Chapter 416
"Everything has a cause and effect." Xie Cheng said in a low voice, "Prince Luo will become what he is today, and the Empress Dowager can't get rid of it."

If she cared a little at the time, how could Lord Luo get so close to the Yuan family?

If Lord Luo hadn't gotten close to the Yuan family, he wouldn't have been instilled with the idea of ​​being able to inherit the throne.

After all, even if the Yuan family was at fault, the Queen Mother Yuan was even more at fault.

"Let's not talk about that." Tang Xi looked at him and said, "Quickly help me estimate how much these jewels are worth?"

After talking so much, she almost forgot the business.

After Xie Cheng stepped forward to have a cursory inspection, he couldn't help but click his tongue softly, "This prince of Xinyi Kingdom is indeed rich."

Tang Xi's eyes lit up, "Are these worth much?"

Xie Cheng nodded, he casually picked up a jadeite bracelet, and said softly: "Although it is not as good as the one in your hand, this one alone is worth tens of thousands of taels."

"How many taels?" Tang Xi was shocked. "With so many things, once they are converted into cash, won't they attract the attention of others?"

"Of course it's impossible to exchange them all at once." Xie Cheng smiled, "They will exchange them bit by bit, and then transport them back to Xin Yi Kingdom. In this way, they can avoid the eyes and ears of other royal families."

"The prince of Xinyi Kingdom is indeed a smart man, but..." Tang Xi smiled triumphantly, "He probably wouldn't have thought that all these things came to me."

"After you exchange all these things, there will be at least tens of millions of taels." Xie Cheng said with a smile: "It's almost catching up with the wealth of Xie's family."

He didn't mention the national treasury. There have been disasters in the past two years. If it weren't for the presence of the Sun family, it would have been almost empty.

"A few... tens of millions?" Tang Xi was taken aback, "Are you sure you're not joking?"

"How can I lie to you?" Xie Cheng said with a smile: "You think the prince of Xinyi Kingdom is smart, but I think he is very stupid. With so many things, it is estimated that he is worth half of the property of Xinyi Kingdom. He is so defenseless. I don’t know if I trust King Anyang too much, or if I really have a big heart.”

Tang Xi said: "Tell me, if he knows that these things are gone, will he be pissed off?"

"It should be. However, King Anyang cannot be blamed. After all, he probably didn't expect that those pirates would really become pirates."

"Huh?" Tang Xi was puzzled, "Aren't they pirates?"

"I thought so too at first, but you said, how could a pirate get close to the crown prince? Besides, he had met Vice Admiral Yao, and even knew his previous background? Furthermore, with so many valuables consigned, Xinyi Kingdom's Can the prince feel at ease and hand it over to a group of pirates?"

Tang Xi also thought it made sense, "Since they're not pirates, then who are they?"

Xie Chengdao: "If I'm not wrong, they should be the people around the prince. They probably floated on the sea for too long and snatched a few search ships, so they really regarded themselves as pirates."

"There are so many valuable things on the ship, why don't they just go along?" Tang Xi said, "Take these things and go far away, isn't it more worthwhile than being a pirate?"

"Their home is in Xin Yi Country. In the final analysis, they dare to come out to take risks in order to keep their family members alive. How dare they betray so easily?"

Being a pirate probably wants to gain something from this trip, right?

As for the things on the boat, those are all listed, one by one, it is impossible to fish in troubled waters.

Unless, the list in the hands of Prince Xinyi was also lost.
