“That’s true. If they weren’t so dim-witted, how could they do such a foolish thing with that unreliable Crown Prince?” Ji Fengyao put away the incense burner and clapped her hands. “Once they wake up from this nap, they’ll have plenty of opportunities to properly repent for their lives. I’m doing this as a good deed!”
Wu Zhong and Wu Shang: "..."
Your Highness, they may not want your virtue at all.
Magpie: "Miss, you did the right thing. These people should be left to fight amongst themselves. Killing them would only dirty our hands!"
Wuhen: "..."
Sparrow, have you forgotten that you complained before that we didn't leave one for you?
Shang Xiye stretched out his hand, finally getting the chance to pull his little wife back to his side. His face was cold and his voice was icy: "My queen is naturally the most thoughtful. Time is of the essence, everyone split up and hurry up and get the things."
After saying that, he took Ji Fengyao's hand and pulled her away.
The three guards and the magpie: "..."
Your Highness and Son-in-law, what happened to our plan to split up?
Feelings only apply to them, not to the two of you!
Shang Xiye snorted inwardly: He hadn't even started praising his little wife yet, and that girl Xique had already said all the good things.
He decided that from now on, he would go out and do big things with his wife and try to bring that girl along as little as possible.
Or, let her play with Wuhen on her own!
Shang Xiye and Ji Fengyao opened the door to the first stone chamber on the left. Inside the more than 100 square meters of stone chamber, rows of tall wooden shelves were neatly stacked with red pine boxes.
The air was filled with the scents of red pine and money.
Ji Fengyao stepped forward and opened several pine wood chests in one go. Inside were crammed gold ingots, each stamped with the circulation seals of several major banks, meaning they could be taken out and spent directly!
Although gold and silver were not particularly valuable or rare in Ji Fengyao's eyes, they were indispensable in the current mortal world.
This stone chamber alone contains so many chests of gold and silver; and considering there are thirty-one more such stone chambers, Ji Fengyao couldn't help but feel her eyes sparkle.
Good heavens, the Crown Prince is a master at accumulating wealth.
The money here, if added up, could almost equal half of the national treasury!
"Your Highness, do we have enough storage rings?" Ji Fengyao asked Shang Xiye, smiling like a complete little money-grubber.
"Three more places like this would be enough," Shang Xiye reminded him, waving the bracelet Ji Fengyao had given him.
That bracelet had as many as nine storage spaces for stones.
Ji Fengyao playfully stuck out her tongue; she had completely forgotten about him.
With no worries left, Ji Fengyao waved her small hands and cleared the boxes off the large wooden shelves one by one.
Shang Xiye, standing nearby, was also busy. With a wave of his hand, rows of boxes on the wooden shelves disappeared.
The two of them collected eight or nine stone chambers in one go, which were filled with boxes of gold or silver ingots.
By the tenth stone chamber, it no longer contained gold and silver, but rather various rare and exquisite antiques and decorative items. These things might be considered beautiful in the mortal world, but in the world of cultivators, they would be considered shabby even as decorations in a room.
Ji Fengyao turned around with little interest, about to leave, when she suddenly felt a very faint but extremely familiar call.
Among these ordinary objects, one of them actually developed a spirit?
Following the faint sense of presence, Ji Fengyao walked into the rows of wooden shelves and came to the innermost corner, in front of an old wooden box with a blackened exterior.
