Chapter 42: Emptying Eunuch De's Bedroom
"How dare you attack Ling'er? I will kill you!"
Seeing that the prince was about to slap Ye Chutang in the face, Qin Muyun immediately stood in front of her.
"Your Highness, you are the crown prince. Is it appropriate for you to covet the fiancée of Eunuch De and slander the daughter of a second-rank official?"
He didn't dare to provoke Eunuch De, but he was not afraid of the Crown Prince.
The former acts only on the basis of his likes and dislikes, while the latter seeks a good reputation.
The prince looked at the careless Qin Muyun and withdrew his hand angrily.
"Qin Muyun, you slandered the crown prince, what crime should you be punished for!"
"May I ask, Your Highness, which of my words is slander? You wanted to beat up Miss Ye for Miss Ye Er, and everyone heard and saw it clearly."
Ye Chutang looked at Qin Muyun with gratitude and saluted the prince with ferocious features.
"This commoner greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"May I ask, Your Highness, do you have any evidence for what you just said?"
Of course the prince had no evidence.
But he was sure that Ye Anling's accident was caused by Ye Chutang.
No one in the Ye family would harm Ling'er, only Ye Chutang would target her everywhere!
Qin Muyun saw that the prince was silent, so he smiled and said, "Your Highness, there is no evidence, but it is slander."
The prince snorted coldly, "She knows whether she has harmed Ling'er or not!"
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Before leaving, he glared at Ye Chutang murderously.
Ye Chutang didn't take the prince seriously.
A person who cannot protect his loved one and only knows how to exploit the people is an incompetent coward!
After the prince left, the second prince joked.
"Master Qin has never been interested in women, so why are you trying to save a beautiful woman today?"
Qin Muyun rolled his eyes at the second prince.
"The Second Prince only sees Miss Ye's beauty. He is too superficial."
"That's right. The skill that Miss Ye showed today is enough to be praised by scholars all over the world."
After saying that, the Second Prince looked at Ye Chutang and said, "Miss Ye, I was rude just now."
Ye Chutang knew that the Second Prince was not a good person, so he put on a fake smile.
"No problem."
"I wonder if I can ask Miss Ye for a poem written in a different handwriting?"
After the second prince finished speaking, he quickly added, "Ten taels of gold, I will pay."
Ye Chutang could tell that the Second Prince was testing her attitude towards the Prince.
She smiled and said, "I have told Eunuch De before that as long as I pay, I can have as many poems as you want. After all, I am not a scholar, but a layman."
Scum like this who exploits the people's blood and sweat will extort as much as they can.
The second prince glanced at Qi Yanzhou, who had a wooden face.
"Sure enough, in Miss Ye's eyes, I am not as good as Prince Chen."
Qin Muyun was worried that Ye Chutang's answer would be too straightforward and would anger the Second Prince, so he spoke first.
"Second Prince, don't compare yourself with Ziqian. When he was making great military achievements, you were still fighting crickets!"
"That's right. Prince Chen has unparalleled military achievements and is deeply loved by the people. I can't compare to him."
After the Second Prince finished mocking himself, he looked at Ye Chutang.
"It's not convenient today. I will come back another day to ask Miss Ye for her calligraphy."
"I am at your service at any time."
As soon as Ye Chutang finished speaking, Eunuch De and Ye Jingchuan came out of Ye Anling's boudoir.
Ye Jingchuan coughed lightly, "Everyone, I'm sorry, something unexpected happened today and disturbed your fun. I will give you an explanation and drink three cups as a punishment to show my apology."
Eunuch De spoke coldly, his voice sharp.
"Everyone, please go back to the front yard and back garden. I have something to say."
Everyone left.
Qi Yanzhou approached Ye Chutang inadvertently and secretly handed her the detailed layout map of the imperial palace.
Princess Anping had a feeling that there was something wrong with the two of them.
As soon as she squeezed forward, Qi Yanzhou moved away from Ye Chutang and walked away quickly.
Ye Chutang returned to the main table in the back garden and sat down, eating the half-cold food as if no one was around.
Princess Anping looked at Ye Chutang who was eating heartily and said sarcastically, "If you don't know, you would think Miss Ye hasn't eaten for a few days."
"If you are not active in eating, there is something wrong with your brain."
"you……"
Just as Princess Anping was about to lose her temper, the voice of Eunuch De, with his inner strength, spread from the front yard to the back garden.
"If anyone dares to spread a word of what happened today, they will be against this prison!"
"When the Emperor returns to the palace, he will grant me and Miss Ye Er a marriage. Please do not make any comments in private!"
"The man behind the plot against me and Miss Ye Er will be torn into pieces by me!"
After he finished speaking, everyone said in unison: "We will follow the orders of Eunuch De!"
Next, Ye Jingchuan briefly told the story he and Kong Ru had made up.
Whether you believe it or not, at least the explanation has been given on the surface.
Eunuch De left very quickly.
As soon as he left, everyone said goodbye.
After Ye Chutang had eaten and drunk his fill, he returned to Ningchuyuan.
She opened the layout of the palace that Qi Yanzhou gave her.
When spread out, it is bigger than the table.
This map is better than Gaode's. Not only are the trees clearly marked, but the people living in the palace are also described in detail.
Even where the Royal Guards were on duty and when they changed shifts were marked.
"If Prince Chen has the intention of rebellion, he can just take the emperor's head!"
After Ye Chutang finished expressing his feelings, he put away the layout diagram and entered the space.
She looked at the merit points which were nearly six thousand more than one million and upgraded the space.
Space extends outward and upward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon it turned into a huge cube with a length, width and height of one hundred meters.
Standing at the bottom with the spiritual spring as the center, Ye Chutang felt his own insignificance.
"Such a large space is enough for me to stock up on supplies!"
After saying that, Ye Chutang left the space.
She changed into a pair of convenient sportswear and sneaked through the bamboo nest to Eunuch De's bedroom.
The Xishou Palace is very large and is a courtyard with two entrances and two exits.
Its regulations are comparable to those of the emperor and empress.
Because Eunuch De was not at home and it was noon, the palace servants were all lazy and taking naps.
Ye Chutang easily knocked out the palace maid and swaggered into Eunuch De's bedroom.
The first thing she did was to take away the vital organ that Eunuch De had placed on the beam.
Then they looted all the valuables in the room.
Finally, she not only removed the gold, silver and jewel decorations from the pillars, but also took away all the golden nanmu tables, chairs and benches.
"If we take it back to the 23rd century, we can make a lot of money from bead making."
After Ye Chutang made a joke, he even pried up the jade floor.
Soon, Eunuch De's bedroom was cleaner than her freshly washed face.
She left the bedroom contentedly and searched every room.
In the study, she found Eunuch De's secret room.
"What's wrong with the ancients? All the secret rooms are in the study, and even the mechanisms are similar."
Entering the secret room, countless luminous pearls illuminated the inside in a dismal green.
It was like shooting a horror movie, extremely eerie.
Under the green light, Ye Chutang saw mountains of gold, silver, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and rare treasures.
She felt that even the Beichen Kingdom’s treasury might not be that rich!
With a wave of his hand, all the wealth that could rival a country entered the space.
Ye Chutang returned to the study. He had no time to check which letters were useful. He put all the books and letters into the space, even the mahogany bookshelf.
When she looted the Xishou Palace and left, Eunuch De happened to come back in a sedan chair.
