Chapter 416 Fooling again

 Uncle Huang left Beijing and came to Zhongzhou to look for gold mines?

I really don’t know this Xiao Yeyang.

Seeing Xiao Yeyang's confused face, Daohua got up and ran to her room. After a while, she came back with a brocade box: "Do you know this?"

Xiao Yeyang took the wilted weed in Daohua's hand, shook his head, and said uncertainly: "Is this... a medicinal herb?"

Daohua nodded: "This grass is called Jingcao, and it is a medicinal herb. However, it also has another little-known effect."

Xiao Yeyang's expression changed: "Jingcao, do you think this is called Jingcao?"

It seems that Chiang Kai-shek asked him before that he knew where to buy Jingcao, saying that it was used to prepare medicine for cousin Wanying.

Daohua nodded: "Why, do you know Jingcao?"

Xiao Yeyang: "I heard it mentioned before. You said it has another function. What is it?"

Daohua smiled and said: "Jingcao usually grows around gold mines. Its other function is to explore for gold mines."

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang stood up suddenly, his eyes widened and said: "Gold mine? Are you sure?"

Seeing the peanuts she just picked up scattered all over the floor, Daohua was a little dissatisfied: "Why are you so excited?"

Xiao Yeyang quickly squatted down, straightened Daohua with both hands, and asked her to look at him: "Daohua, are you sure you can find gold mines through Jingcao? This matter is very important, so don't talk nonsense."

Daohua wanted to break free, but seeing the serious look on Xiao Yeyang's face, she stopped again and nodded seriously: "I have indeed seen this statement in the storybook. I was not very sure before. It can be seen that

After meeting Wu Ye and those people, I think it is true, and the gold mine may be in Ningmen Mansion."

Xiao Yeyang let go of the rice flowers and stood up, his brows twisted into a knot and his expression changed uncertainly.

Uncle Huang personally came out of Beijing to investigate. The gold mine story should be true.

However, the Jiang family is also looking for wattle grass, so do they know that wattle grass grows near the gold mine?

Thinking of the news from people below during this period, it was said that the Jiang family sent several waves of people to run around the boundaries of Ningmen Mansion, looking for something.

Xiao Yeyang narrowed his eyes slightly and felt a little nervous.

The Jiang family is looking for gold?!!!

And it was done in private and secretly.

What are they going to do?

Don’t they know that this is a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the clan?

The Jiang family can be said to be the most noble family in the capital. The queen mother and queen are all from the Jiang family. Duke Cheng'en and the prince are also in high positions. What else are they dissatisfied with?

Xiao Yeyang pursed his lips into a slit. This matter was too big and he had to inform Uncle Huang immediately.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Seeing Xiao Yeyang lifting his legs and walking out, Daohua quickly called people to stop.

Xiao Yeyang paused, looked back at Daohua, then at his mother-in-law Gu and Master Gu who looked at him with concern, and said with a smile: "I have to inform Uncle Huang about the gold mine."

Daohua quickly stood up holding the peanuts, put them on the plate on the table, and then looked at Xiao Yeyang with bright eyes: "Xiao Yeyang, let me ask you, if I help find a gold mine, what will your Majesty do?"

Will you make me the county leader?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang was stunned: "...County Lord?"

Daohua was a little anxious: "Why, can't you?" She said, snorting coldly, "Sure enough, the fifth master and those people didn't say a word of truth, which made me happy in vain."

Hearing the young apprentice's tone, Gu Jian looked over quickly: "Why, do you really think you can find a gold mine?"

Daohua raised her chin: "I have always had good luck. I think if I am determined to look for it, I will definitely be able to find it."

Gu Jian was a little speechless: "Ningmen Mansion is so big, do you think you can step into a gold mine when you go out?" Xiao Wu sent so many people to look for it but couldn't find it. How could she, a little girl, find it?

Daohua was silent for a moment: "You can't say anything in this world. What if I'm a blind cat and encounter a dead rat?" After saying that, she looked at Xiao Yeyang and asked expectantly: "Can you help me ask?

?"

