"Ha!" Emperor Yong'an sneered. If looks could kill, Eunuch Chen would be dead.

Give me a chance? Emperor Yong'an sneered again. Who would give him a chance? He hadn't studied the mountain and river map yet, and the map was lost!

Emperor Yong'an was very angry and anxious. Not to mention the importance of the map of mountains and rivers, he had to get it back at all costs.

Emperor Yong'an did not want to cultivate a powerful opponent, so he immediately ordered the leader of the Dark Dragon Guard to come over.

As for the good things that Eunuch Lu was thinking, well, there was no way he would let Eunuch Lu leave.

Eunuch Lu is the manager of the private treasury. Who knows if it is Eunuch Lu who is crying "stop thief"?

If Eunuch Lu had no ulterior motives, why didn't he check the private vault for more than half a month?

Even if you don't count the property in your private treasury, you still have to take a look at the important map of mountains and rivers from time to time, right?

Emperor Yong'an asked himself that if he had not been so busy recently, he would definitely take time out every day to study the map of mountains and rivers.

Eunuch Lu is not as busy as him, so why can he ignore the existence of the map of mountains and rivers?

Who would believe me if I told others that I hadn't visited him for more than half a month?

Emperor Yong'an didn't believe it anyway.

Eunuch Lu was taken away by the Dark Dragon Guards, and unless something unexpected happens he will never be able to get out in this lifetime.

Emperor Yong'an sat in front of the imperial desk, thinking with a dark face who might get the map of mountains and rivers.

There was chaos in the palace at that time and the fighting lasted all night. The palace suffered heavy losses and has not been restored to this day.

If someone took advantage of the chaos to break into the private vault, not to mention stealing one map of mountains and rivers, it is possible that they would steal several.

Thinking of this, Emperor Yong'an ordered Eunuch Qiao to take people to personally count the private treasury and find out what was lost.

How did those things get lost?

Eunuch Qiao responded without breathing. It would be better to say less and make fewer mistakes at this time, and it would be better to say nothing. It would be great if he could find a chance to leave.

As for whether there was anything else lost from the private vault, Eunuch Qiao believed that there must be other treasures.

Don’t ask why, the reason is that there are too many thieves in the palace.

Those little eunuchs and palace maids, if they were ambitious enough, would dare to steal one or two things from the palace and sell them.

Among these eunuchs, apart from other things, almost all of them love money.

Eunuch Qiao asked himself, he was no exception.

The palace was busy investigating the thief within, and Yunmeng also received the imperial edict. Since Emperor Yong'an ordered an investigation, then let's investigate.

Yun Meng held the imperial edict in one hand and the calligraphy in the other, and told the Duke of Protectorate to do as he pleased as long as he didn't damage anything in the mansion.

If there really is someone so blind as to break something, don't blame her for being so rude. She might even go and tell nonsense to Emperor Yong'an.

Faced with such a blatant threat, the Duke of Protectorate was speechless. Fortunately, he had thought of it in advance and ordered his soldiers to be gentle.

Whoever dares to damage anything in the Prince Qi's Palace must pay for it. If he cannot afford it, he can sell his wife and children to pay.

Anyway, the Duke of Huguo doesn't want to take the blame, nor does he want to. Not only is this blame heavy, but the insults are also ugly, so he doesn't want to touch it at all.

The old butler accompanied the Duke of Protectorate on the search. Yun Meng simply found a table to sit down and asked the cook to serve the food.

Searching the house would take time to complete, and we couldn’t let her precious calligraphy starve.

As for the old butler’s story about the Northwest, we’ll listen to it tomorrow. That’s all for today.

The mother and son were eating delicious food and chatting. After Mobao adjusted his mood, he immediately acted like a good boy and told Yunmeng what new characters he had learned that day.

The Master praised him again.

King Rui also called him to his side to test his knowledge, and King Rui was very satisfied with Mo Bao's academic performance.

Mo Bao vividly described how Prince Rui praised him and what delicious food Princess Rui made for him.

