Your Highness, please spare the concubine

The golden glitter inside the wooden box is very dazzling.

Under the surrounding oil lamps and lighting techniques, it looks so luxurious.

Beside the money, there is a place to store all kinds of rare ores.

In addition to the high-quality metal mines, there is also one of the most valuable and widely used ores in the Victoria continent - magic crystal mines.

Aside from some messy minerals such as crystal mines and agate mines, there is not even a single hair in front of Willis.

Not to mention the magic crystal mine, I didn't even see its shadow.

As for other things like spices, fine cloth, brocade silk...

These things are not in Wei Lisi's consideration at all.

After seeing that the original forging was completed, and there were not many swords and spears in the area used to store weapons...

Xier You, a good-tempered person, was about to explode.

"It seems that during your absence, Wushi City has changed its owner."

"Originally you said that there were chaos in Wushi City, I thought you were scaremongering, but now it seems that what you said is not serious."

Hill You looked ugly.

She went to the surrounding shelves to count them one by one to see what was left.

And Wei Lisi sat on a box of golden dragons, her face was gloomy and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Based on the income of Wushi City in the past year, there should be at least [-] boxes of golden dragons and [-] boxes of silver dragons piled up here!

All kinds of ores and high-quality forged weapons are even more dazzling and innumerable!

The light emitted by those ores in the past, even without lighting, the treasury can still be brightly lit!

But now, it was empty as if it had been ransacked.

Dozens of boxes of golden dragons alone on the ground are a huge number for others.

But for a Wushi city...

Far from enough.

"Or, tomorrow I will bring someone to question the relevant officials." Hill You said.

She was a little afraid that Willis would do something outrageous, such as ordering the massacre of all those involved...

That would only increase the number of murders and cause unpredictable consequences.

So Hill You wanted to help her by himself.

But Wei Lisi didn't speak, just sat like that, crossed her hands, and then buried her head in it.

After a while, she stood up.

"For the time being, keep quiet about this."

As soon as Wei Lisi opened her mouth, Hill You was stunned.

"No, don't say anything?! Willis, you... aren't you angry?"

Xieryou is a little hard to understand, is this really her imperial sister?

"It's no use being angry."

Willis tried to take a deep breath.

"The other party dares to do such a thing so blatantly, do you think they are not prepared?"

"Such a huge number must involve more than Mike Millen, the deputy city lord."

Wei Lisi narrowed her eyes slightly, and a terrible shadow appeared on her face.

"I'm afraid that most of the officials and city defense forces in Wushi City have this money in their hands."

"If you accuse them of crimes, if there is no evidence, they will definitely unify their caliber. What's the use?"

"It's useless?" Xieryou snorted coldly, "Do they dare to say that they are not guilty?"

"Sister Huang, think about it, so much money, minerals and weapons are gone, what do you think they did with it?"

Willis explained.

"If it's just general corruption, it's fine to take away the golden dragon and sell the rare ore."

"When we come back, they'll have to find ways to make the treasury look less empty."

"All the signs now can only show that...the other party is waiting for us to do something, and they have already used my mother's money to make preparations."

Wei Lisi's cold voice fell, and Hill You felt a little cold behind her.

"Rebel... Rebel!? They dare to rebel!?"

Hill You exclaimed.

"It's... impossible, right?"

After all, rebellion in the mainland of Victoria will ruin its reputation.

With the precedent of betraying the master for the first time, it is very difficult that there will be no second or third time.

Therefore, when dealing with such people in general, other countries also hold an opposed attitude.

Not to mention sending troops to exterminate them, but it will also restrict their entry and exit from the country.

"It's not good to enjoy the glory and wealth in this Wushi City, why do you have to rebel?"

Shirley still couldn't believe it.

"Willis, did you think too badly about the result?"

Seeing that Hill You didn't want to believe it, Wei Lisi shook her head helplessly.

"Hehe, I'm afraid the real result will be worse than this."

"The officials below and the city defense army may not dare, but the people headed by the deputy city lord may not."

After all, he was the current city lord before, managing the city lord's mansion.

The money inside must have been embezzled by him.

In other words, if he wants to rebel, he is the biggest suspected mastermind!

