Mrs. Prime Minister

Chapter 254
"Zhao Qian, colluding with the crown prince for rebellion, do you think these evidences are enough for you to destroy the nine clans!" Feng Lanjin's voice sank sharply, as cold as a knife, "Tell the truth, where is the gold mine!"

Zhao Qian's complexion changed, his body collapsed tightly, and his back straightened into a sharp arc, as if he could be broken in half with just a slight bend.

Finally, his eyes dimmed, and he lowered his eyelids lightly, "I said that I don't know anything, if Xiangye doesn't believe me, there's nothing I can do about it."

The capital is different from the south of the Yangtze River. There are more plains in the north, but there are many mountains in the south of the Yangtze River. Jingshan is the most famous mountain in the south of the Yangtze River. It stretches for hundreds of miles. A gold mine is really not a big deal compared to the mountains of hundreds of miles. Big, it is impossible to find the past bit by bit without spending a little effort.

It is impossible to find a place within three to five years.

Feng Lanjin doesn't have the extra time to waste on it now.

So I had to ask Zhao Qian.

"I really don't know whether there is a gold mine or not. If there is a gold mine in the south of the Yangtze River, it has been reported to the imperial court, and the lower officials dare not dig it privately." His tone was light, and there was a sense of breaking the pot.

Feng Lanjin didn't care, he pushed the wheelchair and took the evidence of Zhao Qian's and Jun Aozhi's correspondence from Mo Xuan's hand, with a sneer on his lips.

"Zhao Qian, don't you think that if you don't admit it, you will let your family go without sacrificing a crown prince?"

Zhao Qian trembled and didn't speak for a while.

The sneer on Feng Lanjin's lips became more and more obvious.

"Zhao Qian, how long have you been working with the prince?" He smiled slightly, not intending to ask Zhao Qian to answer, and continued, "It's been two years at least, you think you understand Jun Aozhi how many?"

Zhao Qian pursed his lips firmly, with a stubborn face, but a trace of fear flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"Since you don't know, let me tell you!" Feng Lanjin's voice paused slightly, and said in a very objective and indifferent tone, "He is a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal. I have used ten years of hard work to get along with him, influence him, and for the purpose of not being able to see him...kill all the people who are not good for him overnight!"

Feng Lanjin watched Zhao Qian's face change slightly, and smiled indifferently, "You think Jun Aozhi will let your family go after you die? It's a big mistake!" He lightly tapped on the wheelchair He snorted coldly, "Not only will he not help you arrange your family to take care of your aftermath, but he will wait until the matter slowly fades from the eyes of the world, and after everyone has forgotten about it, he will secretly treat you All those in the know will attack. At that time, your relatives will be the first to 'die of illness and naturally', believe it or not?" His firm eyes, especially the strong confidence in his eyes, made Zhao Qian's heart tremble, and he had no choice but to Believe what Feng Lanjin said.

"I..." His eyes were complicated, and he looked at Feng Lanjin in surprise.

Feng Lanjin didn't rush, but looked at him calmly.

The breathing in the room gradually became heavy and oppressive.

Zhao Qian raised his head and stared at Feng Lanjin firmly, his eyes were filled with blood.

"I don't trust you! Could it be that if I help you betray the prince, you can save my family?" He said in disbelief, but his eyes stared at Feng Lanjin hopefully.

Feng Lanjin stood still and said flatly, "I can't!"

The faint hope in Zhao Qian's eyes was also swallowed by the darkness.

"...But I will try my best..." He was bathed in the cold moonlight and his tone was very cold, "...As long as there is no edge to the gold mine, I will try my best to protect them!"

He exhaled lightly.

His eyes gradually became firm.

If Feng Lanjin agreed straight away that he would take care of his family's life, he would really not be at ease.

After getting along with Feng Lanjin for half a month, he has figured out some of Feng Lanjin's temperament, and knows that he is a man of one word and one word. Since he promised to protect his family with his best, he will definitely not stand idly by.

During the two years of cooperation with Jun Aozhi, he could also feel that he was seeking skin from a tiger. Jun Aozhi didn't trust him at all, and sent Uncle Hao to supervise him by his side. As long as he showed any hesitation, today He has already become a pile of bones.

