It was still dark, and Guo Song was pacing back and forth in the cabin with his hands behind his hands. On his desk was a thick stack of lists. This was the wealth of the emperor's relatives and relatives that had been confiscated in one day and one night. There were forty-three households in total, all of which had been confiscated.
It was found that even Wang Yongtai's well-hidden wealth was accidentally discovered by Pei Xin during his patrol, which shows that it was God's will.
It must be said that Liu Feng's strategy was very vicious. If they hadn't started from within, they would never have been able to find out that there was something hidden in other counties.
Of course, Liu Feng's strategy is far from novel. In the end, they will definitely search from within and hang up these relatives one by one and torture them. If you don't believe it, they won't do it. It's just that Guo Song doesn't want to do this. This kind of thing will spread.
, will only be ridiculed by others, so asking their servants to report and expose it is indeed a clever trick.
However, Guo Song is now a little numb to the exploration of wealth. What he is most concerned about now is not these gold and silver jewelry, but the legendary jade seal stolen by Zhu Si, which is the legendary seal carved by Qin Dynasty Prime Minister Li Si with Heshi Bi.
National Jade Seal.
Before, Guo Song always thought that the Imperial Seal was taken to Chengdu by Li Shi, but later he found out that what Li Shi took away was not the Imperial Seal, but the Emperor's Seal, which was the seal of the Emperor used by Li Shi to issue orders, and Chuan
The national jade seal is only a symbolic jade seal and has no practicality.
However, after searching Zhu Si's imperial study and bedroom, no seal was found. Guo Song was almost certain that the seal fell into the hands of Wang Xianzhong. Wang Xianzhong was responsible for keeping various seals, but Wang Xianzhong was already dead.
Various seals were found in the study, but there was no imperial seal.
This really made Guo Song a little annoyed. What did this damn eunuch think of himself? He dared to hide the imperial seal. Isn't he afraid of implicating the nine tribes?
At this time, a soldier reported outside the cabin, "Your Highness, there is news from General Zhou. A secret room has been found in the palace. Please come into the palace!"
Guo Song was refreshed. Zhou Fei was worthy of being the leader of the scouts. He could find things that others could not see. He immediately ordered: "Ready my horse!"
...........
Not long after, Guo Song, surrounded by hundreds of personal guards, arrived at the Zhuque Hall of the Inner Palace. This was the court room of the Grand Chamberlain, where Wang Xianzhong handled internal affairs.
Zhou Fei came up to meet him, bowed and said: "Bizhi found a secret room in Wang Xianzhong's study. There are many things in it, but I don't dare to touch it. Please take a look at it, Your Highness!"
Guo Song nodded, "Lead the way!"
They came to Wang Xianzhong's study. Everything in the room had been moved out, and it seemed empty. There was still some blood on the ground. Guo Song saw at a glance that there was a bookshelf placed on the wall in the corner. This was the only piece of furniture in the room.
, placed there very abruptly.
Guo Song walked to the bookshelf. The wood was very good. It was made of precious sandalwood, which was later called Haihuang. Guo Song moved it a little, but the bookshelf did not move at all. It seemed that there was a mechanism behind it.
At this time, Guo Song found a thin long iron piece standing on the bookshelf, and asked with a smile: "There must be something here!"
Zhou Fei said quickly: "It's a hollowed-out bronze unicorn. It's placed on an iron piece. This is the mechanism. If we hadn't moved all the things away, we wouldn't have discovered this mechanism."
Guo Song pulled it lightly and heard a 'click!' sound. Zhou Fei immediately pushed the bookshelf away, but there was a white wall behind it and there was still nothing.
Ordinary people may not be able to see it, but Guo Song's eyesight is so powerful that he can see the color difference on the wall at a glance. He gently pushed the color difference, and a door was pushed open, and a secret room appeared in front of Guo Song.
The secret room was lit with lights and the area was not large, about ten square meters. There was a circle of tables placed against the wall with boxes of various sizes placed on them, but none of the soldiers had touched them.
Guo Song opened the first box, and inside was a phoenix crown. He picked it up and took a closer look. The main body of the phoenix crown was made of gold, and on the edge was a phoenix spreading its wings. It was exquisitely made, and every feather was lifelike, with inlays on it.
There are various extremely precious gems, and in the middle is a top-quality emerald the size of a red date.
Guo Song knew that this phoenix crown belonged to Li Shi's wife, Empress Wang. It was originally the phoenix crown of Empress Wang, the wife of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty. It was obtained by Zhu Si from the palace, and finally fell into the hands of Wang Xianzhong.
Guo Song took out all the items in the box one by one. They were all jewelry belonging to the queens of the Tang Dynasty. Each piece was priceless. They should have been put in a box and Wang Xianzhong stole the whole box. It seemed to be Wang Xianzhong's favorite thing.
