Chapter 15 His Majesty is Furious

"What happened tonight must be kept secret between you two."

After everyone left, Ning Quan said to Hongxiu and the other two.

The two of them followed Ning Quan throughout the night. Although they didn't see anything with their own eyes, they could almost guess what happened just by listening to the conversation.

Therefore Ning Quan had to remind them.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. We will keep our mouth shut."

Hongxiu and the other two answered in unison.

"Well, that's good."

"Let's go back and rest."

Ning Quan smiled and nodded, then couldn't wait to pull the two girls to the backyard.

Hongxiu and Hongping had already guessed what would happen next. Their heartbeats suddenly quickened, and they felt shy but also a little expectant.

"This king is going to take you in tonight...are you two willing?"

Back in the room, Ning Quan stared at the two girls with lustful eyes.

"Your Highness..."

Hearing this, Hongxiu and Hongping lowered their heads shyly, not daring to look Ning Quan in the eye.

Seeing this, Ning Quan raised a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth and lowered his head to kiss the two girls' cherry lips.

"Well......"

The two girls had dazed eyes and responded with moans.

After a while, a soft moan was heard in the room, full of spring atmosphere.

A night of love...

.........

The next morning.

Ning Quan woke up and felt relaxed all over.

He glanced at the two girls, Hongxiu, who were still sleeping beside him, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

Last night’s madness was so wonderful that it was hard to describe. The feeling of being with the two of them was so great that he couldn’t stop!

Thinking of this, Ning Quan couldn't help but lower his head again and gently kissed her red sleeves and red lips.

"Your Highness..."

Hongxiu and the other two were awakened by his kiss and immediately opened their eyes wide.

Seeing Ning Quan's fiery gaze, Hongxiu called out shyly.

"Did you sleep well last night?"

Ning Quan gently touched the two girls' heads and said with a smile.

"Your Highness..."

Upon hearing this, Hongxiu and the other girl shyly buried their heads in Ning Quan's arms.

Everything that happened last night is still fresh in the minds of the two girls.

Looking at the two girls' tender and tempting red lips, Ning Quan couldn't help but get on the horse again.

Unfortunately, it was already three o'clock in the morning, and Ning Quan had to give up.

"Haha, get up quickly."

Ning Quan smiled and pinched the two girls' cheeks.

"Yes."

Hongxiu and the other girl blushed and quickly got up to help Ning Quan get dressed and wash.

After washing up, Ning Quan came to the front yard.

Ning Quan prepared to have breakfast, then go to see his elder brother-in-law, and then go to the prime minister's residence.

"Your Highness, something terrible has happened!"

As a result, before he had taken a few bites of the meal, he saw the housekeeper Liu Mou running over in a hurry, his face full of panic.

"What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

Ning Quan asked with a frown.

"Your Highness, something terrible has happened! A thief appeared in the capital last night and stole millions of taels of silver from the Ministry of Revenue and a large amount of weapons and armor from the Ministry of Works."

"More than a dozen banks were also robbed. The losses were devastating."

Liu Mou hurriedly reported.

"Oh, such a big thing happened?"

Hearing this, Ning Quan pretended to be shocked.

"It's absolutely true, Your Highness. The entire capital is in chaos right now." Liu Mou said repeatedly.

"Oh, I see. You can go down."

Ning Quan nodded lightly and signaled Liu Mou to leave.

"Your Highness, it seems that the capital will not be peaceful in the next few days."

After Liu Mou left, Zhuge Liang said to Ning Quan with a smile.

"What the Prime Minister said is true, but what does this have to do with us?"

Ning Quan said with a smile.

"Haha, Your Highness is right."

Zhuge Liang laughed.

"Oh, I'll go find my brother-in-law later to see if the weapons and armor are ready."

"Prime Minister, please contact the carriage company to discuss the transportation of supplies."

"Wenyuan, you and Butler Liu go to the Ya market. Let Liu buy the servants, and you buy the craftsmen. No matter the price, as long as they have skills, buy them."

"The construction of Beiting requires craftsmen, the more the better."

"Bo Ning, you and Hong Xiu Hong Ping go to the market and see if there's anything missing from the mansion. So hurry up and get it all back."

"Bowen, go buy some seeds..."

Ning Quan gave instructions and asked everyone to do it immediately.

"Yes, I will take your orders."

Zhuge Liang and others left after receiving the order

Ning Quan also took Lu Bu and Zhang Fei to the Ministry of War.

.......

At the same time, inside the palace.

Upon learning that the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Revenue had been robbed, His Majesty was furious and summoned all the civil and military officials on the spot.

"Father, I believe this matter must be thoroughly investigated."

Prince Ning Gao said with a gloomy expression.

"Nonsense, of course we have to investigate thoroughly. The question is how. Do you have any clues?"

Ning Yuanwu said angrily.

"Your Majesty, I don't have any clues at the moment."

"But this is indeed a strange thing. I really can't imagine how the bandits could have stolen so much silver and weapons so quietly."

"What puzzles me even more is that it would be fine if the bandits stole silver, but why did they steal weapons and armor?"

Ning Gao continued.

Hearing this, all the ministers present looked thoughtful.

This matter is indeed unbelievable. The key is that a large number of weapons and armor were stolen, which is no small matter.

"Father, I have something to report."

At this time, the third prince Ning Jun stood up and said.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"Father, I have received news that Li Taiheng, the Minister of War, is arranging a batch of weapons and armor for my ninth brother."

"Ok?"

"Prime Minister Li, is this true?"

After hearing this, Ning Yuanwu looked at Li Junchen and said.

"Your Majesty, this is indeed the case!"

Li Junchen said calmly.

"Huh? Is this true?"

"What does Lao Jiu need weapons and armor for? And why would Li Taiheng help?"

Ning Yuanwu continued to ask.

"Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince requested these weapons and armor to be taken to Beiting."

"As for why I'm helping...it's simple. His Highness the Ninth Prince is now my son-in-law, so of course I have to help. I've already reported this to the Ministry of War."

Prime Minister Li said calmly.

"Haha, you are quite frank."

"That's right... This is how you were back then. You're efficient and effective. I like that about you."

Ning Yuanwu was not angry but happy.

It is normal for Ning Quan to need weapons and armor when he goes to Beiting. It is also normal for Li Taiheng to help as Ning Quan's brother-in-law. These are not a problem.

"Father, I have something else to report."

"I heard that my ninth brother also went to the Ministry of Revenue's warehouse yesterday."

"And someone saw my ninth brother near the Ministry of Industry last night."

Ning Jun reported again.

"Huh? According to you, it was Lao Jiu who did this?"

Hearing this, Ning Yuanwu asked coldly.

"Father, I believe this incident is definitely related to my ninth brother, otherwise it wouldn't be such a coincidence."

Ning Jun said solemnly.

"Oh... I see, you think so?"

"Well, Third Brother, I have a question for you."

Ning Yuanwu asked.

"Father, please speak. I will tell you everything I know."
