Volume 2: Cinnabar in the Heart Chapter 149 Tomorrow is the day of hiring

"Have you ever heard that there is a gold nest in the Eastern Capital?" Raised his eyebrows without makeup, "There's everything in it." There are the most prosperous underground gambling houses in the Eastern Capital City, and there are also the most extravagant green buildings in the Eastern Capital City, which are as good as the Mianyue Building. ”

Shangguan Jingyu was stunned, "I haven't heard of it." ”

"This kind of thing, if you are in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you naturally can't hear it." Su Yan sat down, "Do you know that the silver flowing in the first day can be worth half a year's tax in the Dashuo Dynasty." It can be seen that there is too much oil and water. ”

"Will the imperial court allow such an existence?" You must know that if the imperial court cannot control the wealth of the world, then sooner or later, there will be rebels who will subvert the court. This is inevitable and powerful.

Su Yan shook his head, "Naturally not." Therefore, the emperor ordered the Criminal Department to secretly send spies to investigate the matter, but the Criminal Department has not moved. ”

"Why hasn't there been any movement?" Shangguan Jingyu frowned, "As long as it exists, there must be traces to follow." ”

"Because no one would have thought that there would be a lot of articles under the small nunnery." took a sip of water without makeup, "And...... To be able to make the temple so grand is not a day's work, nor is it the power of one person. ”

"You mean, there is collusion in the court?" She's not stupid, she's honest.

Su Yan nodded, "Maybe it's not collusion, or it's just a one-handed operation." ”

"What?" Shangguan Jingyu's eyelashes suddenly raised, as if he realized something, "You don't mean my father, do you?" ”

"Your father?" Su Yan shook his head, "Even if the Prime Minister's Mansion is a big family, your father is greedy for a lot of money, and he has also looted a lot of people's fat and ointment, but it is not enough to build the entire bottom of the gold nest." ”

With a sigh of relief, Shangguan Jingyu bowed his head, "That's okay." ”

If this kind of thing is found out, I am afraid that my life will not be guaranteed. She didn't want her father to have one more sin like this in addition to collecting money and taking power. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to clean up.

"Good what?" Su Yan chuckled, "If it's yours, it's better, but it's a pity it's not yours." Now that the court has investigated, the second prince has also investigated, and it is difficult to guarantee that the major forces will not interfere with each other. It's chaotic every day, and there is a good show in this eastern capital. ”

"The second prince also intervened?" Shangguan Jingyu frowned, "It seems that the person who made this golden nest should be ......" She paused, "Under the Son of Heaven!" ”

smiled without a smile and did not answer.

"So, you've found the Asksin Temple?" Shangguan Jingyu asked.

"Yes." Su Yan said, "If ordinary people want to enter the Wenxin Nunnery, they must do it at night." Three miles west of the eastern capital, there is a mass grave where a coffin is placed. Put 10,000 taels of silver outside the coffin, lie down by yourself, light the incense, and sleep. When you wake up, you will find yourself in a gold nest underground. ”

"In that case, why can't the imperial court do the same?" Shangguan Jingyu was puzzled.

"As long as it is a person from the government and the yamen, the people there will recognize it, and they will not wake up from this sleep." Su Yan said, "What do you think is the reason why the Asking Heart Nunnery has existed for so long?" If it's so easy to get in, how can it make such a big noise? No matter how many people want to intervene, they don't survive the next day. In order to find out this Wenxinan, I can't count how many people died. ”

She bowed her head, "Then why are you willing to tell me?" ”

"You ......" Su Yan hesitated.

"Don't go." Shangguan Jingyu half-lowered his eyebrows, and his voice was slightly cold.

Su Yan rubbed his eyebrows, "It's so hypocritical, but it's not suitable for people." Don't worry, I can't die, and I don't go there to play. It's a pity to miss such a mysterious place. ”

"Play? How many lives do you have? She asked.

Su Yan smiled, "I'm a cat." ”

Shangguan Jingyu almost laughed, but after all, he just glared at her.

