Guo Xiangao sat in the main hall, and his third son Guo Hai knelt below, just kneeling like this, looking at each other, and didn't say a word for a long time.

Seeing this, Guo Rui and Guo Yan couldn't help but want to step forward to dissuade them, how to say that they are all brothers born to the same mother, and they are different from those concubines, and now they don't know what Guo Hai has done wrong, so that his father is so angry.

"Father, if you have anything to say, let the third brother stand up and say, the weather is getting colder, and the floor is ......also cold," Guo Rui said comfortingly.

But before he finished speaking, he was reprimanded by Guo Xian, and he knelt on the ground with him. Guo Yan, who originally wanted to open his mouth to help, saw that his eldest brother had been punished together, so he naturally wouldn't open his mouth again, and the three of them knelt on the ground, in fact, they couldn't solve any problems, but he didn't understand what his father was angry about.

"Third child, do you know why the father punishes you for kneeling?" Guo Xian said coldly.

"I don't know." Guo Hai said in a deep voice. He felt that he hadn't done anything wrong, now that Princess Chen had left the palace, and he had sent the book away, it showed that their plan was feasible, and their sister Guo Qilan would soon be Princess Chen, could it be that there would be nothing wrong with what he did? Didn't my father always want Qilan to become a princess?

"I don't know? Did you give the mansion in the east of the city to the county lord of Qinghe as an apology? Guo Xian said coldly.

"yes, the house is abandoned anyway, so what's the matter? Otherwise, would she be able to leave King Chen's Mansion so happily? Guo Hai said aggrievedly.

In order to separate the relationship between King Chen and the princess, he doesn't know how many means he used, but now that his wish is about to be fulfilled, he says it's his fault? So what's wrong with him? Or should he not have cared about it at all?

"Don't know? Do you dare to say you don't know? The Guo family has so many houses, which one of them are you bad for her, but you gave her the ones in the east of the city? Guo Xian said angrily.

Now he didn't know what to tell his son, did he have to tell him that in the rockery of the mansion, there was a secret room, which contained six gold, silver and jewelry?

"Since the Guo family has so many mansions, I choose a deserted one for her, so what's not to do?" Guo Hai also stood up from the ground, he really didn't feel that he was wrong, since there was no mistake, then there was no need to kneel.

But when Guo Rui heard the mansion in the east of the city, his face became extremely ugly, the abandoned mansion in the east of the city? He heard from the third child that he used a house to give to Princess Chen, but he didn't expect it to be the house in the east of the city.

"Third child, you ...... You...... You get on your knees. "This mansion in the east of the city, speaking of which, it is normal for the third child not to know, it should be that the father did not plan to let the other two sons know at that time. It's not that they don't trust, it's that they don't want to be exposed to these dirty things.

"Big brother, why are you too? Didn't I just send a ruined house? Are you guys worth the fuss? ”

"Third child, you don't know, that house can't be given away, even if it's deserted."

"Big brother, you are still hiding from me until now, what is the matter, tell me now, maybe there is something that can be remedied, if you still want to hide it from me, then I just want to help you keep the secret in the mansion in the east of the city, and I can't keep it." Guo Hai glared at Guo Ruidao.

Since childhood, Guo Hai is the best of the three brothers, and his father also pinned a lot of hopes on him, although his boss is also a candidate to inherit the title, but his father has paid a lot of hard work for the training of the third child.

"Third child, I really can't say it, there is a fatal handle of our Guo family in the house in the east of the city, if those things are discovered by the county lord of Qinghe, then our whole family is finished!"

"Big brother, what is hidden in that house? Why are you hiding it from me? Could it be that you really want the county lord of Qinghe to come to our Guo family with something before you are willing to say it? ”

"This ......" Guo Rui set his eyes on Guo Xian, Guo Xian thought about it again and again, and finally nodded, signaling Guo Rui to tell Guo Hai the whole thing.

"Third child, do you know how the Guo family got to be where they are today?"

"You don't tell me how I know."

"Alas......! In fact, our father was originally just a low-level military commander, when our father followed the forward general to Huicheng to quell the rebellion, at that time their vanguard general because he could not attack for a long time, he released cruel words, so if he did not open the city gate and surrender, the day the city was broken, he would definitely massacre the city, and no one in the city would be left. ”

"Slaughter the city? But what does this have to do with my father? Guo Hai asked.

"My father, along with his brothers, plundered six chests of gold, silver, and jewelry, hid them, and later transferred them back to the house east of the city."

"What? There were six boxes of jewels hidden in that house? Anyway, since those jewels are not in our hands, who can prove that those jewels are related to the Guo family, even if they are dug up, what can they do? Maybe we can also channel the dirty water to the county lord of Qinghe. Guo Hai's eyes narrowed slightly.

