The two went straight to Xinlan Garden.
But what neither of them expected was that the once magnificent Xinlan Garden had now lost its luster and turned gray!
It looked like there was a burglary in there!
All the calligraphy and paintings, porcelain and jade articles disappeared, even the trees in the yard were dug up, as well as the flowers and plants inside and outside the house, the screens in the house, even the tables, chairs, and beds, all disappeared, and even the jade tiles on the floor of the wing room were pried up!!!
When I looked up again, the glazed tiles on the roof had been stripped clean...
Shen Zhiyi struggled to get out of Xie Tingyu's arms, stood on the ground, her face full of disbelief.
Her face lost all color, turned pale, and her mouth opened slightly: "This, this..."
Unable to even stand steadily, she staggered back two steps and was supported by Xie Tingyu.
She looked back at Xie Tingyu, and she could no longer hold back her tears, crying out sadly: "Brother Yu, our home is gone..."
Shen Zhiyi was really sad this time.
Every plant, tree, and object in the Xinlan Garden were bought and decorated bit by bit by her and her brother Yu, spending countless efforts on it.
Not to mention, some of the treasures inside are rare in the world, and some were even bought from other countries by Brother Yu.
She had never even given these things to her mother...
She really calls this place home.
But now...it's all gone.
She was so angry that she vomited blood.
"Yi'er!"
Seeing Xinlanyuan in such a state, Xie Tingyu was also very annoyed, his face livid. At this time, seeing Yier vomiting blood due to this, he was even more furious.
He was so angry that he was about to smoke, and roared: "Where is the butler! Tell him to come to see me!"
Not long after, the middle-aged butler with white hair and beard knelt down in the dusty Xinlan Garden, trembling with fear.
A few hours ago, the prince angrily came to him and questioned him about selling the land and house...
He explained that it was the princess' order to sell it, all to raise money for him to go to Liangzhou to deal with the flood. Although the prince was angry at the time, he was not angry to this extent...
How could he know that Xie Tingyu originally thought that Shen Nanxing had sold all her dowry but still had not collected the 50,000 taels of silver, and there was still some shortfall. In addition, she might have heard from somewhere that he had hidden Yi'er in the land and house, and she became jealous, so she set her sights on the land and house.
The things in Xinlan Garden alone are worth more than 20,000 taels of silver. After Shen Nanxing took out all her dowry, even if she sold it at a low price, she wouldn't need to sell the things in Xinlan Garden...
But how does the butler know all this?
Seeing that the prince was angry, he tremblingly took out something wrapped in three layers of brocade from his arms. After opening the layers one by one, he revealed a silver note with the seal of the Sifang Bank and handed it to him.
"Your Highness, the princess has instructed me to personally deliver this to you."
God knows how uneasy he felt carrying this thing. He always felt it was not safe no matter where he put it. He could only carry it on his body and touch it with his hands all the time, for fear of losing it.
I feel at ease now that I have given it to the prince.
Xie Tingyu took it with a serious face, took a look, and found that it was indeed a large silver note of fifty thousand taels of silver.
I felt a little relieved.
But what does this have to do with the current situation in Xinlanyuan?
He asked sharply, "What's going on in Xinlanyuan?"
The butler was stunned. Ah... Doesn't this banknote explain the problem?
But seeing that the prince didn't seem to connect the two, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain to him: "Your Highness, the things in Xinlan Garden were also sold for silver according to the princess' order..."
"Where's the silver?" Xie Tingyu's face was very gloomy.
He worked hard to buy these things with silver, and she exchanged them for silver...
This trip back and forth must have cost a lot of money!
