Royal daughter-in-law makes money
Chapter 99: Tricking the Emperor
Chapter 99
"My second brother has built a new mansion, and it is my duty to help him." The prince said with a smile.
Although I don't know what my brother is planning, it's not too much to help him build his new house.
"Father, look, the Crown Prince has already agreed. You won't be so stingy, right?" Chu Haojue looked at Chu Yuanming expectantly.
However, he just wouldn't tell anyone that a lot of gold and silver were found in his mansion.
"I still have to review memorials, why should I go?" Chu Yuan understood what Chu Haojue said.
"Father, An An has prepared a lot of good things. If you don't go, you will lose a lot." Chu Haojue thought, if you don't go, I will take those things for myself.
Oh, that’s not right. If the prince agreed to go, then he and the prince would split up.
"Do you think I'm like you, never having seen the world?" Chu Yuanming was unhappy. Was his son insulting him?
What are you lacking?
"Since Your Majesty is not going, then I will take the Crown Prince with me and divide those things between me and the Crown Prince. I hope Your Majesty has no objection." Chu Haojue's eyes lit up. Those things were worth at least one or two hundred thousand taels.
If I and the prince share it, will I be able to make a fortune?
"Get out of here!"
Chu Yuanming didn't realize that he had lost a large sum of money because of his impulsive behavior today.
"Okay, father, your son and I, the Crown Prince, will get out of here. Don't regret it. You promised to leave those things to your son and me." Chu Haojue said happily as he walked away.
"Send someone to follow them and see if they have any good stuff." Chu Yuanming felt as if he had been cheated after watching his two sons leave. He said to Eunuch Li beside him with some concern.
"Yes!" Eunuch Li quickly sent a young eunuch to follow behind the prince and Chu Haojue.
"Second brother, I wonder what good things my sister-in-law has prepared for us?" The prince asked curiously when he was halfway there.
"Your Highness, you will know when you go and see it. Don't worry, you won't suffer any loss." Chu Haojue didn't say anything, but just smiled and said to the prince, you will know when the time comes.
But he was still a little curious. When his father knew that there were so many gold, silver and jewelry there, would he still be as calm as he was just now?
"Okay, I'll go to your house and take a look. I heard that the queen's sister-in-law has prepared something called cement. I'm very curious." The prince said with a smile.
"I haven't seen that thing either, but it hasn't been used yet. Next time it's used, you can go and see it." Chu Haojue said.
"Then I'm really looking forward to it." He was really looking forward to it, not knowing whether he would be surprised or shocked.
"Crown Prince, you can't just take things and not do anything." Chu Haojue thought that since the Crown Prince was here, the person behind the scenes should be found out by the Crown Prince.
He can't just take the money and not do the work.
Besides, the prince already lives in the palace, and with the help of the crown princess and the queen, it would be more convenient for him to find that woman than for him to do it himself.
Qiao Anan was not familiar with the women in the palace, and his mother, Concubine Xian, was not someone who liked to interact with people.
"If there is anything that requires my help, I will naturally do my best to help." The prince thought for a while and said.
The carriage slowly arrived at the Second Prince's Mansion.
In fact, the Second Prince’s Mansion had been razed to the ground long ago, but the gate and courtyard wall were still preserved before the new district was built.
After Chu Haojue and the second prince got off the carriage, Qingyu and Nanqi just came back.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, greetings to His Royal Highness." The two men hurriedly bowed to the Crown Prince and the Second Prince.
There was excitement in both of their eyes.
"Okay, let's go in and talk first." Chu Haojue interrupted the two and said.
"Why do I feel like you are hiding something from me?" The prince was not stupid. When he saw the expressions of several people, he knew that something must be wrong.
"You'll know once you go in." Chu Haojue felt that the doorway was not a good place to talk.
The prince didn't say much and followed Chu Haojue into the prince's palace.
"Didn't they say they were rebuilding the mansion? Why is there no one here?" The prince thought to himself, could it be that the second prince is short of money? Is there no money to rebuild the mansion after the mansion was demolished?
"You'll know in a moment." Chu Haojue smiled mysteriously at the prince.
"So mysterious." The prince felt that the second prince was a little strange today, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
But he believed that Chu Haojue would not harm him.
After all, the eunuch behind him is the emperor's man. The eunuch is not just a eunuch, he is probably a eunuch with extraordinary skills.
When Chu Haojue led the person over, Qiao Anan was waiting there. She saw the prince coming, but did not see the emperor.
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
"This humble servant pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. May you live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years, a thousand thousand years."
Qiao Anan led everyone to pay their respects to the prince.
"Please stand up, sister-in-law. What difficulties have you encountered?" The prince thought, the reconstruction of the mansion has been stopped. Is it because of lack of money?
Then I thought that the Qiao family had sent a lot of silver to the palace recently, so I was afraid that they were really short of silver.
"Right now, there is indeed something that may require the help of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Qiao Anan thought about the secret room and the secret passage, and felt that this matter indeed required the Crown Prince's help.
I'm afraid my husband didn't say anything to the prince and just brought the person here.
I'm not afraid of frightening His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"You guys stay outside first, Qingyu and Nanqi come in together." Chu Haojue said as he led the prince into the secret room.
"What is this place?" The prince then discovered that there was a small hole behind Qiao An that could only accommodate one person.
"Your Highness, you might as well go in and take a look." Qiao Anan smiled but said nothing.
"If you don't come, my prince, those things will all be mine." Chu Haojue thought that the prince didn't dare to go in, so he said it deliberately.
The young eunuch sent by Eunuch Li looked at the cave entrance with some doubt.
"Your Highness, let me help you in." The little eunuch had to go in and take a look to see what was inside so that he could go back and report to the emperor.
Chu Haojue and the prince obviously did not avoid the little eunuch because they knew that the little eunuch was the emperor's eyes sent by him.
When the prince and the young eunuch entered the secret room, they were shocked by what they saw.
"Brother Crown Prince, father has said that we should divide these things between us, so we won't suffer any loss, right?" Chu Haojue said to the Crown Prince with a grin.
The young eunuch's eyes widened, thinking: Oh my goodness! How much silver does this cost?
"Second brother, what are these things about?" The prince asked quickly after being surprised.
"Your Highness, if I tell you that these are the private savings that my prince has hidden over the years, would you believe it?" Qiao Anan walked in and joked.
"The emperor's sister-in-law really loves to joke." The prince thought that if the second prince really had this idea, he would not have brought him here at this time.
They could just hide these things and say they belonged to the Qiao family, and they wouldn't suspect anything.
"These things may have been left by the original owner, or they may have been secretly placed here by someone," said Chu Haojue.
