After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

There was no one behind to stop the Jinyiwei from searching.

Shen Jinyao didn't know what they were searching for, but it didn't look like a seizure.

Because they went directly into the Marquis's yard.

"Your Excellency, there is none in the Marquis's yard!"

"Your Excellency, there is no one in the old lady's yard!"

……

Another cup of tea passed and everyone's yard had been searched.

They all said they didn't find what they were looking for.

Pan Ye turned around and looked at everyone in the Shen family.

The old lady had a look of compassion on her face, and she looked up at something unknown.

Mrs. Shen's eyes were filled with tears as she stared at the people who were searching.

The eldest and third masters of the Shen family looked as if they couldn't understand what was going on.

Their wives and children also lowered their heads.

There was only one person who was a little strange. She had been watching all this since she arrived.

There was no sadness or fear in his eyes.

Pan Ye approached and asked frivolously, "What is this?"

"Replying to the Lord, this is Shen Jinyao from the Marquisate."

"So she's the eldest daughter of the Marquis' Mansion. I heard she just recovered from a serious illness, and I didn't expect her to become so bold."

Shen Jinyao retracted her gaze and said, "I was just looking to see what the adults were looking for."

Pan Ye asked back: "Guess?"

Shen Jinyao would definitely ignore him. Since this person couldn't communicate normally, she would just guess on her own.

"Go and search every room here. This will be a great help to the Ministry of Justice."

The official from the Ministry of Justice was angry but dared not say anything.

Early in the morning, he received an imperial edict asking him to assist the Jinyiwei in handling the case.

It was not until he arrived at the gate of the Shen Mansion that he realized that they were going to hold a wedding at the Marquis' Mansion.

How come I didn’t hear anything?

The Minister of Justice smiled apologetically at Madam Shen, indicating that he didn't know what had happened.

Only then did Old Madam Shen feel a little impatient.

"Excuse me, Commander Pan, what exactly are you looking for? Why don't you tell us and we'll help you find it?"

As soon as the old lady spoke, the rest of the people in the yard also began to protest.

"That's right. Even if it's the Imperial Guard, so what? They'll start searching without saying anything."

"Inhumane..."

……

The voices of dissatisfaction in the yard gradually grew louder, and Pan Ye drew his knife and put it on the neck of the man next to him.

The arguing began to stop because the person next to him was Shen Jinyao.

"I said quiet, the Jinyiwei never explain when handling cases. If they see us, it means there is a problem in your family."

These words were considered a great mercy to Pan Ye.

Shen Jinyao, who had a knife on her neck, did not cry or panic.

This man couldn't have killed her.

After all, his target was not her.

Pan Ye was also a little surprised that Shen Jinyao was so calm.

"Go search for me."

Pan Ye took the knife away. No one protested anymore in the yard, so he arranged for people to search.

This time, it took less than a cup of tea for the thousand households to come back and report.

Pan Ye looked at their empty hands and knew that they had found nothing.

"grown ups……"

The captain hesitated and did not explain the situation directly.

Pan Ye: "What's wrong? Tell me."

"Your Excellency, all the warehouses in the Marquis' Mansion are empty."

Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion was shocked after hearing this. How could this be possible?

Especially Mrs. Shen, she checked the things in the warehouse yesterday, it is impossible that there is nothing there, right?

"Your Excellency, the study is also empty."

"Your Excellency, the armory is also empty."

"Your Excellency, the kitchen is also empty."

……

Are they all empty?

How can it be!

Not only Mrs. Shen, but everyone in the Shen family was shocked.

Pan Ye was also a little surprised. Could it be that the Shen family of the Marquisate had received some important news?

He has sent people to guard here since yesterday, except for the people sent out by Old Lady Shen.

They are all people who came back from outside.

I heard that the eldest daughter of the Shen family also went to meet her fiancé, General Xiang Hongxuan.

Even if they got the news, how did they clear out all the things from the Marquis' Mansion in one night?

Looking at the servants in the Marquis' Mansion, there are at least several hundred of them.

In order to transport these things without telling hundreds of people, they had to avoid the eyes of the Jinyiwei.

This must be impossible.

Besides, if they really got the news, why wouldn’t the Marquis’ Mansion go and take a look?

Only I and the emperor know this news.

Then there is only one possibility.

The Shen family was robbed.

Pan Ye asked: "Is there really nothing left?"

"Sir, there really is nothing. All of them are empty houses."

Mrs. Shen couldn't help but retort, "How is that possible? I checked it before I handed over the key yesterday."

The Shen residence's steward also came out and said, "I can guarantee that everything from yesterday is still there."

Pan Ye said, "Maybe your house was robbed."

This thief is really good at stealing. He actually stole from a family that was about to be raided. This is equivalent to stealing from the emperor.

"What? We're being robbed? Sir, you have to help us take care of this."

The person who spoke was Concubine Yun from the second house. When she heard that the warehouse had been looted, she almost fainted.

Madam Shen said in a deep voice: "Shut up, it's not your turn to speak here."

Aunt Yun quickly shut her mouth. She had never seen such a scene before.

But when it comes to their family's money, this is not acceptable.

Not only Aunt Yun, but the eldest master also felt quite distressed.

"Commander Pan, you must help us find the thief today. There are many valuable calligraphy and paintings in the study."

In the yard, everyone started talking again.

Pan Ye was a little annoyed, wondering why the imperial edict had not arrived yet.

Looking at the woman next to him, this girl had the same expression from beginning to end.

It was as if what happened today had nothing to do with her.

It was eerily quiet.

"Miss Shen, do you want to know who stole your things?"

Faced with Pan Ye's question, Shen Jinyao still felt a little guilty.

After all, this was her first time stealing something.

Even if they used the space to take it, it was still their own property, and stealing is right at the moment.

But she still felt some guilt and shame.

But it didn't show on her face. Shen Jinyao looked back at Pan Ye.

"Isn't there Commander Pan to uphold justice?"

Pan Ye felt a little aggrieved. In the past, wherever the Jinyiwei went, people were scared out of their wits.

They don't care about personal feelings and don't care about what others think.

The minor ones are house searches, and the serious ones are arrests.

Anyone who obstructs will be dragged away or hacked to death.

When they arrived at the Shen family, no one burst into tears.

But it was a mess.

Everyone treated the Jinyiwei as the emperor and clamored for them to uphold justice.

Help them find their lost items.

Pan Ye’s face became darker and darker.

The people in the Marquis' Mansion seemed to have found an outlet to vent their anger, and one by one they demanded an explanation from the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Just as Pan Ye raised the knife to kill someone, there was a noise outside the door.

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

……

Everyone in the Marquis' Mansion thought that the imperial edict to rescue them had arrived.

After all, the Marquis is not here, so he must have gone to ask for permission.
