The capital is a melon field, I happily eat melons

Moving out everything in Duke Chen's mansion one by one did attract a lot of people's attention.

The people didn't know what was going on, but looking at the situation they thought it was a house search.

"Duke Chen's mansion was raided? What crime did he commit to get his house raided?"

"I don't know. I haven't heard of any crime. But the people in the Chengguo Mansion are really annoying. They are arrogant and look down on everyone. The last time they passed by my vegetable stall, their eldest son thought my stall was blocking his way and kicked my stall away. I asked for compensation and he gave me 10 cents. It really pissed me off!"

"They really deserve it, but will they be thrown into jail after their homes are searched? There has been no order yet to specify what crime they have committed."

The people gathered at the gate of Duke Chen's mansion, talking in a flurry, and the people inside did not dare to come out.

"It's over! How are we going to live from now on? Everything is gone!"

The Duchess's wife cried so miserably that if you didn't know her well you would have thought her husband had died.

The others were also sobbing with their heads down. They were all used to this kind of extravagant life, and the gap of having to suddenly return to normal life was too big.

There are many wealthy officials in the court, especially those who have accumulated wealth for several generations, such as Lin Mo's family. The Lin family is a scholarly and noble family. Counting back three or four generations, the wealth accumulated over three or four generations is immeasurable.

Moreover, the Lin family was one of the families that donated the most money every year. Although they were rich, the emperor didn't say anything about it, nor did he covet their property or confiscate their property.

Because this is all earned through the hard work of their ancestors, and the money is all earned cleanly.

It is normal for their money to be taken back since it was not obtained cleanly.

Lin Mo and Bai Xiao somehow mixed into the crowd and kept looking around with their heads tilted.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, so many good things. I guess the late emperor must have bestowed more than this. They must have used a lot of them."

It has been more than ten times since they were carried in, and things are still coming out continuously.

Bai Xiao: "Do you want to take a look inside? I know a place where you can get in!"

The two looked at each other and happily went to find a trail.

There is a small gate at the back of Duke Chen's Mansion. Normally, it is guarded by someone, but today it was too chaotic, so no one was arranged to guard it.

The main thing is that there is no point in guarding it. There is nothing valuable in the house, so what's the point of guarding it?

Lin Mo and Bai Xiao sneaked over and mixed in.

As soon as I entered, I heard a burst of crying and shouting.

[Ah! She cried so miserably.]

When Lin Mo's voice came out, the people in the Chen family stopped crying for two seconds.

Why did this little ancestor come here? Did he come here just to see their jokes?

The eldest son of the Chen family wiped his tears and was about to look in that direction. From his movements it seemed that he was about to walk over, but he was slapped in the face by Duke Chen.

"What are you looking at! If you want to cry, cry properly!"

He knew that his eldest son was reckless. If he really let him expose the fact that they could hear Lin Mo's inner thoughts, it would not be as simple as returning these things. He might really punish him!

It's no use being angry with this little devil. You still have to smile when facing her. You really can't afford to offend this person, not at all!

The eldest son felt really aggrieved after being slapped by his own father.

If it weren't for her, how could their family have encountered such a change, and he would still be the eldest son of a wealthy Duke's mansion.

His father is now beating him for her, what's the logic behind this!

[Tsk tsk tsk, their house is really empty after that thing was moved away. How rich was the late emperor? It was not enough to support so many concubines, but also to support their families. If he had left some money for the emperor, the emperor would not be so poor. ]

Lin Mo couldn't even imagine how rich the late emperor was. Concubine Chen was not the most favored one. She was just average.

The favored and the unfavored also include their families. How much money will it cost to support them?

Bai Xiao thought about it for a while and counted on his fingers.

[When the late emperor first ascended the throne, the national treasury was at its most abundant. The late emperor himself also had a lot of assets. His mother's family was also relatively wealthy. His mother was the only daughter of the richest businessman in Dayong. Do you think he was rich?]

The only daughter of the richest businessman in Dayong, no wonder the late emperor was so rich, it turns out that his grandfather was rich!

[The late emperor's mother was able to enter the harem because her family was rich. This could be considered as being destitute. The late emperor's mother was then named a noble concubine. She died when the late emperor was 15 years old. She was murdered. The late emperor also had his hand in this. He did not want his biological mother to be the daughter of a merchant. Later, he found the then queen as a backer, but all the property of the noble concubine and her family was inherited by the late emperor.]

[I have to say that the late emperor was really amazing. At that time, the national treasury was filled by his grandfather's family. The country did not spend so much money. After he ascended the throne, he spent all the inheritance. ]

Bai Xiao didn't know what to say, he could only say that this person was selfish and vicious.

The late emperor was not unaware of how fierce the struggles in the harem were, but he just stood high above and watched these women compete for his favor. When he was happy, he would reward these women with something, and when he was unhappy, he would banish them to the cold palace.

If all the women in the harem are bad people, then he is the worst of the bad people, because he is the one who forced them to become like this.

The Chen family was forced to listen.

After hearing these words, even they felt that the late emperor was a bit inhuman.

Not a good son, not a good husband, and even less a good father.

He could even kill his own mother and spend the money left by his mother. He watched the women in the harem fighting for his favor and his own children being killed by these women. He did not leave any money for his descendants after his death.

No, how could such a person become an emperor and live a life of ease and luxury? Sometimes God is really unfair!

After listening to what Bai Xiao said, Lin Mo completely hated the late emperor. Although he was dead, he had become the person she hated the most.

[Xiaobai, it’s a good thing that the emperor is not like the last emperor, otherwise our country would be doomed.]

Bai Xiao: [Yes, the emperor looks like his mother, not like that damned previous emperor.]
