Chen Jia breathed out.
The wild cat looked at him again and left again.
This scene is really like an animated cartoon. It's a little mysterious. Chen Jia sighed and hurried back to work. He found the side room of the Empress Dowager's bedroom in the dark. There was a dark box on the bookshelf there. After twisting, it was a secret room.
The door of the secret room was closed and there was a keyhole on it. Chen Jia thought the key was the key to the money box. Now she knows that it is actually the key to the secret room. After opening the door, Chen Jia lit a candle and went in. She almost lost her chin!
There are dozens of boxes in the secret room. They are all real gold and silver treasures!
He went up and looked for a silver block at random, and confirmed that it was solid. The Empress Dowager left some money for Xia Houyu. She left him a treasury!
Chen Jia quickly took a bag of money, enough for recent months, and locked the door and went out.
His mind was complicated. After returning to the Qianyi hall, he returned the key to Xia Houyu.
Xia Houyu didn't understand what he meant and asked, "what is this?"
Chen Jia coughed and replied, "can the third prince see the money left by the Empress Dowager?"
Xia Hou Yu shook her head: "I haven't had a chance. I only know where it is."
Chen Jia swallowed her saliva and said, "if the third prince goes to see it, he will understand. What the Empress Dowager left you is not a little money, but... The money of dozens of boxes." Chen Jia said and stretched out his hand to compare the size of the box.
Xia Houyu was also stunned.
Chen Jia continued: "dozens of boxes are full of gold, silver and jewelry, but there are no calligraphy, painting, porcelain and other things. I think the Empress Dowager feels that gold, silver and jewelry are easier to store. However, where did the Empress Dowager get so much money?"
Xia Houyu murmured, "it's about the dowry of the emperor's grandmother."
"Dowry?!" Chen Jia said.
Xia Houyu replied: "The emperor's grandmother, in fact, was not a noble, but a business family. When my grandfather was in office, the people were displaced by natural disasters year after year. A wealthy businessman generously built a hundred mile porridge shed in the south of the Yangtze River, built houses and used medicinal materials to save tens of thousands of victims. This was praised by thousands of people and spread to my grandfather's ears. My grandfather called him to Beijing and granted him a marquis as a token of gratitude Praise. When he went to Beijing, he took his daughter with him, which was the Empress Dowager at that time. "
Chen Jia said, "the Empress Dowager is young and beautiful, so the first emperor fell in love with her at first sight?"
Xia Houyu shook her head: "it's not love at first sight. It's about to make the merchant's title stable. The emperor's grandfather took the initiative to marry his daughter. It's said that the emperor's grandmother married into the palace with a hundred miles of red makeup and a great momentum."
Chen Jia replied: "I see. When the Empress Dowager was alive, she had the best food and clothing in the palace. There was no time to use her dowry. When the Empress Dowager died, the dynasties changed, and no one must remember her dowry."
Xia Houyu said, "unexpectedly, grandma Huang left this wealth to me. What does she mean?"
Chen Jia said: "The third prince thinks it's ridiculous, but I don't think it's difficult to understand. The Empress Dowager's biological father is a businessman who helps the world. The Empress Dowager must have received a good family education. She is a tolerant and kind-hearted woman, but she has restrained her nature in the harem. In fact, in her eyes, she has always known the hearts of several princes. She must have measured the situation of several princes I chose to give you this wealth. "
Xia Houyu thought for a moment and said, "at that time, the eldest brother was still alive. He was virtuous and loyal. He had the support of the imperial concubine behind him. He had a good life and was not short of money. Other princes, either relying on him or being disloyal, were not suitable for entrusting wealth. In a word, it was only me."
Chen Jia's eyes were burning: "when the third prince understood the Empress Dowager's heart, he couldn't live up to her. In those days, the Empress Dowager's father helped the world. If the treacherous generation like the fifth prince or the seventh Prince got it, how could the third prince face his ancestors in the future?"
Xia Houyu was greatly touched by the speech and nodded deeply.
Chen Jia said, "the third prince doesn't have to worry. It's up to him. I'm going out of the Palace tomorrow. Don't be lazy and don't do rehabilitation exercises while I'm away."
Xia Hou Yu nodded helplessly and said, "I'm not the kind of person who steals and plays tricks."
"Really..." Chen Jia touched the scarves with holes at hand and said, "didn't the third prince tear this scarf on purpose so that I could make you a new one? It turned out that I wronged the third prince..."
Hearing that Yan's old face was slightly hot, Xia Houyu quickly turned off the topic. But she thought to herself: it's the first month. You had to weave a dark scarf for me. If you didn't weave it, I had to tear the red one. In fact, I'm also very sad
The next day, Chen Jia went out with a bulging purse and met Zhong Lihao at the old place of East Street.
He gave the money bag to Zhong Lihao and said, "brother, don't worry about money in the future, and let sister-in-law stop doing private embroidery. It hurts your eyes."
Zhong Lihao was worried about the money bag. He didn't like it and asked him, "where did you get the money?"
Chen Jia quickly explained: "don't worry, brother. Don't steal or rob. It was given by the third prince. The third prince has also accumulated some money in the palace for many years. Now he gave me all the money and told me to do a good job."
Zhong Lihao was relieved and said, "since the three princes trust their property, it shows that they trust you very much."
"That's natural. Have you brought the medicine?"
"Yes, but there's not enough silver. Some herbs are not old enough. Now that I have money, I'll send someone to buy them right away. Wait a moment."
"Please, big brother." Chen Jia stayed in the secret shop on East Street and waited.
Little white got the news and hurriedly came to talk to him.
Chen Jia hasn't seen him for a long time. There are many people in the palace. Xiaobai is their magic weapon to win. If it's not necessary, he won't let Xiaobai appear in the Qianyi hall.
As soon as Xiaobai saw him, he threw himself in his arms and said, "why don't you ask me to see you? I'm tired of playing here alone!"
Chen Jia replied: "now is not the time. When the time is ripe, there will naturally be a time for our family of three to get together."
Xiaobai raised his head and said, "were you in danger in the Palace last night?"
Chen Jia remembered and asked, "did you send that wild cat?"
Xiaobai said proudly, "I told them to take care of you. It seems that the dried fish they usually bring to them is not leucorrhea!"
Chen Jiaxiao: "then I'll buy some dried fish later. Thank them very much."
"I want to buy that kind of saury. It has few bones. They like it."
Chen Jia naturally responded and said, "please leave quickly. Don't stay here too long so as not to attract other people's attention."
Xiaobai looked at Chen Jia reluctantly, pretending to leave. In fact, she was thinking about her little 99 - following Chen Jia and asking him to buy himself two pieces of Liji Ma Su when he bought fish.
Chen Jia didn't notice that there was a small tail around her. He waited for Zhong Lihao to get the medicine again, so he took a detour to buy Dried saury. The fishy smell of fish is heavy, so I want to buy it in the deep alley of taixuan City, where there is an alley specializing in selling aquatic products.
Chen Jia found a place in seven turns and eight turns. Before entering the alley, he heard a cry for mercy: "please, sir! Please, sir!"
In this cry, many people hurriedly got out of the alley, and all looked pale.
Chen Jia quickly grabbed a man and asked, "brother, what happened ahead?"
The man grabbed Chen Jia and said as he walked, "little brother, don't go to see it, so as not to cause trouble. Avoid it quickly!"
"What the hell is going on?"
"The housekeeper of the fifth Prince's house said that the fifth Prince ate their fish and was caught by fish bones, so he wanted to pay for his life!"
Chen Jia's heart was cold and her eyes suddenly became fierce - there are such vicious people in this world!
