In three minutes, Xie Jinglan collected all the valuables from the warehouse and the dark room and left quickly.

These things originally belonged to her and her brother, and she would never leave them to Mr. Lin to squander.

There was also a mechanism designed in this warehouse. Once the mechanism was triggered, it immediately alarmed the guards in the mansion.

In an instant, the entire Duke Li's mansion was in an uproar, with shouts of catching the assassin rising one after another, and all the guards ran towards the warehouse.

"There's an assassin! Catch the assassin!"

At this time, Xie Jinglan and Xiao Jinzi had already arrived at the courtyard where Xie Ruyan lived, Qiudieyuan.

Only after her death in her previous life did she find out that the gold, silver and treasures hidden in Xie Ruyan's own vault were more than the money in the treasury of Duke Li's mansion. Most of them were obtained by using her blood as a medicine inducer to refine elixirs, and then using this gold and silver to pave the way for Beitang Hong to seize the throne.

She calculated based on her memories of her previous life. It had only been three months since Xie Ruyan was reborn. She had taken a total of six bowls of blood from her, and she had even poisoned the last bowl. She had not yet earned that much wealth, so she had to take it all back.

But later, for some unknown reason, her soul arrived in the 21st century, and no one knew whether Beitang Hong succeeded in becoming the crown prince.

She found the left side room next to the main house in Qiudieyuan and discovered that the door and windows were blocked.

The monkey jumped up and down to check it out, then came back and said, "It seems the entrance is inside the main room."

Xie Jinglan listened quietly for a while, but there was no one in the main room.

It seems that Xie Ruyan is still staying in Prince Mu's Mansion with Beitang Hong and has not returned yet.

"boom!"

The impatient Xiao Jinzi kicked open a window in the main room.

Xie Jinglan flew into the main room.

After a while, Xie Jinglan succeeded and got out.

Standing on the roof, he remembered that Xie Gao and his wife also had a lot of gold and silver in their private vault, so he decided to take advantage of the chaos to collect them.

The Xie family’s things must not fall into the hands of this thief from the Lin family.

Just as he was about to fly away, he saw many guards holding torches surrounding a yard.

Looking closely, I found that it was my grandmother's Ximei Garden.

The guards from the mansion went to search my grandmother's house.

Thinking that my grandmother was still soaking in the spiritual spring water in the space, I had to return to Ximei Garden first.

At this time, it is Ximei Garden.

"Bang bang bang..."

The guards who came to search banged on the gate.

"Open the door quickly and search for the thief."

Lu Demin opened the gate and stopped the people. "There are no thieves in Ximei Garden. The old lady and the eldest daughter have already gone to bed. Please search somewhere else to avoid disturbing their rest."

Seeing that he was new, a guard leader thought he didn't know the rules, so he drew his sword and pointed it at him, "Get out of the way! Otherwise, I'll arrest you as a thief."

However, Lu Demin stood there motionless, looking at these people coldly, "No one can come in without the lady's permission."

"Lu Demin, let them come in and search! It will save them from having to explain themselves." Xie Jinglan's voice came from behind.

"Yes." Lu Demin then stepped aside to let the guards come in to search.

The leader of the guards brought his men in and searched everywhere in the yard.

"Miss, excuse me for disturbing you." The head guard gave her a perfunctory nod. "Tonight, thieves broke into the mansion. We are under the orders of the Duke to conduct a full house search. Please forgive me, Miss."

"So that's how it is." Xie Jinglan stood aside and let them search with an understanding look on her face. "Be careful, don't damage my things."

"Little understands."

Half a quarter of an hour later, the guards finished the search and left.

"You can go down and rest. You don't have to keep watch." Xie Jinglan instructed Lu Demin and returned to her grandmother's room.

He closed the door, took out his nightgown and put it on again, then left through the back window.

A quarter of an hour later, she managed to get out, but she did not go back. Instead, she climbed over the wall of the mansion and went to the next house.

They avoided the officers and soldiers who were still searching the city and stopped in front of a large house in the northwest corner of the city.

Little Jinzi also came out of the space and looked at the two large characters "Lin Mansion" on the plaque. He asked in surprise: "Master, could this Lin Mansion be Lin Yuansheng's family?"

[No, Lin Yuansheng is not from Shengjing, but this is his other home. He secretly supports his mistress with the money of the Xie family.]

She only found out about this after she died in her previous life. Lin Yuansheng had hidden all the gold, silver and treasures he had embezzled from the Xie family here.

Since God has allowed her to live again, she naturally wants to take all her things back.

[Fuck, this old man really knows how to play!] Xiao Jinzi sighed.

I feel like humans are so complicated.

[Stop talking nonsense and get to work.] Xie Jinglan flew up the courtyard wall.

This is just a three-story house. There are only a few servants guarding it at night, who are huddled in the corner and dozing off.

[There are experts lying in ambush in the dark. I will go and deal with them.] Xiao Jinzi took out a pistol and a stack of talismans from the space.

[Poison them to death.] Xie Jinglan gave it another packet of poison powder.

These people are Lin Yuansheng's minions and they have all been dealt with.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Xie Jinglan came out and returned to the Duke's Mansion along the same route.

At this time, I could faintly hear the sounds of fighting and shouting.

"Master, there is a fight." Xiao Jinzi said.

Xie Jinglan stood on the roof and saw from afar a group of people besieging a man on the street.

"Mind your own business and go back home." She jumped off the roof and headed towards Xie's house.

Beitang Hong ordered the city to be sealed off, and the Imperial Guards were still searching everywhere in the city. This man ran out in the middle of the night. Isn't that courting death?

When they were almost at Duke Li's mansion, a figure suddenly flashed overhead and quickly disappeared into the night, with a strong smell of blood in the wind.

The man was seriously injured.

"Chase him quickly, don't let the thief get away!"

Xie Jinglan turned around and saw a group of imperial guards chasing after her on the street.

Judging from the voice of the speaker, it was the captain of the guards, Beitang Hong's most capable assistant.

This captain of the guards was very powerful and loyal to Beitang Hong. Many things were done by this person for him. He had been sarcastic to her in his previous life.

She suddenly changed her mind.

Since this man in black is Beitang Hong's enemy, she has to save him, and perhaps even use him for her own benefit.

With this in mind, he used his lightness skills to chase after the man in black.

"That person went into the alley." Xiao Jinzi came out of the space and pointed to an alley.

Xie Jinglan glanced behind her and saw that the imperial guards were already chasing after her.

"Go in." Xie Jinglan slipped into the alley.

It was a dead end, and she soon found the man.

Taking out a miniature flashlight and shining it, he saw that the man was kneeling on one knee with a sword in one hand, a golden mask on his face, and one hand covering his injured and bleeding right chest.

Seeing her chasing in, the man in black looked fierce. He held up his sword and tried to stand up, but he was exhausted and fell to his knees again.

"Don't move, I'm here to save you." Xie Jinglan said.

"Why should I believe you..." The man in black said in a hoarse voice.

"You are already like this, it's not up to you to believe it or not." Xie Jinglan heard the footsteps behind her getting closer and closer, so she threw out a talisman to freeze the person, and then with a sweep of her mind, the two people and the monkey entered the space.

The pursuers soon caught up and searched with torches.

"Where are the people? Why are they gone?"

"There's blood here." A royal guard pointed to a pool of blood on the ground.

"He just left, he shouldn't have gone far, hurry up and chase him!"
