Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 163 Returning with a Full Reward (Part [-])
The second thought was... no wonder the imperial court wants to destroy Taoism, and dare to amass money so arrogantly at the foot of the imperial city. If the emperor does not mess with him, who will he mess with?

The third thought was, "Girl, why don't we hack the one upstairs too?"

The two statues were split open, and the fragments scattered across half of the dark room. Amidst the earth-shattering sound, the dust gradually dispersed, revealing the...gold and silver treasures all over the floor.And the most shocking thing among them is the two tall... golden Buddha statues.

"Is it really gold...?"

Cen Yan hugged his arms and twirled around twice, pushed, but didn't push, opened his mouth to chew, but was grabbed by Gu Cuo's collar, "Don't move these two Buddha statues."

"Why? You don't believe in Buddhism..."

Ji Wuyan glanced at him lazily, and poured cold water on him, "The back mountain is not far from the city. There is such a big commotion, and the officers and soldiers will rush over soon. By then, the two golden statues are destined not to fall into our hands." In your hand... Even if you find someone to carry it away before they arrive, let alone how to carry it, such a big goal... Do you think you can put it in our mansion in a dignified manner? So, before the person arrives, , what should be taken, as for the Buddha statue, just put it aside."

"Oh?!" Cen Yan doubted his life. At that time, the four emeralds jumped up and down excitedly, as if he had strayed into the melon field. Now, he turned a blind eye to the gold, silver and jewels in the room, and just stared at the two Buddha statues while flowing Halazi doubted his life, "Why? Why? Why should we give them the treasure we have worked so hard to make? Mr. Ning, why don't you... ship it back? And then bring it back after a while?"

Ning Xiuyuan shook his head with his hands behind his back, shamelessly, "I'm just an emperor teacher. I don't have that much face...but..."

Cen Yan leaned forward in two or three steps, like a dog's leg, "But what?"

"However, after handing it over to the government, I can get more rewards for you. Try to make up for the loss you suffered through life and death."

Master Ning’s promise does not need to be in black and white to be convincing. Cen Yan smiled at the moment, and the wealth that was delivered to his hands in an open and honest way is more comfortable than trying to hide it secretly. After thinking about it, he reminded, "Then ... Can you not reward those items with the 'Imperial Citation' mark, but reward gold and silver, which can be bought and sold, it is convenient!"

After finishing speaking, he was hit on the head, Ji Wuyan stood behind him, and slapped him with a little force, which made him jump up with a groan, turned around and saw his girl with a stern face, and immediately made a face , The flags and drums died down, after all, they were honestly going to move those gold and silver treasures on the ground.

As Cen Yan moved around, the depression in his heart gradually disappeared.Even without these two golden statues, those gold, silver and jewels hidden in the corners of the sculptures are still very valuable, not to mention marrying a wife, even a group of wives and concubines is enough... But, he dare not.

It was a carriage when it came, and when it was time to move it, Xi Yu thought about riding a horse faster, but Cen Yan firmly believed that there were countless treasures in the dark room, so he changed the fast horse into a much slower carriage, so he waited in the yard Outside are two carriages.

Almost full.

Taoism has accumulated quite a lot of savings over the years. Even so, apart from the two Buddha statues, there are still a lot of jewels and jade in the dark room, which cannot be taken away or moved.Except for the injured Ji Wuyan, everyone participated in it, and even Ning Xiuyuan took part in a symbolic way.

Seeing that the hour was about the same, Cen Yan was still thinking about whether to go back to bring the carriage, but Xi Yu hit his head with a scabbard. This time it hurt much more than Ji Wuyan slapped him, and his mind was buzzing Yes, Cen Yan scolded with a ferocious face, "What are you doing?!"

"Fool!" Xi Yu really wanted to knock his head open to see what's inside, "Let's not talk about how much commotion here is, just how many people are staring at this back mountain, just thinking about catching a few remnants and going back to ask for some rewards , you don’t want to accept it as soon as you see it, and wait for these to be confiscated!”

The most painful thing in the world is to see the treasure that you have already got into other people's pockets, like a roasted duck that has been sprinkled with seasonings, smells delicious and salivates, and is suddenly snatched away.

After all, Cen Yan went back honestly for the treasure he got.

On the way back, he happened to meet the officers and soldiers who came up the mountain listening to the commotion. Ning Xiuyuan showed his face. No matter how suspicious the other party was, he politely watched the two heavy-looking carriages leave.

After all, the official position is there.

……

That day, near dinner time.

Two horse-drawn carriages dragged a two-person golden statue of Buddha into the east gate, escorted officers and soldiers had already been arranged along the way, and they were transported into the palace in such a majestic manner.On the carriage, sharp-eyed commoners took advantage of the wind to blow the curtain to see the dazzling and extravagant light.

It was a car full of babies!

Not long after that, gossip from all sides flew into the streets and alleys of Yanjing City like pieces of paper.

The celestial master of the Taoist religion turned out to be a traitor who believed in the "King of Yama". He had been dormant in the back mountain for many years just to confuse people's hearts. Emperor Master Ning killed the bandits' dens in one fell swoop, and handed over all the ill-gotten wealth hidden by the Taoist religion. the treasury.His Majesty was overjoyed, and rewarded Master Ning and his subordinates.

I heard that this incident should also be attributed to Miss Ji of Fengchenju. Miss Ji went out to play and climb the mountain, and saw the man in black robe who was doing strange things in the woods of the back mountain, so she sent her own servant to find Mrs. Ning, and Miss Ji herself But he was accidentally injured while following the man in black... Fortunately, Master Ning arrived in time.

For this, His Majesty also gave a big reward, box after box of precious medicinal materials were sent to the eastern suburbs, as well as high-quality silk and satin, jade antiques, jewelry and jade.

Even, His Majesty the Emperor directly wrote a plaque of "Women and Beauty", affixed His Majesty's private seal, sent it over, and passed on a Taoist order - no need to enter the palace to thank you, let's take care of your wounds.

Today His Majesty likes to give plaques.

But even so, this honor is still beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Ji Wuyan's voice suddenly rose. Speaking of Ji Wuyan, it was no longer the Wuyan girl who lives in the world, but just, Miss Ji.

The news spread that the storyteller of the tea house and restaurant started to revise tomorrow's manuscript overnight. He was still tirelessly counting the interesting things about the time when the third master of the Ning family opened his crotch pants, but now he can't wait to fly to Jiangnan to search Ji Wuyan's life and past... …

In this regard, those who don't know the inside story count the gossip and watch the excitement.

And the few people who knew more or less the whole story of Ji Wuyan's injury were all silent...

For example, in the Prince's Mansion of Pingyang County, Li Yiwei leaned on the back of his chair and asked the attendants, "Ning Xiuyuan is still in the palace?"
