Chapter 74 Moving out of Ruyang Palace
Prince Ruyang scoffed: "Do you think our emperor will let go of the Xia family who helped Xuanyuan Yi? From what I know about him, the Xia family will not reach Liangzhou safely. If you don't believe me, just wait and see."
"Just throw away your confidante after you've used her!"
Xuanyuan Dong knew that what his father said was right. Although he liked that girl, power was more important!
"Father is right, it's my son who is obsessed with appearances!"
Prince Ruyang sat up straight and said, "Alright, stop thinking about these useless things. We'd better think about how to catch the thief who stole from the palace. Our emperor pays great attention to these things. Rather than letting others take the credit, it's better for us to take it."
Speaking of Xuanyuan Dong, he was also very troubled. He didn't know what kind of ability this person had to be able to empty so many places overnight.
"Over the past month, dozens of houses in the mansion have been emptied overnight. He wouldn't believe it was done by one person. He's more inclined to believe it was a gang. He just doesn't know what kind of gang it is that could be so elusive."
"My son is thinking that we should focus our investigation on the forces that have emerged recently. As long as they are organized, there will definitely be traces, which will make it much easier for us to investigate."
Prince Ruyang nodded with satisfaction: "This is a good idea. Send people to monitor. As long as the imperial items appear, we will follow the clues and catch them!"
Xia Xing'er was on the roof and could hear every conversation inside the house clearly.
Emperor Shunkang is really pitiful. He trusts and relies on this young uncle very much.
But this guy is actually also thinking about the seat under his butt.
In his previous life, this person didn't have time to do anything before Helian Zhi and his men took care of him. All the food, gold, silver, and weapons were taken away from them.
When Xia Xing'er regained her composure, she heard that they were actually trying to instigate others to deal with them.
She wanted to do something to distract them so that they could recuperate when they safely arrived at the place of exile.
Didn’t they just suspect that the palace was emptied by a gang? Then should she create a few gangs?
But where would she find some people?
Suddenly I remembered that when I was organizing my personal space, I seemed to see something like a puppet in a room.
Otherwise, I would take them out and use them, but I don’t know if I can use them.
She quickly entered the space and found the puppets in the corner of the room.
Ten wooden puppets, palm-sized, in different shapes, so cute.
Find the instructions in the corner, pick up a puppet, prick your finger with a needle, and drip the blood onto the center of the puppet's eyebrow.
After the puppet absorbed Xia Xing'er's blood, the puppet grew rapidly, reaching eight inches in size in a short while.
I don’t know what material the puppet is made of. The surface is wheat-colored, but its hair is really hard to describe. It looks a bit ugly, but the rest is really no different from a real person!
She and the puppet stared at each other, not knowing how to use it.
She tried to say, "Can you speak?"
The puppet nodded his big head: "Yes!"
Xia Xing'er asked in surprise: "Then do you know martial arts?"
The puppet nodded its big head again!
"Will he hit someone?"
The puppet nodded its big head again.
"Will he run away?"
The puppet nodded his big head.
Xia Xing'er patted its big head with satisfaction and said happily, "If you encounter someone who wants to hit you, fight if you can beat them, and run away if you can't. Got it?"
The puppet continued to nod its big head to indicate that it understood.
I didn't expect that this puppet would have intelligence.
Suddenly I feel that I lost out by buying the omnipotent robot. It would have been much better to use a puppet earlier.
She asked the puppets to help take care of the plants in the space and feed the animals.
When she left the space, Xuanyuan Dong had already returned to his own yard, and only King Ruyang was left in the room.
After taking a packet of sleeping pills, Prince Ruyang fainted!
She began to plunder things in the study, the pearwood carved bookshelves, the antique jades displayed on the shelves, the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, valuable and worthless things, she took them all away, leaving nothing behind!
Xia Xing'er found a locked box behind a painting. When she opened it, she found it was full of letters exchanged with other people.
Xia Xing'er took them out curiously and saw that some of them were letters he used to eliminate dissidents, and some were evidence of his communications with officials in the court.
She collected them all. This time she was not going to give them to Emperor Shun Kang, but to keep them for herself, perhaps they would be useful in the future.
