Seeing that Yueqi didn't speak, he knew that he had never said one or two sentences.

Riqi was not surprised, and continued to analyze: "It stands to reason that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already a prisoner of the country before, if you want to see the prime minister, even if you see it every day, no one will criticize it, and you can see it openly in the palace." Why do you have to make a secret passage that seems to be unsightly? ”

Seeing that Yun Yueqi just stood expressionlessly, as if he didn't plan to speak again after saying the two sentences just now.

He didn't care, he thought about it and said: "If Guo Wuwei is really Jia Gui, it means that the prince is also with him." So what Jia Gui did that hurt heaven and reason, didn't the prince also know about it? ”

Yun Yueqi finally spoke: "I'm afraid it's not just about knowing!" According to the news of the Red Kite's investigation, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first arrived in the capital, there was no force except for the four guards. However, after a few years, his power increased greatly, and many officials were initially bribed by him with money to use them. Later, the power gradually stabilized, and these talents were really co-opted and became his henchmen. Within a few years, he defeated the forces of the Five Kings and the Great Prince, and became a pivotal figure in the court."

Listen to him. Yun Riqi thought for a while and nodded, "Your news is naturally not wrong. If this is the case, it must be thanks to this Jia Gui's funding. Otherwise, raising so many people, it is not a small amount to want to buy up and down. ”

"I sent the red kite to investigate Jia Gui on purpose. It was found that most of his businesses were lucrative and shady. Over the years, human beings have been bought and sold between countries, including children, women, and prisoners of war. ”

"Prisoners of war? This is forbidden by various countries. ”

"There are noble people in every country, and once a war breaks out, they will buy the generals of the victorious side and buy the prisoners privately at a low price. The general told the public that these men had died in battle. These prisoners of war were then sold to other countries for forced labor and profiteering. Some of these prisoners of war were not even soldiers, but ordinary people, including children and women. Those who were taken captive during the war were also bought and sold, and from then on, they were far away from their relatives and reduced to servitude, miscellaneous labor, and even prostitution, and lived a miserable life. ”

"How can it be!" Riki scolded.

"Not only that, Jia Gui has many masters under him, who specialize in trading with dignitaries and big families from various countries, as long as he pays money, he can invite his masters, and he can help achieve anything by killing people and goods. There are still a lot of businesses, in short, as long as it is advantageous, there are Jia Gui's people involved. ”

"Di Xiechen actually colluded with someone like Jia Gui to achieve the status of the crown prince, so even if he can regain the throne, will it be a blessing for the people of the Northern Han Dynasty in the future?" Riqi said angrily, thinking that the old master did not support the evil Chen, and insisted on assisting the Great Song Zhao family, he felt very wise.

"Red Kite didn't find stronger evidence that the two colluded, and besides, these things have nothing to do with the master, so I don't plan to tell her." Yueqi said.

Riqi thought about it for a moment and agreed: "That's right, the struggle for power, the road to the Supreme Throne has never been clean. There is no need to let the master worry about these things, as long as he treats the master well in the future, it is our wish to make her happy all her life. ”

Yueqi nodded, this was exactly what he was thinking. Although helpless, since she is the person recognized by the master, she can only hope that she will be happy.

"By the way," Ri Qi remembered one thing, "this Jia Gui has always wanted to get the Yun family's armory. More than two years ago, he sent someone to find the Yun family's big shopkeeper in the Northern Han Dynasty to discuss buying the three armory workshops at a high price, but naturally he would not agree. Since then, the Yun family's various shops have often been intimidated and harassed, and there have even been incidents of each other's shops hurting people's lives because of fights. So over the years, the Yun family and Jia Gui have been incompatible, and it was not until this period of time that they suddenly stopped. ”

"I'll send the red kite to investigate in detail. Don't let her know if it doesn't involve the master's business. Yun Yueqi said.

"Understood, don't worry!" Riki nodded.

"The master is still waiting, let's go!" Yueqi walked in the direction of the secret room.

Richie followed.

Yun Moxi was sitting behind the bookcase reading a book, and when he saw the two of them coming in together, he deliberately stared at Yue Qi a few times, and found that his face was much softer than before, and the stone in his heart was put down.

"My subordinates meet my master!" Riki clasped his fists and saluted.

Yueqi and Ligu withdrew.

"Get up! No need to be polite! ”

Riqi put the account file on the bookcase, "These are the accounts of the recent business. ”

Yun Moxi took it and looked at it one by one.

One of them reads: Armory.

Thinking that Yi Xiechen had mentioned it this morning, he took it over and looked at it, which recorded the details of the Yun family's armory.

"The Armory Workshop is the Yun family's key business, and it is very important to the political and war situation of various countries. The stainless iron and steel that was made, as well as the chain bow and crossbow chariot, were all unique to the Yun family, and this must be kept secret. The location of the Special Armory Workshop must be inspected by yourself. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand. The Northern Han government and some underworld organizations in the private sector have been trying to find the location of the armory, but they have never succeeded. So this subordinate can definitely guarantee it. ”

"Hmm!" Yun Moxi nodded approvingly, "I didn't think before, but now I look at this ledger carefully, the record is too detailed, if it is a general ledger, of course, the more detailed the better." However, this ledger is extraordinary, and from the coming and going of these materials, if someone who cares carefully examines it, they may be able to guess the approximate location of the armory. So you still have to change it when you go back, in case the ledger falls into the hands of outsiders. ”

"The subordinates are negligent, the master reminds us. When I went back, I made the ledger into two copies, and some of the contents were listed separately, so that it could not be traced. ”

"The concealment of the armory workshop is also the biggest secret of the Yun family, except for the Great Song Dynasty, these families of the Northern Han Dynasty are very important. Other transactions can also be transferred, but the armory workshop involves the forging technology of the Yun family for decades, as well as the livelihood of hundreds of people who are isolated from the world, so it is not possible to be careful. If you are more relieved in the Great Song Dynasty, you will have to hand it over to the emperor after all. But in the Northern Han Dynasty, my grandfather was also planning a gradual withdrawal, so we had to be cautious. ”

As he was talking, Yun Yueqi suddenly walked in.

"What's wrong?" Unless there is something special, he will never come in and disturb him when he is discussing business.

"I just received an urgent letter, and Yongde Qianzhuang caught fire."

"Ahh Yun Moxi and Riqi were taken aback.

Yongde Qianzhuang is the head of the Yun family's money in the Northern Han Dynasty, and it is the helmsman of the capital dispatch in the north. A huge amount of gold and silver was stored, and the key was also to store many important objects and treasures entrusted by large merchants from all over the world to Yunjia Qian Zhuang at a high price.

Whether it is in terms of value or reputation, if something goes wrong, it will be a fatal blow to the Yun family.

Therefore, Yongde Qianzhuang has always been very well guarded, not only equipped with many martial arts and strong guards, but also various measures specifically to prevent fires and bandits.

It hasn't been an accident for decades.
