Zhennan Palace, Tianwang Palace.

Wen Yuli sat in the hall, looked at the file on the table, and frowned slightly.

On the right side of the seat, a handsome young man with starry eyebrows and a lofty spirit, named Peng Chai, is the champion of the three southeastern states this year, and won the top three places!

At the same time, he is also a close friend of Wen Guan, the eldest prince of Zhennan Wang.

Wen Yuli attaches great importance to this person and intends to cultivate it, and in the more than a month that Lu Youzhi has left, he has always taken Peng Chai with him.

"Father, this is a file transferred by Erchen from the Tianfu Shouzang History, which clearly records that Mr. Lu interrogated the illegal business in the city before leaving."

Wen Guan stood below and hugged his fists.

According to the confession of the two merchants, the glazed treasures they auctioned at a high price came from Estuary City, and they also brought strange clothes called rubber raincoats.

Because they were recognized, the glass treasures sold by the two at a high price were goods from other places on the bad streets, so they were sent to the government.

"Bayou ......"

Wen Yuli tapped his fingers lightly on the tabletop, and said inexplicably, "Your third brother is at the mouth of the river." ”

Wen Guan nodded, "This is also what Erchen thinks is strange, since Mr. Lu found that a large number of glazed treasures were scattered in Hekou City, he did not report to his father as soon as possible, but took General Han all the way west on the grounds of returning to his hometown to visit relatives, which is really puzzling!" ”

Wen Yuli took a deep breath, "What about the stolen goods seized by the Yamen earlier?" ”

"Back to my father, after the stolen goods were confiscated, they were all hidden in the dark room by Mr. Lu, and the sons only found out the specific location, but they didn't dare to open the door to verify it privately!"

Lu Youzhi is also the first sergeant under his father's account, in terms of importance, it is by no means comparable to him as a young prince, even if Wen Guan intends to arrange his cronies to his father's side to pave the way for the future, but Lu Youzhi's face, he dare not give it.

And this kind of thing must be pushed along the river, and it must not be done too deliberately.

King Zhennan nodded slightly and looked at the young man on the right, "Peng Chai, what do you think?" ”

The young man owes himself, "The minister feels that what Mr. Lu did must have a deep meaning, and Mr. Lu's loyalty to the prince, naturally there is no need to doubt it, everything is better to wait for Mr. to return and talk in person." ”

Although he is young, he uses a trick to retreat as advance.

deliberately led the topic to Lu Youzhi's loyalty, which not only made Wen Yu suspicious, but also did not make himself appear too reckless, showing that he wanted to replace him.

King Zhennan pondered for a moment and looked at his son, "Wen Guan, ask someone to open the door of the dark room and present the contents inside, remember, you must not destroy any objects that Mr. Lu has placed in it at will!" ”

A flash of joy flashed in Wen Guan's eyes, the matter had come to this point, and most of his goal had been achieved.

"Erchen takes orders!"

Half an hour later, as the silver armor of the house carried dozens of glass treasures to the main hall, Wen Yuli's expression gradually changed from doubt to shock!

Even Peng Chai, who thought he had seen a lot of the world, couldn't help but gasp!

On the day of Peng Chai High School, he was appreciated by the King of Zhennan and took him to see the private treasury where the treasures were stored in the palace, and he himself remembered the green glazed plum blossom bottle vividly!

But these glazed treasures in front of me, whether in terms of texture or novelty of shape, are far more than the plum blossom bottle that Wen Yuli kept privately!

After a long time, Wen Yuli came back from his astonishment, frowned and asked, "How much silver are these glass treasures sold for in the hands of those two merchants?" ”

Wen Guan bowed down and replied, "Returning to my father, each piece ranges from five hundred to one thousand taels, and the price of that set of zodiac glass bottles is more than ten thousand taels of silver!" ”

"But Erchen sent someone to inquire that these things are only a few dozen copper coins in other cities, and many people's homes, even water cups, plates and bowls are made of glass, and they are all transported from Hekou City!"

