Chapter 517: Confidant

Even the Qiu family, who doesn't care about world affairs, heard about King Pingxi's digging of treasures in his own house. Qiu Shi asked Li's mother anxiously: "Is this true?"

Mother Li was not sure, she hesitated for a moment and said, "It's spread all over the outside world, so it should be true."

Holding the Buddhist beads, Qiu Shi looked very anxious, and said: "This wealth is not exposed, why doesn't Yuxi even know this truth?" all know.

Mother Li couldn't laugh or cry: "Old Madam, there is nothing to hide. The Palace is heavily guarded and not a single fly can fly in. No matter how much money the Prince and Princess have, no one will dare to make a move." Unless these people want to die.

Qiu Shi still shook her head and said: "After all, it's better to be more cautious." Thinking back, Yuxi acted very cautiously at the beginning. But now, acting more and more domineering, and more and more unscrupulous.

Madam Li hesitated for a moment before she said: "Madam, in the northwest, the prince and concubine are the sky. They don't need to be as cautious as they are in the capital."

Qiu Shi still shook his head.

Seeing this, Mama Li immediately changed the subject and said something else: "Old Madam, Madam's due date is just a few days away." Mama Li was going to send Ye's daily expenses in the countryside. So this matter, Li's mother is very clear.

Qiu sighed, and said: "I don't know if I can see that child in my lifetime." This child is destined not to return to the Han family, and it is impossible to call her grandmother.

Mother Li was sad, when she decided to give birth to this child, the child's fate was already doomed: "With the care of the master, I will definitely have no worries about food and clothing in the future."

Qiu Shi said: "When she grows up, we will prepare a generous dowry for her." Han Jianming told Qiu Shi that Ye Shi was pregnant with a girl.

After saying this, Qiu stood up and said, "I'm going to go to morning classes." Qiu would chant scriptures every morning and evening, and was very devout.

Six days later, Meng Nian reported the news to Yan Wushuang: "I heard that the entrance to the secret room was built very secretly, and it was purely accidental to find it."

Yan Wushuang listened to the whole cause and effect, and said: "It's really lucky." After searching for three years, I couldn't find it, and a maid accidentally discovered it. There is no other explanation except good luck.

Although both Yunqing and Yuxi felt that Zaozao was a lucky star, the husband and wife had a tacit understanding and kept Zaozao hidden. It was only said to the outside world that there was a maid who was greedy for coolness, hid in the rockery and accidentally discovered the secret way. Because Zao Zao didn't tell the outside world when he discovered the secret way, but only told Yu Xi secretly. So this matter was well covered up by Yunqing and Yuxi. Yan Wushuang did not discover this through careful work.

Meng Nian couldn't help agreeing with this, and said, "Yes! It's really lucky. In addition to tens of millions of taels of gold and silver, there are also a large number of antique calligraphy and paintings and rare treasures in the secret path." There is no need to worry about money.

Upon hearing this, Yan Wushuang asked: "Ji Xuan has done so many evil deeds and accumulated all the money, but in the end, it is all at the expense of Yunqing and Han."

Meng Nian nodded and said: "Yes! First the gold mine was discovered, and now the treasure in the secret path was found. If Ji Xuan was still alive, he would definitely vomit blood and die of anger." It feels like Ji Xuan is doing it for Yun Qing I'm making wedding clothes with Yuxi.

Feng Dajun, Yuan Ying and others all knew about the gold mine. The more people know about it, the more secrets it can hide. However, although Yan Wushuang knew the location of the gold mine, the gold mine was heavily guarded, and the people entering and leaving were checked very strictly, so it was impossible to go in and do bad things.

Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "The one who wants to vomit blood is probably Yu Chunhao." Ji Xuan died in Chunhao's hands, and I believe Yu Chunhao already knew the location of these treasures. It's a pity that these treasures are hidden in the palace.

Even if you know the location, you can't hold it. Now that these treasures were discovered by Yun Qing, the treasures that were regarded as belongings in their pockets just disappeared, and it would be hard for anyone to change them.

The discovery of the treasure by the Pingxi Palace quickly became a topic of conversation among people in the capital under the publicity of those who cared. Yuchen was a little surprised and asked Zhao who told her about it: "Biao sister-in-law, is this true?"

Mrs. Zhao nodded and said: "It is said that there are noses and eyes, so it shouldn't be fake. Besides, I heard that in addition to mountains of gold and silver and antique calligraphy and paintings, there are also many rare treasures. Among these treasures are night pearls the size of bowls, and rubies the size of eggs. , and many other precious items." She had never heard of such a big night pearl and ruby.

Can the rare treasures in the secret road compare with the collection of the royal family for more than two hundred years? Furthermore, where there are bowl-sized luminous pearls and egg-sized rubies, it must be a rumor. Yuchen said: "Apart from these, are there other things?"

Mrs. Zhao smiled and said what she heard: "I heard that Princess Pingxi opened a women's martial arts gym. Tell me, who would let their daughter go to practice martial arts?" Unless the family can't survive anymore , will let her daughter this way.

Yuchen shook his head gently and said: "As far as I know, Zao Zao has been practicing martial arts with Huo Changqing for a year." It's no secret that Zao Zao practiced martial arts with Huo Changqing.

