This person is really troublesome. He has been obstructing everything he has done recently, as if he is deliberately trying to make things difficult for him. If it hadn't been for him, Ning Ziyuan would have successfully obtained the account book. She is really talking too much when she wants to ridicule herself at this time.
It's a pity that Gu Qiang was not afraid of him. Instead, she looked at Marquis Luo Ping in front of her with a smile, and asked in a humble manner: "Master Marquis, you are so plausible, that commoner would like to ask you a question. The mine just collapsed, and you came here. Could it be that you sent someone here to keep an eye on it? This mine must be very important to Mr. Hou’s letter. Otherwise, why would you come in person? "
Since ancient times, if this mine is not for wealth, it must be for the ore with special effects. This mine is near the capital. I am afraid that Luoping Hou has already inquired about the situation here. Knowing that Shen Zhongbai usually does not I focused on this, so I boldly brought people to mine.
Anyone who has the guts to be so unscrupulous under Shen Zhongbai's nose must be someone who is supporting him if he is not really stupid. Based on what has happened in the past few days, Gu Qiang feels that the second scenario is more likely. a little
This Marquis of Luoping also looks stupid. It is because of this look that Shen Zhongbai has been so trusting in handing over the army to him. Shen Zhongbai must have collected almost all the troops in Bei'an recently, so he thought He captured Luoping Hou and recalled him to the capital.
He didn't have the brains to steal the ledger, but his daughter did it. It seemed that Ning Ziyuan was much smarter than his father. Could it be that Ning Ziyuan was actually the real mastermind behind this incident
Marquis Luo Ping is a person with military power, but his daily salary is even more than that of the officials of the dynasty. If I remember correctly, Ning Ziyuan is still a spendthrift and will never give Luo Ping where he can spend money. Pinghou saves money, but I have never heard that Luopinghou's mansion is short of money.
This mine only started to open recently. It is impossible that Luoping Hou relied on this ore for a living before this. Moreover, it is impossible for him to clearly know where such a mine often exists. Behind his back There must be someone.
Shen Qianshan's expression did not change at all, because in fact, even he himself did not know what kind of ore was in the mine. When he came here, the mine had already begun to collapse. I thought I would conduct a thorough investigation next, but I didn’t expect Marquis Luo Ping to arrive quickly.
So at this time, Shen Qianshan was actually deceiving Luo Pinghou. The two of them were competing to see whose psychological quality was better.
"This matter is of great importance. Your Majesty, can you ask the crowd of five senses to retreat first, so that the two of us can discuss this matter carefully."
Marquis Luo Ping took a step back, but Shen Qianshan disagreed, "If the Marquis really didn't feel guilty, why did he let Master Gusu leave? With him here, wouldn't it be more proof that Hou Yan did nothing wrong?" What's the matter?"
After Gu Qiang heard this, he looked at Shen Qianshan beside him with some pride. It seemed that Shen Qianshan and he had really learned bad things.
Now that he has decided to take action, he will never be merciful.
As soon as Shen Qianshan and Gu Qiang said these words, it had been proved that they were determined to take care of this matter, that is, they could not get along with him. Luo Pinghou's face turned green with anger, but he could not say anything. What other words came.
"Then if that's the case, I won't be polite."
Now that they have obtained tacit consent, Shen Qianshan and Gu Qiang were naturally not polite. They took Qi Bai and Qianqiu beside them and prepared to go in to search. However, just when they were about to go in, Luo Pinghou Stopped them again.
"If the Ninth Prince wants to go in and investigate alone, I will naturally not have any problems. But no one knows if the Ninth Prince has these people with him, whether there will be any problems, or if he wants to frame me, so for the sake of To ensure that my honor is good, since the Ninth Prince has arranged for people to investigate this place, can I also arrange for a few people to stay here? "
Seeing that there was no way out from this matter, Luo Pinghou didn't know what to do. This was probably the only thing he could do now.
Although he gritted his teeth and agreed to Shen Qianshan's stay to investigate, Luo Pinghou still muttered a little guilty. He didn't want Shen Qianshan to really catch anything here, so he had to leave a few people here to watch. , lest he really turned him upside down.
However, Shen Qianshan understood very well that the person in front of him must have a guilty conscience, that's why he said such things, but if he really wanted to investigate, there was probably nothing he couldn't find out, so he simply nodded, " whatever."
