Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 176 All Thoughts (For Subscription)
Concubine Rong said with a cold face: "You think the official family doesn't know? But now that the official family is in poor health, and there are bandits everywhere in Jiangnan, at this time, the official family will not replace King Yong at all because of this matter."

"Is this the case? Sister, she..." Rong Xian looked aggrieved.

"What else can we do? When King Yong ascends the throne, how much face will I, the former emperor's concubine, have in front of him? It's hard to say whether you, the deputy commander of the front department, can continue to work. For the sake of the Rong family, This matter can only be tolerated. I asked the official family for a favor to leave the palace this time. Firstly, I came to see Feiyan, and secondly, I was afraid that you would be impulsive and bring the Rong family into eternal disaster." Concubine Rong said.

She is also very unwilling, but what can she do if she is unwilling?

After all, she was just a concubine. To ordinary people, she would just be a concubine.

The reason why he has the dignity he has now is because he is favored by officials.

Now the officials obviously don't want to pursue the matter, and she can't do anything to King Yong.

"I... oh!"

Rong Xian sighed in frustration and said, "What about my sister?"

"You take good care of her and don't let her do anything. After the matter subsides after a while, choose an ordinary family far away for her to marry. Then give her more dowry, and she will be rich all her life. ." Concubine Rong said after being silent for a while.

"I know." Even though Rong Xian wanted to kill King Yong's family, he could only endure it now.

……

Prince Yan's Mansion, main hall
King Yan looked at his son and laughed at himself: "Haha, King Yong is an idiot. Even before the official family canonized him as the prince, he dares to attack the official's favorite concubine's sister. It's really ridiculous for his father to lose to such an idiot. .”

"Father, this moment is the same as that moment. King Yong is attacking Rong Feiyan, and the official family may reconsider the choice of crown prince." Zhao Wuji, the eldest son of Prince Yan, said.

"I have already considered this. It is unlikely." King Yan shook his head and said.

"Why? When King Yong attacked Rong Feiyan, he didn't take the official family seriously at all. Can the official family tolerate it?" Zhao Wuji asked doubtfully.

"If King Yong attacks the Queen's relatives, the officials will definitely not be able to bear it. Concubine Rong is just a favorite concubine, and it is impossible for the officials to go to war for her. There are too many people supporting King Yong now. Even if the officials have this intention, Those people are afraid that I will settle accounts in the future, so they will not agree. The official family does not have much time left, and will not take the risk of shaking the country and the country by changing the candidate for the crown prince." King Yan said calmly.

"Then are we really going to launch a mutiny?" Zhao Wuji was still a little worried about launching a mutiny.

"Haha, although King Yong and I are brothers, he is the most ruthless emperor. If he ascends the throne, he will definitely kill all our people. We have no way out, so we can only do this. But that idiot King Yong, move Rong Feiyan gave us the opportunity to win over Rong Xian. Rong Xian controls one-third of the Forbidden Army, plus the Forbidden Army generals we have won over, once we win over Rong Xian, most of the Forbidden Army will be in our hands. In addition, the Five Cities Military and Horse Department is basically under our control, and the possibility of success is extremely high. There is nothing to be afraid of." King Yan said calmly.

"But there are still 40 soldiers and horses in the western suburbs camp." Zhao Wuji said solemnly.

"Haha, I have to say that the rules set by Emperor Taizu are very good. No one can mobilize the troops and horses in the western suburbs camp without an imperial edict. As long as we quickly control the palace and control the official family. Without an imperial edict, the western suburbs will be destroyed. Not even a single soldier can get out of the camp." King Yan said with a smile.

For the generals in the western suburbs camp, even if they knew there was a problem in Bianjing City, they would not dare to lead their troops out of the camp without an edict.

Because even if they succeed in rescuing the driver, who knows if the officials will blame them for it.

On the contrary, if they did not save him, even if King Yan did not succeed, the officials would have no reason to blame them.

If King Yan succeeded, it would be even simpler. In order to appease them, King Yan would not only not touch them, but also reward them generously.

Therefore, King Yan did not worry about the soldiers and horses in the western suburbs camp at all.

"Father, should we send someone to contact Rongxian now?" Zhao Wuji asked.

"Haha." King Yan waved his hand with a smile and said, "There is no hurry for now, rebellion is a capital crime. Although Rong Feiyan's reputation is tarnished, he is not dead after all. Rong Xian may not choose to cooperate with us because of this."

"The officials want to cover up this matter, but no one dares to talk about it at the moment. In a few days, we will find more storytellers and compile a story about Rong Feiyan's abduction on North Road, so that the matter will spread throughout the world in a short time. Bianjing. I don't believe that Rong Feiyan can still have the nerve to live." King Yan sneered.

Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "It's my father's foresight. The three Rong siblings depend on each other and have deep feelings. If Rong Feiyan dies, Rong Xian will definitely agree to cooperate with us in order to avenge him."

"I'm actually not worried about being a father here in Bianjing. At present, I can't say that I'm very sure that I can succeed. It's still [-]% to [-]% certain. What I'm more worried about is the clans not far from Bianjing. The children of those clans, It is impossible not to have ideas about the throne. Originally, they had no chance, but we gave them a chance by launching a mutiny. At that time, they will definitely lead troops in the name of counterinsurgency. At that time, we did not fully control the situation. If we were grouped together But attacking them is the big trouble." King Yan said with a solemn expression.

"What do you mean, father?" Zhao Wuji asked.

"There are countless pairs of eyes staring at us outside right now, so it's inconvenient to do anything. Send someone to pass a secret letter to your grandfather, asking him to send someone to monitor the clans near Bianjing, and kill all of them before we take action. It's settled." King Yan said harshly.

"Yes." Zhao Wuji responded.

……

"My lord, Zhang An is outside asking for an audience." Chunhua reported.

"Let him come in. You all can go down. No one is allowed to come in without my permission." Yuan Wenshao said.

"Yes."

Chunhua bowed and led the maids in the room out.

After a while, Zhang An walked in, bowed and said, "Master, the information about the owner of the house has been found out clearly."

"Say." Yuan Wenshao said.

"The owner of that house is Zheng Shiqian."

"Is it Zheng Shiqian, who is known as the number one merchant in the north?" Yuan Wenshao asked in surprise.

Zheng Shiqian was a wealthy businessman, known as the number one merchant in the north, and was very famous.

Some people even rumored that he was as rich as anyone in the country. However, just such a man died in the river about eight or nine years ago when the boat leaked and sank on his way back to Bianjing.

There are many doubts about Zheng Shiqian's death.

The boat he was riding in was very tall, and a boat like this would not leak easily.

Moreover, the bottom of the boat has two layers, so even if it leaks, it will not sink quickly. The sailors can scoop the water out and sail the boat to the shore in time.

After all, although the canal is wide, it is not a sea, and it does not take much time to reach the shore.

Even if the boat leaks badly and cannot reach the shore in time, there are so many guards and sailors accompanying him that there is always a way to protect him and escape.

However, not only Zheng Shiqian was not spared, but also none of the sailors on the ship escaped.

It was like a ship sank without warning, and the people on the ship had no time to react.

But it’s unlikely no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, there were many versions about Zheng Shiqian's death at that time.

Some people say that because the Zheng family wanted to seize property, they bribed someone to drug them and cut through the ship to make it look like it was sinking.

Some people say that they encountered water bandits and were killed by them.

Some people even say that Zheng Shiqiu suffered retribution because he was rich and unkind.

Anyway, no one saw Zheng Shiqiu when the ship sank. It was more than half a month before his body was discovered.

At that time, the corpses were already in a state of decomposition, and Wu Zuo didn't find anything wrong with the corpses. They seemed to have been drowned.The government searched for a long time but did not find any clues. Finally, it was concluded that the cabin leaked and the people on board were drowned before they could escape in time, so the case was closed.

"Yes, that's him." Zhang An nodded.

"No, I've heard before that after Zheng Shiqian's death, his family property was divided among his clan members. His previous house was not the same house as yesterday." Yuan Wenshao said doubtfully.

His house occupies a very large area, and Zheng Shiqian has no sons.After his death, the Zheng family fought for the property, and the house was finally inherited by one of his cousins.

A few years ago, his cousin owed a lot of gambling debts, and finally sold the house to pay off the debts.

Yuan Wenshao has heard of some of these.

Although the house where the thief hid last night was not small, it was still much smaller than Zheng Shiqian's house, and the location was also wrong.

"That house was the house where Zheng Shiqian housed his illegitimate wife. Little is known about it. After Zheng Shiqian's death, his maiden brought his children to inherit Zheng Shiqian's family business. Only then did outsiders know that Zheng Shiqian actually had an illegitimate son."

"However, not long after, Zheng Shiqian's son died mysteriously. At that time, the doors and windows were closed from the inside, and there was no trace on the roof. He died just like that."

"After Zheng Shiqian's son died, the man in the outer chamber also died the next day. The government recorded it as suicide at that time."

