Working part-time as a wife is too busy

Chapter 138 The Iron Box Secret (2)
"Really? Take your time, sister-in-law, I won't bother you!" Rong Jie is not used to this way of getting along with Gu Xiaoya, so he plans to run away now.

But Gu Xiaoya didn't let him go, seeing him turn around, she hurriedly called to him and asked, "You came to see me just to ask these two sentences?"

Rong Jie's body froze, and finally said in a low voice: "No, sister-in-law, I'm sorry!"

The last three words were spoken very loudly, and Rong Jie ran away after saying that, while Gu Xiaoya behind him showed a silent smile, even if he couldn't love her so much, it is estimated that the two of them will not have too much difficulty getting along in the future.

Not long after Rong Jie left, Rong Yao and Xiang Han came back from the outside together, but Xiang Han came here in disguise, and a small wooden box was carried behind the two of them.

After the three entered the room, Gu Xiaoya looked at them puzzled and asked, "Didn't you say that you are all looking into the things lost in the palace? Why are you back now? Did you find something?"

After Emperor Guangzong lost the iron box that day, he secretly sent someone to investigate at first, but then he was probably in a hurry, so he asked Leng Yan and Rong Yao to help him find it. The fourth prince Xiang Hao and the fifth prince Xiang Han were also specially called by him. In the palace, and after they came out of the palace, the faces of both of them were not very good.

Later, Xiang Han told Gu Xiaoya that after Emperor Guangzong called them into the palace, he directly said that the prince would choose between the two of them and the eldest prince, and whoever found the iron box first would be the prince.

Emperor Guangzong's decision was obviously to watch their brothers fight, and Xiang Hao was the one who couldn't understand the most, because although he also had ideas about the throne, he was too capable and had no one to help him, so he would not be able to reach a high position after all.

Even if he finds the iron box, then the eldest prince's people, the Liu family, and even the people of King Hui will not let him go. Besides, he has learned from the investigation that the old patriarch of the royal family seems to have a different opinion of the fifth prince Xiang Han. If they don't treat each other, then he will have less help and fewer opportunities.

Therefore, when the situation is uncertain, he just wants to save his life. Even if he can't become the emperor in the future, it's not bad to be a free prince, but Emperor Guangzong is putting him on the fire.

Xiang Han's thoughts were similar to Xiang Hao's, but Emperor Guangzong's actions made him see that the emperor seemed to be willing to sacrifice anyone for the sake of power, selfishness and greed. The same will be discarded, so even if he gets the iron box, he will never be handed over to the emperor.

Afterwards, after a long period of investigation, with the help of Leng Yan and Rong Yao, Xiang Han found out that the iron box was stolen by someone from Shangguan Chengyu, to be exact, someone from Hua Wuyou.

Just when the iron box was about to be brought to Huachao Kingdom, Xiang Han's men, Hui Wang's men, and Xiang Hao's men besieged Shangguan Chengyu and his gang at the same time. The clothesman snatched the iron box away.

Afterwards, Xiang Han found out that these men in black were Rong Yao's iron guards, and that Rong Yao did not hide the fact that he had obtained the iron box. Originally, he wanted to hand over the iron box to Xiang Han, but Xiang Han let him He took the iron box to the General's Mansion.

Therefore, when Gu Xiaoya asked, Xiang Han told her that the thing lost in the palace had been found, it was the iron box in Qingliang Temple, and the iron box was now inside the wooden box.

After the box was opened, Rong Yao put the iron box on the table in front of the three of them. It was the first time that Gu Xiaoya looked at this legendary iron box up close. It was because of it that many people died.

"Even the most dexterous craftsman in the world can't open this iron box. Only the jade pendant of the weeping mandarin duck can be put into the groove on the top of the iron box. It will be completely destroyed at that moment." This is also what Rong Yao knew when he was looking for the iron box, no wonder the iron box is still intact, presumably both Emperor Guangzong and Hua Wuyou knew this.

"Wait for me!" Gu Xiaoya turned around and went to her inner room. When she came out, she was holding a pair of weeping mandarin ducks.

"Both are in your hands?" Both Rong Yao and Xiang Han were stunned for a moment. After searching for so long, they didn't expect both of them to be in Gu Xiaoya's hands.

"That's right, I found one from Anqing's stomach, and the other one was secretly taken out by my brother from King Hui and I gave it to me." Gu Xiaoya chuckled lightly, walked to the iron box, and handed over the blood-weeping mandarin duck. The jade pendant is placed in the groove, and it fits perfectly.

Hearing a light "pop", the iron box opened its mouth, and inside lay a strangely folded piece of paper, and the paper was pulled by the silk in the iron box, if it was not opened normally, the The silk will instantly tear the paper to shreds.

After observing carefully, Gu Xiaoya gently pulled up a silk head, and then slowly pulled it out. Soon, the piece of paper was completely spread out on the table, and it turned out to be a map of the Great Qin Dynasty.

"This iron box is not fake, and this map is indeed similar to the map of mountains and rivers from the Great Qin Dynasty, but if this is really a treasure map, why is there no mark?" Xiang Han asked, looking at the map strangely.

"I think I should know it from the poem Yaoyao Xianju, Junyue; don't ask the old man, it's only related to the ancient poem when chasing the colorful clouds. Although this map is similar to the map of the Great Qin Dynasty, it is still very different. , Look here, there should be a sunset on the map, which is rare." Naturally, Rong Yao has seen more maps than Gu Xiaoya and Xiang Han, so he can see the crux of the matter at a glance.

"That's right, and the other marks on this map are also a bit strange. There are landscape graphics and pavilion shapes. It's a map, it's better to say it's a simple landscape painting." Xiang Han also echoed. .

Gu Xiaoya carefully recalled the poem about the treasure, looked at the map seriously, then pointed her finger on the map, and quickly pursed her lips into a smile. She thought she should have guessed where the treasure might be. There are treasure words.

"Look, the 'Yaoyao Immortal Residence' should refer to the Sansheng Mountain. Didn't the Sansheng Mountain come from the fact that the Sansheng of the Immortal Family lived here?" Gu Xiaoya pointed to Rong Yao and Xiang Xiang while talking. Han look.

The two of them frowned first, then stretched their eyebrows. They both nodded and looked at her, motioning for her to continue talking.

"'Junyue I know', then it should refer to the green lake in the Three Sacred Mountains, and this lake is just in the middle of the hinterland of the Three Sacred Mountains from this map, and 'Don't ask the old people, just chase The two sentences of "time of colorful clouds" can be seen from the sunset in this picture. The sunset is usually accompanied by the sunset, but in this picture, the sun that has already set behind the mountain has its reflection in the green lake in the Three Sacred Mountains, and the sunset The reflection overlaps with a big rock on the lake, or it is not a rock but a small mountain, in short, I think this place is very strange." Qin Lanxin pointed to the Three Sacred Mountains on the map and a lake specially marked on the mountain Said.
