An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

The darkroom in the front yard study was roughly the same size as the basement they had just acquired. Though small, the contents within were truly enticing. Paintings and calligraphy, porcelain, rare ancient books, and polished gemstones and jade—these precious items filled the entire space, each radiating an alluring glow. Under the light, these treasures appeared even more precious, and every inch of the space was filled with the aura of wealth.

Jing Chunxi cleaned up easily. Her movements were skillful and quick, and she had become accustomed to cleaning so often.

When she turned around and came out again, the bookcases, tables and chairs, ornaments, and calligraphy and paintings in the study were all tidied up. The study, which had been quite full and orderly with a touch of ink fragrance, was now empty, with only tranquility left.

When they walked outside again, Ah Qi and Jing Yi didn't say a few words. Ah Qi even doubted her speed. Miss, did you go through so much trouble to come in just to walk around and show yourself?

But when Ah Qi faced Jing Yi, there was always a trace of shame on his face. He lowered his head, and his eyes revealed a hint of uneasiness. He seemed to feel guilty about what had just happened.

Jing Yi remained silent, his eyes were deep and calm, as if he was thinking about something important.

Seeing that everyone was present, Ah Qi quickly suggested to Jing Yi, "Let's go through the side door in front? We just need to deal with two more doormen and we'll be done." There was a hint of urgency in his voice, perhaps because he wanted to complete the task as quickly as possible, or perhaps because he wanted to make up for his previous mistake.

There are few people in the front yard, and the problems that need to be solved have been solved. The others have run to the backyard, and someone should come back soon.

As Ah Qi finished speaking, Chong San added, "Two horsemen were unable to intercept him in time, so he escaped. He must have gone to report the news. With so many people coming back and forth, it shouldn't take long for a large group of people to arrive. We have to hurry."

Hearing this, Jing Chunxi's heart tightened slightly. She subconsciously tightened the dagger in her sleeve, and a hint of vigilance flashed in her eyes. Jing Yi was silent for a moment, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was weighing something.

Ah Qi couldn't help but ask again: "Boss, are we going back home directly?"

At this time, the sound of the night watchman's drum could be heard. It was already the hour of Yin. The night was already deep, with a few sparse stars hanging in the sky and the moonlight shining on the ground, which seemed particularly cold and clear.

Jing Yi took a deep breath and spoke slowly, "Since we've already alerted the enemy, word will surely get out. Let's get it done tonight. Otherwise, security will be even tighter tomorrow night. Let's go, to Grand Tutor Peng's residence right now." His voice was undeniably firm, his eyes brimming with determination. Jing Chunxi wholeheartedly agreed. She nodded, a hint of determination in her eyes.

Then, Jing Yi said, "Put away all the remaining drugs. Xier, change them into sleeping pills." Everyone tidied up their slightly messy clothes and put away their sleeping pills.

Jing Yi continued, "No need to gather together, go out separately. Let's stick to the original division of labor. Xiao Man and Ah Qi will take care of the old man at the gate. He's not an ordinary man, so you guys should be careful and make sure you see him fall down with your own eyes. The other one, Chong San, you guys will take care of him."

A few words clarified the division of labor. But for some reason, Jing Chunxi still felt a little uneasy and uneasy. She watched Ah Qi prepare to leave and couldn't help but secretly slip him two packets of poison. Chong San followed and slipped him two packets as well.

Jing Yi looked at Jing Chunxi's cautious expression and added to Ah Qi: "Don't be careless, he is an old fox." His voice was full of warning and his eyes were extremely serious.

Several people nodded and then went in different directions.

The most important orientation for houses in the capital was to have the east side rich and the west side noble, and this was true even in the inner city. The Taifu Mansion was still located in the west of the city, but it was still some distance away from the Prince Ping Mansion.

In the night, the streets were silent, broken only by the occasional barking of dogs. Jing Chunxi ran after her master, feeling no fatigue at all, her steps also as fast as a swift breeze. Her heart was filled with nervousness and anticipation, wondering what would happen next.

There was no trace of the people in front of them along the way, and the two of them quickly entered the front yard of the Taifu Mansion.

According to the information originally obtained, the secret room and basement are both in the front yard, so the front yard is naturally heavily guarded.

At this moment, except for July, September and Xiaoman, the other four were lurking in pairs on different rooftops.

Even though they hadn't made any noise, they still felt danger was everywhere. They carefully observed their surroundings, fearing danger might lurk in every corner.

Three of the guards on guard below had been knocked unconscious by them, and two of them had been dragged into the darkness. Only Xiaoman was slightly weaker, and she had to wait until Jiuyue came to help to drag them away.

Jing Yi's voice slowly reached everyone's ears: "Remove the tiles of all the houses and put the sleeping pills in them. Wait a moment before going down." His voice was cold but with a hint of calmness and decisiveness.

Rushing in rashly would definitely not be a good decision as the master had made. If they alarmed the people inside, the entire front yard would be in chaos. Alerting everyone would be more than the seven of them could handle.

Looking down from above, the defenses were as precise as an iron barrel. Every corner they could see was swarming with people, either openly or covertly. If Xiao Man hadn't gone down first and dealt with the two wolfhounds, the area would have been a mad barking mess.

In the darkness of the night, the wolfdog's body lay quietly in a dark corner, looking particularly desolate.

Jing Yi's voice rang in Jing Chunxi's ears again: "Look at the tree over there."

Following the direction her master pointed, Jing Chunxi spotted a camphor tree, slightly shorter than the one at Qingshan Villa. Its outline was exceptionally clear in the night. If her master hadn't pointed it out, she wouldn't have noticed the dark mass in the center, significantly larger than the branches, standing out against the pitch-black night.

Jing Yi said softly, "Don't just look at the shadows on the trees. Pay attention, the shaking of the leaves is not caused by the wind." There was a hint of instruction in his voice and a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

Jing Chunxi carefully observed the branches and leaves of the tree, not missing a single one. She tried to remain calm, trying to figure out the secret her master had mentioned. But after a long moment, she held her forehead in embarrassment.

There was no wind tonight, so the leaves didn't stir in the breeze, and she only saw complete stillness.

Where is the vibration? She dared not say this, and could only stare quietly. If the master knew how stupid she was, she would definitely be severely punished and trained when she returned.
