Cheng Wanwan thought seriously.
The emperor called her a woman to come and inform her of such an important matter. This was a trust placed in her and she must take it seriously.
If the former prince has been dormant in the dark for more than ten years, he must be planning a great cause. Once he takes action, the palace will be bloody. If the palace is in chaos, the world will also be in chaos.
She thought for a long time before speaking carefully: "According to the concubine's guess, the emperor has not yet found out the whereabouts of the former prince. At present, only the He family is on the bright side. To disturb the He family would be to scare the snake, and the gain outweighs the loss. It would be better to How about using the He family to lure out the former prince, lure the snake out of the hole, and invite you into the urn?"
"The people of Suishu and I have gone to the same place, but unfortunately -" the emperor sighed, "In the past ten days or so, I have relaxed the defense of the palace and even asked most of the soldiers stationed in the garrison to take leave early to celebrate the New Year. , it can be said that today's imperial city guards are extremely lax, which is the best time to rebel. However, for many days, there was no movement in the He family, and there was no trace of the former prince Xiao Jue. It is a good idea to invite you to enter the urn, but If he doesn’t come, what will happen?”
The He family's intention to rebel was so important that only he, Lao Liu, General Hussar, and Suishu knew about it.
These days, he called Lao Liu and General Ruan to the imperial study almost every day to discuss important matters, but he couldn't come up with a good plan.
There are many ministers in the court, but if these ministers are called here to discuss, it will cause great panic. Moreover, some of the ministers were close ministers of the former prince. If they learn that the former prince is still alive, there may be unrest. The thoughts you should have.
The emperor thought about it, and it seemed that he could only call people from Sui Shu to discuss it.
Although Sui Shuren is a woman, her intelligence and acumen are not inferior to those of men. He believes that Sui Shuren can give him a good idea.
Cheng Wanwan thought carefully.
She had watched so many related movies and TV series in her previous life, and she didn't believe she couldn't think of a good plan.
Sitting affected the brain's thinking, so she simply stood up and walked around the imperial study room. She walked back and forth countless times before finally stopping.
She turned her head and looked at the emperor: "The reason why the former prince did not fall into the trap may be because he guessed the emperor's plan. He knew that there was an ambush and still raised troops to rebel. Isn't this a suicide? The former prince should know the emperor's art. , it would be better to use other more down-to-earth methods to force the former prince to take action."
The emperor became somewhat interested: "Sui Shu, please tell me carefully."
"Last time, my wife and Miss Ruan disappeared. People in the capital thought that the two of us went to Xishan to appreciate the plum blossoms. The people don't know exactly what we went through. The He family could tell that someone had entered the cave, but inside the cave They don't know whether anyone has entered the secret room." Cheng Wanwan smiled, "And the He family is afraid of alerting others, so they will never transfer those weapons during this period. As long as the weapons are still there, we can do big things. article……"
She took two steps forward and explained her plan carefully.
It was late that night, the snow stopped, and Cheng Wanwan walked out of the imperial study room.
When she got on the carriage home, she was shocked to realize that she had not eaten enough water and rice all afternoon and all night, and she was so hungry that her chest pressed against her back without even realizing it.
It is estimated that the emperor is also like this, otherwise he would definitely keep her in the palace for a meal.
After returning home, Mrs. Qi quickly prepared hot dishes and rice. After eating, she lay on the bed but couldn't fall asleep.
Although she has watched many movies and TV series, she has never experienced it personally. Whenever she thinks about what is about to happen, she can't calm down.
The original intention was to use this opportunity to dislodge the He family. Who would have thought that the He family would actually get involved with the former prince?
I thought I would just spend my life farming and doing business. Who would have thought that I would be involved in a court struggle?
The night passed in a daze, and the next day was already the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month.
Here in the capital, it is the New Year's Day. After the snow stops, the streets become lively and have a bit of a New Year atmosphere.
Meanwhile, there are some rumors on the street.
"Have you heard that the Xie family's treasure map was discovered a hundred years ago?"
"What? Treasure map? What treasure is hidden?"
"You all know the Xie family. It was a prosperous family a hundred years ago. There were three queens. The Xie family's wealth far exceeded the national treasury. Because it was so popular, the emperor was afraid of it and ransacked the Xie family on an unfounded charge. It is said that the person who ransacked the family After people entered the Xie family, they could not find a penny or a grain of rice... At that time, some people said that the head of the Xie family had foreseen the disaster for the Xie family, so he hid the gold and silver treasures early, and even drew pictures of the hidden treasures. The picture is left to the descendants of the Xie family."
"Didn't everyone in the Xie family be slaughtered at that time? How could there be any descendants?"
"So, the treasure map was obtained by an outsider. However, too many people were staring at the Xie family back then, so the people who took the treasure map did not dare to look for the treasure. No one mentioned it gradually. .”
"It is said that a beggar found the picture in a crack in the wall of a dilapidated temple last night. Because he did not know the goods, he sold it to the master of Duobao Pavilion for ten cents. The master of the pavilion was from the south and did not know about the Xie family. I thought the treasure map was quite interesting, so I had more than ten copies printed and sold, and many people were interested in buying them back, only to discover that the end point of the treasure map was actually the place where the Xie family’s ancestral temple was located a hundred years ago.”
"..."
This news reached Cheng Wanwan's ears.
She asked Cheng Yi to go out and buy a treasure map, and she bought a map with only three taels of silver. The picture was very winding and mysterious.
The treasure map that was just agreed upon last night was drawn up this morning and spread throughout the capital. This is the emperor's ability.
She has been to the west mountain of Linxi twice and is relatively familiar with it. However, just looking at the picture, it is still difficult to tell that it is the west mountain of Linxi. It can be seen that the person who drew the picture put a lot of effort into it.
"Mom, let's go look for treasures too." Zhao Sidan said with bright eyes after a rare day off, "It is written about the Xie family in the book. In addition to being rich, the Xie family also produced many talented scholars. After the Xie family confiscated their properties, , all the paintings and poems of the Xie family are gone, it would be great if we could get these things."
Cheng Wanwan was about to speak when he suddenly noticed a figure flashing past the door of the greenhouse.
She curved her lips and smiled: "Okay, after breakfast we will look for the treasure according to the treasure map. However, I just studied the treasure map and found that this route is somewhat familiar. It seems to be Linxi on the outskirts of Beijing. , I have been to this place twice, there is no treasure, this must be something the master of Duobao Pavilion painted to deceive the people."
Zhao Sidan said: "Mom, I didn't go on a special trip to look for treasures. Of course I didn't find anything unusual. Let's just go there to have fun."
"That's fine." Cheng Wanwan nodded, "Last time when Miss Ruan and I got lost, we entered a cave. At that time, we were joking about whether there were any secret rooms in the cave. This time, we will bring a few more people who know this to the cave. Look for it, if there really is a secret room, we will make a lot of money."
She and Sidan had a casual chat, and after a while, Mrs. Qi came to report: "Old Liu said he was going to inspect the reading pavilion, and he left in a hurry..."
Cheng Wanwan smiled softly.
Old Liu has tipped off the news, and the time for the former prince to take action may be moved forward a few days.
This kind of thing is most afraid of long nights and many dreams, so we should rebel early and solve it early.