Xiao Yeyang thought for a moment and then readily agreed.

He didn't count on the luck that Daohua mentioned, but didn't he still have him?

He will send people to look for it later, and if he finds it, he will give the credit to Daohua. In addition to the glass prescription last time, the emperor's uncle will not be stingy with the position of county head.

If Daohua can really become the county lord, it will be a good thing for her and him.

Daohua immediately urged: "Then write a letter quickly. After writing the letter, we can discuss how to find it. If we find the gold mine as soon as possible, the emperor's reward will arrive sooner."

She really looks forward to this reward.

In this era of strict hierarchy, having a noble status makes it much more convenient no matter what you do, and you also have relatively more choices and voice.

In this way, she can also gain more freedom for herself.

Seeing that his apprentice looked like he already had the gold mine in his pocket, Gu Jian rolled his eyes and asked, "Why didn't you help find it when Mr. Wu and the others were here?"

Daohua: "I don't believe them. If I really find a gold mine, what if they take the credit for themselves?

Telling Xiao Yeyang is different. Even if the emperor is stingy, she will not get a reward and the credit will not fall on outsiders.

Seeing what Gu Jian wanted to say, Daohua was the first to say: "Master, I know that you and your mother-in-law are old friends with them, but you haven't seen each other for many years. Who knows if they have changed? As the saying goes, you know people but don't know their hearts.

Of course I have to be on guard."

"Old friends?" Xiao Yeyang looked at Gu Jian and Granny Gu in surprise, "Who are Granny and Master Gu?"

Gu Jian moved his lips and was about to say something, but Daohua beat him to it again: "And what about the Fifth Master?"

Xiao Yeyang's expression suddenly became strange, and he looked at Gu Jian and Granny Gu with suspicion, with inquiry in his eyes: "Are you an old friend of the Fifth Master?"

Gu Jian immediately snorted: "Why, it can't be done?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head: "It's not impossible, it's just..." It's impossible. How could Uncle Huang know two old people from the countryside?

Seeing the doubts in her grandson's eyes growing more and more, Granny Gu had no choice but to speak: "Once Xiao Wu was injured, Xiao Jian saved him."

Xiao Yeyang's eyes flashed, but he didn't completely believe it: "Where? When did it happen?"

Gu Jian immediately darkened his face: "Where are you interrogating the prisoner?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head quickly: "I didn't mean that, I was just a little confused."

Granny Gu smiled: "That was more than ten years ago. Xiaojian heard that there was a Xinglin sage in the capital, so he took me to the capital. Unexpectedly, on the way there, we met the injured Xiaowu.

That’s how we got to know each other.”

Daohua's brows were filled with confusion: "Then why didn't you tell me when I asked before?"

Grandma Gu continued to smile and said: "It happened many years ago, there is nothing to say."

Daohua frowned. She had nothing to say to her, but it was easy to say to Xiao Yeyang?

Xiao Yeyang looked at Gu Jian and Granny Gu, and saw that their expressions were the same. His doubts were slightly relieved, but was this too much of a coincidence? Then he probed: "Then do you know the identity of the fifth master?"

Gu Jian said angrily: "Of course I know."

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang's heart suddenly tightened, but he relaxed again after hearing the words.

Gu Jian: "Isn't he an official who handles secret matters for the emperor? Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so seriously injured when we met him."

Xiao Yeyang pondered. More than ten years ago, Uncle Huang was seriously injured when he went out. However, he was still young at that time and could only vaguely remember such an incident.

Thinking of Master Gu's excellent medical skills, the inquiry in Xiao Yeyang's eyes gradually dissipated.

Daohua stood aside and listened with her chin clenched. Seeing that Xiao Yeyang was not asking, she thought to herself that what the master said must be true. Those fifth masters were probably the emperor's spies who specially worked for the emperor.<

/p>

"Go write a letter quickly."

Immediately, Xiao Yeyang turned around to write a letter, and Daohua quickly followed.

Seeing the two children leaving the house, Gu Jian and Granny Gu exhaled in unison without asking further questions.

I have two smart kids at home, and it’s also very hard on my brain.
