"Are you saying that the imperial court will send someone over to take over, and the fifth prince is only in charge of the preliminary exploration?" Su Yizhao analyzed.

Zong Zeming's eyes flashed with appreciation, "Then who do you think is the one in charge of this mine?" ”

Su Yizhao had an idea, "Could it be the fourth prince?" ”

Zong Zeming was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect Su Yizhao's little brain to be so easy to use.

He nodded, "Not bad! Otherwise, do you think the four princes are really here to welcome their relatives? Even if he is concerned about the mineral deposits, he must be approved by the emperor. He also came here with a secret order. ”

"So, the fifth prince is helping someone else make a wedding dress?"

Su Yizhao was shocked to realize that the emperor's calculation was really profound! Before, she thought that the emperor trusted the five princes, but now it seems that the emperor doesn't believe anyone.

First send the five princes to take the lead, and then send the four princes to pick the fruit.

Even if the five princes leave their roots here, they will be constrained by the four princes. The two compete with each other, and it is naturally better than being alone.

Anyway, the princes of this piece of fat will find a chance to bite it, so let them fight.

As for the other princes, they have long lost the opportunity. It's better to send two princes than to each prince to get a piece of the pie, right?

Iron ore was very important to the imperial court and was a necessity for forging weapons.

If the princes are allowed to take advantage of the iron mines, the emperor is naturally worried that they will privately forge weapons and mercenaries will rebel.

After figuring out the trick, Su Yizhao felt that the emperor was really scheming. Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy.

"Who isn't a fan of the authorities? Recently, Zheng Mingxin, the right attendant of the household department, committed an old illness, and before I came to Beiyuan Mansion, I had been sick in the morning for three consecutive days. ”

Su Yizhao pondered for a long time, and then said incredulously: "Shouldn't he be the last to pick peaches?" ”

Zong Zeming's eyes were full of smiles, and talking to smart people was worry-free.

"Before I came, I had sent someone to check on his house, I was bedridden, and the soup and medicine continued every day, and there was an endless stream of people visiting the house, but they were all seriously ill and refused to see guests."

People in the know must be able to guess something, Su Yizhao is a little impressed by the five princes.

"That's why the fifth prince will go to woo the You clan?" Su Yizhao couldn't help but wonder, no wonder the five princes were so close to the You family.

The excavation of mineral deposits had to be handled by the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry, but this did not require Zheng Mingxin to come in person.

Since the emperor sent him, it shows that the emperor attaches great importance to the mineral deposits this time.

"Isn't the emperor afraid that the You family is dominant?"

Su Yizhao felt that this was a test for Zheng Mingxin, the iron mine was lucrative, who wouldn't be tempted?

"Zheng Mingxin is a pure minister, rather than handing over those mineral deposits to other factions, the Zheng family is undoubtedly the best choice. Just taking this opportunity, the emperor can also test the position of the Zheng family. ”

Su Yizhao stroked his chin thoughtfully, and then said: "Actually, this mineral deposit, according to me, does not need to wade into troubled waters. It's a pity that the trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop! I'm afraid I can't help us. The mineral deposit is in the Northern Yuan Mansion, who would believe that our Su clan did not reach out? ”

What she didn't finish talking about was that Shoufu lost to the Su family twice, maybe she was looking for an opportunity to calculate the Su family? Isn't that right?

"Money is small, but expanding your network is the real thing. Your grandfather was cautious in the first half of his life, never formed a party for personal gain, and in the end did not end up in mediocrity? ”

Zong Zeming said, got up and walked to the desk, picked up the tea bowl on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

"I've drunk this!" Su Yizhao looked at the empty tea bowl and suddenly felt speechless.

Zong Zeming raised his eyebrows, "There is only one tea bowl here, do you want to die of thirst for me?" ”

"It's all men, what's there to worry about?" Zong Zeming doesn't care about authenticity.

As soon as he leaned over, Su Yizhao smelled a faint smell of herbs, mixed with a cold fragrance.

Su Yizhao: ? I didn't expect you to be so unsophisticated?

"Sometimes it doesn't work to keep to yourself, especially when your Su clan has been showing its edge recently, I'm afraid that I have already provoked the jealousy of others."

Referring to Shousuke? Su Yizhao felt so inexplicably.

"The smell of herbs on your body is a little strange, I'm afraid you can't do anything secret." Su Yizhao said suddenly.

Zong Zeming was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were cold.

"This is the fragrance of the purple dove flower, a magic medicine in the Western Regions, I need its flower stem as a medicinal guide."

Zong Zeming said very casually, and then lay down on the Luohan couch again.

Su Yizhao glanced at Zong Zeming, who didn't care, and felt a little sympathy for him.

"If your family wants to intervene, then you have to start with the You family. Such a large piece of meat can't be eaten by the You family alone. Zong Zeming continued.

Su Yizhao nodded, "Lord Zheng should go to the Beiyuan Mansion, right?" ”

"Zheng Mingxin is not an upright person, he has a concubine room, he looks like a flower, and he has been very favored recently."

Zong Zeming played with the jade pendant on his waist and said casually.

Su Yizhao immediately realized, "Then I owe you a favor!" ”

Zong Zeming smiled, "I said, repay your life-saving grace!" ”

Suddenly hearing a slight sound on the windowsill, Zong Zeming immediately got up from the Luohan couch, turned around and hid in the shadows next to the bookshelf.

This is very fast! The alertness was also very high, and Su Yizhao smiled.

A shaggy foot poked in, and then quickly ran onto Su Yizhao's bookcase.

Zong Zeming only saw a black shadow appear on Su Yizhao's table, and when he looked closely, he found that it was a small animal that looked like a squirrel.

He couldn't help but be stunned, and saw the little thing squeaking at Su Yizhao, and its paws were still upside down.

Su Yizhao can communicate with Acacia because she has special abilities.

As an ordinary person, Zong Zeming naturally didn't understand what Acacia was talking about, so Su Yizhao wasn't worried just now.

"What is this?" Zong Zeming waited for a while, and when he saw that there was no abnormality, he walked out of the shadows.

Acacia was full of cleverness, and immediately exploded, and then quickly jumped onto Su Yizhao's shoulder, glaring at Zong Zeming who was walking with round eyes.

"Who is he? How can there be a man in your room? Acacia called out for a while, and his tone was full of vigilance.

Su Yizhao didn't answer, she didn't want Zong Zeming to know that she could communicate with animals.

Zong Zeming was surprised that this little thing was quite spiritual, and he seemed to be very wary when he saw him.

A gold thread extends from the back to the tail, fluffy and fluffy, and a pair of round eyes look a little cute.

"You raised this? Like a squirrel, but not very much! It still seems to understand you? ”

Zong Zeming was a little curious, so he stretched out his hand to touch Acacia.

Acacia's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and then the sharp claws aimed at the back of Zong Zeming's hand and slashed hard.

"Shhh Zong Zeming only felt a pain on the back of his hand, and when he lowered his head to look, he found that the back of his hand was scratched and oozed blood.

"Yikes!" Su Yizhao was a little embarrassed, when did Acacia become so fierce? Claws so sharp?

"Don't come nonsense!" Su Yizhao patted Acacia's head and soothed it.
