Chapter 47 Night Visit to the General's Mansion

Murong Zixi returned to the general's mansion and walked all the way to Ziwei Pavilion. Xiaolu followed behind her with a slightly resentful look on her face.

"Miss, just compensate them with this silver. I don't know how much silver they have taken from the shop over the years." Xiaolu complained in a low voice, her tone full of resentment and unwillingness.

Murong Zixi had already entered the room and was lying casually on the small couch with her eyes slightly closed, as if she had not heard Xiaolu's words.

Xiaolu stood there, looking at Murong Zixi's nonchalant expression, she was even more angry in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it, so she could only continue to say: "Miss, aren't you angry at all? They all took advantage of us!"

Murong Zixi still closed her eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, with a barely perceptible smile, she said softly: "What is there to be angry about? Getting angry makes you old easily, such a small matter is not worth getting angry about."

Xiao Cui at the side also agreed with a smile: "That's right, Xiao's face today is even darker than the bottom of a pot! If anyone is angry, it should be Xiao and the master who are angry."

"I also feel that the young lady is at a disadvantage."

Murong Zixi chuckled. Was she at a disadvantage? Not at all. She waved her hand to let the two of them leave. She thought to herself, "Let's go and have a good look around the General's Mansion tonight. Let's get some sleep first."

As night fell, the entire general's mansion fell into silence.

Murong Zixi slowly got up, put on her clothes, opened the door and prepared to go out.

Just then, Xiaolu came over and raised his hand to knock on the door but suddenly froze.

"Miss, you are awake. I am just about to call you for dinner!"

Murong Zixi nodded to show that she understood.

She walked slowly towards the side room, where Xiao Cui had already prepared dinner.

Nanny Li stood aside. After seeing Murong Zixi sit down, she spoke, "Miss, the old man who used to look after the shop has returned to the Loyalty Marquis' Mansion. This afternoon, I went back to the Loyalty Marquis' Mansion and told the old lady about the matter. The old lady immediately sent someone back to the shop to look after it again."

After hearing this, Murong Zixi frowned slightly and asked, "Grandmother, do you blame me for letting Qin and the others manage my mother's dowry shop?"

Nanny Li smiled and consoled her, "It was you, Miss, who had been asking the people from the Loyalty Marquis' Mansion to look after the shop. Now that Miss is no longer fooled by them, the old lady and the others are so happy that they can't wait to blame Miss."

Murong Zixi then breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to show that she was relieved.

She asked again, "Grandma, how are you?" There was a hint of concern and worry in her tone.

Matron Li smiled and replied, "The old lady is in good health, Miss, don't worry. She is just thinking about you."

Murong Zixi nodded slightly. She decided to visit her grandmother again in a few days so that she could spend more time with her.

After dinner, Murong Zixi washed up and returned to her room.

She did not go to bed early as usual, but lay on the bed with her eyes closed to rest.

Seeing this, Nanny Li couldn't help but frown and asked in confusion, "Didn't you say that the young lady slept all afternoon? Why did she go back to her room so early?"

Xiao Cui and Xiao Lu looked at each other and shook their heads, indicating that they didn't understand either.

Murong Zixi called out softly, "Xiaobai."

Xiaobai immediately jumped onto the bed and nudged her arm with its little head.

Murong Zixi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mysterious smile. She whispered to Xiaobai, "We are going to visit the general's mansion tonight."

Xiaobai seemed to understand what she meant, and his eyes lit up. The owner was ready to do something! Xiaobai was so excited that his tail was wagging, and he couldn't wait to start the action.

Murong Zixi couldn't help laughing when she saw Xiaobai's excitement.

She gently stroked Xiaobai's head and comforted him, "Don't be anxious, wait until dark." Then she closed her eyes, rested her mind, and waited until late at night before taking action.

In the middle of the night, Murong Zixi and Xiaobai quietly left the room.

They shuttled through the shadows of the general's mansion, as silent as two ghosts.

Murong Zixi first came to the storehouse of the general's mansion. She hid in the dark and observed the surrounding environment with sharp eyes.

When she saw the guard in the warehouse, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a sly smile.

Then, she took out a handful of sleeping pills from the space and scattered them at the guards.

After a while, the guards in the warehouse fell to the ground in a daze and fell into a deep sleep.

Murong Zixi looked at the scene in front of her, then walked out.

She came to the warehouse door and her eyes fell on the heavy lock.

Without hesitation, she pulled out the hairpin from her head, gently inserted it into the keyhole, and began to fiddle with it.

As she moved, the lock made a slight sound, but soon, with a "click", Murong Zixi successfully opened the door lock.

She gently pushed open the door and walked into the warehouse.

The man and the puppy walked around the warehouse. Murong Zixi carefully observed each item, looking for something valuable.

The puppy ran around excitedly, sniffing various smells curiously.

Suddenly, the puppy stopped and asked in confusion: "Master, the general's treasury is not that rich." There was a hint of disappointment in its tone.

Murong Zixi looked at the General's Mansion in front of her and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "The General's Mansion was already in a state of decline when the original owner's mother married in. That scumbag father hasn't made any contributions in these years. It's already good enough to be able to maintain the surface of the General's Mansion!"

"Master, your body's scumbag father wrote you an IOU during the day. Are you planning to empty the warehouse now? Do you want to make everyone in the general's mansion starve?"

Murong Zixi smiled slightly, a sly look flashed in her eyes, and said, "Over the years, Xiao and the old woman have taken a lot of money from the original owner. I'm sure they will feel very distressed to use the money to supplement the general's mansion after the storehouse is empty!"

After saying that, she controlled her mind, waved her sleeves lightly, and collected all the items in the warehouse into the space.

In the blink of an eye, the warehouse became empty, leaving only the cold walls.

Murong Zixi looked at this scene, smiled with satisfaction, then turned and walked out of the warehouse.

Murong Zixi avoided the patrolling guards all the way and came to the Snow Garden again.

At this time, Murong Baixue and Xiao were talking.

"Mom, how come that bitch Murong Zixi suddenly became so powerful? She actually dared to take back the shop and drove away the people you have worked so hard to train over the years! What's more, she even asked father to write an IOU. Isn't this going to cut off our source of income?" Murong Baixue said anxiously.

Xiao comforted her, "Don't worry, Xue'er. Although you lost those shops, mother has saved a lot of money over the years."
