Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 566

"Father, I have some good news to report. During my recent trip south, I unexpectedly discovered the headquarters of 'Naihe'!"

Mo Zhonggui's single sentence in court greatly surprised Huo Tingsheng.

After surviving the assassination attempt, Huo Tingsheng realized that the "Naihe" organization could no longer be allowed to exist. Although he had hired "Naihe" many times before, they could be hired by him to kill people, and they could also be hired by others to kill him. They even dared to take on the mission of assassinating the emperor, and they actually had the ability to do so. How could he tolerate the existence of such an organization in the world?

Huo Tingsheng issued arrest warrants for Fu Shiyan and the "Naihe" assassins, and also sent out a large number of people to find the headquarters of "Naihe", but so far he has found nothing.

Unexpectedly, it was discovered by "Huo Jinghuai"?

Huo Tingsheng quickly asked, "Where?"

Mo Chonggui said, "About two hundred miles south of the Li River, in the deep mountains, there is a mountain called Naihe Mountain, which is quite large. However, when I arrived there, I found that Naihe Mountain had been breached and burned into a sea of ​​fire. Everyone inside had already fled."

Huo Tingsheng was stunned: "It's already been breached? Who did it?"

Mo Zhonggui: "Your subject does not know. 'Naihe' has killed countless people over the decades, and his grudges are spread all over the world. Perhaps he has encountered someone seeking revenge."

As he spoke, he ordered his men to bring up the chests of gold and silver treasures that had been collected from Mount Naihe.

"These are the valuables that your son collected from the storerooms of Mount Naihe and sent people to transport them back. These valuables should rightfully belong to Father Emperor."

Huo Tingsheng was overjoyed.

Since the assassination attempt, "Naihe" has become his greatest worry; he can't sleep peacefully at night until he gets rid of him.

But since the "Naihe" headquarters has been breached and the assassins inside have scattered, even if Fu Shiyan is still alive, he won't pose much of a threat.

This is indeed a joyous occasion!

Huo Tingsheng was in a good mood and immediately said, "It's rare that you still know to bring things back to present to me. Your intentions are commendable."

He wasn't so short-sighted; such a large amount of gold and silver jewelry was nothing to the national treasury. The main reason was that "Naihe" was gone, a major threat eliminated, and these valuables, as spoils of war, naturally pleased him.

Although it wasn't Huo Jinghuai who eliminated "Naihe," he came to deliver good news and even offered up the spoils of war, so Huo Tingsheng found him even more pleasing to the eye.

Huo Tingsheng felt he should reward Huo Jinghuai with something, so he thought for a moment and said, "Seventh Prince, I remember that your Seventh Prince's Mansion has been in disrepair for many years and is quite dilapidated. It is no longer suitable for you to live there. Here, I will give you the mansion on Jiawang Street. You can choose an auspicious day to move there yourself."

The mansion on Jiawang Street was once the residence of a prince in the previous dynasty, and it is currently vacant.

Although the scale and layout are comparable, that mansion not only covers a larger area and has a more beautiful landscape, but it was also newly rebuilt in this dynasty and is still considered brand new. Both the buildings and the gardens inside are far superior to the current Seventh Prince's mansion.

Mo Zhonggui quickly bowed and thanked him, saying, "Thank you, Father Emperor."
