946 Night Exploration, Secret of the Fire Scene in the Zoo

It is easier said than done to raise another two million taels of silver. Su Wenqing's money is all tied up in food and business, and he cannot exchange it for cash for the time being.

"How do you plan to raise the funds?" Lan Jiuqing asked.

"If we sell the shop in the remote area and lower the price a bit, it should be easy to sell." Su Wenqing sighed.

Although this approach of killing the goose that lays the eggs is unwise, he has no other choice now. He spent too much money on the snow disaster.

When Lan Jiuqing heard this, he immediately rejected it: "Those shops can't be sold for much silver, and they can't be converted into cash in a short time. Don't worry about the silver, leave it to me."

"You? Where are you going to get the money?" Jiu Qing's money was under his control. Su Wenqing didn't think Jiu Qing had any private money, nor did he think he had so much private money...

Lan Jiuqing indeed did not have that much silver, but there must be some place where he could find it.

As Su Wenqing expected, Lan Jiuqing uttered two words: "Ministry of Revenue."

"What? You want to transfer money from the Ministry of Revenue?" Su Wenqing was shocked: "If it is found out, the Minister of Revenue will be in trouble."

"Don't worry, I have my own plans." A gleam of light flashed in Lan Jiuqing's eyes, but it was unfortunately blocked by the mask. Otherwise, after Su Wenqing saw it, he would definitely observe a moment of silence for certain people.

Su Wenqing never doubted Lan Jiuqing's words. If Lan Jiuqing said he was sure, Su Wenqing would not ask any more questions. Now that the issue of the silver was resolved, Su Wenqing felt relieved and had the mind to talk about other things.

"Jiuqing, the Black Cavalry has been stationed in the Imperial Mausoleum for a long time and knows the internal structure of the Imperial Mausoleum very well. When will they take action?" The Black Cavalry made its first appearance on the Kyushu Continent. Both Su Wenqing and Lan Jiuqing attached great importance to it.

Lan Jiuqing thought for a moment and said, "Five days later, we will proceed as planned, leaving no one alive, and then we will go straight to the Imperial City."

"Okay, I'll pass the order on." Su Wenqing nodded heavily. Although he didn't understand why Jiuqing asked the Black Cavalry to come to the imperial city, he never questioned Jiuqing's orders.

"When we get to the imperial city, arrange for them to enter the city." Lan Jiuqing said again. This time, Su Wenqing did not agree directly, but made a request: "I need help."

As a businessman, he couldn't arrange a thousand people to enter the imperial city without anyone noticing.

Lan Jiuqing nodded, indicating that someone would support him when the time came.

After talking about these two major things, Lan Jiuqing asked about another person who gave him a headache.

"Where's Bu Jingyun? Any news about him?"

Bu Jingyun disappeared again, and he did it perfectly. If Su Wenqing hadn't temporarily wanted to transfer money from the World's Number One Manor, Lan Jiuqing and Su Wenqing would not have known that this guy had not returned to the World's Number One Manor after leaving Xuanxiao Palace. The news that came usually came from his deputy.

Xiao Jingjing, brother can’t help you.

Su Wenqing knew that Lan Jiuqing was angry, and did not dare to hide it, so he immediately told him the whereabouts of Bu Jingyun.

Without any surprise, Bu Jingyun went to Liancheng to find Qin Baobao.

"Can't he be a little more promising?" Lan Jiuqing's whole body exuded icy coldness, making Su Wenqing shiver.

Su Wenqing smiled bitterly and didn't dare to speak...

When Jiuqing talked about Jingyun, why didn't he think about himself? His recent performance in fighting with the emperor doesn't seem promising.

Lan Jiuqing also knew what Su Wenqing was thinking. Thinking about what he had done recently and what he was going to do next, Lan Jiuqing's tone finally returned to normal.

"Tell Bu Jingyun that this is the last time. If it happens again, I will have Qin Baobao stop taking his medicine."

Lan Jiuqing always knew what to do to make Bu Jingyun obedient. Su Wenqing wiped the sweat off his forehead and nodded quickly, indicating that he would pass on the message. As for what Bu Jingyun would do, that was none of his business.

"Where is Bu Fan? How is the situation in Beiling going?" I don't know what's wrong with Lan Jiuqing today. He just kept asking about the past, which scared Su Wenqing's heart.

"Bu Fan found traces of people on the snowy peak of Beiling. Bu Fan suspected that they were descendants of the previous dynasty. In order to confirm the news, he took a risk. As a result, all the people he brought were killed on the snowy peak of Beiling. He was also slightly injured. He is now recuperating under the snowy peak. We need to send people to support him." Su Wenqing was extremely fortunate. Even if Jiuqing had not asked, he would have paid attention to these things. Otherwise, if Jiuqing asked, it would be terrible if he could not answer.

"People from the previous dynasty?" Lan Jiuqing's eyes flashed with coldness, and he asked, "Have you found out the smuggling routes of the Wang family to Beiling?"

"No problem, we can move at any time." Su Wenqing knew very well what Lan Jiuqing wanted this route for, and it came in handy now.

"Very good, please arrange for people to transport a batch of supplies as soon as possible. I believe the people of Beiling will need them." Lan Jiuqing was ready to provide assistance to Bu Fan and let Bu Fan find out the news about Beiling.

The past and the future generations, these four words are worth Lan Jiuqing's risk.

"I understand." Su Wenqing understood it immediately. There was no need for Lan Jiuqing to explain the specific steps. He would take care of them one by one.

Lan Jiuqing has already given orders for major matters, and he does not get involved in minor matters at all, leaving them entirely to Su Wenqing and his staff. This shows trust in Su Wenqing and also reduces his own workload.

At midnight, Lan Jiuqing left the Su family's secret room. He wanted to go to Feng Mansion to see Feng Qingchen, but after thinking about it, Lan Jiuqing flew towards the imperial palace.

As there was no clue about the fire in the menagerie, Lan Jiuqing decided to give it a try and explore the Forbidden Palace at night to see if he could make any breakthrough.

No one was more familiar with the layout of the imperial palace than Lan Jiuqing. Lan Jiuqing first went to the emperor's bedroom, and when he found that the emperor was not there, he went to the imperial study.

Even if Lan Jiuqing believed that the emperor would never be so diligent and would still be in the imperial study at this time, he still had to be prepared for the worst.

As a result, of course, it is gone.

If the emperor can't be found in these two places, then he is most likely in one of the concubines' palaces. With so many young concubines entering the harem, how could the emperor not favor one or two of them?

If Lan Jiuqing wanted to know which palace the emperor was in, it would have been a piece of cake. However, he did not do so today because he knew very well that the fire in the menagerie was definitely not caused by the emperor.

Lan Jiuqing didn't have any specific target. Apart from visiting the Queen's and Imperial Noble Consort Xie's palaces, he just wandered around the harem casually, intending to visit every part of it. But he really ran into an unlucky person.

"The deed has been done. Your Majesty has no way back."

A deep male voice reached Lan Jiuqing's ears. Lan Jiuqing took a few steps back, then used the force of the force to lightly jump onto the roof, moving a gap in the tiles on the roof.

Inside the palace were the Emperor's newly appointed Concubine Chun and a man in gray. Concubine Chun's face no longer had the usual charm, but was frighteningly pale.

Hearing the gray-robed man's threats, Concubine Chun did not compromise, but said indignantly: "What do you mean by no way out? I did nothing."

"Your Majesty, you want to distance yourself from the matter now, don't you think it's too late?" The man in black sneered with disdain.

Once you get on a pirate ship, you can't get off just because you want to...
