Chapter 264
But she is more curious, who is the most wronged person, how stupid is it to be tricked like this!

To build such a cannon in ancient times, needless to say manpower and material resources, the most important thing is financial resources. It is estimated that the research fund alone will cost a lot, and there is still time...

The painstaking work was completed but was stolen by someone, and the other party was probably so angry that he spurted blood.

When Dong Ejin asked, Master Jiu also felt that there was nothing to hide from her, so he said it directly.

He hooked his lips into a smile, "It belongs to Nalan Mingzhu."

Dong Ejin raised her eyebrows slightly, really unexpected.

According to the information she knew, Nalan Mingzhu was especially relied on by Emperor Kangxi, and he was a civil servant who messed with power.Although he once had the experience of a general, but because of his large family, deep background, intelligence and ability, he was promoted very quickly. In a few years, he entered the confidential department of the DPRK and China, and then he was promoted step by step until now.

And she always thought that he was only interested in power, and his ideal goal was to be the emperor's most favored official.

It's just that he didn't expect that he still had such ambitions.

Want to usurp the throne?
No way...Master Kangxi can secure his current position, his resume completely crushes him, how hard he must think about it to seek power and usurp the throne.

Master Jiu looked at her meaningfully, and said, "How about it, can't you think of it! How could such a treacherous and cunning person like Mingxiang be just a gentleman on the surface?"

"If he doesn't do something behind his back, with his greedy mind, he won't be able to sleep well at night..."

Dong Ejin understood a little bit.

Corrupt officials in ancient and modern China and abroad are all the same, the more corrupt officials there are, the more greedy they become.

Modern people pass elections and gain positions fairly, but there are still big families and financial groups behind the scenes, and if they can't be changed, they will directly send killers to kill each other and reshuffle the cards.

In ancient times, when fate was a must, such murders would only get worse.

Because, these intertwined big families are closer to rights, and the smell of rights will be clearer, like fresh blood, attracting them all the time with incomparable temptation.

In particular, some of their ancestors once sat in this position, or almost sat in this position. They have never obtained it, and they will only become more eager and ambitious.

Master Jiu stared at his daughter-in-law's white and delicate side face, and couldn't help but step on his rival in love, but he wanted to act casually: "With such a father, Nalan Kuifang is not a good thing, really. I know how you fell in love with him before..."

"Reflect on yourself, were you particularly blind in the past?"

Dong Ejin tilted her head and looked at him quietly.

She imagined that a man like Nalan Kuifang would look down on her even if he appeared in front of her as a good man.

The reason is simple: there are too many greeds controlled by various desires in his eyebrows and eyes, as well as that kind of distinct contempt.

In contrast, although Master Jiu is not a good thing in the traditional sense, at least there are three views.

Dong Ejin deliberately ignored his little Aojiao, just as the carriage stopped in front of Dong E's mansion, she got out of the carriage directly: "See you tomorrow, remember to bring Dai Li to me."

She had to take Dai Li to look at the mountain cannon, maybe she could find other clues.

"No!" Master Jiu grabbed her hand from behind, pulled her over skillfully, hugged her in his arms, and refused to let her go: "How long have you been with me? You didn’t even look at me at the banquet today!!”

It's just him sneaking a peek at her!