Xia Xing'er went to the warehouse of Prince Ruyang's Mansion again. The things inside were comparable to half of the national treasury, but they were all hers.
After emptying the entire Ruyang Palace, she once again used her mental power to surround the entire palace and moved the entire palace into the system space.
"Xia Xing'er, couldn't you have informed me in advance? It almost hit me!"
A long roar came directly from Xia Xing'er's mind.
He looked at the people from Prince Ruyang's Mansion lying in the deep pit, without a trace of pity for them in his heart!
Prince Ruyang was obsessed with beauty and robbed beautiful women, forcing them to be separated from their wives and children, and even worse, some of them jumped into the moat!
He was in a high position of power, and when the people went to beat drums to complain, they needed to roll a nail board. Most people were already dying after rolling the nail board, and those who survived by chance could not do anything to him.
In just a few years, countless families had their wives and daughters taken away, and the dog emperor turned a blind eye to it.
She thought that emptying their house was too easy and that he should experience the feeling of being bullied.
She threw the puppet to the edge of the deep pit and hung a bundle behind him, which was filled with a lot of gold and silver.
The puppet just stood there stupidly, motionless, as if someone had pricked its acupoints.
He seemed to know that he was abandoned by his owner. How pitiful he was!
There were hundreds of people lying in such a huge pit. If you didn’t know, you would think they were corpses!
He has to stand there as long as the people in Ruyang Palace don’t wake up!
It was not until dawn that the people in Ruyang Palace slowly woke up.
A ray of early morning sunlight shone on the puppet, giving him a sense of mystery.
Everyone in the Ruyang Palace was still confused. Suddenly seeing this person, all the questions popped up in their minds: "Who is this person? Why is he here?"
They looked around blankly?
They were all stunned when they saw this?
Aren't they sleeping in the house?
What's going on with this big pit?
Where are they?
Poor them, they didn’t know that the entire Ruyang Palace was emptied out in one night. No, to be more precise, even the palace was moved away.
They looked at the puppet standing motionless in the sunlight, without even changing its movements, and were very curious. Was this a human?
Someone stood up and wanted to touch it, but the people next to him pulled him back!
"What are you doing? You don't know what that thing is, but you dare to touch it. Are you trying to kill yourself?"
The man also knew that his companions were doing this for his own good, so he retreated awkwardly.
At this moment, a loud male voice filled the entire pit.
“Ahhhhh…”
Everyone in the palace shrank back when they heard Prince Ruyang's scream.
All the guards in the palace went to Prince Ruyang.
Puppet Man: Should I continue standing or run?
Why didn't anyone hit me?
Come and hit me?
Everyone realized at this moment that they were in the Prince Ruyang's Mansion.
The thief who robbed the palace came again, and this time he even stole the prince's mansion.
Prince Ruyang came over surrounded by a group of guards.
King Ruyang was surprised when he saw the puppet carrying a bag and wearing clothes that he was familiar with.
Those are his clothes. Could this be the thief?
This person came to steal from Prince Ruyang's palace and refused to leave after stealing. Is he showing off his power?
Why did they come to his house to steal and even want to move his palace away? This is really too much.
He said to the guards around him, "What are you all still standing there for? Go and capture this little thief for me! He stole things from the palace! Don't let him get away. If he gets away, I will hold you accountable!"
Prince Ruyang was still thinking that since this little thief had stolen from him, once he caught him, he could ask for credit from the emperor, which would be more beneficial to him.
As soon as the order was issued, the deterrent effect was as strong as it could be, and all the guards rushed towards the puppet.
As the guards got closer, the puppet still didn't move, and the guards began to murmur in their hearts.
"Is this guy really stupid? So many people are rushing towards him, why is he just standing there like an idiot? Is he looking down on them?"
The more they thought about it, the more upset they became, and they felt a surge of energy in their hearts that pushed them forward.
They surrounded the puppet, but the man remained motionless, standing there without moving, and they began to murmur in their hearts again.
"This person can't be a fake, but he doesn't look fake!"
Just like that, a group of people surrounded the puppet, and no one moved!
The guard plucked up his courage and took another step forward, but the man still did not move.
He raised his knife and chopped at the puppet, then the puppet was fine, his knife rolled, and then the puppet broke through the guards surrounding him and ran away.