Mrs. Zhao felt that ordinary people could not understand what Yuxi did: "Let the child go to martial arts? Could it be that Han Yuxi is planning to let his daughter inherit the family business in the future?" Thinking of Yuxi's childlessness, Zhao's heart skipped a beat and said, "Yuchen , I heard that Han Yuxi's pregnancy is likely to be a girl again. She has no children, and she doesn't want Yunqing to take a concubine to have a child. Maybe it's because she really wants her daughter to inherit the family business!" Looking at Han Yuxi's expression on Zao What Zao did was clearly cultivating heirs!

Yuchen's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't show it on his face, and said, "How does sister-in-law know that Yuxi is pregnant with a girl?" Yuchen felt that Zhao's news was too well-informed. Normally, things like Yu Xi's pregnancy are classified as confidential.

Zhao said with a smile: "I heard that Han Yuxi's belly is round, and her appearance is more outstanding than if she is not pregnant, so there are nine times out of ten that she is a daughter." Anyone who has met Yuxi can tell. But if you meet more people, naturally it will no longer be a secret.

Yuchen's mind moved, but he smiled and said: "This is not sure." There is nothing wrong with it, but in order to confirm Zhao's words, Yuchen asked Yan Wushuang at night.

Yuchen turned to Yan Wushuang and said: "I heard that people outside are rumoring that Yuxi is pregnant with another girl? Your lord, is this true?" Yuchen knew that Yan Wushuang had placed a lot of people in the northwest. If there are such rumors, Yan Wushuang must know.

Yan Wushuang nodded and said: "Yeah. But we won't know until after the birth of a daughter." When she was pregnant, she looked like a girl, but she was born a boy. This kind of situation is common.

Yuchen said: "Yuxi has already given birth to two daughters, if this child has another daughter, it will be three girls. If there is no son, even if Yunqing doesn't care, the people around Yunqing will not care."

Yan Wushuang glanced at Yuchen, and said: "Even if this fetus is a daughter, Han Yuxi's health is very good, no one dares to say that she will not be able to give birth to a son in the future."

Yu Chen said: "Before Yu Xi gave birth to a son, there will be people with floating minds below, and this is the best time to win over these people."

Yan Wushuang smiled and said: "It's better than before. However, you still don't think comprehensively enough. As long as Yunqing guards the one-acre three-point land in the northwest and doesn't move rashly, even if he doesn't have a son, the people below won't be distracted. " After a pause, Yan Wushuang said again: "Even if Han Yuxi fails to give birth to a son in the future, as long as Yun Lan has enough ability, he can still rule the Northwest." Not less.

Yuchen didn't quite believe this, and said, "How is it possible? Zaozao is a woman, how can she take over the position of King Pingxi?"

Yan Wushuang thought much further than Yuchen: "So what about women? Han Yuxi is not a woman, but she is now in charge of the Northwest. With Han Yuxi as a precedent, as long as Yunlan has enough ability in the future, the identity of a woman is of great importance to her." It’s not a big problem.” Marrying a woman who is stronger than oneself is not something everyone can accept calmly. But if you can accept it calmly, the benefits you will get are infinite. The best example is Yunqing.

Yuchen heard Yan Wushuang's meaning: "The prince means that if Yunqing has other ideas, this matter cannot be carried out?"

Yan Wushuang nodded and said: "Yunqing and Han Yuxi have a high reputation in the Northwest, and they are popular among the people. They want Zaozao to become the ruler in the Northwest. As long as the road is paved, it will not be difficult. It will become a fatal weakness in the future. Those people with insight are the most able to measure gains and losses, and they will not work for Yunqing who doesn't even have an heir." In this world, men look down on women out of ten, Think of women as slaves of men. This is also because although the situation in the northwest is getting better and better, and there are more and more prospects, those talented and ambitious people did not go to the northwest to join Yunqing and Yuxi. First of all, a woman is in charge of the Northwest, and they are not happy to let them obey a woman's orders; secondly, Yunqing and Yuxi have no heirs. Without an heir, everything in the future is likely to fall into the hands of foreigners. Then there will be big changes in the future, and the risks will be even greater.

Yuchen was silent for a while and said: "But with Yuxi's personality, she definitely doesn't want to stay in the Northwest for the rest of her life." Yuxi is an ambitious person, and everyone agrees with this.

Yan Wushuang smiled and said: "You are right. With Han Yuxi's personality, he must not be content with just living in the barren land in the northwest. But there is one thing you have overlooked. Han Yuxi is a very smart person. Such a person She will never make wedding clothes for others."

Yuchen asked with some doubts: "My lord, what do you mean by that?"

Yan Wushuang was in a good mood today, and patiently explained to Yuchen: "If you fail to seek to seize the world, the whole family will be finished. If you succeed, she will not have a son, which is equivalent to making wedding clothes for others. And Han Yuxi will not make wedding clothes for others." Yes. So, before Han Yuxi has a son, she won't make any big moves."

If Yuxi was here, she would definitely sigh, the person who knows you best is often not your closest person, but your enemy. From the side, Yan Wushuang is Yuxi's confidant.

Yuchen lowered his head, and said after a while: "If Yuxi can control her desire and ambition as you said, it would be terrible."

Yan Wushuang smiled and sighed: "Han Yuxi's greatest advantage is judging the situation. She will not let go of the beneficial and make good use of it. If it is harmful, she will try her best to avoid it. If it cannot be avoided, she will face it. The reason why Han Yuxi was able to reach a high position." Of course, this is also what Yan Wushuang admires most about Yuxi.

Thinking back on the past, Yuchen looked up at Yan Wushuang and said, "My lord is right, Yuxi is indeed such a person." Yan Wushuang's understanding of Yuxi made Yuchen feel sore. (to be continued)
