My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.
Chapter 6, 1st Route Harvesting
After leaving the emperor's private treasury, Lin Mo headed straight for her next target.
They raced ahead, reaping rewards along the way.
She took care of every palace she passed by.
Finally, they arrived at the Empress's Changchun Palace.
Lin Mo originally intended to leave after emptying the Empress's private treasury.
But as she was about to leave, she saw a man dressed as a guard enter the Empress's bedchamber under the cover of a nanny.
She stopped, a glint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
She would recognize this man even if he were reduced to ashes.
In his past life, he was one of the many escorts responsible for transporting them to the place of exile.
The reason I remember this person is because he constantly made things difficult for and secretly harmed the people from the Anping Prince's Mansion along the way.
Unexpectedly, he was actually one of the Empress's men.
Since we've run into them, we should naturally go up and find out what their purpose is.
Lin Mo used spatial manipulation to silently enter the Empress's palace.
"Listen, I'm sending you to be a messenger. Today, the Prince of Anping and his family will be exiled. Find an opportunity to kill them on the way, but remember not to give yourself away," Empress Qian Ruyun said slowly.
Lin Mo was speechless.
How could this empress be so cruel?
The phrase "saying the harshest things in the gentlest tone" probably describes someone like her perfectly.
“Yes,” Qian Zhengchang replied, bowing his head.
Qian Ruyun looked up and said, "Go ahead, I will take good care of your family."
Qian Zhengchang nodded and turned to leave.
Qian Ruyun watched his retreating figure, a hint of disdain on her face, and then looked at the old woman beside her:
"Granny Rong, arrange for another trustworthy person to go in."
Let him do nothing, lie low, and wait for Qian Zhengchang to succeed before letting him get rid of Qian Zhengchang. Make sure he doesn't leave any evidence.
Furthermore, after Qian Zhengchang left Beijing, he instructed people to send his entire family on their journey.
Rong Momo nodded and turned to leave.
Qian Ruyun was in a good mood.
She sat in front of the mirror, happily admiring her own appearance, and occasionally picked up some hairpins to try them on her head.
Lin Mo, hiding in the space, shook her head.
Heartless and venomous!
This word is most fitting for the Empress.
No, we need to find her something to do, otherwise she'll keep watching them, and nobody's going to have a good time.
A coldness crept onto Lin Mo's face.
Without hesitation, he reached out his hand as she took the hairpin.
Grab her hand and stab her face hard!
"Ahhh!"
……
Chaos erupted at Changchun Palace.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Lin Mo left Changchun Palace, intending to return and reunite with Xu Wuyan.
Don't blame her for being ruthless.
If her face is ruined, her attention will be focused on how to restore her appearance, leaving her no time to care about anything else.
All she needs to do is protect the people she wants to protect.
She couldn't care about anything else.
As Lin Mo passed by the imperial kitchen and smelled the delicious aroma inside, she suddenly realized that it was noon.
The imperial kitchen should not be overlooked either.
A cold glint appeared in Lin Mo's eyes as she turned and headed towards the imperial kitchen.
And the other side.
Xu Wuyan stared at the door with a furrowed brow. What was she doing inside?
More than half an hour has passed, why haven't they come out yet?
Is she alright inside?
Just as he was hesitating whether to ask, a discordant voice came from behind him:
"Xu Wuyan, your hobby is quite unique."
Why does it smell so good here?
Xu Wuyan turned around, and when he saw who it was, a flash of disgust crossed his eyes.
Zhao Zhongwen, son of Zhao Taifu, was the Crown Prince's study companion.
He simply turned his head away, ignoring the other person.
Zhao Zhongwen looked bored; he and Xu Wuyan were the type who couldn't see eye to eye and exchange a single word.
Seeing that Xu Wuyan was putting on airs and ignoring everyone again, he secretly despised him and then went inside to relieve himself.
But he was stopped as soon as he took a step.
"There are people inside," Xu Wuyan said coldly.
"We're all men, what's the big deal?" Zhao Zhongwen said dismissively.
"Get out of the way, I'm in a hurry."
“Woman, my wife.” Xu Wuyan glanced at him.
lady?
Zhao Zhongwen's eyes widened, and then he suddenly burst into laughter:
"Xu Wuyan, who are you trying to fool? Your wife? You're married, why wouldn't I know?"
"Why should you know?" Xu Wuyan asked coldly.
There is a secret!
Zhao Zhongwen stared intently at the door behind Xu Wuyan. He had been guarding this place and wouldn't let him in; there must be a secret inside.
