Chapter 89: I'm in a Good Mood

When Qin Chuchu returned to the hall, she saw that the Living King of Hell still had half of the account book in front of him. It would probably be dark by the time he finished reading it.

She sat back in her seat, picked up the teacup beside her, and drank the tea leisurely.

When I think of the treasures I just received in the space, I feel so happy that I don’t feel bored sitting here anymore.

If she looked at Feng Qi at this moment, she would find that he was staring at her.

Seeing the princess so happy, could it be that she got some treasure?

Also staring at her was Zhou Quan, although he was standing next to Han Muchen properly.

But his eyes would look at Qin Chuchu from time to time. He didn't expect that Prime Minister Qin's daughter was so beautiful.

She has been in exile for at least five or six months, but her skin is still so tender and fair, like a ripe peach, making people want to take a bite.

But his deep scheming still allowed him to control himself. Even though he felt very itchy inside, he would only steal a glance occasionally.

But Han Muchen still caught it. Zhou Quan's eyes were full of desire when he looked at the woman, which made him feel very uncomfortable and his face became a little colder.

It was not until dark that Han Muchen finished reading the last account book.

"Your Majesty, I wonder if I have missed anything. Please enlighten me."

Zhou Quan still looked humble, but he had already cursed the man countless times in his heart.

I ended up standing there for the entire afternoon, and my calves are cramped.

However, it is really impossible to discredit King Chen. He actually read through so many account books, and he did so very carefully. No wonder the current emperor likes him so much. He is indeed calm and careful in his work.

If I hadn't prepared in advance, I might have been exposed today.

"Not bad!" Han Muchen nodded, looking very satisfied.

Zhou Quan also pretended to be very happy.

"Your Highness, thank you for your kind words! Please wait a moment, Your Highness and Princess. I will go down and arrange the dinner."

After saying that, he made a move to walk out, but was stopped by the man.

“No need!”

Han Muchen looked at Zhou Quan who was standing in front of him with a humble expression. It was obvious that he had no intention of letting him dine here, otherwise he would not have asked someone to arrange it now.

However, he had no intention of staying here. Although this was his fiefdom, it did not seem as safe as the inn at the moment.

Now that I have been exiled to my own fiefdom, it seems that I have to be more careful in the future.

"How can that be! Your Highness has traveled a long way, and I have a responsibility..."

"Master Zhou, since the prince doesn't intend to stay here, he has his own plans. You just need to prepare the tax money."

Feng Qi interrupted Zhou Quan's words. He was too lazy to watch him pretending to be nice. He also knew that his master would not stay here overnight, so he wanted to leave early.

Although thirty thousand taels of silver is not a lot, even the smallest mosquito leg is still meat, not to mention that they are short of silver now.

"Yes, yes, I'll prepare it right away."

Zhou Quan nodded repeatedly in agreement, turned around and went to make arrangements, but he felt very contemptuous in his heart.

Sending them away with just 30,000 taels is no different from sending away beggars.

Qin Chuchu looked at Feng Qi with admiration. He was really good at making a living. Although thirty thousand taels was not a lot, it was good to get it back.

I'm just a little worried. I don't know if the 30,000 taels will have to be taken from the vault. If that's the case, the secrets of the vault will be exposed.

After waiting for a long time with trepidation, Zhou Quan ordered someone to bring over a stack of banknotes.

Looking at the stack of banknotes, Qin Chuchu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the matter of the vault was not discovered, but she felt a little depressed when looking at the banknotes.

I don’t know where he got so many banknotes, or whether he still has them. I wonder if this guy has another vault.

After receiving the banknotes, the group left the government office. When they returned to the inn, it was already dark.

"Your Highness, that Zhou Quan is truly despicable. He only took 30,000 taels to fool us."

As soon as he returned to the room, Feng Liu couldn't hold it in anymore and started complaining.

Han Muchen looked calm, sitting at the table and tapping his fingers rhythmically.

"Keep him first!"

After checking the accounts today, he found that those account books were not new. It seemed that Zhou Quan had made preparations in advance.

How could such a cunning person reveal his true colors so quickly?

Now that I have returned to my fiefdom, I believe that he will always get the chance. However, I still feel sad when I think that the 500,000 will soon go into Han Mulei's pocket.

Thinking of this, he looked at Feng Liu who was standing beside him.

"Order someone to keep an eye on it. If Zhou Quan really gives the silver to Han Mulei, just take it back."

Since there is no evidence to prove his wrongdoing, he will do it secretly. If you want to spend his money, you will lose your life.

"Yes, I will arrange it right away."

Seeing Feng Liu go out, Qin Chuchu rubbed her cheeks, feeling indescribably proud.

After staying in the inn for another two days, the cold wave finally passed. During these two days, Han Muchen did not stay in the house like before.

I spent most of my time in the lobby on the first floor, listening to people talking about local things.

Now that he has returned to his fiefdom and knows Zhou Quan's character, he naturally wants to pay attention and understand the sufferings of the people.

The Living King of Hell was not in the room, which made Qin Chuchu very happy. She first ran to the space to count the silver.

As a modern person, she had no concept of gold and silver, and thought that what she put into the space was 500,000 taels of silver.

But after she used a small scale and a calculator to weigh it, she found out that it was actually 900,000 taels of silver, not counting the jewels.

I really didn't expect that Zhou Quan and his brother didn't tell the truth. I actually secretly kept so much. Now it seems that it was all saved for her. I can't help but be so happy.

Once this person is happy, he tends to forget himself and has almost booked the kitchen himself in the past two days.

There were nourishing soups and stewed chickens, and the food supply increased sharply.

This made Han Muchen even more suspicious that she was the one who stole from Han Mulei's vault.

Thinking back to what Feng Qi said a few days ago, I wonder what good stuff this woman got at the government office, otherwise she wouldn't be so boastful.

On the second day after the cold wave passed, everyone started their journey and left the inn after breakfast.

Before everyone got on the carriage, they saw a commotion inside and everyone turned around to look.

I saw some men dressed as guards searching house to house.

"Go and take a look!" Han Muchen looked at Feng Qi.

Feng Qi came back after a while.

"Your Highness, they say some bandits have come here, and they're searching every house for them!"

“…………” Han Muchen frowned slightly.

He glanced at Qin Chuchu, who was a little proud, and said nothing. He picked up the freshly brewed tea and looked in a good mood with his eyes curved.

Seeing those guards searching house to house like idiots, Qin Chuchu was in an extremely good mood.

They worked themselves to death but never imagined that all the silver and money had been put into her space, and the bandit they were looking for was sitting in the carriage at this time.

When I was in a good mood, I couldn't stop it. I couldn't suppress my excitement all the way and kept humming to myself.

What she didn't expect was that a dangerous situation was waiting for them.
