Han Zeyu rolled around on the bed in anger. Who was this bastard?
He just went there to join in the fun. Even though those treasures didn't belong to him, it was okay for him to take a look, right?
He can be blamed for just this!
What's going on? That clumsy guy you caught is so stubborn that you're using me as a scapegoat since you can't get any information out of him.
He has such a bad temper, whoever wants to be the scapegoat can do so, but he won't take it!
But on second thought, how can he clear his name?
Forget it, it’s too troublesome and takes up too much brainpower, so he decided to go all out and do something big.
There's no need to guess. The Imperial Household Department must have enriched themselves and wanted him to take the blame. I'll make you cry so hard you won't even find your grave.
The Empress Dowager was quite troubled. It would be better not to hold the banquet!
The chief steward of the Imperial Household Department is already an old man, why does he always do stupid things? It seems that his appetite has grown too big, and he finally couldn't resist his greed.
"After this matter is settled, I want to go to Guangyuan Temple to pray for blessings. It's time to settle the accounts of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I am old, so please take care of me, Your Majesty!"
The emperor said gently, "Let Concubine Lan accompany you, and bring some servants with you. Your son will be waiting for your return."
The Queen Mother nodded and sighed. It was her negligence that caused trouble for the Emperor.
The greater the power in one's hands, the harder it is to keep one's original intention. Even the loyal servants who had protected him with their lives in the early years have other thoughts.
The relationship between master and servant has ended, and now that things have come to this, all I can do is sigh.
The emperor wants to investigate the Imperial Household Department. As the chief steward, it is impossible for him not to notice the clues. Not only him, there are many perceptive people, otherwise people would not come to eavesdrop one after another.
Should I pretend nothing happened or deal with it proactively?
After discussing with that person, both of them felt that they could not just sit there and wait for death, so they moved the things away first.
However, we should leave a way out so that we can meet again in the future. We cannot replace all the things, and the tributes that are mixed with genuine ones must be replaced with corresponding imitations.
The biggest problem is not how to switch the packages, but how to transport them safely after the switch.
If Han Zeyu were to tell you, don't bother. As long as he's around, there's no way he'd let you take the things away no matter what.
Tie Dongming is in charge of investigating this matter. At this moment, he is leading his men to survey the terrain and determine their escape route.
It was definitely impossible to get up to the roof, and the beams provided even less concealment, so Han Zeyu decided to fight an underground war.
Han Zeyu was hiding in the treetops not far away, watching General Tie's men surveying the terrain. He knew that these people were looking for the entrance to the tunnel.
Regardless of whether this black-faced general has any relationship with Tiezhu, he decided to give him a surprise.
The Empress Dowager's Autumn Banquet will be held in one day, and tributes from all over the country will soon be brought into the palace. It will be too late if we don't take action now.
In the middle of the night, in the Imperial Household Department's warehouse, two men replaced the items in the box and began to carefully affix seals.
The gift-showing session is usually arranged after the sacrifice and before the banquet.
This left them with plenty of time to escape, and five hours later, they had already left the place by boat.
The imagination was beautiful, but unfortunately the plan could not keep up with the changes. Just as the two of them were carrying rare treasures and walking carefully in the tunnel, they suddenly felt that the wall on one side was moving.
Looking at the falling dirt, the two were terrified. Could it be a landslide? What are we waiting for? Run!
The two men didn't care about the narrow passage, bent down and lowered their heads, and moved forward quickly.
Suddenly a leg stretched out from the wall, scaring the two of them to scream.
So by the time Han Zeyu successfully escaped from the embrace of the land, the two had already run away separately.
Han Zeyu was too lazy to chase after him. He walked straight to the pile of gifts and quickly extracted 80% of the energy from them.
Night pearls, double-sided embroidery, jade ruyi, white jade pagoda, red coral tree, and even Buddhist scriptures are embroidered with gold thread.
This evil ruling class envies him to death, no, no, they despise him, despise him to death.
Han Zeyu personally condemned the extravagant formalism, and he immediately compromised and caught them all in one fell swoop, drawing a clear line between himself and them with practical actions.
After draining away most of the energy, Han Zeyu wisely left these items in place as evidence.
Apart from the jade and jadeite, the two embroidery items in particular are intact because no energy can be squeezed out of them.
Let’s not worry about the old man who took the wrong path. Han Zeyu directly trapped him with a thick earth wall. It was really like crying out to heaven and earth for help, but no one could help him.
The trapped man thought he had triggered some kind of mechanism and was now squatting on the ground in the dark, searching for the switch.
Han Zeyu appeared behind the man and knocked him unconscious when he turned his head. He then dragged him by the collar and threw him in front of his accomplices.
Although they were separated by a wall, they at least shared the same hardships. Han Zeyu was a good person and directly caused a small landslide accident.
The two buried people are not in danger of death.
Several of the buried items were evidence of theft.
Tie Dongming got this achievement inexplicably. Suddenly, his feet felt empty and the ground collapsed the next moment.
Lying between the two thieves, he was puzzled. What kind of luck did he have?
…
Han Zeyu's ability has been upgraded to level 3.75. He still has a long way to go to make it an integer!
The Empress Dowager's Autumn Banquet was not lavish, but it was lively and did not involve any waste of money or resources, so the common people and students had nothing to complain about.
The Qianqiu Banquet ended in the evening, and the chief steward of the Imperial Household Department was secretly arrested immediately.
This surprised him. It had only been a few hours since the substitution, but he had already been caught.
In the end, I couldn't escape this disaster. I don't know if those things were shipped out.
No matter how they handled the situation, Han Zeyu got real benefits.
I'll buy some local specialties tomorrow to eat on the road. As for whether I can leave some for Su Shien, that's up to fate.
While Han Zeyu was shopping, he seemed to casually linger in the area where officials' residences were gathered for a while.
It seems that the Iron General is of a high rank. He must be a difficult person to have such a large mansion in this area.
To be honest, Han Zeyu couldn't see what the person looked like. It was because the light was insufficient that night, and the general's skin color was not really fair.
He knew that judging people by appearance was wrong, but Han Zeyu sincerely felt that if one only looked at skin color and body shape, the two of them were indeed quite similar.
Tiezhu, you silly boy, who are you?
I've been worrying about him so much, running myself crazy, and almost breaking my body. He always talks back when I scold him.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. No one came out, so Han Zeyu thought that nothing was difficult in the world as long as he was willing to give up.
Just as he had come to terms with himself, the door to the mansion not far away was pushed open...
