Chapter 961: The Golden House

"There is a golden house in the book. When Qin Yeming followed Pang Jing's side, he heard this sentence at least three times, and after thinking about it, he felt that this was what the Western Regions Protector wanted to convey to the Dragon King, which was originally intended to be mocking, but now it has become a clue.

"Does the book mean the study?" Morin first thought of a possible place to hide the gold.

"It's worth checking out. ”

There are two study rooms in the mansion, one outside and one inside, the night is deep, the twelve Beiting swordsmen are all left in the backyard to guard the city official Mo out, the courtyard seems empty, there is a faint trace of ghosts, Qin Yeming followed closely behind the Dragon King, both ashamed of his timidity, but also relieved by the presence of the Dragon King.

The outer study room was cleaned up, there were not many books, most of them were thin books left by the previous governors, and Qin Yeming quickly lit the oil lamp on the table to illuminate it for the Dragon King.

At a glance, there is no place to hide secrets in this room, Gu Shenwei looked down, Qin Yeming stomped his feet around with an oil lamp, and after a circle, the three of them confirmed that there was no extra space underground.

"Do you have something to say?" Gu Shenwei asked, although the young man tried his best to do things for the Dragon King, there was still confusion in his eyes.

Qin Yeming immediately knelt down, he was not sure of his identity, he didn't know what to say and what not to say, "I am the waiter of the Dragon King, and I should serve the Dragon King wholeheartedly, but I was puzzled and begged the Dragon King for forgiveness." ”

"To be my waiter, you have to stand and talk. ”

Qin Yeming hurriedly got up, his head still hanging low.

"You have to say something, that's one of your duties. ”

Qin Yeming's face was slightly red, "Yes, I'm thinking...... I'm wondering if Pang Jing will send someone to assassinate the city governor, and once the city governor dies, he will be able to live back justifiably. ”

"It's a game, the rules are set by Pang Jing, and I guess he will follow them. Gu Shenwei walked towards the door, not worried about Mo Chu's safety at all, and when he came to the courtyard, he looked at the roof to the east, and added, "Even if he doesn't want to comply, someone will let him comply." ”

There was a crisp sound in the dark night, like a tree branch breaking, Qin Yeming woke up, the interior of the mansion was empty, and there were actually master guards outside.

The three of them came to the inner study in the backyard again, which was not far from Mochu's bedroom, he hadn't slept yet, and he didn't dare to sleep, he saw the dragon king through the crack in the door, and hurriedly ran out, kneeling down naturally, with a panicked face, "Dragon King, it's an honor to be able to serve you, but I'm too old, I'm dizzy from morning to morning, I'm really afraid that I will accidentally delay the dragon king's big event......"

Mo Chu didn't know the bottom in his heart, this was to euphemistically ask the Dragon King's intentions, Gu Shenwei said to him: "Be the governor of the city for the last three months, I will send you back to the grassland, and there is still a place for you by the side of the new Khan King." ”

Mo kowtowed and thanked him, and he let go of most of his thoughts, he knew how to be a good city governor: don't say a word, don't ask more about a thing.

Qin Yeming noticed that the overseer had been kneeling and talking, and the dragon king accepted it calmly, without letting him get up, and began to figure out the difference between the inside and outside of the dragon king in his heart, so he became more down-to-earth.

Mo Lin was also observing, this was a habit he developed when guarding the old Khan King's side, in his opinion, the Dragon King was still too young, and his methods were a little immature, but he was more mature than most princes, and the style between Enwei and the Old Khan King was implied, but the difference was even more obvious: the Dragon King was heavily guarded, even for an inconspicuous attendant, he had to take it seriously, far less free than the Old Khan King.

Moide returned to the bedroom, finally able to sleep with his eyes closed.

There are more books in the inner study, but the layout is narrow, and there is no possibility of hiding things.

"Maybe it's been carried away. Mo Lin guessed, "Pang Jing has been here for almost a month, and there is enough time to send the gold to the Central Plains, or put it in the barracks outside the city, it will be safer." ”

Gu Shenwei shook his head, "Pang Jing doesn't trust the army outside the city, and if he wants to send the Meng family's property out of Biyu City, it is impossible to leave no trace. "There are always people watching this mansion, and even if a basket of meat and vegetables goes in and out, it will be reported to the Dragon King.

Gu Shenwei slowly circled around the room, his fingers brushed over the bookshelves, tables, and walls in turn, "The most important thing is that Dubu King has not achieved his goal yet, how can he let the bribe leave like this?" He knocked twice on the wall, it was solid, "The gold should have been here long before Pang Jing moved in, he hurriedly moved in, and then used a series of exaggerated actions to cover up ......"

Mo Lin saw the shadow of the old Khan King more and more from the dragon king, and blurted out: "The world is like floating clouds, and people's hearts are like mirror lakes." Seeing the puzzled glances of the Dragon King and Qin Yeming, Mo Lin smiled and explained: "This is a sentence that the old Khan King often said, the enemy's conspiracy is like a floating cloud reflected on the surface of the lake, it seems to be unpredictable, in fact, the lake surface has not changed, if you want to find a flaw, don't stare at the changing floating clouds, but observe the immobile lake." ”

Qin Yeming seemed to understand it, Gu Shenwei nodded again and again, but there is no impeccable means in this world, the old Khan King saw through the conspiracy, but he couldn't see the madness clearly, the former always has traces to follow, and the latter often goes against common sense, Gu Shenwei never dared to be sure of the Henu's next plan, and it was impossible to speculate on her actions with interests and grievances.

