Surprise! I emptied the emperor's private treasury before exile

Thinking of this, Chu Ci suddenly lost interest in watching the fun.

She gently touched her slightly bulging belly, her eyes full of tenderness, and said firmly: "I'm going back first!"

The purple-robed envoy Yan Xin looked at Chu Ci's hurriedly departing back, his brows slightly furrowed, his deep gaze revealing complex and inexplicable emotions.

Looking at Fan Jingrui who was busy not far away, he shook his head and secretly thought about his next plan.

Then, as if he had made up his mind, his eyes became firm, he quickened his search, his gaze became sharper, not missing any corner.

At the same time, he increased supervision efforts and imposed strict requirements on everyone involved in the search to ensure that the mission could be completed efficiently.

Just by searching like this, he actually found something.

Four people who looked almost identical to Yang Zhigao appeared, but they were in terrible condition and all unconscious. Their eyes were dull and their movements were slow, as if their souls had left their bodies. They had no reaction to external stimuli and just stood there mechanically, which made people feel terrified and full of doubts.

"This..." The law enforcement officer in embroidered clothes beside Yan Xin was shocked, his mouth slightly open, but he didn't have time to say anything.

Yan Xin quickly turned his head, his expression solemn, his brows furrowed, and said, "Go and get Yi Xin..."

As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he suddenly stopped again. Chu Ci's current situation flashed through his mind like lightning. He was about to say the words to invite Chu Ci over but he swallowed them back.

Then, as if he had made a new decision, he said with a slightly helpless tone: "Forget it, let Jin Ming come over?"

The law enforcer in embroidered clothes beside him quickly responded: "Boss, Jin Ming's medical skills are quite good. I heard that he learned a few tricks from the Miaojiang guy some time ago, which should be enough to deal with the current situation."

The purple-robed envoy Yan Xin nodded slightly, but his expression remained serious, and said: "I hope so. This matter is of great importance and must not be taken lightly."

The law enforcer in embroidered clothes clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Boss. Everyone has seen Jin Ming's ability. I don't think he will make any mistakes."

After saying that, he ran out as fast as the wind.

At this time, Chu Ci had no idea that he was almost invited back by the Purple-Robed Envoy again.

Suddenly, a gentle voice of thanks came: "Thank you for saving me." Chu Ci was stunned and confused for a moment.

She blinked in confusion, frowning slightly, as if she had not yet understood this sudden thank you.

Turning to look at Jiang Li beside him, the other party did not react. Chu Ci then realized that the voice was transmitted directly into his mind.

Her body suddenly stiffened, her heart filled with shock and vigilance.

"Who are you?" Chu Ci asked again in her heart. She believed that if she had a sound at this moment, her voice would definitely be trembling.

Turning to look at Jiang Li beside him, the other party did not react. Chu Ci then realized that the voice was transmitted directly into his mind.

"Sister, don't be afraid. I am the book spirit of this world." The voice sounded again, with a soothing tone. Seeing that Chu Ci was still alert, he continued: "I have been trapped in Yang Zhigao's body for a long, long time. The torment is indescribable. Thanks to sister, I have a chance to escape."

"So, sister, you are Shushu's savior, and Shushu will not hurt his savior."

However, Chu Ci's focus was: "You were trapped in Yang Zhigao, the fake second prince? Isn't he the male protagonist?"

"No way!" Shu Ling's voice became anxious, with a bit of dissatisfaction, "How could he be the male lead? The real male lead is someone else. Sister, don't be fooled by appearances."

Chu Ci was so surprised that her mouth opened into an O shape, her eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief. This exaggerated expression also made Jiang Li beside her notice that something was wrong with her.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Li looked concerned, his brows slightly frowned, his eyes full of worry and confusion.

Chu Ci quickly put away his expression, took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and said: "I'm fine, you go wait outside the door, and when my husband comes back, ask him to come to the backyard immediately and tell him that I have good news to tell you."

Jiang Li responded without any hesitation, "Yes." Then he turned around and left in a hurry, not daring to delay for even a moment.

Chu Ci sent Jiang Li away and hurried back to the house.

She calmed her rapid breathing and asked the book spirit again: "If Yang Zhigao is not the male protagonist, then who is? Could it be Fan Jingrui or the prince?"

Her eyes were full of eagerness and curiosity, and she stared straight ahead, as if expecting the book spirit to give an answer immediately.

"Sister, do you want to go back to the original world?" Shu Ling did not answer Chu Ci's question, but suddenly asked this question.

There was a hint of mystery in its voice, as if there were many deeper meanings hidden behind this simple question.

Chu Ci was stunned by this sudden question and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

After a long while, Chu Ci slowly spoke: "Didn't I die in my previous life? If I go back, will I live like I am now, occupying someone else's identity?"

After she finished speaking, a hint of worry and uneasiness appeared in her eyes. I don't know if she was worried about the unknown future or for some other reason.

Shu Ling paused after hearing this, and then asked cautiously: "So sister, you want to stay? Then can I be your child?"

There was a hint of anticipation and longing in its voice, as if this request was of great importance to it.

Chu Ci paused after hearing this, his mind was filled with thoughts, and he blurted out, "If I don't agree, what will you do? Will you disappear?"

However, after these words came out, Chu Ci's face was full of complicated expressions, as if she herself was surprised by these sudden words.

Then Chu Ci got angry, "It's you, you are influencing me. And if I don't agree, what are you going to do?"

"Sister, Shushu doesn't want to die. If you don't agree, Shushu will have to wait to die. Sister, please save me! I will be very good." Shu Ling said in a crying voice, her voice full of pleading and fear, as if she was about to face a catastrophe in the next second.

Its tone was trembling and filled with deep helplessness, which made people feel pity for it.

However, Chu Ci had seen too many such situations since he traveled through time, so he was not easily moved at this moment. "Why, why did you disappear? Aren't you a book spirit?"

Shu Ling explained with a tearful voice: "Sister, you don't really think those idiots are capable of pulling you here, do you?"

"It was me who pulled you in, at the cost of disappearing." Its voice was full of grievance and helplessness, as if it was enduring great pain.

Chu Ci pursed his lips in anger, his chest heaving violently, "Should I thank you then?"

"Also, I want to know the reason, and if I agree, what will happen to the little bean sprout in my belly?" Her eyes were red and she glared at the front, her voice trembling slightly with anger.
