Mingruo suddenly stood up on tiptoes and kissed Si Haochen's cheek: "As long as you are here, I won't be afraid."
Si Haochen held Mingruo's chin to prevent her from running away after teasing her, and covered her soft lips with cool lips.
"Hmm~" Mingruo pinched Si Haochen's waist a few times, "I'm doing business..."
Si Haochen said softly at the end: "It was you who challenged my willpower first."
"Can you still be more upright?" Mingruo covered her hot cheeks.
"Xiao Bai hasn't come back yet?" Si Haochen raised his eyebrows.
"..." Well, this point really cannot be refuted.
The two finally came to the warehouse where the silver coins were stored, and found that there were not only boxes shipped from the Shi Mansion, but also many boxes for the national treasury to store silver coins, and there were seals with large seals on them.
Si Haochen opened a box and found that it was full of official silver with stamps, about one million taels.
Si Haochen raised his eyebrows, not realizing that Lao Wu was quite capable and could actually get money out of Dan Xu's hands.
"Are these all moved away?" Mingruo rubbed her hands, feeling a little excited.
"Let's move." Si Haochen's eyes were full of smiles when he saw his wife's wealth-obsessed look.
"Okay." In just a few breaths, Mingruo emptied the entire warehouse. He scratched his chin and said, "So much money is missing, how scary it is. We are scared to get money, so we are a bit short.
Humanitarian spirit..."
Although he didn't know what 'humanitarian spirit' was, it didn't affect Si Haochen's understanding of the little girl's intentions: "What do you want to do?"
"I'm thinking that I'll put some incense in Prince Li's Mansion to make them all fall asleep." Mingruo said with a smile, "In this way, Prince Li will only think that the money has been moved away, and he will be angry, at least he won't be angry.
Are you afraid?"
Si Haochen's mouth twitched: "Okay."
"Okay, let's go and light up the smoke. It will be dawn soon." Mingruo was led out by Si Haochen, and he used the medical system to improve the inhaled anesthetic.
First, he lit a fire in an inconspicuous place, then sprinkled the anesthetic into it and made a "go quickly" gesture.
Before the smoke started to rise, Si Haochen jumped onto the roof with Mingruo in his arms and hurried back to his house.
"Okay, the anesthetic can't reach this far." Mingruo patted Si Haochen's waist.
"We haven't even left the palace yet," Si Haochen said.
"Hey, haven't you gone out yet?" Mingruo thought for a moment and said, "Can Linglong make up for it a few more times?"
"No need, this place is far away from the center of the palace. People here probably rarely go there." Si Haochen looked down condescendingly, feeling that this place was quite desolate, and maybe there was no one at all.
"Oh." Mingruo nodded.
The two were about to leave when they suddenly heard a whimpering sound. In this silent night, it was really scary.
Mingruo shrank into Si Haochen's arms: "Is there someone pretending to be a ghost to scare us?"
"How do you know it's just an act?" Si Haochen deliberately frightened the little girl, "What if there is really a ghost?"
"It's not true..." Mingruo is a descendant of a family of mysterious doctors. Although he has almost zero practical experience, he still has quite a wealth of theoretical knowledge.
If there really is a ghost, it's not like this kind of aura.
"Have you ever seen a ghost?" Si Haochen raised his eyebrows slightly.
"That's not true." Mingruo shook his head. Grandpa said that women are inherently Yin and should avoid yin and yang affairs. Therefore, he would not take her to handle ghost-related commissions.
"Want to take a look?" Si Haochen asked.
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded, and it would be fine if he went to find out. If he didn't look, he might still think about it after he went back.
Si Haochen led Mingruo towards the direction where the crying came from.
There was darkness all around, but there was light where the cry came from. The two came to the courtyard where the lights were lit, and Si Haochen gently lifted the tiles covering the roof.
This should be a Buddhist hall. The room is very large. There are Buddha statues in the Buddhist niches in the front. There are ever-burning lamps on the altar table. The incense in the incense burner has been burned out, leaving only a little bit of smoke...
The person sitting slumped in front of the Buddha statue is not a stranger. It is Princess Li Shen Bichi. The one who is crying is her maid Yuhuan, and there are two clear slap marks on her face.
"What's the use of crying? I'll send a message to the palace tomorrow morning and ask my aunt to come see me!" Shen Bichi gritted her teeth.
"Princess, no." Cui Huan, who was still clear-headed, quickly stopped, "The prince is punishing you to kneel in the Buddhist hall today because you want to enter the palace to see the concubine. If the prince knows that you invited the concubine, I'm afraid it will Even more angry..."
"It's just that he doesn't want to attend the winter ceremony himself, why won't he let me go?" Shen Bichi became more and more annoyed as she thought about it. Before getting married, the Prince of Ceremonies was very polite and would often take her to some places.
But after they got married, everything changed. She couldn't see anyone for ten and a half days, and she only said she had a cough. She was not allowed to go to the main hospital to attend to her illness, so she made snacks and supplements and sent them there, and only the maid from the main hospital came to pick her up. She was not allowed to go in to visit if she had something stolen.
These are enough, but what's even more outrageous is that she is not allowed to leave the palace. She can neither go shopping and have tea, nor can she attend various banquets hosted by the ladies of various palaces. She is not allowed to enter the palace to pay greetings to her aunt...
Shen Bichi felt more like she was in prison than a princess.
"Princess, please be patient. When the new year comes, there will be banquets in various palaces, and you will definitely have to move around. There will also be banquets in the palace. If you have anything to say, please tell the concubine."
Cui Huan was sincerely caring for her young lady. She had always felt that Prince Li was a bit scary. He seemed gentle and elegant on the surface, but his eyes were very sinister. She felt chilled all over when he looked at her.
"Be patient, bear with me, the more I bear with it, the more he goes too far!" They have only been married for a short time, and they can't see anyone, and they are trapped in the house and cannot go out. If she continues to endure it, she may die in this house. No one knows.
"But even if the concubine is invited, the concubine has made the decision for you. Once the concubine leaves, it will be hard for the concubine to control what the prince will do to you... By then, the relationship between you and the prince will probably be even worse. Stiff..."
"Woo... Wu..." Shen Bichi, who was originally so aggressive, suddenly started crying, "If my cousin would marry me as his concubine, things wouldn't be like this... Wu Wu... It's all that bitch Yan Mingruo..."
Mingruo opened her mouth in an O shape, so she climbed up the wall in the middle of the night to eat a melon. Why did the melon come and go and hit herself?
At first, Mingruo felt that Shen Bichi was quite pitiful. But when she heard her cursing herself at the end, she felt as sick as if she had swallowed a fly.
If you want to be a mistress and you are rejected but still scolded, what are your views on this?
Si Haochen frowned slightly, feeling that he was offended. Shen Bichi was going to marry Lao Wu and was not having a good life. What did this have to do with him and Ruo'er?!
Si Haochen covered the tiles back and left with Mingruo.
