The princess has super powers and space, so what's wrong with being a little arrogant?

After following for a distance, Mu Xiyue stepped forward and stopped the two little beggars.

The little boy was very perceptive. Seeing that Mu Xiyue and Xiao Yibai were dressed luxuriously and were followed by several people, he immediately smiled in a fawning manner.

"Sister Noble, do you need me for anything? If you need any errands, leave them to me. I know every alley in the city very well."

Mu Xiyue half-knelt and asked, "Is this your sister?"

The boy was nervous for a moment, not knowing what the noble man in front of him wanted to do.

"Yes, she is my sister. My sister is too young and can't do anything yet."

Mu Xiyue smiled gently, "Come with me, can we talk somewhere with fewer people?"

The boy thought about it and thought, there are several adults here. If something bad happens, he and his sister will not be able to resist. So he obediently followed Mu Xiyue to an empty alley.

Mu Xiyue asked: "What are your names and how old are you?"

The boy answered seriously, "My name is Douzi, I am nine years old, and my sister Xiaomei is five years old."

Mu Xiyue nodded. It looked like the head had not grown due to malnutrition.

"Do you know the Rest and Relax Teahouse on Nan'an Street?"

The boy nodded. "I know. It was open this morning, but closed after lunch. I heard from passersby in front of the teahouse that they were renovating something, so they won't be open for a while."

Mu Xiyue glanced at Xiao Yibai who was standing behind her. Is he moving so fast?

Xiao Yibai curled the corners of his lips and nodded at her.

Mu Xiyue lowered her head and said to the little boy, "Do you want to work in that teahouse? They'll provide food and accommodation, and pay you money. However, since you're young, your monthly pay will be less than that of adults. If you do a good job, you'll get extra rewards."

The boy's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this. "Sir, can I take my sister to live with me? I can eat less and share my food with my sister. My sister is too young, and I can't leave her alone in the dilapidated temple."

"Okay, then, let me ask someone to take you to your accommodation. I'll come over tomorrow and tell you what to do. If you don't want to do it after listening to it, you can leave."

The boy took his sister and bowed to Mu Xiyue, "Thank you, my dear!"

The two little beggars were taken back to the house in the west of the city by Xiao Yibai's men. Xiao Yibai asked Mu Xiyue if she wanted to find a few more beggars.

"No need. This little bean seems to have good character, but we still need to wait and see. If he is sure that his character is good, we can ask him to find a beggar he thinks is suitable."

Xiao Yibai didn't understand why Mu Xiyue wanted to find a beggar. There were many slaves in the human bank. If there were not enough people, he could just buy a few more.

On the return carriage, Mu Xiyue explained to him, "Beggars who make a good living are usually thick-skinned and good at talking, so they can get more food. Artists also need to be thick-skinned. If people stand on the stage and see the audience, they will feel embarrassed before they even start performing. How can they perform then, right?"

Also, beggars don’t use silver to buy things, so why not save money if you can?

It was already evening when Mu Xiyue returned to the Marquis' Mansion. Thinking that Mu Fengnian had poisoned her and had not yet taught him a lesson, she decided to take action tonight.

Chun Ya made dinner. Mu Xiyue took the opportunity to tell Xiao Tao about her plan while Chun Ya was in the kitchen.

"When the action starts, you keep watch for me."

When Xiaotao heard that something was finally going to happen, she was so happy that she couldn't sleep at all and got up before midnight.

Before Mu Xiyue left, she stuffed a sleeping pill into Chun Ya's mouth. She had asked Ji Yun for the sleeping pill a few days ago. This kind of sleeping pill melts in the mouth, and one pill can keep the person awake for two hours.

The first place they went to was the storehouse. The two guards at the door were dozing off. Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao walked over with light steps.

Although the guard was dozing off, he reacted quickly. Before the two of them could stand up, Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao rushed over and knocked them unconscious.

Mu Xiyue took out a pair of hydraulic pliers from the space. She had bought this tool from a hardware store in the first year of the apocalypse in her previous life. This kind of ancient lock was not difficult to break, so she simply and roughly clamped the padlock off.

Xiaotao stayed outside while Mu Xiyue walked into the warehouse and closed the door.

There was a solar flashlight in the space. She took it out and shone it on the entire warehouse. There weren't many things in the warehouse, just a box of cash, and about a dozen boxes of valuables such as jewelry and ornaments. There was also a small wooden box full of banknotes. Mu Xiyue didn't look at the total amount. Anyway, she didn't leave any space for all the income she could see.

Mu Xiyue was a little disappointed when she came out of the warehouse. Such a big mansion had only so few things. No wonder the guards were so lax.

However, she also had to go to the small warehouse in Liu Meir's courtyard. In order to prevent the two guards from waking up and ruining her plans, she also fed the two guards with sleeping pills so that they would be unconscious until dawn.

Mu Fengnian stayed at his concubine's house today, and the nanny and maid who were on night watch in Liu Meir's courtyard were also dozing off in a daze.

Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao did not disturb them and went straight to the small warehouse.

Liu Mei'er has her own small storehouse in her courtyard. This was heard from Chun Ya. Chun Ya said that even the concubines in the mansion had their own small storehouses in their courtyards. The dowries of the lady and the concubines were all kept in the small storehouses in their respective courtyards.

Mu Xiyue violently broke the padlock as usual, but she didn't expect that Liu Mei'er's small storeroom contained more things than the storeroom in the Marquis' Mansion. She didn't linger for long, and after collecting all the things, she and Xiao Tao quickly left.

After leaving Liu Meir's Yaxin Courtyard, Mu Xiyue walked towards Mu Fengnian's study. Today, both of their storehouses had been emptied, and the security of the Marquis' Mansion would definitely be strengthened. She wanted to go to Mu Fengnian's study to see if there was anything illegal or disorderly, which might be useful in the future.

As soon as the two entered Mu Fengnian's yard, a shout came, "Who?"

Are Mu Fengnian’s secret guards so damn sensitive?

The two of them held their breath in tacit understanding.

It was a cloudy day, with no moon or stars in the sky, and the courtyard was completely dark. Mu Xiyue listened intently to the movements of the secret guards.

The secret guard thought he was wrong, but to ensure safety he jumped down from the tree and walked towards the gate.

As soon as the secret guard moved, Mu Xiyue found the opportunity and used her wind ability to blow the person out of the yard.

The secret guard was shocked and was knocked unconscious by Mu Xiyue before he could say anything. Mu Xiyue also stuffed him with a sleeping pill.

Although this process was brief, it still made some noise. Mu Xiyue and Xiaotao used the noise to identify their positions and knocked out three more people. Fortunately, Mu Fengnian was not in the courtyard tonight, and there were only four secret guards guarding the Wenqi Courtyard.

Mu Xiyue had been to Mu Fengnian's study several times. She groped her way to the study like she was familiar with it. After breaking the lock, she searched the study with a flashlight.

The documents on the desk looked normal. In the desk drawer, there were five hundred taels of silver notes and some small change, but nothing else useful.

Just when Mu Xiyue was regretting that she had nothing useful, she caught a glimpse of a set of books on the bookshelf and found that one of the books looked a little strange. She walked forward and pulled out the strange book, but she didn't expect that there was a hemispherical object the size of an egg embedded in the inner wall of the bookshelf behind the book.
