Chapter 9: Searching for the Big Fat Sheep



When Leng Yue woke up the next day, she heard the secret guards gossiping and saying that the palace had brought Emperor Gong back from the mountain overnight.

It is said that when the dog emperor found out that the prince and his favorite concubine were having an affair, his face turned green with anger.

Concubine Rou was banished to the cold palace overnight. If it weren't for the powerful family of Concubine Rou, she would have been executed on the spot.

As a man, you cannot tolerate being cuckolded, let alone that man is an emperor.

The prince suffered a miserable fate. Not only was his status as prince abolished, he was also beaten with twenty boards and carried back to the East Palace alive. It was said that there was blood all over the floor.

Leng Yue felt that the story was a bit exaggerated. It was true that blood was seen, but it was impossible that the man was still alive with blood all over the floor.

We have to praise Leng Yue here, because she prescribed the medicine so well that the imperial physician couldn't find out what was wrong.

In other words, the Crown Prince and Concubine Rou getting together was not a frame-up, but a completely voluntary decision between the two.

Otherwise, the emperor would not have been so angry, and would have deposed the prince on the spot.

Huo Jingxuan was so happy that he drank an extra bowl of porridge for breakfast.

If it wasn't the right timing, he would have wanted to go out and set off some firecrackers to celebrate.

Therefore, when he saw Leng Yue, he was particularly enthusiastic. This time, it was not Leng Yue who took the initiative to kiss him. Huo Jingxuan hugged Leng Yue and kissed her several times.

"My wife is really amazing. She just came up with an idea and deposed the crown prince. Many people would be unable to accomplish this even if they worked hard for their entire lives!"

Leng Yue wiped his face calmly, "This is just the beginning. The dog prince has stepped down, especially for such an ignominious reason, and everyone will blame him. All the bad things he has done, whether they are real or not, will be exposed to the dog emperor, and that will be the most painful.

The dog emperor will never be able to swallow the humiliation of being cheated on. Imperial Concubine Rou's family and those who rely on her family to survive will be the first batch of cannon fodder to be dealt with. It is only a matter of time before Imperial Concubine Rou's family falls. "

Huo Jingxuan slapped the table and said, "Great! Great!"

Leng Yue was actually worried that the dog emperor would become desperate and take it out on them first.

"Husband, do you think we will also be on the list of those who will be dealt with?"

Huo Jingxuan had thought of this a long time ago, and he had let it go, “Madam, the dog emperor has been afraid of the Huo family for many years, and he will never miss any opportunity to deal with us.

It's only a matter of time. The earlier we leave, the easier it will be to get there. If we leave later, it will probably rain or snow heavily."

Leng Yue asked, "Do you know the specific exile route and final location?

Let’s make arrangements in advance.”

Huo Jingxuan shook his head. "It's just a few broken pieces of land. He can't do anything even if he's exhausted. But, Madam, don't worry. No matter where he tells us to go, it's useless. Our destination is the northwest. That's where my ancestors guarded, and it's also where we started our transformation."

When Leng Yue heard this, she knew that everything had been arranged in advance, so she stopped asking about it.

"Then let's take advantage of the few days we still have to visit as many houses as possible and search for more things. After all, the people living in the capital are all fat sheep. If we miss this village, it will be difficult to find such fat sheep again."

This coincided with Huo Jingxuan's idea. Ever since he used the space plug-in last night, he had become a little addicted to it.

The two of them discussed it and decided to continue tonight, trying to visit more stores and make a lot of money.

Leng Yue approached Huo Jingxuan quietly and said, "Can we just kill the dog emperor? It's said that we should capture the king first. Wouldn't it be a permanent solution?"

Huo Jingxuan patted Leng Yue's head lovingly, "My silly wife, how could that be so easy? Let alone the several substitutes of the dog emperor, we can't even tell who is the real one, how can we assassinate him?

Even if the world is peaceful and prosperous now, even if I seize that position, I will be a traitor and a usurper of the throne, which is not legitimate.

If that happens, the world will be in chaos, the people will be in dire straits, and I will become a sinner for all eternity."

"Oh!" Leng Yue sighed. There was no other choice. She had to go into exile.

Huo Jingxuan patted Leng Yue's little hand and comforted her, "Madam, don't be discouraged. Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. I don't believe I don't have a chance."

Leng Yue could only nod. This was the only thing she could do now.

At night, everyone bypassed the surveillance guards and left the house through the tunnel. Who would have thought that Huo Jingxuan dug the tunnel next door?

This time, they divided the work and the secret guards put the drugs in front, Huo Jingxuan was responsible for bringing Leng Yue in, and the work of collecting was left to Leng Yue.

This time the time is tight and the task is heavy, so we just need to pick up gold, silver, jewelry and valuables, and abandon all other unimportant things.

Originally Leng Yue wanted to loot everything, since they were already here, it wouldn't be a big deal, but she was stopped by Huo Jingxuan.

The reasons must be sufficient, and the two cases must be distinguished. We cannot let others think that the crime was committed by the same person, which would widen the net and confuse the enemy's sight.

Leng Yue had no choice but to obey and do as she was told. However, she could see it but couldn't take it in, which made her feel itchy and uncomfortable.

It is said that there are many fat sheep in the capital. They worked hard for an entire night and only visited more than 20 restaurants. There were still many more that they had not visited.

However, the homes of the dog emperor's dog sons have all been visited. They are the primary targets, and the only ones left are the homes of those corrupt officials.

It has to be said that the targets they chose are really rich, especially those corrupt officials, who are extremely wealthy and even richer than princes.

Now I’m doing something wrong. I’m making wedding dresses for others!

Hehe! Leng Yue and Huo Jingxuan got all the benefits!

When it was almost dawn, everyone had to go back because the ministers who were going to court would get up.

While eating breakfast, Leng Yue's right eye kept twitching, which made her feel anxious.

She had a feeling that something was wrong, and said to Huo Jingxuan who was eating, "My right eye is twitching. Is there anything else at home that you like, have feelings for, and is easy to use? I'll take it away first, so that you don't miss it when the time comes."

As a result, Huo Jingxuan actually said: "No, these are all discarded. I arranged those things half a year ago and secretly transported them to the northwest."

Leng Yue raised her eyes and looked into Huo Jingxuan's eyes scrutinizingly, "Did you know that you would be exiled half a year ago?"

"I knew it long ago, I just kept preparing myself. If I hadn't used my brain, your husband wouldn't be alive today even if he had nine lives."

Leng Yue sighed silently in her heart, this ancient cannibalistic society is so complicated!

At this time, Huo Jingxuan looked at Leng Yue with a complicated expression, "Wife, how about I arrange for someone to escort you to the northwest? The journey is long and not peaceful. I don't want you to suffer with me."

In fact, there was one thing Huo Jingxuan didn't say directly. If Leng Yue wanted to follow, she could only dress as a man, otherwise the man would be exiled and the woman would be sent to the Jiaofangsi.

Considering the dog emperor's hatred for his family, he would probably send the woman to a more lowly place to suffer.

Leng Yue shook her head, "Husband, please let me follow you, so that you can eat better on the road, and maybe I can help everyone at the critical moment."

Huo Jingxuan knew that he couldn't persuade Leng Yue, so he could only agree reluctantly.

Suddenly, An San came to report, "Master, the raiders are here."

"Why are you panicking? What's coming will eventually come!" After saying that, Huo Jingxuan asked Leng Yue to change clothes, and he continued to calmly finish his breakfast.
