Before dark, Feng Jingming had prepared a hiding place outside the city and left the city before the city gate closed.

Su Yunwan took out the food packed last night and had a delicious dinner with Qin Junyi.

According to the plan, the emperor's private treasury was raided in the first half of the night, and Prime Minister Xiao was captured in the second half of the night.

After the meal, the two of them changed their clothes and headed to the palace's private treasury.

In just over two months, most of the warehouses that were once emptied out have been filled with items.

Among them were the belongings and belongings seized from the Su Mansion in the morning.

With the previous experience, Su Yunwan and Qin Junyi showed up in the most valuable bank vault with ease.

Looking at the wooden boxes piled high in the half warehouse, she smiled slightly, put her hand on the front box, and put all the boxes that were touching together into her carry-on space.

Just when she was a third of the way through, something unexpected happened.

Jingle bell, jingle bell…

A series of bells sounded sharply from behind the box.

"Come here! There are thieves!" outside the warehouse, the guard shouted loudly, and a large number of people surrounded him.

Qin Junyi immediately grabbed Su Yunwan's hand and jumped onto the beam above his head.

The next second, the warehouse door was kicked open with a clang, and the Imperial Guards poured into the warehouse like a tide.

"No, part of the wooden box was stolen. Search carefully!"

Seeing that they wouldn't leave for a while, Su Yunwan, who had become invisible, simply teleported Qin Junyi to another warehouse and collected them without saying a word.

Like the silver warehouse, this grain warehouse also has a hidden bell that sounds a warning.

Su Yunwan smiled coldly and ignored the footsteps and noises coming from far away. It was not until the second before the warehouse door was opened that she took Qin Junyi's hand and continued to the next warehouse.

In this way, the two of them were followed by a large number of imperial guards, moving around more than a dozen places including the five private treasuries, the sixth bureau of the inner court, the imperial study room, and the library pavilion. Like locusts passing through, they moved everything that caught their eyes.

The emperor looked at the inner treasury that had become empty after being visited several times by Su Yunwan, and he roared helplessly: "Search! Be sure to find all the thieves and items..."

The heavily guarded palace hunted and searched all night, but not even a suspicious figure was found.

In the end, Qin Junyi showed up on purpose, used the moves from the Royal Qiankun Sword Art, fought with the masters inside, and then left the palace invisibly with Su Yunwan and returned to the courtyard.

"Wanwan, you take a rest here, I'll go to the treasury to make some noise and confuse the public." Qin Junyi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Su Yunwan.

Su Yunwan drank it all in one gulp and said involuntarily: "Let's go together."

The treasury is the Treasury of the Ministry of Revenue, which is heavily guarded and difficult for ordinary people to approach.

When the two arrived nearby, Qin Junyi deliberately appeared, attracting the guards to flee.

Su Yunwan entered the bank and prepared to collect a few boxes of silver in a symbolic manner. However, the huge warehouse was empty, with only a dozen boxes of silver stacked in the corner.

A box of silver is 1000 taels, and the entire national treasury is only 10,000+, which is less than one-tenth of the royal private treasury.

Why are we so short-changed? !

Su Yunwan went to the archives of the Ministry of Revenue, and after searching together, he found the record of allocating silver coins.

She turned to the end and only looked at the flow of the past three months.

It was discovered that in addition to allocating disaster relief funds and military pay, a huge amount of money had also flowed out.

Just two months ago, in order to make up for the losses in the private treasury, the new emperor reached into the national treasury and took the national treasury silver used for the world as his own. He moved as much as 100 million taels to the private treasury!

Since the new emperor was so indifferent between public and private affairs, Su Yunwan simply collected all the remaining 10,000+ taels of silver, and then used it on the refugees at an appropriate opportunity to avoid being misappropriated for personal use by the dog emperor again.

After the matter was over, she and Qin Junyi went to the Prime Minister's Mansion. After some searching, he went to Prime Minister Xiao's dormitory and took Prime Minister Xiao away unconscious while sleeping in the bed.

It was almost dawn at this time. At the foot of a barren mountain ten miles away from the north gate of the capital, Feng Jingming was wandering around, uneasy.
