Qi Yihan looked at Li Maner's silly look and pursed his lips slightly.
"Not many people know about this matter, and not everyone in the Xiao family knows about it." Qi Yihan said, "Do you know why?"
Li Man'er didn't even think about it, "This is not simple. Money moves people's hearts. People's hearts are the least able to stand the test. It's not uncommon for brothers to be beaten to death in order to fight for family property. Although the Xiao family is not
It's a mess, but it should be about the same. Everyone has their own thoughts, and they must be playing their own tricks."
Qi Yihan nodded, "The words are rough but the reasoning is not rough."
Li Maner rolled her eyes secretly, thank you!
"The prince came today to persuade me to follow the Xiao family into the mountains."
"good."
Li Man'er was so angry that her hair was about to explode, "I won't go!" She looked as if she wanted to give up, and complained in a low voice: "There is no one like you, the prince! You are a nobleman of the emperor and heaven, and you have a noble status, so you can tell the truth.
, but after all, you can’t just catch a donkey and fight for it? I will treat your injuries, suppress the Gu Insect King in your body, and will help you take out the Gu Insect King in the future, but there is no reason to take it with you when you go to the mountains to die.
Do you want to fuck me? You old man, please do me a favor and change the direction of the donkey?"
Ah Qi, who was standing outside the house, was holding back her laughter and almost got internal injuries!
He had never seen such a wonderful person as Miss Li, who actually described herself as a donkey.
"No wonder you have a bad reputation in the capital, and you speak too carelessly. How can you say that you are a donkey? Then you are not an animal?"
Li Man'er sneered, "I really feel that I am no different from an animal. Think about it carefully, since I was unlucky enough to meet you, have I ever lived a comfortable life? I won the bet and finally broke off the engagement. The twists and turns involved
Don’t you need me to tell you? My daughter treated you, but she offended Princess Wuyou and almost lost her life. Is my boudoir a hindrance to the prince? I can come and leave whenever I want.
Walk!"
In order to suppress the poisonous poison and ensure that it would not attack when going out, Qi Yihan went to her boudoir every night and took off her shirt to perform acupuncture. She did not have any needle holes and her resistance was surprisingly good.
"I've come to Mobei, and you still won't let me go. It's okay to come uninvited. My daughter is a doctor, so I don't care about that. But you asked me to follow the Xiao family into the mountains, and you made it clear that you wanted to
My dear, I am not that stupid, I won’t go."
Qi Yihan saw that she looked like a hairy hedgehog, and the corners of his lips could not help but curl up slightly. In the whole capital, oh no, in the whole world, there was probably no other person who compared himself to a donkey or an animal except Li Man'er.
"Do you know about the Uzbek people?"
"I've heard a little bit about it from Xiao Qiniang, but I don't know whether it's true or not." Li Man'er focused on the key points and talked to Qi Yihan, and finally made a summary, "I always feel that she didn't tell the truth.
"
"She certainly didn't tell the truth." Qi Yihan only said: "The good things in the Moro Mountains are far more than just a large Uzbek tomb."
Li Man'er's eyes widened, "I heard what the prince said, the Uzbek people really exist. Are they really exterminated? Leaving behind a big tomb with countless treasures?"
Qi Yihan nodded and said: "Not only the tomb, but also many good things you can't imagine."
"What is that?" Li Maner said thoughtfully: "There can't be an elixir that can make people achieve enlightenment and become immortals, right? Xiao Qiniang said that the Wu people serve the gods, and many of them will achieve enlightenment.
If there is a chance of becoming immortal, there might be some elixir of immortality in the tomb."
"No." Qi Yihan glanced at her, "You are also a doctor after all, but you actually believe in the theory of elixirs?"
"Of course I don't believe it, but this is a gimmick thrown by the Xiao family. I'm quite interested." Li Man'er only said: "Xiao Qiniang's methods are a little smarter than I thought."
Qi Yihan only said: "There must be no elixir in the tomb. As far as I know, the Uzbek people left two mineral veins."
Ore vein?
Li Man'er immediately became interested, "What kind of mine is it? Copper mine or iron mine?" There were two mines at once. It's no wonder that the Xiao family went to the mountains at all costs.
Mobei is far away from the capital. As the saying goes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. They kept the news tight and found trusted confidants to lead ordinary soldiers into the mountains to mine. They would definitely be able to do it without anyone noticing.
It's just that private mining is against the law. If the Xiao family dares to do this, it is really no different from rebellion.
"One of them is a copper mine and one is a gold mine."
Damn!
Li Maner almost shouted these two words.
Copper was a very rare metal in ancient times. Copper mines can be used to make copper coins and various ritual utensils. Not to mention gold mines, which are absolutely enviable.
It was a lie that the Xiao family was looking for the big tomb, but it was true that they were looking for these two mineral veins! Compared with these two mineral veins, the little things in the tomb are nothing.
In other words, the Xiao family has a disobedient heart.
When Li Maner thought of this, a light suddenly flashed in his heart, and something seemed to be coming out, but the inspiration soon dissipated.
She was not discouraged and asked, "Your Majesty, you want me to go into the mountains, find the mineral veins that the Xiao family is looking for, and then send you a message?"
"You don't need to send me a message, because I am going too."
ah?
Li Man'er let out a soft cry and couldn't turn his head.
Will he go too?
Li Man'er looked Qi Yihan up and down, and suddenly understood.
"The prince and the Xiao family seem to have reached some kind of consensus?" No wonder Qi Yihan's people can be successfully placed in the Xiao family.
However, since they are in the same group, why was Ah Qi arrested before and almost killed? After all, Li Wenchang was the person bribed by the Xiao family. Shouldn't he live in peace with Ah Qi?
Wait, why is this word used so weirdly?
do not care.
"Could it be that the prince is..." Li Man'er felt a chill on his neck, as if his life might be in jeopardy at any moment.
Qi Yihan glanced at her gently, "Are you afraid too?"
"The matter is serious, so I'm naturally scared." Li Man'er looked like I was very scared and murmured, "Does the prince want to kill people and silence them?"
In an era when imperial power reigned supreme, this kind of thing was not worth mentioning at all. How could the royal family take the lives of ordinary people so seriously?
"I am not a murderous person like the rumors say." Qi Yihan said: "The barbarians hold the gate every year, kill my people, and rob food. The Holy One intends for your father to join forces with the Xiao family to drive the barbarians back to the hinterland of the royal court.
Go. It’s not easy to exterminate the barbarians, but if you can make them so vital that they can’t do it again for twenty or thirty years, that would be great.”
Li Maner understood, the Ninth Prince was doing something for the emperor!
War kills people, and worst of all, it wastes people and money.
If these two ore veins are found and the benefits of the Uzbek tomb are obtained, the emperor will not be afraid even if the battle lasts for three or four years.
