Hearing that there were treasures in two mountains, Jin Qing's heart suddenly surged.
Treasure = golden mountain = endless money
If this brings back space, then she will be the richest kid in the world...
707: "..." Paranoia is also a type of neurosis, so host, you must be calm. The treasures of this era are definitely different from those you think of.
Seeing Jin Qing's eyes turned red with excitement, Xiu felt even more uncomfortable. Those were the two treasure mountains left to Ji Hou by the old Marquis Ji, and they were the foundation of their country's strength.
Lao Jihou tried his best to conceal the matter about Baoshan, and then told Jihou the location of the two mountains.
In order to avoid being discovered by other vassal states and causing trouble to Xi Kingdom, even Xiu only knew roughly the existence of these two mountains, but did not know their specific locations.
Xiu originally thought that Ji Hou could use these two mountains to make Xi Gui more powerful, but who would have thought that Ji Hou planned to use these two treasure mountains in exchange for Jin Qing to rescue Xi Gui...
Xiu's reluctance was all written on his face, and now he just wanted to hear Jin Qing's voice of rejection.
Jin Qing, a clinker, happily patted Xiu on the shoulder: "Don't worry, everything will be taken care of by me." Her tone was as kind as a close sister next door.
Xiu: "..." You can actually refuse!
Thinking of the two treasure mountains mentioned by Xiu, Jin Qing was in a good mood. He didn't expect that there would be unexpected gains in this world.
Jin Qing tilted her head and consoled Xiu thoughtfully: "Don't worry Ji Hou, I will bring you back tomorrow. If you have any brothers or sisters who need to be rescued together, I will bring them back to you." As long as the price is right, whatever!
Xiu: "...No." Can you hope that I will be better?
And the cost of saving people is too high, even if there is any, let them redeem themselves!
Jin Qing scratched the back of his head: Okay, you can do whatever you want.
The next night, Chu Palace was stolen.
Not much was lost, just a box of jewelry, and most importantly, people were lost.
What was lost was King Chu's favorite Xi Gui, as well as Xi Gui's newborn son.
The King of Chu was very angry about this, and it was just nightfall when the incident happened.
When he arrived at Xigui Palace, he saw that the child was just getting ready to sleep. Princess Chu sent someone to invite King Chu, saying that the prince had a fever, and asked King Chu to hurry over and take a look.
Although the King of Chu loved his concubine, he valued his son more.
After hearing what the visitor said, he put on his clothes and left in a hurry. He also specifically ordered his eunuchs to take good care of Xi Gui and her son.
But who would have thought that as soon as he was sent away by Princess Chu, Xi Gui and his son disappeared at the same time.
The King of Chu immediately sent people to investigate, and everyone on duty in Xi Gui's palace said that when Gui Ji disappeared, they only felt a wind-like black shadow rushing into Xi Gui's room, and then leaving quickly.
Later, when they went in to check, they found that Xi Gui and the young master had disappeared in full view of the public.
Several older palace servants were trembling and said to King Chu: "This must be the work of ghosts, it must be the work of ghosts."
After hearing what these people said, King Chu kicked the table over angrily. How could such a coincidence happen? It was clearly planned by someone.
From the moment the princess sent someone to call him away until Xi Gui disappeared, it was clear that someone deliberately set up a trap to deal with Xi Gui and her son.
King Chu was furious. He finally got such a satisfying toy, so why were these people so unhappy with him?
What he hated most was that the act of entering the palace and stealing Concubine was simply a provocation to his royal power.
But after much deliberation, King Chu suppressed the anger in his heart.
It's not that this matter cannot be investigated, but that it should not be investigated. Bringing Xi Gui back originally caused dissatisfaction among the officials in the country.
Later, he was really nice to Xi Gui, and even made the women in the harem jealous.
If Xi Gui really falls into the hands of these people, she will eventually die.
Why would he stir up the stable state of Chu into a pot of porridge for the sake of two people who were bound to die?
Thinking of this, the anger in King Chu's heart was completely suppressed. Now that Xi Gui has disappeared, it is actually not a bad thing, but she has to give Chen Guo an explanation.
Anyway, as long as Xi Gui didn't go back and slap him in the face, he didn't care who took Xi Gui away.
Thinking of this, King Chu called his confidants: "Go and deal with all the people who know about Gui Ji's disappearance, and set a fire in Gui Ji's palace."
The confidant was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly understood what King Chu meant: "Nuo."
Before his confidants could leave, the King of Chu added: "Let the spies pay attention to the movements of Xiwang's palace. If they see Xi Gui's mother and son, they will be killed immediately." No one wants what he can't get.
Confidant: "Take the order!" He is indeed the king of Chu who is decisive in killing!
In the afternoon of that day, bad news came from the Chu Palace: There was a fire in the Chu Palace, and Xi Gui, her children, and not even the palace residents were able to escape...
Queen Chu was changing the cloth on her son's head to reduce his fever.
After hearing the servant's report, the queen smiled lightly: "He can let it go." Looking at this posture, Xi Gui must die no matter what.
I just don’t know who has the ability to take people away from the palace.
A bold servant approached the queen and said, "Queen, will this affect you?"
Queen Chu smoothed the cloth on her son's head and said in a calm tone: "What influence can it have? If it was really me who did it, the king would personally help me smooth away the traces. What's more, with my identity, how can I bother to do it?" Do something like this." This was her confidence as a queen.
The servant blinked his eyes in understanding: Yes, the person in front of him is the legitimate queen of Chu Kingdom.
After twisting a cloth towel for her son again, Queen Chu shook the water on her hand: although she didn't know who touched Xi Gui, she really hoped that Xi Gui could be alive. After all, she could feel the admiration of a woman. There really aren’t many left.
Living in troubled times with all kinds of helplessness, she can still live while persisting in her persistence. This Xi Gui is truly a character. I hope she can survive!
Xi Gui was resisted by Jin Qing and returned to Xi country.
After all, they were biological sisters. When they were in the palace, Xi Gui recognized Jin Qing at one glance, and then let Jin Qing carry her away without saying a word.
Along the way, although Jin Qing jolted her so much that she felt like vomiting, Xi Gui gritted her teeth and remained silent. In her heart, her sister would never harm her.
I don't know how Jin Qing did it, but Xi Gui's child has always been sleeping peacefully in Jin Qing's arms.
Jin Qing ran for a full six hours before finally arriving at Xiwang Palace.
At this time, although the Xi Palace was still peaceful on the surface, in fact, there was an undercurrent: their master had been missing for three whole days.
