   Chapter 257 Dissatisfaction

   Beijing.

   Xiao Yuanshi received news from Beijiang and a letter from Ge Chunyi.

   When he saw the news that the old Xiao family stole 30,000 taels of silver from the bookbox, his face sank.

   even gave birth to a burst of anger.

   This time, he was not targeting the old Xiao family, but was angry with Ge Chunru.

   He thought that Ge Chunru prepared silver coins for Ge Chunyi, at most a few thousand taels.

   But she actually prepared 30,000 taels and valuable jade accessories.

   He called the housekeeper over and asked.

   Sure enough, Ge Chunru sold a lot of porcelain and ancient paintings in the warehouse.

   Plus part of her private house, and the thousands of taels he took from him were all stuffed into Ge Chunyi.

   He did have a lot of savings, but they were all robbed from wars and given away by others.

   Spend 30,000 taels at a time, and his flesh hurts.

  The key is that Ge Chunru was still preparing a dowry for Ge Chunyi, and took another 10,000 taels from his private house.

  Xiao Yuanshi did the math, Ge Chunru wanted to prepare 180 dowries for Ge Chunyi, and it was really too short of tens of thousands of taels.

   also subsidized a lot of things in the warehouse, most of her remaining private houses, and the precious jewelry he once gave her.

  Ge Chunru said about the shops and mansions he crossed Ming Road, there are already four places in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, so what else did he not know?

   His face couldn't help but look even more ugly. The money spent on her younger siblings was almost going to dig out most of the savings of the General's Mansion.

   To a real aristocratic family, more than 100,000 taels is nothing at all.

   But he started from a farmer without a foundation.

   It hasn’t been a few years since he was promoted to general and transferred to the capital, so it’s not bad to have so much savings.

   To buy more dowry for Ge Chunyi, he also recognized it.

   After all, he was on the ship of the second prince, and Ge Chunyi's identity was not enough. Giving more dowry could also save face.

  Why is Ge Chunyi a waste?

   Fortunately, the old Xiao family stole the money, otherwise he wouldn't know there were so many, wouldn't it all be cheaper for Ge Chunyi.

   But how did the old Xiao family know that the money was hidden in the bookcase?

   He instructed his cronies with a sullen face, "The plan prepared by Beijiang can be implemented."

   He arranged for someone to take Xiao Dalang to gamble, and then lost all the money.

   Xiao Dalang's casino in that county is his property.

   means that the money will be back in his pocket, Ge Chunru and his brother will not know.

   Thinking of this, he felt more comfortable.

   But his dissatisfaction with Ge Chunru did not disappear.

   The cronies nodded respectfully, "Yes, I'll make arrangements for the little ones."

   After a while, Xiao Yuanshi walked to an inconspicuous vase in the study.

  He directly reached out and took out a picture drawn with animal skins from the vase.

   held the animal skin in silence for a while, but he still couldn't hold back.

   spread out the hide, took out another piece of parchment, and copied all the contents and pictures on it.

   folded the newly copied parchment, tied it with thread, and threw it into the inconspicuous and not very valuable vase.

   His study naturally also has hidden compartments.

   But what was really important to him was not kept in the secret compartment.

   Then he stuffed the animal skin into his arms and entered the palace in a carriage.

   It's been too long, it's time to give the treasure map to the emperor.

   He was very upset, and originally wanted to use this treasure map for big benefits at a critical time.

   is now forced to take it to relieve the emperor.

  The emperor heard Xiao Yuanshi's interview, and roughly guessed the purpose of the other party's visit today.

   After all, ten days ago, Xiao Yuanshi's people just staged a good show to capture the remnants of the previous dynasty.

   Now I'm afraid I'm going to send a treasure map.

  The emperor squinted his eyes, Xiao Yuanshi was still very knowledgeable, he took the initiative to hand in the treasure map, otherwise...

   However, he did not meet the person immediately, but waited for a while to express his recent dissatisfaction with Xiao Yuanshi, and it was only then that he heard it.

   "Your Majesty, this was searched by the remnants of the court before he was arrested."

   Xiao Yuanshi took out the treasure map from his arms after the audience and handed it over.

  The emperor took the picture of the animal skin presented by the **** and looked at it.

   asked the waiter to take a map of the girders for comparison.

   After the comparison, the face is very dark.

   "Xiao Aiqing, where do you see where this treasure map is?"

   Xiao Yuanshi still winked, and was unhappy when he saw the emperor's black face.

   He thought about it and said truthfully: "My minister looks like the northern border."

   He came back from a war in the northern Xinjiang, so he is quite familiar with there.

  The emperor sneered, "It's not just in the northern border."

   Xiao Yuanshi bit his head and said again: "It looks like the piece of King Jin's fief."

  The emperor resisted the urge to lift the desk, and said indifferently: "I look a little familiar, it turns out to be King Jin's fief!"

   His father is really good.

  There was a batch of treasures hidden in advance by the royal family in the previous dynasty, which was no secret at the beginning of the Daliang dynasty.

   It is just a legend that the treasure map has been destroyed by the remnants of the previous dynasty.

   When his father was on the throne, he was also looking for it.

   It seems that he got some news and knew that the place where the treasure was hidden is near Beicheng in the northern border, so that large area including Beicheng was allocated to King Jin as a fief.

   What is the first emperor trying to do? Give the treasure to his precious son for self-defense, or for rebellion?

  Xiao Yuanshi said for the sake of safety: "It looks like it, but the specifics have to be checked to determine."

   He actually studied the treasure map for a long time, so he was sure that the treasure map pointed to the area of ​​Beicheng.

   It’s just that the specifics seem to be based on this treasure map to find, and it’s not so easy to get the treasure.

   He also thought of the late emperor.

   Was it really unintentional when the late emperor assigned Beichengfu to King Jin as a fief?

   Soon he put his mind to rest.

  The emperor played with the animal skin, "Is Aiqing the treasure map you just got?"

   Xiao Yuanshi's heart skipped a beat, but he was sure what he was doing was very secretive.

   So he nodded without changing his face, "Yes."

   "Very good, if I find something on this treasure map in the future, I will give Aiqing a credit."

The meaning of    is that what is credited to now, let's not talk about it.

   Xiao Yuanshi was a little disappointed although he knew it.

   He replied: "This is what the minister should do."

  The emperor's attitude was better than before, he waved his hand, "Okay, you can go down."

   "Yes!" After Xiao Yuanshi exited, he realized that his back was covered in cold sweat.

The    emperor became more and more majestic, and it became increasingly difficult for people to see his thoughts.

   Fortunately, he presented the treasure map, otherwise if the emperor knew that he dared to intercept the treasure map in the future, he would be in trouble.

   Soon, a rumor began to spread in the capital.

   "Have you heard? The second prince was shocked when he saw General Xiao's wife and sister, and he had to take the initiative to admit it as a concubine."

   "I heard that, if that Ge Chunyi's status is not high enough, the second prince has a prince concubine, or he might marry someone as a prince concubine."

   "General Xiao's wife and sister are really that beautiful?"

   "I heard that she is very beautiful, and she is proficient in everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, no worse than a daughter from a noble family."

   "No wonder even the prince can be fascinated."

   "That's also the second prince's good fortune."

   These words quickly reached the ears of the second prince.