Bang –

Wen Yuli slapped the table heavily, anger appeared on his face, "I think that the king's green glazed plum blossom bottle is hard to find, and it is regarded as a treasure by this king, but when did it become a cheap commodity that everyone can afford?!" ”

His current mood is like learning that he was married home many years ago as a wife for baby bumps, but she used to be a kiln sister who was a good man, and even the lowliest ruffian hooligan could spend a good night with him!

And Lu Youzhi, who is most trusted by him, knew the truth of the matter, but deliberately concealed it and did not report it, but he didn't know what he had in mind and secretly went to Sister Yao's hometown!

"Father's anger is at ease!"

Wen Guan said respectfully, "Mr. Lu may have unspeakable secrets, and it is inconvenient to express them, so he does not deliberately despise his father!" ”

Wen Yuli snorted coldly, "It's inconvenient to express? ”

"This king doesn't know what he likes about Wen Chen's stinky boy, secretly helping everywhere, could it be that this king's family affairs are still an outsider's turn to worry about this king?!"

On the side, Peng Chai slowly got up, and said with some concern, "Lord Wang, in fact, what we should be most concerned about now is not the value of these glass treasures, but their provenance that makes the minister a little worried......

"Tell me about it!" Wen Yuli retracted his anger and sat back down.

"Do you remember that the prince still wrote from Hekou a year later to ask Lincheng for subsidies?"

"Somewhat impressed......"

"If the minister is not mistaken, the specific amount should be 120,000 taels of silver, and after discussion among the ministers, it was reduced to 80,000 taels."

Peng chases a serious way.

"But since Estuary City can sell glazed treasures at such a low price, it means that they are most likely proficient in the specific methods of making glaze, and they have earned a lot of silver from this, and they should not be short of money, so why do they write to Lincheng to ask for subsidies?"

Wen Yuli glared at his eyes and looked at his son who was still stunned below, "Ask you, why?" ”

Wen Guan sneered, "Lotus...... The news that Hexiang and they sent back has always been very ...... It's normal......"

"Confused!"

King Zhennan glanced at him hatefully, he still underestimated this Wen Chen after all, but he didn't expect that his eldest son's cronies who had been cultivated for so many years had already taken refuge in others!

The most worrying thing is that Wen Chen seems to have already sensed Lincheng's attitude towards him, and decided to hide it from the beginning, God knows how many secrets this kid has hidden that has not been discovered!

Just as Wen Yuli was thinking about how to deal with this matter, an exclamation suddenly sounded outside the door!

"Father! Oh no, no, no! ”

I saw the second son Wen Yue running in in a hurry, looking flustered, and accidentally fell when he entered the door.

"Why are you so flustered?" Wen Yu said unhappily.

"Tianjing City...... There's a letter from Tianjing City! ”

"Come on, come on, look at the second brother, who has never seen the world!"

Wen Guan casually made a joke.

"Alas!" Wen Yue was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "That one sent a secret letter in advance, and the saint learned that his father had broken the Southern Qi Dynasty half a year ago, and Long Yan was happy, and he sent Princess Liyang to lead the envoys to come to condole!" ”

When the other three heard this, they all had blank looks on their faces.

This kid drank too much, and he didn't wake up from last night's wine, right?

"Second brother, I'm afraid you're in a daze, why did your father send troops to recruit Southern Qi? Besides, are you eating dry rice when you are Sun Wuyi? If his father didn't lead the army to conquer in person, who would still be able to break Sun Wuyi's iron bucket deer city? ”

"Not my father!"

"It's Wen Chen! Half a year ago, that kid led people to capture Lucheng, set a trap and slaughtered 30,000 Chiling troops of Southern Qi, Sun Wuyi drank hatred and killed himself, and Zhao Lun, the new emperor of Southern Qi who drove the expedition, has long since become Wen Chen's prisoner! ”