"Since then, the house has been haunted. The Zheng family who later inherited the house wanted to buy the house, but many people knew that the house was haunted, so no one bought it. The Zheng family simply moved in by themselves. I wanted to use this to prove that there was nothing wrong with the house. In the end, he died too. Since then, the house has been deserted."

Zhang An told the news in detail.

After hearing this, Yuan Wenshao frowned slightly.

Zheng Shiqian had no son, so it was normal for him to dig a secret room and hide so much gold and silver in the house where his illegitimate son lived.

But Yuan Wenshao didn't believe in the so-called haunting.

Although he is a time traveler, he still does not believe in any ghosts and gods in the world.

Judging from the total signs, the so-called ghost just doesn't want people to live in that house.

The purpose is probably the batch of gold and silver jewelry hidden by Zheng Shiqian, or the golden pearl known as the Dragon Pearl.

The letter he got in the secret room before contained information about the pearl.

This pearl was accidentally obtained by the emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty before the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, when the heroes were divided.

At this time, people had never seen pearls as big as a child's fist, and they were golden.

The emperor of the Later Tang Dynasty regarded this golden pearl as a dragon ball and collected it as a treasure.

Worried about leaking it and causing other countries to covet it, it has never been leaked.

The ancestors of the Zheng family were the commanders of the imperial army of the Later Tang emperor. They accidentally learned of the existence of the Dragon Ball, and when the Later Tang Dynasty fell, they took advantage of the chaos and stole the Dragon Ball.

The letter also said that dragon beads can nourish dragon energy and so on.

Yuan Wenshao left the dragon beads and the letter, not because he believed that the dragon beads could nourish dragon energy.

I just felt that something was not simple at that time, so I acted subconsciously.

After listening to the information Zhang An investigated, Yuan Wenshao suspected that Zheng Shiqian's death was probably because someone else knew about the Dragon Ball.

Yuan Wenshao now regrets leaving the dragon ball and the letter.

Maybe the person behind it hasn't given up yet, and has been looking for the whereabouts of the dragon ball.

Now that the gold and silver jewelry hidden by Zheng Shiqian has been discovered, the people behind the scenes will definitely ask if there are dragon beads among them.

If the other party found out that there were no Dragon Balls in those treasures, they might doubt themselves as the first person to discover the secret room.

Yuan Wenshao didn't even know who was behind the scenes. If someone was interested in him, who knew what they would do.

However, it is unrealistic to hand over the Dragon Ball now.

He doesn't believe the nonsense that dragon beads can nourish dragon energy. Who knows if the officials believe it?
If he handed it over, the officials might think that he deliberately hid the dragon ball because he wanted to become emperor or something, which would make it even more troublesome.

"Master, do you want to continue the investigation?" Zhang An asked.

"No, this matter ends here. You are not allowed to inquire about any information related to Zheng Shiqian." Yuan Wenshao said.

If the person behind the scenes has not given up on searching for the Dragon Ball, he sent someone to investigate the news about Zheng Shiqian, which is equivalent to telling the other party that the Dragon Ball is in his hands.

"By the way, send the secret guards to Yuzhou. If the Yuzhou regiment training envoy Zhao Zong's family is in danger, we must save them at any cost." Yuan Wenshao said.

Now that King Yong has taken action against Rong Feiyan, it is only a short time before King Yan rebels.

Yuan Wenshao didn't know when exactly King Yan would take action against Zhao Zong's family, so he could only send someone first.

"Master, how about I take the people there myself?" Zhang An suggested.

Yuan Wenshao was injured and he blamed himself very much, feeling that he had failed to protect Yuan Wenshao.

Zhang An wanted to get rid of his merits, so he took the initiative to ask Yuan Wenshao for help.

"No."

Yuan Wenshao shook his head and said, "You are the person next to me. If you leave Beijing, you might be noticed."

"It was my poor thinking that almost ruined the master's plan." Zhang An said with shame.

"Okay, I know you're blaming yourself for my injury. I've already told you that I don't blame you for this, so don't think too much about it. Just do what I told you to do." Yuan Wenshao waved his hand.

"Yes! If the Lord has no other instructions, I will leave first." Zhang An said.

"Go." Yuan Wenshao nodded.

Not long after Zhang An left, Hua Lan came back with Sister Wen.

"Dad, how are you?" Sister Wen ran to the bed as soon as she entered the room and asked with concern.

"Haha, daddy is fine. I can play with you in two days." Yuan Wenshao said with a smile.

"Sister Wen, be good, you go back to your yard to play first, and Mom will talk to your father about something." Hua Lan said with a smile.

"Okay." Sister Wen was a little unhappy, but she didn't play nice.