That's why it was placed in a secret room.
There is also a bamboo basket in the corner, which is full of dry biscuits and water hyacinths, and there are even two toilets. Wang Xianzhong has thought carefully. It seems that he was originally planning to hide in it for a while.
But Guo Song searched the secret room and still couldn't find the imperial seal, which really made him deeply disappointed.
He pointed to the various jewelry on the table and said to the soldiers: "Pack them into boxes and send them to my ship."
Several soldiers nodded and immediately started to clean up.
Guo Song walked out of the secret room and said to Zhou Fei: "The two young eunuchs who disappeared after killing Wang Xianzhong must have taken something with them. They should be hiding in Luoyang City. We must find them!"
"Beizong understands that Beizhong has made full deployment and will definitely catch them."
After pondering for a moment, Guo Song added: "Go and notify Dugu Mingren and ask him to find a big ship to send all Zhu Si's important concubines to Chang'an, including Queen Xiao and her son."
"Follow the order!"
Zhou Fei hurried out, and Guo Song came to the harem. Not long after, soldiers brought the queen Xiao up. Xiao was so frightened that she knelt down trembling and said: "Concubine Xiao... meet Jin
Your Highness!"
Guo Song saw the fear in her heart and said calmly: "Don't worry too much, Zhu Si and I have no personal grudges, and his son is no threat to me. I will not kill his son, but I want to know, then
Is the child Zhu Si’s child? Tell the truth!”
Ms. Xiao lowered her head and was silent for a long time. She nodded slightly.
Guo Song asked again: "The jade seal that Zhu Si stole is missing. If it is with you, please hand it over. It will only bring disaster to you."
Mrs. Xiao whispered: "I only have a gold seal, which I have already handed over. I only have some jewelry around me and no other seals. Most of the seals are in the hands of Wang Xianzhong."
Guo Song looked at her for a moment and then said: "Tomorrow morning, you will take a boat to Chang'an. From now on, you will live in the Daming Palace, and the government will naturally support you."
Mrs. Xiao mustered up her courage and said, "I sincerely ask His Majesty the King of Jin to allow me to take my child back to my hometown. I am willing to raise my child as an ordinary civilian woman."
Guo Song shook his head, "Although I have no personal grudges with Zhu Si, Zhu Si has many enemies. They will never let Zhu Si's son go. They sent you to Daming Palace in Chang'an to protect your mother and son. If you are not afraid
Even if the child is torn into pieces, it doesn’t matter if he stays in Luoyang!”
Madam Xiao suddenly turned pale with fright, and said quickly: "I am willing to obey His Highness's arrangements!"
Guo Song asked the eunuch to send her back to clean up. At this time, an old eunuch led a very charming woman from a distance. Queen Xiao stopped and said to Guo Song: "This woman is a disaster for the country. Your Highness must not
Be charmed by it!"
Guo Song smiled and nodded, "Thank you for the reminder, go ahead!"
Queen Xiao walked away quickly. After a while, the eunuch led the charming woman to the main hall. The eunuch reported: "Your Highness, this is Concubine Liu Guifei!"
Guo Song has heard for a long time that Concubine Liu is extremely enchanting, and he would also like to meet her. Guo Song has his own bottom line when it comes to such things between men and women, but he is not a Puritan. If it suits his appetite, he has no intention of giving it a try.
Burden, as for Queen Xiao's worries, they are indeed over-worry.
Concubine Liu Guifei obviously put on makeup carefully. She believed in her own charm. As long as she was given a chance, she would definitely make the world-famous King Jin her maid.
Concubine Liu pretended not to stand still, staggered forward to the two of them, and weakly prostrated herself in front of Guo Song. She pressed her hands on Guo Song's thighs. She raised her head, looked at Guo Song with a pair of hot beautiful eyes, and said charmingly:
"The slave family pays homage to His Highness!"
Her voice was extremely charming, and her eyes were full of hints and teases. Guo Song lifted her chin, stared at her red lips for a while, and said with a faint smile: "I'll give you a chance to choose. Do you want to go to Chang'an Daming Palace or go home?"
"It is the slave family's honor to serve His Highness in the Daming Palace!"
Guo Song shook his head, "I don't live in Daming Palace, and you will never see me again for the rest of your life."
Concubine Liu's expression changed. She suddenly understood that King Jin was giving her a chance to be free. She immediately retracted her hand, the charming look in her eyes disappeared, and said without hesitation: "The slave family is willing to go home!"
Guo Song smiled slightly and said: "If you want to be free, you have to pay a price. You serve me well tonight, and I will give you freedom tomorrow!"
