Feng Yuheng felt that she couldn't pretend anymore and smiled awkwardly, "Well, it's okay to know, but you can't tell anyone else!"
Huang Quan was speechless, "We are not stupid."
Ban Zou was rather confused: "Master, I can now let it go that you slipped away from under my nose, after all, it's not the first time. But how did you put so many things into the warehouse?" He just couldn't figure it out. In the past, he couldn't figure out how Feng Yuheng could suddenly disappear under his nose, but at least there was an explanation, such as Feng Yuheng's Qinggong was better than his... Of course, this was impossible. But this person was able to empty the treasury of so many mansions and take out all the silver from the bank, just by his own strength, this is too... too incredible, right?
How did she get into the warehouse? Feng Yuheng felt that she couldn't explain this clearly. After all, she didn't use scientific methods, but cheated with a space weapon. Otherwise, this kind of thing would be fantasy and impossible to achieve. But she couldn't tell these three people this. After thinking about it, she pretended to be deep and said, "In fact, it's not just me. His Highness the Seventh Prince helped me!" She wanted to say that Xuan Tianming helped, but then she thought again, no, Xuan Tianming was in the camp, and she was exposed, so she had to use Xuan Tianhua as a scapegoat.
But Ban Zou still didn't believe it: "No matter who helps you, there must be some noise when so many things are transported into the mansion, right? We are not blind or deaf, it is impossible that we can't hear it."
Feng Yuheng also lost his temper: "But the fact is that even if something entered the house, you really didn't see or hear anything!"
This sentence almost suffocated the whole person, but Wangchuan said, "The young lady is a very capable person, I believe it." After that, she followed the servant and said, "The master has his own methods and reasons for doing things." She didn't say the second half of the sentence. We cannot cross the line. The young lady has been very tolerant. Who has ever heard of a master who can tolerate a servant digging into people's affairs?
Huang Quan also felt that Ban Zou sometimes said too much, and she was afraid that Feng Yuheng would blame her, so she kept trying to smooth things over.
Feng Yuheng just waved his hand, not wanting to mention the matter anymore, and stopped swinging. He went back to the house without letting anyone follow him.
Seeing her enter the house and close the door, Huang Quan stomped his feet and followed her, saying, "What's wrong with you? The young lady treats us well on weekdays. That's because she is tolerant, but we can't take advantage of her, right? Where did those things come from? Why do you care where they came from? The young lady gave an explanation, and we just listened and let it go. Why are you still asking like that?"
Ban Zou had an unwilling look on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking. He just stood there without saying a word.
Wang Chuan was also anxious when she saw Ban Zou like this. She was always softer than Huang Quan, but she shook her head and advised: "Let's just do our own duties. We also know that you are worried about the master, but after all, there is a difference between master and servant. We have to grasp the scale of what to say and what not to say. The three of us are from the Yu Palace. Let's ask ourselves, if this happened to His Highness the Ninth Prince, Ban Zou, would you dare to question His Highness the Ninth Prince like this? Would you dare to talk to His Highness the Ninth Prince like this?"
Ban Zou was stunned, his eyebrows slightly moved, this person's persuasion made him suddenly wake up as if he had been enlightened. Yes! In these years of following Feng Yuheng, he felt that this master didn't have so many rules. He usually talked and laughed, and the distance between them was shortened, but how could he forget that no matter how close he was, he was still the master, and he was different from them. And what qualifications did he have to interrogate the master like that? What obligation did the master have to report to them, the servants, about what he did?
Ban Zou felt a little uncomfortable, but he was not wronged. He couldn't explain what this feeling was like, but he felt uncomfortable. He didn't want to say anything, and he disappeared into the dark again. Huang Quan shook his head helplessly, looked at Wangchuan, then looked at the room, and asked in a low voice: "Should we go in?"
Wang Chuan shook his head: "I won't go in for now." Then he advised Huang Quan: "What happened today is a lesson. The two of us are the ones who have the most contact with the young lady on weekdays. We must always remember to be tactful when speaking. We should still do what we should do on weekdays, but there are some things that the young lady doesn't want to talk about. We can't chase her and ask like Ban Zou did. No master would like such a servant."
Huang Quan nodded: "I understand."
Wang Chuan sighed and said, "Young lady is a person with great ideas and great abilities. There are some things we should not know. After all, there is no one else in the world who can stand shoulder to shoulder with young lady except His Majesty the Ninth Prince."
Several servants reflected on themselves in the yard, but Feng Yuheng in the house didn't think so at all. In her heart, there was no such thing as master and servant. Sometimes she used this status to talk about things, mostly to tease those girls. As for Ban Zou, she always regarded him as a friend. She liked this way of getting along with Ban Zou very much. They communicated with each other and said whatever they wanted. Unlike other masters and servants, the servants only nodded and responded like robots, without any personal emotions. She didn't want robots. She hoped that the people around her would have their own opinions. Even if they disagreed with her, they could speak out and argue together. This was fun. After all, she was a person from the later generations and didn't agree with the cultivation of slavery in ancient times.
