Chapter 46
Cheng Chen hurriedly shut up, and looked in Cheng Yimo's direction, unexpectedly, she didn't see anyone.Even Cheng Li's figure was gone.

While he was saluting tremblingly, Yi Mo took the lead to enter the accounting room.

Cheng Li's gaze followed Cheng Yimo all the time, and when he saw her enter the room, he hurried to her.This little ancestor came back to get the money, what if he didn't look at it and emptied the palace? !

When Suzaku helped Chengchen into the room, he saw Cheng Yimo rummaging up and down in the account room, and the old housekeeper was sweating and following her buttocks, and kept muttering, "Ancestor, little ancestor, please slow down." , these are ledgers, don't throw them around. What do you want, I'll find it for you..."

Cheng Yimo didn't even give him the corner of his eye, and finally found the general ledger book of the Wangfu for several years on the top shelf, and then he didn't let go of it.

Seeing her holding the ledger and looking at it non-stop, Chengchen really didn't understand what she was going to do?
"Miss, you are..."

Cheng Yimo ignored him, and directly turned to the last page of the ledger. When he saw the number recorded on it, he raised his eyebrows in surprise: 1000 million taels of silver!
The cash was twice as much as she expected.

Immediately, unstoppable joy appeared on the beautiful face, pointing to the account book, looking at the confused Chengchen, and said, "Take out the 1000 million taels of cash in the treasury."

These words made Chengchen's heart pounding with fright, if Suzaku hadn't been protecting him, he would have slumped to the ground long ago.Cheng Li was not much better, he slid down the grand teacher's chair, muttered in a low voice with a dead face, "1000 million taels, 1000 million taels, it's over..." That crazy look was like having lost his mind. .

Cheng Yimo didn't care about them, and went straight to the main courtyard where Cheng Xi lived, and found the key to the warehouse under a movable celadon slab in the left corner under Cheng Xi's bed. Get it.

cough cough!It's not because Cheng Yimo, a murderous bastard, has such a good memory, but that bastard Cheng Yimo's IQ is too low, and he hides things—ten years like a day!
When Cheng Yimo became a monk ten years ago, he hid the key there, and when he came back ten years later, the key was still there.

With 1000 million taels of silver, Cheng Yimo felt that it was not enough. He had the weapons for the [-] soldiers, and the armor for the [-] heavy cavalry, but the horses were not yet available.In order to raise the most elite heavy cavalry, horses are the most critical step. It is better to choose the best horses than shortages.

It's a pity that the palace only has 1000 million taels of cash in cash, and the rest are land deeds for taxable land and real estate, which cannot be taken away.So the unwilling and murderous goods searched the house all over the house, and moved away everything of value, not a single penny was left.

When Cheng Xi rushed back, he pointed to the empty space at the door where the mighty bronze lion had been placed, and trembled all over his body.

"Where did I, I, the copper lion I bought for tens of thousands of taels go?!"

The housekeeper, who was holding a ball together and crying like tears, burst into tears when he saw the attack, "My lord, you are finally back. My lord——"

Cheng Xi didn't care about them, ran into the study frantically, pushed open the door, saw the ransacked room, and cried harder than the two housekeepers, "I bought the vase for 2 taels, and there are 3 more Snuff bottles bought in taels, imperial camphor wood sleepers bought for 10 taels, starling parrots bought for 20 taels, chamber pots inlaid with gold, glazed boots inlaid with seven-color shells... Woo! No more, no more, all gone! "

Suddenly, the three of them cried together.

When Jingyang and Yudie came back from offering incense at the Xiaoye Temple, what they saw was their mourning appearance with the sky falling.

Jingyang hurriedly stepped forward to help Cheng Xi up, and said in a panic, "What's the matter? What's the matter?"

"It's gone, it's gone, I've lost everything. Uwah—" A big old man cried out of breath.

"Princess, concubine, you are back, woohoo, you are back..." The two top stewards of the palace also completely disregarded their face, crying with snot and tears.

Jingyang gave Aunt Yun a wink, Aunt Yun understood, and Yueping helped up a steward, and went into the study with Cheng Xi supported by Jingyang.

Before leaving, Jingyang glanced at the bewildered Yudie, and said softly, "Go back to the house first."

"Yes." Yudie responded meekly, saluted in a proper manner, and returned to the bamboo garden with the help of the maid Xiaotong.

As soon as he left the yard, Xiaotong couldn't help but asked curiously: "Miss, what happened? We were fine when we left, why did we come back like this..." Recalling the mess in the palace, Xiaotong was startled, "Could it be that you got robbed?"

"What kind of thief is so bold that he dares to steal things in the palace?" Yu Die gently took off her veil, her pretty face still showed some panic, obviously frightened by the scene just now.

In Yudie's eyes, Cheng Xi is the king of the palace. Although he is not as cold and solemn as his grandfather in his memory, he has a noble status and a detached position. He is always full of prestige in front of people.Even the two old stewards, who were always serious and cautious, collapsed like this. What important things were stolen?

Yudie is a woman brought up in a deep boudoir, the submissiveness in her bones makes her not think too much about certain things, let alone ask too much, since her mother told her to go back to the house, she obediently went back to the house.

When she and Xiaotong returned to the courtyard, they saw a group of servants busy in the courtyard.A reckless servant hurried past her and almost knocked her to the ground. Fortunately, Xiaotong supported her quickly and asked nervously, "Miss, are you alright?"

Yudie rubbed her sore arm and shook her head, "It's fine."

Seeing that she was fine, Xiaotong breathed a sigh of relief.Immediately, he raised his head and glared at the young servant angrily, and scolded in a sharp voice, "How do you walk? You don't have eyes? Our young lady is the treasure that the princess holds in the palm of her hand. If she gets hurt, I'll see if the princess picks you up." Dog head!"

The little servant turned pale with fright, and quickly kowtowed to admit his mistake, "Miss, please forgive me. This servant didn't mean it. I didn't see you here. If I saw you, I will give this servant a hundred courage, and this servant will not dare to bump into you." ..."

Yudie cast a reproachful glance at Xiaotong, "Don't scare him." Then she helped up the boy who was kneeling on the ground, smiled softly, and said gently and kindly, "It's okay, you... Huh? yes?"

I saw the young servant was carrying a pot of delicate and graceful peony flowers, the peonies of the two sisters were blooming just right, one was delicate and beautiful, and the other was just about to bloom, it was very lovely to look at.

Seeing that the young lady didn't punish him, the boy boldly replied, "It's a peony."

"I know." She planted this pot of Shuangshu peonies by herself, and she took care of them every day to grow so delicate and beautiful.What she's asking is, "Where are you taking it?"

"The old housekeeper told me to take it to the side yard and not put it in this yard. He said that the little princess came back today and saw flowers in the yard and didn't like it."