After changing the subject, Wei Lisi said again: "At first, I wanted to take my time, but now it seems that our time is running out, Miss Huang."

"Willis, do you think things are too bad?"

It was still hard for Xieryou to believe that anyone dared to rebel.

Although misappropriating such a huge amount of property is equivalent to a capital crime.

But that is of a completely different nature from rebellion!

Hill You hoped that Mike Millen would see the money and be blinded by greed for a while.

Otherwise, if they really use the money to corrupt Wushi City and deliberately plot rebellion...

Their situation is really dangerous!

"It's Huang Jie, you think too simply. In this world, people's hearts are like the sun, so you can't look directly at them."

Willis said lightly.

"What's more, going to the east is the Amis Strait, as long as you escape to the sea, and then change your appearance... Don't they take such a huge amount of wealth for nothing?"

Xieryou was taken aback by Wei Lisi's analysis, almost believing her alarmist words.

In the end, she tentatively asked: "Since it's so dangerous, why don't we leave Wushi City overnight?"

"Leave?" Willis shook her head.

"After entering this place, you can leave if you want. Miss Huang, why don't you understand?"

"Escaping is not only giving the other party a chance to secretly gather strength to kill us, it is also not in line with my identity as an imperial concubine!"

Wei Lisi said coldly: "I am the princess of the empire! How can I be afraid of these young people!"

"Dare to provoke me, I was considered ignorant and ignorant in the past, but now, I will destroy them forever!"

"In this Wushi City, I am the lord, and I am the sky! After leaving here, Miss Huang, have you forgotten the attack of Youfenggu?"

Hill You was taken aback by Wei Lisi's words.

Finally, she asked, "So what are we going to do?"

"The money……"

While speaking, Wei Lisi leaned close to Hill You's ear and whispered a few words to her.

"Ah? Royal sister, do you really want to do this?"

"We don't have time, we must hurry up," Wei Lisi said.

"However, thinking that we arrived at Wushi City half a day earlier, it must have disrupted many people's plans."

"And this is an advantage we can take advantage of!"

Seeing Wei Lisi adjust her mentality and make arrangements so quickly, Hill You showed a complicated expression.

Her imperial sister has really changed a lot.

Maybe it's because of too many assassinations recently.

She is so young, she should have been hiding behind her sister, but now...

===

the other side.

After being kicked out of the City Lord's Mansion by Hill You, Mike Millen returned to his home.

His home has been expanded, and now it is even more grand and spacious than the City Lord's Mansion.

If someone comes in to take a look, they will be shocked by the luxury inside.

And the most frightening thing is not the wealth of Mike Millen's family...

It was the rows of guards standing guard from the courtyard to the gate.

Roughly estimated, there are as many as 300 people!

All the equipment is well-equipped, and they can walk like dragons and tigers!

They are all tough soldiers who are often trained!

"Haha, Brother Mike, you are really fast enough to gather people back from the surrounding area in one day?!"

The man from outside the mansion is one of the commanders of the city defense army of Wushi City, and also a baron aristocrat granted by the empire——

Mick Ingram.

He looked about 30 years old, always wore a top hat, and looked more like a nobleman than MacMillan.

And he is taller, and his rich life makes him a little fatter.

But on the whole, he was still a handsome middle-aged man.

"So it was you... I thought it was Willis coming..."

Seeing the person coming, Mike Millen scolded with a smile.

"Who would have thought that they would arrive at Wushi City this afternoon after traveling day and night, and there are still two thousand of our people who have not been called back from the mine outside..."

"However, these 300 people are enough for self-protection. Have the people outside made arrangements?"

The other party nodded and said: "They have just entered the city not long ago, and they have already made arrangements to live in various strongholds."

"Did Wei Lisi find out? What about the City Defense Army?"

Mick Ingram replied: "Neither side should have discovered our intentions...but if they all concentrate here, they might be discovered."

"Then to be on the safe side, let them stay in the stronghold first."

The two were silent for half a minute, and then Mick spoke first.

"If it weren't for the 300 people who couldn't be moved in a hurry, it would be easy for Wei Lisi to notice that there are too many people, and there is no room for more people here..."

Mick sneered and said, "Otherwise, just use 1000 people to ambush and tell Wei Lisi to die!"
