Chapter 491 Catch the Thief, On the Side

Princess Bingxian has been to the Observation Tower twice, and the current Observation Tower is the same as before, so she didn't mention those compliments.

After meeting each other, Princess Bingxian straight to the point, "Xin Ruo, I have something to ask you today, and you also know that the marriage between Yuelin and Mr. Ruan was originally scheduled for the end of this month.

But I heard rumors that the postponement was due to the matter of Lord Yue. Your elder brother followed Lord Yue to find the iron box, but there is no news so far, but what happened?Don't hide it from me, I know you are well informed. "

Xin Ruo shook her head, she really didn't know the whereabouts of Zhan Liuxuan, even the right minister about Prince Yue had repeatedly told him not to leak the secret.

Xin Ruo comforted, "Brother is lucky, what can happen, what do sister-in-law take those rumors to heart?"

It's fine if it's just a rumor, this was told by the mother and concubine by the empress dowager's side.

Prince Yue didn't hear from him for more than a month. The queen mother questioned the emperor, and the emperor told the truth.

Bing Xian held Xin Ruo's hand tightly, her eyes were a little red, "I know you deliberately concealed it because you were worried about me, that day my father blew up the imperial study room with a bomb, right?

Why didn't you tell me you opened the iron box, why bother to ask your elder brother to chase after an empty box, so that I don't have any news about him now. "

Xin Ruo frowned, but said nothing. Bingxian knew that the bomb could be called a coincidence, but did she know that the opening of the iron box could be called a coincidence.

The only ones who knew these two things at the same time were she, Zhan Moyu, the prince, the emperor, and the right minister. I don't know what she wanted to ask today.

Hearing Bingxian half sobbing and half complaining, she wanted to see what was inside the iron box, and the reason was reasonable.

She has also been the imperial concubine for half a year, and this iron box was thrown from their hands, and it caused the royal family to suffer from the war, and she has always felt ashamed.

Regardless of whether Zhan Liuxuan is the prince's son or not, he is definitely a descendant of the Funing Palace.

If it wasn't for Zhan Liuxuan being able to inherit the position of the eldest son, holding the iron box in his hand and becoming the only iron hat of the emperor, Prince Ning would not have married her to Zhan Liuxuan.

Now that the positions of the iron box and the crown prince have been returned to Zhan Moyu, she only has one wish, which is to see the contents of the iron box with her own eyes, so that she has once owned it.

It was her blessing that she failed to open at the beginning, and she wanted to get some of Xin Ruo's luck.

Xin Ruo's eyes gradually darkened when she heard that, since she knew that the iron box contained the formula of the bomb, and wanted to see it for these reasons, Xin Ruo had to be suspicious.

Zhan Moyu had always suspected that Prince Ning had a different intention, and had asked the hidden guards to investigate before he went to the battlefield, and even told the prince about it, and he didn't know how the investigation went.

Xin Ruo thought about it and smiled, "Prince Ning will tell you everything, he is not afraid that you will know too much about the danger, so I have nothing to hide, the iron box has indeed been opened.

It was also thanks to the fire, otherwise Xianggong would not be able to open the iron box, but just after opening, the emperor sent his father-in-law to take away the iron box.

The sister-in-law also knew that people who practice martial arts are many times more sensitive to weight than ordinary people, so Xianggong kept the bomb in his heart and put the things back as they were.

The iron box caused war among the Three Kingdoms. If we knew it was opened, we don’t know how much disaster it would bring us, so my husband and I kept it a secret.

A while ago, two bombs were developed, and they were intended to be given to the emperor, but the emperor didn't want them, and said they were coal.

The father felt that he had insulted the wisdom of King Funing's ancestors, so he let the emperor see the power of coal.

Later, the emperor knew about the iron box, and the scroll recording the code to open the iron box was also given to the emperor by his father.

You know, the emperor is afraid that my husband and I will not be able to keep it, so he has to keep it himself before he can rest assured.

Now that the iron box is lost, if the painting scroll is also lost, the Palace of Funing really can't bear it, we are ministers, we can't hold him back.

The iron box is still the original iron box, but it was opened once by Zeng Jin. Later, the father knew that we had opened it, and he kept the contents of it untouched, so he reprimanded the gentleman. "

When Xin Ruo said a lot, she was concerned about Princess Bingxian's reaction when she said the first sentence. Sure enough, there was a moment of astonishment, but as Xin Ruo said later, there were no ups and downs.

The corners of Xin Ruo's mouth curved slightly, it seemed that the emperor was indeed surrounded by Prince Ning's people, and the prince had indeed secretly sent the scroll to the emperor, but it was a scroll of a fake painting.

This matter is so secret that not many people know about it, Xin Ruo held Princess Bingxian's hand instead, "My husband and I deliberately concealed it so that few people knew the secret of the iron box.

The father and the emperor are not allowed to leak secrets. Since you know it, it is not a leak if I tell you, but you have to swear not to spread it. "

Princess Bingxian nodded, but said uncertainly, "You really didn't take it out?"

Xin Ruo shook her head, "At that time, the incident happened suddenly, we didn't know that the father was going to send the iron box to the emperor, and we wanted to take it out at that time, but we didn't have the courage in front of so many people.

