There is Room For the Poor Daughter

Knowing that so many people were looking for gold mines from Daddy Cheap, Daohua felt a little uneasy in her heart. It happened that during this time, Xiao Yeyang and his two brothers had not returned to the house for several days, and they became more anxious in their hearts. .

It's also her fault that she didn't think carefully about the problem. She only thought about finding a gold mine and getting a reward. She never thought about how many people's interests would be involved in a gold mine.

The Jiang family, the most powerful relative in the dynasty, had one family and two queens; Duan Wang was the first emperor's favorite prince, and he was involved in secrets about the succession to the throne.

These forces are all the tyrants at the top of the food chain in this era. What they are staring at, their homes are still far away, so as not to become cannon fodder for their confrontation.

After figuring this out, Daohua became even more anxious to see Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao. After two days, when they didn't return, she sent Qin Xiaoliu to send a letter to Xiao Yeyang's mansion in the city.

But after two days of waiting, there was no accurate reply there.

Seeing this, Daohua couldn't sit still. After thinking about it, she quickly went to the old lady's yard. On the pretext of sending winter clothes and charcoal fire to Master and Granny Gu, she went to Taohua Village again.

After the previous falcon died, Xiao Yeyang put another one there, and the falcon could find Xiao Yeyang directly.

On the boat, because the weather was getting colder, Daohua didn't dare to stay on the deck for much longer. Just as she was about to return to the cabin, she saw three people covered in blood suddenly rushed out of the river bank.

"Ah~"

Wang Man'er couldn't hold back and screamed, "Girl, it's that Master Wu."

Daohua also recognized it. One of them was Lord Wu, who was with the fifth master last time. He was hesitating whether to save people or not. At this time, seven or eight men in black with swords in their hands rushed out from the shore.

"Isn't it?"

Is her luck too bad?

Daohua's face disappeared instantly, and unlike the hesitation before, she quickly said to Qin Xiaoliu: "Liu brother, pull the boat to the shore, remember, don't get too close, don't let people get on it. Come on board."

If there were only three of them, Master Wu, she could still pretend not to know and leave directly. Anyway, he was the official of the imperial court, and even if she didn't save her, she would at most be listed as an incompatible person and would not do anything drastic.

But now there are people in black with unknown identities. Those people in black dare to kill even the court officials. In order to avoid leaks, they will definitely kill people afterwards.

For the sake of her life, she had to help Master Wu and the three to deal with those men in black.

Qin Xiaoliu didn't hesitate, and hurriedly went to take the boat in person. The sweat on his forehead was the size of beans. Before running darts, they fought with people too often, but compared with those people on the shore who saw blood, they were really small. Play a little trouble.

Both parties on the shore found the boat in the river, but they couldn't move their hands now, and the boat was still some distance away from the shore, so they ignored it.

However, they ignored it, and the people on the boat did it.

"Bang bang bang!"

After the people on the river bank entered the range of the slingshot, Inaka kept firing pills to the bank one by one.

The man in black was very alert. The moment the pill was shot, he thought it was a hidden weapon, and they all avoided it. Then, when the pill exploded, the scent of the medicine filled the air, and he immediately closed his breath.

Wu Jingyi knew about the pill, so he quickly signaled his two subordinates to hold their breath, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart.

This move can't deal with Duan Wang's dead soldiers. Last time they would be hit, firstly because of carelessness, and secondly because Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai lowered their vigilance.

But these dead men are always on the edge of life and death, and they are even more cautious when fighting. I am afraid that the trick to stun them with a drug will not work.

Indeed, as Wu Jingyi thought, the people in black were not affected by the drug.

Seeing that the people on the boat dared to meddle in their business, the men in black immediately sent two people to kill the boat.

However, before taking a few steps, the two men in black stopped and grabbed their whole bodies with funny looks.

"What are you doing?"

The man in black roared angrily, and before he could finish his words, he also twitched, and the itch on his body made him unable to hold the sword in his hand.

"Damn!"

The man in black couldn't help but curse.

They thought it was a drug, they thought it would be fine if they closed their breath, but who knows, it wasn't at all.

Just as he was about to call his subordinates to retreat, Wu Jingyi and the three of them killed him.

On the boat, Daohua felt relieved when she saw that the man in black was caught, and quickly said to Qin Xiaoliu, "Let the boat go." After speaking, she entered the cabin without looking back.

In the cabin, Daohua was sitting by the window, watching the last man in black fall under the swords of Wu Jingyi and the three of them, and quickly lowered the curtain.

"Girl, have a cup of tea!"

Wang Man'er has followed her father to walk darts since she was a child. Although she has never seen such bloody things, her psychological quality has been practiced long ago. Apart from the initial panic, she quickly calmed down.

