In a cave located a hundred miles away from the capital, people from Baixing Trading Company were driving mule carts towards a cave in the valley.
The head of the Heng family and Heng Youyi personally supervised and watched the shop assistants carry all the things into the cave one by one and place them in an orderly manner.
The cave was so big that it was slowly filled up as cartloads of wooden boxes entered the cave.
All the guys who can come here to move things are the most trusted ones of the Heng family.
After more than half a month of moving, the cave was finally filled up.
Shopkeeper Tong stepped forward and said, "Boss, everything is ready. Do you want to check it?"
The head of the Heng family waved his hand and said, "I trust you to do your job. When you go back today, tell all the guys to shut up and not leak a single word."
Shopkeeper Tong nodded repeatedly, "Okay. Although these people are tight-lipped, I will remind them again."
The head of the Heng family nodded in satisfaction. "You have worked hard during this period. Go back to the account office and withdraw 100 taels of silver and have a good rest. As for these guys, give each of them 10 taels of silver."
Shopkeeper Tong was happy, "Old Tong thanks the boss on behalf of the guys."
The Heng family waved their hands, and Manager Tong took his employees away.
After they left, Heng Youyi, who had been sitting in the carriage, got out, and the father and daughter walked into the cave.
The head of the Heng family opened the wooden box in front of him, and the golden gold came into view. It was a whole box full of gold.
In the entire cave, every wooden box is filled with either gold or silver.
The Heng family could afford such a huge amount of wealth, but it would also be a huge loss.
Of these silver and gold, except for the top layer which is real, the rest are all fake.
"I wonder what that person means?" The head of the Heng family was unable to see through the deeper meaning behind that person.
Heng Youyi also couldn't figure it out, "It must be for some purpose. As for what it is for, you will know when you use this batch of things."
The head of the Heng family nodded and said, "Let's go."
The father and daughter closed the iron door at the entrance of the cave, locked it with three locks, and then left.
Soon after they left, the place was watched by the shadow guards, and any villains who came here would be killed.
Shangjing City
Heng Youyi had just returned home when Su Yin invited her to a teahouse.
There were only two guests in the tea room on the second floor. The environment was quiet and undisturbed.
Su Yin poured Heng Youyi a cup of tea and said, "Madam, have you put away the money?"
"Just finished it yesterday."
Su Yin nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."
“It should be.”
"We need to trouble Madam to go to Prince Jing's Mansion."
Heng Youyi was puzzled, "What's the matter?"
"Please ask the Heng family to present the silver in the cave to Prince Jing."
Heng Youyi was surprised, not knowing what she was up to, and agreed directly, "Okay."
Although she was very curious, she would not ask unless the other party said it.
"I will talk to my father tomorrow and ask him to find Prince Jing."
Su Yin shook her head. "Don't be so anxious. It will be done in half a month."
"good."
Su Yin's eyes fell on Heng Youyi's bulging belly, "When are you going to deliver the baby?"
When he suddenly heard the word "unloading", he was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled.
These two words seem to have nothing to do with pregnancy, but when you think about them carefully, they are indeed the case.
Heng Youyi patted her belly which was stuffed with pillows and said with a smile, "It will probably be time to give birth next month."
next month?
Su Yin thought for a moment and said, "If possible, you can unload the goods earlier or later."
"Has there been any changes in Shangjing City?" Heng Youyi reacted quickly.
Su Yin nodded, "Not sure. But it's probably around that time."
According to the news coming out of the Dark Chamber, the five major forces are fighting to the death for the treasure map, and King Wu has even sent out his private soldiers.
No matter who gets the treasure in the end, when they get there they will find out that it is a fake.
At this time, Prince Jing quietly obtained a sum of wealth, and even transported it out of the cave. Then the other forces would definitely think that Prince Jing was trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain to confuse the public, and that he had actually obtained the wealth long ago.
Prince Jing was conspicuous enough before he got the treasure, and his fate after getting the treasure can be imagined.
Judging from the time, it’s almost time to force Prince Jing to rebel.
At that time, there would inevitably be chaos in the capital.
Heng Youyi thought for a moment and said, "It won't work if we postpone it. It will cause people to doubt the child's bloodline. So I'll start preparing and start practicing my skills in advance."
"Um."
"The important people of the Heng family can be quietly sent away from Shangjing City during this period of time. It won't be too late to come back after Shangjing City is stable. Remember, don't let anyone notice anything."
"good."
Su Yin saw that she was hesitant to speak, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."
Heng Youyi hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Does the chance of winning look good?"
Su Yin thought the other party would ask who was the power behind her, but she asked a question that seemed crucial but was vague and unreliable.
"I can't say I'm 100% sure, but I'm 70% to 80% sure."
"That's good."
After chatting about other things, the two left one after another.
Imperial Palace·Imperial Study
Emperor Rongxian was bent over his desk reviewing memorials. The eunuch serving beside him noticed that the emperor frowned, probably knowing that he had seen another memorial that would make him happy. However, the emperor did not get angry, which was rare, and simply put the memorial aside.
"Prince Jing's men are really becoming more and more daring."
The eunuch chief, Eunuch Wang, looked at his nose and his heart, without saying a word.
At this time, a young eunuch came in quietly, walked to the side of Wang Gonggong and whispered something. As the young eunuch talked more and more, Wang Gonggong's face became more and more ugly.
After the young eunuch finished speaking, he left immediately, fearing that his life would be in danger if he didn't leave.
Eunuch Wang's brows were knitted so tightly that they could pinch a fly to death, and he felt bitter in his heart.
Emperor Rong Xian picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Eunuch Wang thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, General Lei has sent a message that they have found the treasure hiding place, but..."
Emperor Rong Xian put down the teacup in his hand and said, "You old man, if you have something to say, just say it directly."
Eunuch Wang said with a stiff face: "There is no cave there at all. They found a wooden box there, and inside it was a piece of paper, which said, wrote..."
Emperor Rong Xian's expression darkened a little bit, and he said sternly, "Speak."
"It says 'Fool, you've been fooled!'" After Eunuch Wang finished speaking, he immediately knelt down to apologize, not daring to look up at Emperor Rong Xian's expression.
There was silence for two seconds, and suddenly, there was a rustling sound, and memorials, teacups, pens, ink, paper, and inkstone were all swept to the ground by the furious Emperor Rong Xian.
