"I think the oracle has already told you that the treasure comes from the sea."

The crowd nodded, and that was indeed the case.

The divine envoy came from the sea, and the treasure he brought with him naturally came from the sea.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Old Man Zhang quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and continued: "That treasure old man has heard some things from the divine envoy, so he is in the area of Strange Stone Gorge. It's just that there was a ghost ship in that place some time ago, and it swallowed the ships of the Bailai country, which must be extremely dangerous, so it's better for you to think twice. ”

He said it sincerely, and his eyes were full of worry.

It's just that after all that, I still don't mean to take out the treasure map.

The people in the hall began to talk about it, and some were already discussing whether to go in search of the treasure.

However, the middle-aged man always looked at Old Man Zhang calmly: "Since Old Man Zhang knows where he is, and he has a treasure map in his hand, why don't you go treasure hunting?" If we don't have manpower, we can help. ”

No one is stupid, they all said that the place is dangerous, how can they have to come forward?

But this group of people didn't want to give up this huge treasure, so they wanted to find a force to take the lead, and it was best for them to follow behind. Whether it's picking up a little bit of the benefits of the corners, or going in and robbing them openly, they won't lose it.

A shrewd person like Old Man Zhang naturally saw at a glance what the other party was thinking, but he also smiled and said: "The Zhang family has retired from Vanity Fair, and now the Empress Dowager Rende is also living in the harem and ignoring mundane matters, and it is useless for our Zhang family to ask for so much money, so this treasure is not interesting to mine." ”

When he said this, he was just telling the middle-aged man.

The Zhang family is no longer the powerful family it used to be, and it's not good for the tree to attract the wind. If there is too much money, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the imperial court and trap the Zhang family at a disadvantage.

But the Zhang family still has a queen mother in the palace, and they are not bullied, they don't want to mine this treasure, and no one can threaten them to go, otherwise they have to weigh whether they can afford the anger of the one in the palace.

It's threatening and reasonable, and it's uncomfortable to listen to, but it can't say anything.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he laughed twice and stood up and said, "Since this is the case, then so-and-so won't bother, so I'll leave!" ”

Old man Zhang stood up to see off the guests, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

A group of Jianghu people came and left, as if nothing had happened.

But all this couldn't escape the eyes of the dark guard, and what happened today only reached Shen Qingling's ears in half an hour.

"You mean that the Zhang family has a treasure map in their hands, but Old Man Zhang didn't admit it?"

"Yes, my subordinates heard it with their own ears, and that's what those Jianghu people said. And the old man of the Zhang family said the entrance to the treasure, presumably it can't be faked. Comforted.

But he didn't want Shen Qingling to sneer, and there was no fluctuation at all: "He is clever in this move, and he plays a group of people around!" ”

The secret guard didn't know who this 'he' was in the emperor's mouth, so he simply didn't speak.

Shen Qingling looked down at the fold, and then dropped it again: "You go and send people to continue watching, and wait for them to take action!" ”

"The treasure map...... Do you want your subordinates to look for it? ”

Treasure, that's not a small wealth, if the country of stability has a treasure, wouldn't it be beautiful?

However, Shen Qingling didn't care, but sneered: "What kind of treasure map, it's just Liang Gongzi's nonsense, can this be believed?" ”

"This ......," the dark guard suddenly contaminated.

Is this treasure map a treasure map?

But that's the way it is, and he can't be so suspicious.

"It's the ability to be optimistic about the Zhang family, and you don't have to pay attention to the rest. Those Jianghu people will definitely not stop, you just watch, don't have a conflict with them. ”

Shen Qingling explained again.

With this group of Jianghu people to deal with the Zhang family, the imperial court will not have to contribute.

It's just that he now feels that the compensation of 10,000 taels of gold that Mu Ling asked for that day was really too cheap for the Zhang family, and he knew it for a long time...... It should be a hundred thousand taels.

The Dark Guard took the order and asked no more questions.

The master's mind is not something they can guess and understand.

The Zhang family had such troubles, although it was temporarily resolved, but it also made Old Man Zhang very restless all day long.

However, what is even more restless is the Zhang family's sister-in-law who lives in the palace.

This Zhang family's sister-in-law lives in the palace, and it was originally the Empress Dowager Rende who took pity on her juniors. But after all, the Zhang family's sister-in-law is not young, there is a difference between men and women, and it is not a way to always live in the harem.

But if Shen Yuruo has not been seen, the Empress Dowager Rende's plan cannot be implemented, and it is inevitable that she will be depressed, and her mood will become worse and worse.

"Auntie, if this Princess Yuruo doesn't return to the palace for a day, won't the child not see her for a day?" The sister-in-law of the Zhang family was also very depressed.

If you live today, tomorrow I am afraid that I will have to go out of the palace if I don't want to, otherwise I will not be able to draw a handle if I ask the Empress Dowager Cixiao to catch something.

The Empress Dowager Rende naturally knew this truth, and she was anxious, but she could only say helplessly on her face: "That girl is a wild person, if the mourning family is not worthy of you, but you are now a white ding, and a princess can be glorious." ”

"If it weren't for the fact that she was a princess, I wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to it." The sister-in-law of the Zhang family snorted coldly.

The two were talking, and a little palace maid slowly walked in outside, knelt down in the hall and reported: "The Queen Mother, the envoys of the Bailai Kingdom have arrived today, and a few princesses have come, and the emperor has asked the Queen Mother to entertain one or two on her behalf." ”

"Oh? Bailai country. The Empress Dowager Rende put down the teacup in her hand and said with interest, "If the mourning family has not remembered wrongly, didn't the ships of the Bailai Kingdom encounter ghost ships in the Strange Stone Gorge and all of them are missing?" What is the money coming from? ”

It's only been half a month, could it be that the second batch of envoys from the country of Bailai has arrived?

The envoy before Ke Bai came to the country disappeared in the strange stone gorge, and it is impossible to be so good. But now it seems that there is no disagreement with An Dingguo, and even sent a princess to show goodwill.

What's going on?

Did that plan fail?

The little palace maid said honestly: "It's the envoy of the Bai Lai Kingdom, and the father-in-law from the emperor's side is like this." Now the princesses are temporarily resting in Yunhua Palace, waiting for the Queen Mother to go! ”

That's a princess in a foreign country, no matter how you stabilize the country, the number of etiquette still has to arrive.

And the two queen mothers of the harem, at this time, Shen Qingling ordered the Empress Dowager Rende to go, if there is no other purpose, no one will believe it.

The Empress Dowager Rende hummed, glanced at the little palace maid, and then got up and ordered someone to bathe and change clothes.

She still had to take a look.
