Chapter 238 Drilling into the Dog Hole
When they came out again, each of them lit a few fires. Jing Yi looked at the blazing flames for a long time and was unwilling to leave, feeling a little painful.
Jing Chunxi could even feel the body that was carrying her up. It was not as calm and composed as when it came down, but was actually trembling slightly.
Humans are not plants or trees and are heartless. If these gold, silver, treasures, food and weapons could be used for the common people or transported to the army, how many lives could be saved and how many Tartars could be defeated!
Even though only a portion of the silver and weapons were burned, Jing Chunxi still felt it was a pity, as these were the people's hard-earned money, but she was powerless to do anything about it.
The weapons might be gone after being burned, but the silver can be recast. If she didn't want to leave evidence, she wouldn't want to let the damn emperor get it for free.
Returning to the place where he had climbed over the wall, Jing Yi pointed in the direction of the dog hole and said, "I'm going to put the letter and account books back. If you don't want to be discovered, you'd better get out quickly."
After saying that, he disappeared in a flash, which made Jing Chunxi's teeth itch: It only took two seconds to carry her over the wall, why did he have to be so anxious? He clearly wanted to frame her, but she had no evidence.
She would go back and complain, yes, complain to her mother.
Naturally, he didn't want to drill into the dog hole, but after standing there for a while, looking at the dark courtyard and vaguely hearing the howling ghost sounds coming from the canyon, Jing Chunxi quickly covered his head and ran away, lowering his head in resignation.
Not long after they left the villa, two other figures appeared behind them and burned down the woodshed and the houses next to it. After the ashes burned out, a large hole was revealed to everyone.
The sixty carriages were not spared either. We couldn't let them go, and we had to make them prove the fact that they had transferred the treasure.
More than half of the disaster relief money was missing, naturally it had been taken away and transferred. No one would believe the argument that it disappeared out of thin air.
After walking twenty miles and reaching the original mountain valley, when we looked back, we saw thick smoke and flames rising into the sky from Fubo Ridge, which could be seen from the capital.
By the time they reached the official road, passing pedestrians and carriages had given way. Galloping from the capital, a thousand heavily armed imperial guards, each of them menacing, were leading the charge, atop a massive horse, was the crown prince, Xu Ziyi.
The Crown Prince received a secret report early in the morning saying that the disaster relief silver that was looted last year was hidden in the Fourth Prince's villa on Fubo Ridge.
At first he was only half-believing and half-doubting, mainly because the source of the secret letter was unknown, and also because he thought the hiding place was unreasonable, so he was still waiting and watching.
The disaster relief silver was originally transported from the capital to the southeast, and was robbed six days after it left. How could it run back to the capital for no reason and be found on the mountain dozens of miles southwest of the South Gate? If this is true, then the Fourth Prince is too bold and too fearless of death.
He had never expected that, because it went against common sense, everyone, including the Dali Temple and Jingzhao Yin officials who were investigating the case, thought it was impossible and all investigated outside the capital, which led to no progress at all.
The information was passed directly to the prince. This was also one of Jing Chunxi's strategies. After all, the prince's biggest rival now was the fourth prince. This was also the bargaining chip why Jing Yi agreed to the action that night, because Jing Chunxi said: Even if the treasure was destroyed, it would be worth it to get rid of the fourth prince with the help of the prince.
That night, Jing Chunxi told his mother and Jing Yi, "A copy of the treasure list and account book must be passed to the Crown Prince. I want to see them fight each other."
According to Jing Chunxi's idea, it would be too easy for the Fourth Prince to just take the treasure. He should let the princes fight among themselves and cause more trouble for that dog emperor. Anyway, they no longer have any hope for the royal relatives in the palace who are licentious, credulous, favor flatterers, and ignore the suffering of the people.
On the way back, Jing Chunxi asked the handsome uncle behind her who was silent and in a bad mood, "This cave entrance is so secret, how did you find it?"
The voice behind him replied muffled and emotionless: "There's a small entrance up the cliffs of the Grand Canyon, but they might not even have discovered it."
Jing Chunxi felt horrified when he thought of the huge canyon that was more than a hundred feet deep and the steep rock walls. He could not imagine how they had climbed up there.
I really hope that I can have such skills, so that I will not be afraid of any difficulties and obstacles, and I won’t have to ask anyone for help.
At least it wouldn't be as embarrassing as tonight, where she was ridiculed and forced to crawl through a dog hole. I guess I can't blame anyone else. Besides having a protective space, she's really useless. If she were to encounter a thief as powerful as the handsome uncle, they could easily kidnap her.
