Chapter 1421 General
The latest website: Zhou Shuren walked very slowly on his way out of the palace. Both he and the emperor knew that the prince would be assassinated, but they didn't count such a large-scale assassin. The dead soldiers who followed the emperor had to show up.
Now that the prince is safe, the emperor is relieved, but his grandson didn't mention a word, yes, other people are not as important as the prince, but what about his grandson?
His grandson and Shangguan Liu were the crown prince's cover, the assassins would rather kill by mistake than let go, his grandson was very dangerous.
After leaving the palace, Zhou Shuren looked back at the palace, cursing in his heart, the damn imperial power era, took a deep breath, and made another note of the Wen family.
What can he do now, he can only wait for the news, it is impossible to send someone there, it is really annoying, the damn news is lagging, how good is the modern age, you can know everything with just one phone call.
In the Liu family, the Guo family opened a large storehouse. The large storeroom was accumulated by the Liu family for many years. The Liu family has accumulated a lot of good things for generations, and they took the opportunity to collect some when they were in chaos.
Mrs. Guo chose the engagement gift for the Zhou family, and saw her youngest son as soon as she went out, "Why are you here?"
Liu Yuanbo felt embarrassed, "I just came to see it."
Thinking of her eldest son's engagement, Mrs. Guo couldn't help laughing, "Your brother's engagement, you dislike the expensive gift you chose, and you hold on to it desperately and don't let it go."
Liu Yuanbo blushed, "Mother, I was still young at that time."
The age difference between him and his eldest brother is not young. He was only born when his eldest brother was ten years old, and he was only six years old when his eldest brother got married.
Mrs. Guo, "You're just picky. At that time, your elder brother's face was black."
It is also difficult for the eldest son to grow up. Fortunately, he has been growing up with his father. If he really wants to follow his husband, he will pick on his son. When the younger son is born, the younger son will still stare at him.
Guo also thought that when she got engaged, her father-in-law and mother-in-law chose her because she could spend money and was willing to spend money. Father-in-law and mother-in-law were afraid that the Liu family's reputation would be misled by their husband-in-law.
I really didn't expect that she and Xianggong would hit it off so well.
Mrs. Guo pointed to the gift from the designated relative, "Are you still picking this time?"
Liu Yuanbo glanced at it, cleared his throat, "Could it be too little?"
Mrs. Guo, "...you really followed your father, don't let your elder brother know what you said today."
The eldest son knows he will cry,
This younger brother was raised for nothing.
Liu Yuanbo rubbed his nose, "The second wife of the Zhou family is rich, and you have also seen Miss Zhou's understanding of gemstones. Master Zhou must have a high vision."
Mrs. Guo smiled, "The eldest daughter of the Zhou family has a generous dowry, and the younger daughter of the Zhou family will get married this week, and the dowry will not be bad."
Although she likes Yudie very much, who would dislike a small dowry? For a young lady of the same background, she would choose a dowry with a lot of money. She lives in the capital with money. As a mother, she naturally hopes that her son and daughter-in-law will be well-off in the future.
In the afternoon, the prince arrived at the mountain village. This was the result of the prince leaving before dawn, which shows how far Mingrui and his wife had traveled.
After an assassination, the general guarding the city of Huizhou did not dare to be careless. If the prince had an accident in Huizhou, all officials in Huizhou would be implicated.
There were many soldiers escorting the prince, and the prince was surrounded by dead soldiers, and the small mountain village was besieged inside and out.
Mingrui and Shangguan Liu met the prince, and the emotion in the prince's eyes didn't fluctuate much. In two days, the prince had already calmed down, "It's good that you are fine."
Shangguan Liu sighed in his heart, this was the first time the prince was assassinated, the prince would remember it deeply, and he would not remember it when he experienced a lot in the future.
Mingrui stood on one side, and he also felt that the prince was different, his appearance remained the same, his aura changed, and he became more and more majestic as a crown prince.
The prince smiled, "Both of you have made great contributions, and you will be rewarded when you return to Beijing."
Mingrui and the two thanked the prince.
When the crown prince met the two, he wanted to see the gold and asked Vice General Wang, "What can we find out?"
Deputy General Wang said: "Someone recruited. There were a lot of people in the mountain village when the mining was first started. As the withdrawals became less and less, they have basically withdrawn. They belong to the most marginal people. It is not clear where the gold flows. However, there will be people in half a year. Come collect the gold once."
Prince, "It's half a year now?"
"It hasn't arrived yet. The last time I took gold was February."
The prince raised his eyebrows, "I will come again in August to pick up the gold, and I will take Gu to see the gold."
Today all the gold stored in the cave was moved down and placed in the house.
The prince entered the room with confidence, but was still disappointed when he saw the amount of gold, "The gold mine is exhausted."
Vice General Wang is also heartbroken. This is Huizhou's gold mine, which has been hollowed out under the nose for so many years.
The crown prince picked up the gold and looked at it. The purity was good, and his heart ached even more. He also thought about going back to Beijing to ask his father to reward him with some silver.
The prince took a pen and paper to write a letter to his father, and the gold mine must be reported.
The news of the prince's assassination cannot be concealed. This time there are many princes from aristocratic families. How could there be no casualties? The assassins will kill them all.
Even if Shangguan Liu took away a large number of assassins and the dead men arranged by the emperor appeared in time, some weak sons were still killed.
Fortunately, there were not many casualties. Three people were seriously injured and rescued, only two people died, and few were slightly injured.
The emperor received the news of the prince's assassination in the morning, and the story of the assassination in the afternoon. Shangguan's family and Zhou's family were fine, and looked at the dead two, silent for a moment. Fortunately, neither was the eldest son.
If Shangguan Liu and Zhou Mingrui die, the Shangguan family and Zhou family will have a deadly feud with the Wen family. Can be safe.
Because the prince was assassinated in Huizhou, the magistrate of Huizhou was about to be frightened to death, so he rushed to report to the emperor immediately.
The crown prince was assassinated and dared not hide it. With the urgent order from the Huizhou prefect, everyone in the capital knew that the crown prince had been assassinated.
One day later, in the early court, the emperor's eyes were serious, "This is the urgent report of the prefect of Huizhou. Who do you think the crown prince was assassinated by?"
Mrs. Wen was the first to know about the assassination of the prince. He felt that many people were looking at him, and two of them stared at him with hatred. Mrs. Wen was also bitter. If he had known earlier, he would not have let Wen Xu go. It didn't work either.
Traveling with the prince meant both danger and opportunity. If the prince's whereabouts had not been exposed by Wen Xin, the Wen family would not be counted as dead, but now they are all staring at the Wen family with hatred.
Zhou Shuren was anxious, he had been hiding the news, now that the magistrate of Huizhou had entered the capital, the emperor didn't want to hide it, the capital would know the prince's assassination today.
All the ministers expressed their opinions one after another, some talking about the remnants of the previous dynasty, some talking about the aristocratic families in the south, and some talking about grassland ambitions, etc. There were all kinds of conjectures.
Some even looked at Mr. Liu without saying anything.
This can scare Mrs. Liu who is watching Wen's drama to death, how stupid the Liu family would do it at this time, the queen has two sons, now is not the time to do it at all.
