Chapter 164 Does Shen Huai know what Qi Jing did?
"Do you think Qi Jing has a mental problem? The entire Northern Qi will belong to him in the future, so why would he bother to rob the soldiers' military pay? Without their protection, does he think he can sit firmly on the throne?"
"And don't you think it's strange that he didn't use the money he robbed, and he kept plundering money and putting it in his own palace. Why did he do this?"
Gu Yanchen also couldn't understand Qi Jing's actions, and said while driving.
"Let's not talk about what he did with so much money. I'm afraid no one would find out that he had a secret vault in the palace.
If we hadn't accidentally seen it when we came to rescue big brother, we probably wouldn't have discovered it. ”
Ran Qingxuan's attention was elsewhere. He scratched his hair in confusion.
"Qi Jing placed the treasury in the palace, and there were three Gu breeders underground. There was no way those people didn't know about the huge amount of money. Why don't you think they took it?"
Gu Yanchen smiled helplessly and reached out to rub the top of Ran Qingxuan's head.
"You seem quite smart usually, how come you become stupid after seeing so much money?"
An Si watched the interaction between his master and his wife, and simply closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep in the back seat of the car.
Ran Qingxuan chuckled and wanted to laugh when he thought about the hundreds of boxes in the space.
“The master and grandmaster those people mentioned are most likely Blue Rain people. Since Qi Jing dared to collude with Blue Rain people, the benefits he promised them must be great.
Besides, so much money would not be put in casually, it would definitely be registered. If something was missing, those three people would definitely be held accountable. After all, they were the only three people who stayed with the money day and night.
Besides, everyone knew that Taicang Palace was Qi Jing's territory. Even if those who were transporting the silver had bad intentions, they would not dare to try it easily. After all, those who were discovered transporting the silver would be held responsible! ”
Thinking of the three people he brought out, Ran Qingxuan immediately said: "Those three people must have stayed down there for quite a while. After the Divine Doctors treat Tang Ciyun, we will release them for interrogation.
After all, they said that Qi Jingrang's ability to make Gu was useful, so he would definitely use it to harm people. Since he dared to collude with the Blue Rain people, there must be financial transactions involved.
We have arranged for Qi Jing to take these three people away. There will definitely be a dispute between him and the Blue Rain people. If we can find out who the Blue Rain people who are colluding with him are and what their plans are, at least we can take precautions against it and not be unaware of it when it happens! ”
This was what Gu Yanchen had originally planned. Those three people must know a lot. If he hadn't been afraid that something might happen if they stayed there for too long, he might have interrogated them on the spot.
"No matter what the reason was for him to collude with the Blue Rain people, from the moment he decided to do so, he was destined to no longer be a qualified king. Unfortunately, my current identity is just a prisoner who was confiscated and exiled. I can't do anything to change it."
A trace of pity flashed across Gu Yanchen's face, and then he returned to normal.
Ran Qingxuan knew very well that Gu Yanchen still cared about the people of Northern Qi, but the Gu family had fought to defend their country all their lives, but in the end, this was the result they got.
"You don't need to blame yourself. It was the Northern Qi Emperor who confiscated the Gu family and exiled them. If we can't change it, then we can change our own current situation. Now that we have found our eldest brother, I believe that one day we will be able to find our third and fourth brothers as well."
"From now on, we will just be ordinary people. We don't know what the country will become, but God will definitely not favor a bad person!"
Everyone knew that Northern Qi’s enemy was the sinister and cunning Blue Rain people, but the future king of a country actually colluded with them and even had people produce a large number of poisonous insects.
She didn't know who it was used on, but Qi Jing's action was already considered treason.
Thinking of the description of Qi Jing's ending in the book, Ran Qingxuan felt very happy, but there were some things she couldn't tell Gu Yanchen directly and could only comfort him silently.
But with Ran Qingxuan's words, Gu Yanchen gradually got rid of that feeling of powerlessness.
He looked forward, reached out and gently pulled the person beside him.
"You always make me relax immediately. With you around, I believe our family will definitely get better and better."
Without waiting for a response, he glanced at Ran Qingxuan's face and saw that she looked worried, so he asked worriedly, "Did my words put too much pressure on you?"
Ran Qingxuan shook his head and said, "No, I just thought of something."
Since Qi Jing needed a large number of poisonous insects, they were definitely not used for charity. The original owner's grandfather was still assisting Qi Jing. Ran Qingxuan felt that Shen Huai had indeed lived up to her original words.
Blind eyes, blind heart!
However, the Chen Huai in the original owner's memory was an upright person. If he knew what Qi Jing had done, he would definitely not choose to continue to assist him.
Thinking of this, Ran Qingxuan couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"You can tell me anything. It doesn't make sense for you to always be the one to comfort me..."
Ran Qingxuan fooled his mind and forced a smile.
"Tell me, does my grandpa know what Qi Jing did?"
Only then did Gu Yanchen realize that Ran Qingxuan was worried about this matter, and he paused before speaking.
"Qi Jing and I were born on the same day. Master Shen also taught me when he was studying with me. Based on my understanding of Master Shen, if he knew that Qi Jing was colluding with the Blue Rain people, he would definitely not watch and let him do whatever he wanted."
"But he is just a tutor. At best, he is a higher official than others. But even higher officials are appointed by the emperor. How can he check and balance the future monarch?"
After hearing this, Gu Yanchen felt it necessary to explain.
"There are some things you may not know. When the Empress Dowager was pregnant, she prayed for blessings in the nunnery with the women in the capital. Because she gave birth suddenly and there was no wet nurse around, your great-grandmother helped to feed the baby until she returned to the capital.
Later, the Grand Empress Dowager would often invite your great-grandmother to the palace to talk. As time went by, the relationship between the Grand Emperor and Grand Tutor Shen was not like that of brothers, but better than that of brothers. ”
"Later, Master Shen passed the imperial examination and became an official in the imperial court. He assisted two generations of emperors in a row. Before the death of the emperor, he issued an imperial decree, which roughly meant that if Master Shen believed that the person assisting him was immoral, he would assist a more capable person to succeed to the throne."
"What?"
Ran Qingxuan was shocked. He didn't expect that this cheap grandfather had such great power.
"The Emperor also has great confidence in Master Shen's ability and character, and knows how to make Northern Qi last forever."
But when Ran Qingxuan thought about it carefully, he felt a little uncomfortable.
"But if he really wanted Northern Qi to last forever, he wouldn't have allowed Emperor Mingde to confiscate the Gu family's property and exile them!"
Gu Yanchen took a deep breath and felt that Ran Qingxuan shouldn’t think about these questions.
"Perhaps Master Shen had his own considerations or difficulties. Perhaps the incident happened suddenly and Master Shen did not expect the emperor's actions."
Indeed, Emperor Mingde did the whole thing of confiscating the Gu family's property and exiling them without Chen Huai's knowledge, because he knew that once Chen Huai knew of his decision, he would definitely not just sit there and do nothing.
