Emperor Tianwu's heart trembled, and his voice trembled slightly.
"Kong Zongli, how is the national treasury?"
"Your Majesty!" Kong Zongli cried out in a tearful voice, "The six treasuries are all as empty as the throne room..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kong Zongli burst into tears and collapsed to the ground.
Are his nine clansmen going to die today?
Kong Zongli's words were like a bolt from the blue, and Emperor Tianwu could hardly believe his ears.
This is not a punishment from heaven, it is a punishment that will make him, the emperor, infamous for eternity!
All six treasuries are empty. How can he explain this to the people of the world?
The imperial palace has become a deserted palace, the six treasuries are empty, he is no longer an emperor, he should just wash his hands and beg on the streets...
Emperor Tianwu stood unsteadily and swayed for a moment, and all he could see was white hair.
He turned palely to look at the two huge words on the boulder, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted...
"Bang!"
Emperor Tianwu fell straight down, and the dust on the ground was instantly raised.
All the civil and military officials knelt on the ground with their heads bowed, and no one noticed anything unusual about Emperor Tianwu.
It was not until they heard a bang and the dust on the ground was kicked up that everyone suddenly raised their heads and shouted in panic.
"emperor...."
"Doctor, go call the doctor..."
"Someone come, help me..."
“…”
........
"......Ah~!" Lu Man snorted softly and turned over because of the stinging sunlight.
When she turned over, she felt something hard underneath her and there was a smell of earth in her nose.
Lu Man frowned, twitched her eyelids, and opened her eyes in confusion.
The moment she opened her eyes, she closed them again immediately because of the flash of sunlight.
Lu Man raised her hands to cover her eyes with a confused look on her face, then opened her eyes again.
Looking around, there was a bright sky above her head, and Lu Man's eyes were full of astonishment.
Is she sleepwalking?
I clearly slept in my room last night.
Before going to bed, they listened to their seventh brother and locked the doors and windows tightly.
How come he ran outside after a nap?
Lu Man let out a long sigh and turned over to sit up.
When she sat up, she saw her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law were all lying not far from her.
Collective sleepwalking! ?
Lu Man looked around in confusion.
She became even more confused.
This is not a yard, so why does it have four walls?
The positions for the doors and windows are still there, but nothing is installed there.
Who moved them here for no reason?
Lu Man panicked and quickly patted Cheng Suihua's face.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! Wake up, something big has happened..."
After Lu Man finished patting Cheng Suihua, she stretched out her arm and patted Old Madam Shen beside her.
"Mom, mom! Wake up, something big has happened..."
Cheng Suihua, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up and sat up without even opening her eyes.
"Here comes the house raider, right?"
“Don’t…”
Cheng Suihua was halfway through her words when she opened her eyes and saw her brothers and sisters sleeping on the ground.
"What...is going on?"
"Why are they all sleeping on the ground? This ground? The crop field?"
Cheng Suihua glanced at the land that looked like it had just been plowed, and looked at Lu Man in confusion.
At this time, Old Madam Shen also frowned and opened her eyes. The sunlight that entered her eyes made her squint.
“…Where…is this?”
Old Madam Shen looked at the four walls around her in confusion.
Is she sleeping so soundly now?
How could he sleep so soundly even after being moved from his room to this desolate place?
"No, have we been drugged?"
Old Madam Shen frowned and glanced at her daughters-in-law who had not yet woken up.
Today is the day when the Duke of Huguo’s mansion is ransacked. How can they sleep so soundly?
She clearly tossed and turned last night and couldn't fall asleep, but then she somehow fell asleep.
When I woke up, I was sleeping on the ground.
She had only seen the ground so bumpy in this way in the farmland on the village.
"...Ah!? Who drugged us?"
Cheng Suihua was shocked. "Could it be that the people who saved us knocked us out and moved us here to avoid exile?"
"What my sister-in-law said is really possible." Lu Man nodded in agreement.
"We are worthless now. No one wants to have anything to do with us except those who want to save us."
"But, the whole world belongs to the king. Even if you hide us here, it will be useless." Tan Qinghui woke up after hearing the conversation between the people and interrupted with confusion.
"Besides, they left us here with nothing, not even a roof to shelter us from the wind and rain. Are you sure they are going to save us?"
They can't just go without food and drink. If they go out to look for food and drink, they might be discovered.
If the fugitives are caught, it will be an even more serious crime, and they will probably be in an even worse situation.
After hearing what Qin Qinghui said, everyone suddenly became nervous.
Old Madam Shen frowned and looked out the window.
"Go out and take a look. Be careful."
Everyone nodded, supported each other, brushed off the dust on their bodies, and walked out together carefully.
After Mrs. Shen walked out of the room cautiously, she found that there was another room outside.
The layout is very similar to the courtyards of the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
It seems that the other party might really be an old acquaintance of their Shen family. The layout of this half-built courtyard is the same as that of the courtyard of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
