When we came out of Yang's house, it was almost dawn.
Ling Jiheng carried Chi Xingyue back to the inn, and the moment he climbed in through the window, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Chi Xingyue's consciousness sank into the space, and he looked at the boxes and sacks piled up like mountains, almost laughing to death.
Wow, that feels so good.
It really proves the saying: "A horse cannot grow fat without night grass!"
Fortunately, it happened in the Great Yong Dynasty, otherwise she and Ling Jiheng would definitely be imprisoned for life!
After changing out of their night clothes and putting them away, and tidying up the windowsill and other traces in the room, the two of them lay down on the bed and took a light nap.
It wasn't long before someone started to come out.
Early-rising vendors were shouting everywhere, and people going to work were jostling each other.
Chi Xingyue woke up from his sleep, calmed down, and got up.
After washing up in the room with Ling Jiheng, the two checked out and left.
Take advantage of those officials' inability to react and escape. Otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble will come.
Ling Jiheng drove the car while Chi Xingyue stayed in the carriage. They didn't completely relax until they left the city gate.
Chi Xingyue smiled and asked, "Husband, where are we going?"
Ling Jiheng's eyes softened: "Go find Ling San and the others! Take back the Ling family's wealth, and we can go north together."
After so many days of enduring humiliation, there is finally a result!
Chi Xingyue cheered and felt happiness coming back.
I couldn't help but hum: "It's such a sunny day today~"
***
The weather was indeed sunny today, and the third prince woke up from his sleep feeling refreshed.
I just thought I fell asleep because I was too happy yesterday. The look in my eyes when I looked at the Third Prince's wife became even softer.
"Come here, change your clothes!" With an order, the maids waiting at the door came in one after another.
The Third Prince's wife was woken up and also got up to wash.
Today is the first day that Concubine Yang comes into the house, and that little bitch has to serve tea to her, the queen.
Just as I thought of this, I discovered that the jade bracelet on my wrist was missing.
The Third Prince's wife was shocked and started looking everywhere.
The white skin was covered with spots, which made the little girls blush.
The Third Prince came over and hugged her slender waist: "What are you looking for, my dear?"
The Third Prince's wife forced a smile and said, "The bracelet, the jade bracelet is missing. I wonder if Your Highness has seen it?"
"Bracelet?" The Third Prince frowned and said, "It's just a bracelet!
Every time I'm intimate with my beloved concubine, that bracelet gets in the way, and it's even hit my shoulder several times!"
"But, that's a gift from Sister Wan'er, how can I..."
"Cui Wan'er has been exiled to Youzhou, what else is there to miss? If you have the time, why not help me figure out how to add another helper!"
The Third Prince's wife's heart sank.
The corners of her mouth twitched slightly: "Okay, I understand!"
Before the two could say anything else, a servant came hurriedly to report that the warehouse had been robbed.
It turned out that Concubine Yang wanted to take two gifts from the dowry to give to the main wife, but when she opened the door, she found that the warehouse was empty!
The Third Prince found it unbelievable, and so did his wife.
"The mansion was quiet last night, no unusual noises!"
The two of them quickly dressed and came to Yang Zhen'er's private vault.
Seeing that it was indeed clean inside, the third prince hurried to the public warehouse.
The third prince's wife also took the opportunity to go to her private vault.
The result is obvious, they were all stolen.
She was furious, hating the thief for not only stealing the storehouse but also stealing her bracelet.
Did you know that the bracelet is a legendary treasure?
In her previous life, Cui Wan'er relied on this bracelet to step up to the throne of queen and was respected by everyone.
That's why after she was reborn, she couldn't wait to send the person to Youzhou, and took the bracelet for herself, wearing it day and night.
She didn't dare tell anyone, for fear that others would covet it, and even more afraid that after it was taken away by others, they would compete with her for the position of the mother of the country.
The Third Prince's wife clenched her fists, her eyes bloodshot. She immediately requested the Third Prince to conduct a thorough investigation so that the thief could be brought to justice!
The Sixth Prince's Mansion.
After a night of drinking, the Sixth Prince woke up and found that no one had served him tea.
I stumbled out of the bedroom and found a large group of people kneeling in the yard.
"What's going on?" He sneered, as if he had seen something funny.
The confidant stepped forward, hesitated for a long time, and finally lowered his voice and said, "Master, the palace was robbed last night!"
"What?" The Sixth Prince suspected that he was hallucinating. It was not until he went to the warehouse, secret room, kitchen, and stable to check that he accepted the fact.
He immediately called the guards who were on duty last night for questioning, but found that the leader of the guards had already fled.
The Sixth Prince was furious and killed several of the servants.
Because they felt ashamed and that the news of the lost property might affect the fight for the throne, the third prince and the sixth prince chose to conceal it.
But it also put pressure on the admiral to secretly investigate who was carrying a large amount of supplies out of the city.
As for the Third Prince's wife's family home and General Yang's residence, no burglary was discovered in the residence for the time being because nothing was visible missing.
***
Chi Xingyue stopped singing on the ox cart only after her throat became dry.
After more than a month, the depression that had been suppressed in my heart was finally released.
He took out two pieces of watermelon from the space, one for himself and one for Ling Jiheng.
After eating, collect the melon peels and bury them in the soil. They can be used as fertilizer after they rot.
After chatting with Ling Jiheng for a while, I went back to tidy up the space.
Boxes were placed on the empty land. When they were opened, they were filled with either gold, pearls or jade.
There are also some exquisite porcelain, coral agate, silk and satin, rare ancient books, and precious food ingredients such as blood swallows and snow clams.
