Huo Jingxuan and Leng Yue returned home and waited for a long time, but no one came back. At first they thought they were delayed by something. The longer they waited, the more uneasy they became.
Huo Jingxuan suggested, "How about we go look for them?"
Leng Yue also had the same idea. Logically, he should have returned long ago. As a prince's manor, no matter how rich it is, it can never be more than the national treasury. How could he not come back for such a long time?
It was curfew again, so they went out of the city through the tunnel and transferred the horses that they had collected in advance through the space. After walking for a while, Leng Yue called a halt.
Because the noise made by a running horse was too loud, Leng Yue suddenly thought of an electric car. That thing was light, made little noise, and most importantly, had a light. She was completely in the dark and couldn't see a thing!
She kissed Huo Jingxuan twice, silently thinking of electric car in her heart, but what came out was actually an electric car.
At times like this, you are not in a position to be picky, so just use whatever you have.
He asked Huo Jingxuan to get in the car, but the guy couldn't even open the door. He touched the car again, and the more he touched, the more satisfied he was. "This thing is good, more stable than a horse, and less noisy."
Leng Yue added, "Faster than a horse!"
With that, he set off with a whoosh, which scared Huo Jingxuan.
After the excitement wore off, he began to realize that something was wrong and asked Leng Yue, "Wife, what is this thing? Why have I never seen it before? You know everything about it and can use it?"
Leng Yue shrugged and started talking nonsense, "There's nothing I can do about it. It's because the space chose me to be its master. At that moment, my brain suddenly knew a lot of things. I didn't want to know them either. There's nothing I can do about it!"
Huo Jingxuan just watched Leng Yue talking nonsense seriously, and he didn't point it out. He just watched quietly. He felt that one day, his wife would be willing to tell him everything.
The more I watch, the more I feel that his wife is good at talking nonsense. She can even say that the dead are alive. This is also a skill. If only his father were still alive, he would definitely be happy to see his wife. Someone has inherited the mantle of the big liar.
Suddenly, several carriages appeared in front of them. Leng Yue and Huo Jingxuan first turned off the car lights cautiously. When they were about to put them back into the space, Huo Jingxuan heard that the people opposite were the butler and the secret guards.
I was looking for them. "Wife, no need to accept it. It's the housekeeper and the secret guards."
Leng Yue really admires people with inner strength. They can tell who someone is from such a long distance. That's awesome!
At this time, the other side also became alert. An Er asked An Yi, "Brother, what was that thing that was so bright just now, and then it disappeared in a flash?"
An Yi doesn't know either, he is on guard at the moment. And the idiot An Er chooses to ask him at this time, which is really irrelevant.
He immediately pushed An Er behind him and said, "Shut up and hide behind me."
Then they heard Huo Jingxuan give their unique code, "Yes, General, alert lifted."
When An Er heard that the general was coming, he immediately ran out from behind his brother and ran straight towards Huo Jingxuan. To be precise, he ran straight towards the light. He wanted to know what that thing was.
He ran around the car several times. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He kept asking questions like a curious baby.
On the other side, Huo Jingxuan asked the housekeeper and An Yi, "Why is it taking so long? What's in the car?"
Speaking of this, the housekeeper was excited, "General, the madam's medicine is so effective that it spread over a large area. After we got the gold, we happened to see the full load of rice and flour next door. We couldn't help but harness the carts and bring them back."
Huo Jingxuan looked around and saw eight carriages. He asked them, "Are they all loaded with food?"
He confirmed again, "We have to bring it back. We can't let that grandson get away with it."
Huo Jingxuan suddenly had an idea and called Leng Yue, who was chatting with An Er, and said, "Wife, come here and collect the food first. Leave a bag of rice for me."
As soon as Leng Yue saw Huo Jingxuan's raised eyebrows, she knew that he was going to do something bad again. She didn't ask any more questions and happily collected the food.
Food is a good thing. It will not change in any dynasty. Who would complain about having too much food?
Huo Jingxuan saw Leng Yue had finished collecting the grain, and then he said, "You go back. Drag some tree branches behind the cart for this section of the road to erase the scars. For the section from the prince's farm to the eldest prince's villa, load some big stones on the cart, poke a hole in the rice bag, and lead everyone there. My wife and I will pick you up at the gate of the villa."
