Chapter 1475: Gold Buried in the Ground
The maid lowered her head tremblingly, first turned her head to look at the general's wife, and when she saw the general's wife looking melancholy, she exhaled deeply, and then said slowly:
"The reason for the incident is that the eldest prince lost all his family, and he was embarrassed to borrow money everywhere, so he hit the idea at home......
She gritted her teeth, and then said, "It's just that the general and his wife know that he is a good gambler, and they have stopped him countless times, and even cut off his monthly money, and confiscated all the valuable things on him.
"The eldest prince's fox friends don't dare to come to the General's Mansion to make trouble, let alone come to the General's Mansion to look for him, because the general has warned those fox friends around him many times, most of the time, he sneaks out by himself, and sometimes in order to get out over the wall, he will make a mess......
"Can you get to the point?"
Bai Quan interrupted her very impatiently, these women are just talkative.
I'm afraid that if I don't interrupt her, she can still talk a lot of nonsense.
The maid kowtowed her head and said tremblingly, "Yes, yes......
She swallowed, and once again gave the general's wife a meaningful look.
Seeing that the general's wife didn't react, he said slowly: "Because the general didn't give the eldest prince a month's money, and the lady confiscated all the valuable things on him, he couldn't go out to gamble anymore, so he had the bad idea of stealing things, and it was because of this that the plague that followed......
Bai Quan narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean? How did stealing cause the plague?"
The maid glanced cautiously at the general's wife, obviously a little embarrassed.
The general's wife sighed heavily, and finally nodded, "Now that we've said this, let's move on."
With the consent of the general's wife, the maid became much bolder, and she only heard her say earnestly:
"The eldest prince has always had a habit of petty theft, so all along, the people around Madame have been very protective of him, and he has no way to steal anything from Madame, but he doesn't dare to hit the general's head with his ideas, so he ......
Speaking of this, the maid suddenly lowered her head very low, "So the eldest prince hit the idea to the ancestral hall......
As soon as these words came out, the audience was stunned.
But most of the people's eyes were still full of curiosity, and they seemed to be wondering what could be of value over there in the ancestral hall?
"And then? Can you put it simply? It's annoying."
Bai Quan rubbed his head a little speechlessly, it was already the third watch in the middle of the night, he was already sleepy, and it was really a headache to deal with this kind of thing.
The maid trembled and said, "I don't know what the eldest prince thinks, but they dug up a box of gold buried in the ground, and then ......."
"Wait a minute, this king asked you to describe it simply, not so simple as you said, what do you mean that you will suddenly jump the topic so far? A box of gold? Or dug out of the ground? You mean there's gold buried under the ancestral hall?"
The maid nodded, "Yes, my lord, when it comes to the box of gold, the slave and maid don't know much, but the slave and maid know everything from that box of gold."
"Be clear."
Left with also a little impatient opening.
The maid glanced at the general's wife again, and then continued: "Since the box of gold was dug out of the ground by the eldest prince, the eldest prince has once again resumed his old days of spending money, and he has sneaked out of the house again and again, and gambled with the gold again and again......b.
"At first, the general and his wife didn't know about it, and even if they knew that he had sneaked out, they all thought that he didn't have any silver taels on him, and he couldn't make any big noise, until later, he suddenly coughed day and night......
"Including the subordinates who served beside him, they also contracted the disease one after another, and they opened
At the beginning, there were not many people who fell ill, but in the back, almost all the people around the eldest prince fell, and only the eldest prince himself was left."
Speaking of this, the maid sighed deeply, and then continued:
"Although the eldest prince doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, his physical condition is quite good on weekdays, so even if he is sick, his condition has not deteriorated for a while, and the treatment is timely, so he has been sighing heals."
"But after that, the subordinates of the eldest prince were not so lucky, at first, those people just fell ill one after another, and in the back, those subordinates died one after another, and the disease was like a plague, unknowingly infecting half of the people in the general's mansion, and gradually causing the people in the mansion to become ill......
Bai Quan's face became more and more ugly, and everyone present also frowned, and everyone stared at the maid intently.
Then I heard her continue:
"At first, everyone didn't take this disease seriously, until more and more people died, and the generals felt fear, and they had guessed whether it would be contagious, so they closed themselves and tried their best to stop the spread of the virus."
"But later, the people outside gradually got sick, and at that time, the general also began to cough, and he secretly felt bad at that time, and after sending someone to investigate, he found that the first batch of sick people were all in contact with the eldest prince, and after coming and going, I realized that the eldest prince had dug up the box of gold from the ground........."
In the astonished eyes of everyone, the maid continued word by word:
"It wasn't until that moment that the general knew that all the viruses came from that box of gold, and almost all the people who came into contact with the gold had died, leaving only the eldest prince still dying, relying on all kinds of precious medicinal herbs to hang his breath......
"Gold?" Bai Quan muttered to himself, his tone full of surprise.
The maid nodded, and then continued, "The people in the palace all think that it was the eldest prince who dug up the gold buried in the ground and disturbed the ancestors, so he was punished, so everyone didn't dare to mention this matter, which is the main reason why everyone kept silent."
"But now, the prince has come to investigate this matter in person, and the slave knows that if this matter is kept hidden, it will only be more unfavorable to the general's mansion, and most of this kind of secret cannot be hidden, I just hope that the prince will be able to open up after knowing the truth!"
After saying that, the maid kowtowed to the ground again.
"This is everything the slave and maid know, and I hope the prince will see it!"
