Jinghong Tower

The more Mrs. Zuo talked, the sadder she became. Her tears seemed to be free of charge. A small handkerchief was wet from crying, and the maid quickly handed over another one.

The old lady Zuo didn't just shed tears. She cried and scolded: "My old woman's life is so hard. She made her grandson grow up by pooping and peeing. She finally made money, but she ruined my coffin." I spent it all, my coffin book, how can I live? Now I meet the Ming Lord, I want to get the money out but I can't. Why am I so useless? God, I have no shame in living. "

Everyone present

This kind of scene has been seen by everyone present except the golden King Jin.

But who are those people?

The old woman in the country, the shrew in the market.

But this old lady seems to have nothing to do with these two types of people.

Some people began to regret. If he had known this, he should not have come. He asked the old lady at home to come, and she might cry more than the old lady Zuo. Regret, tens of thousands of taels of silver were just wasted.

What if they don't want to support King Jin?

Nor is it.

The main reason is that the world is about to be in chaos now. The one who wants money is the King of Jin. In a few days, the King of Jin will be beaten away. The Zhending Mansion will change owners. Their family property is here. How can they still be here? Are you going to run with King Jin? If there is a liquidation, they will have to go around without food.

Besides, businessmen are very profit-oriented. In the past, when the prefect asked for silver, they were willing to give it, and they could really see the benefits. But now that the King of Jin wants money, they can't see anything.

At least now, King Jin can't give them anything except pie.

If they could be like Mrs. Zuo and settle this matter with 1,800 yuan, that would be a dream for them.

But it's too late, there is no preparation, it's too late to say anything now, they can afford tens of thousands of taels of silver, but they are afraid that this is just the beginning, there will be a second time after the first time, and there will be no end.

The merchants had seen the old woman behave in a bad way many times, but this was the first time that King Jin had seen her.

King Jin was shocked at the time. He had no choice but to do so. There was nothing like this in the circle he grew up in.

The meeting ended when Mrs. Zuo cried until she fainted and then woke up.

In the end, each family delivered the promised silver, and Mrs. Zuo delivered a box of old-fashioned jewelry, including a jade bracelet with cracks.

Unexpectedly, King Jin was a little moved when he saw these jewelry. He asked someone to inquire about it, and the result of the inquiry surprised him. Although the old lady Zuo was indeed a farm girl in the countryside, she was She also has another identity, she is He Jinghong's maid!

Therefore, her grandson is qualified to be the shopkeeper of Jinghong Tower, and the previous owner, Miss He, sold Jinghong Tower to her.

Although He Jinghong was long gone, King Jin wanted to show more respect for He Jinghong if he wanted to be more orthodox than the one in the palace.

Although he had never seen the elegance of the Princess of Zhenguo, he had heard from his father that He Jinghong was both mother and sister to Taizu.

The main reason why the Empress Dowager was imprisoned for more than forty years was because she was disrespectful to He Jinghong.

My father also said that if He Jinghong was still in the court, the second child would not have the chair.

It was precisely for these reasons that when Miss He showed up, Feng Xueying wanted to express her closeness, and he agreed.

If He Jinghong was still alive, it might be a big trouble, but if her bones were probably turned into ashes, then she would be a legend and someone who was regarded as an elder by the descendants of Taizu.

Therefore, although King Jin accepted the box of jewelry from Mrs. Zuo, he went to Jinghong Tower in person and bowed in front of the golden plaque given by Taizu.

But when King Jin returned to the temporary office and heard the detailed news from Jinyang, King Jin slammed the cup in his hand to the ground. When he first heard the news that a gangster had entered Prince Jin's palace, he actually didn't pay much attention to it.

Although he brought all the ten thousand horses to the front line, there were two to three hundred guards in the palace. Even if a thief entered the palace, there would be no trouble.

At that time, he was busy launching an attack. When the news came, he changed his armor and flew on his horse.

After he entered the Zhending Mansion with great victory, he remembered the incident again and called people over for further questioning. Only then did he realize that the thieves were not just a few people at all, but many people. They robbed everything they saw and even looted his property. The most important thing is that a group of maids and women discovered the old princess in a secret passage.

King Jin's heart sank suddenly. Before his death, his father told him to let Cai Ying live like a mouse.

Because Cai Ying was alive, Ouyang Yun was willing to be used by their father and son.

He agreed and didn't care too much. It didn't matter if he had one more person in Prince Jin's palace. However, later, Cai Jie died and the Cai family would no longer pay attention to Cai Ying. So he was too lazy to act anymore and simply stayed in Xiuyuan. The stand-in was also silenced.

But just when he was about to forget Cai Ying, Cai Ying's secret was exposed, and in this way.

At this time, King Jin was not worried about his private treasury.

The private vault is so secret, how can it be easily found?

Besides, all the news he had received so far did not mention his private treasury. They only said that he had robbed many jade treasures from the palace, and even all the money from the guards and chamberlains.

This kind of action clearly shows that they are a group of bandits.

Combined with the previous arson in the military camp, King Jin had no doubt that this was done by the same group of people.

However, there is a traitor in the house, that's for sure.

King Jin never dreamed that his private treasury had been looted.

The guards and most of the chambermaids were on the west road and the middle road. Therefore, when He Ran had people emptying the private treasury, he purposely drove all the maids and women in the east road into the secret passage.

And the head chamberlain who was guiding the way had already taken advantage of the chaos and escaped.

Those who were still in the palace only saw the things that were openly thrown away. As for Prince Jin's private treasury, they had no idea where it was, let alone that it had been emptied out.

Even so, King Jin was still very angry.

Now is the critical moment for him to gain favor in front of aristocratic families and businessmen. He must not bear the reputation of being unfilial.

King Jin has never missed Feng Xueying as much as he does now.

If Feng Xueying was still here, he would not have to worry about this matter at all. Feng Xueying would immediately go to Jinyang to handle the matter and handle it properly without affecting his reputation.

At this moment, the King of Jin received the battle report, and the King of Kaizhou who was far away in Yudi raised an army!

That's right, King Zhou of Kaizhou also raised troops.

The reason why the King of Kaizhou raised the army was the same as that of the King of Jin, which was to drive the Min family out of the capital and return the dragon throne to the real descendants of the Zhou family!

The King of Jin was furious. He was Taizu's grandson and Prime Minister Zhou, but he was just a nephew, not even a cousin.

What does Zhou Xiang mean?
