Chapter 186 Embarrassment
Xiao smiled faintly at the bottom of his eyes: "Yes, young master, this subordinate took off his left arm and knocked Lord Ji unconscious before entering the secret room. He fell into a coma for about two hours, and the arm could not be attached in time. It must be red and swollen. If it drags on for another hour, Master Ji is rushing to teach the subordinates, the arm may be useless, even if the imperial doctor comes to fix it, it will not be as light as before."

"You did a good job. I'm afraid Mrs. Ji is only paying attention to teaching others, but not paying attention to her arm." Xiao Xilin waved her hand, signaling Xiao Yi to back down.

He looked down at Gu Yunxiao in his arms, his cheeks were blushing from sleep, and a small bouquet stuck to his cheeks, which looked a little immature.She curled up on her chest wholeheartedly, the soft warmth made Xiao Xilin's lips slightly raised.

Soon, he stroked Gu Yunxiao's smooth black hair with one hand, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

"The man from Ji's family is really shameless. He did such an exorbitant thing to you before, and he still invites you to be a guest as if nothing happened. Which hand he used to touch you before, but now he only removes it, which is cheaper Ji Keran .”

Xiao Xilin lay down again, wrapped her in her arms, and said softly: "Don't worry, I will seek justice for my wife little by little. What Ji Keran wants, I will let him get it, and then slowly lose it."

What is more uncomfortable than losing a little bit of something before you have time to be happy after getting it?

Not only did he want to let Ji Keran lose, but he also wanted this man to watch things go from his hands bit by bit!

Losing Ji Keran's long-awaited secret treasure is the first step.Losing a loyal confidant is the second step.

Without the support of treasures and the hearts of the people, Ji Keran fights alone, and in the end he will only betray his relatives.

He always plays with people's hearts time and time again, using people around him to achieve his goals.Little did they know what would happen if these people knew the truth one day?

Ji Keran always thought that everything was under control, so Xiao Xilin asked him to open his eyes wide to see what it was like when everything was not as he expected.

When Gu Yunxiao woke up, the sky was only slightly bright.

Her eyes were hazy, still shining with water, and she saw a black shadow passing by the window sill, quickly got in, and landed on the couch, it was Quier.

There was still morning dew on Hai Dongqing's wings, and Gu Yunxiao couldn't help but stretched out his hand to cover its feathers, and sure enough, his palm was wet.

It seemed very uncomfortable, shook its wings, and dropped some water droplets.

Xiao Xilin waved and pushed Hai Dongqing in front of the couch, lest it throw all the water droplets on Gu Yunxiao's body.

Hai Dongqing glanced over aggrievedly, then carefully flew to the table, and reluctantly gave a low cry to Xiao Xilin.

Gu Yunxiao sounds funny, it seems that Kui'er feels disgusted by Xiao Xilin, is this a protest?

"Where did Kui Er go to play early in the morning?" She felt strange. Hai Dongqing usually stayed in front of the couch and dozed off when she woke up in the morning. Since she was attacked last time, as long as Xiao Xilin When it wasn't there, it squatted obediently in front of Gu Yunxiao, like a dedicated guard.

Xiao Xilin smiled, put her arms around her and said, "I let it go out to do some business, and there is no need for Xiao Yi to go over for a little matter."

Hai Dongqing yelled again when he heard it being said.

Gu Yunxiao's small face was pillowed on Xiao Xilin's chest, and she smiled softly, "It seems that Kui'er is not happy about this little thing?"

Xiao Xilin lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth slightly curved: "I let it steal the treasure key that Lord Ji always hides, and return it to the original owner."

Gu Yunxiao was taken aback, she vaguely knew what Wen Ruqi was hiding, and knew that there was a key hidden in Ji Jiaqian's golden lock.

It's just that it's not known whether the key belongs to the treasure house or not.

Now, according to Xiao Xilin, the treasure house has been found?
"Master Ji succeeded, did your husband stop him?"

If Ji Keran really got what he wanted, it might not be a good thing.Gu Yunxiao knew that this man had great ambitions and might do something bad.

"Ma'am, don't worry, what he wants is not that simple, so naturally he won't get what he wants so easily." Xiao Xilin stroked her black hair, and said: "Many people know the key, Xiao Yi I went in and looked at it, and half of the things inside have already been taken away, obviously someone has already gone in earlier. As for what was taken away, most of them were gold, silver and jewelry."

Xiao Yi found an interesting place, he took two brocade boxes from the bed and put them in front of Gu Yunxiao.

She opened it curiously, and was almost taken aback by the countless banknotes and the Ye Mingzhu the size of a baby's fist: "These are taken from the treasure house? Look at this Ye Mingzhu is rare, and the number of silver notes is also very large." Amazing, who is the owner of this treasure house?"

The main reason is that half of the treasures have been taken away, so the rest must not be as valuable as before.

What are worthless are these valuable night pearls, so what is more valuable, Gu Yunxiao can't imagine how rich and powerful the owner of the treasure house is.

Maybe they are relatives of the emperor, otherwise how to get these rare treasures?