The guards were so shocked by this scene that no one thought of stopping the puppet when it ran away.
By the time they reacted, the puppet was already five hundred meters away from them.
The next scene is that a group of guards chase after the puppet with knives in hand, staging a game of chase and escape.
Then the puppet stood still again, and the guards surrounded him again, panting.
The captain of the guards, unwilling to believe in evil, raised his knife and chopped at the puppet. The knife rolled again, and this time the puppet did not run away. Instead, it punched the captain of the guards.
The punch was extremely powerful. The captain of the guards felt pain in his heart, liver and lungs, and his face turned pale.
Then another punch sent the captain of the guards flying out like a piece of rag, his eyes wide open, and he fainted.
Everyone was shocked. What they saw was that this man actually knocked the highly skilled captain of the guards away with just one punch.
There must be something wrong with their eyes. They closed their eyes and opened them again, but saw the same scene. They really didn't see it wrong. The captain of the guards was really knocked away by that man's punch.
The person who first wanted to go forward and touch it is now especially grateful to his companion. Fortunately, he gave him a hand, otherwise he would have been the one knocked away by the punch.
The captain of the guards, who was highly skilled in martial arts, was knocked unconscious. If it were him, he would be crippled if not dead!
The people who were surrounding the puppet retreated a long way, fearing that they would be hit by a punch as well.
"Oh my goodness, I'm so scared. How can this person be so powerful?"
"What the hell is this? Look at how the guard captain's sword is bent. The man's clothes are just a little torn, nothing else is wrong!"
"No wonder he stole something and just stood here. This guy... is so scary! Do you think he'll kill us all?"
"Has he mastered the legendary Iron Shirt and is now invulnerable to swords and guns?"
"You're overthinking it. There's no such thing as kung fu in the world!"
"Then how do you explain this? Why is the knife broken, but he's still standing there?"
Everyone was so frightened that their legs were shaking, and no one dared to take another step forward.
The puppet looked at the people around him. Why were they hitting him? How could he fight back if they didn't hit him?
The owner said that if you are hit, you should fight back, and if you can't beat him, you should run away. Just now, I ran away and was hit.
So could he take the initiative to fight them?
The master didn’t seem to say that we can’t fight, so that means we can fight!
He stared at the people around him with his blue eyes, not knowing where to start.
Everyone in the palace was frightened by his gaze and wanted to run, but they didn't know where to run!
Every time the puppet took a step forward, everyone else took a step back. With the example of the captain of the guards there, no one dared to go forward and attack.
The puppet took another step forward, and everyone took several steps back. Then they stepped on each other and accidentally fell down.
They wanted to get up, but their legs were so weak that they couldn't get up!
They were praying in their hearts, God, Jade Emperor, Buddha, please come and save us, we don’t want to die yet!
The puppet looked at the people falling down and didn't know what to do. What should he do if his master didn't tell him about the situation?
Suddenly he saw King Ruyang standing there. Everyone was squatting on the ground, but he was the only one standing there upright. He was really conspicuous.
Okay, it’s him, beat him up.
King Ruyang watched the puppet getting closer and closer to him, his legs swinging, and he didn't even notice the warm current flowing down between his legs.
That’s right, King Ruyang was scared to death, and the puppet was still approaching. At this moment, he was no longer as calm and proud as the previous moment.
He knelt straight down in front of the puppet and said, "Hero, please let me go. I don't want anything anymore. You can take it all."
Puppet...
How can I beat him like this? I should just beat him up and then let him run away. It’s their business whether they chase him or not. That’s how it should be.
He raised his fist and rushed towards the wealthy face of Prince Ruyang.
With a "click", King Ruyang's head turned 180 degrees and five or six teeth fell out of his mouth.
Before she could even scream, her head fell to the ground and she fainted!
When everyone saw this, they became even more frightened.
They all knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Hero, please let me go. I'm just a servant. Don't waste your energy. I'm not worth your effort!"
"Hero, please let me go. I have only one worthless life. I have elderly parents and young children to take care of. Please let me go!"
The puppet man is really just a puppet, without any emotions. He is at a loss and doesn't understand their pleas.
