The common people in the capital felt that something was wrong today. Last night, the Jin Yiwei and the Military and Horse Division, together with the capital camp, caused chaos in the city. Early this morning, they saw more than a hundred Jin Yiwei fully armed leaving the city, and the Imperial City Dong'anmen Gate. Open, nearly a hundred carriages filed out, what kind of trouble is this?
There were all kinds of rumors all the time.
In the imperial city, Emperor Chongzhen, who had just retired from the dynasty, was discussing with Li Banghua and other big officials in the Wenyuan Pavilion about building a school. This was the foundation of the country. They had no reason to object, but they did not agree very much, just because the treasury Money is tight, and there is nothing to eat right now. How many people are going to starve to death this winter, how can they have the mood and money to build a school to accommodate those children.
However, when they heard that Emperor Chongzhen said that the expenses would not be borne by the treasury, and that the rest would be raised from the royal family, they breathed a sigh of relief and said that this was a great thing. After all, as long as it does not cost the treasury, you can do whatever you want.
Outside Zuo'an Gate, Chang Yu looked at Wu Mengming with a puzzled look on his face. He dispatched a team of Jin Yiwei to accompany him. Unexpectedly, it was Wu Mengming who led the team in person: "Master Wu, our family is so busy that we can't even sleep for an hour." ", you are free, you are going out for an outing."
Wu Mengming smiled bitterly and shook his head: "To put it bluntly, the child has no mother, let's just put it in a humble position. The one who cheated the father of the country out of the one hundred thousand taels of silver and the humble position was the one who charged into the battle. Now he is entangled and can't get rid of it. The governor, you are ruthless. I heard he said that he was threatened by you yesterday and was so scared that he didn't dare to trouble you. It's good that he went to my house to block it first and then went to the Yamen to block it..."
Chang Yu laughed loudly and whispered to Wu Mengming: "If you don't find someone to kill him," Wu Mengming shivered in fright and waved his hands vigorously: "Come on, don't cheat on your humble position. It doesn't matter if you become someone else. This... they are really relatives of the emperor. Although there is no harmony now, who knows one day the family will suddenly get married. At that time... hehe, I was timid in my humble position and didn't even dare to say threatening words, but the governor was still awesome. He's so powerful." He said, giving Chang Yu a thumbs up: "I admire you so much for your humble position."
Chang Yu didn't give up yet: "The dignified commander of the Jinyi Guards is actually afraid of this. You secretly found someone to kill him. Who knows how he died? Besides, the governor's threats were probably spread out by him by now." Even if he is dead, others will think it was the governor who did it. Mr. Wu, be brave."
"Eh, no, no, no, I can't be brave enough to be humble." Wu Mengming shook his head and waved his hands: "If it were as simple as the Governor said, wouldn't Dongchang have taken action long ago? Lord Governor, I just came out to hide for a while, please don't It’s a shameful job.” Wu Mengming begged, and Chang Yu sighed: "It's boring."
"That said, what are you going to do with such a big battle of mobilizing people and vehicles? Could it be hunting, but there won't be so many vehicles... Oh, it's not going to Tongzhou to haul sweet potatoes... ...Well, it wouldn’t be faster to use a boat." Wu Mengming said to himself, and Chang Yu casually said: "Go dig for treasures."
"Digging for treasure?" Wu Mengming was a little excited and a little confused.
Yes, Chang Yu made nonsense: "Yesterday our family had a dream, there is a village in the southeast, and there are many treasures buried in the village."
Ah, is there such a thing? Wu Mengming was a little excited. If others heard this, they would only believe it with half doubt at most. However, Chang Yu was a magical existence in his heart, and he was also one of Chang Yu's crazy fans. Even if Chang Yu said that Wu Bangfu was actually his father, Wu Mengming He will always wonder if his wife has really cuckolded him.
As the name suggests, Panjiayao is a kiln-fired village. Everything is burned in brick kilns, porcelain kilns, bottles and cans. The village is surrounded by large pits left by soil extraction, and these pits are also where Chang Yu trained Gong Ziying when he first started his business. The scene I saw when I passed here was vivid in my mind and I was filled with emotion.
