Traveling through time and meeting fellow villagers, the secret code is right
Chapter 13 Secret Investigation
"Are you sure?" King Jin asked the five people in black without any emotion.
"Yes, sir. The second prince did put all the money he earned from the Ministry of Revenue and the treasures paid as tribute by the ministers in that cave." The man in black standing in the front answered.
"Anything else you found?"
"There is a man who often goes in and out of the cave. He is accompanied by more than a dozen guards every time he goes there. He sits in a carriage, and everything he brings with him is also in the carriage." The man in black answered
"Do you know who it is? Is it someone from Prince Han's palace?" Prince Jin narrowed his eyes.
"I have already checked. It is Chen Fei, the manager of a bank owned by King Han. People outside the country generally do not notice the relationship between this bank and King Han. King Han has cultivated some power outside over the years and has accumulated a lot of wealth." The man in black continued to answer questions.
"Got it. Keep observing and don't let anyone find you. Go down!" King Jin waved his hand, and those people filed out.
Pinching his forehead with his hand, King Han felt very unhappy.
There are six adult brothers. The eldest brother is the prince. The third brother is devoted to studying medicine and does not pursue worldly affairs. Although the fourth brother is ambitious, he is afraid of the power of the four brothers who are born of the same mother. He has never dared to make any moves. After all, his own strength is limited. By relying on the four brothers, he can be the Prince of Chu all his life. Since he cannot get the throne, he will of course be more obedient.
Needless to say, the fifth brother has loved a free and easy life since he was a child, and the constraints of the palace are a very painful thing for him.
As for himself, although everyone said that he was more capable than the prince, he was just tired of the darkness of the harem and the infighting in the officialdom, so he kept asking the emperor to allow him to go to the frontier to stay away from all these right and wrongs. He would rather do what he likes than be forced to be an emperor.
However, only my second brother is different...
Among the three mothers of the six brothers, his mother was the Imperial Concubine. Seeing his mother being submissive to the Queen made him hate her, not to mention that his uncle Chen Deying's family was also powerful. The Minister of Works was a good job. He was a capable man, and he didn't think he had to live in humiliation all the time. The title of King of Han could not satisfy his ambitions at all. So he had to fight. Although there was a huge gap in strength compared to the Queen's four sons, he still had to fight. If he didn't succeed, he would die.
The emperor had long noticed something was wrong between the imperial concubine and the king of Han, but he didn't want to hurt them because one was his favorite concubine and the other was his son. However, if he let it go, once he succeeded in seizing the throne, the queen's four sons, or even more, might get hurt. With a ratio of one to four, the king of Han naturally lost in the emperor's heart, so he summoned the king of Jin back to investigate the matter. Once it was confirmed, he would deal with it in time. Besides, it was also a father's selfish desire. The king of Jin had been away all the time, and it was rare for him to see him even if he missed him. Especially since they had not yet married, this made the emperor and queen very anxious. Otherwise, who would investigate this matter?
The King of Han hid all the gold and silver treasures outside the palace, perhaps to prepare for his usurpation of the throne in the future. However, the military forces of the whole country were in the hands of the King of Jin, and he really couldn't figure out what the King of Han would use to fight against the military forces in his hands.
Alas, after all, he is his own brother. The King of Jin really doesn't know how to tell the emperor what he has found out in the past few days. It seems that the friendship between brothers and younger brothers will change. Fortunately, the four brothers from the same mother get along well, especially the crown prince. He is very suitable to be a king. He will also be a good emperor. He has always loved his brothers and sisters. Especially in recent years, the crown prince's ability to handle state affairs has gradually shown the momentum of a future king.
As a younger brother, he would never agree to anyone overthrowing him and replacing him. Thinking of this, he had already made up his mind that he must report the truth to the emperor and let the emperor handle everything. He should not wait until the prince ascended the throne before bearing the crime of not tolerating the King of Han.
When the King of Jin was lost in thought, someone outside asked to see him.
"Come in, how about it? Which house should we enter from?" King Jin looked at Chi Ying who had just walked in.
"My Lord, Miss Xia has entered the Prince Qin's Mansion." Chi Ying replied
"What, from the Fifth Brother's house?" Prince Jin asked with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
"Yes, but we still don't know why she lives in Prince Qin's Mansion. I will go to check it out tomorrow!" Chi Ying didn't know why Prince Jin had asked him to follow Xia Mu until he saw her go back before reporting, but he still felt very responsible and wanted to investigate in detail.
"I also saw the Crown Princess's carriage outside Prince Qin's Mansion. I saw the Crown Princess leave shortly after Miss Xia went in. I wonder if she also knew Miss Xia. Have you checked this as well?" Chi Ying reported what he saw truthfully.
"I understand. Let's do it this way! You go down first." King Jin pinched his aching forehead again.
"Yes!" Chi Ying retreated silently without asking the question in his heart.
He knew that the King of Qin was always arrogant and unruly, and didn't pay much attention to etiquette. It wasn't strange to let a woman live in the King of Qin's mansion, but he was really curious about the relationship between Xia Mu and the King of Qin. In fact, he himself was also very curious about why he wanted to know all this, and he just followed his own thoughts willfully without thinking too much. If he wanted to know, he would check it out, that's all.
East Palace Prince's Mansion
"The Crown Prince has arrived!" A duck-voiced voice almost penetrated the entire courtyard where the Crown Princess lived on the east side of the East Palace.
When the Crown Princess heard that the Crown Prince was coming, she was extremely happy. You know, the Crown Prince had particularly disliked her since the incident three years ago and had been deliberately keeping his distance from her. He would come to her residence no more than twice a month, and every time he came, he would just come to see the children, talk to them, and leave after sitting for a short while.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is greeted respectfully by your servant." The Crown Princess and a group of eunuchs and palace maids all knelt on the ground.
The prince did not lend a hand to help her up, nor did he say anything, but went straight to the inner hall.
The Crown Princess suddenly remembered what happened yesterday when she went to the Prince of Qin's mansion. She wondered if the Crown Prince came for this matter, so she stood up and followed the Crown Prince into the inner hall.
"Do you know what mistake you made?" the prince asked sullenly.
"I don't know." The Crown Princess lowered her head.
"How could you not know? Which of the seven reasons for divorce did you commit? Jealousy! Do you know? Normally, you use your status as the Crown Princess to bully other sisters. For the sake of my son, I turned a blind eye. I didn't want to argue with you. Why are you bullying people outside the palace now?" The Crown Prince said with a gloomy face.
"I just heard that the prince has been going to the Prince of Qin's Palace recently, and got along very well with a girl in the palace, so I went to take a look. I didn't do anything!" She was about to cry as she said this.
Even her crying was so fake that the prince felt disgusted!
