Xu Yixuan originally thought that leaving Zhuangzi would not be that easy. After all, "wealth and silk move people's hearts." The most important point is that the imperial court is very poor. Originally, Yin had to eat a lot of food, not to mention that Xu Yixuan was not far away from the capital before, so Xu Yixuan often took advantage of the sheep.

Of course, the person who was least good at money was actually Emperor Qi Hui. None of the dignitaries from the aristocratic families in the capital has a small treasury. Take the Tao family of the former Zhenguogongfu, who had their entire family confiscated for "collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country". They were not considered wealthy families in the capital. Didn't they also find a lot of real money and valuable treasures?

Even if the big one among the real money was the hundred thousand taels of snowflake silver that Xu Yixuan, who had barely carried a sedan chair to marry into the house, took the initiative to hand over, even if the money was fussed to the end, it was not deposited into the Treasury of the Ministry of Households to replenish it. In previous years, that was a lot of money.

Because of this incident, the emperor seemed to have suddenly opened up the two channels of Ren and Governor. He spent the whole day looking at those leeks underneath, which made the ministers displeased. Later, the private treasury was stolen to make a big fuss.

But this kind of thing like confiscating a house and carrying it out in one go can be staged every now and then by making excuses? A single move affects the whole body. Every one of those powerful and aristocratic families in the capital has their bones broken and their tendons connected.

Therefore, even if Emperor Qihui does not consider his own throne, the scheming ministers in the court will kindly remind Emperor Qihui to quickly change his goals, otherwise...

Fortunately, the auction that Su Shang Ya Ju holds only once in several years happens to be located in the suburbs of Beijing. However, it was reported in advance that the treasure map left by that year would most likely be auctioned at this year's auction.

Regardless of whether there is a treasure map or not, in every auction, if there are not hundreds of thousands of taels, or even hundreds of taels of real gold and silver, how can it not make people excited?

So...in Zhuangzi, when the various forces started to fight with real swords and guns, the entire manor was surrounded by the Dongying Imperial Guards. Especially the front and rear gates, there are three layers outside and three layers outside for archers to focus on.

Not to mention people, even a bird (passenger pigeon) can't even think of flying out.

"Stop fighting, outside, outside..." Finally, among the people who were still playing games with each other in the village, someone realized something was wrong, and hurriedly climbed up the courtyard wall and took a peek outside.

As a result, before he could finish his words, an arrow appeared from nowhere and pierced his throat.

It's true that a hundred steps can pierce the poplar, and the arrow is not in vain.

If she hadn't been in the middle of the situation and hadn't really escaped from danger yet, Xu Yixuan, who was nearby, would have couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"The emperor really plans to kill us all. You guys, please hurry up and invite all the nobles in the pavilion over there!" The person who spoke looked like a tall, middle-aged man with an obvious expression. The local accent. But when it comes to discernment, he can tell at a glance, and his brain is quite good.

No, after realizing that the entire Chengnan Villa was now surrounded by the Dongying Imperial Guards, I immediately thought of a way.

This time, Su Shang Ya Ju's auction, perhaps after rumors that the treasure map might be auctioned, attracted more than just wealthy businessmen. Those powerful families in the capital, especially several members of the royal family.

It should be said that the second and fifth princes who were born to the first empress were also unlucky. In fact, before this, the staff of the two princes had advised them more than once on whether they should go to the Su Shang Ya Ju auction in person.

Never, never go there in person to join in the fun. Even if you use a substitute, it's better than risking it yourself.

But he couldn't stand the two princes, especially the older second prince, who was a little eager to show off. To put it bluntly, it was because the brothers' biological mother, the Queen, died of illness early, and there was no one in the palace to protect the brothers and help them ease the relationship between father and son in front of Emperor Qi Hui, who was in his prime.

In this case, we can only bite the bullet and take risks personally.

Originally, the second prince did not want his biological brother, the fifth prince, to come with him. I can't stand the deep love of brothers, but they also say that one more person means more strength. If such a calamity really happens, I will have many companions on the road to hell.

Of course, neither the second prince nor the fifth prince would sit back and wait for death. The reason for taking the risk was just to show off more of his face in front of Emperor Qi Hui. Therefore, the fifth prince thought of Miss Zhao San, who had met Xu Yixuan by chance before and had some minor disagreements.

Miss Zhao San is the legitimate daughter of Zuo Cheng's family, and the marriage partners of her first few brothers and sisters are mostly from the most powerful families in the capital. Come to think of it, no one dares to hurt this Miss Zhao San easily.

Poor Miss Zhao San, she really didn't expect that the person she admired wholeheartedly would use her as a talisman.
