Looking at the smile on Hua Jin's face, Ergouzi shivered. He quickly agreed and ran out quickly with a stack of tofu-like exploration maps, planning to auction them.
With Hua Jin's approach, if the princes and nobles want to put together an entire mine exploration map, they will have to fight to the death among themselves.
But Hua Jin doesn't care about this. What she cares about is that King Qi got a whole mine exploration map.
Although it is also fake, Tianxiang tried his best to copy it from Sun Guogong and use it to please the King of Qi.
But King Qi, this idiot, has really sent his army to dig silver mines.
Moreover, the King of Qi chose a silver mine closest to Guqi Prefecture to dig.
After Er Gouzi left, Hua Jin stretched out her hand to call Lian'er.
"Put away the silver notes properly and tell Wu Tian to let King Qi's army dig out. After King Qi's army digs out the first batch of silver, they will restrain King Qi's army and throw them all away to raise chickens."
This fake mineral vein exploration map was made by Hua Jin himself. Except for the existing mineral veins that were secretly mined by the princes and nobles, all the unexploited mineral veins are small ones that are buried very deep.
Mine, poor mine.
Specifically speaking, it is simply not worth spending manpower, material and financial resources to mine this kind of mineral.
Input and output are not directly proportional at all.
However, the previous mine had been sealed by Li Yunqing. The forces that had obtained the mineral vein exploration map could only mine this new mine in the deep mountain wilderness without alerting Li Yunqing.
This is Hua Jin's plan, to use the human, financial and material resources of these forces to mine this small poor mine first, and then she will pick peaches and cut off the beard halfway.
"yes."
Lian'er came forward with a smile, put away the wad of silver notes presented by Er Gouzi, and then turned around and left Hua Jin's house.
I happened to see Gu Zun leading the city guards, carrying boxes of gold and silver and land deeds, into Huajin's courtyard.
She stepped forward, folded her arms, looked at Gu Zun at leisure, and stood in front of him.
Gu Zun held his hands expressionlessly,
"Miss Lian'er."
After that, he raised his foot to go around Lian'er, but was blocked by Lian'er raising his hand.
Gu Zun's eyes showed a little bit of confusion.
Lian'er smiled proudly and said:
"My brother came to see my mother-in-law just now. She also praised my brother for doing a good job recently and arranged a more important errand for him."
"I remember Captain Gu said that he was afraid that my brother would be unfavorable to my wife. What does Captain Gu say now?"
Under the bright golden sunshine, the ancient statue stood on the spot neither humble nor arrogant.
"I'm just telling the truth. It's natural for your brother to be loyal to your mother-in-law. Although your brother is the leader of the Beggar Clan now, he can also be regarded as your right-hand man. If you can be neither arrogant nor impetuous in the future and continue to do your best for your mother-in-law, there will be nothing wrong with you."
Criticize.”
These words made Lian'er so angry that she stood there with her hands on her hips and said:
"Who wants to tell you this? Of course my brother will always be used by the queen..."
"That's good. I still have something to report to you, so I'll take my leave."
Before Lian'er could finish her words, Gu Zun handed over his hand and walked around Lian'er.
This indifferent attitude made Lian'er stomp her feet in anger.
How can there be such annoying people in the world?
Hua Jin, who was sitting by the window in the house, couldn't help laughing when she saw this scene.
So far, there are only three attendants around her, a Su Niang who was sterilized with powder, Yue'er, and Lian'er.
The one with the sharpest tongue is Lian'er. No one can quarrel with her on weekdays.
Now looking at Lian'er's deflated appearance, Hua Jin actually found it funny.
It wasn't until Gu Zun came closer that she stopped smiling.
This time Gu Zun confiscated a large amount of store property, and the money was more than enough to invest in a large tiger forest.
The southern city in Northland can be built better.
It was with this explanation that Lian'er, who had gone out to deliver a message to Wu Tianfei Ge, came back.
She glared at Gu Zun, then raised her hand towards Hua Jin,
"Mother, there are a few sneaky people outside Yanghu Forest. They seem to be people from Tianyigu."
Upon hearing the name "Tian Yi Gu", the expression on Hua Jin's face suddenly became serious.
She got up and told Lian'er, who didn't know martial arts, to stay in the village and not go out. Then she took Gu Zun with her, ordered a team of city guards, and headed outside Yanghu Forest.
A group of Tianyigu disciples dressed in white were camping in a forest, seemingly preparing to take a short rest before heading into the mountain to explore.
"Big brother."
A girl in white, holding a sword in her hand, came to an imposing man.
