Chapter 425;

Speculation

"There is another news. I heard that Southern Xinjiang has sent envoys and they have entered Dongzhou territory."

When he said this, King Jin looked very unhappy.

Seeing this, Lu Yaoyao raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "It seems that you know what the Han family is doing behind the scenes?"

"They deserve to die."

"really."

Lu Yaoyao nodded in disbelief.

"You don't seem worried?"

King Jin asked again.

"Our Majesty, although he lacks courage, he is not stupid. He knows better than anyone how much influence I have on Dongzhou."

"I dare not say it in the future, but for now, he will never let me leave Dongzhou."

Lu Yaoyao smiled and continued, "Besides, it's not up to him to decide whether I leave or not."

When she said this, there was a hint of domineering in her tone.

Such a tone made Prince Jin feel inexplicably at ease, and he also had a smile on his face.

"That's what I proposed that night."

"Some things are not as simple as you think."

It is undeniable that Lu Yaoyao was a little tempted that night, but later, she still felt that it was inappropriate to do so.

No matter how you feel, you are forcing yourself and taking advantage of King Jin at the same time.

She still likes the feeling of coming together sincerely rather than with a purpose.

"You're quite nice. I won't hide it from you. For a moment, I did think about agreeing to your proposal."

"However, after I thought about it later, I thought it wouldn't work."

"Why not?"

King Jin was a little anxious.

"I have said before that your identity is a trouble for me."

"I believe you also saw the attitude of the Queen and His Majesty when you asked for marriage on the night of the New Year's Eve banquet, right?"

King Jin naturally knew about this.

"As long as you want, they can't stop it."

"Yes, but I don't want to start a family so early yet. Firstly, I'm still too young. Secondly, you can see that my Chengyuan Villa has just begun and needs a lot of construction. I still have some things to pursue."

She really couldn't accept getting married at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

Moreover, she still needs to build the Chengyuan Villa. If she agrees to Prince Jin, and there are a lot of troubles in the royal family, will it be as comfortable as it is now?

"These are not problems. I can wait, or I can build Chengyuan Villa with you."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao looked at him steadily for a while and then said, "I understand what you mean. To be honest, you are pretty good, but some things are not simple."

"What's up?"

Lu Yaoyao remained silent.

King Jin is indeed good, and it is not impossible to choose him, but there is still a problem.

"Did you know that soon after the New Year's Eve banquet, the Queen made arrangements for people to go to Jiangdong."

"Yes, I know, I have also arranged for someone to go there."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao was startled and very surprised.

"I just want to see what they plan to do?"

"I have some guesses."

Lu Yaoyao paused when he said this.

"Some time ago, I accidentally learned that Your Majesty and Eunuch Wang De know my mother."

"Huh? Is there anything else?"

But soon King Jin remembered something and said, "Your Majesty went to Jiangdong to escape for a while before he got the throne."

"Then what does this have to do with you?"

"I am not Xu Zhao's biological daughter."

Rumble.

King Jin trembled all over, his eyes suddenly widened, and a terrible thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

"I have verified this matter. My mother had me first, and then she married Xu Zhao."

"Impossible, how is it possible?"

"I don't want this to be the case, but the Queen and Your Majesty have arranged for people to go over and investigate. If, I mean, if it is as guessed, what will you and I do?"

At this time, King Jin was silent, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

"That's why you refused."

Lu Yaoyao didn't nod, but he didn't deny it either.

As she said, if the guess is true, then King Jin is her uncle.

"I have a secret too."

"I know."

Lu Yaoyao smiled.

Upon hearing this, King Jin's eyes suddenly shrank, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"But can you tell this secret? Even if you can tell it, what will be the consequences? Have you ever thought about it?"

"Even if there are no earth-shattering consequences in the end, you are still the King of Jin."

Prince Jin, who was still a little skeptical at first, believed in his heart that she really knew his biggest secret when he heard her say such words.

For a moment, he was at a loss, no, to be precise, he was a little desperate.

God really knows how to play tricks on people.

Finally, he smiled bitterly, stood up in despair, turned around and walked out.

Today's news was a huge blow to him, and he needed to take it easy.

Seeing him like this, Lu Yaoyao could only sigh, and when he was about to go out, he said, "If the result is not what I expected, I will promise you."

Prince Jin paused and turned to look at her, a glimmer of hope rising in his eyes.

"However, as I said just now, I am still young, and I still need to build Chengyuan Villa."

"Well, I can wait."

After leaving the villa and returning to the palace, King Jin immediately asked Yan Yi to send some men to Jiangdong.

Time passed by so little by little, and with the beginning of spring, the temperature quickly began to warm up.

The construction work in Chengyuan Villa is in full swing again.

The number of brick kilns and kilns that burn paper and cement has increased by three each.

The construction of Chengyuan Villa is indispensable for these things.

At the same time, she also opened three more kilns, one for firing glass and the other two for ceramic tiles.

As the golden finger reaches level 3, it is much easier to master these skills quickly than before. In the past, she had to explore and try on her own, but now with fusion, after using it, she can reach the master level.

There is no need for her to figure out and research at all, which greatly improves efficiency.

In addition to adding more kilns, she also took people to look at the mountains behind the villa.

With the development of the villa, her house in the center of the villa will definitely be demolished in the future, so before that, she thought about finding a place on the mountain behind to build a mountain villa or something.

No, after wandering around for three or four days, she really found a good place.

"I never thought that after living here for so many years, we didn't even know there was a hot spring hidden here."

Lu Yaoyao was very excited when she discovered the hot spring.

Afterwards, she began to wander around the hot springs.

After some measurements and mental simulations, the location for her mid-level villa was decided.

But building a house here requires a lot of work.

No, after making the decision, she can let Lao Kang recruit workers. The workload is not small, so there is nothing to worry about. She has money and materials, so she can do it slowly.

In addition to the construction of her own villa, she also went to the iron-making workshop built by Emperor Hongwen.

We also took out the furnaces needed for iron smelting over there.
