Xiaoxi felt that today's trip was well worth it.
She earned another asset for her eight brothers, her cousins, and her uncle Ye Cheng.
Unfortunately, the whereabouts of the old ancestor and Ye Bingkun are currently unknown.
Xiao Xi returned to the Prince's Mansion to rest.
Ye Xingxian sent his men to keep an eye on the Academy of Sciences and returned to the Prince's Mansion.
Xiaoxi told Fifth Brother about what happened this morning.
"Ye Bingkun has transferred some of his assets; he's definitely going to run away. But the most important thing now is that our ancestor has vanished without a trace."
"Don't worry, Xiaoxi. I've already instructed my men in the capital to report any unusual activity to me immediately."
Xiaoxi can rest assured for now. With Fifth Brother around, what is there for her to worry about?
At this moment, the crow also returned to the palace dejectedly.
"Xiaoxi, I'm so sorry, I actually lost track of the Ancestor."
Xiaoxi saw the exhausted crow and knew it had done its best.
As long as it's doing things diligently for her, how could Xiaoxi bear to blame it?
Watching the crow wolf down its food, Xiaoxi fell into deep thought again.
Didn't she previously cook a plate of vegetarian cabbage and mix a pot of fine wine for her ancestor and Ye Bingkun at the ancestral home?
The two men ate what she made, and the crucial point is that the food was laced with drugs.
This drug is designed to make them emotionally unstable, capable of reaching a state of frenzy at any time.
Even if the effects of the drug have worn off now, it has already entered their bloodstream.
The medicinal properties must be within their bodies, circulating normally through their blood.
"I've got it! I've got a plan!"
Xiaoxi's eyes lit up immediately.
"Little crow, tell me, how did you find me? How did you know I was in the Prince's mansion?"
This mansion was bought by my elder brother at great expense; it was the former residence of Prince Kang of the Qing Dynasty.
"When I arrived in the capital, I didn't know where Lady Xiaoxi was at first."
At first, I was flying around aimlessly, but then I remembered that there were many similar creatures in the Forbidden City.
I got to know their eldest brother, and that's how I found Lady Xiaoxi!
"Little crow is really capable. This afternoon, take me to the Forbidden City to find that big brother. I need his help with something!"
When the crow saw that Xiaoxi didn't blame it for its poor performance, but instead praised it and even asked it to introduce it to that older brother, it was surprised to see that Xiaoxi hadn't blamed it for its poor performance.
The crow immediately felt useful again and happily ate a few more beef strips.
Xiao Xi's main purpose was to trouble the crows of the Forbidden City to find the whereabouts of the Ancestor and Ye Bingkun.
These crows have lived in the Forbidden City for generations, and in the Qing Dynasty, they were considered auspicious omens.
If it's just a small crow, it would indeed be difficult to find the ancestor and Ye Bingkun.
But even if we mobilized all the crows in the Forbidden City or even the entire capital, would we still be afraid of not finding these two people?
As dusk fell, Xiao Xi called Ye Lingfeng and Ye Cheng, and took the little crow out.
Xiaoxi felt they could handle this small matter, so she didn't ask Ye Xingxian to join them.
Moreover, Ye Bingkun was her eighth brother's enemy, so Ye Lingfeng and Ye Cheng naturally had to get involved.
Both of them were very willing.
The three arrived at the Forbidden City, now also known as the Palace Museum.
They circled the palace wall and came to a very secluded side gate.
Ye Cheng knocked on the side door, and after a long time, the small window on the side door finally opened.
An impatient face appeared in the small window.
Ye Cheng quickly greeted him politely.
"Excuse me, could you please? We need to enter the Forbidden City..."
"What are you doing? Don't you know the Forbidden City closes at 5:00? Knock, knock, knock, what the hell are you knocking on?!"
"How dare you speak like that? If you can't speak properly, then don't say it again!"
Ye Cheng got angry and punched the man through the small window, turning his mouth into a sausage.
The person cried out in pain and slammed the small window shut.
A short while later, just as Xiaoxi and the others had expected, the side door opened and a group of people in security guard uniforms rushed out.
The guy with sausage lips spoke unclearly, pointing at Xiaoxi and the others.
