The 246th chapter Dongshan Wangfu Monthly Pass)
That's why it took them so long to get here.
Jiayin also understood this through their conversation. If they walked all the way, it would indeed take such a long time to get here.
Although they were walking all the way, after all, they were all practitioners. Even if they stopped and stopped along the way, and occasionally stopped to play, they could still walk faster than them.
Knowing that they didn't encounter any other dangers, Jiayin felt relieved. After all, she was the one who rescued them, so they should pay more attention to them.
Jiayin thought about it for a while, and then explored the Dongshan County Sheriff's Mansion, also known as the Prince's Mansion with a different surname, Dongshan Prince's Mansion.
This king with a different surname is Liu, and his name is Liu Ye. His great-grandfather once conquered the world with the founding emperor, and was later named King of Dongshan. It was hereditary and his fiefdom was Dongshan County.
By Liu Ye's generation, he was already the fourth generation King of Dongshan.
However, they heard on the road that this generation of Dongshan kings was incompetent in culture and military affairs. They did not inherit the mantle of the old Dongshan kings at all, but only relied on their ancestors to live their lives.
However, in this way, the people in power felt more at ease with him, and rewards were sent to him from time to time.
This is easy to understand. There is no need to worry about him being both civil and military, resourceful and supported by others. It will be troublesome in the future to support his troops and respect himself.
I guess this is also the life-saving wisdom of the Liu family. Each generation is not as good as the last, but safer.
If one generation becomes stronger than the next, just because their ancestors were able to conquer the country with the founding emperor, then they themselves should also be able to conquer the country. Then the emperor really couldn't sleep.
Generally speaking, as long as they are not those meritorious officials who were hurriedly killed by the emperor, the descendants of the founding heroes will be raised to a lesser extent.
It is also to protect the continuity of one's family inheritance, even if it is not abolished, it must appear to be abolished on the surface.
These superiors may not understand, but the other party knows the current affairs so well, and they also want this attitude. As long as the attitude is adopted, they will not kill everyone. This is a tacit understanding between the two parties.
Jiayin probed into the Dongshan Palace with her spiritual consciousness and found that the entire palace was very quiet. Apparently there were not many people living in it. Many rooms were empty and no one was living there.
Jiayin scanned around and saw that King Dongshan was resting in his concubine's room. Although this concubine's courtyard was a side courtyard, it was very exquisite and gorgeous. There were pavilions, pavilions, and many strange things in the garden.
Flowers and grasses, I think they are very popular.
The main courtyard where the Queen of Starlight Kingdom's sister, Princess Dongshan lives, is much inferior. Apart from being large, it has no advantages. The whole courtyard is dusty and lifeless.
There is also a small Buddhist hall built behind the main house. It feels like a person who is disheartened and worships Buddha all the year round without caring about worldly affairs.
However, when Jiayin peeked into the Buddhist hall, he almost laughed out loud.
This is really interesting. There is a Buddha statue in the Buddhist hall. It is a big-bellied Buddha with a grin and a cheerful smile. There is a simple altar table and a futon. There is nothing else, not even an incense burner or a wooden fish.
But Jiayin's consciousness penetrated the wall behind the Buddha statue and saw that there was something else behind it!
I saw a mezzanine at the back, with a square foot of space inside, filled with rare treasures. Every piece of it would be priceless!
What kind of Buddhist temple is this? It's obviously a treasure pavilion! It's really interesting that it's still covered in the guise of a Buddhist temple.
On the contrary, if this is the case, the thieves will not come here to look for them. Who would have thought that a place where people eat fast and chant Buddha's name would hide so many worldly things?
Princess Dongshan, the younger sister of the Queen of Xingmang Kingdom, was sleeping soundly on the soft pillows of the high bed. There were two maids staying outside the room, one sitting at the table and the other catching up on her sleep on the couch, ready at any time.
The furnishings in the house are elegant and exquisite without being too high-profile. At first glance, they don't seem very valuable, just like the residence of a mistress who is not favored and needs to eat fast and chant Buddha but still lives.
What does this mean? Jiayin thought, this was probably done by King Dongshan for others to see.
The really valuable things were placed in the Buddhist hall of the main wife, and then rested with the concubine, pretending to not like the main wife very much.
If someone from above wanted to investigate him, they would definitely not think of secretly investigating his unpopular wife.
As it happens, all his important things are placed there, which is really a good way to hide from others.
Jiayin admired herself and found that she now understood the twists and turns of ordinary people more and more.
If she didn't have spiritual consciousness, she would probably be deceived as well.
After all, the main courtyard is very simple inside and outside, but the concubine's courtyard is extremely exquisite.
But in this case, it will not be easy for the former Queen of Starlight Kingdom and her group to use their sister and brother-in-law to help them regain power and take revenge.
After all, the King of Dongshan is hiding his power and biding his time. How can he stand up for his "unpopular" sister-in-law, who is not favored by his wife? Moreover, it is also related to the affairs of other countries, and it is too late to hide.
Jiayin thought for a while and felt that this could prevent the former queen and her party from running into trouble when going to Dongshan Palace.
If the King of Dongshan was a bit more evil, he might not allow the former queen to see his sister, or even send a message directly to Starlight Kingdom.
Then the former Queen and her gang may be in trouble.
So after weighing the situation, Jiayin sent a message to the former Queen of Xingmang Kingdom who was still asleep: "You'd better not go to Dongshan Prince's Mansion. King Dongshan is in some trouble now. If you go to seek help, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get what you want."
The former queen was thinking about the source of the previous voice, when she heard the dragon god's voice suddenly coming from her mind. She was stunned at first, and then became anxious.
Hearing what the Dragon God said, there must be a reason. They don't have the capital to take risks now, so it's best to obey the Dragon God's will.
He quickly asked in his mind: "Lord Dragon God, what should we do? Although there are no pursuers behind us now, we don't have official guides, so hiding like this is not an option."
Fortunately, when entering the county town of Dongshan County, you only need to pay the entrance fee and do not need the inspector to show you the way. If you go to another county town, you may not even be able to enter the city.
The most important thing is that they don't want to live in hiding, they want to overthrow Yun Sheng, avenge their husband, and take the throne back to their son.
Jiayin said to her directly: "Although you say it is a family matter, it is also a national matter. That Yun Sheng looks ambitious and does not look like he can be a stable leader of the Starlight Kingdom.
If you know that he has connections with other countries or has any unfavorable intentions for the Great Yan Kingdom, you can go to the capital to find the third prince.
The third prince is now in power, and he is much more enlightened than his father, so he might be able to help you. Of course, you must also make some favorable conditions to him."