Hearing this, Guo Rui bowed slightly, Guo Hai was right, those jewels were not in their hands, others could not say that these jewels were related to the Guo family, but it was the county lord of Qinghe, behind her was the Medicine King Valley, as well as the eldest princess and Dingguo Gong, if it went well, maybe they could cut off the other party's wings.

The ideal is very satisfying, and the reality is very skinny. Guo Rui and Guo Hai both think very well, but things in the world do not develop according to someone's wishes, but things done by bad people, and they must pay a price.

Sure enough, it was a master of organs, Chu Lixue didn't expect that the people who dealt with the Medicine King Valley, Yunshui Villa, also had a master of organs. Originally, she only asked for a secret room to be built in her bedroom. The other party actually made a real and a fake secret room out, the real secret room passage turned out to be hidden under her bed, and behind the bookshelf was an identical secret room.

And these six large boxes of jewels have all been hidden in the secret room under his bed. Who would have thought that the passage of the secret room would be under the embroidery bed in the women's boudoir.

"Miss, there are so many jewels, the Guo family didn't come to pick them up, did they really forget?" Ning Xiang wondered.

"Forget? If you had six big boxes of jewelry, would you forget? Chu Lixue asked without answering.

"Of course not, if Ning Xiang had so much money, she would have put it by her side, if she couldn't see it, she didn't have to worry."

"What if you can't keep it around? Do you want to find a reliable place to hide it, and then send someone to watch it quietly? ”

"Well...... no. What if the person sent to watch rolls the money away? The people of the Guo family are not stupid, and no one would have thought that there would be so much money in this rockery. If it weren't for the people who renovated the yard and saw the mechanism, we wouldn't have found it. Ning Xiang said with a smile.

Hmph, yes, if someone who doesn't know the mechanism finds out, she, Chu Lixue, is afraid that she will become a person who helps others watch the vault for free, and if one day, the other party wants to come and take away those belongings, she must not kill herself.

"Miss, Qiyun is back." At this moment, Li Ping's voice sounded outside the door.

I didn't expect Qiyun to rush back so quickly, when they dug up these belongings, they found some imprints of the clan emblem on them, although they were a little unclear, but they were still rubbed out by Chu Lixue with cinnabar mud.

At the time, no one present knew this pattern, and they could only see that it was a family emblem. Therefore, Chu Lixue handed over the rubbing pattern to Qiyun and brought it back to Yunshui Villa to Murong Lingxiang.

After a few days of getting along, Li Ping was no longer so resistant to Qiyun, but became a very good friend. Therefore, when Chu Lixue handed over the rubbing pattern to Qiyun, Li Ping did not raise any objections, he could have asked their family prince to help, but the prince had just proposed to Ning Wangfu, and it would not be long before Ning Wangfu and Jiang Guogong's mansion would become a family.

"Qiyun, has that pattern come to fruition?"

"Yes, miss, the young master of my family said that the pattern is the family emblem of the Luo family in Huicheng, the Luo family is a famous family in Huicheng, and the other two major families live in Huicheng at the same time, when Huicheng was slaughtered, these belongings should have been looted from the Luo family at that time." Qiyun said lightly.

Massacre of the city? Chu Lixue was shocked when she heard this answer, slaughtering the city? Then it should have something to do with counterinsurgency. The suffering brought by the war to the people is endless, if the city is defended and refuses to open the city gate, the other party will first trap the people in the city, and when the other party's grain and grass are consumed, they will enter the city to slaughter, but at that time, most of the people have lost their combat effectiveness, in fact, there is no need to slaughter the city. If the other party opens the city gate, it is a surrender, and since it is surrendered, it will not slaughter the city. So what happened in Huicheng in the first place?

The Luo family? Famous? How could a famous family be slaughtered? The matter of Huicheng, she also knows some from King Chen, when General Xu led troops to quell King Li's rebellion, and King Li's fief is in Huicheng, if these property with family emblems are all from Huicheng, then there must be some ulterior secrets when the rebellion was quelled, otherwise, why did the Guo family hide all these belongings, but they didn't squander them wantonly? Moreover, how did Guo Xian transport all these belongings here alone?

Everything is an unknown answer. However, since the Guo family has hidden so many belongings, why did they give this house to themselves? Aren't you afraid that you will find out where these possessions are?

Chu Lixue was thinking about it here, but she didn't know that the Guo family was already very nervous because of this mansion, and Guo Hai even thought of a better way to take this mansion back, for example, to exchange a bigger and more gorgeous mansion with Chu Lixue.

And Guo Hai really did it, he chose one of the most gorgeous houses in the city and the façade on two streets, and sent the title deed to Chu Lixue's new residence.
