Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 656

The atmosphere in the entire Yinyi Hall was unprecedentedly oppressive, and the little eunuchs didn't know who made the emperor so angry.

Even Eunuch Yao didn't know, because it was a secret book, and it was always sealed when it was sent to the emperor. He didn't know who handed it to him, nor what was written in it.

He didn't know who the person who provoked the emperor's anger was.

In Chen Guogong's mansion, the maid is carefully taking out all the treasures from the box, her eyes seem to be dazzled.

Sitting upright, Hou Junji looked fascinated by the treasures in front of him, who doesn't like rare treasures?

Behind Hou Junji, there were two people who looked like young women with their skirts unbuttoned, and in front of them were two maidservants who were holding wine glasses, and milky white liquid dripped into the wine glasses.

The wine, which was originally clear, has turned milky white.

The maid handed the wine glass to Hou Junji. Hou Junji took the wine glass, drank it down, and said with a smile, "This Gaochang country is located on the only way to trade in the Western Regions. There are many rare treasures, as expected!"

Mrs. Hou still had a charming charm, she turned a blind eye to milk wine, just stared at such rare treasures, not only did not look happy on her face, but rather frowned.

"Isn't the master bringing back too many rare treasures?" Mrs. Hou asked with a frown. If it was just a few boxes or even treasures, he wouldn't say anything, but it's really treasures worth more than a dozen cars.

Hou Junji took another glass of fine wine and drank it down, and said with a smile, "Is there a lot? Not much at all! This is a battle to destroy the country, a battle that will be recorded in history forever, and a battle of glory! It's a good opportunity, our Hou family's foundation is shallow, and this old man's qualifications are low, if we don't seize this opportunity, when will we be able to live a rich life?"

"Master, our family is already the Duke's mansion, isn't it rich enough?" Mrs. Hou sighed softly.

Hou Junji's face changed when he heard this, and he snorted, "Guogong mansion? Guogong's mansion is also divided into ranks! Can Chen Guogong compare with Wei Guogong? Can he compare with Zhao Guogong? Can he compare with British Gong? Can Chen Guogong's mansion be ranked first in Chang'an?"

"Don't talk about others, just talk about Su Cheng, has he been to our Chen Guogong's mansion once? This old man also came from Qin Wang's mansion, and this old man is a direct confidant of today's family!"

Mrs. Hou said worriedly: "But Master has concealed so many rare and rare treasures, aren't you afraid that His Majesty will blame Master if he finds out?"

Hou Junji laughed and said: "I'm not stupid, I'm not eating alone, and I didn't treat the soldiers who went to war badly. Who would go to Gaofa to fail me?"

"Also, what His Majesty values ​​most is not the treasure, but the seeds of the white jellyfish and the inspection of the muskets on the battlefield. From the beginning to the end, he never mentioned the matter of treasures. His Majesty has always talked about the seeds of the white jellyfish!"

"So His Majesty doesn't care, Madam don't have to worry!"

Hou Junji was very confident, thinking that he didn't treat the soldiers badly, and he silenced everyone by giving them more property than usual, but he forgot that there is a saying in this world.

Do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity.

In a tavern, two people sat facing each other.

"You are the general of this expedition? You said you have something important to disclose to the old man? What is it?" Wei Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Can Master Wei promise to keep the secret for me? I also heard that Master Wei is upright, upright and trustworthy, that's why the last general asked to meet Master Wei." A man with the appearance of a general lowered his head and said in a deep voice.

"The old man guarantees with his reputation that he will keep it secret for you, as long as what you say is true!" Wei Zheng said solemnly.

"I promise that what I said is not adulterated!" the general said in a deep voice.

"So, what is the big thing you're talking about?" Wei Zheng asked.

"I am a Zhonglang general of the frontier army. I am honored to participate in this expedition. Everything I said is related to the general manager Hou Junji. The first thing is to be greedy!" The general said in a deep voice, he was just giving a brief introduction He glanced at himself, but didn't say his first and last name.

Greed for ink?Wei Zheng couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this, it's not uncommon to be greedy for ink, even the emperor would turn a blind eye to it, especially when he went abroad to collect property and the army would distribute part of it. This is already a rule in the army, he Wei Zheng is not a person who does not understand military affairs.

Although he is upright, he is not pedantic, and he will not make a fuss about it.Because he knew that it was useless at all, and would instead arouse the hostility of all generals.

Even the emperor would think that he is troublesome, and this matter is not without benefits, at least the soldiers who can fight fiercely.

Wei Zheng frowned slightly and said, "Is it just greed for ink?"

The general said in a low voice: "I know this is the rule in the army, but this time it is different. Chief Hou transported more than half of the treasures of Gaochang Kingdom to his own mansion!"

Wei Zheng couldn't help being slightly taken aback when he heard this, and said in a broken voice, "More than half of the treasures in the entire Gaochang Kingdom?"

He wondered if he heard it wrong. He also knew that Hou Junji lived a luxurious life and loved money, but he never thought that Hou Junji would be so courageous!

The main mission of this expedition was to obtain the seeds of the white jasmine, so everyone's attention was on the white jasmine, and they didn't pay much attention to how many treasures the army had seized in Gaochang.

Maybe it's because the Tang Dynasty is already rich enough, with a vast land and abundant resources, how can it value the little Gaochang country?

However, Gaochang Kingdom is not small, no matter how you say it is a kingdom, and it is located in the place where business in the Western Regions must pass through. Wei Zheng couldn't imagine how much wealth it would be if Hou Junji hid most of the treasures privately!

The general nodded without hesitation and said: "Yes, almost all the rare and rare treasures in the palace have been hidden by Chief Hou, and only some large and inconspicuous things are registered in the register."

Wei Zheng couldn't help frowning slightly, and the expression on his face became a lot more serious. If Hou Junji was really greedy for so much treasure, then Hou Junji was indeed greedy and committed a crime.

The general continued: "King Gaochang had already been captured at that time, but in the end he was tortured to death by Chief Hou!"

Wei Zheng couldn't help but frown again when he heard this. Throughout the ages, very few people would blatantly kill the king of a country, even the king of a subjugated country.

Even though Jieli Khan once brought great shame and humiliation to the emperor, after the collapse of the Eastern Turks, Jieli Khan lived well in Chang'an and became an outstanding dancer.

Unexpectedly, Hou Junji brutally tortured King Gaochang to death!

The general continued: "Moreover, Chief Hou also insulted King Gaochang's harem!"

Wei Zheng suddenly changed his face when he heard this, and asked in a low voice, "What did you say? Hou Junji insulted King Gaochang's harem?"

The general nodded and said: "Yes, several concubines of Gaochang were humiliated to death by Chief Hou, and the maids in the palace were even more so. Even the pregnant Queen Gaochang committed suicide because of the humiliation."