She looked at the dense forest ahead with a worried look,
"Is Second Senior Sister really going to be here? I heard there are a lot of tigers here. Should we set up the camp farther away?"
The man known as "Eldest Brother" pondered as he listened to the distant roar of tigers in the forest.
"You guys rest here first. I'll go into the forest to check it out. If there is really no danger, you can go back into the forest."
When the girl in white heard this, her face looked worried, and she opened her mouth to say something, but the senior brother was already holding his sword, like a white elephant, passing through the gravel and weeds, and entered the dense forest.
There was a lot of fog in the forest. Bai Jinghong kept walking forward. After a short walk, the forest was so dense that only a narrow path remained.
"Who?"
Bai Jinghong suddenly stood on the spot, turned around, picked up his sword and stabbed to the side.
A red figure flashed past, a "clang" sound was heard, the sound of swords clashing was heard, and the sword in Bai Jinghong's hand was blocked.
He raised his eyes and met a pair of smiling eyes. Bai Jinghong was startled and immediately took two steps back.
"Who is the girl?"
Hua Jin did not expect that this disciple of Tianyi Valley would dare to break into her tiger breeding forest alone. She also put away her sword, stared at it, tilted her head slightly and said:
"Get out of here, this is not the place you should be."
She was dressed in red clothes, carrying a cold sword in her hand, her black hair was tied high, smoke was swirling around her, and her whole person was like a bright fire.
Bai Jinghong was so stunned by the reflection.
He reacted, hurriedly handed over his hands, and said politely:
"Girl, is there a Yutou Village in this mountain? I have a junior sister here. After going to this Yutou Village some time ago, there has been no news. This time we happened to pass by here and wanted to go in and look for my junior sister."
"Never seen it."
Hua Jin's expression was a little cold, she raised the sword in her hand and looked at Bai Jinghong,
"There are no junior sisters like you here, only countless tigers."
Seeing her cold look, Bai Jinghong was not angry, but still asked politely:
"May I ask what the girl knows? I heard that there were not so many tigers here before. It seems that several tiger groups migrated here overnight."
He looked at Hua Jin intently and continued:
"I was entrusted by the elders in the sect, and I just wanted to find out if my junior sister is okay. Does she know anything?"
"I don't know, I don't know anything."
Hua Jin naturally won't tell him anything.
She was about to send him away, but Bai Jinghong took two steps forward.
Just listen to him say, "Girl, if you don't know anything, then why are you here?"
When he got closer, Hua Jin raised his sword and stabbed him, saying sharply:
"Why should I tell you whether I am here or not? What if I am here? What if I am not here? What does it have to do with you?"
"girl......"
Bai Jinghong didn't expect Hua Jin to be so wary of him, so he raised the sword in his hand and started fighting with Hua Jin.
The fallen leaves were flying in the forest for a while, one red and one white, like two feathered birds, with a light and graceful figure.
A piece of white clothes was cut off, and Bai Jinghong stepped away, his breath slightly disordered.
He looked at the beauty of the fallen leaves in the distance, and couldn't help but his heart beat wildly, and his love suddenly rose.
Hua Jin, who was admired by him, was thinking about whether to take this opportunity to kill Bai Jinghong and feed it to the tiger.
But she was not sure whether Bai Jinghong's body would have the same poison as gold water. If she really fed Bai Jinghong to tigers, wouldn't all the tigers she had worked so hard to raise be poisoned to death?
Hua Jin's face was cold, and she turned around and entered the dense forest, intending to meet with Gu Zun first and then discuss a way to deal with these disciples in Tianyi Valley.
Just as Bai Jinghong was about to chase him, junior sister Yuan Youying's shout came from behind him,
"Elder brother, where are you going?"
As a last resort, Bai Jinghong paused. With just one step away, he could no longer catch up with Hua Jin.
With a touch of regret, Bai Jinghong turned around, looked at Yuan Youying and asked with a frown:
"Didn't I ask you to take the other disciples and wait for me? Why did you come alone?"
"People don't trust you..."
Yuan Youying's voice was cooing. Seeing that there was no one around, she stretched out her white and tender fingers and grabbed Bai Jinghong's sleeve. Her cheeks were red and she looked a little shy.
Bai Jinghong sighed and softened his tone,
"What's wrong with you? There's nothing here."
With that said, he took Yuan Youying's hand and led her out of the forest.
Halfway through, I turned around reluctantly, hoping to see the stunning girl in red again in the dense woods.
"Brother, what are you looking at?"
Yuan Youying looked into the depths of the forest with some suspicion, but saw nothing.
