A dream ends life

At the same time, the eldest princess and her armored troops surrounded the Shi family.

The armored troops were like entering an empty space wherever they went, and everyone in the Shi family mansion was driven to the front yard.

The master, servants, men and women filled the front yard.

The guards who wanted to resist were subdued by the armored army. Some of them were covered in blood, and everyone was so scared that they dared not make a sound.

The suppressed sobbing of women could be heard continuously. The beautiful ladies dressed in gorgeous clothes cried so pitifully!

The armored troops carried boxes of treasures out of the mansion and loaded them onto the carriages that had been waiting there for a long time, filling more than a hundred carriages.

On the main street of Shangjing City, horse-drawn carriages went back and forth to the Shi family, and they gradually stopped until dark.

Yu Cai, who was beside the Grand Princess, was walking around in the empty Shi family courtyard with her guards.

"Princess, as you expected, there are secret rooms in every study of the Shi family, and three were found in the study of the head of the Shi family. They are full of gold, silver and valuables."

The eldest princess nodded in satisfaction and said, "Tell your men to search carefully. Search the study, bedroom, compartments, and under the bed."

Yu Cai took the order and left. She had to supervise it personally. The things taken away during the day looked like a lot, but in fact the things inside were mixed. There were large ornaments, wooden screens, and everything else. She had to share them equally with the Queen Mother and Princess Changle. How could they compare to these good things worth real gold and silver?

These are their private jobs, so naturally she has to pay more attention to them.

The eldest princess fiddled with the land deed in her hand, and sighed in her heart, the Shi family is indeed rich enough to rival a country! No wonder Changle and Wu Peiyi were so happy to reach a cooperation with her.

……

When Shi Yuyan learned that the Shi family was raided, she rushed out of the Taifu Mansion and ran among the Shi family's in-laws.

But those relatives who were tied together by interests would never disobey the order for the Shi family. Shi Yuyan couldn't even get in the door.

"It's not like this. It shouldn't be like this. Why is it like this?" Shi Yuyan couldn't understand why this happened.

Everything was clearly going according to her plan, and she entered the Grand Tutor's Mansion as she wished; she could clearly use Yu Luohan's influence to get the Shi family out of jail immediately.

What the hell is going on? It shouldn’t be like this.

He ran to Yu Luohan's study in a panic and pushed the door open forcefully.

Yu Luohan saw Shi Yuyan looking disheveled, one of her shoes seemed to have fallen off, her clothes were soaked with sweat, and her hair was a little messy.

"Master Taifu, what's going on? What on earth is going on!" Shi Yuyan asked Yu Luohan loudly with a trembling voice.

Yu Luohan lowered his eyes. If he had known this would happen, he would have not done it in the first place.

If the Shi family had agreed readily when they were approached that day, why would they have brought about such a catastrophic disaster?

It’s all because the Shi family is too greedy and too confident. So what if they are the head of the Capital Chamber of Commerce? They have to show off in front of the court. How can they not pay the price?

"Sir, please save the Shi family and my grandfather and others." Shi Yuyan knelt devoutly at Yu Luohan's feet and raised her hand to hold the corner of his clothes.

Yu Luohan looked at Shi Yuyan's pitiful pale face and sighed, "It's too late."

It was difficult to deal with just one Grand Princess, and with Princess Changle and Wu Peiyi getting involved, it was inevitable that the Shi family would go bankrupt.

Shi Yuyan's face turned even paler. "My grandfather and the others..."

Yu Luohan patiently explained, "You should know why the Shi family was imprisoned, but today the Censorate impeached several court officials, all of which were related to the Shi family. They also produced evidence of the Shi family's crimes over the past decade. The evil deeds done by the Shi family are obvious, and beheading them is not enough to appease the public anger."

Shi Yuyan slumped to the ground, mumbling in a daze: "How could this happen?"

……

"Of course she's poor! Wu Peiyi tasted the sweetness of raiding General Zhao's mansion. A small Shi family actually dared to offend her. The effect of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys was achieved, and it also enriched her own purse. Why wouldn't she do it!"

The fat girl crossed her legs and helped Chunshui solve the problem.

Chun Shui nodded thoughtfully, "I see!"

"But what's going on with Princess Changle? Why would she get involved in this mess?"

The fat girl choked. She actually didn’t know much. Chunshui, why do you have so many questions?

Dongliu touched his nose and glanced at Su Ci, who had hidden his achievements and fame.

It's all because of their master's ability to calculate people's hearts. Princess Changle is the real murderer who killed Prince Wu. The Shi family actually helped Xu Zhinian and his son, which violated her taboo. She found the scapegoat, so how could she let the Shi family ruin her plans?

She was just adding insult to injury and did not take any action against the Shi family. She did not feel that she had done anything wrong. In the eyes of outsiders, it was just her, the Grand Princess, and the Queen Mother who wanted to divide up the Shi family, which would not arouse anyone's suspicion at all.

Dong Liu whispered to Su Ci, "Madam, Shi Yuyan wants to see you, do you want to meet her?"

Su Ci raised her eyebrows. Shi Yuyan only then realized that she was a little late.

"not see."

He's just a stray dog. Why should she waste her time on someone who doesn't matter?

Dongliu understood what was going on after hearing her answer and stopped mentioning the Shi family.

Fatty and Chunshui had talked enough gossip and looked at Su Ci with their eyes rolling.

He came close to her and whispered, "Anyway, what you want is to make life difficult for the one in the palace, so why don't I poison her and kill her."

Su Ci looked up at her with an unclear look in his eyes: "What you said makes sense. Well, thank you for your hard work. Remember to use the most toxic poison, preferably the kind that makes her bleed from all seven orifices and die a miserable death."

Fat girl...

He was really rude to her, but she just said that. The Queen Mother was poisoned to death, the court of Dongyong must be in an uproar!

"You're not trying to cheer me up, are you? I think you look a little cowardly." Su Ci said to her indifferently.

The fat girl stared at her, her tone rising, "No way, how could I be a coward? What a joke! I'll just go into the palace for a walk tonight."

Su Ci understood. During the last palace banquet, Mei disappeared for half an hour after being shot with an injection. Now she was clamoring to enter the palace to poison people. She was just looking for an excuse to enter the palace.

Not only can he ask her to spend money to support her, but he can also achieve his own goal. The fat girl is quite cunning!

"Tell me what you want in the palace and I will help you!" Su Ci said.

The fat girl paused. She didn’t seem to say anything. How did Su Ci know?

“Uh! This…that…” I’m so conflicted as to whether to say it or not.

Mei Yizhen was very conflicted. It shouldn't matter that Su Ci knew the master's secret. She didn't know the master, and they might not meet in this life. So she let it go.

Thinking of this, she felt much more at ease.

He looked around and whispered in Su Ci's ear.

Su Ci visibly widened his eyes and looked at the fat girl in disbelief.

"Also, can it still be like this?"

The fat girl spread her hands. She was helpless too.
