Chapter 166: Gold Hidden at the Bottom of the Lake

Su Qingcheng knew the water, and she deliberately swam in the direction where Princess Huaining fell into the water.

The people she arranged had already entered the lake, and it seemed that they were fishing for people, but in fact they went straight to the treasure chest at the bottom of the lake.

"Strange, why hasn't it been so long?"

"Nothing will happen, that's Princess Huaining and Princess Yunan......"

After half a pillar of incense, Su Qingcheng and Princess Huaining were finally rescued, and they were brought out with them, as well as the money at the bottom of Fu Xingzhou's lake.

Princess Huaining was already unconscious, and the maidservants gathered around her to cover her with clean clothes, Su Qingcheng gasped for breath, and Gu Huoyan, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately stepped forward to check the pulse of the two.

He first threw a worried look at Su Tingcheng, and Su Tingcheng said with his mouth: "I'm fine." ”

Afterwards, Gu Huoyan went to see Princess Huaining, who had fainted, and drained the lake water blocked in her mouth for her: "It's no big deal, the princess is frightened, just drink some soothing soup." ”

Princess Huaining's maidservants hurriedly took her to the wing.

Gu Huoyan came over to take Su Chengcheng's pulse, he lowered his head slightly, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "You did it on purpose?" ”

Su Qingcheng still had water droplets on his eyelashes, and he blinked and asked, "Ye Yutai called you here?" ”

"No, I'm here, he was very worried when he saw you fall into the water, and asked Fu Yi to save you," Gu Huoyan pretended to take her pulse and quipped, "Fortunately, I stopped it, I think you won't fall into the water so easily, there is definitely a conspiracy." ”

Su Qingcheng didn't hear what he said at all, and his mind was full of the sentence that Ye Yutai was worried about her.

Gu Huoyan said: "Princess Yunan is fine, pay attention not to get caught in the cold." ”

Danmo immediately stepped forward from the side and covered Su Chengcheng with a clean coat.

Su Qingcheng raised his eyes and met the gaze of Ye Yutai not far away.

His eyes were like hot spring water in the cold winter, and his cold appearance contained strong feelings, and somewhere in Su Chengcheng's heart was collapsing......

"What is this?"

The crowd of onlookers then turned their attention to the gold and silver jewels that were fished out of the bottom of the lake.

Su Qingcheng suppressed his panicked heart, and his eyes dodged.

"Your Royal Highness Duanwang, if it weren't for these boxes that hooked my clothes and Princess Huaining's clothes underwater, we should have been able to float up soon."

She got up, ignoring the soaked cold, walked straight to Fu Xingzhou, and asked coldly, "I don't know what is in these boxes?" ”

Fu Xingzhou frowned, pretending to be innocent: "This king doesn't know what this is." ”

"What does Duanwang mean that I don't know what the box that appeared in the lotus pond in your house is?"

"This king really doesn't know."

Su Qingcheng sneered, thought for a moment and said, "Since that's the case, let's open it and take a look." ”

As soon as the words fell, the guards who picked up the box opened the box together, and countless gold, silver and jewelry were exposed in front of people's eyes.

"These are...... Gold? ”

"Yes, there are many jade and pearl ......"

The people around are all people who have heads and faces in the capital and have a high status, and they can see these things clearly and understand, all of them are some valuable treasures.

And everyone is a smart person, these treasures appeared under the bottom of the lake in Duanwang's mansion, except that they were hidden by him, it is difficult to have any other explanation.

If it's just one box, it's nothing, but there are twenty or thirty boxes here......

This is much more extraordinary for a prince's financial resources.

When Fu Xingzhou fell into the water, he thought that this matter might be discovered, but there was still a trace of luck in his heart.

He didn't expect that this moment would really come.

Fu Xingzhou pretended to be very surprised, and his tone was a little angry: "Why do these things appear in this king's mansion?!" ”

Su Tingcheng saw through it at a glance, and chased after him and asked, "Why doesn't King Duan know?" Wasn't the renovation work of the Nanshan Annex, handled by King Duan? This lotus pond was also designed by King Duan himself, but now he says that he doesn't know, which is a bit far-fetched. ”

His eyebrows furrowed, and there was a little more hatred in his gaze when he looked at Su Qingcheng.

Does this woman have to push herself into a desperate situation?

Su Qingcheng was not afraid of his gaze at all, and glared back.

The people around listened to Su Chengcheng's words, and whispered again, and some things that they knew were also put on the surface.

"Could it be that King Duan has a private collection of jewels......

"Hey, don't say these words in front of everyone, be quiet, be quiet."

"That is, what will become of what you say if it reaches the ears of the emperor?"

Fu Xingzhou naturally knew that these people were somewhat downlanded. But he was extremely glad at this time that there was no prince who was at odds with him.

He didn't even send invitations to King Yan and the Thirteen Princes, if this matter was seen by them with their own eyes, he was afraid that no matter how much he could redeem it, it would be in vain.

"The design and renovation of the Nanshan Annex, which was indeed carried out by this king, is right. But there will be some people who have a heart to do something while the king is away," Fu Xingzhou put his hands around his chest, and there was no panic on his face, "After all, it is impossible for this king, staring day and night, right, Princess Yunan?" ”

Su Chengcheng couldn't deny it, his hand hidden in his shirt and clenched slightly.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Fu Xingzhou's tone couldn't help but become a little more confident, and calmly ordered the people behind him: "Come on, go and bring the people who dig the lake to this king." ”

Within a stick of incense, several palace guards pressed a peasant-looking person to Fu Xingzhou.

Su Qingcheng looked this person up and down, frowning slightly.

Digging a lake is a hard job, and it is generally a burly, rough-looking person, not to mention how tall you have to be, but at least you have to look strong.

And the person in front of him, who is not as good as the guards of the palace, how can he be the one who really digs the lake?

Fu Xingzhou kicked on the man and asked, "When you were digging the lake, did you put something on the bottom of the king's lake?" ”

This person trembled, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "The prince spares his life, the prince spares his life." I was an honest man, and I stole the treasures of the caravan. At this time, the prince found someone to dig the lake. I couldn't find a place to hide my treasure, so I thought I could hide it at the bottom of the lake...... The prince spares his life! ”

He immediately confessed to the charge.

Fu Xingzhou hooked the corners of his mouth, looked at everyone with the truth revealed, and finally fixed his eyes on Su Qingcheng's body: "Princess Yunan, isn't this over?" It's all about me framed by this thief. ”

"This person doesn't look like a coolie worker, won't King Duan investigate it deeply?"

Fu Xingzhou said: "How can Princess Yunan judge people by her appearance, he doesn't look like a coolie, maybe his subordinates are." ”
