Allure of a Country Maiden

Chapter 168 Private gold mining

The three people gathered all the medicinal materials on the top of the mountain. The medicinal materials here are all available in Xiaoer's space, so she only asked for some seedlings, saying that she would take them back to plant, and the rest were given to the two Shangguan brothers.

This made Shangguan Xuanhao feel a little embarrassed.

"Girl, do you really don't want it? There are many precious medicinal materials in here, which are hard to buy even with money!"

Xiaoer shook her head, "No, I have a medicine mountain at home, and there are all kinds of seeds in it."

After hearing this, Shangguan Xuanhao's eyes widened: "What does it mean to have a seed?"

"You don't even understand what it means literally?" Xiaoer looked at Shangguan Xuanhao with an expression like "How stupid are you?"

Shangguan Xuanhao looked to Shangguan Xuanyi for answers.

Shangguan Xuanyi nodded.

"Oh my God! Then why did you bother to come up to Yaowang Mountain?!" You are really sick! But then again, would a person who can grow so many rare medicinal materials be a normal person?

"If you don't come up, I didn't know that my family has all the medicinal materials on this mountain!" Xiaoer asked Bai Tian and Tian Bai in her heart, what other treasures there are in Yaowang Mountain.

During the day: "There is a gold mine under the nearby abyss, but there are people mining it now. No one has come to mine it during the day."

Gold mine? Gold mines belong to the imperial court. Private mining of gold mines can result in loss of one's head at worst, or confiscation of one's family and genocide.

Wait, someone is mining now? What time is it now, midnight! If you don’t come during the day and only come at night, you can’t really have someone illegally mining gold.

Xiaoer glanced at the two people around her and wanted to know if they were illegally mining gold. She would find out if she took the two people in that direction.

Indirectly speaking, this can be regarded as his family's private property.

If it was really private gold mining, it would be considered a favor to the court.

I had heard before that the imperial court's treasury was empty due to successive disasters in the past two years. If a new gold mine was discovered, it would alleviate a lot of urgent needs.

Anyway, in such a feudal autocratic dynasty, the more you do something for the court, the more diamond shields your family will have!

Xiaoer intentionally or unintentionally bypassed the dangerous place and walked in the direction of the gold mine.

"Down there is where the gold mine is."

"I heard that there are usually more precious medicinal materials on the cliffs and at the bottom of the cliffs. How about we go down and have a look. Does the Fourth Prince know the way down?"

The fourth prince shook his head, "I've never been there, but you can just hang down with a rope."

Shangguan Xuanyi feels that these two people are lawless together! At what time now, forget about going up the mountain and plan to go down the cliff!

He went crazy with them because he was crazy!

"It's okay to go, I'll go during the day tomorrow! What time is it now!"

Judging from the two people's reactions, Xiaoer probably didn't know there was a gold mine below.

Then he continued walking down, planning to get closer to the gold mine so that the two of them would notice something strange.

"Girl, what path are you taking? If you're walking this way, when will you be able to get out!" The fourth prince felt that Xiao'er was completely lost.

"I have a natural instinct for treasures. Wherever there are treasures, I will go there!"

Shangguan Xuanhao felt that she was trying to be tough and didn't want to admit that he was lost.

"Shh!" Shangguan Xuanyi signaled the two of them to be silent. He seemed to see a torch flashing below.

The two looked at him:?

"There's someone down there."

There are actually people with similar ideas!

"Let's go down and have a look." Shangguan Xuanhao said excitedly.

Finally found it! It seems like private gold mining, Xiaoer thought to herself.

"Let's be careful and don't let the people below discover us." Xiaoer reminded.

Neither of them had objections.

The way down was not easy, but they didn't have to go to the bottom before they heard voices.

They probably thought that there would be no one in the deep mountains and wild mountains in the middle of the night, so they spoke a bit loudly.

Maybe it was the silence, maybe it was because they were in the valley, and they heard a little echo.

"Oh my God, if all these golds are released, it will be really rich!"

"Keep your voice down! It's not yours. If it ruins the master's important matter, your whole family will not be able to survive."

"Who will appear here at this time!" Although he said this, his voice was obviously less.

Then Xiaoer and the other three couldn't hear anyone's voice.

But that's enough.

Shangguan Xuanyi pointed upward and motioned for the two of them to go back.

After walking carefully for a long enough distance, the three of them unconsciously walked faster and faster.

When the three of them returned to the inn, it was almost dawn.

"Girl, pack your bags, let's go back to the city immediately." Although Shangguan Xuanyi was heartbroken that Xiaoer had to walk on the mountain road all night and had to rush on without rest.

But this matter is too big. If they go to Yaowang Mountain tonight, there is no guarantee that no one will know about it.

Xiaoer nodded, she naturally knew the priorities of the matter.

The three of them hurried back to the imperial capital city.

Shangguan Xuanyi sent Xiaoer back to Shengpinghou Mansion before returning to the palace.

When Xiaoer got home, she got off the carriage and went directly to the yard where Mrs. Liu was.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard voices inside.

"I can't agree to this." Shen Chengyao said firmly.

"You have to agree even if you don't agree. I've already agreed with them." Shen Zhuang's annoying voice sounded.

"Whoever agrees can marry his daughter." Ms. Liu said angrily.

"How can that be possible? How can my Yuzhu marry? He is a paraplegic. Yuzhu has been delicate and precious since he was a child, but he can't wait for her!"

"My Xiao'er is the emperor's personal title to the county master. Isn't it more valuable than jade beads and gold?"

Xiaoer frowned, when did Shen Zhuang come back? When I came back, there was another fuss about Yao'ezi!

"How can that money-losing guy compare with Yuzhu! She has never done anything like washing and cooking, going up mountains and rivers, watering vegetables and going to the fields since she was a child? Let her get married and have good food and a good place to live. What's wrong with just waiting on someone? , I’m doing this for her own good!”

"Damn it! You can insult the county boss too!" Aunt Rong scolded.

"Mommy said that well!" Xiaoer applauded as she walked in. "Mommy, tell her, what is the crime for insulting the county lord?"

"Yes!" Nanny Rong replied with one word, and then she quickly stepped forward and slapped Shen Zhuang's mouth.

Use practical actions to tell Mr. Shen Zhuang what crime should be committed if you commit the following!

Shen Zhuang's face immediately became red and swollen, and her bun was messed up.

"What a disgrace! How dare you, a little slave, beat me! Come here! Come here! Drag this slave out and beat him to death!" Mrs. Shen Zhuang shouted, excited. All the pearls and hairpins fell to the ground.

Aunt Rong walked back behind Xiaoer and Liu gracefully, her expression unchanged at all, as if nothing had happened.

None of the servants standing inside and outside the room dared to move, including Xuemei who served Shen Zhuang.

"Xuemei, go and call me back!" Seeing that no one paid attention to her words, Shen Zhuang called her out by name.

Xuemei lowered her head and didn't move at all, as if she didn't hear it!

Xiaoer sneered in her heart. After a few days with servants serving her, did she really think she was an old lady? ! That posture is even more like an old lady than an old lady!
