Spare my life! The princess can make the villains read each other's minds
Chapter 11 Theft in the Qiwang Mansion's Warehouse
Concubine Li was very satisfied with Xiao Yan. Her son was obedient and well-behaved, and she would try her best to do whatever she said.
Unlike her second son, Xiao Jun, who could not speak but was also disobedient and had no similarities with her.
She felt that Xiao Jun was still holding a grudge against her for what happened that year!
That means Xiao Jun is ignorant!
Back then, he became mute out of helplessness.
He grew up in the palace and experienced a lot of blood and gore there, but he still couldn't understand why the women in the palace had so many reasons to be helpless. If he still couldn't understand her, it would be very disheartening for her as a mother!
As soon as Concubine Li left, Xiaomei, who had eaten too much, was lying comfortably on the ceiling of the hall with her round belly, surrounded by all kinds of bones.
There are bones of chicken, duck, sheep, etc., surrounding it in a circle!
The food in this mortal world is really good!
It likes it very much!
It looked at the sunset in the sky and meowed comfortably.
"Master, can we leave here now?"
Tian Ruomo in the space had also eaten her fill. She was sitting on the pavilion, looking at the small bridge and the flowing water. She said, "Things here are not over yet. Didn't you hear the people down there say that there is a large amount of silver in the storehouse of Prince Qi's mansion?"
"I'm worried that the Prince Qi's Mansion won't be able to keep the money well. As the Princess of Qi, it's my responsibility to keep the money safe."
"With money, I can buy you more delicious food!"
Xiaomei's appetite is almost as big as that of Taotie!
Tian Rumo only ate a little of the cooked food from the kitchen, while Xiaomei ate up all the food that was enough for more than ten or twenty people.
If she didn't have a lot of money, she really wouldn't be able to support such a big-eating cat!
You can't carry it around with you every day to steal food!
When Xiaomei heard that she had to use money to buy food, her saliva began to flow again. She became excited and nodded repeatedly.
"Meow, Master is right. That is Master's money. It is safest for Master to keep it."
"Xiao Mei will go find it right away!"
It leaped up like lightning, landed on the roof of another attic, and quickly disappeared.
Xiao Yan, who was in the main hall, was feeling pain in his face and had an injury on one of his shoulders. Plus, there was still no news from Tian Rumo, so he felt very uneasy and had no appetite for dinner.
Hu Xiaohui accompanied him in the main hall. Her stomach gradually became hungry, and finally it made a rumbling sound, which was heard by Xiao Yan.
He originally wanted to ask Hu Xiaohui to have dinner, but then he thought of the woman in front of him, who only had him in her heart and eyes. If he didn't eat, Hu Xiaohui would stay with him no matter how hungry she was.
Thinking of this, he felt a little touched and distressed, so he waved his hand and said, "Come here, serve dinner!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Jing walked in and said anxiously, "Your Highness, something strange happened in the kitchen. All the prepared meals and stored ingredients disappeared suddenly."
"We've sent someone out to buy new ingredients. Dinner may not be available until later!"
Hu Xiaohui's face darkened. "Something suddenly disappeared?"
"Are you sure it's not a spy in the kitchen, committing corruption and stealing for personal gain?"
Zhao Jing lowered his head and said, "I went to the kitchen an hour ago. At that time, the kitchen's several storage rooms were still full of things."
"It would take at least three ox carts to move so many things. Now, the Qi Palace is under lockdown. You can't leave without a token, let alone leave with three ox carts."
"Moreover, food is of utmost importance in the palace. The chefs we employ are all absolutely loyal. They would never dare to do such things as stealing from the palace and delaying the prince's meal."
Xiao Yan and Hu Xiaohui looked at each other and frowned.
Hu Xiaohui said in a deep voice, "So, the things really disappeared out of thin air?"
Zhao Jing said with a complicated look in his eyes, "From what we have found so far...it is indeed true!"
"Things really disappeared inexplicably!"
What happened in Prince Qi’s Mansion today was too weird!
There is no explanation at all!
For a moment, the hall fell silent and no one spoke!