Today, he is determined to uncover Xu Wuyan's secrets.
Taking advantage of Xu Wuyan's unpreparedness, Zhao Zhongwen darted forward and reached out to push the door open.
Xu Wuyan's face darkened, and he blocked Zhao Zhongwen with a swift movement.
Shout:
"Zhao Zhongwen, how dare you!"
Zhao Zhongwen, who had taken two steps back to steady himself, looked up:
"Xu Wuyan, you didn't do something shady here, so you're afraid to let me in, did you?"
“I told you, my wife…”
"Who are you trying to fool?" Zhao Zhongwen said with a disdainful look.
"You, Xu Wuyan, are cursed to bring misfortune to your wife. What family would be so blind as to marry their daughter to you?"
Also, I hadn't heard anything about your marriage before yesterday..."
"Because we are married today." Lin Mo opened the door and came out.
He looked at Zhao Zhongwen with a half-smile:
"This marriage was bestowed by the Emperor. If you have any objections, go to the Emperor."
After saying that, he called Xu Wuyan and left.
Zhao Zhongwen was stunned.
A woman really did come out of there, so Xu Wuyan really got married and took a wife?
This is a big deal!
Zhao Zhongwen, disregarding his urgent need, rushed out.
Lin Mo and Xu Wuyan walked one after the other out of the palace without saying a word.
As soon as they stepped out of the palace gates, Xu Feng rushed over.
He looked at Xu Wuyan with a grim expression, "Your Highness, we just received news that the Prince is dead!"
Xu Wuyan's face turned pale, and his hands clenched into fists.
He couldn't help but look at Lin Mo; what she said had come true.
He wanted to ask her how she knew these things, but Lin Mo spoke first:
"There's no time, we need to get back now."
The imperial edict ordering the confiscation of property and exile will arrive soon.
Xu Wuyan steadied himself and quickly boarded the carriage.
Once they boarded, the carriage sped off at top speed.
Xu Wuyan didn't waste time questioning her about how she knew, but instead thought about the future of the Anping Prince's Mansion.
Upon returning to the Prince's residence, Xu Wuyan immediately left Lin Mo to arrange matters.
Lin Mo disagreed.
After meeting her mother and younger brother, she asked them to stay in the courtyard, and then she strolled around the Anping Prince's Mansion.
The Prince of Anping's mansion was very large, but the population was not large.
Prince Anping was a devoted man. After marrying his queen, he stayed with her and lived a simple life. There were no concubines or mistresses in the house.
Unfortunately, the princess died young, passing away three years ago.
Lin Mo saw a storeroom that looked like a good source of direct income, and naturally, she wouldn't let it go.
Staying here will only benefit the emperor.
It shouldn't be the dog emperor who benefits.
However, when she saw that there was almost no gold, silver and banknotes in the storeroom, she guessed that Xu Wuyan had listened to her words last night and had taken the gold and silver jewelry that was easy to move and carry out of Anping Prince's Mansion.
Lin Mo wandered around the Prince Anping's mansion and ran into Xu Wuyan when she arrived at the front yard.
Before the two could speak, a sharp, piercing quack's cry came from outside the gate:
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Xu Wuyan's heart sank to the bottom; his last shred of hope was gone.
Everyone in the Prince of Anping's mansion came out and knelt down to receive the imperial decree.
But as soon as the imperial edict was read, cries of weeping erupted.
Eunuch Liu, who was reading the imperial edict, shook his head:
"His Majesty has ordered you to set off immediately without any delay. When you leave the residence, you are not allowed to take anything with you."
"Your Highness, I'm sorry."
After saying that, he immediately waved his hand to signal the guards behind him to come forward and drive the people away.
The Prince of Anping's residence was in complete chaos.
Lin Mo did not resist, but carefully protected her mother and younger brother, standing in a safe place.
When Lin Mo saw Xu Wuyan bring over his two younger sisters, who were pale with fright but still had a resolute expression and didn't cry, she couldn't help but sigh.
No wonder the Prince of Anping's mansion was able to last so long; look at them, even the girls are more resilient than the men.
And the Marquis of Changle's residence...
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Lin Mo's eyes. It seems things have gotten out of hand now.
If she remembered correctly, Zhou Yuxuan was going to get a beating today.
In her past life, she had someone to take care of her. In this life, she's curious: who will take care of her?
How long can her injuries hold her up?
and also……
A chill ran through Lin Mo's eyes. She would repay everything her family had done to her in her past life!
Zhou Yuxuan, hang in there!
