"Father, the fifth prince lives in the old mansion, and he has always been elusive, sometimes he is not seen for several days, and I don't know what secret errand he has got."

Su Wenhui looked at his father sitting at the top and said with a frown.

The second old lady waved his hand when he heard this, "Although we want to catch up with the fifth prince, we can't have too deep a relationship with him." Our Su clan is a pure minister in the court, and your uncle has not stood in line now, so we must not act rashly. ”

He got up and walked back and forth in the study with his hands in his hands, "Since he has obtained a secret order, what is he doing in Beiyuan Mansion, we don't have to inquire too much, so as not to get into trouble." ”

Su Wenhui's eyebrows furrowed, "Father, don't you think it's strange? Since it is a secret order, why did he live in our Su Mansion as soon as he came? Aren't you afraid of revealing your whereabouts? ”

He was a little worried at the moment, and he always felt that the fifth prince's move had another deep meaning.

"If his whereabouts are exposed and something goes wrong, then our Su clan can escape? He probably wants to drag our Su into the water, right? ”

Listening to Su Wenhui's analysis, the second old lady was suddenly silent.

"Although your uncle is in a high position in the court, it won't take two or three years to become a minister, what else can our Su clan make others calculate?"

The second old lady was a little puzzled, but the fifth prince's move was really suspicious.

Su Wenhui was about to speak, but he heard a voice from outside the study. When the second old lady heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand, signaling that there was no need to say more for the time being.

He shouted out, "But Mukui is back?" In. ”

Mu Kui is the entourage of the second old lady, and he has been running for him, which is very valued by the second old lady.

Mu Kui quickly entered the study, and after saluting, he talked about the results of his investigation in the past few days.

"Master, you told the villain to investigate the movements of the five princes in the past few days. The villain received some news and came to report it. ”

Only then did Su Wenhui know that his father had already sent someone to investigate the five princes.

"Speak!" The second old lady said with a solemn face.

"The five princes have been in frequent contact with major families in the past few days, such as the You family, the Ma family, the Sun family, and some small businessmen. In addition, he often takes people into the Fuyan Mountain to hunt these days. ”

When the second old lady and Su Wenhui heard this, their brows tightened, and their faces were puzzled.

Su Wenhui pondered for a moment and then said, "I heard that the fifth prince loves money? ”

He didn't finish his words, but the other two understood what he meant.

The families mentioned by Mu Kui are all businessmen, and there are famous families in Beiyuan Mansion, as well as wealthy squires.

The You family, the Ma family, and the Sun family are all local wealthy, and they make a living all over the place, and even make it to the border.

"Hunting?" The second old lady suddenly moved in his heart.

"You mean he often takes people hunting?" The second old lady looked at Mu Kui, and then asked.

Mu Kui nodded, "Yes!" Going to the ground is frequent. I heard that the fifth prince has been looking for a good hunter recently, and every time he enters the mountain, he brings a large group of people. The villain sent people to infiltrate it, and he did find clues. ”

"Oh? What's the difference? The second old lady asked eagerly.

According to the news that came, the villain learned that the fifth prince brought a large group of people into the mountain every time, and then divided the group into two groups, one group followed behind him. There is also a batch, another hunting. ”

He paused, "No, the group that went with him was the Orion he had found. Each time they were assigned a place, and after two hours, they were still in the same place. ”

After Mu Kui said this, where did the second old lady and Su Wenhui still not understand? There must be something strange in this!

"Among the group of people brought by the fifth prince, there are a few people who are very strange, and it is certain that they are not Orions."

The second old lady and Su Wenhui glanced at each other, their eyes were full of doubts, and the study suddenly fell silent.

After a while, Su Wenhui said: "If this is the case, they must have other purposes for entering the mountain. ”

The second old lady looked contemplative, "But what is there in this mountain that is worth their trip and trip?" ”

"Really?" Su Wenhui's eyes were full of shock, he looked at his father, and then walked quickly to the bookcase.

Su Wenhui dipped his fingers in the tea and wrote a word on the bookcase.

The second old lady hurriedly followed, and when she saw it, she was stunned on the spot.

Mine!

The two of them were short of breath, a little shocked, and a little excited.

After a long time, their emotions gradually subsided.

The Fuyan Mountains stretch for thousands of miles, and the mountains are closely connected, and you may not be able to find a way out when you go into the deep mountains.

Therefore, the place where the five princes go must go in person, and then draw a map.

"Mukui! From today onwards, send some more people to pay close attention to the whereabouts of the five princes. If he goes hunting again, then he will find a way to sneak along, and be sure to see the terrain of the land where they are going. ”

Seeing that the second old lady's face was very solemn, Mu Kui hurriedly nodded in response.

"However, everything must be done with caution and not let them find out. If it is not feasible, do not force it, lest they get caught. ”

After Mu Kui left the study, Su Wenhui said eagerly: "Father, do you think this is a big possibility?" If it's really a mine, what kind of mine would it be? ”

The second old lady nodded, "Since it is so mysterious and assigned by the emperor, it is very likely that it is a mine." No matter what mine he has, he is an existence worthy of the attention of the imperial court. ”

Su Wenhui's eyes lit up, if it was a mine, then as a family of the Northern Yuan Mansion, could they?

He shouted excitedly, "Father, let's go and write to Uncle immediately, and we have to plan carefully." ”

The second old lady immediately shook his head, "Don't worry! This matter has not yet been confirmed, and it must be confirmed first. You still don't understand your uncle's temperament? Without confirmation, he won't act rashly. ”

"But when we confirm it, then we will lose the opportunity. Beiyuan Mansion is not only our Su family, but also so many families, even those businessmen, who doesn't want a piece of the pie? Su Wenhui was already impatient at the moment.

"Let's check first, or we can deploy first, lest it's too late, then we can only covet others."

The second old lady is also excited, and he has the same mind as his son.

"Father, you said that the fifth prince lives in our Su Mansion, should he be interested in cooperating with our Su Clan?"

Su Wenhui thought of the fifth prince and immediately said, "If he really has this meaning, why don't you cooperate with him?" ”

The second old lady was suddenly shocked in his heart, and then hesitated a little.

"I see what your uncle means, even if he wants to stand in line in the future, he will also take refuge in the third prince, right? Let's get involved with the five princes, I'm afraid it's not a good thing. ”

Su Wenhui was anxious, "Father, the uncle is about to rule the world, but now who else in our Su clan can be in a high position?" For so many years, he has been pressed on it, and the juniors of the clan have not made achievements in the court, and I don't see who he has really promoted. ”

As he spoke, he leaned close to the second old lady's ear and whispered, "Isn't this a good opportunity?" If we want to go further, we can't let go of this opportunity. ”
