangui, who has always been ambitious, sent his son Wu Yingxiong to the capital after learning that Kangxi successfully pressed Ao Bai into the prison and grasped the power of the court, so he sent his son Wu Yingxiong to the capital to calm the heart of the little emperor.
It's good to delay time and be fully prepared for your own rebellion!
…………
"How can this be justified, it's a bastard!"
In the palace, when Su Chen, Duolong, and Wei Xiaobao sent the accounts of Ao Bai's family to the palace for Kangxi to see, the latter was also furious.
Of course......
Naturally, this account was revised, and the amount was only more than three million.
But it was such a amount, but it also made Kangxi angry: "Damn, Ao Bai really deserves to die, three million taels of silver, enough to have the amount of my Qing treasury for three years, and I was so full of my own pockets!" If it weren't for Ao Bai's death, I would have divided his five horses! ”
"Your Majesty is angry!"
Seeing Kangxi's angry look, the three of them were also weak for a while.
After all, there are three of them, but one of them took 10 million taels of silver, if Kangxi knew about it......
exchanged glances with each other, whether it was Su Chen, Duo Long, or Wei Xiaobao, they all planned to keep this secret!
"That's right, Su Aiqing!"
As if thinking of something, Kangxi also spoke: "This time, the three of you have made a meritorious contribution to raiding the house, and I will reward each of you with 100,000 taels of silver, and ...... Su Aiqing, as my Daqing Jing Amber, I should reward you with a house, huh...... The former prince's mansion has been uninhabited for a long time, and I have ordered someone to repair it, so I will give it to you. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Duolong and Wei Xiaobao on the side were also envious.
Prince's Palace.
According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, there are strict requirements for the mansions of officials, and once they exceed the system, they will naturally be severely punished.
So even if the two of them are rich, they don't dare to get themselves a mansion of the prince's mansion in a place like the capital!
Subsequently.
Su Chen also saw his prince's mansion...... No, it should be said that it is Jing'anbo Mansion.
This place is really as Kangxi said, it has been renovated, but such a big house, it is indeed a bit empty to live alone.
There are not even a few basic furnishings except for some flowers and plants in the garden.
"Hey, sure enough, the former prince's mansion is indeed a bit magnificent!"
"It's just a bit of space, and it's a little bit lacking in life."
"What's so hard about that?"
Duolong on the side said: "There are many servants who meet the requirements in all the tooth shops in the capital, and there are some innocent maids, if Lord Su doesn't mind, I can also go to the tooth shop on your behalf to choose some maids and the like to enrich the house." ”
"It's okay, then it's going to be troublesome Brother Duolong!"
Su Chen nodded, but he didn't mind Duolong's overtures.
As for Wei Xiaobao.
After the latter left the palace, he also returned to Lichun Courtyard for the first time and began to show off.
As the saying goes, wealth does not return to the hometown, such as brocade clothes at night.
Although Wei Xiaobao may not have heard this sentence, he also knows the truth very well.
So as soon as he returned to Lichun Courtyard, Wei Xiaobao also opened the way with all kinds of money, dressed like a dog, with ten fingers, and also wore a big gold ring, interpreting the three words nouveau riche to the fullest!