Just like today, the three people outside were upset, thinking that they had made her angry, but in fact, as soon as Feng Yuheng entered the house, he just patted his chest, secretly thinking that it was a close call, and then turned around and made a face at the outside, and sat on the couch and smiled in an unpresentable manner.
She thought it was so funny that Ban Zou was so upset because he couldn't figure out the reason. The boy's tangled expression was really funny, much better than his usual cold face. But then again, the boy was also an expert at getting to the bottom of things. He asked her so many questions that she couldn't stand it without turning hostile and running away.
Feng Yuheng drank a sip of tea and began to think about the stolen silver.
She couldn't put all the money in the space, but she couldn't leave it alone. After all, it was a preparation for the war in the South Realm, and it would be used anytime and anywhere. Moreover, even if she didn't need so much money there, she was not in the capital, and she was worried about leaving it in the mansion! What if there really was a "super thief" in the world, and she stole all the money, wouldn't she feel bad?
She struggled for a while, and finally decided to leave a part of it for Xuan Tianming to take with him when he left. After all, he was leading a large army, and it would not be a problem to escort some silver. She took as much as she could carry in her space, and if there was any left, she would put it in Yao Mansion and Prince Chun's Mansion. Only when it was handed over to Yao Xian and Xuan Tianhua, she would feel at ease and not feel that she had lost out.
Someone was happily planning that when she arrived at the fiefdom, she would first use the silver to build up the fiefdom, and then when Xuan Tianming arrived in the southern boundary, she would go there and store the remaining silver there. At that time, she should also visit the homes of Luo Tianzhi and Lanzhouzhi. Last time, they gave so many things to her and Xiangrong as compensation. It has been half a year, and the treasury of the mansion should be full again, right?
The banquet at Prince Wenxuan's Mansion, which started on the tenth day of the first lunar month, lasted for two days! A grand event called "Praying for Dashun, Praying for the Emperor, and Praying for the Empress", invited all the ladies and celebrities in the capital, and even the concubines and daughters of the various mansions. Those concubines and daughters rarely had the opportunity to attend grand events on weekdays, especially when they were hosted by such a noble person as Princess Wuyang, so they were very excited when they received the invitation this time. They were so worried about praying for blessings that they wanted to bring the best things they could. After all, you can't pray empty-handed, and they all understand this truth.
But no one expected that Princess Wuyang was so evil! Some ladies thought that just throwing a hundred taels of silver would be enough, but Princess Wuyang slammed the table and said: The starting price is one thousand taels! One thousand taels is one thousand taels, but after donating one thousand taels, they still have to listen to Princess Wuyang's impassioned speech, which described the Dashun as so miserable and the rebellion of the small country in the south of the desert as so fierce, as if if they didn't donate money to support Da Lao, the small country in the south would be able to invade the capital in minutes. Moreover, Princess Wuyang also said that the border is unstable, the country is not peaceful and the people are uneasy, and the emperor is not eating well and sleeping well, and his dragon body is slightly unwell, all of which are caused by worry! Seeing that the emperor was not in good health, the queen was also worried. Look, he vomited blood a few days ago.
Ren Xifeng was sweating coldly when he heard this. He thought that only Xuan Tiange would dare to say this. If it were someone else, cursing the emperor and empress like this would be a capital crime! But this princess was not afraid of anything. Even if she poked a hole in the sky, the emperor would not say a word.
In order to cooperate with Princess Wuyang and leave a good impression in front of her, the concubines and concubines who were invited responded actively to the call and paid a thousand taels of silver without hesitation. Silver notes alone were not enough, they also showed their support for Dashun with tears in their eyes, took off all the jewelry on their heads, and threw them into the big box prepared in advance by Xuan Tiange and others.
Today, when I came to Prince Wenxuan's mansion, those concubines and concubines who usually didn't have many opportunities to show off their possessions wore their best treasures. Each hairpin was worth thousands of taels, but they donated it without blinking an eye. Some concubines even advised their daughters who were worried about their daughters: "Donate it if you need to. Your father loves us and will find a way to buy us new ones when he returns home. We don't have many opportunities to meet Princess Wuyang. It's not our turn to attend the palace banquet during the New Year."
It was a coincidence that just after he finished persuading her, he heard Xuan Tiange saying to a concubine's daughter who had donated five thousand taels of silver, "This lady is not often seen in the city. She should come out more often when she has the chance. We have met today, so come to my house often to chat with me!"
As soon as these words came out, some concubines who were still on the sidelines went crazy instantly, and almost rushed to the donation box.
