Chapter 367: Night Save Wenfu
Chapter 367 Save Wenfu at night
“Don’t worry, talk as you walk.”
Xiao Xuan took Yin Miao and followed the housekeeper out without saying a word.
“Our lord and wife…”
Butler Qian was crying and talking as he walked. He was just afraid of scaring the distinguished guests, because to be precise, their master and wife had committed suicide, but they were rescued before they succeeded.
He also knocked on the door and called for no one to answer before entering the room, but found two people hanging from the beam of the door, and Mrs. Liu was still looking at him with a painful expression.
He was frightened to death at the time, but he immediately called someone to put them down together.
“This king knows.”
Xiao Xuan walked very fast, the housekeeper wanted to say something else, but he was a little scared, so he had to hold back and didn’t say anything.
Mrs. and Mrs., didn’t she want to walk away because she was caught by His Royal Highness King Xuan?
Butler Qian regretted letting King Xuan in, while Xiao Xuan and Yin Miao had already arrived in Wen Zhuoyuan’s room.
There was a lot of crying in the house, most of the maids were crying, and there was a group of maids next to Liu Ru, Wen Zhuoyuan leaned weakly beside the bed, his face pale.
“Master Wen, why is this so hard?”
Seeing King Xuan coming in, the room suddenly became quiet.
Wen Zhuoyuan opened his eyes and took a look, then took his eyes back: “His Royal Highness Xuan is here to see my joke?”
“The tribunal of the three divisions has been handed over to Peng Bin, and this matter has been disconnected from this king.”
Xiao Xuan said.
“Isn’t this the result that His Royal Highness King Xuan wants? Why stop me and my master from going to Huangquan together?”
Liu Ru had a look of hatred on her face. In her opinion, King Xuan represented the imperial court.
“Mrs. Liu is serious, it’s all a misunderstanding.”
Yin Miao only felt that Liu Ru’s voice was still a little hoarse, and it was very likely that she was injured just now.
“His Royal Highness King Xuan, it’s a lot of inconvenience for you to go to office today, you’d better go back.”
Wen Zhuoyuan didn’t seem to want to say a word, and he didn’t plan to deal with it too much, because he knew that the emperor wanted to put him to death.
“Master, madam, if you have three strengths and two weaknesses, what should the servants of this manor do? Your Royal Highness, please open up and let the master and his wife go!”
Butler Qian came in late, and he begged loudly as soon as he entered the door.
Yin Miao was a little anxious, these people misunderstood them deeply.
“Sir Wen, can you talk about it alone?”
Xiao Xuan ignored the housekeeper Qian, but said.
Wen Zhuoyuan did not expect that King Xuan would come to him again. He glanced at the two of them, and finally sent everyone around him, including Mrs. Liu, out.
Liu Ru glanced at Yin Miao, but in the end she didn’t say anything and was helped out by the maid.
“Your Highness King Xuan, speak directly if you have something to say.” Wen Zhuoyuan said.
“It’s not that I want to talk to you, it’s her.”
Xiao Xuan pointed at Yin Miao, and Wen Zhuoyuan’s eyes showed doubts, he had no friendship with the Duke of Yin before.
Seeing Wen Zhuoyuan’s doubts, Yin Miao took out the letter written by Queen Qi and handed it to him.
“The Empress?”
Wen Zhuoyuan only read the handwriting and looked up at Yin Miao in shock.
These two are…
“Niangniang said that Lord Wen will know after reading it.” Yin Miao didn’t know how to explain it, so she couldn’t say that the empress had defected? So let people read the letter for themselves.
Wen Zhuoyuan leaned over and knelt in front of the two of them after reading the letter: “I beg His Royal Highness King Xuan to be the Wen residence, and also to show the way for the people!”
“Get up, this king got news today that Peng Bin is already arranging people, and it is very likely that he will bring people to the door tomorrow.”
Xiao Xuan said.
Wen Zhuoyuan was already sweating profusely after hearing this. Originally, he thought that he was dead both vertically and horizontally. It would be better if he died. Maybe those things would not be easy to be found out. That’s why he wanted to kill himself directly.
Now there is hope, but King Xuan told him that he was running out of time, and he felt anxious again.
“Your Highness, the Wen residence has gold, silver and supplies hidden up and down. If you want to transfer it overnight, I’m afraid it will be too late.”
Wen Zhuoyuan truthfully explained that there are gold, silver and some food hidden in the stone walls, stone pillars and even under the fish pond in the mansion.
“Since the Empress has already instructed, Lord Wen only needs to hand over the next thing to this king. This king has a way to ensure that even if someone comes tomorrow, there will be no clues in the mansion.”
After Xiao Xuan finished speaking, Wen Zhuoyuan no longer hesitated, and immediately closed the doors and windows, only to see that he lifted the quilt on the rattan wood bed layer by layer until the dark wood-colored bed board was exposed.
There were dark locks on both sides of the bed board, Yin Miao watched Wen Zhuoyuan take out two keys from Liu Ru’s rouge box and drawer, and then opened the dark locks.
As expected by the two of them, there is a deep secret passage under the bed board.
“Xiaguan discovered as early as half a year ago that someone had secretly withdrawn the gold, silver, and silk in the warehouse, and shipped these out of Nanxiao.
Wen Zhuo walked away and said the reason why these things were hidden here.
“No one reported to the official?”
Yin Miao asked casually.
Wen Zhuoyuan shook his head: “Some people saw it with their own eyes, but they all died unexpectedly. Some people wrote a book to remonstrate, but they were sunk in prison. Today’s capital is no longer the original capital.”
After Wen Zhuoyuan finished speaking, the three of them were silent for a moment, but it was only a moment, and the light in front of them suddenly became clear.
Yin Miao couldn’t help but marveled at the scene in front of her.
This is like an underground palace, with countless gold and silver treasures, rows of neatly placed gold bars and gold bricks, as well as countless pieces of antique jade, and even a lot of food in cloth bags…
“If these are made public, Xiaguan must be the biggest corrupt official in history.”
Wen Zhuoyuan smiled bitterly.
“Well, the one from the Nine Clan.”
Xiao Xuan replied.
Wen Zhuoyuan: “…”
“The Empress is also considered a foresight.”
Yin Miao quickly changed the subject when she saw that the atmosphere was stiff.
“This is a way out of nowhere. If we don’t intervene, the treasury will be emptied sooner or later.”
Wen Zhuoyuan did not hesitate too much, and said again: “This is only a part, and there are some in the backyard of my mansion, but I don’t know what is the best way for His Highness to move to a safe place overnight?”
“Master Wen doesn’t need to know how to transfer for the time being. You just need to tell us where the things are, and then take Wen Mansion to leave Wen Mansion for the time being, and come back tomorrow morning.”
Xiao Xuan said, this is the most convenient way he can come up with, after all, time is tight.
Wen Zhuoyuan never thought that this would be the case, but he has already died once. Now that there is hope, he agreed without hesitation.
“Will this work?”
Yin Miao whispered beside Xiao Xuan, and let the people of Wen’s house leave, and they just kept it here, wouldn’t this really cause suspicion?
