“How about the price?”
“I haven’t decided yet, but it shouldn’t be a problem.”
“That’s good. This way, we don’t have to worry about the meat dishes in the two restaurants.”
“That’s what I thought too. We’ll see how things turn out. If we still have some money left, we can buy another ordinary manor and store more food.”
“Alright, just make the arrangements.
“As for the money, you don’t have to worry. Don’t forget that there are many treasures in our interspace.”
When Gu Chengrui heard her say that, he immediately recalled the money she had received from Marquis Ding’an’s two families. “When you take those things out, check them clearly for any marks. Don’t wear any marks, or you’ll get into trouble.”
“I will. I’ll clean it up properly later.”
“Master, Mistress, dinner is ready. Do you want to eat now?” Qiuxiang walked in and asked.
“Let’s eat now.” Zhou Ying replied.
After Quixiang left, the couple got up and washed their hands. After sitting down, Gu Chengrui asked, “With Xiaxiang gone, the main courtyard is short of one person.”
“Hm, you found a suitable person?”
“No, but I’m just afraid that they won’t be able to handle the additional workload.”
“There’s no need. I realized that the head servant girl is usually quite relaxed. They will split the additional workload.”
Gu Chengrui nodded and did not say anything else.
Inside the palace, King Rui, Xiao Heng, and the Seventh Prince completed the search and seizure and reported to the Emperor.
The Emperor looked at the property of each family registered in the report and smiled mockingly. “There really isn’t a single honest official.”
“According to the butler of the Marquis of Ding’an Residence, there were still nearly half of the treasures in the Marquis of Ding’an Residence that weren’t there. However, when I interrogated them, they all insisted that it was stolen.
“I personally went over to take a look, and indeed, it was gone. I’m not sure if there’s any more treasure outside.”
“Are you sure everyone is accounted for?”
“Yes, they are all here. Originally, the Sun and Su Residences had sent their descendants out, but they were caught after being notified by someone.contemporary romance
“The last page of the Su Residence report is about the treasures that had been recovered and their four grandchildren.”
“Someone notified you? Mother God?”
“That’s my guess. Ordinary people don’t have such speed unless they’re keeping an eye on the two families.”
The Emperor nodded in agreement. “You may leave. Keep an eye on everyone for the next two days and see if you can still fish anyone else out.”
“Yes.” The three of them replied at the same time and turned to leave.
The Emperor called Eunuch Li in and asked him to summon King An and King Xian.
After the two came in and saluted, they asked, “Emperor, are you feeling alright?”
“I’m fine for now.
“Sit. I called you here today because I have something to discuss with you.”
“What do you want to talk about?” asked King Xian after the two of them sat down.
“Tomorrow, after dealing with this farce, I plan to abdicate.
“I also hope that you can wholeheartedly assist the new Emperor in the future.”
King An and King Xian were shocked when they heard that. They really did not expect him to abdicate. But when they saw his pale face, they looked at him with worry.
“Seeing your expressions, I’m gratified.
“I’m not afraid to tell you that there is indeed a problem with my body.”
“Of course. You chose King Rui, right?” King Xian nodded and asked.
King An also looked at him curiously.
“It seems he has some popularity. I’m here to ask you to help him in the future..”
