When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy
Chapter 106: On a dark and windy day, robbing the rich in Beijing
Chapter 106: On a dark and windy day, robbing the rich in Beijing
It was a dark and windy night.
The thick wall of the imperial city was hooked tightly by an eagle claw-shaped iron hook thrown up from below, and then the black shadow easily climbed up along the rope below.
When she arrived in the city, Gu Hua took out the map of the imperial city given by her subordinates. It had already marked several places she wanted to go. She pointed to the location of the princess's mansion and said, "Let's start with you!"
Under the cover of darkness, the black shadow shuttled across the rooftops of the capital city and soon flew into a luxurious mansion.
Taking advantage of the time when the guards were changing shifts, Gu Hua first went to the storehouse of the princess's mansion and took out all the valuables inside.
The silver bills and treasury hidden by Xiao Qingzhi were not spared either.
Gu Hua originally wanted to rob the princess of everything, leaving her nothing even without a urine bucket made of gold or silver.
But today she had to rob a lot of places, time was tight and the task was heavy. After emptying all the warehouses in the princess's mansion that contained gold, silver and valuables, Gu Hua rushed towards the palace.
The palace is heavily guarded, but this is not a problem for Gu Hua, who had experienced surviving the apocalypse by hiding and moving among piles of zombies.
Then Emperor Xiao Junlin’s small treasury was gone.
Then the Wenchang Marquis Mansion in the capital, and the home of Zheng Yongquan, who proposed to forcibly collect a large amount of money before issuing overseas trade licenses to wealthy businessmen, were also visited.
Seeing that it was early, Gu Hua also visited the residences of several black-hearted officials that Mu Yu had investigated. "Oh my god! Fortunately, I have enough space, otherwise I really can't fit them all in."
Before leaving the capital, Gu Hua came to a remote and ordinary house in the south of the city.
"Who?!"
Because Gu Hua did not land quietly, the people who were not asleep in the room immediately heard the noise.
"I."
"Creaky." The door was opened from the inside and Mu Yu walked out wearing clothes.
"Master, what do you want so late at night?"
"Here is a sum of money. You keep 20,000 taels and continue to lead people to collect intelligence." Gu Hua was led into the living room by Mu Yu. Without any politeness, he said directly: "In addition, these banknotes are sent to Su Fuying for overseas trade with the Chen family in Jiangzhou City."
"Here is a letter I wrote. Please give it to Su Fuying. He will know what to do next."
Mu Yu bowed and said, "I obey your command."
In order to avoid being discovered, I hurried back as soon as possible and explained everything.
Gu Hua just walked away with the countless gold, silver, jewelry and money he had looted.
The exile team traveled fifty miles a day. It didn't take Gu Hua long to get back to the post station on horseback. He returned the horse to Mu Feng, and after a brief conversation, he walked towards the post station.
Just when they were not far from the post station, Gu Hua paused, slowed down his steps and hid in the dark.
They watched quietly as several dark shadows poured oil on the firewood that had been placed at the door of the room where they lived.
"If we set fire like this, not only will the people in these rooms be burned to death, but people in other rooms will probably be harmed as well."
Gu Hua listened indifferently to a man dressed as a yamen runner talking in a low voice to another.
"I don't want to implicate innocent people, but we all know her character. If we fail to complete the task she assigned us, I'm afraid we will be the ones to die."
Just as the man was about to throw the fire starter in his hand, he was hit in the throat by an ice-blue light that flashed through the darkness.
"Puff." The ice-blue needle shot into the throat and was quickly melted by the hot blood, and drops of blood fell to the dust.
"Who?" The people sent to assassinate looked around in horror, and their voices also alarmed the people in the post station.
Soon, noisy and chaotic sounds were heard in the post station.
Gu Hua watched as the remaining men in black reacted and fled in a hurry, and did not attack again.
"Everyone, gather in the yard." Wang Geng, the chief of the yamen runners escorting the exile team, shouted gloomily. Xia He, who knew that her master had gone out to do something and had not returned yet, suppressed her panic and tried to calm down as she dressed the four sleepy children who had been woken up.
"Mom, where is Mom going..."
"Wuwuwu." Xia He covered her eyes and opened them. When she didn't see Gu Hua, she asked Kang Kang.
"Be good, Kang Kang. Isn't mother here?"
Xia He turned around and looked at Gu Hua who had quietly climbed in through the window in surprise, "Master, you are finally back."
"What are you still hesitating about? Come out quickly, or do you want me to go in and invite you in one by one?" Wang Geng looked at the dead people in the yard, and his anger grew even more intense. "If you don't obey, don't blame me for my ruthless whip."
Gu Hua held the frail fourth child, Lele, in his arms, and held the eldest child, Anan, in his other hand.
Xia He held the second child, Kang Kang, in one hand, and the pouting third child, Huan Huan, with the other.
Although the little girl was dissatisfied with her mother for not hugging her, she was sensible enough not to compete for favor with her brother or make a fuss at this time.
More than a hundred yamen runners holding torches surrounded the yard, and Wang Geng sent a few people to guard it.
"Boss, there are three hundred and sixty-eight people, not less."
"Yeah." Wang Geng responded softly.
Then he looked at the firewood placed at the door of the three rooms where Gu Hua and his family lived, sniffed the air, and sprinkled tung oil, which was easy to burn, on it. He looked at Gu Hua coldly and said, "The sentence of exile says that you have offended a nobleman."
"Yes."
"It seems that person doesn't want to spare you."
Gu Hua raised his eyebrows. It was not up to her to decide whether to forgive her or not.
"What are you going to do along the way?"
Gu Hua knew that Wang Geng asked this question not because he cared about them, but to remind her not to cause trouble for the team or him.
Gu Hua told the truth: "I have no say in this matter."
People want to take revenge on her, what can Gu Hua do?
She said that if she didn't let Princess Qingzhi send people to assassinate him, that person would listen to her. What a joke.
Obviously Wang Geng also knows this truth.
Then he didn't say anything else, just glared at Gu Hua and the others viciously, waved his hand, and let everyone go back to sleep.
The next day, early morning.
The team was called up early, and then with a sharp cry, something went wrong again.
Some people chose to commit suicide because they did not want to leave their hometown and be exiled thousands of miles away.
This happened just after leaving the capital. Wang Geng's face became even gloomier. He ordered people to cut off one of the man's ears and bury him shallowly in a random place. Then he continued on his journey with the exile team.
As for whether the body would be dug out and eaten by wild dogs because it was not buried deep enough, for the escorting officials, as long as there was an ear to prove that the person was dead, the rest was none of their business.
Gu Hua watched the team moving towards the southwest, thinking that there seemed to be a severe drought there starting this morning, and he couldn't help but frowned.
She thought that she would need to store more water in the space next.
When there was no water to drink, not only would the adults suffer, but even the children would not be able to bear it.
"Thank you, cousin. If it weren't for the money you gave us, we would still have to wear the shackles on our feet."
Gu Hua turned around and saw Bai Zhenzhen catching up with him quickly, her tone full of gratitude.
