Chapter 209 Zhenbei Palace
"Huh?" Mu Zhixu was surprised.

"Although he is the son of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, he has an open-minded and unruly personality. He yearns for life in the Jianghu most. I made friends with him three years ago." Gu Lin talked about the process of their acquaintance.

Gu Lin was only 14 years old at that time, but his martial arts was close to that of a first-class master.

This is rare in the rivers and lakes, and challenges are often encountered.

It was at that time that the prince of Zhenbei came to the door. When the two competed in martial arts, the prince of Zhenbei was better.

But he felt like he had lost.

Because he is five years older than Gu Lin.

Gu Lin admired his uninhibited personality, and the two hit it off.

"If it wasn't for the fact that he was the only male in the Zhenbei Palace, he would have gone to the rivers and lakes a long time ago." Mentioning his best friend, Gu Lin laughed.

"Is there no other male in the Zhenbei Palace besides him?" Mu Zhixu was surprised.

"Yes, King Zhenbei only has one wife, not even a concubine." Gu Lin wondered why Mu Zhixu was curious about this.

"His wife is Song Xianning?" She remembered what Shang Yuchuan had said to her.

"Well, but before Song Xianning, King Zhenbei had another wife, who was his first wife, and Xia Houzheng, the son of King Zhenbei, was born to his first wife." Gu Lin told the news he knew.

"That's right." Mu Zhixu frowned slightly. If Xia Houzheng was five years older than Gu Lin, it would be wrong to count the time when Song Xianning married King Zhenbei.

"What's wrong?" Gu Lin noticed that Mu Zhixu's expression was not right.

"Do you remember Shang Yuchuan I told you about? He said that I might have something to do with Shang Wantang." Mu Zhixu took a deep breath.

"Remember, you mean..."

"That's right. At the beginning, Song Xianning, Su Qingwu, and Shang Lungtang were confidants and close friends, but the endings of the three of them were very different. Why did Su Qingwu become the concubine of King Zhenbei? Why did Shang Lentang leave the capital?" ? And if I am Shang Lungtang's daughter, then who is my father?" Mu Zhixu felt more and more confused.

"Besides, if you say that King Zhenbei only has one wife, then he is not a lustful person. There should be other secrets about Su Qingwu back then."

She had a ridiculous idea in her mind, and even felt that she had something to do with King Zhenbei.

"Few people know what happened back then." Gu Lin pondered for a while, "Ah Xu, leave it to me to investigate."

"But it should be easy to check after entering Beijing."

Mu Zhixu knew that Gu Lin must have his own intelligence network, because he knew all the prefectures and families too well.

"Don't worry, check it out slowly." She sighed.

"Looking at it now, I should most likely be Shang Lungtang's daughter, so... what happened to me and my parents? They picked me up?" This is also a place of doubt.

"Always find out."

"Ah."

"Let me tell you about the Zhenbei Palace?" Gu Lin thought for a while and said.

"it is good."

"The people in the Zhenbei Palace are simple. The Zhenbei King only has two wives, the original wife plus the second concubine, and no concubine. He once had a second wife, Su Qingwu. He only has one son and one daughter. The son is Xia Houzheng, and the daughter is Xia Houqing. Living in the capital for most of the year, especially after Jiji, the Holy Majesty did not let her leave, saying that he would pick a husband for her in the capital."

"Xia Houqing inherited her mother's talent. She is known as the most talented woman in the capital, the female Zhuge. Princess Zhenbei is low-key and does not often attend banquets. Even if she returns to Beijing, she will only attend banquets held by the palace. Other than that... I seldom even go back to my mother’s house.”

As Gu Lin said, she felt that something was wrong, Princess Zhenbei wouldn't go back to her mother's house?
He didn't think it was important when he checked it before, and he didn't check it carefully. It seems that there are still many things in it.

"I have a hunch that Princess Zhenbei is the key." Mu Zhixu said.

"In short, I'm talking about everything after checking, but be careful when checking Shang Lengtang, and King Xuan must not leak the news."

"I see."

After saying this, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

"By the way..." After a while, Gu Lin suddenly said, "I can let Shang Yuchuan handle the matter of building a winery in Beijiang."

"Why?" Mu Zhixu asked subconsciously.

"Shang Yuchuan certainly didn't tell you that the merchant's former base camp was in northern Xinjiang, and the merchant moved to the capital later." Even if the merchant's lineage was wiped out, the merchant is not as good as before, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Moreover, Gu Lin had some doubts that the merchant's treasure was in northern Xinjiang.

Mu Zhixu squinted his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a meaningful arc, "It's possible."

Shang Yuchuan, who was far away in Qing'an Mansion, did not know that someone had planned the route for him.

"By the way, where are Chu Huaiyan and Shi Yunqi? What are they looking for you for?" Mu Zhixu took a sip of the cold tea.

The faint bitterness smeared in the mouth, and it didn't take long for it to turn into sweetness.

"It's also about Beijiang, and they are also eyeing the fat in Beijiang." Gu Lin chuckled, "Because of the high-yield grain you produced."

"Huh? Because of the grain? Chu Huaiyan is really restless."

"Without a long-term vision, how can we control all the business money of the Zhennan Palace? Even though he donated two-thirds of the silver to the emperor, he also hid a lot." Gu Lin said meaningfully.

"This time Shen Qinghe wiped out Zhennan King in one fell swoop and regained southern Xinjiang. He seized a lot of silver and various precious ancient books, antiques, calligraphy and paintings. Chu Huaiyan is not so stupid."

"Isn't he afraid of the emperor's suspicion?"

"So what about doubts? He doesn't have much property on the surface. Besides, for the sake of his donation of silver and defense plans, the Holy One will turn a blind eye to the little silver in his hands." .”

"Your Majesty is indeed a Mingjun." Mu Zhixu said with a smile.

Gu Lin smiled and said nothing.

"So did you work with them?"

"Well, don't miss the benefits of being delivered to your door." Chu Huaiyan knew that he had information in his hands, so it was not surprising to find him.

What surprised Gu Lin was that Chu Huaiyan knew of his whereabouts.

It seems that Chu Huaiyan still has a force in his hands.

"That's right, don't do it for nothing." Mu Zhixu agreed.

Having got what they wanted, Chu Huaiyan and Shi Yunqi left quickly.

The Qian brothers and sisters did not show up soon.

Mu Zhixu is not in a hurry, she is dealing with family affairs.

"Go and call Yang Xiucai. If he doesn't arrive within a quarter of an hour, let him collect Yang Xian's body." Mu Zhixu looked at the embarrassed Yang Xian indifferently.

In just one day, Yang Xian made a moth.

Mu Zhihe's expression turned ugly, "Zhixu, we can't let him go."

This man stopped her on the road, and what he said was all about seduction and provocation, which was extremely disgusting.

"Well, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation." If you dare to bully her cousin, you will die.

"Do you want to go to rest?"

"No, I want to see it with my own eyes." Mu Zhihe showed disgust.

If she didn't know martial arts, she would be in trouble today, and Yang Xianqi's heart would be punishable.

Not only will her reputation be ruined, but her brothers and sisters in the family will also be hurt.

"Row."

 Make up one more.
