Back in the dim corner, Feng Jiuyan flashed into the space.
Using the teleportation function of space, he successfully reached the inner library of Emperor Jiwu.
Putting on ultra-high-definition night vision goggles, Feng Jiuyan confirmed that there was no one around and walked out of the space.
Looking at the empty warehouse, Feng Jiuyan was very puzzled. Logically speaking, the dog emperor should have put the property that her mother had confiscated from the border into his private treasury.
"Could it be that the Dog Emperor is afraid of being stolen again, so -"
Thinking of this, Feng Jiuyan flashed into the space. With a thought, he came to the Zhanggan Palace of Emperor Jiwu.
There was no trace of money in the Zhanggan Palace!
Finally, she found her mother's things in a side hall of the Zhanggan Hall.
With a wave of his sleeves, not a single stitch or thread is left behind.
Feng Jiuyan came quietly and returned to the prison quietly.
Before dawn, Emperor Ji Wu jumped up from the dragon bed.
"Someone, change my clothes for me."
"I obey your command."
As soon as Emperor Ji Wu stepped out of the Zhanggan Hall, he turned and walked towards a side hall.
Zhao Gao was puzzled. "Your Majesty, where is the road to the court? Where are you going?"
"Nonsense, of course I want to go and see the rare treasures in the side hall and touch the gold bills. That will make me feel at ease."
"Your Majesty, this gold note is not going away. Who dares to do something under the emperor's nose? I don't care if they can withstand the dragon's aura."
"Tsk tsk, you are the only one who knows how to talk. With the things placed right under our noses, thieves naturally dare not steal. Open the door, we have to attend the morning court soon." Emperor Ji Wu stood in front of the door of the side hall and stepped back a few steps to make room for Zhao Gao to unlock it.
"I obey your command."
Zhao Gao took out a key from his bosom, and with a slight "click", the lock opened.
Through the crack in the door, a scream almost burst out from Zhao Gao's throat.
Did he see it wrong?
The room was actually empty!
No, most of the room was clearly filled with stuff last night.
At midnight, he accompanied His Majesty to bite the gold and sniff the silver bills.
How come the room became empty overnight?
Impossible, it must be the wrong way to open it!
He is of low status and is not worthy of opening this lock.
Yes, that must be it!!!
"Your Majesty, look, the weather is really nice this morning." Zhao Gao pointed to the sky.
Emperor Ji Wu looked up at the sky reflexively.
Zhao Gao closed the door and locked it with lightning speed.
The sky was pitch black, without a single star.
Emperor Ji Wu: "Are you old and blind?"
"Your Majesty is wise. I am indeed old and my eyesight is dim."
"Is the door open?" Emperor Ji Wu looked over. "Why is it taking so long to open a lock?"
"Your Majesty, I am of lowly status and unqualified to open this lock. It would be better for Your Majesty to open it." Zhao Gao smiled carefully and flattered.
"Yes, you are right."
Emperor Ji Wu readily took the key from Zhao Gao and unlocked the door. He pushed the door open impatiently and stepped inside.
No, nothing!
Most of the valuables in the house disappeared overnight.
Emperor Ji Wu was stunned on the spot, muttering, "How could this happen? How could this happen? Is it because I haven't woken up yet?"
"Yes, that must be it."
Emperor Ji Wu quickly closed the door and locked it. He opened it again and looked inside.
The house was still empty, nothing had changed since he had reopened the door.
Emperor Ji Wu's eyes were red, "I must kill this thief!"
"puff--"
With the new and old anger combined, Emperor Ji Wu was so furious that he spat out a mouthful of old blood, which flew three feet away.
His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Zhao Gao was terrified and watched Emperor Ji Wu fall heavily to the ground with a bang.
"Oh no! The Emperor is vomiting blood!"
For a moment, the palace was in chaos, with people and horses stumbling around. It was extremely lively.
The emperor vomited blood and fainted, and the morning court was cancelled. As a result, the news of the emperor vomiting blood and fainting spread like wildfire, even reaching the dungeon of the imperial prison.
Several jailers sat around a small square table, having a drink.
"Have you heard? The emperor vomited blood and fainted before attending court this morning. It is said that the blood sprayed three meters away and dyed the entire palace red."
"Wow, your Majesty has worked so hard. He has exhausted himself for the sake of the country."
"Tsk, this is just a rumor."
"Why, do you know the inside story?"
"I really know it! I told you not to tell anyone, my mother's sister's brother-in-law's cousin's distant relative works in the palace, and he revealed that the reason His Majesty vomited blood and fainted was because half of the property that was moved into the side hall yesterday disappeared overnight!"
"Where did the property come from? Do we need to move it into the palace in the middle of the night?"
The jailer glanced at the cell where Feng Jiuyan was, "Oh, isn't it the dowry that Madam Feng and Feng Huaijin brought back from the border for Miss Feng!"
The jailer took a sip of cold wine and continued, "Also, the day before yesterday, our Majesty fainted from anger. I heard that the entire palace was emptied by the thieves. Fortunately, the thief had a conscience and knew the importance of the matter, so the treasury was not stolen!"
"What! Someone actually dared to steal into the palace?"
"That's not true. Several plum trees in the imperial garden have been plucked out! All the fat fish in the pond have been taken away. The carts used by the imperial kitchen to buy goods have all been stolen..."
…
The jailer's voice was not loud, but Feng Jiuyan and the others still heard it.
Feng Jiuyan knows that the dog emperor is not a good person, so she will be a better person.
She pursed her lips, feeling a little regretful that she didn't get to witness the dog emperor vomiting blood and fainting.
Alas, what a pity!
Madam Feng's mood of losing her husband suddenly improved. She clapped her hands and sighed, "Great! Finally the dog emperor didn't get away with it."
Feng Jiuli agreed softly, "Yes, yes, mother is right."
The third lady's eyes widened and she exclaimed, "The palace was also robbed!"
"Shh, are you eager to die? It's a capital crime to make up stories about the royal family behind their backs." The Second Lady was so scared that she quickly tried to stop him.
If she wants to die, just die quickly, but don't drag the second wife's family of four down with her.
The Third Madam covered her mouth with her hand. After she calmed down, she lowered her voice and continued, "Could it be that they are in the same group as the thief in our house?"
After saying that, the Third Lady shook her head secretly, "No, no. If it was a thief who stole, it would be impossible for the carts, tiles, trees and other things to be taken away so easily without being noticed by the Imperial Guards. The Imperial Guards are not vegetarians either."
Feng Jiuyan sneered. The imperial guards were indeed not vegetarians. They had eaten too much ginseng, which made them slow in movement and brains. That was why she succeeded so easily.
Madam Feng had done many bad things and believed in ghosts and gods, so she interrupted, "Could it be that the gods were angered? Did the gods get angry and take away the property?"
"Then why was our house also robbed? Could it be that we have angered the gods?" Feng Jiuyan interrupted at the right time to guide the conversation.
