Chapter 324 Hui Xin's Life Story
From a distance, the old national teacher's bald head had already appeared in front of Baili Yunhe.
He had already taken off his monk's robes and put on a navy blue brocade robe. The satin was smooth and shone in the sun, which made him look more noble.
If you ignore the bald head, he looks like an elder from a noble family.
When the old imperial master saw the boxes of silver being sent in, his face was a little shocked. You know, it is not easy for even the prince to take out one million taels of silver.
Baili Yunhe saw a little shock in his eyes, walked over, raised the corner of his lips and said: "Imperial Master, I have brought all the silver you asked for."
An Yunze was still in a daze.
He looked at the boxes filled with silver, and his heart was shocked at this moment.
Baili Yunhe's words just now were still echoing in his ears. He had never thought that the princess would pay such a high price for him.
Although An Yunxi took the initiative to ask him to leave Liangshan Temple and stay by her side as a bodyguard, the money given to him by the Prince of Hen's Mansion was already very much. He believed that with such treatment, she would definitely be able to find a better bodyguard.
Now, she actually took out one million taels of silver just to let him get away from the old national teacher and repay the other party for raising him.
Baili Yunhe saw An Yunze in a daze, raised his hand and patted his shoulder.
"Brother Yunze, what are you still standing there for? Go and take the Imperial Master to check and count the silver here to see if it's enough for one million taels."
It was impossible for him to put all the one million taels of silver into the box.
There were about twenty boxes in the yard. Each of these big boxes contained five thousand taels of silver, and it took several people to carry them together.
A total of one hundred thousand taels of silver.
As for the remaining nine hundred thousand taels, they were placed in the first box and given to the old Imperial Master in the form of banknotes.
When the old Imperial Master saw the silver, his eyes obviously changed and his breathing became a little faster.
He walked forward and took the initiative to open a box. The silver inside was neatly arranged. He picked up one and it was heavy, at least ten taels.
Five thousand taels, this box has at least five hundred ten-tael silver ingots.
He counted them carefully and checked them seriously.
Baili Yunhe was not in a hurry, so he asked people to prepare tables, chairs, benches, and tea sets, and drank tea while watching the other party count the silver. It
's too much
. The servants in the Imperial Master's Mansion have never seen so much silver in their lives.
You know, these hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are enough to be used as disaster relief silver for a city.
It's conceivable what kind of number it is.
When the Imperial Master led people to count all the silver, it was already completely dark.
The old Imperial Master had all the silver carefully sent to the warehouse of the Imperial Master's Mansion. When it was almost settled, he came out. On his old face, a sincere smile appeared.
Baili Yunhe raised his eyebrows and glanced at him lightly: "Is this silver enough, Imperial Master?"
"I believe that the Crown Prince has no problem with the silver."
"That's good."
After saying this, Baili Yunhe stood up directly.
He put down the fan he was holding, and said to An Yunze with his hands behind his back: "Brother Yunze, next, you should ask what you want to know."
When An Yunze heard this, his light-colored eyes became more brilliant at this time.
His heart suddenly became extremely excited at this time.
He pursed his thin lips, his snow-white eyelashes trembled slightly, and he stepped forward to follow Baili Yunhe's footsteps.
After receiving the silver, the old imperial teacher naturally did not dare to neglect the prince again, and he made a gesture of invitation.
"I neglected Your Highness before. Please come in."
Baili Yunhe raised the corners of his lips and said as he walked: "There is no need for you to be too polite, Imperial Master. After all, this is a deal between you and me. I hope that the Imperial Master will not violate the agreement."
"I am a monk and I don't tell lies. Naturally, I won't deceive Your Highness."
Baili Yunhe chuckled: "Haha, I don't believe a word of this!"
The old Imperial Master did not explain, but asked with a little curiosity: "Your Highness the Crown Prince has just returned. I wonder where this million taels of silver came from?"
Baili Yunhe turned his head and glanced at the old Imperial Master. "This is my business. There is no need to report it in detail to the Imperial Master."
"I am just a little curious. If Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't want to tell me, I won't tell you."
The old Imperial Master asked casually.
The three of them walked into the guest hall quickly.
The old national teacher ordered someone to prepare tea, but was rejected by Baili Yunhe. He immediately asked his men to guard the door and asked An Yunze to stand beside him.
"Let me get straight to the point. I have been delayed for too long today. Please answer now, national teacher."
The old national teacher found a chair and sat down, and said slowly: "Your Highness, please ask."
Baili Yunhe glanced at An Yunze and nodded to him. An Yunze walked forward, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of him, his voice hoarse and low.
"Master said before that he knew where my family was."
The old national teacher raised his hand and gently touched his beard: "I knew you wanted to ask this."
An Yunze's eyes were deeply dark: "Master, please tell me the truth, and don't deceive your disciples on this matter."
The old national teacher suddenly smiled, and his eyes were very kind.
"I found you in the back mountain. You were held in the mouth of a wolf, but it didn't eat you. I was curious at the time. I didn't expect you to be so lucky. I thought you shouldn't die, so I saved you and took you back to study carefully."
Now, the true face has been completely exposed in front of these two people, and the old national teacher is even too lazy to pretend.
Therefore, for the sake of the one million taels of silver, he decided to tell An Yunze's past truthfully.
He remembered that on the day he picked up Huixin, he had just killed someone and dug a pit in the back mountain to bury the bodies of the Southern Qi guards.
The Queen of Southern Qi died in childbirth, and he silenced several guards. The only pity was that he failed to find the Queen's newborn baby.
It was also by chance that he saw Huixin, who was conspicuous in pale clothes among the wolves at this time, and suspected that he was the prince, so he picked him up.
Later, he learned from a guard who escaped that the real prince had been hidden long ago. Only then did he give up the idea that Huixin was the prince, and raised him as an ominous person thrown out of the village.
Later, he went down the mountain to investigate and found that there was indeed a family surnamed Li in the village who threw a newborn child with problems on the river dam at the foot of the mountain, which was also where wolves often lived.
