Nanhua had already followed Lu Xian and Cai Heng to check out the warehouses of the two mansions.
To be honest, she was quite shocked and her calm expression almost failed to hold.
She was a little suspicious whether those warehouses had been used to store things! They were so empty and so clean! The key point was that there was no trace at all.
Cai Heng was secretly impressed by Nanhua's calm expression. He almost fainted after seeing it just now! He was also extremely shocked and killed several servants who were watching the warehouse on the spot.
Then he thought again, the items stolen were from his house and Lu Xian's house, and Nanhua did not suffer any loss, so it was understandable that he was not shocked.
He asked tentatively.
"Mr. Nanhua, did you see clearly who the other person was at that time? Or what characteristics did he have?"
Nanhua frowned.
"The main thing is that there is only this one suspect and no other clues.
Although there aren't many things in my warehouse, and they're not worth much, I need to work for my master, and I can't do it without some money!"
"That's right! Mr. Nanhua, if you want to work in officialdom, you can't make any progress without money!" Lu Xian also had a bitter look on his face. He was going to marry a concubine in a few days, but he couldn't even come up with a decent betrothal gift. How could he get married?
"I didn't see that person clearly!" Nanhua said.
In the end, she still didn't mention Ye Xinran. First of all, she didn't think Ye Xinran had such a great ability to empty the two mansions overnight. There was another point, she couldn't do anything to Wucheng Palace. Even if she injured Gu Yanming last time, it was just a minor injury, not a major one.
"I only know that it was a man in black, probably a man!" Nanhua lied seriously, "It should be someone I haven't seen before, so I really can't guess who he is."
Cai Heng and Lu Xian were very depressed when they heard this. Now the clue was completely cut off. The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Now they really became honest officials with clean hands!
Nanhua frowned and decided to solve their current predicament first.
"First, each of you go to Tongyuan Bank and withdraw 100,000 taels of silver for temporary use."
Their eyes lit up, and they both bowed in gratitude and said, "Mr. Xie Nanhua."
"No need to thank me, just do your job well for your master!"
…
It was more difficult for Ye Xinran to break through this time than in the past. It was not until the afternoon when a foul smell came that Ye Xinran woke up slowly. He was instantly nauseated by the smell of his own stench.
Seeing that there was no one in the room, and hearing Jianshu and Daoqin talking quietly at the door, she couldn't bear it anymore, so she went straight into the space to take a shower and change clothes. She also had a meal of self-heated fried meat and rice, and then she left the space carefully.
She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was still alone in the room.
Then I heard Jianshu talking to Daoqin in a low voice.
"Don't you think it's strange? After I followed my horse Xiaohong and the princess to the brothel yesterday, I looked around the brothel stables, but I didn't see my horse Xiaohong! Later, I looked for her in the vicinity, but still couldn't find her! When I came back with the princess last night, I didn't see her riding a horse either! Tell me, where did the horse go? Why did it suddenly disappear again?"
Daoqin looked listless, glanced at him and said, "Then why don't you just ask the princess directly if she rode your beloved horse Xiaohong? Wouldn't that be easier?"
Jianshu touched his nose guiltily, "After I found out that the princess visited the brothel, I secretly went to find the prince. I was afraid that the princess would find out and punish me!"
Dao Qin looked at him with a subtle look, "It's really unkind of you to do this! If it was the prince visiting a brothel, would you also inform the princess?"
"Of course not!" Jian Shu immediately retorted! "I don't think the prince will go either!"
Dao Qin glanced at him and stopped talking.
Ye Xinran raised her eyebrows when she heard this. It turned out that Gu Yanming suddenly came yesterday because Jianshu had complained to her! How could she not deal with him?
Thinking of this, Ye Xinran got up and walked out of the room.
Jianshu was startled and smiled, "Princess, you're awake!" He felt so guilty, could the princess have heard him? Would he end up in a miserable state?
Ye Xinran nodded, "Where's the prince?"
"The prince saw that you haven't woken up yet, so he asked us to help keep watch over you. The prince will go out to do some work first." Jianshu said cautiously.
Ye Xinran nodded and looked at the sword book again, "I'm going to my master now. If the prince comes back, tell him!"
Jianshu quickly responded!
Ye Xinran turned around and prepared to leave, but suddenly turned back and looked at Jian Shudao.
“By the way, I like to eat horse meat, so I asked the servant of the brothel to take the horse you mentioned to the kitchen!
By the way, didn’t you eat some? How did it taste? "
Jianshu froze, thinking that he did enter the box later and had dinner with the prince and princess. There was a big pot of meat here, and he ate it and thought it was delicious! That, that's pork? It turned out to be his Xiaohong's meat!
Jianshu wanted to cry but had no tears. Woohoo, his Xiaohong! His beloved horse was actually eaten by him!
Ye Xinran curled her lips, glanced at him, and left happily.
Dare to tip her off, humph! Not beating him up would be the least of his punishment!
Dao Qin watched from the side without reacting. Then he thought of something and stepped forward to report.
"Princess, I have a few things to report to you."
Ye Xinran nodded, "What's the matter?"
"Dong Yishu asked the exile team to rest in Xiangcheng for a few days, prepare some supplies, and then set off in three days."
Ye Xinran raised her eyebrows. No wonder she got up at this time. It doesn’t matter!
But this is just right. She was originally thinking about how to stay a few more days, but she didn't expect Dong Yishu to be so sensible! It saved her from doing anything to him!
"Anything else?" Ye Xinran asked.
"In the morning, Meishu was picked up by the people guarding the general's mansion, and Meiying followed in the dark. Meishu asked her subordinates to tell you that she will complete the mission."
Ye Xinran frowned and nodded. She thought that there were two people, one in the open and one in the dark, so there shouldn't be any problem. Nothing would go wrong.
"Also, last night I met Zhu Qian, the eldest daughter of the Zhu family. She also came to Xiangcheng. Last night, she and I went to visit the old prince and the old princess together! She said that she would come to see you when she is free!"
Ye Xinran was surprised. Did Zhu Qian come too? "Oh, where does she live? Did she say when she would come?"
Dao Qin blushed and said, "Miss Zhu and I have agreed that whenever you are free, I will go to her house to inform her."
Ye Xinran blinked her eyes, looked at Dao Qin who looked very excited, and asked curiously, "Dao Qin, do you like Zhu Qian?"
Dao Qin's body stiffened and her face turned even redder!
"No, no, Princess! No, you misunderstood!"
Ye Xinran looked at him with amusement and asked tentatively, "What do you think of Miss Zhu?"
Daoqin lowered her head and answered honestly, "Yeah, that's right, very cute!"