Xiao Xilin still hugged her shoulders, and the two of them leaned on the bed. Outsiders seemed to be talking about love in a low voice, and he replied casually: "Madam Gu's identity is not simple. It was just a guess before. Lock and key, it is certain that she is the first eldest daughter of the first prince."

Great prince?
Gu Yunxiao was taken aback again when he heard the words.She had heard about this Eldest Prince before, it was said that he died of a serious illness, and the imperial doctor could not save him. The Eldest Prince was so hurt that she even jumped into a well with her newborn daughter to die in love.

This incident caused a lot of trouble. Although it has been thirty years, the old men in the streets and alleys mentioned it with admiration and admiration.

A strong woman like the eldest princess is really rare.

Now listening to Xiao Xilin's meaning, not only did the First Prince's daughter not die, but was sent out?

The one who can send it out must be the eldest prince and concubine.So, is there something strange about the eldest prince's death from illness?
When it comes to the old affairs of the royal family, Gu Yunxiao lowered his eyes, hesitating in his heart that he really shouldn't get to the bottom of it.

Xiao Xilin didn't regard her as an outsider, and said with a smile: "Madam, don't worry, people who cared about what happened back then actually understood it in their hearts. It's just because of affection, no one has ever talked about it. The publicity is just for the sake of Whitewashing the peace. The eldest prince intended to rebel at the beginning. The emperor loved the eldest son, but he just planned to imprison him and make him face the wall and think about his mistakes. It is a pity that the eldest prince was arrogant and arrogant, and finally committed suicide. The eldest prince who just gave birth to the eldest daughter heard After saying that, he also jumped into the well to die for love."

It's just that no one would have guessed that what she was holding was not the eldest daughter of the first order, the real eldest daughter had already been carried by the nanny and sneaked out of the mansion.

Gu Yunxiao understood the key point after thinking about it for a while, and said with a frown: "Madam Gu is the eldest daughter of the First Prince, how could she go to Marquis An Guo? Did Marquis An Guo not know all along, or pretended not to know?" ?”

"Who knows, it doesn't matter if they know it or not, their ambitions can only be realized with Mrs. Gu. However, that nanny is loyal to the First Princess and is said to have saved her several times, so the secret of the key, I kept it a secret until I was about to die." Otherwise, the treasure house would not have been opened and a lot of things had been taken away.

Xiao Xilin was thoughtful, and asked Gu Yunxiao to look up: "Since the treasure house has been found, the husband has informed the emperor, but no one is looking after it?"

"I always feel that the treasure house cannot be the only one, and the key things have not been found yet." Seeing her doubts, Xiao Xilin explained softly: "At the beginning, in order to win over the courtiers, the eldest prince searched for their handles everywhere and collected a lot. Let the courtiers willingly sacrifice their lives for him. In the eyes of the First Prince, there are no forever loyal courtiers, and only by frightening them with a handle can one be at ease."

"Don't be suspicious, don't be suspicious about employing people. Even if the eldest prince really became the emperor at the beginning, he wouldn't be a wise king." Gu Yunxiao sighed, who would be willing to use only threats to make his subjects work hard?
The eldest prince's failure has long been doomed, but it is a pity that he has not been able to see it clearly.

"Is your husband planning to find something about these courtiers and send them back to the emperor?" For the emperor, it was too dangerous for these things to fall into the hands of others.

Xiao Xilin nodded: "That's true. If you don't find out, those courtiers can't rest assured for a day. At the beginning, the matter was too involved, and the emperor didn't have the heart to kill. If it should be dealt with, the others will be dealt with lightly. But buried It's time to pull out the thorn in the courtier's heart after all these years."

The time of the old emperor's reign is running out, and he intends to pass the throne to the second prince.Then the mess left by the First Prince needs to be cleaned up.

Otherwise, the courtiers would be able to betray the lord if they were seized by others. How can the second prince sit firmly on the dragon chair underneath?

"Husband, could it be that Mrs. Hou took those things? After all, Mrs. Gu hasn't known about her background all these years, but Mrs. Hou may not be." Gu Yunxiao thought for a while and raised this possibility.

Xiao Xilin nodded in agreement: "Yes, I think the same as Madam. It may not be a coincidence that Madam Hou will take Madam Gu back home and raise her as her own daughter."

It may not be the arrangement of the eldest prince's concubine that the nanny took out the eldest prince's eldest daughter and finally delivered it to Mrs. Hou.

"It's just that the eldest concubine and Madam Hou seemed to have only met twice before she was alive, and had almost no private communication. Why she entrusted her to Madam Hou is really intriguing." Seeing that it was still early, Xiao Xilin smiled apologetically: "It's disturbing The madam is asleep, so I can leave these trivial matters to my husband, and the madam doesn't have to worry about it, lest I get tired, and my aunt will be unhappy."

Gu Yunxiao blushed immediately, and she heard the deep meaning in Xiao Xilin's words.Every time Mrs. Zhen Guohou saw her, she would inadvertently look up at her belly, with a look of anticipation. How could she not know that she was looking forward to conceiving Xiao Xilin's child quickly?