The iron box is an ancestral inheritance of Prince Funing's Mansion. It's okay to look at it. Who dares to take it out? If it is damaged or lost, who will take the responsibility?As long as something is remembered, it doesn't matter if it exists or not. "

Princess Bingxian sighed regretfully, and said that since she couldn't see it, she would go back first.

Xin Ruo stood up to see her off, and gave Zilan and Nan'er a wink, and the two sent Princess Bingxian downstairs knowingly, sent them out of Jiangzixuan, and then walked to the gate of the palace.

After walking for a long time, Nan'er sighed, "Young Mistress is becoming more and more capable of lying. Who can tell the truth from the fake?"

Zilan stared at her hurriedly and said, "Don't talk nonsense, the young mistress trusts us so she didn't hide anything from us, didn't she lie to the princess just now, but she just concealed a little bit.

The gray ball formula was placed on the scroll, and the emperor didn't know about it, even if he knew, it would be of no use, since the young master changed it, it's not very powerful.

At most, it would be fried fish or something. This was a bad idea with the help of the young mistress. Last time the young mistress smiled so triumphantly that the young master said she was reincarnated from a fox.

Some are ten times smaller, some are five times smaller. Who knows, you have to try them one by one, forty or fifty times. Who has the spare time? If one is not good, you will die.

Ordinary people would only think that what they made was wrong, they would never think that they dared to lie to the emperor, young mistress is the most cunning.

Whoever lets the emperor keep bullying her should put the things he wants the most under his eyes and let him search everywhere. If he finds it, it is still a mistake, so he has to go faster, the fifth girl should be here soon. "

The two maids praised Xin Ruo all the way, and the maid who hid her head behind the big tree frowned and walked back quickly.

Upstairs, Xin Ruo happened to witness the servant girl reporting this to Princess Bingxian, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

Glancing slightly, she ordered Mo Lan, "Go and get me the secret guard who is in charge of Prince Channing's affairs."

Mo Lan nodded, Fushen walked down, and about half a quarter of an hour later, a hidden guard appeared in front of Xin Ruo.

Xin Ruo sipped tea and asked, "What have you found these days?"

The secret guard hurriedly replied, "Prince Ning's cronies are in charge of the treasury's money and food, and half of the money for disaster relief in Tongnan was swallowed up.

It wasn't him, it was also his cronies. The subordinates have sent people to check those cronies in batches. One of them confessed yesterday, but there is no news about the rest.

Also, Lord Ning has quite a few people under his command, like a secret organization, and his subordinates have already reported to the Lord, but when the dark guard attacked that day, one of them escaped accidentally, and they might have already alarmed the snake. "

Xin Ruo nodded, it is not a trivial matter for a prince to be greedy for ink, and Prince Ning's position in the court is not low, what needs so much money to do, disaster relief is a fat job.

Generally, the emperors of all dynasties did not expect all the money for disaster relief to be used in the hands of the people, but they tried to choose honest officials to do this, for fear that the money would be corrupted.

"Follow this road and search down. When there is enough evidence, organize it into a book and show it to me. Maybe there is a corrupt account book. Find it and send a few more secret guards to sneak into the palace.

Go to the right minister and ask him to arrange for you to guard the imperial study and help the emperor catch thieves. "

The dark guard nodded and went down, as soon as the dark guard left, there was a sweet voice from downstairs, a smile appeared on Xin Ruo's face, Xin You is here!

When Xin Ruocai stood up, there was a thumping sound from the corridor over there, and the third sister didn't stop saying a few words.

Xin Ruo was also happy. Xin You came up with a small bag on his back. When he saw Xin Ruo, he quickly opened it, "Third Sister, this is the Buddhist scripture I helped copy, here it is."

Xin Ruofan looked at it, she was dripping with sweat, but she didn't write an article in seven or eight days.

Xin You wrote a lot, Xin Ruo hurriedly pulled Xin You to sit down, "You have to go to the Princess Mansion to study in the morning, and you have to help copy Buddhist scriptures in the afternoon, you must be tired after eating a lot."

Xin You shook his head and said he was not tired, and Xin Ruo poured her a cup of tea.

Xin You drank, but his eyes were on Xin Ruo's stomach, "Mother said, I can hear the baby now, is it true?"

Xin Ruo nodded, Xin You's eyes were wide open, his ears were directly on Xin Ruo's stomach, he held his breath, and his eyes didn't even blink.

After a long time, I looked up at Xin Ruo, "Third Sister, they must have fallen asleep."

Xin You was a little bit disappointed, but thinking that she could stay here for four or five days, she could always hear, so she chatted with Xin Ruo.

While chatting, Bei'er came up to report, "Young Mistress, the young son of the eldest princess' mansion is here."

Xin Ruo was a little stunned when he heard it, and Xin You didn't understand, what is he doing here?
Xin Ruo asked Mo Lan to go down to pick him up, then pinched Xin You's little face, and said with a smile, "He goes to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so he must be looking for you."

Xin You pouted, "He taunted me a lot today, I don't want to see him, third sister, I'll go in and hide."
