After going to the warehouse to check, Gongsun Ming's heart was bleeding.
At this moment, his father fainted from anger!
As soon as he sent his father back to the yard, he couldn't wait to rush back using his lightness skills!
"Is it you?"
As soon as Gongsun Ming came in, he reached out to grab Dongfang Mu's collar.
Before this, Chaoge had warned Dongfang Mu not to let anyone from the Gongsun family touch his clothes, and not to eat anything from the Gongsun family.
Dongfang Mu, who had been on guard, teleported on the spot and dodged Gongsun Ming's hand that was stretched out to him.
When their eyes met again, Dongfang Mu had a look of suspicion on his face.
"What does Master Gongsun mean?
My Highness has come here with sincerity. If Master Gongsun does not want to form an alliance with my Highness, there is no need to do these things?
Who doesn't know that your Gongsun family is best at casting poison?
You haven't yet gotten rid of the ruthless poison in my body, are you trying to poison me again?"
Seeing the confusion in Dongfang Mu's eyes and hearing what Dongfang Mu said, Gongsun Ming's anger slowly dissipated a little.
But the pair of sinister eyes were still fixed on Dongfang Mu, without moving away at all.
He tried to find some clues from Dongfang Mu, and he made up his mind to get rid of this person.
"The Gongsun family's warehouse was just robbed, wasn't it you?
You were able to enter our Gongsun Mansion quietly, weren't you the ones?"
"What?
The warehouse of Gongsun Mansion was robbed?
Mr. Gongsun, are you kidding?
Who in your family is so brave as to steal from you?
Who doesn't know that your Gongsun family is full of Gu? If you are not careful, you will never come back?
Besides, I am the eldest grandson of Prime Minister Dong.
Is there anything that Your Highness needs that the Eastern Prime Minister’s Palace cannot provide?
What did you lose?
Why do you think that this prince, the eldest grandson of the emperor, would come to steal from your Gongsun family?"
“Not you?
Sure?"
There was still doubt in Gongsun Ming's eyes.
Yun Chaoge, who was standing next to Dongfang Mu, had a blank expression on his face, just like a bystander.
Seeing Gongsun Ming's reaction, she, the person involved, was so happy that her heart burst into tears!
Gongsun Ming probably could never have imagined in his dreams who was so capable as to empty out his huge warehouse in an instant?
"Forget it, Your Highness, there is no need for me to waste time talking and explaining to you.
No matter what, your Highness, the Prime Minister of the East, is much richer than your country of Zhannan.
In terms of trade alone, can your Zhannan Kingdom compare with our Dongxiang Kingdom?
Did this prince steal from your Gongsun family?
Haha, if I had the leisure and ability, I would directly steal from your Zhannan Palace Treasury, and I might get more than the Gongsun family's storehouse."
"Master, this matter is too strange.
The warehouse was already heavily guarded, with eight guards on duty there, and guards would patrol every quarter of an hour.
The warehouse was not small and there were quite a few things inside. In such a short period of time, if there had not been a lot of noise, it would have been impossible for the thieves to empty the warehouse in an instant.
Even if a thief wanted to move it, he would definitely have to make a big fuss and a lot of noise.
And our house is full of guards, how could they not find out?
So, this is really weird.”
Yami, who was standing aside, fell into deep thought when Gongsun Ming became suspicious of Dongfang Mu.
There are too many loopholes, problems that can be understood with just a little thought.
Unless there is a traitor in the family, with the help of insiders and outsiders, it may not be possible to transfer all the contents of the warehouse in such a short time.
The reason Chaoge acted so recklessly at that time was because she knew that if she emptied the storehouse of Gongsun Mansion overnight, the people of Gongsun family would be incredulous and would have no way of investigating. It would also disturb their thoughts and might even disrupt their plans.
That's why she was so rampant when she looted the warehouse before.
Sure enough, this little girl's analysis was quite good.
As expected of a bystander, he was much calmer and sober than the furious Gongsun Ming.
But so what? This is a bizarre thing.
No matter how hard they racked their brains, they could not figure out who stole it.
Under the current circumstances, the more chaotic the Gongsun family is, the more she is happy to see it.
“Yes, such a big warehouse, even the things in the basement, are all empty.
Who on earth has such great ability to do it so quietly?
There is so much gold in there, and it is very heavy.
How could all that gold be moved away without a large amount of manpower?
My father would go to the warehouse to check every day. Before going to bed, he would make sure that the things in the warehouse and the basement were still intact.
How is it possible that the contents disappeared in just a few hours?"
In an instant, it seemed as if all the strength in Gongsun Ming's body was drained away.
Not to mention other gold, silver and jade artifacts, there are their family's Gu seeds inside, which have been passed down for hundreds of years!
Without that Gu seed, how can the Gongsun family survive in Zhannan Kingdom by using Gu?
Besides, that gold was accumulated by the Gongsun family over hundreds of years.
A total of three million taels, which would be equivalent to thirty million taels of silver.
Who is this immortal, and which side does he come from, that has such extraordinary powers?
How could they empty the Gongsun family's warehouse in just a few hours without making any noise?
Is it true that God is going to destroy the Gongsun family?
"Master Gongsun, I did not expect that my arrival would be so strange.
But you have poisoned me, are you willing to remove the poison for me?
If you wish, we can also sign a cooperation agreement.
You helped me to get rid of the poison and helped me to ascend to the throne of the Crown Prince. After that, the Prime Minister of the East also gave all his help to your Gongsun family. "
After hearing Dongfang Mu's words, Gongsun Ming slowly came back to his senses, but there was no longer the arrogance in his eyes, but a hint of confusion.
Now that the Gongsun family has even lost the Gu seeds, will they slowly lose the power they hold in the Zhannan Kingdom in the future?
At this time, cooperation with Dongfang Mu is the last straw.
Yes, even if the Gongsun family did not have the poisonous insect to gain a foothold in Zhannan, they would directly hold the country of Zhannan in the hands of the Gongsun family.
In this way, wouldn't all the power and wealth return to the hands of the Gongsun family?
"I can't cure you of the Ruthless Gu for now."
"What's the meaning?"
When Gongsun Ming spoke, Dongfang Mu's expression suddenly turned cold.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a bit of impulsiveness and panic in his eyes, which was typical for his age!
Chaoge, who was standing beside him, lowered his eyes slightly, but felt very disappointed in his heart.