Hu Xiaohui wanted to bring up the question again, wondering if there was something dirty inside the palace. However, after what happened to Concubine Li, she had learned her lesson and eventually did not dare to bring it up again.
Xiao Yan thought for a long time before saying, "Zhao Jing, tell the people in the kitchen to keep their mouths shut to prevent people from panicking."
"Also, step up patrols in the palace to prevent the same thing from happening again!"
Zhao Jing bowed and agreed, and was about to leave when a figure ran in hurriedly without any greeting, with a look of panic on his face.
"Your Majesty, something serious has happened!"
Hu Xiaohui's face darkened. "Qian Tong, you are the commander of the guards in the mansion, how come you don't know the rules?"
"You came in without informing me, and you didn't show respect to the prince. I'll punish you for disrespecting the royal family!"
Qian Tong was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak, but Hu Xiaohui spoke first, "Qian Tong, as the commander of the guards in the mansion, if you don't set an example yourself, I won't be able to enforce the order if I don't punish you."
"Come here, take him out and give him thirty lashes as a warning to others!"
It has been a month since she entered the Prince of Qi's Palace. Although Xiao Yan asked everyone to listen to her, there are still people who look down on her as a concubine and do not take her seriously!
She has been looking for an opportunity to establish her prestige.
Qian Tong, as the commander of the guards of Prince Qi's Palace, made a mistake. This opportunity is really rare!
As long as Qian Tong is punished once, who in the Prince Qi's Mansion would dare to disobey her in the future?
Qian Tong was stunned for a moment, then he knelt down in front of Xiao Yan, kowtowed and said, "Your Highness, I was anxious for a moment and lost my composure. Let me finish what I want to say first..."
“Commander Qian, no matter what you have to say, you can’t put it above the rules!”
Hu Xiaohui once again interrupted Qian Tong and said, "30 strokes of the cane. If you have anything to say, take the punishment first!"
She turned to Xiao Yan and said in a coquettish voice, "Your Majesty, there is no order without rules. Especially the important people in the mansion, they should take the lead in observing the rules."
"Your Highness, you must listen to me on this matter. The Qi Palace is in a turbulent time right now, so we must establish some rules so that we can be invincible."
Xiao Yan always thought that Hu Xiaohui was a talented woman. After listening to her words, he also felt that they made sense, so he said with a sullen face, "That's right, the more powerful a person is, the more they should set a good example!"
"Come here, follow the concubine's instructions. No matter how important the matter is, the rules cannot be broken. Don't mind this little time. Let's finish the fight and talk about it later!"
Qian Tong was startled, "Your Majesty, I am here to report to the warehouse..."
"There's even less trouble in the warehouse!"
Xiao Yan interrupted Qian Tong and waved his hand, "Drag him out!"
Several guards who were waiting on the side came over like wolves and tigers and dragged Qian Tong out. Qian Tong's screams were immediately heard from outside.
Soon, Qian Tongcai was helped in by two guards and knelt in front of Xiao Yan.
Hu Xiaohui was very satisfied. This matter would spread in Prince Qi's mansion and her prestige would be established.
Seeing Qian Tong kneeling there with a pale face, Xiao Yan spoke slowly, "Now you can tell me, what happened in the warehouse?"
"If it wasn't a big deal, I would have punished you!"
Qian Tong bowed his hands weakly, "Report to the prince, the warehouse was robbed!"
Xiao Yan paused, his eyes widened as wide as they could, and looked at Qian Tong in astonishment, "The warehouse was robbed?"
"What was lost?"
Qian Tong took a deep breath and said, "Everything there, including the boxes and wooden frames, is gone!"
what?
Is everything gone?
How can this be?
However, Qian Tong is the commander of the guards and would never joke about such things.
That's true!
Xiao Yan jumped up and shouted, "Such a big thing, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Qian Tong had a look on his face that made him want to cry but couldn't. "I do want to say something!"
"you······"
Xiao Yan pointed at Qian Tong, not knowing what to say. He could only wave his hand and run out the door.
Hu Xiaohui was also quite shocked, and shouted in a delicate voice, "Prince, please don't run too fast, you are injured, wait for me!"
She also chased after him with the guards from Prince Qi's mansion.
