Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish

Not only was Lin Xiaoyue gnashing her teeth with anger, even the scouts who were craning their necks to peek felt like they wanted to punch something.

They just couldn't understand why these people thought their princess was easy to bully. Her princess was a strong and violent woman who even wild boars would run away from.

Moreover, the method was so despicable, "finding a few beggars to completely destroy the princess's innocence", what were they thinking?

How can a girl be abused like this?

It’s true that even my aunt can tolerate it, but my uncle can’t.

The scouts secretly made up their minds that if they had the chance, they would support their princess and deal with those people with evil intentions. They had to teach them a lesson and realized that not everyone could mess with them.

The scouts turned their anger into an investigation and searched more vigorously in the study, almost rubbing every inch, trying to find more evidence that could bring down the Mu family.

At this moment, another scout keenly noticed something unusual under the desk. He squatted down and carefully felt around with his hands. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he excitedly exclaimed, "Princess, there's something here."

Everyone gathered around immediately, and saw that person pressing hard under the table, and the floor tiles moved to the sides with a click, and a downward passage large enough for one person to pass appeared in front of everyone.

Zeng Jin nodded to the princess and went down first with a team member.

Everyone held their breath and waited. After a moment, Zeng Jin's low voice was heard, saying that there must be an important discovery, so everyone was asked to go down.

When the group went down the passage to the secret room, with the help of the fire started by Zeng Jin and the guards, they could see the room full of dazzling gold, silver and jewels that were so dazzling that it was almost impossible to open their eyes.

"This, this is too exaggerated."

"Such a wealthy family is hidden in a border city. No wonder the Mu family is so arrogant in Yongzhou City and even ignores the governor."

"Wow, I've never seen such a mountain of gold and silver. Today I've really opened my eyes. How many lifetimes did the Mu family have to accumulate so much money?"

"Hmph, it's not accumulated over several lifetimes, but they have lost their conscience and become traitors. Princess, look." Zeng Jin led Lin Xiaoyue to the eight boxes piled high on one side in front of everyone's astonishment, pointed at the gunpowder weapons inside and said, "Princess, we remember that this is the gunpowder you invented. It's impossible for outsiders to make it except for you to present the formula to the royal family. The Mu family's secret room was able to collect so much gunpowder, it must have been stolen."

"And this." The scout who came down with Zeng Jin handed over a wooden box containing a letter. Lin Xiaoyue took it and opened it. The shocking content of the letter shocked her so much that she almost forgot her ability to organize language.

This Mr. Mu is a ruthless man. He even dares to collaborate with the enemy and sell out his country.

The letter in her hand was the evidence of Master Mu's dealings with the Kingdom of Jin. General Qian was his contact person, and this batch of gunpowder was the gunpowder that was sent from the imperial city to the border but was robbed on the way and its whereabouts were unknown.

After General Qian and his men intercepted the gunpowder, he expected that the various government offices would definitely track down the missing gunpowder weapons, so he secretly contacted Master Mu and asked him to hide the gunpowder weapons under the goods of the Mu family caravan to conceal their whereabouts and bring them back to the state capital for safekeeping. He would send someone to retrieve them after the storm had passed.

"This traitor turned out to be a spy for the Jin Kingdom, and he buried it really deep."

"Damn it, I hate traitors the most. They sell out the country for their own selfish interests and put the people in dire straits. Their crimes are simply unforgivable."

"If it were me, I would just chop this Mu grandson to pieces and rid the people of this scourge."

The scouts were so angry that they were shaking all over and their teeth were almost broken.

Yes, they are all good soldiers who defended the territory for the country and the people on the battlefield. These traitors are naturally the ones they hate the most. They would think it's cheap to eat them alive. How can everyone bear not to be furious.

Lin Xiaoyue didn't expect that she would end up digging up the Mu family's "graves" just to dig up some evidence of the Mu family's uncleanliness.

Tsk tsk tsk, God's will can be forgiven, but one's own will cannot. The Mu family is really tired of living, they are not so capable of courting death.

Lin Xiaoyue shook the evidence in her hand, bit her lower lip lightly, and held back her laughter: Master Mu, now that you have fallen into my hands, you'll just have to wish you good luck.

Glancing at the dazzling piles of gold and silver jewelry, gold bricks and silver ingots, Lin Xiaoyue squatted down and picked up a heavy gold ingot, "Everyone, pick some from here and take them with you."

All of them had served in the military before, and they knew that if the vanguard soldiers could break into the enemy camp, they would take the greatest risk, so their superiors would turn a blind eye and let them plunder first, which was considered an invisible benefit for the soldiers in the vanguard camp.

The princess asked them to pick some to take, which meant the same thing.

only……

"Princess, all this is..." Liu'er frowned, thinking that all this must be the blood and sweat of the people of the Dayuan Dynasty that was plundered by the Mu family. It is the crystallization of the people's blood, tears and suffering, and they cannot touch this hard-earned money.

Everyone looked at the room full of ill-gotten gains without any greed or possession in their eyes. Instead, their clenched fists revealed their anger and contempt for the Mu family's treasonous behavior.

"Take some with you as a reward for your hard work on this mission." Lin Xiaoyue sighed and held out her hand to stop them from retorting. "Blow up the rest... Otherwise, do you think we can take away all the treasures here? Since we can't take them away, it's better to blow them all up instead of leaving them for the Mu family to benefit the enemy."

"What the group leader means is..."

This time no one refuted Lin Xiaoyue's words, but looked at her with bright eyes.

Lin Xiaoyue didn't say much. She reached out and patted the eight boxes of gunpowder and weapons beside her. Her unfinished words were self-evident.

After hearing Lin Xiaoyue's words, the people who still had resentment on their faces suddenly came to their senses after considering the actions of her men.

Yes, they were confused at the time and only thought that the huge wealth before them was the hard-earned money that the Mu family had extorted from the people of the Dayuan Dynasty by using despicable and vicious means.

However, they overlooked the fact that if they could not take the money away, keeping it would be tantamount to aiding the enemy in disguise.

Rather than doing this, it would be better to destroy it completely. This would not only make the Mu family suffer a heavy loss, but also indirectly reduce the military funds that the enemy countries extract from the Dayuan Dynasty and use to strengthen other countries' armies.

After figuring it out, everyone stopped hesitating and turned to pick out the valuables that were not too heavy to take from the mountain of gold and silver.

After about half a cup of tea, Lin Xiaoyue looked at the members of the investigation team in front of her. Each of them had his chest bulged with stuff. Even so, there was no sign that the gold and silver mines here had been reduced.

From this we can see that the treasures here are so numerous that they cannot be measured.
