Chapter 305 The anger is growing stronger!

The little emperor and the queen mother had already won the battle before it even began.

The reason they won was that the late emperor trusted them too much and entrusted everything to them, but in the end they were the ones who got implicated.

The young emperor was extremely pleased to have captured all of the late emperor's confidants. He shouted, "All those who followed me will be rewarded, without exception!"

"Long live the emperor!"

His guards were still in shock over the palace secret, but when they heard about the reward, they were all delighted. They didn't care what they had just done and just kept shouting.

The little emperor was very satisfied with their condition and silently exchanged a glance with the empress dowager.

Now that the late emperor has passed away, and Prince Mu Nanzhou of Nanling has also died here, all their worries have been eliminated, and they will have happier days ahead.

But they didn't know that Mu Nanzhou was still alive, and he and Xu Yanyi were even hiding in the royal team, and they saw everything they did.

Although Xu Yanyi was heartbroken about her father's death, she felt relieved when she thought about what her father had done to her before.

In a place like the royal family, it is not uncommon for blood relatives to scheme against each other. She has to scheme for the future...

The little emperor's great worry was relieved, and he returned to the capital that day.

However, after returning this time, he made a sad announcement that Prince Mu Nanzhou of Nanling accidentally fell off a cliff during hunting and his body has not been found to date.

He showed great pain, and all the civil and military officials in the court and the people did not believe it.

In order to reassure the people, he issued an edict, "Although Prince Nanling died outside the country, he was a pillar of our dynasty after all. He is posthumously conferred the title of Regent Prince, and the royal family will hold a funeral for him!"

When this decree was announced, all the people began to praise the young emperor for his testimony.

But the people had no idea that all this was done by the little emperor, and he even secretly instructed his confidants, "Take people to the Nanling Palace to hold the funeral, and express your condolences to the imperial sister. After all, she is the Nanling Princess, and she must be very sad after what happened to Mu Nanzhou."

"What the little emperor means is..."

The little emperor raised his eyelids slightly and whispered, "On the surface, you will go under this pretext, but after you go there, you must detain all of Prince Nanling's subordinates and secret guards, and confiscate all of their property. Don't let others take advantage of the situation. Do you understand?"

How could he have such a good heart? It was just for the troops in Mu Nanzhou's hands and his wealth that was comparable to the national treasury.

With this money, not only will the national treasury be filled, he can also use the money to do some good deeds and win the hearts of the people.

Moreover, Mu Nanzhou has a lot of foundation. If he can control his subordinates in his own hands, plus the confidants of the late emperor, he will have a lot of trump cards in his hands, and then the position of the dragon throne will become more and more stable.

His confidant immediately understood what the little emperor meant and hurriedly cupped his hands, "I understand. I'll take someone to do it right away. I'll definitely put the little emperor at ease!"

"Go, be careful, and don't let the people see anything."

"yes!"

Before the next day even arrived, the little emperor was in a hurry to order people to vacate the Nanling Palace right after returning to the capital.

Xu Yanyi and Mu Nanzhou could not help but feel contempt after hearing the news.

"It seems like he really can't wait even a minute. He wants to take everything from you as soon as he comes back. Even if you survive and come back, you will lose everything. He is really calculating!"

Obviously he is his younger brother, but when Xu Yanyi talked about this matter, his eyes were full of disgust. Mu Nanzhou was relatively calm, "It doesn't matter, just let him relax for a while, and the one he is waiting for will come soon!"

The two of them were discussing very quietly, and they were at the end of the team, so the others couldn't hear what they were discussing at all.

But now that they have returned, they must hurry and leave, otherwise it will be difficult to get out after entering the palace. Besides, the two of them have to meet up with Mu Nanzhou's people!

The two discussed it and quietly withdrew from the team.

Here, the Yulin Army prepared a lot of funeral items and marched into the Nanling Palace in full view of the people.

But what he didn't expect was that after entering, what he saw was not the crying princess and the noisy mansion, but a deserted place with no one in sight.

He immediately thought to himself that something was wrong and quickly ordered his men, "Quick, search everywhere to see if there are any other people!"

"By the way, tell me whether there are any assets left in this huge palace."

The people of the Yulin Army immediately changed their posture from holding a funeral ceremony to searching the house, and everyone dispersed and searched their own places in an instant.

But after searching around, the leader of the Yulin Army felt choked when he heard the reply from below.

"Oh no! There's not a single person in the entire palace, not even a single valuable item. The warehouse has been emptied. It looks like they ran away!"

"Yes, there is not even a dog in this palace, let alone a human being."

…

It's over, it's all over now!

The leader of the Yulin Army felt his heart go cold. Before coming, he had promised the little emperor that he must take the property back with him, or at least escort the prince's men back.

But now...

Now not only is there no one left, but even the warehouse is empty. How is he going to report back?

Now that the Nanling Palace was deserted, there was no point for him to continue staying here. However, for the sake of the young emperor's reputation, he allowed his men to continue pretending to hold the funeral, while he quietly returned to the palace and told the young emperor everything.

"Oh no, little emperor! I took some people to the palace to express my condolences to the princess, but I found that there was no one inside, not even the princess!"

"What? What about the property?"

"All the property is gone. They must have known the news in advance, so they took away all the people's property."

At this moment, he felt cold sweat on his back, and could even feel the anger emanating from the little emperor.

The young emperor was so angry that he slammed the table in anger, "How dare they do that? We came back and raided the mansion, but why did they still get away with it? They didn't even leave me any property. What happened?"

"I'm afraid the people in Nanling Palace must have spies who knew the news in advance, otherwise they wouldn't leave so quickly."

At this time, a guard from the Yulin Army came to report.

"Little Emperor, the people have already heard that the Nanling Palace is empty. Now the rumors are spreading like crazy and it's hard to stop them."

The little emperor's brows furrowed more and more tightly, "What are the people saying?"

"They all said that the Princess of Nanling got the news from somewhere, so she ran away with her servants and property overnight. I'm afraid she has already run far away and can't be caught."

"You are such a jerk, Xu Yanyi!" The anger in the little emperor's heart grew more and more intense!
