Marquis Changning then asked the other sons to leave, leaving only the eldest son behind, and asked:

"Did you find any useful information at the Dali Temple?"

The eldest son replied, "Father, not yet. The people in the second brother's courtyard have also been interrogated one by one, and those who served closely and knew about it have all been killed.

Those who were still alive were not close servants, so they knew nothing when asked, and nothing came out of my question.”

"The master is in trouble, but they know nothing. What use are they? They are just a bunch of trash. You can just deal with them quietly."

The eldest son replied: "Yes!"

We need to find a famous doctor to treat the Queen Mother. She cannot fall down now.

When the other young masters saw that their father had woken up and only left their eldest brother by his side, they almost died of jealousy.

The third son also resented his father for being too partial. Didn't the eldest son come out a few years earlier than them? Why was he so partial?

There was a legitimate prince before, and he accepted the position even though he had no chance of getting it.

After all, the prince's maternal family was prominent and could not be compared with his own maternal family. Moreover, since ancient times, the throne had always been inherited by the legitimate heir.

And now, the son of a foot-washing maid had taken the lead. How could he tolerate this?

It seems I have to talk to my aunt to see if my maternal family can lend a hand.

If the property is gone, it’s gone. But as long as you can sit in that position, what treasure can’t you get?

This is a challenge as well as an opportunity. It depends on how you handle it.

As for the Fifth Young Master, his mind was spinning non-stop.

This thief is so hateful. All his silver and treasures were stolen.

My in-laws were wealthy businessmen, but now their house is penniless and empty, and they are in urgent need of a large amount of money.

Right now, the only one who can come up with a large sum of money to solve this urgent problem is my maternal grandparents.

I have to talk it over with my aunt. I can't let my father trick me into giving me money for nothing to use for the whole family. I have to maximize the benefits.

As for the other young masters, they have a lot on their mind, but unfortunately they don’t have enough confidence.

They have no financial resources, no support, and are not at an advantage in terms of age.

No matter how many ideas you have, it's all in vain.

Of course, it doesn't matter. They use some tricks below to let those in front fight first.

Who knows what will happen in the future?

After all, the current official was still an unknown person before he came to power.

There are so many outstanding princes, who would have thought that the current emperor would be the one to take the throne in the end?

The one who survives till the end is the winner, the one who survives is the king!

Of course, they only dared to think about this in their hearts. At the same time, the official affairs also served as an example for them, which greatly increased their confidence and made them full of ambition.

Just prepare to do a big job. Now that the position is vacant, any son can take it.

No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, some of them are a bit cunning, but on the surface they still appear to be humble and respectful to each other.

Since the prince can die, why can't the eldest brother die?

The servants in the marquis's mansion were also completely confused. How could such a top-notch family become empty and the sky collapse in the blink of an eye?

Several servants died yesterday. I feel a bit sad and depressed. I always feel that a storm is coming and the building is about to collapse.

Where is their future? Confused and lost.

We have to pick our sides again. The days ahead will be tough!

When the families who had a feud with the Changning Marquis' Mansion heard the news in the morning, they were so happy that they wanted to set off a few strings of firecrackers to celebrate properly.

Of course, they were not afraid of the people in the Marquis' Mansion and celebrated in the way they liked.

Some people invited opera singers and storytellers to their homes, while others actually set off firecrackers and celebrated openly.

Some people burst into tears of joy after hearing this. This family finally got their retribution. God is watching over them.

With the emperor deliberately letting the situation go, the news that the Empress Dowager had suffered a stroke due to the affairs of her natal family spread to everyone in the capital in less than half a day.

Some felt sorry, some gloated over the misfortune, and some were guessing who the thief was?

Some people are also guessing what kind of deep hatred there is between the prince of Changning Marquis's Mansion and the thieves.

Why does this modus operandi sound so familiar? After thinking about it, I remembered the residence of the former Minister of War and the former Deputy Minister of Personnel.

People in the gambling house started placing bets, wondering if this was done by the same group of people.

Will the Marquis of Changning Mansion end up like the other two mansions? Is the emptying of the house just a precursor to its demise?

I even secretly wondered in my heart how long it would take to uproot the Marquis' Mansion if it was destroyed.

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor have been at odds for a long time. The Changning Marquisate, as the Empress Dowager's strongest backing, has now lost its power.

There is a saying that goes, "When you are ill, we will kill you." They don't believe that the government has not taken any action.

Isn't now the perfect time to kick the shit out of a guy?

Guess anything.

However, the people under the Changning Marquis' Mansion and the Queen Mother's faction were not so happy.

On the contrary, it is more serious and sadder than the death of one’s own mother.

Now that their biggest backer is gone, what is their future?

When I think of this, I feel so desperate.

Everyone tightened their skin again and again.

He even called together his unlearned children and emphasized:

"This is an emergency. Be careful when you go out. If something happens, no one can protect you, not even me. Remember this!"

Some families, thinking of their lawless sons and grandsons, simply locked them up at home and told them not to go out recently to avoid getting into trouble.

Of course, all the wealthy and powerful families have increased patrols and protection, for fear that they will become the second marquisate.

These thieves are so scary, and their methods are even more scary. They can empty out homes right under people's noses, and no one knows about it, making it hard to guard against them.

Patrols were also posted at night and the entire prefecture was on alert.

At the same time, many families began to pack up their valuables, planning to wait until the martial law ended.

Find a night and secretly move to other outer courtyards or other courtyards. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Whenever I think about the fact that the property I worked so hard to obtain was snatched away by thieves, I feel so desperate.

If I really lose it, how will I live? I must find a few more safe places to hide.

This thief is so hateful that he makes everyone feel insecure.

The officers and soldiers began to check every house in the city.

Such a large amount of wealth could not be transported out so quickly. It must be hidden somewhere in the city.

On the one hand, we need to find the huge amount of money, and on the other hand, we need to catch the thieves.

These soldiers are more active than anyone else in this matter.

The thought that they might find the wealth accumulated by the Changning Marquisate was enough, even if they could just put a small bag in their pockets when no one was paying attention.

It’s enough for you to eat delicious food and drink well and live a carefree life for the rest of your life.

As soon as they thought of this, everyone became as energetic as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Everyone was full of energy and not tired at all.
