Chapter 88 I'm Not That Greedy
As soon as Qin Chuchu arrived in the yard, she ran towards the corner gate leading to the backyard.
When I came here before, I was still fantasizing that after the Living King of Hell dealt with that matter thoroughly, he would take the 500,000 taels of silver.
Then she, the ATM, could take a break, but that’s not what she thought now.
Looking at Zhou Quan's calm expression, it was not difficult to tell that he had made all the necessary preparations. It was estimated that even the King of Hell would not be able to find out the truth today.
Then she can only rely on herself. If she can find the 500,000 taels of silver, she will put it into the space to prevent Han Mulei from getting it too cheap.
What she didn't know was that the moment she stepped into the corner door, Feng Qi also came out of the house.
I just saw the princess coming out alone, and I was worried that she had taken the wrong way, so I thought of coming out to check.
Seeing her running towards the corner gate, he was about to call her, but he lowered his raised hand again.
Looking at the princess's sneaky look, he felt very curious and wondered what she was doing there.
He gave up the idea of calling her and followed her quietly.
Qin Chuchu didn't know that Feng Qi was secretly following her from behind.
She looked around as she walked and soon entered the second courtyard.
Judging from the appearance, there are at least a dozen rooms, and women's laughter can be heard from some of the rooms from time to time.
They were all talking about rouge and powder, and Qin Chuchu curled her lips.
If I'm not mistaken, the women living in these houses should all be Zhou Quan's concubines.
I didn’t expect that guy to have such good physical strength, and he had taken care of a lot of women.
He looked around the yard again. With so many people living here, he thought Zhou Quan would not hide the silver here.
Thinking of this, she ran to the back yard again.
As soon as I entered the yard at the back, I found it was very quiet and the whole yard was silent.
He looked around more than a dozen rooms and finally stopped at a door with the words "Ancestral Hall" written on it.
I don’t know if it’s because I found the treasury in the Prime Minister’s Mansion Temple last time, but now I look at these two words with such curiosity.
Just as he was about to run over to investigate, a group of guards came up in front of him.
“…” Qin Chuchu was stunned.
I was so careless that I forgot to be on guard against other people around.
But now, looking at those people, they were already walking towards her. If she dodged, she would become even more suspicious.
The only thing we can do now is to stand here and wait and see.
After all, she has done nothing and is the Princess of Chen, so she thinks these guards will not do anything to her.
Just as her mind was racing, thinking about how to respond, the team came up to her but did not stop.
Just a few eyes staring at her.
The adults in their family have increasingly higher standards of taste, and this woman is truly stunningly beautiful.
He watched these people pass by him, not only without questioning them, but also without any intention of stopping.
Qin Chuchu was completely confused. Are the guards of this government office so lax?
If you don't question strangers when you meet them, you won't have to worry about anything being lost in your house.
Thinking of the guards staring at her, she looked down at her own clothes and immediately understood.
In order not to embarrass the living devil, she wore a brocade Confucian dress today, which was very dignified and elegant.
I guess the guards must have mistaken me for one of the women in the front yard.
Seeing the guards walking away, she withdrew her thoughts and, seeing that there was no one else around, she quickly ran towards the entrance of the ancestral hall.
But this ancestral hall is different from the ancestral hall in the Prime Minister's Mansion. The door is locked tightly with a big padlock.
But this did not pose a problem for her. She looked around vigilantly and made sure that there was no one around before she took out the silent electric drill from her arms.
He cut the lock, pushed the door open and walked in.
“…………” Feng Qi was stunned with shock.
He hid in the dark and stared at Qin Chuchu. He broke such a big lock easily.
The thing in the princess's hand is too enchanting!
Qin Chuchu didn't realize what she was doing, as Feng Qi saw everything.
At this moment, she had only one thought in her mind, which was to find the silver as soon as possible so that she could put it into the space.
It is not advisable to stay in this place for a long time. It will be difficult if we are discovered.
As soon as I arrived at the ancestral hall, just like last time in the ancestral hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I turned on all the candles, but none of them had any mechanism.
I searched every corner of the street and touched every place I could, but there was no mechanism revealed.
Now she was at a loss. Could it be that she guessed wrong this time and Zhou Quan did not hide the silver here?
He was about to give up and look in other rooms, but just as he was about to push open the door of the ancestral hall, he heard some noise outside.
She was so frightened that she quickly pulled her body back, but accidentally bumped into the altar behind her, knocking over the tablets on it.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to do that!"
She closed her eyes and bowed to the tablet. The dead are the most important, and she didn't want to mess with these winged creatures.
Just as she was about to pick up the tablets that had been knocked over, her hands suddenly stopped.
She stared straight at the tablet in the middle of the front, and after a brief moment of stunned silence, she grinned.
She knocked down so many tablets, but that one was still standing. What was there to hesitate about?
She quickly reached out to touch the tablet, and just as she expected, after twisting it with great effort, a secret door appeared on the east wall.
“…………” Qin Chuchu was delighted.
I didn't expect Zhou Quan to be so cunning. He even set up such a secret mechanism. He is much smarter than the original owner's scumbag father.
If I hadn't accidentally knocked over those tablets, I would have missed it.
Not daring to stay any longer, she ran over quickly and entered through the secret door, which turned out to be a house of about ten square meters.
The most eye-catching things are the boxes placed on the ground.
Although the box containing gold ingots was different from the one in Han Mulei's villa, she still felt that it contained the silver she was looking for.
He came up and opened one of the boxes. When he saw the silver ingots inside, he grinned uncontrollably again.
She guessed right, this was indeed a well-preserved vault, and she quickly opened several other boxes.
Not all of them were silver ingots, there were also quite a few antiques and jades, and a small amount of gold ingots. Although it couldn't be compared with Han Mulei's treasury, she was still very happy.
I'm not that greedy person!
After all, Zhou Quan had the official position, and the area under his jurisdiction was not rich, so it was already good enough for him to save so much money.
In order to get out quickly, she waved her hand and put all the boxes into the space.
Without checking if anything was missing, he turned and walked out of the ancestral hall, and hung the padlock again as before.
Seeing that there was no one around, he quickly walked towards the front yard.
Feng Qi walked out from the corner, staring at the princess's panicked back with a dark look in his eyes.
Could it be that the princess is really the woman who saved Feng Si?
