Chapter 52
Mu Changming was silent for a long time, looked at Mu Qingyi and sighed, "It would be great if Yun Rong was half as sensible as you." Mu Qingyi smiled and said nothing, but she knew that Mu Changming's heart was a little shaken.

Originally, Mu Changming was not so easy to shake. After all, Concubine Rou's status and his relationship with the Sun family for more than 20 years were not something that Mu Qingyi could easily shake with a few words.But Mu Changming was disappointed by Sun's and Mu Ling's and Mu Yunrong's performance these days.For the sake of the Suchenghou Mansion, he also had to make more plans.Because things that even Mrs. Mu couldn't persuade on weekdays, now listening to Mu Qingyi's words, it turned out to be very reasonable.

"Why did Yi'er think of saying this?" Mu Changming asked calmly, he can't be blamed for being suspicious, this daughter has really changed a lot during this period.Sometimes Mu Changming wondered if the girl in front of him was still the taciturn daughter.

Mu Qingyi said calmly: "Qingyi is already 16 years old. If Suchenghou's residence is not good, how can Qingyi be good?"

Hearing this, Mu Changming's expression eased, and he felt that he really thought too much.The Zhang family is no longer there, the Gu family has been destroyed, and the Zhang family has long since fallen. Apart from Suchenghou's mansion, who else can Qing Yi rely on?
"Good boy, father knows that he has wronged you for the past two years." Mu Changming looked at the thin and beautiful face of the young girl in front of him with rare guilt, and said, "Yi'er, don't worry, father will definitely choose a good marriage for you. I will wrong you. Your third sister is not sensible, so you should take more care of her on weekdays."

Mu Qingyi's delicate face was slightly dizzy, she nodded and said: "Qingyi understands, I will follow my father's instruction."

Mu Changming nodded in satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's go. You go back and rest first, father still has some things to deal with."

"Yes, Qingyi said goodbye."

Apart from Mu Changming's courtyard, Mu Qingyi quickened his pace and headed towards his own Lanzhi courtyard.She hasn't had time to look at the things brought out from Qing'an Pavilion.But she had a hunch that there must be a lot of things left by her grandfather.Most importantly, she felt that this was an excellent...opportunity to rescue her eldest brother.

The wealth left behind by the Gu family is astonishing.The brochure that Feng Zhishui handed over to him recorded that the Gu family had more than 20 shops in the capital, and there were three Zhuangzi outside the capital. There are more than 10 million taels of silver tickets and 1 taels of gold tickets.In addition, there are all kinds of antique calligraphy and paintings that have been registered and compiled, and the treasures handed down from the ancestors. Mu Qingyi just did a rough calculation, and there are at least 100 million taels in the capital alone.But what needs to be known is that the foundation of the Gu family is not really in the capital.Although the Gu family was inadvertently taken over by the Emperor Hua preemptively, but the Gu family's industries not only spread all over China, but even in surrounding countries.Counting up to 300 years, the Gu family used to have a thriving population, but it has gradually become sparsely populated in the past few decades.It is precisely because of this that many of the side branches that were originally distributed have returned to the main family, and the amount is even more frightening.

Such an astonishing amount of wealth... no wonder... no wonder Murong Yu is willing to spare her and her elder brother's lives.Even if Mu Qingyi didn't know Murong Yu very well, she still knew a general idea.Murong Yu looked gentle and elegant, but in fact he was ruthless.What he has always pursued is to cut grass and roots, such as sending her to Cuihong Pavilion and sending his elder brother to Prince Ning's Mansion, which is of no benefit to him at all. The descendants of the Gu family.The only possibility is... There are other uses for keeping them.

The wealth of the Gu family can't be said to be incomparable to a country, but it is definitely not comparable to Murong Yu, who is now just a prince who lives on the rewards of the Huahuang.If he gets all the property of the Gu family, Murong Yu...even if the rebellion is not enough to seize the heir apparent, there is absolutely no problem.

Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty.Mu Qingyi smiled wryly, if that was the case, it also explained why Murong Yu and the emperor had to deal with the Gu family.

After pondering for a moment, Mu Qingyi's smiling cherry lips lifted up slightly, and a very faint sneer appeared.Since Murong Yu still doesn't give up on the wealth of the Gu family, then...it depends on whether you have the ability to get it.

The next day, a rumor spread from nowhere in the capital.At that time, almost all of the Gu family ransacked, but the huge wealth accumulated by the Gu family for hundreds of years was transferred and hidden by the Gu family one step ahead of time.What's more, among these treasures, there is also the rare and rare treasure Nine Turns Linglong, which has been missing as early as 300 years ago.According to legend, the world will be ruled by the person who has turned Nine Linglong, and the founding emperor of the former Great Wu Dynasty and the founding emperor of the Hua Kingdom in this dynasty have confirmed this rumor.It's just that after Taizu passed away, the whereabouts of the nine-turn Linglong disappeared.

As soon as the news came out, the entire capital suddenly became undercurrents.The position of the entire Chinese royal family also became a little awkward, and everyone seemed to suddenly realize, oh, so it is.Everyone knows that the Gu family is loyal and loyal. Even if the Gu family really had any disobedience, Huahuang's handling of it three years ago was too harsh and too fast.But if it's for Nine Turns Linglong, it makes sense.

At the same time, the matter of the Gu family, which had already fallen to the ground, was once again brought up and discussed.They also said that the Gu family was guilty of harboring a jade, and some said that the Gu family had hidden such a treasure, and they really had a heart of disobedience.No matter what others said, Mu Qingyi just laughed it off when it reached Mu Qingyi's ears.The whole family of Gu's family has been executed for treason, what could be worse than this?
In Prince Ning's mansion, Murong An sat lazily on the couch and looked at his elder brother who came in a hurry, and said, "Sixth brother, why do you have time to visit my younger brother?" Now that envoys from various countries are gathering in the capital, Murong Yu is really busy.Even though Murong An's injuries hadn't healed, Murong Yu rarely cared about him these days.

"Where is Gu Xiuting?" Murong Yu said in a deep voice.

Murong An's expression changed slightly, he sat up and asked, "What happened?"

Murong Yu walked to the side and sat down, and said coldly: "Didn't you hear the uproar outside?"

Murong An glanced at Murong Yu with some guilt.During this period of time, it was rare for Gu Xiuting not to make a fuss about life and death, and occasionally he could say a word or two, he was just happy, and he didn't have the mood to care about the outside affairs.Anyway, he was not interested in being the emperor or the prince, so he didn't bother with that.

Murong Yu glared at him, glanced at the staff who came in behind him, and said, "Mr. Zhu, tell me." Then Mr. Zhu told the rumors of the past few days.Murong An frowned and said, "Sixth brother, do you suspect that it was Xiu Ting's news? Then you might as well suspect that it was Murong Xi!"

Murong Yu's face was a little ugly. If he could confirm where the news came from Murong Xi, why would he come here?Over the past few years, Murong Xi's mansion has already been filled with eyeliners, not only his, but other princes and even his father's.If Murong Xi really made a move, he would be courting death, "The only people in this capital who are related to the Gu family are Gu Xiuting besides Murong Xi. What's more, besides this kind of thing now, do you think you can still kill him?" How long have you been hiding in the mansion? Do you really think that the father doesn't know that you have hidden someone in the mansion?"
