Chapter 294 Creating a Sense of Crisis for Mouse Six
The man in black who reported shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Ouyang Qing laughed: "Doctor Du! You are really capable. You didn't find the silver from the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion during the house search. It turns out you took it all away."
No wonder the people sent said that there was nothing in Pingyang Marquis's mansion and confiscated 200 taels of silver. He didn't believe it at the time, but this time he really believed it.
With Doctor Du around, it would be strange if the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion could confiscate any silver.
Nothing was seized from the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion in Liang County City, but a lot was seized from the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion in the capital, including gold, silver, jewelry, land and shops, banknotes, antiques, slaves and maids, which were enough for him to bribe officials everywhere.
He originally wanted to seize some valuables from the Pingyang Marquis Mansion in Liangjun City to offset the more than one million taels of silver he lost last time, but he came up empty-handed as Doctor Du got there first.
The Princess of Dongchen Kingdom is becoming more and more interesting. She is not only an excellent doctor, but also good at strategy. More importantly, she is the Princess of Dongchen Kingdom appointed by the new monarch. If you can make friends with her, it is equivalent to making friends with the monarch of Dongchen.
Making friends with the King of Dongchen is equivalent to a breakthrough in obtaining the musket. How could he miss such a good opportunity?
He wants to be friends with Du Wanwan at all costs.
You must not offend her, you must not offend her. You must protect her everywhere. Only by making her feel his kindness and unable to live without him, can you win her over.
"Go down! Send someone to keep an eye on them, and don't let the prince's men get close." Ouyang Qing waved at the man in black, "Remember not to let Doctor Du know of your presence. She's very smart, and if she finds out, it could easily lead to misunderstandings. Is this Dongchen Kingdom's princess special?"
Du Wanwan: “…”
Really? You have an opinion? If you have an opinion, please keep it to yourself. You have no right to talk nonsense.
Du Wanwan in the inn didn't have to wait long before Lao Shuliu came back.
"Oh my! There are a lot of good things in the old lady of the Ye family's house. I, the sixth old man, will eat and drink my fill and slip away."
Du Wanwan squatted at the door and asked Lao Shuliu, "Are you doing anything else? Are you just eating?"
"Yes, I turned all the rats of the Ye family into my subjects. I taught them how to steal the food hidden by the old woman." Mouse Six patted his head and smiled with his two big front teeth showing. "Squeak! My rat subjects all praised me for being smart. They worshipped me as their king."
Yaya gave Mouse Six a glass of water, and he almost fainted while holding the glass.
"Thank you, Master! Only a smart mouse like me is worthy of enjoying this water."
Du Wanwan snatched it away, and Lao Shuliu's laughter stopped abruptly. He looked at her in confusion: "Master! What did Lao Shuliu do wrong?"
"You're drifting."
"I'm not floating." Mouse Six looked down at his two thin feet. "I'm still standing on the floor. How could I be floating?"
Black Cat Three came out from nowhere and pinned Mouse Six down with one claw: "You still say you are not arrogant? What's the point of conquering the rats in the old house of the Ye family? If you have the ability to conquer all the rats in the capital and have them call you king, then you are not arrogant.
"When I, your cat master, go out, I almost conquer all the cats in the east of the city. Do you think I am proud? Am I floating?"
Du Wanwan handed the water in her hand to Black Cat Three: "Did you find out anything?"
Letting Mouse Six go, Black Cat Three picked up the cup and licked up all the water in one breath, leaving no drop for Mouse Six. Poor Mouse Six could only watch helplessly, not daring to say anything.
"We haven't found out anything yet, but we know that the Prince of Qi is the most powerful prince in the capital. Even the Crown Prince is no match for him."
Putting down the cup, Black Cat Three raised his head and glanced at Mouse Six who was picking at the cup sadly, with a mocking look of a winner in his eyes.
"Take your people to make trouble for the old lady of the Ye family tonight. Find out where her house is and squat on her roof and shout." Du Wanwan turned around and instructed Mouse Six on the ground, "Let your people try to find out the old lady's secrets. If you do a good job, I will give you water. If you don't do a good job, I will never give you water again."
Mouse Six held his front legs and bowed to Du Wanwan: "I will arrange it right away and make sure it is done."
"Also, you and Black Cat Three must break into Prince Qi's mansion as soon as possible. I want to control Prince Qi's every move." Du Wanwan's eyes revealed ferocity. "To me, he is an enemy. If I don't strike first, I will be the one to suffer."
"Meow! I'll be there right away." The black cat called out three times and ran away.
Mouse Six hesitated for a moment, took a few steps, came back, looked up and asked curiously: "Master! What is floating?"
"Arrogant and arrogant."
Mouse Six lowered his head and thought for a while, muttering softly: "Do I have it? I don't think I have it?"
"You do." Du Wanwan heard its muttering and pointed out mercilessly, "You are smarter than your kind, that's because you have good luck and met me, your master, not because you are smarter than your kind.
If I give up on you and train another young mouse, maybe he will be more capable than you. Remember, only by keeping your feet on the ground can you accomplish great things. If you float in the air, sooner or later you will be struck by lightning. "
After hearing what its master said, the mouse ran away without a trace, and a voice was heard from afar: "I will never float again."
Du Wanwan sneered: "Little guy! Can't I cure you? Dare to try to float one?"
If you don't give it a sense of crisis, you don't know what kind of trouble it will cause. You have to tame it first so that you can use it properly later.
When Huang Goujiu came back, he looked outside the inn warily: "Master! There are men in black watching your room."
"Found it?" Du Wanwan not only gave the yellow dog Nine Spirits Spring Water, but also asked Yaya to give it a big chicken leg. "Don't go anywhere after you finish eating. Keep an eye on the man in black. If he dares to attack me, scream loudly."
"Okay! I'll go after I finish eating."
Dogs have always been a very loyal tribe, and Du Wanwan especially trusts Yellow Dog Nine. Knowing that someone is watching outside, Du Wanwan takes Xiao Qi and Aunt Hua out of the space just in case, and puts them back tomorrow morning.
With them guarding me, I can sleep peacefully.
After everything was arranged, Du Wanwan walked into the house, slowly lay down beside her son, and closed her eyes.
There was a lot of commotion in front of the Ye family's old house, and Prince Ouyang Jing also learned that the family of Pingyang Marquis had entered the capital. However, he did not dare to come to see Du Wanwan and Shen Xiangxiu blatantly, let alone send someone to come, for fear that the King of Qi would find out and report it to his father.
It doesn’t matter if the emperor punishes him, but he is afraid that the emperor will make things difficult for them.
Endure anger for a moment and avoid worry for a hundred days.
Zhong Yuan mentioned many times in his letters how outstanding his daughter Wanwan was, and how she was a rare and extraordinary woman. He firmly believed that even without his support, the women of Pingyang Marquis's mansion could survive in Kyoto.
A woman who could threaten to split up the family, drive a carriage out of the Ye family's old house without hesitation, and live in an inn would never be easily defeated by difficulties.
