Regent, the princess you found is a treasure

It would have taken an ordinary person half a month to complete the journey, but the three of them reached their destination in just two days.

The three of them first arrived at the barracks where General Cao's troops were hiding outside the capital.

When Cao Hong saw the prince coming, he hurried forward to greet him: "Prince, Princess, why did you come here suddenly?"

As for the various events that happened in the capital, those who were in the military camp were naturally well aware of them. After all, they had to keep an eye on the changes in the situation in the capital. Therefore, he had also heard about the prince and the county lady going to Qingdu City to resist the invasion of Beiliang. But he had never expected that the prince and the county lady would appear here so suddenly.

Xuan Moyin told General Cao the whole story in detail. After hearing it, General Cao was so angry that he almost burst into cursing.

He never expected that Xuan Haotian and his son were so treacherous and cunning! It would have been fine if Xuan Jingyu had set a trap to deprive the prince of his military power, but Xuan Haotian had just ascended the throne and couldn't help but want to eliminate his uncle.

"Your Highness, this matter is of great importance. Do you need me to lead a group of people to assist you?" General Cao asked seriously.

Xuan Moyin waved his hand and answered firmly, "No need to do that. I came here just to inform you that I may rarely appear in the capital in the next period of time. During this period, you must hide your whereabouts and ensure the safety of yourself and your brothers. Don't let Xuan Haotian's people notice any clues. If they unfortunately find you, you must resist without hesitation. All consequences will be borne by me alone."

General Cao clasped his fists and responded solemnly, "As you command! Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will do my best to protect everyone's safety."

"Very good." Xuan Moyin nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction. After that, he turned around, joined hands with Su Luoxue and An Yi, and under the cover of the pitch-black night, he sped towards the capital like a ghost.

It was midnight, and everything was silent. The entire capital seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil. The streets were empty except for night watchmen and patrolling Jingzhao soldiers. Occasionally, one could hear bursts of laughter coming from the willows.

Xuan Moyin and the other two swiftly shuttled through the streets and alleys, skillfully avoiding the patrolling soldiers. Their target was very clear - the granary of the Ministry of Revenue's grain road department. Galloping all the way, the three of them quickly approached their destination like ghosts.

However, at this moment, a dramatic scene occurred. The old man in charge of night watch happened to look up and caught a glimpse of three black shadows passing by like lightning. The sudden scene frightened the old man so much that his hand trembled and the gong in his hand fell to the ground with a loud "clang". This sound was very abrupt in this quiet night, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples.

Just then, a patrol team of Jingzhao Prefecture happened to pass by. The leader immediately stepped forward and asked, "Old man, what happened? You're making so much noise that even the gong fell." His eyes were as sharp as an eagle, staring at the panicked old man.

The old man quickly bent down to pick up the gong and stammered, "No...no big deal. I just dozed off and accidentally dropped the gong. I'm sorry to have disturbed you, officers!" As he spoke, he lowered his head, not daring to look at the team of soldiers for fear of revealing a flaw.

"Be more careful next time!" the leader said and left with the patrolling soldiers.

"Yes, yes, yes." The old night watchman responded quickly.

Then he rubbed his eyes and said to himself: "Oh, I'm old and my eyesight is blurry." After that, he continued to walk towards the street ahead while beating the gong. This was just a small episode.

Xuan Moyin and the other two naturally had no idea of ​​this, and they easily flew to the roof of the granary.

The Ministry of Revenue's Grain Road Office is the most important of the Ministry of Revenue besides the national treasury. Its importance is self-evident. There are about twenty granaries scattered here, and no less than ten patrol teams shuttle between them, whether day or night. However, these guards are not always on high alert, and occasionally they will be lazy and hide in secluded places to rest. After all, they firmly believe that no one dares to take the risk to steal grain.

The reason is that stealing from the national treasury is no different from this behavior. Once the crime is exposed, the person will face the death penalty with all his family members implicated. Who would dare to be so bold as to joke with the lives of himself and his family? Even those big thieves usually only target the wealthy and powerful families, and would never be stupid enough to get involved in the grain road office of the Ministry of Revenue to steal grain.

Therefore, although the number of patrol officers seems large on the surface, it is actually just a bluff. At most, it can have some deterrent effect on those who do not know the truth.

Xuan Moyin and his group did not want to alert others, so they chose to fly directly to the top of the granary and carefully opened a hole that was only wide enough for one person to pass through. Then, the three of them quickly and quietly got into it and landed steadily inside the granary.

Since the Yuan Dynasty had not been involved in a large-scale war for many years, the food reserves here were always full.

"Your Majesty, there is so much food and fodder here, but Your Majesty still refuses to send it to our army. This is really too much!" An Anyi said indignantly.

Xuan Moyin and Su Luoxue smiled at each other but said nothing. Then, Su Luoxue waved her hand lightly and the piles of food seemed to be cast under magic. Wherever her finger pointed, the food evaporated into thin air.

This was not the first time that Xuan Moyin and An Yi had seen these things, but they were still deeply shocked every time they saw Su Luoxue storing so much food into the space.

Before long, all the grain stored in the originally spacious and grand granary was moved into Su Luoxue's mysterious space.

Then the three of them quietly flew onto the roof and restored the hole on the top so that no one could see any signs of it being tampered with.

Then, following the same method, the three of them cleared out seven granaries in total, leaving the remaining ten or so untouched. Xuan Moyin said that they only needed to take back the food and fodder that they deserved, because the food was also collected from people all over the country. If they took it all away, the court would inevitably increase the collection from the people, and in the end it would be the innocent people who would suffer.

By the time they finished everything, it was just the hour of Yin and it was still dark. When they left, the patrolling soldiers in the granary still didn't notice any movement.