The mine had already collapsed, and it was even more dangerous inside. Shen Qianshan actually didn't want Gu Qiang to follow him in, but after Gu Qiang experienced the great joy and sorrow of looking for someone in the ruins, he stepped forward She also didn't want to stay away from Shen Qianshan. Even if she had to go down to the mine, she would always stay with Shen Qianshan.
"There's really no big problem. I've sent my men to reinforce the mine inside and out. There won't be any big problem."
Shen Qianshan actually didn't want Gu Qiang to go down to the mine with him. The place was dark and humid. If Gu Qiang went with him, he would have to take care of her, which would delay things a bit.
Of course, Shen Qianshan didn't think that Gu Qiang would cause any trouble to him, he just felt that if Gu Qiang went down, he would be distracted.
After hearing this, Gu Qiang was of course unwilling, "What do you mean by this? Do you think I will delay your business?"
Gu Qiang shed a lot of things that she was doing just to make sure that Shen Qianshan was not in any other condition. Now it's better for you. You came to see him with good intentions, but he was disgusted by him.
"No, no, but don't you think it's a problem that Marquis Luo Ping is always looking at you? He doesn't dare to do anything to you when you are in the capital, but if you are here, if he really sends someone to do something to you If you take action, I may not be able to protect you completely."
"Then why didn't you say that there is his good daughter Ning Ziyuan in the capital? That guy Ning Ziyuan is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Don't you think that Ning Ziyuan won't plot against me after I return to the capital? "
Now that I think about it, Ning Ziyuan tried her best to get close to her, and maybe she also wanted to step on her feet and use him as a stepping stone.
What a terrible woman.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, but in the end Gu Qiang still couldn't control Shen Qianshan. Since Shen Qianshan said that it was safe in the capital, it would be better for him to go back, so as not to distract him in this place, and if something went wrong again, he wouldn't be worried. alright.
"Qianqiu, after you send the princess back, you will always stay with her. Don't leave, lest anyone harm the princess."
What Gu Qiang said just now really made Shen Qianshan worried. After all, he was downstairs at the time and could not stop Ning Ziyuan from hurting Gu Qiang. This time, he was so far away, so he was even more worried about Ning Ziyuan. Will Zi Yuan take any opportunity to hurt Gu Qiang again
Qianqiu has been following Gu Qiang for such a long time, and naturally has gained experience. He quickly nodded, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, my subordinates will take good care of the Princess."
Although Gu Qiang was a little reluctant, she still followed Qianqiu back to the capital. After all, Gu Huai'an had entrusted him with the affairs of the pharmacy before leaving. If he was gone for so many days, things would be troublesome again. Gusu Liang, this inevitably makes me feel a little embarrassed.
"Then you must be careful here alone. If you feel something is wrong, you must run out quickly."
Gu Qiang looked at the mine behind him hesitantly. Although it had been reinforced, the mine still looked in danger. There was really no way to make Gu Qiang not worried at all.
An An watched with peace of mind, Gu Qiang left here, and after returning to the capital, Shen Qianshan decided to enter the mine, with only Qi Bai behind him, because if too many people entered this place, it would be very difficult. It may collapse again. Listening to the miners inside, it seems that some things have been dug out from inside during this period. I just want to see what is dug out, so I have an idea.
No matter how stupid Ruo Baobian is, it is impossible to tell these miners what is hidden in the mine, not to mention that he is not short of money. For him, the gold mine is not as cost-effective as offering it to Shen Zhongbai. , the things inside are definitely not just gold mines, it is probably something that has something to do with Luo Pinghou, and the person following Luo Pinghou is definitely not Shen Zhongbai.
There are indeed a lot of discoveries in the mine, but this Luo Pinghou is indeed very scheming. There are even hidden weapons set up every few steps. If he hadn't just come in with Qi Bai, he would have already If you were prepared, you would probably have been tricked by now.
"Master, this Marquis Luo Ping is really cautious. Is he just hiding some insignificant things here?"
Qi Bai walked deeper and deeper, but felt that the things he saw here seemed to have nothing to do with the mine. Instead, he began to wonder if they had found the wrong place. Except for the entrance of the cave at the beginning, there were Some scrap iron mines, really nothing else.
"Could this be nothing more than a cover-up for them?"
