Chapter 285: The Secret (1st Update)
Yan Shen raised his eyes, looked at Yan Echo, and didn't stand up immediately.
Yan Echo looked at him, "Didn't you say you want to smear my liver and brain?" Now let you get up, and I don't see you obedient. ”
Yan Shen's eyes lit up, and he stood up quickly, "Third brother, have you promised your younger brother?" ”
Yan Echo didn't say yes, nor did he say no, but turned his head and asked Su Rong, "What do you think?" ”
Su Rong kept looking at the two brothers, listening to their words, watching their expressions, especially Yan Shen's, her heart to save her mother was sincere, she thought about it: "It depends on the sincerity of the Fourth Highness, just swearing by the sky is not enough to be convincing." In today's situation, presumably His Royal Highness also knows that the case is concluded with Concubine Li, which is the most beneficial to His Royal Highness the Prince's current situation, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince agrees to the Fourth Highness to save Concubine Li, it will break the favorable situation now, which is actually quite a risky thing. His Royal Highness the Fourth should know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been sitting in the position of the prince for many years, and he has not allowed the slightest risk, and it is precisely because of this careful and prudent handling of things that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been able to sit in the position of the prince for many years. Now if you want to make an exception for the Four Highnesses, then the Four Highnesses at least have to think about it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has helped, what can he get from it? Don't just talk about it, it's just the loyalty of your brother. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no shortage of brothers, and there are a lot of young ones. ”
Su Rong's words were really sharp and unceremoniously.
Yan Shen's face turned red and white when he heard this, and he was speechless for a while.
"I give the fourth brother half an hour's time, the fourth brother think about it carefully, under the lonely hand, he doesn't raise people who are not smart, and of course he does not raise idlers. There are many people who are loyal to Lonely, and judging from the current situation, there is indeed no shortage of four brothers. Yan Echo's voice was still calm and light.
Yan Shen slowly sat down on the chair when he heard this, lowered his head, and stopped talking.
Su Rong continued to look at the file in her hand.
Yan Echo continued to deal with the matter at hand.
Su Rongke didn't care whether it would disturb Yan Shen's hard thinking, and whether it would affect Yan Echo's handling of official business, she still turned the pages at the speed of the past, and there were more than a dozen pages in a while.
Yan Shen raised his eyes to look at Su Rong in surprise, Su Rong didn't raise his head, and his beautiful eyebrows and eyes were calm and careless.
Before Yan Shen came, she heard that Su Rong was in the prince's carriage when she entered and left the palace today, especially when the prince's chariot personally sent her back to the Shen Mansion, and now many people have suddenly guessed that Miss Su Qi is afraid that she has already had a great friendship with His Royal Highness the Prince.
If she is simply a little concubine in Jiangning County, no matter how she stirs up the storm, she is naturally not afraid, but her identity is the princess of Southern Chu.
The only child of the King of Southern Chu, it can be seen from the attitude of returning to the snow at night that he has the support of the King of Southern Chu and the Yexiang Mansion. With her current attitude towards the East Palace, she is obviously inclined to the East Palace, and she is afraid that she has joined forces.
In this way, Prince Yan Echo not only has the support of the Protectorate Mansion, but also the support of the Southern Chu royal family.
Now that this situation is like this, the eldest prince Yanli and the second prince Yanlin are both involved in a big case, even if they can get out, they will probably be greatly damaged. Not to mention himself, not only can't he save Concubine Li now, but he can't protect himself.
Yan Shen retracted his gaze and lowered his head again.
He didn't notice that after he lowered his head, Su Rong suddenly looked up at him, and Yan Echo also turned his head to look at him.
After half an hour, Yan Shen raised his head again, and said to Yan in a hoarse voice: "Third brother, I know where my grandfather and my uncle and grandfather collected money. They don't know who they're collecting money for, but it's certainly not for me. Like Zhao Fei, they are all people who have been cultivated, and in the past ten years, I am afraid that they have amassed tens of millions of dollars. ”
Yan Echo slowly put down his pen and looked at Yan Shen.
Yan Shen pursed his lips and said: "At the bottom of the Eagle's Beak Cliff a hundred miles away, there is a secret passage set up, and a large number of people are guarding it. On the Shangyuan Festival that year, I was five years old, and I was taken by my grandmother to live in the house, and I hid with the palace people, hid in my grandfather's study, and heard my grandfather talk about setting up a hidden weapon and an eagle's beak cliff. I knew that this must be a great secret, I did not dare to speak out, and then after my grandfather and the people went out of the study, I went back to the palace, and tried to find out about Concubine Li, but she obviously did not know about it, so I buried it in my heart and never mentioned it to anyone again. ”
Yan Echo raised his eyebrows, "When the fourth brother grew up, he didn't explore?" ”
"Naturally, I have searched, but I am afraid of being discovered by my grandfather's people, I have only sent someone once, and when the man came back, he said to me that the secret weapon is extremely exquisite, and there are no less than hundreds of masters to guard it, he saw with his own eyes that someone transported gold and silver in, but he did not dare to alarm people, and came back to report to me to make a decision. I thought about it for a few days, put the matter down, and didn't investigate it again. Yan Shen said: "Fourth brother, I'm not you, if I can't even trust my ancestors, I'm tantamount to surviving in the cracks, and the manpower I can exert is limited." ”
After he finished speaking, he said bitterly: "My brother has long known that I have no chance in that position. ”
Su Rong suddenly spoke, "Kang Lebo doesn't support his own grandson, this is fresh." The forbearance of His Royal Highness is also admirable. But I think that even if His Royal Highness didn't go to explore the Eagle's Beak Cliff, he should have secretly observed Kang Lebo. I wonder if you have been able to observe the people who have been in close contact with him in the past ten years? ”
Yan Shen nodded and shook his head, "My grandfather is very cautious, I only observed one Zhao Fei. ”
And Zhao Fei is dead, and this line is broken.
Su Rong put down the file, looked at him and asked, "What about Qin Yuan in the imperial history?" ”
Yan Shen was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded, "He also seems to have some friendship with his grandfather. ”
Su Rong suddenly smiled, "That's right, this case is connected, it turns out that it is also a case, and it is indeed the handiwork of one person." ”
She stood up and said to Yan Echo: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, lend me all your secret guards, and I will take people to the Eagle's Beak Cliff now." ”
She loves silver the most, and the treasury is not empty now. If you have this large amount of silver, why worry about fighting with Great Wei without military pay?
Yan echo immediately said, "Lone will go with you." ”
Su Rong stopped him, "Don't, don't go, you have a precious body, you can't help but toss, let's go, you just give me people." ”
After she finished speaking, she added, "Give me back Feng Ling for one night first, if you break into the secret weapon, you have to cooperate with me." ”
She looked at Yan Shen again, in line with the principle that people can contribute and follow, "The Fourth Highness also has manpower, right?" Why don't you lend them all to me? If there is silver in it, as you say, someone will carry it out. As long as there is enough silver, Concubine Li's case, about her getting rid of the guilt and clearing the suspicion, I will cover it. ”
