Chapter 553 Hand in (one more)
The eldest princess was waiting in Qin Wubing's room, with food on the table, she seemed to know that Qin Wubing would be back soon.

After Qin Wubing entered the room and saw the eldest princess, he unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wash your hands and eat first."

Qin Wubing nodded heavily.

The questioning words that had been in my mind during the day had long since disappeared.

Seeing the table full of food, the old monk also yelled that he was hungry. The three of them sat at the same table, didn't talk much, and quickly ran out of food.

The eldest princess took a sip of tea, looked at the old monk and said, "Uncle Qi, go and see Lin Huai, I have something to tell him."

The old monk stared, Qin Wubing coughed lightly, the old monk stared and said: "Okay!"

When the old monk left the room, Qin Wubing sat in front of the eldest princess and asked gently, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

The eldest princess's tears fell instantly.

Qin Wubing held the eldest princess's hand tightly and said: "My concubine loves you, but she has her own reasons. This may be the best form of protection for you."

The eldest princess nodded, but the tears were still flowing.

"At least, in the last few years, the mother and concubine did not live in sorrow. Look at those people in the harem, which one is not full of sadness. You don't have to wait for the years to destroy yourself, and you will destroy yourself first."

"Have you seen it?" The Eldest Princess tilted her head and asked.

Qin Wubing realized that he had dug a hole for himself, and immediately said: "Your empress dowager looks like that, what can others do?"

The eldest princess thought about it and thought it was right.

Qin Wubing raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the eldest princess's face, and said softly: "We will have a child in the future, no matter what difficulties we face, we will not be separated from the child!"

The eldest princess looked up at Qin Wubing, and said seriously: "We don't want that kind of predicament!"

Qin Wubing nodded heavily and said, "Yes, no!"

"So, I want to discuss with you, should we return all the belongings of the concubine mother to the emperor?"

Qin Wubing raised his eyebrows, nodded without hesitation and said: "That's a good idea! Our Qin family can support you! Besides, it's too easy to be criticized for keeping so much property."

"You know there are many?"

"Uncle Qi came back with me, do you think I don't know? It's just that He Sheng once thought about it, the queen mother also thought it was useful, and Duke Qin wanted it even more. I wondered what was in the mother's relic as important?"

The Eldest Princess shook her head and said: "There are more than 100 boxes in total, and only [-] boxes were counted this day, and nothing special was found. It is true that they are all worth some money."

Qin Wubing breathed a sigh of relief.

"Leave the rest to the emperor to investigate. It has nothing to do with us. Have you told the emperor?"

The eldest princess pouted: "Don't I have to discuss it with you first?!"

Qin Wubing smirked a few times and said: "I will enter the palace with you tomorrow..."

"You still have peace talks with the Beiyuan mission tomorrow. I will enter the palace now. Anyway, the emperor said that I can enter the palace whenever I want. It is safer to hand over the things left by the mother and concubine to the emperor as soon as possible."

Qin Wubing thought of the Northern Yuan Mission, his head was a little swollen, he first sighed, and then said: "Mother Concubine kept it for you to make you rich for the rest of your life, if you can achieve this goal, you will live up to your mother's concubine's wish , don’t necessarily have to stay by your side.”

"By the way, last night I met the person who served my concubine named Shanju. She said that after Madam Xu came out of the secret passage, she first met with the person who responded to her. When they wanted to leave, they were blocked by concubine mother's people." Stopped, Shanju said that Grandma Xu was very frightened when she came out of the secret passage alone, and it was even worse when she suddenly saw someone blocking her. Yes, Shan Ju said that they didn't want anyone's life at the time, so she felt a little sorry, and wanted to bury Xu Mama well, but after discussing with them, they felt that it was necessary to report to the royal family that someone knew about the secret passage , Only then did Madam Xu, who had been washed and washed, be brought back to the edge of the field and placed there."

When Qin Wubing heard that it was Madam Xu's case, he immediately became energetic, but when he heard that it was no different from what he deduced, he frowned again.

"Are you tired? I'm going into the palace now, you should rest early!" The princess stood up, Qin Wubing muttered:

"I just can't figure it out. What is the Empress Dowager asking Madam Xu to go for this trip? Before that, I was wondering when He Sheng told the Empress Dowager about this. Now I understand more or less, it should be After the new emperor ascended the throne! He Sheng said that he never thought that the first emperor would let him guard the mausoleum. He thought he could live in peace in the mansion he bought in the capital. I got the relic, but he was transferred to guard the mausoleum, what should I do?"

"What's the use of telling the Queen Mother?"

"The Queen Mother is the Queen Mother! She is no longer a neglected concubine, and she has some power in her hands. However, what they want is definitely not the same. I mean, He Sheng and the Queen Mother both have their own desires." If there are only gold, silver and jewelry in the belongings of the mother concubine... I used to think that He Sheng was thinking about the silver, but then I thought, he has so much, why bother to get the silver from the concubine mother?"

"Could it be that there is something strange in calligraphy, painting and antiques?"

Qin Wubing shook his head and said:

"I don't know, now that the Queen Mother can conspire with Duke Qin, no matter who finds who first, there is no way to force it. The Queen Mother herself has no ability... By the way, Marquis Wu Ding said that the son of Duke Qin seems to be in urgent need of money for something. , I don’t have time to investigate these two days, you want to go to the palace and tell the emperor, see who is ordered to investigate, Duke Qin is no better than others, or wait until I get the Beiyuan mission away. It would be troublesome for anyone to investigate!"

"Get a good rest first, don't think too much, the emperor will make arrangements! Everything is waiting for you to do, I really think I am made of iron!"

The eldest princess complained and walked out of the room.

……

The old monk has been paying attention to the movement in Qin Wubing's yard, and he told Xiaofu that the eldest princess should let him know as soon as she leaves.

After Qin Wubing saw off the eldest princess at the gate of the courtyard, he went to sit in Lin Huai's room for a while, but the old monk was already waiting in his room.

When Qin Wubing slowly returned to his room, the old monk was already furious: "Have you been sent to the eldest princess' mansion?"

"No, I went to sit in Lin Huai's room for a while."

"I'm so anxious, you still have the mind to chat in other people's rooms?" The old monk asked angrily in disbelief.

Qin Wubing tilted his head to look at the old monk and said seriously: "You are my uncle! You are not my daughter-in-law. Whose room should I sit in? Why are you so angry? Besides, I don't want you to know Yes, the more you sharpen your head and want to know, why can't you understand something?"

"I……"
