Chapter 77 Which sister?
The fifth year of Xingyuan, early spring.
Nearly three years after his disappearance, the State of Qi announced the death of the fourth prince Qi Yu and was buried in the imperial mausoleum according to the etiquette. Because there were no bones, Qi Yu's clothes before his life were buried according to past practice. In addition, Emperor Qi ordered all the maids and palace members of Hanyu Palace to be buried with him. Because there was no burial system in the State of Qi, Qi The emperor's decision was opposed by many ministers, including Empress Dowager Renyu.
But I don't know why Emperor Qi seems to be extremely persistent about the burial, and no matter how much everyone opposes it, he is indifferent. When Qi Yu heard that Emperor Qi asked the palace maids to bury him, he suddenly realized that today's Emperor Qi was no longer the weak king of happiness in those years. He woven an extremely cruel net to tightly wrap himself tightly, although no one knew that the net was hanging the prey? Or himself.
Thirteen-year-old Qi Yu, dressed in white brocade, stood by the pond, and the spring breeze brushed the water and rippled, no longer looked like a few years ago.
"Such a big thing happened in Baoqing Pavilion, do you still have leisure to fish here?" Ye Xian, who was still in a cyan gown, squinted at the pool water and said, "If you hadn't forgotten your identity that day, I'm afraid I wouldn't have doubted you."
"Yes, I have finally found something over the years." Qi Yu said with a smile, "Wenqu, you are not only thoughtful and unrelinquent, but also smart enough to make people feel creepy."
"Is it?" Ye Xian smiled and said, "Seriously, your thoughts surprised me. You seem to have come from the distant world."
"Don't pity each other here. There should be nothing wrong with Baoqing Pavilion. Just go and settle it."
"I'm afraid I can't do it this time, because..." Ye Xian paused and continued, "Have you heard that the treasury lost 10 million taels of gold? Now Emperor Qi wants to make a lot of money. I'm afraid this Baoqing Pavilion can't escape this disaster.
"Don't be cheap and sell well. Isn't that what you want? Didn't you secretly transport 10 million taels of gold?
"Come on, I only accepted the treasury three months ago. At that time, there was really no problem with the inventory. Unexpectedly, I suddenly found that 10 million taels of gold was missing a few days ago. Don't you think it's strange, and Emperor Qi seems to have an idea of Baoqing Pavilion." Ye Xian said, "But in my opinion, this 10 million taels must not be stolen by Wu Jinsong, the financial department."
"Wu Jinsong has just sat in the position of prime minister. If he knows that 10 million taels are missing, he may desperately fill this hole, so these 10 million taels are either stolen by you, or these 10 million taels do not exist from the beginning."
"I think there is another possibility. Do you remember the miscarriage of Empress Renchen? It is said that Wu Jinsong once took 500,000 taels of gold to bribe the Empress, and then this matter was over. In fact, I have been thinking about why the Empress has taken such a step. Now it seems that her real purpose is not the 500,000 taels of gold. Ye Xian said, "Maybe at that time, Empress Renchen removed 10 million taels of gold from the treasury and tried to make the finance department temporarily misappropriate 500,000 taels of gold to save her life. In fact, her real purpose was to hope that Emperor Qi would investigate the treasury, and then Emperor Qi did order King Jinheng to investigate the treasury, but did not find any problems."
Hearing this, Qi Yu asked, "Then how did you find that 10 million taels of gold was missing?"
"If 10 million taels of gold turned into stone overnight, even a fool would find out."
"You have told Emperor Qi about this, so what is Emperor Qi going to do?"
Ye Xian said, "Is there any need to ask? The reason why Emperor Qi asked me to take charge of the treasury is entirely because of the Baoqing Pavilion behind me. Now that there is something wrong with the treasury, Emperor Qi must hope that I will give him the Baoqing Pavilion.
"Then give it to him." Qi Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said, "Maybe I should really thank the man who stole 10 million taels of gold. The good show is about to begin."
"Where is the palace owner? I don't seem to have seen him recently.
"I don't know what went wrong with that guy and ran to Feixue Villa."
"You've been fishing for a long time, why haven't you caught it yet?"
"Because my hook is straight." Qi Yu said, "Although I'm not Jiang Taigong, I still hope to catch a fish with a straight hook."
"This is impossible."
"Why? How do you know if you haven't tried? Do you believe it if I tell you that the dead can be reborn?
"Let's letter." Ye Xian said, "Do you know what is the saddest thing in the world?"
"My beloved leaves me."
"I can't end my life." Ye Xian said confusedly, "If there is no need to continue, but you have to live. Therefore, it's sad to be a human being.
"You can choose to commit suicide."
"That won't work. It's against the rules." Ye Xian said, "Since ancient times, those who want to unify the world have taken the road of imperial power, but you have to choose this business road, which is really unprecedented."
"In the final analysis, all wars are caused by money. No matter how much it costs, it must be a winner, because the winning party can get great wealth and power." Qi Yu said, "But in the final analysis, if a country wants to be strong, the most important thing is to study. Unfortunately, there has been no industrial revolution in the world."
"Industrial Revolution?"
"You won't understand, even if you are smarter." Qi Yu said.
"I have seen it in the book, and I believe that the world exists." Ye Xian said, "Maybe you are from that world."
"Haha, I'll think about whether I should cut your tongue."
"Then you'd better cut off my head before you cut off my tongue." Ye Xian said.
"I will refer to your suggestion."
Qi Yu put away the pre-fishing rod and sighed slightly: "It's still early. Why don't we go to Centennial House for a drink?"
"What to do in a hundred years? How about going to Juxia Tower? I heard that there is a new actor named Molan, who sings very well.
"I won't go."
"You will regret it if you don't go."
"I won't go even if I regret it."
"Then if I tell you that the actor has something to do with you, and you won't go?"
"Do you have anything to do with me?"
"Yes, it has a lot to do with you." Ye Xian said, "She is your sister."
"My sister? Which sister?"
"What do you think?"
Qi Yu was thinking about Ye Xian's words. Of course, he didn't think Ye Xian was joking, but after thinking about it, he didn't know which sister he was talking about.