The secret guards were very excited after hearing this, because they could trick the eldest prince again.
Leng Yue and Huo Jingxuan had another secret agent who shamelessly insisted on riding in the car with them, and they took him along since they couldn't get rid of him.
They soon arrived outside the eldest prince's villa. Leng Yue originally planned to go in and take a look to see if there were any good things, but was persuaded by An Er.
"Ma'am, there is nothing valuable in here. I've been here several times, and each time it's worse than the last time."
"Maybe you're scared of stealing it?" Leng Yue said.
An Er touched the back of his head and thought for a long time, "It seems to be the case!"
Huo Jingxuan really couldn't bear to see An Er's stupid look, "You are so stubborn that you always steal from one family. Can't you learn from your brother and move to another place after each shot?"
An Er was right, "When I stole it, you didn't have any objections, either.
Besides, my mother once said when she was alive that my brother's brains belong to me, so I just need to gain some weight to balance it out."
Leng Yue was secretly happy, their mother understood these two brothers quite well. However, it was good that An Er was like this, he had no evil intentions, his shortcoming was that he was too honest and stubborn.
Since there was nothing to do, Leng Yue wondered whether she should prepare some midnight snack. She had been very busy tonight and everyone was probably hungry. She had gained so much and it was time to celebrate.
Just as she was thinking, a mooing sound was heard. If she heard it correctly, it should be the sound of a cow, right?
Leng Yue asked Huo Jingxuan, "Why are there cows in the courtyard?"
Huo Jingxuan pointed at An Er and said, "Then you have to ask him."
It turned out that it was the Second Elder An who came to visit the eldest prince's villa. Later, since there was nothing to take, he took away all the horses in the villa.
It was lost several times in a row. There was no other way. Now the other courtyards use ox carts and donkey carts to purchase goods. These two vehicles are cheap and slow. It is easy to be caught if they are taken away. An Er also looks down on them, so he escaped.
Just because An Er doesn't like her doesn't mean Leng Yue doesn't like her. She ordered An Er to take her in and bring her out.
An Er didn't know what Leng Yue wanted to do, and he advised her, "Madam, we already have enough horses in our house. Cows and donkeys are really useless. Let's not waste our energy on them."
Leng Yue asked him, "Do you want to eat stewed beef, fried steak, beef stuffed buns, or donkey meat hot pot?"
An Er was drooling as he spoke, "Madam, I have never eaten any of the things you mentioned, but they sound delicious. I'll take you in right now."
After saying that, he planned to jump over the wall carrying Leng Yue, but was stopped by Huo Jingxuan, "I'm here, it's not your turn to show your courtesy."
After saying that, he smiled at Leng Yue with a playful face, "Wife, your husband will carry you in."
An Er pouted behind him, "Wife slave, you are bullying me because I don't have a wife!"
Under the leadership of An Er, they quickly took the big yellow cow and the black donkey away. Leng Yue thought that eating meat alone was not enough and it had to be paired with some vegetables, so she also visited the kitchen of the eldest prince's villa.
It was like a swarm of locusts passing through a land, gathering up the grain and taking away the jars of salt and oil, even the pots and pans.
Whoever wakes up and cooks tomorrow will probably curse in the streets. This is too cruel. How could a thief not even let go of the big black pot?
While waiting outside, An Er thought of the delicious food Leng Yue had mentioned and could not wait any longer. He discussed with Leng Yue, "Madam, I'll go in and kill the cow and donkey. It will be convenient for you to cook when you clean them up."
Leng Yue thought about it and decided it was a good idea. Since she was just waiting there anyway, she might as well find something to do.
By the time the butler and the secret guards arrived, the simple version of slate roast beef and slate fried steak was already ready.
An Er, the kitchen helper, had already tasted the food for everyone in advance. He commented that it was very good.
Leng Yue collected the secret guards and the carriage into the space, and drove Huo Jingxuan back home.
The secret guards and the butler smelled the aroma of meat all the way in the space, but they were all very well-behaved. They couldn't move first as their master hadn't eaten yet.
Everyone was so greedy that the gluttony in their stomachs was fighting, and if they hadn't controlled their drool, it would have flowed out from the corners of their mouths.
The first thing they did when they got home was to wash their hands and have a midnight snack. They were very happy with the meal, but the palace was in chaos at that moment.
