Chapter 323: Finding a dark room or something, I'm good at it
Hearing him say this, Yuan Man blinked and asked, "Has the Xingyuan Escort Agency also been squeezed out?"
Yuan Rui and Fu Ling did not report it, so I guess everything is fine.
Yuan Yi shook his head and said, "No, the people from Xingyuan Escort Agency are all good at martial arts. They tried to rob the escort several times but failed."
"When I went there, the people from Zhengdao Escort Agency were discussing a surprise attack on the escort team from Xingyuan Escort Agency. I heard that the escort they were escorting this time was An Xianming's own property."
"If the sneak attack is successful and the dart is stolen, then you win. If the sneak attack is unsuccessful and the dart is destroyed, then you still win."
Hui Chengyuan looked at Yuan Man and said, "Xingyuan Escort Agency is yours, right?"
Yuan Man nodded, "Yes, Fu Ling is in charge now."
"Zheng Dao doesn't sound like the name of an escort agency. Zheng Dao, you really are not afraid of people's suspicion."
Hui Chengyuan looked at the records in the property book, "Openly it is an escort agency, but secretly it is a powerful organization."
"Yuan Yi, go investigate further. Tomorrow we will take people over to seize this Zheng Dao."
"Yes." Yuan Yi responded and walked out.
As soon as Yuan Yi left, Ling Kong walked in, "Your Highness, the An family's belongings have all been cleared out, most of them are the concubines' belongings."
"There is not much cash. There are only about 30,000 taels of cash in An Xianming's yard, and the rest are various antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and two small boxes of pearls."
"I calculated it, and it's worth about fifty thousand taels."
Yuan Man propped up his chin and said, "How could a prince who wants to rebel have only less than 100,000 taels of wealth?"
"Didn't find a dark room or anything?"
Lingkong shook his head, "No, I searched the entire An Mansion and didn't see any traps."
Won Man looked at Hye Seung Won, "Let's go, find a dark room or something, I'm good at it."
"Unless An Xianming had transferred all his money out in advance, how could he not be at home? Could it be that he has another place to live?"
Hui Chengyuan stood up and followed her out. When passing Lingkong, he said, "Go tell everyone that the departure time will be postponed for two days."
When he walked out of Lexiangshan, Yuanman had disappeared.
He shook his head and walked directly towards the former Qin Palace, now the An family.
Two of Hui Chengyuan's men were guarding outside the An family's gate. When they saw her coming, they immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Crown Princess."
Yuanman waved his hand and walked in with a swagger.
The An family was now empty. The concubines had run away when An Ye Ning and An Ye Chen were executed.
However, Hui Chengyuan let the three-year-old illegitimate son stay. In his opinion, all his sons were dead, and only this young illegitimate son was left alive. It was impossible for An Xianming to ignore him.
When Yuanman walked to the main courtyard, he saw a nanny holding the three-year-old An Yefei and coaxing him.
When Mammy saw her, she immediately stood up and saluted, then asked, "Who are you?"
She was an old resident of the palace. Hui Chengyuan kept her to take care of the young master because she was honest. But she had never seen this person in such a long time.
Yuan Man waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. Do you know which room An Xianming lives in? Where is his study?"
The nanny paused and pointed, "Wang... the master of the family used to live in this room, and the study is next door."
Yuan Man glanced at the child in her arms, surprise in her eyes, but she didn't care much and turned into An Xianming's room.
Everything in the house had been taken away, leaving only empty shelves and some tables and chairs.
Yuan Man looked around carefully, looking at each place one by one. When she came to a mural, the maid came in and asked, "What are you looking for?"
"Everything here has been taken away by the government. There is nothing valuable except these wooden shelves."
Yuan Man did not look back, but looked at the mural carefully, "This painting is really good, but you can't take it down when you borrow it."
As the nanny's hand tightened, the child in her arms started crying. His voice was very hoarse, and it was obvious that he had cried a lot during this period.
"I'm sorry, the child was frightened."
Yuan Man glanced at her sideways, "Then you should hold him and take him to rest instead of coming here. Your mission here is to take good care of this child."
"Why, there's something you want here, and you don't want to leave?"
The nanny panicked when she saw this, but she forced a smile and said, "How could that be? I am just a servant, what can I want?"
"Besides, this is all emptied out. Even if I want to take something, I can't."
"I came here just to see if you have any instructions."
"No need. Just take good care of the child. If anything happens to him, you will be buried with him." Yuan Man turned around and continued to look at the painting in front of him.
The nanny paused, and finally walked out with the child in her arms.
Just after taking two steps, he saw the prince coming towards him, and immediately stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Your Highness the Prince."
"Your Highness, a girl just came. I wonder what she wants to do."
Hui Chengyuan raised his hand and walked past her.
The nanny frowned, looked down at the child in her arms, and finally walked out of the yard.
Hui Chengyuan walked into the room and saw Yuan Man looking up at the mural, so he walked over and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this painting?"
Yuan Man nodded, "It's not the painting that has a problem, it's the wall that has a problem."
"This wall is not covered with wallpaper, but painted with white lime. If there is a wooden board behind the lime, the lines of the lime should be vertical."
"Now you see, this is more like a wall made up of bricks. If it were blue bricks, they wouldn't be so small."
Hui Chengyuan touched it and knocked it, and it sounded solid.
Yuan Man looked around, and finally took out the Jingyun Sword, pulled Hui Chengyuan away, walked to the wall, and slashed it sideways.
Looking at what was revealed, Hui Chengyuan raised his eyebrows, looked at his wife, and gave her a thumbs up, "Great!"
Yuan Man waved his hand casually, his eyes fixed on the golden brick wall in front of him.
"Rich people, these gold bricks are so solid."
Hui Chengyuan looked at her with amusement, "You have more than this."
Yuan Man thought for a moment and said, "If it's exchanged for gold, I don't know."
Consciousness saw the backpack and looked at it. There were 100 million taels of silver. How much would it be in gold?
Without waiting for her to count, Hui Chengyuan started to scratch other walls and moved the bookshelf away.
Yuan Man didn't want to think about it anymore and started to chip away at the wall. She also wanted to see how much gold there was.
"Yuan San Yuan Si, come in and help."
Hui Chengyuan looked at the size of the wall, then used a dagger to pick off a gold brick.
Yuan Man took it and threw it, "It's so heavy, it's a real gold brick."
Hui Chengyuan leaned over to the gap and looked inside. "There's more inside. It should be double-layered."
"What!" Yuan Man also leaned over to take a look, and it was true, but there were silver bricks inside. Silver is harder than gold, so it can play a better supporting role?
