Chapter 569: You're Trying to Catch Turtles!
The re-planning that the Da Ye clan said was a plan for a life without the support of the Ye family in the future, and at the same time, it was also necessary to plan how to clear herself after handing over this hidden gold cave, after all, once the Queen Mother was angry, she couldn't afford it.
She asked Bai Haochen: "Do you think that Bai Heran can keep our mother?" Once the gold cave was opened, I was the most suspicious, and the Queen Mother would first think that I had betrayed her. You don't know your aunt's methods, the Golden Cave is her lifeblood, whoever touches her lifeline must pay for it with her life. ”
Bai Haochen was also afraid of the Queen Mother, but he was not as afraid as the Daye family, after all, he didn't have much contact with the Queen Mother, and he didn't know what the so-called Golden Cave meant. So he spoke relatively easily, and he could tell Daye: "I definitely can, naturally the white crane will come back, and my aunt and grandmother will not be good in her hands." ”
But the Daye clan is still worried that destroying the Golden Cave is equivalent to digging the foundation of the Queen Mother. This foundation is not only the support of countless private soldiers in the hands of the Queen Mother, but also the foundation of the Queen Mother and even the entire Ye family.
She understands too well that the reason why the court let the Queen Mother and the Ye family go, and the reason why they haven't done it until now, is not because they don't care about any affection at all, and the Ye family and the court have no affection. The imperial court was just buying time for itself, destroying the Queen Mother's hidden gold cave step by step, and controlling the private barracks step by step. And if she handed over this in her hands this time, she would have completely broken with the Queen Mother and the Ye family.
Da Ye gritted his teeth, "That's it, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, it's your Ye family who is sorry for me first, and what I did was also to protect myself." has been at the mercy of the Ye family for half his life, and now it is enough! ”
She told Bai Haochen: "You pay attention, when you see Bai Heran coming back, go to find her, and tell Bai Heran that as long as you can help me sit back in the position of the main mother, as long as I can save our mother and son in this incident, I can hand over the hidden golden cave." At the same time, I will also testify that it was the Ye family who threatened me to move the wealth of the blank family, and I am willing to suffer even the fifty boards stipulated by the law. But Hakuzuru must be protected from death, which is the basis of everything. ”
Bai Haochen nodded, "Mother don't worry, my son will definitely do it." I'll go to the front yard and keep an eye on her, and I'll tell her when she gets back. ”
In fact, Bai Haochen himself didn't realize that he was so disgusted with the Ye family, and now he was so firmly instigating the Ye family to turn against the Ye family, so as to throw himself under the wings of Bai Heran, these are all the credit of Mei Guo.
For a few days, Mei Guo has been brainwashing in his ear, and she didn't directly persuade them to "rebel", she was just not worth it for the second lady from the perspective of a "daughter-in-law", but she was just recalling the sins of the second lady during this period of time for Bai Haochen, and the good thing the third lady had. The Ye family was never mentioned between the lines, but it made Bai Haochen have more and more opinions about the Ye family, more and more opinions, and felt more and more that the Ye family was sorry for them, and they would throw it away when they were out of use.
He didn't know that it was Mei Guo's subtle influence that caused him to completely give up continuing to cooperate with the Ye family today through this incident, and pulled his mother to take refuge in Bai Heran.
Of course, no matter who he takes refuge into, he is in order to save his life, for his future wealth and glory and the status of the Duke of Wenguo.
At that time, Bai Heran was sitting on the Qingming Hall and playing chess with the emperor of heaven and emperor.
In line with the principle that doctors cannot treat themselves, the injury on her arm was personally treated by Zheng Duo, the head of the Tai Hospital, of course, using her own medicine. The queen mother also came over to cry a lot, scolded the Ye family, and then went back to Zhaoren Palace to rest under the persuasion of Bai Heran.
This game of chess was played very hard, Bai He couldn't understand the way of chess, basically he was stunned, the old emperor frowned, and said to her vigorously: "You shouldn't play like this, you said that you fell here, it seems that you have won, but in fact you have lost the whole game, because I still have a lot of back-ups!" ”
Bai Heran smiled bitterly, "Father, my daughter doesn't know how to play chess very well, why don't we change to a different way of playing, why don't we change all the chess pieces to one by one, and then play another game?" ”
The old emperor felt that this game was really fresh, so he took a bunch of wooden squares from the palace according to what Bai Heran said, and then watched Bai Heran dip his pen in ink, and wrote names on each wooden square.
Okay, there is the Ye family, the queen mother, herself, and Jun Murin.
The old emperor was happy, "You are going to catch turtles!" ”
Bai Heran nodded, set up the two squares, and pushed the chess pieces with the Ye family and the Queen Mother written in front of Emperor Tianhe. "The father and the emperor will play their chess, and the daughter will play our chess."
This chess game was played for a whole hour, and in the end, the old emperor lost.
However, he lost very happily, because his loss meant that the Ye family lost, which meant that the Queen Mother lost, and Bai Heran's victory was the victory of Dongqin, which was the best ending he had been hoping for.
But this is just chess after all, if it is put into reality, will he still lose?
