The farmer has a mall

Chapter 589

Liu Zhenzhen is still hesitating whether she should go to Daliang with Gu Nanyan.

However, Liang Guo had already received Li Mi's letter of credence.

In the prime minister's mansion, Wei Hong sat at the desk in the study, looking at the direction of the candlelight, wondering what he was thinking.

After an unknown amount of time, the candle wick made a "crack" sound, which successfully pulled him back from his mind.

Wei Hong sighed, put down the crumpled letter paper in his hand, turned the wheelchair to the ancient shelf in the corner of the study, put his hand on one of the grids and pressed it hard.

The wooden partition was pressed down, making a clicking sound, and then the Bogu shelf moved slowly, revealing a dark room after a while.

The dark room is not too big, and there are four or five shelves that are almost the same as the outside. The shelves are filled with various treasures and jades, as well as scrolls and ancient books.

The door of the darkroom behind him was closed, and Wei Hong pushed the wheelchair to the end without looking at the priceless treasures.

There is a desk there, the desk is slightly higher, and there are various ledgers on it. Perhaps the wind came in from the opening and closing of the darkroom door, and the top page was opened.

The paper densely records when, where, and how much bribes a certain official received for what reason.

Wei Hong lowered his eyes, raised his slender fingers to close it casually, and then grabbed the Bogu shelf fixed on the ground with one hand, and pushed the table away with difficulty with the other hand.

Unexpectedly, there was another secret passage behind the desk.

The entrance to the secret passage is very short, even if Wei Hong is in a wheelchair, he needs to lower his head to enter.

Entering the secret passage, he breathed a sigh of relief to calm down the unsteady breath, and then pushed the wheelchair forward along the secret passage that only allowed one person to pass.

Probably because of the lack of air circulation, it was a bit stuffy inside, Wei Hong took a deep breath, and the dust was sucked into his lungs.

If it was a normal person, it would be nothing more than a sneeze at most, but Wei Hong coughed hastily, and hurriedly covered his mouth and nose with his hands as if afraid of being heard, trying to suppress the itching in his throat.

Two quarters of an hour later, the person in the wheelchair finally walked out of the narrow passage, and the eyes suddenly opened up, but it was a dark room.

He rang the bell hanging in the dark room, and the sound of the jingle bell was particularly ear-piercing.

After a while, there was the sound of the mechanism opening from the other side of the dark room, and the fifth prince Huangfuyi walked in.

He looked at Wei Hong in surprise: "Sir, why are you here?"

As he spoke, he took two quick steps and walked in front of Wei Hong, with a nervous expression on his face, he said: "This secret passage is long and stuffy, and your health is not good... just let me know if there is anything, and I will go find you, why not?" come in person."

I don't know who dug this secret passage, from the Prime Minister's Mansion directly to his bedroom, even a normal person would have to walk for two quarters of an hour to get there, Mr. is handicapped, so he seldom comes here to look for him if he has nothing important to do.

Wei Hong pressed his throat hard and waved his hands: "It's okay, I'm not too weak to walk a few more steps."

"You should pay more attention." Huangfu Yi's simple and honest face rarely showed dissatisfaction, "The imperial doctor said, your wind and cold have not recovered, if you don't take care of it, it may leave the root cause of the disease."

The husband's health is not good, and he traveled a long distance to and from Jianan before, and when he came back, he fell seriously ill and lay in bed for half a year.

The imperial doctor said that if you don't take good care of your body, you will lose at least ten years of life.

Hearing that Huangfu Yi really cared about him, Wei Hong rarely showed a slight smile: "Don't worry, it's almost recovered, it's okay to do some more activities."

As if he didn't want to mention it any more, he straightened his expression.

"Have you heard that the envoy of the Jianan Kingdom is coming to visit our country?"

"It is said that among the people who came to visit this time, the leader is my niece."

Speaking of Gu Nanyan, Wei Hong's expression softened visibly with the naked eye.