He couldn't explain why. Bai Jinghong didn't want his junior sister to know that he had met Hua Jin, so he just changed the subject and led his junior sister back to the place where they camped.
As soon as he returned, his junior brother sent a letter from the sect to Bai Jinghong, asking him to lead his disciples to find the whereabouts of the Beidi mineral vein exploration map.
Yuan Youying held the small note very curiously and turned to ask Bai Jinghong,
"Brother, what is this Northland mineral vein exploration map?"
"It is said that it was leaked from Prince Li's Mansion and contains all the mineral veins in the entire Northland."
Bai Jinghong took the small piece of paper from Yuan Youying's hand and looked deeply into the woods ahead.
He was still thinking that if he went into the woods next, he might meet the girl again.
This was a good time. The master asked him to find the Northland mineral vein exploration map. I wonder if he would have a chance to see the peerless beauty in red in the future.
Yuan Youying didn't see what was on his mind at all, so she asked innocently:
"But senior brother, aren't we here to see Second Senior Sister when we come to Yutoushan this time?"
This is also a matter.
Bai Jinghong thought for a while and decided:
"Then let's stay here for the time being. We'll go see Eunuch Huang tomorrow and then make plans."
He was secretly happy that by using the excuse of looking for his second junior sister, he could continue to stay at the foot of Yutou Mountain without delaying his search for mineral vein exploration maps.
According to the clues given by the teacher, only Sun Guogong currently has a complete mine exploration map.
The disciples of Tianyigu discussed carefully at the foot of Yutou Mountain.
Hua Jin also discussed with Gu Zun and decided to defeat the disciples of Tianyi Valley one by one.
Because the Jianghu sect like Tianyigu is different from Wang Jun. Qi Wangjun is a piece of shit. Tianyigu has three sects, one uses poison, one studies medicine, and the other studies martial arts.
There is no way to control so many disciples in Tianyiggu by any other means.
So we can only do what Hua Jin did just now, wait for the disciples of Tianyi Valley to enter the forest, and then find a way to arrest them one by one.
Not long after, news from Ergouzi came over. These Tianyigu disciples at the foot of Yutou Mountain were all students of the medical school, not poisoners.
This made Hua Jin and others breathe a sigh of relief. If they didn't use poison, they wouldn't pollute the environment.
When the time comes, you can arrest them, beat them, or kill them.
However, after waiting for two days, the disciples of Tianyi Valley not only did not enter the valley, but stayed outside the forest, as if they had plans to stay there for a long time.
In the forest, at night, Gu Zun stood behind Hua Jin,
"Your Majesty, Bai Jinghong from Tianyi Valley has been walking through the woods these past two days, as if he is looking for the entrance to Yutou Village."
"Is he the only one who went into the forest? Didn't the other disciples of Tianyigu plan to go into the forest to search for Yutou Village?"
"I have never found that they have such an intention."
Gu Zun shook his head, this was what puzzled him the most.
In the past few days, the city guards have planted various traps in the woods at the foot of Yutou Mountain. It is no exaggeration to say that there are either tigers or deadly traps in the woods of Yutou Mountain.
Anyone who enters the woods of Yutou Mountain will be killed or injured.
But Bai Jinghong and the others refused to come in.
Hua Jin pondered for a moment,
"If that's the case, then go ask Ergouzi and see if they have any other plans."
As soon as he said these words, the city guard came to report, saying that after Bai Jinghong wandered in the woods for a while, he led his disciples directly to the capital of Guqi Prefecture.
"I haven't even visited the capital of Guqi Prefecture."
Hua Jin snapped her fingers and told Gu Zun,
"Keep Jin Shui under guard. Don't let this poisonous man die. Let's go to the capital of Guqi Prefecture for a walk."
Behind her, Gu Zun hurriedly raised his head to persuade his empress, Guqi Prefecture was the territory of King Qi. As the princess of the North, how could she put herself in danger?
But Hua Jin had made up her mind and had already turned around and left.
Gu Zun had no choice but to go back with him to arrange some security arrangements.
This group of people went to the capital of Guqi Prefecture to investigate Tianyi Valley. Their main purpose was to protect Hua Jin, and they could not go there in the guise of a city guard.
You have to change your skin. Whether it's ten divine soldiers or elite city guard troops, you can only go with them in casual clothes.
After arranging everything in an orderly manner while busy, Gu Zun immediately released the eagle owl and sent a message to the prince. When he turned around, he saw that Lian'er also pulled out a horse and followed the empress.
He frowned, walked over, and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, Miss Lian'er had better not follow you. If there is any danger, Miss Lian'er will really be a drag."