The chess game was still in front of him, the old emperor looked at it and looked at it again, and then spoke, but he said to Bai He: "The feathers must be pulled out one by one, since those things exist, they can't pull out the nest and pull it down, otherwise once the nest overturns, those scattered chess pieces are likely to be used by others, which is the last thing I want to see." ”
Bai Heran nodded, "Yes, His Royal Highness the Tenth told me that there are still many places where private soldiers are hoarding and have not been found, and if the Ye family and the Queen Mother are moved at this time, those private soldiers will be pulled away by others, or they will form their own faction and cause trouble to Dongqin." ”
"How are you going to do that?" Emperor Tianhe waved his hand, "I have not asked about military affairs for many years, and I have always been in charge of Rin'er. Now that I look at you, the future princess, it is really not for nothing, and there are many things that I understand better than Rin'er. ”
Bai He smiled, "How can my daughter compare with His Royal Highness the Tenth, and I don't care about those soldiers at all, the reason why I am involved is only because there are more than one people from the Ye family in the family, so this can be regarded as being passively pulled into the bureau!" ”
Emperor Tianhe nodded, "Yes, speaking of which, your Bai family is also messy enough." ”
This was said very vaguely, Bai Heran knew that the old emperor must have been dissatisfied with the Wenguo Mansion for a long time, and it was even very likely that once the day came when the Ye family settled the general account, the Bai family would not be spared.
But that was in the past, and now that she is here, she can't watch the Bai family, who has been dragged into the water by the Ye family, fall deeper and deeper. Bai Xingyan didn't care, but there were still people in that mansion that she wanted to protect.
"It's okay to mess around." She said blandly, "You can make mistakes in chaos." If they are calmer than the other, and their lives are without waves, that is the most tricky. She pushed the finished game away from the table and erased the names one by one with ink. The father can rest assured that his daughter understands this and will not be in a hurry. But my arm can't be injured in vain, and I always have to knock out something from the Ye family to finish it. ”
The old emperor nodded again, "How many do you want to knock out?" ”
Hakuzuru put all the plastered chess pieces together, "That's how much I'm going to knock out." As he spoke, he divided the pieces into two piles, one large and one small. She pointed to the small pile and said: "This is my mother's dowry, when I was married to Dongqin in ten miles of red makeup, but now I can't even find a shadow of her." So many dowries have disappeared in the past ten years, and I must find them. ”
"That's as it should be." The old emperor is not confused, people always have to do something for themselves, and they can't be too selfless. If people are too selfless, then there is a problem. "What about the other pile?"
"This is the salary for my future husband." She took it for granted.
The old emperor smacked his lips when he heard this, "This is not married yet, and the elbow will be turned out first." Not to mention such good things, I think about my godfather and godmother first, but I am thinking about my future husband, which is really a big woman. ”
Bai He smiled and said, "Father, the soldiers who fought the country are fed, so they can afford to carry swords and guns!" ”
"I know, that's what I say." The old emperor blushed a little, "But how much is this one?" Girl, don't blame me for not reminding you, Lao Shi has a lot of soldiers in his hands, and if you knock less, you won't be able to feed it! ”
"A hidden gold cave in the hands of Empress Dowager Ye, does my father think it is enough?"
"Shhh The old emperor gasped, "She still has a hidden gold cave in her hand?" ”
Bai Heran nodded, "His Highness Ten said that there are at least five such places, and each of them is a rival to a rich country. In fact, if you really count it, Empress Dowager Ye is the richest man in Eastern Qin, not the Hong family. It's just that a large part of her money comes from the Hong family, because a few years ago, the Ye family and the second lady of the Guogong Mansion cooperated with each other, and all the filial piety silver sent by the Hong family to the Guogong Mansion was emptied, and even the dowry of my mother's long shop ten miles was completely stolen. ”
"It's really against their Ye family!" The old emperor was also angry in his heart, but there were some things he couldn't do, because Empress Dowager Ye's bureau had started before he succeeded to the emperor's throne. At that time, he was not in charge, and naturally he had no way to find out, and when the first emperor gradually delegated power in his old age, it was too late for him to attack the Ye family.
The Ye family already has a small force outside, and it is not enough to rebel, but at the same time, it is not enough for the imperial court to overthrow it in one fell swoop. This is also the reason why he later named the Ye family the queen mother after he ascended the throne, that is, he wanted to see this person under his nose and keep the wolf by his side, which was the safest.
Of course, this wolf has also grown in this captivity, and the large amount of money flowing over the years has been unexpected by Emperor Tianhe, but he also has the heart to give the old lady this opportunity. Because his tenth child once told him that for a captive wolf, no matter how fat it is, it is always in our cage. Just let it grow as much meat as possible, and when it grows to the point that it can't grow any longer, it is the most cost-effective to slaughter it with a knife.
Their father and son called this a wolf breeding plan, of course, this plan was later handed over to Lao Shi to keep an eye on, so he only felt at ease to be an emperor and control the overall situation. Therefore, the old emperor did not know about the Tibetan gold cave mentioned by Bai Heran.
However, I want the old lady to hide the gold cave...... Emperor Tianhe knew that this was his own son who began to slaughter wolves!