Seeing that Daohua's face was still pale, she cautiously stepped forward and poured her a cup of tea.

Daohua reached out to pick it up, but found that her hands were shaking so badly, she immediately retracted her hands, and said stiffly, "I don't drink it."

Wang Man'er put down the teacup silently.

After a while, Daohua asked, "Who are the people who came out today?"

Wang Man'er immediately reported the name of the person in the future.

Daohua clenched her hands tightly and was silent for a while: "Let Xiaoliu go and tell me that today's affairs have been forgotten. You are not allowed to say it. Whoever wants to say it will sell it directly."

Wang Man'er nodded: "Yes."

After a while, Peach Blossom Village arrived.

After getting off the boat, Daohua quickly ran up the mountain.

Gu Jian was tidying up the vegetable field in the yard. When he saw Daohua, he was overjoyed at first. Seeing that her face was pale, she immediately put down her hoe, walked over and asked, "What's wrong with you girl?"

Seeing Gu Jian, Daohua became calm, thinking that her master once knocked off a guard with a stick, so she couldn't help but tell what she had just encountered.

Gu Jian's face changed after hearing this. Seeing that Daohua was frightened, he immediately comforted him: "Girl, you did the right thing. Okay, it's alright. The weather has turned cold these days, and my sister has been coughing badly again. Help me go see her."

Daohua was distracted: "Is mother-in-law okay?"

Gu Jian: "I coughed for a long time last night, and I'm still sleeping with you. You came just in time. Go to the kitchen and cook the rock sugar and stew Sydney for my sister."

Daohua nodded, and first went to the room to see Granny Gu. Seeing that she was still asleep, she turned around and went to the kitchen.

Gu Jian saw Daohua entered the kitchen, and immediately walked out of Taohua Nunnery.

After Daohua made the rock candy Sydney and fed it to Granny Gu, Gu Jian returned with the three of Wu Jingyi.

Wu Jingyi had passed out due to the serious injury, and the other two were also seriously injured, so they were arranged by Gu Jian to stay in Xiao Yeyang's room.

"Master, why did you bring the three of them back?"

Looking at the apprentice with a worried look, Gu Jian smiled: "Don't worry, the teacher has wiped away the traces on the road, and no one will find it here."

Hearing this, Daohua breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Jian was a little amused when he saw her like this, and then he lamented the luck of the little apprentice: "If they hadn't met you this time, they would have died."

Daohua wondered, "Aren't they the emperor's spies, who would dare to kill them?"

Gu Jian sneered: "People in this world don't all listen to the emperor's words."

Royal Palace.

Renshou Palace.

The empress dowager looked at Duke Chengen in front of her with a livid face, and said sadly: "Brother is confused, can the Jiang family contaminate gold mines? Mining gold mines privately is a serious crime of looting the family and exterminating the family."

Chengen Gong frowned and said: "The queen mother calms down, I can't do it. You have seen the emperor's attitude towards the Jiang family over the years. That gold mine, I just want to prepare a way back for the Jiang family. "

The queen mother rubbed her swollen forehead: "Brother wants to leave a way for the Jiang family, I don't care, but it can't be a gold mine. There is no airtight wall in the world. Once the Jiang family's private mining of gold mines is revealed, it will be equivalent to The knife was handed directly to the emperor."

"As long as I'm still alive, the emperor will not dare to move the Jiang family for the sake of fame, but if the Jiang family does something disobedient, the civil and military forces of the whole dynasty cannot save the Jiang family."

Duke Chengen hesitated: "That's a gold mine. If the Jiang family can get it, it can preserve wealth for generations."

The empress dowager said sharply: "No matter how big the wealth is, you have to enjoy it!" After speaking, she paused, "How far has the gold mine happened?"

Duke Cheng: "I'm still looking for it, I'm only sure it's in the Ningmen Mansion."

The queen mother thought for a while: "I will go to see the emperor later and say that I have a gift for him, but the gift is not ready yet, and I will present it to him as soon as it is ready."

Cheng Engong knew what the Queen Mother meant, and was very reluctant to give up.

In order to find the gold mine, the Jiang family spent a lot of manpower and financial resources. After finding it, it had to be handed over to the emperor. Thinking about it, it felt like a panic.

Seeing him like this, the queen mother shook her head invisibly, and said patiently: "Now the treasury is empty, and the northern border is constantly fighting. If the Jiang family can help the emperor at this time, the emperor can not remember the Jiang family's feelings? Such a big deal. Thanks for the credit, how can the emperor still not award a reward? Don't just focus on the petty profits of the preface, and take a long-term view."
