Song Zhi just wanted to get away from the crime scene as quickly as possible, so he said perfunctorily, "Okay, I'll go back and think about it."

"real!"

When Mu Yuanzhi heard Song Zhisong say this for the first time, an expression of surprise appeared on his face.

"Hmm."

Song Zhi nodded randomly, "Then I'll go back first."

She quickly returned to the cell under the guidance of the jailer. As soon as she returned, Song Yang and Li Yan immediately surrounded her.

"Where did you go just now? They didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Song Zhi thought of the treasures in the space and said happily, "I went to the East Palace, and they didn't do anything to me."

Not only did nothing happen, she also took a lot of treasures and brought disaster to the State of Wei.

Song Zhi was satisfied.

Seeing her relaxed expression, Song Yang and Li Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's good."

They didn't know that the East Palace was in chaos at this moment because thieves appeared in the East Palace and stole almost half of the family's wealth.

Mu Yuanzhi placed all those priceless things in the main hall to show off, but they all disappeared.

The strangest thing is that the beauty couch that required the combined efforts of several people to lift disappeared without a sound. This requires someone with great martial arts skills and great strength to do.

If this wasn't the capital, Mu Yuanzhi would have suspected that it was a group of brute-force barbarians from the Wei State who came here to rob.

But even if they were a group of barbarians, there would be some noise when they stole things.

The fact is that so many things disappeared right under their noses, and none of them noticed.

Even Jiang Li, who had been in the main hall, didn't notice it.

Although he was behind the screen at the time, it couldn't be that he couldn't hear the loud noise of moving things.

His martial arts skills are quite good, and even the slightest footsteps cannot escape his ears.

He was sure that no one except Song Zhi had entered the main hall while he was there.

But as for Song Zhi, everyone in the East Palace saw Song Zhi leaving empty-handed, so no one suspected her.

Jiang Li frowned slightly. As smart as he was, he couldn't figure out what the problem was.

Because they really couldn't find the reason, people in the East Palace started to spread the rumor that the East Palace was unclean and haunted, and that things inside would disappear out of thin air for no reason. It was very scary.

The servants were in a panic and no one dared to close their eyes and sleep, for fear that they would be the next to disappear.

In the second half of the night, the entire East Palace was still in a state of anxiety.

Mu Yuanzhi and Jiang Li sat opposite each other.

"Master Jiang, what do you think?"

Jiang Li's expression was indifferent. "I never believe in supernatural things. If there is a mystery that cannot be solved, it only means that the person who provided the mystery is too smart."

Mu Yuanzhi rubbed his brows tiredly, "But we don't even know any information about the other party, so we have no idea where to start."

"Please have someone check and see if there are other places in the palace where this situation occurs."

Jiang Li moved his fingers, and immediately a servant brought up a box of gold, silver and jewelry.

"Does it look familiar?"

Mu Yuanzhi was startled. After picking up the items and checking them, he said, "These are the things that were lost from the East Palace warehouse! Where did Lord Jiang get them from?"

Those things were also engraved with the seal of the Eastern Palace.

At that time, the East Palace was robbed, and he had been secretly looking for these things, but he had no clues. Unexpectedly, a whole box of things appeared in front of him.

Jiang Li said calmly, "I confiscated them at the border of the Kingdom of Li. Royal belongings wouldn't be left lying around so cheaply. I found it strange, so I collected a box and brought it to you."

Mu Yuanzhi asked anxiously, "Can we find someone who can use them?"

"No."

Jiang Li said, "I didn't know how many hands these had passed through when I collected them. I can't even trace the person who originally leaked them."

Mu Yuanzhi didn't say anything else, his eyes were gloomy.

Jiang Li said, "I have to go to Wei State for something. I will leave some troops for you to command. I hope that next time I come to Tianqi, you will be in charge here."

Mu Yuanzhi was a little surprised, "Are you leaving right away?"

"Leave now."

Jiang Li's plain robe fluttered in the wind, and he looked indescribably otherworldly.

He had been looking for the little princess for too long and could not wait any longer.

He will hold on to even a glimmer of hope.

Mu Yuanzhi had no position to persuade him, so he could only watch Jiang Li walk away.

As soon as Jiang Li left, Mu Yuan received a summons from the emperor.

He knew that the emperor must have heard about his lost items, so he quickly put on his outer robe and hurried over.

A large group of palace servants were standing outside the Funing Palace. They were kneeling outside the door in a mess, obviously having just been scolded.

Mu Yuanzhi walked over and, as usual, wanted to show his understanding side in front of these people and comfort them, but he saw that the palace servants all moved away from him in fear, as if he were some kind of monster.

Mu Yuanzhi's expression froze for a moment. He looked at these people with confusion in his heart. Could it be that those weird and supernatural words were really so scary that everyone avoided them?

However, he didn't have time to figure out the thoughts of these little people. Seeing that these people were ignorant, he no longer wasted his time on them. He walked straight past them and entered the Funing Palace.

The emperor inside was still furious, "Useless! You are all a bunch of useless people. No one told me about such a big thing. Are you all going to rebel?"

A group of officials were kneeling in front of the large desk. They were all silent, with their heads buried deeply in the ground.

Mu Yuanzhi took a quick glance and was startled, "Father, this is..."

"Evil creature, kneel down before me!"

A piece of paper was thrown at his forehead, leaving a red mark on it instantly.

Mu Yuanzhi didn't know what was going on, but he knelt down without thinking, "Father, please calm down."

"Calm down! How can I calm down?"

The emperor threw a thick stack of letters on the table in front of Mu Yuanzhi and said, "Read it for yourself!"

Mu Yuanzhi didn't feel anything at first, but when his eyes fell on the two imperial edicts spread out on the ground, his brain suddenly buzzed and went blank in an instant.

His lips trembled constantly, and his fingers trembled as he picked up the things on the ground and turned them over one by one. The more he looked, the more frightened he became.

He looked up in astonishment and wanted to defend himself, but before he could make any sound, he saw several spies he had previously planted at the border being brought in by him.

At that moment, he seemed to have lost his soul and his face instantly lost all color.

When people are extremely angry, they really do laugh, just like the current emperor, who laughed slowly, "What a kind and gentle person you are, not fighting or competing. I always thought you were the most sensible among the brothers, but it turns out it was all a disguise. You are really good, you completely fooled me."
