You confiscated my property, I exiled you, why are you crying when the treasury is empty?

Su Wanning obediently closed her eyes and felt Zhan Beiwang holding her in his arms.

Her heartbeat kept accelerating as her body left the ground and flew through the air.

The wind blew across her cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness, but also making her feel a little scared.

She wanted to open her eyes, but was afraid of seeing the height below, so she could only hold tightly onto Zhan Beiwang who was holding her.

Her face was pressed tightly against Zhan Beiwang's chest.

I could feel his muscles through his clothes.

I rubbed it carefully and didn't even feel when it fell to the ground.

Zhan Beiwang coughed lightly.

"Aning, business is more important."

Su Wanning finally reacted and moved her face away from Zhan Beiwang's chest.

He hummed awkwardly.

Open the window a little and reach in.

Put away all the things in the room at once.

Came to another place.

This should be the storehouse in the mansion.

There were no windows, and there were a few extra guards at the door.

She had originally planned to find an opportunity when the shift changed, but Zhan Beiwang directly pulled her in front of a few people.

With a few knife strikes, several guards fell down.

Kick the locked door open.

"Aning, collect."

Su Wanning liked it even more as she watched Zhan Beiwang's actions.

When the two men were leaving, the servant of the mansion came to the yard of the warehouse with a stick.

"We need to speed things up."

Zhan Beiwang glanced behind him and nodded slightly in agreement.

"Then Aning, hold on tight."

Su Wanning reached out and hugged Zhan Beiwang's waist.

She buried her whole face in his chest.

Take a deep breath, and smell the cool fragrance of a man.

Zhan Beiwang felt her movements and his throat rolled a few times.

He quickly calmed down and let Su Wanning wreak havoc in his arms.

After collecting food from five families, Su Wanning's stomach was already growling with hunger.

"How many more?"

Zhan Beiwang took Su Wanning to an empty alley and took off his invisible cloak.

"eat first."

Su Wanning quickly took off her invisibility cloak and threw it into space.

Zhan Beiwang looked at Su Wanning, whose eyes lit up when she heard about the meal, and smiled dotingly.

He took Su Wanning out of the alley and after a few steps they arrived at the largest restaurant in the capital.

"Have you heard? The Zhan Palace held a wedding yesterday, but the bride was replaced by a concubine from the countryside by the Su Palace."

"Everyone knows about this. It's spread all over the capital."

"Who would have thought that our invincible Prince Zhan would end up marrying a concubine as his Princess Zhan."

"........."

As soon as the two of them reached the door, they heard the discussion inside.

Zhan Beiwang took Su Wanning's hand and said, "Aning, why don't we go back home and eat."

Su Wanning looked at Zhan Beiwang with a smile.

"We're already here, why should we go back to eat?"

Thinking about the words she heard when she entered the room just now, Zhan Beiwang must be afraid that she would be sad because of those words.

"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile."

After all, when she was a nurse, she had heard words that were much more lethal than this.

Zhan Bei looked at Su Wanning's back and wondered what his girl had experienced over the years.

Su Wanning had already sat down and waved to Zhan Beiwang who was still standing at the door.

Zhan Beiwang walked over with a gentle smile.

If someone knew Zhan Beiwang, they would definitely think that he was possessed by a ghost when they saw him at this moment.

"I don't know what you like to eat, so I just ordered a few dishes that I like."

Zhan Beiwang sat next to Su Wanning.

"I like anything you order."

Su Wanning asked the waiter beside her to order a few more dishes.

He stretched out his hand towards Zhan Beiwang.

Zhan Beiwang put his hand directly on hers.

Su Wanning smiled lightly and waved away Zhan Beiwang's hand.

"Money bag."

There was a hint of displeasure on Zhan Beiwang's face, but his hands did not stop moving. He took off the purse from his waist and handed it to her.

Su Wanning took out a few taels of silver and put it in the hands of the mistress.

Whisper a few words to the waiter.

"Okay, girl, just wait and see."

After the waiter left, Zhan Beiwang looked at Su Wanning.

"Aning, what did you just say?"

Su Wanning leaned over and looked closer at Zhan Beiwang.

"You want to know? Kiss me and I'll tell you."

After saying that, Su Wanning looked at Zhan Beiwang with a hint of provocation.

Unexpectedly, Zhan Beiwang quickly stretched out his arms and covered the two of them with his wide sleeves.

He pecked Su Wanning lightly on the lips.

Su Wanning's cheeks flushed when she realized what was happening. "Wait a minute, you'll know."

Zhan Beiwang chuckled triumphantly and looked at Su Wanning, who was too shy to look at him.

"Okay, I'll listen to Aning."

Soon, a storyteller with gray hair walked up to the raised platform on the side of the restaurant.

The storyteller slammed the ruler on the table.

"Today we are talking about the heroic deeds of the invincible Prince Zhan."

The audience cheered, and Su Wanning also listened with interest, supporting her chin.

"It's said that back then, the Xiongnu invaded from the north. Prince Zhan led his army and defeated the Xiongnu with a smaller force, leaving them completely defeated!"

"Lingnan was repeatedly invaded by bandits. Food and fodder were scarce and the treasury was empty. Prince Zhan even spent all his wealth to pay the troops. This is how we were able to preserve our territory!"

Zhan Beiwang frowned slightly. It was true, but the storyteller was too exaggerated and he always felt a little uncomfortable.

However, Su Wanning listened with great interest, her eyes flashing with admiration for Zhan Beiwang.

The waiter brought the steaming hot meal.

"The food is ready, please enjoy your meal, sir."

Su Wanning enjoyed the meal with gusto.

As I walked out the door, I happened to see a few little beggars on the side of the road.

Su Wanning walked over and took out a few taels of silver.

In less than half a day, news of Zhan Beiwang's great achievements spread to every street and alley in the capital.

During this time, Su Wanning and the other person returned to Prince Zhan's Mansion.

Zhan Beiwang said that he needed to make some preparations before going to the palace.

Until they arrived at the emperor's private treasury, which was heavily guarded inside the palace.

Only after a row of guards fell did Su Wanning realize what Zhan Beiwang had prepared when he returned to the mansion.

The imperial granary was the private storehouse of the empress and especially the imperial concubines.

They were all collected cleanly.

After collecting all these, Su Wanning considered the national treasury.

But there was a trace of concern in his heart. After all, the national treasury was the source of local taxes. If the national treasury was collected, the people's taxes might increase.

"Will the treasury accept it?"

Su Wanning gave the decision-making power to Zhan Beiwang.

"receive!"

"I heard that the national treasury is made up of taxes from all over the country."

Zhan Beiwang looked at the hesitant Su Wanning.

“Indeed, but when the army ran low on food and fodder, the emperor withheld pay, citing an empty treasury as an excuse.

At that time, the emperor even promised the world that there would be no tax increase within five years. If he suddenly increased taxes, he would inevitably be criticized by the people of the world.

The national treasury is more like another private treasury of the emperor than a national treasury, and not a single cent of the things in it are used for the people.

If the emperor's private treasury is robbed, he will definitely use the national treasury to fill the gap. If he doesn't take it, will he keep it for him?"

As they were talking, the two of them had already arrived at the door of the treasury.

There are only a few people guarding the gate. Could it be that the national treasury is empty as the emperor said?