Not only Jun Aozhi didn't believe him, but he was sincerely working for him. He wanted to retreat a long time ago, but because Uncle Hao had been staring at him all the time, and his movements were not too big, so until now All cited but not issued.That's why he didn't burn the letter paper after communicating with Jun Aozhi, but kept it.

In the final analysis, both of them were on guard against each other, and he was also holding back. If Jun Aozhi caught him unjustly one day, he would show the evidence and die with him!
He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking of his only son who had died, his heart ached, and he became more determined to protect his family.Taking a deep breath, he stared straight at Feng Lanjin, without dodging again.

"What do you need me to do?!"

"First, take me to the gold mine in Jingshan and tell me where the gold you mined is hidden now." Feng Lanjin seemed to have expected that Zhao Qian would compromise, and said calmly, " Second, come to Beijing with me to prove Jun Aozhi's crime!"

"...I understand!" He lowered his eyelids, glanced at the moonlight as cold as water, and finally revealed a little regret in his eyes, his eye sockets gradually became wet, and said in a choked voice, "...I still have A small request."

"You should know that you are not qualified to make demands with me!" Feng Lanjin's voice was cold.

"I know!" Zhao Qian smiled wryly, "Just think of it as a grassroots begging the lord, begging the lord to bury He'er..." Mentioning Zhao He, Zhao Qian's eyes finally dimmed inch by inch, "After all, it's me It doesn't matter if you teach a son, he will become a dude, but after all, it is my son who has been in my hands for more than 20 years, and Xiangye should take pity... pity me, a father who is about to die..."

No matter how things changed, his death was inevitable.

Feng Lanjin was silent for a long while, then suddenly remembered the child that was still in Yunqing's womb, and his heart softened, "...Okay!"

Zhao Qian showed Feng Lanjin the way, and Feng Lanjin and Jiang Mo immediately took the soldiers to the gold mine.

The gold mine was found very smoothly, and the young man who had been missing for a long time was also found, but the gold that was mined out worth a million taels disappeared.

Feng Lanjin and Jiang Mo's faces sank like water, and they immediately thought of someone.

Uncle Hao!

He is Jun Aozhi's man, so he must have made second-hand preparations when Zhao Qian went to assassinate them, hiding the gold!
Feng Lanjin's face remained calm, but Jiang Mo's expression was serious.

"They carry gold, so they can't go too far..." Feng Lanjin analyzed in a low voice, "Master Jiang, don't worry."

"Master, you should seal the entrance and exit of the city gate as soon as possible. As you said, their gold target is too big to leave the city so quickly. We can only seal the city, and then send troops to search for it little by little. .”

Jiang Mo was still worried, after all, Jiangnan was not a place they were familiar with, and it might not be easy to search it out.

"Yeah." Feng Lanjin nodded, the stern moonlight shrouded him, and his face looked a little pale, he said lightly, "Don't worry, I'll arrange it freely."

Jiangnan is not Feng Lanjin's territory but Feng Juechen's. He has enough people to arrange for him.

Although she returned in vain, Feng Lanjin was not too worried.

As long as the person does not leave the south of the Yangtze River, he has a perfect way to find the person and the gold.

The sky has gradually turned pale, and the low chirping of locusts is all around my ears.

Feng Lanjin and Jiang Mo led a group of officers and soldiers to close the gold mine, and rescued all the workers who were successively arrested by Zhao Qian to do hard work.

The workers suffer inhuman torture every day, and they have long despaired of life. Now that they know that they can walk out of the mountains, some people are already moved to tears...

Feng Lanjin felt something in his heart. Seeing those people running down the mountain regardless of everything, looking for his family members, parents, wife and children, his heart became extraordinarily soft.

After explaining a few words in a hurry, he and Jiang Mo led the people back to the Governor's Mansion quickly.

Yun Qing was probably extremely tired, but she still slept soundly. Feng Lanjin looked at her peaceful sleeping face, took a simple bath and went to bed, wrapped her arms around her waist, and protected her lower abdomen, Passing one hand under her neck, he held her tightly in his arms.

Drowsiness hit, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

There was a faint moonlight shining into the room, shining through the thin veil on the bodies of the two sleeping in each other's arms, and the cold moonlight seemed gentle...
