Chapter 163 (1/2)
Recalling the contents of those letters, Ping LAN added his own guess and told the general story.
Barrow is a very strong man, soft on the outside and hard on the inside.
Yan, a small country, has a small distinction between men and women. Women can also become officials and even have the right of inheritance.
King Rong has three sons and two daughters. Bailuo is a child of the common people. She has been ignored since she was a child. However, she is very smart and patient. She gave advice for King Rong several times before and got the favor of the emperor.
Rong Wang asked her to be a princess. Later, she got the news of the Xuecheng mine and hid her identity. She took a group of dead men to sneak into the Xuecheng.
Knowing that Wang Xunyuan is greedy for money and lust, she first seduces him with her beauty, then goes into Wang's house. On the wedding night, she shares cards with Wang Xunyuan. Facing a group of murderous dead men, Wang Xunyuan is almost scared to pee. How dare she say no?
He immediately vowed that he would obey Barrow's arrangement.
Bailuo's method is very good. First he intimidates, and then he promises to take him back to the state of Yan. If it's OK, he will play for the state of Yan. He is indispensable for his prosperity.
Wang Xunyuan was scared and excited. Since then, he listened to bailuo's advice and began to mine. All the gold and silver he dug up were secretly transported to the state of Yan.
It's hard for Ping LAN, a silent man, to say so much at once. His mouth was dry and he took another sip of his tea cup.
Xiao Jinshao's index finger knocked on the table and frowned, ”how did they smuggle out so much gold and silver? Even if they disguise as caravans, they will still be investigated when they cross the border
Ping LAN moistened his throat and sneered, ”what's the difficulty? Why don't you just melt the gold and silver and hide them in other containers? ”
This sentence, like a sharp touch, instantly revealed Xiao Jinshao.
He pointed and looked cold. ”Oh, that's a good way.”
”That ya ya said, the person who came to find bailuo and claimed to be her relative
Ping LAN: ”it's Rong Wang's person.”