"Yes, I have heard that at this time, I also heard people say that they came here this time for some alliance."

Wei Hong nodded slightly: "Then you know that this alliance was jointly initiated by the Jianan Kingdom and the Anyang Kingdom, with the purpose of uniting all countries in the invasion of unknown overseas countries."

"I've heard about this too." Huangfu Yi scratched his head.

"But are there really other countries overseas? I've never heard of them before."

The recorded history of this continent can be traced back thousands of years, but no history books have ever mentioned overseas countries.

"Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean you don't have it." Wei Hong said lightly.

"Maybe it's because the distance is too far away, and no one has been in touch before."

"Could it be that the Jianan Kingdom is playing tricks, that those so-called aliens were arranged by themselves, and then they formed an alliance based on this to gain benefits from it?" Huangfuyi doubted.

Wei Hong glanced at him in relief.

His nominal disciple has indeed grown a lot in recent years. Although he is still naive at times, he also knows doubts.

Unlike before, he believes what other people say.

"It's not impossible, but according to the reports from the spies, there was indeed a tragic war in Linhai, Jianan Kingdom, and it was my niece who led the troops to fight."

The tragic story was about those aliens. According to the news brought back by the spies, more than half of the more than 1 alien soldiers were killed or injured, and few escaped.

His good niece won without a fight.

Wei Hong sighed, Sister Nan is indeed the blood of their Wei family, and she is as fierce as her grandfather in war.

It's a pity that her surname is not Wei, otherwise there would be no difficulty for the Wei family to rise again.

"Although I don't have much contact with this girl, Nanyan, I can see what kind of temperament she is. She doesn't bother to kill her own soldiers as enemies."

In other words, is there really something to be said about overseas aliens?

Huangfu Yi scratched his head again in confusion and said, "Even so, this matter has little to do with us."

He paused for a moment before continuing: "Father may hand it over to the Xiao family."

The Xiao family belongs to the prince's party, although the prince's appearance has been ruined, but with the support of the Xiao family, the royal father will not abolish his position as the prince for a while.

As long as he has not abolished the reserve, he is still the prince, and the Xiao family behind him is still in full swing.

"Besides, according to what you said, the establishment of this alliance is to gather the forces of various countries. The Xiao family holds the most military power. Even if the emperor doesn't want to, he has to ask General Xiao what he means."

Wei Hong smiled faintly when he heard the words, noncommittal.

He pushed the wheelchair to the wall, picked up the wick with a stick, and the light in the dark room brightened a lot.

"Do you still remember who chopped off Xiao Chong's arm?" He asked.

Huangfu Yi was startled, "The rumor is that it's Gu Nanyan..."

"It's not a rumor, it's the fact. It's just that General Xiao has a good face and doesn't have the nerve to show it."

At that time during the Battle of Calabash Valley, Xiao Chong had his arm chopped off by Nan Jieer, and he almost couldn't make it through. General Xiao hated her very much.

"My niece has a grudge against the Xiao family, but she is the head of the envoy this time. Do you think General Xiao will agree to join the alliance?"

Although Huangfu Yi was a little silly, he still had some brains, and immediately grasped the point when he heard the words.

"Naturally, you don't agree. What do you mean we can use this to do?"

Wei Hong nodded lightly: "We and the Xiao family are in opposition. We oppose what they agree to, and we agree to what they object to."

"Not to mention that it's not a bad thing to stand on the united front with my niece, and it might help you to a higher level."

In the past, he had nothing to do with the fifth prince on the surface, and had always been in contact secretly. But since his return from Jianan Kingdom, General Xiao seemed to have noticed something. These days, he has been targeting him and often confronting him.

He simply pretended for so many years that he didn't want to hide anymore, so he just took this opportunity to stand with the fifth prince openly and show his position.

"Sister Nan is my niece, as long as we follow her will, she will definitely not push us away."