At that time, Chang Yu bought a dilapidated house in the west of the village. He intended to keep it as a backup. Later, he dug holes to bury the palace treasures and built a nursing home for eunuchs above, which was guarded by more than ten servants.
Later, when the Qing army besieged the capital, all the people in the village fled. This was a no-man's land. After the Tatars left, many people in the village went to the city to beg, and only a few families returned.
At that time, the eunuchs who were responsible for burying the treasures in the palace were all affiliated with Gongziying. These people were strict-mouthed. They were either in the military or in the palace and were all under the control of Chang Yu. No one would leak the news. In order to eliminate any possibility of leakage, the eunuchs were in charge at that time. The servants who were guarding the outside were all forced into the army by him. At this time, they were either killed in the battle or still in the army and knew nothing about it. As for the second wave of servants, they had no idea that there were so many treasures buried underneath.
The nursing home has not yet been completed, but more than ten houses have been built. Chang Yu led more than a hundred people directly into the village, which made the servants who were guarding here turn pale with fright. They relaxed after seeing the people clearly.
These servants say they are here to guard the home, but in fact they are just construction workers responsible for building the nursing home. Although the work is long and heavy, there are not many jobs these days that provide food, drink, a place to live, and a salary.
Chang Yu pointed to the place, and more than a dozen Jinyi guards started to work with their hoes. Wu Mengming squatted on a stone next to him, holding his head and looking at the sweaty men with faces full of expectation. Is there really a treasure down here?
Turning around, he saw the little eunuch and several servants looking around in those houses, looking confident. This made Wu Mengming very glad that he caught up today. If he really digs out the treasure later, let alone meet him and tell him. Half, but you can still get some benefits. Hey, if you say that, I really want to thank Zhou Kui, the head of the country.
The treasure was buried deep and tightly, and it took a while to dig it to the bottom. Chang Yu walked around in the yard and then went out to have a look in the village. He asked Wu Mengming if he wanted to go with him.
Of course Wu Mengming won't go, he wants to watch the treasure being dug.
Found it, found it!
The entrance to the cave was finally dug, and the working guards immediately cheered. Wu Mengming stood up and rushed over. He stood on top of the pit and stared at it again and again: "Good guy, it doesn't look like the entrance to the tomb... Which one should this be?" The old rich man buried it...hurry up, dig up, dig up quickly!"
Once the hole was exposed, the rest was easy. Jin Yiwei quickly dug two holes and entered to start moving the boxes wrapped in oil paper. Wu Mengming also opened it immediately. He was stunned and trembling all over. The gold, silver and jade items were all covered with gold, silver and jade. Excellent, damn it’s so developed!
It's done, it's done, it's done, Wu Mengming's eyes were shining with stars, looking at Chang Yu who was walking quickly, he couldn't help shouting: "The Governor is really a god... let's do it!"
Moreover, Chang Yu rolled his eyes and said, "What do you mean, we made a fuss? It has nothing to do with you."
ah! Wu Mengming was startled and suddenly became a little anxious: "Master Du Gong, I have done a lot of hard work by following you even though I have humbled my position. I have dug out so many things at once. You, you, you, how much reward will you get!"
Chang Yu sighed; "Our family thinks about it too, but we can't decide the issue."
What do you mean? Old Wu was confused and confused! Chang Yu casually took out a painting from the box and threw it to Wu Mengming: "You can see for yourself."
Wu Mengming took it and opened it and took a look: "Hey, the Five Cows Picture, can't this be the authentic work of Han Huang from the Tang Dynasty? Good guy, if this thing is real, it would be really rich. This is not an ordinary rich man. Listen. He said that there is a priceless pair in the palace that was passed down from the previous dynasty... Ah!" Wu Mengming suddenly opened his eyes and opened his mouth wide, and he finally realized: "Governor, this rich man is..."