He took out the dagger from his arms and lightly slashed it on the wall three times, the triangular wall skin fell to the ground, Qin Yeming walked over and raised the lamp to look at it - the golden light flickered, and the faces of the people were warm.

"It turned out to be a real house of gold. Qin Yeming didn't have much concept of money, but his voice still became trembling and hoarse, as if he had a piece of gold in his throat, "How much gold does this whole room get?"

"It's not just a whole house, it's the whole governor's mansion. Morin said, finding that his voice was normal, and his heart felt much better, he definitely couldn't stand it when he was young**, and now he can't regard gold as dung, but it is enough to control greed, "Jinpeng Castle has thickened the walls with gold nuggets, which is not a small project. ”

Jinpeng Fort has time, Mo De had already gone to Tongtianguan more than a year ago to serve as the commander of the Beiting army, and since then he has been imprisoned, the governor's mansion is idle, and the guards are all Jinpeng Castle people, and the walls can be thickened calmly with the least amount of manpower.

"The King of Solo Steps...... Why don't you transport the gold back to Jinpeng Castle?" Qin Yeming asked boldly.

"Because he didn't want to keep the money in his hands from the beginning. Gu Shenwei said that the robbery he conspired with Meng Mingshu did King Dubu a great favor at that time, but the Long Army did not suffer a loss, and only the Meng family was unlucky, "If Prince Luo Luo wins, the mansion will be his, and the people from the Central Plains are here, and King Dubu will send it correctly." ”

"Hey, in this way, the collusion between Dubu King and Pang Jing is not a day or two. "Mo Lin is not a man of many tongues, but he is from the North Court and is very willing to see the Dragon King break with the Central Plains.

Mo Lin guessed correctly, maybe the Dubu King's forbearance for a while was just to wait for Pang Jing's arrival.

"Block the wall. Gu Shenwei ordered.

Qin Yeming asked in surprise: "Don't you take it away?" Pang Jing must be trying to recapture the mansion, and Jinpeng Fort will not give up the gold in vain." ”

"There's no rush. Gu Shenwei said without much explanation.

Qin Ye shut up with amusement, picked up the wall skin that had fallen on the ground, carefully put it back in place, and pushed the bookshelf next to it to cover it up, so that no one would notice anything unusual unless they were specifically observed.

"I'll keep it a secret," Morin said. A simple promise, Mo Lin felt that it was enough, if the other party was the old Khan King, he didn't even have to say these four words.

Gu Shenwei respected the promise of the grass and trees, so he didn't say anything and left the house with Qin Yeming.

The two returned to the Nancheng Protector's Mansion at dawn, Qin Yeming thought about it all the way, and felt that there was only one way to gain the trust of the Dragon King, so after quickly laying out the futon for the Dragon King, he took a few steps back, bent his body deeply, and said, "Please allow me to cut off my tongue so as not to **." ”

Gu Shenwei looked at the young man, felt a little funny, and said: "There are many ways to **, and the tongue is just one of them. ”

Qin Yeming was slightly stunned, and said seriously: "I understand, I won't let the Dragon King worry." "Stand down.

"It's useless to commit suicide, I'll send you to Pang Jing, you are no longer an obscurity, death itself is an important piece of information. ”

Qin Yeming was completely stunned this time, he didn't expect things to be so complicated, and he didn't need any of the plans he had originally thought of, "Dragon King, I'm ...... I ......"

"You actually don't have any secrets to leak, Pang Jing and I know very well, if someone really buys you, I suggest you collect more money, and then tell him the truth. ”

Qin Yeming was dumbfounded.

"Prime Minister Zhong Heng will come at any time, and he will wake me up as soon as he arrives. ”

"Yes. Qin Yeming answered, exited the room, closed the door gently, and was puzzled by the Dragon King's words, and finally he came to a conclusion: never guess the true thoughts of the Dragon King, just follow the order and follow him.

This is the most correct decision made by the young Qin Yeming in his life.

Zhong Heng really came early, and there were more doubts in his stomach than Qin Yeming, but the Dragon King didn't let him participate in the affairs of the Meng family, so he tried not to ask too much.

"The matter of the competition is almost discussed, only the place and time remain, and there must be a place where all parties can trust. ”

"I have a suggestion that you can bring up today, and Fortune Wings should agree. ”

"Dragon King, please speak. ”

"The Governor's Mansion. ”

"That's the territory of the North City, Jinpeng Castle...... Is that why the Dragon King brought the ink back?"

"Well, not only that, but I also have to send more people to the North City, which is an additional condition, and Jinpeng Castle must accept it, otherwise I will have to choose another place for the competition. ”

Zhong Heng smiled, he didn't know the truth, but he knew that Jinpeng Castle had a handle in the hands of the Dragon King, and it would be very easy to negotiate, "That's fine, it stands to reason that the Overseer's Mansion will soon be the City Lord's Mansion." What about time, what does the Dragon King recommend?"

"The sooner the better. ”

"Yes. Zhong Heng was about to retire, but finally decided to say more, "The person who asks for the debt will come to the door soon, and the dragon king must be prepared, and ...... Now is an extraordinary time, if the dragon king opens up to the betrayer again, I am afraid that more villains will be emboldened. ”

"I just want to solve the problem. Gu Shenwei said, this is exactly what Zhong Heng taught him many years ago, "Don't worry, betrayers will definitely be punished." ”

Xiao Fengchai and Lu Qiying are both waiting for the Dragon King.