When talking about those things, Mo Bao looked very proud, and he really liked being praised by his elders.

Yunmeng had eaten and drunk her fill, and the Duke of Protectorate had only completed one-fifth of the search of the mansion.

Yunmeng looked at the time. By the time the Duke of Huguo finished searching the mansion, it would probably be completely dark.

Tsk tsk, Emperor Yong'an is really anxious. Can't he send people to search the mansion tomorrow?

Inside the palace, Eunuch Qiao led people to count the emperor's private treasury. The more he counted, the uglier his expression became, and his initial sympathy for Eunuch Lu had disappeared.

Oh my God, who could believe that so many good things were missing from the emperor’s private treasury? If anything was not valuable, it would be lost.

As long as it is not the emperor's favorite and is not often taken out for inspection, they dare to steal it.

Are these people trying to kill themselves?

Or has someone fattened their courage?

After counting the items in the private treasury, Eunuch Qiao walked to see Emperor Yong'an with light legs.

The eunuchs who helped to count the private treasury were not much better off.

In the imperial study, Emperor Yongan listened to Eunuch Qiao's report with an expressionless face and his eyes spitting fire.

"Investigate!" Emperor Yong'an squeezed out a word coldly and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Eunuch Qiao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, fortunately the emperor did not take his anger out on him.

Fortunately, the emperor was very suspicious and did not give the private treasury to him to manage. No matter how they investigated, they could not find it on him.

Eunuch Qiao, who was relieved, quickly followed the emperor's footsteps, ready to serve at any time.

As for the Duke of Protectorate, he took his men to search the Prince of Qi's mansion inside and out, but found nothing.

Let’s take a look at the roster of Prince Qi’s Mansion. It’s very good, the names all match. But there are only so few people. How did Prince Qi’s Mansion survive that night?

But if you say it's fake, the roster cannot be faked.

In the end, the Duke of Protectorate could only convey the Emperor's intention to Yunmeng, telling Yunmeng that he could recruit another twenty soldiers to fill the fifty quota.

Yunmeng laughed after hearing this, so what did Emperor Yong'an mean?

Does a thousand palace soldiers make Emperor Yong'an unsafe?

After seeing off the Duke of Huguo, Yunmeng coaxed Mobao to sleep and quietly left the Prince of Qi's Mansion.

Yunmeng took the first batch of lists provided by Ah Hua and began to move them with great effort.

That's really true. As long as they are on the list, Yunmeng will visit them all.

This time Yunmeng is not planning to empty the grain, oil, rice and flour from various mansions, so Yunmeng's method of finding the treasure house is very simple.

She just needs to use the art of looking at qi to find the place where the treasure's aura is the strongest.

Yunmeng didn't plan to move everything out at once. She only moved to places with a strong aura of treasures and left after that.

So Yunmeng traveled very quickly and spent most of his time on the road. After dawn, Yunmeng visited all the prefectures on the list.

When they returned to Prince Qi's Mansion, Yunmeng just happened to catch Mobao getting up early. She accompanied Mobao for breakfast, and then sent Mobao to the carriage before going back to her room to take a deep sleep.

Yunmeng was sleeping soundly, but she had no idea that there was chaos in the capital.

The treasuries of thirty-one high-ranking officials were emptied overnight, and the news shocked the government and the public.

Emperor Yong'an was so shocked that he was speechless after hearing the news. If one family was a show, then were two, three, or thirty-one families all a show?

Impossible, there are royalists among these thirty-one families!

Emperor Yong'an's gaze fell on the Duke of Protectorate, who looked puzzled. What was going on? Did he want him to investigate the case?

That wouldn't work. Investigating the case was the Ministry of Justice's job, so he wouldn't steal the job from the Ministry of Justice.

How could the Duke of Protectorate have known that the Emperor was thinking that since so many families had lost their treasures, why hadn’t the Duke of Protectorate’s Mansion lost any?

Duke Protector of the Country: Thank you so much, you really care about me!
