After drinking a bowl of gruel, he finally recovered a bit. Yin Xu asked, "What happened outside these few days? Eldest Prince, are they leaving?"

The butler was picking up vegetables for him with chopsticks, and told him to eat more, taking the time to reply: "It seems that he left the day before yesterday. Before he left, the First Prince sent someone to send a box of things, saying it was a reward for you."

"What did you give?" Yin Xu asked dispensably.

The butler's expression twisted, and he lowered his head and replied, "It's three quilts."

"...Oh." Yin Xu twitched the corner of his mouth and sighed: "Tsk tsk, it seems that His Royal Highness is not very open-minded."

Yin Xu did it on purpose that night. The villa is so big, it is not difficult at all to vacate four or five rooms, and it is not difficult to find a quilt.

He's just upset that someone is dominating his territory.

"Don't say this outside, be careful that it comes out of your mouth."

"Don't worry, I know." Yin Xu suddenly thought of something and asked the housekeeper to bring over his dirty clothes.

He took out the three bank notes from the inside, and Yin Xu handed them to the steward: "Take it, use this money to repair the inside and outside of the village, and build a big hot water pool. My young master is fed up with this cramped place." the bathtub."

The butler stared at the bank note in his hand with wide eyes, and the hand holding the bank note began to shake, "This... this... where did the money come from?"

Yin Xu gave him a "why ask so much" look.

The butler stared at his young master for a long time, and was sure he couldn't get an answer, so he quickly put away the bank note, money is better than nothing.

With this money, they will live well for the next whole year.

Huo Yilong hadn't slept well for three whole days, with big dark circles under his eyes, he looked rather haggard.

"Still haven't found it?" He asked coldly.

There were four big men kneeling in front of him, and they lowered their heads when they heard this.

"Master, we have carefully cross-examined, and it is true that no outsider entered the main courtyard that night."

Huo Yilong crushed the teacup in his hand, "Has no outsider ever gone in? Would the banknote that the young master kept next to him still run away by himself? Or... you idiots guarding yourself and stealing it?"

"Subordinates dare not!" The four guards replied in unison.

"Hmph! I'm sorry you don't dare!" Huo Yilong didn't really doubt his guards. These people had been with him for more than ten years. If they were really greedy for money, they would have had countless opportunities to attack them as early as in the Huo family.

But it is a fact that the 3000 taels of silver note that he kept next to him disappeared, and he can definitely lose it that night. If no one has entered his room, then hell!

But this matter itself is quite weird. If someone really stole it, how could he not notice it?

His vigilance is not low, and his skills are not weak, how can people touch the bank notes close to him without knowing it?

Unless he was drugged at the time, he couldn't wake up even if he wanted to.

Thinking of my state that day, it was really possible, but I don't know where the master came from, and could come and go freely in the heavily guarded county government office without being discovered.

"Master, why don't we let County Magistrate Chen investigate it? After all, it was stolen from his place. Even if County Magistrate Chen can't find out the thief, he should compensate you for the loss."

Huo Yilong glared at the person who spoke, "You want to embarrass me, right? If outsiders know that I don't even know that there are thieves close to me when I'm sleeping, wouldn't it make people laugh?"

"Subordinates dare not!" The speaker hastily lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

Huo Yilong was angry for a while, and then waved his hands, "Forget it, it's just 3000 taels of silver, if you lose it, you lose it. The thief was able to break into my young master's bedroom quietly. He must be a master. Here It’s not Kyoto, it’s better to be more cautious.”

Huo Yilong is not the kind of aristocratic son who can only be brave, in his eyes, nothing is as important as his own life.

He would not risk his own life before he had an absolute chance of winning.

It's just that he has an indescribable feeling, and he feels a little uneasy in his heart.

"Is the eldest prince still copying Buddhist scriptures in the room?" Huo Yilong asked with a worried expression.

"Yes, according to the guards next to the First Prince, His Highness has already decided to fast for seven days."

Although Huo Yilong felt that the elder prince's move was too redundant, he would not foolishly refute the elder prince's decision.

The purpose of their trip was Qu County. It was rumored that one night, the northwest of Qu County suddenly shone brightly, and then thousands of people witnessed a shocking scene. A radiant dragon shadow hovered in midair. They even I heard the dragon roar.

It's just that it lasted for a short time, and it never appeared again afterwards.

Huo Yilong didn't believe it at first, and it's not surprising that there are rumors like this every year.

But the eldest prince was worrying about the emperor's birthday ceremony, he couldn't sit still after hearing the news, no matter it was true or not, he had to go through it himself to find out.

So there was their trip to Qu County.

Huo Yilong thought that after arriving in Qu County, the rumors would be self-defeating, who would have thought that the local people's rumors were even more outrageous, and there were different opinions, some even said that this is the birth of the real dragon emperor.

Fortunately, there is no prince to be born in the palace recently, otherwise this rumor alone would cause the child to die ten times or eight times.

"It's already the third day, just wait, it's not too late." Huo Yilong waved his hand to let the guards back out, and sat cross-legged on the bed to meditate.

These days when he practiced, he couldn't concentrate. He thought it was the aftereffect of drug addiction, but after seeing him, several doctors said that he was in good health and there was no problem at all.

Huo Yilong concentrated and calmed down, held his essence in his arms, and guided his true qi to circulate through his meridians for a big cycle. Usually, at this time, he could feel the full energy in his dantian, making him feel comfortable all over, but now, running After a Sunday, he felt nothing at all.

Could it be that his Yanyang Jue has reached the bottleneck?

There are five levels in the Yanyang Jue, and he has just passed the second level, so it is logical that he did not reach the bottleneck so quickly.

Huo Yilong was a little irritable in his heart, and secretly regretted that he shouldn't spread this muddy water. His father knew that he was so close to the eldest prince, so he would have to serve him with a whip.