"Don't worry, I'll take it when I see it, and I won't startle the snake. What's more, there are still people from the second prince there, and I will never dare to act rashly. Su Yan patted Shangguan Jingyu on the shoulder, "I'm still waiting to see you get married!" Of course, the premise is to marry my senior brother. ”

Her body stiffened, the light in her eyes was a little dim, and her smile was full of smiles.

——————

That night, he left the Prime Minister's Mansion without makeup, and Shangguan Jingyu couldn't sleep comfortably and copied the scriptures all night.

Tomorrow is the day of great joy in the eastern capital.

The second prince Xiao Dongming will personally come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to be hired, and the third prince Xiao Dongli will also be hired in person last year.

Such a double happiness is coming, which is not waiting for it.

Although the second prince and the third prince are different, there are few happy events in Dashuo where the two princes are personally hired. Now the streets and alleys are talking about it, waiting for this happy event.

Shangguan Jingyu didn't say a word, and buried himself in copying the scriptures.

"Miss? Don't write it. Fleur cut the heart of the candle to make it brighter, so that she wouldn't hurt her eyes.

"It's fine." She didn't look up.

"Miss!" Fleur pounced and knelt down, "Miss's hands are already shaking, don't write!" Really don't write it. If the young lady really doesn't want to marry the second prince, then ask the young lady to go with the heavy prince! ”

Her hand kept trembling, the pen "click" fell, she looked up and looked cold, "Do you know what you're talking about?" ”

"Miss, the heavy son treats you well, the slave and maid are in the eyes. The young lady also has a heart for the heavy son, and the slave can also see it. In this case, the young lady does not want to marry into the royal family, so let's go with the heavy son! Don't torture yourself anymore, the slave looks distressed. Fleur burst into tears.

She let out a long breath, "You get up first!" ”

"Miss?" Fleur sobbed lowly.

"He can't protect himself, how can he take me away?" After a long time, she spoke like a mosquito.

Fleur was stunned, "What are you talking about?" ”

Shangguan Jingyu got up, walked slowly to the window, and stood against the window.

The hand holding the pen hung down gently, but it still couldn't stop trembling. Gazing at the bamboo slips hanging all over the corridor, listening to the night breeze whistling by, the sound of the bamboo slips, but the heart can no longer calm down.

The moon is like a hook, and every inch is cold.

In the dark night, there is only a chill to the bone.

One stood by the window, the other sat quietly in the courtyard, looking at the same moon, the same sky, breathing the same breath, but they couldn't hear each other's heartbeats and couldn't hold each other's hands.

Now, it's not that she refuses to go, it's that she can't go.

Not everyone can be chic, there are too many earthly ties, and it is not perfect to walk away. She has such courage, but she can't let go of such a burden.

In her memory, so many heads rolled to the ground, and that bloody picture, she never wanted to recreate it.

Taking a deep breath, she stood there and never said a word again.

Also, there is nothing to say.

Just thinking about it, I don't know if I can come back safely without makeup?

In fact, Su Yan did find the location of the Asking Heart Temple. The carriage had driven into the temple earlier, and she made very small marks along the way, so that even at night, she could accurately find the seemingly ordinary temple.

Looking at it from a distance, the nunnery is no different from the ordinary nunnery outside, the lights go out at night, only the incense candles are still burning, and it doesn't seem to attract any attention.

Without makeup, his gaze quickly swept around, and he didn't know how many people were ambushed nearby, but ...... In the dark, there was indeed no sign of anyone. Only by calming down and listening intently can you hear a few strange sounds.

There are probably quite a few masters nearby.

I didn't know that she was just about to get up, and there was a sudden chill behind her.

said that it was too late and that it was fast, even though Su Yan took off to avoid it, a cold sword grazed in front of him, and a few strands of green silk were instantly broken. If she was one step too late, I was afraid that it would be her neck that would be cut off now.

Fortunately, at this moment, she is dressed in black and masked, so naturally no one will recognize her.

The long whip instantly came out of his hand, and a whip sound pierced the sky.

Those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come!
