Chapter 485 The fifth one?
The housekeeper closed his eyes and made his heart aside, saying, "Your Highness, our mine in the West Mountain has been discovered. Jingzhao Yin is already sending someone to investigate. It seems that he can't be saved anymore. Your Highness should make plans early!"
The prince's eyes turned dark and he almost fell to the ground. The mine in the west mountain?
This is also his lifeblood.
The imperial court strictly regulated iron ore and did not allow private mining. Any places with iron ore would be strictly controlled.
Five years ago, he was still in the vassal state. People who he planted in the capital accidentally discovered that there was an iron ore in the west mountain. Although there were not many, the weapons mined to arm a private army were enough.
So he immediately bought all the land with someone and sent someone to guard it closely, just secretly mining it. In order to avoid being discovered, he was always very careful.
Two years ago, he became the crown prince and his wish was fulfilled. If he reported this matter to the court, it would be a minor achievement, but he was greedy at that time.
First, he knew that the secret of this matter would not be discovered, and second, the iron ore he had obtained was released like this. He believed that no one was so generous!
Keep this iron ore and he has another trump card.
Now, if this mine is discovered, as long as Jingzhao Yin reports it, it will be immediately taken back to the court.
Not only can he not continue to mine, he also has to cut off the clues on his side.
Otherwise, this would not be just a matter of causing trouble, but this is what really makes the father and emperor taboo.
The person in charge of that mineral is also his confidant. How could this matter be leaked? He had less than half of the iron ore mining, but now it is going to be taken away by the court. As long as he thinks about it, it will be enough for him to feel distressed.
He found something wrong and looked at the butler with his lifeless eyes: "Why do these things happen one by one at a time? What else did you not say?"
The housekeeper said tremblingly: "Dian, Your Highness, our property in the capital is fine, and 80% of those hidden things have already happened!"
The prince only felt sweet in the center of his throat, and his qi and blood were surging, and a mouthful of blood squirted to the ground.
What can be found on the surface is nothing more than some industries that are hidden. Those hidden are his foundation, his trump card, and his greatest reliance!
His eyes were dark, and now he felt heartbroken and heartache, and he felt pain everywhere. He said angrily: "Did you find out who did it? I want to catch him, tear him out of pieces, smear the bones and raise ashes, so that he will die without a place to bury him!"
The housekeeper was almost crying.
This was almost all happened one day and one night yesterday. Because they were confined and unable to go out, he only got the news today. It’s dark now, where can I check it?
But this matter is indeed of great importance, and he is ready to bear His Highness's anger!
The prince's eyes were so angry that he smashed the teacup and teapot in anger. What tea should he taste? At this time, how could he have any thoughts?
The housekeeper watched him vent his vent, fearing that the thing would hit him, but he didn't dare to leave.
Finally, the prince vented his anger and became soft. He didn't even have the strength to sit back on the chair, so he sat down softly on the ground, angry and heartbroken.
He knew very well his methods. Over the years, he had been doing everything and was careful everywhere. Those hidden industries were even more careful and careful. Few people knew it was his.
But now, it's been turned on by others.
Who is it? Have such great ability, such great ability, and have such great courage to go against him?
The housekeeper thought about it and then thought, and finally plucked up his courage: "Your Highness, according to the news that the manager on Xishan had spread his palms before he was captured, as if he was revealing a message!"
"Split your palm?" The prince dazed and crossed his palm, looked and looked, thought and thought. Finally, his face suddenly changed color and exclaimed in dismay: "Five? Lao Wu?"
The housekeeper was also the confidant who followed him from the vassal state to the capital. He knew who he was talking about and said in a shock: "He, isn't he in Yunzhou?"
After the prince exclaimed, he was a little stunned. Yes, Lao Wu is in Yunzhou. Lao Wu doesn’t want to go back to the capital at all, so it is impossible to have power in the capital.
But who did this?
No, who else can there be besides Lao Wu?
It was because he killed Lao Wu's son, which made Lao Wu heartbroken, so Lao Wu also made him heartbroken.
At this moment, the second housekeeper hurried over and stood outside the door, his voice trembling: "Your Highness, something big... is not good..."
Another one!
The prince was shocked and angry, and his face turned dark and said angrily: "Speak well!"
The second housekeeper said incoherently: "Prince, something big happened... The second young master is not good..."
The second young master? Of course, the second young master they mentioned was not Hunpo Yuxuan, but the second young master of the crown prince's mansion and the second son of Huangfu Chi, who was the second son of Huangfu Jing!
When the prince was still in the vassal state, Huangfu Jing and Huangfu Chi were his right-hand man. The two brothers could inherit his cunning and viciousness. The things he planned over the years would not have been able to go so smoothly without these two sons' help.
Now that I have lost a Huangfu Jing, I heard that Huangfu Chi is not good either.
After experiencing Chunhua Tower being burned, the iron ore was discovered, and was about to be taken back by the court, the industries they secretly operated had one after another. I just thought that the blow he was hit hard enough. I didn't expect that there would be a bigger blow waiting for him.
He didn't care about his embarrassing look at this moment and said tremblingly: "Chier, what's wrong with him?"
His heart had sunk to the ground. Is it not enough to lose one son, and he still has to lose a second one? These two are his adults and can help him with his arms.
The second housekeeper said with lingering fear: "The second young master was thrown in the back alley of the mansion. When he was found, he was covered in blood and was unconscious."
This means that I am still alive? I hope arises in my heart: "Where is the doctor? Have you hired a doctor? I will go to find an imperial doctor. Where is Chi'er now? I will go see him!"
The second housekeeper said: "It has been sent to his yard and has sent someone to hire an imperial physician."
The prince got up and ran away.
The eldest butler and the second butler quickly followed behind.
Everyone trotted to the yard where Huangfu Chi lived.
The yard is busy.
When they found Huangfu Chi, they immediately carried the person in carefully, changed the bloody clothes on his body to clean up the dirt on his body.
They found that Huangfu Chi was beaten up. He vomited all the blood on his body.
It was a bit exaggerated to see the blood all over his body, but the blood splattered on him was indeed shocking.
The prince arrived in a hurry. Huangfu Chi had already cleaned up his body and lay on the bed with a pale face and no sound.
The prince rushed to the bed and called out, "Chier..."
