Chapter 160: Are you sure you can choose the Prime Minister's Mansion?
"No matter whether you really eat it or not, the things on the emperor's gift list must be delivered to Yuehua Cottage before I come back. If one thing is missing, I will chop off one finger of each of you. If two things are missing, I will chop off two. If all are missing, you won't be able to save either of your hands." Ye Qianning was not joking at all.
Xiang Mingli panicked. He had used some of the rewards to pay off his gambling debts two days ago. How could he get them back?
The old lady was extremely panicked. Some of it was indeed eaten by her, and some was taken back to her parents' home by the second son's wife. Where could she find it?
"I won't be back until tomorrow, so you have one day, take care of yourself." Ye Qianning said and left.
Luo Xuan stepped forward and said, "Miss, everyone is here."
Ye Qianning looked over and saw that they were all teenagers around eighteen or nineteen years old, all of them were tall and straight, and all of them were masters.
"Greetings, young lady." The hidden guards all knelt on one knee and saluted.
"Get up."
"Yes, Miss."
"Are you twenty-one people confident that you can take over the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Ye Qianning asked.
The twenty-one hidden guards were all stunned, then said, "Yes."
"Louder, I didn't hear you."
"have!"
The voice is high.
"Okay, let's go." Ye Qianning walked towards the gate.
The secret guards followed.
Some people in the back were stunned by what they heard...
Picked the Prime Minister's Mansion?
Oh my god, is this kid serious?
"Mother, she...she...brought people to attack the Prime Minister's residence." Xiang Mingli was terrified. She even dared to lead people to attack the Prime Minister...
Old Madam Xiang was also frightened. The guards of the Xiang family were so respectful to her and obeyed the words of an outsider.
"Mom, look at her attitude. I feel like she'll really chop off our hands when she comes back. What should we do?"
"What else can we do? Why don't you return the things you took away?" Old Madam Xiang scolded angrily. If she was from the Xiang family, she could have let Marquis Ming turn a blind eye.
Now they are killing all the family members!
"there is none left."
"What? Where did it go?"
"I owed money at the gambling house... I used it all to pay off my debts."
"Oh my, you spendthrift, now it's fatal." Old Madam Xiang was so frightened that she almost fainted.
"Mom, please think of a solution."
"What else can we do? Go find your elder brother." He pushed the old lady.
"Okay, okay, I'll go to the palace gate and wait for big brother to come out."
——
Ye Qianning was sitting in a carriage, followed by more than 20 secret guards. The dignitaries from all sides had seen a lot of places like Kyoto City, and they knew at a glance that the person in the carriage was not a good person, so they all made way for him.
The car passed through the busy streets unhindered. The higher-ranking officials and powerful families in Kyoto recognized at a glance that the guards following the car were all secret guards, and judging by their attire, they all seemed to be mid-level to high-level secret guards.
The carriage sign is pointing towards the General's Mansion. What is the purpose of such a grand ceremony?
Everyone was curious and sent their guards to follow quietly to see where the people from the General's Mansion were going.
About an hour later, the carriage stopped at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"The eldest lady has arrived." Luo Xuan reported.
"Go knock on the door."
Luo Xuan came to the door and knocked hard.
"Who are you looking for?" After a while, the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion opened the door.
"The Xiang family is visiting the Prime Minister's residence." Luo Xuan said coldly.
Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister's housekeeper stretched his head to take a look. His face suddenly became panicked and he said hurriedly, "My Prime Minister is not at home. Please come back another day, General."
"Go find him if he's not here." Luo Xuan said.
"We don't know where the Prime Minister has gone." The housekeeper knew something was wrong at a glance.
