Yun Shengsheng naturally had no objection, and even suggested, "People are most sleepy in the latter half of the night, and their guard is at its lowest."

Yan Shijin narrowed his eyes: "Then let's set it for early morning (3-5 AM), what do you think?"

Yun Shengsheng thought for a moment, then said, "The beginning of Yin Shi (寅时初) is three o'clock at night."

"I think it's a good idea!"

The two discussed some details, then had dinner, and afterwards went to their respective rooms to wash up and rest.

In the latter half of the night, around 3 AM, the group changed into their night clothes and silently climbed out of the restaurant window.

Yun Shengsheng led the way, easily finding her way into the Grand Princess's residence.

She had visited this mansion before.

She knew exactly where the warehouse was, where the secret room was, and where people had been imprisoned.

Moreover, she also had a holographic map given to her by Little Dumpling, which showed the distribution of guards, making her safer than at home.

Upon entering the mansion, Yun Shengsheng helped point out the way, while Yan Shijin and his men went to deal with Ji Mingyao and her guards.

Wu Xia kept watch from a high vantage point, observing any movement.

Yun Shengsheng headed straight for the secret room she had discovered last time.

She's going to buy everything for free today, and nobody can stop her.

The secret room had its mechanisms changed, but it was no match for her at all.

Those chain locks, trapdoors, and hidden crossbows were like toys to Yun Shengsheng.

She quickly deciphered the mechanism and entered the secret chamber.

It was filled with jewelry, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, rare medicinal herbs, and gold and silver ingots.

She didn't even bother to look at them, and with a wave of her hand, she put them all into her spatial storage.

In the blink of an eye, the entire secret room was empty, not even a single piece of paper was left behind.

After leaving the secret room, she found herself in the same room where Wenren Jue had been imprisoned last time.

The room remained unchanged.

She and Yun Qiaoqiao had come here once before, but only brought some trinkets. This time was different. The first thing she noticed when she went in was the large bronze mirror inlaid with gemstones.

Although the bronze mirror is no longer needed, the gemstones and carvings inlaid on it are priceless.

Without saying a word, she threw the bronze mirror into her spatial storage, and then with a wave of her hand, she cleaned up all the furniture, decorations, and even a wooden stump in the corner of the room.

In an instant, the room became so empty that you could hear the wind.

Next, Yun Shengsheng ransacked the Grand Princess's mansion, including the main storeroom, the small storeroom, the kitchen, the study, and even the stables.

She took everything that she could carry away.

She also discovered that Ji Mingyao was actually keeping five young men in her mansion, and all five of them bore the mark of Wenren Jue, which was utterly outrageous.

The place where the five of them lived was also extremely luxurious, which shows that Ji Mingyao doted on them very much.

Yun Shengsheng felt disgusted, feeling that her fourth sister's man had been insulted.

But she couldn't bring herself to kill these men, since they weren't the ones who were truly responsible.

Finally, she drugged the five people, made them lie on the ground, and then put all their belongings into her spatial storage, leaving not even a single curtain behind.

Seeing that there was nowhere else to put the items, Yun Shengsheng went to meet up with Yan Shijin and the others.

When Ji Mingyao was captured by Yan Shijin's men, she was having sex with two men.

Her hair was disheveled, and she was completely naked.

Yan Shijin narrowed his eyes, and Mo Ning quickly knocked the two men unconscious and threw the blanket onto Ji Mingyao.

Ji Mingyao was, after all, the Grand Princess. Although she was captured, she was still able to maintain a certain composure on her face.

She stared coldly at Yan Shijin, trying to remember who he was.

She couldn't possibly forget such a stunningly handsome young man.

Still unable to remember, she asked, "Who are you!"

"Why are you arresting me!"

Yan Shijin was too lazy to waste words with her, so he raised his hand.

Mo Ning stepped forward and brought his sword down with a swift motion.

Soon, Ji Mingyao and the two men died at the same time.

When Yun Shengsheng arrived, she only saw three corpses.

Yun Shengsheng felt very pleased, and then she urged Yan Shijin to go out first, as she needed to find something.

Yan Shijin glanced at her with amusement, then led his men out first.

Yun Shengsheng looked around Ji Mingyao's bedroom with shining eyes.

To be honest, this woman kept all the best things in her room. Wenren Jue's room couldn't compare at all.

Yun Shengsheng even doubted whether the emperor's palace in Yelang Kingdom could compare to this place.

The entire screen was carved from jade, the silk curtains were worth a fortune, and there were also fire corals, glass beads, and luminous cups presented as tribute from various countries...

Any one of these items would be enough to make high-ranking officials and nobles fight over it.

With a cheerful wave of her hand, everything in the entire bedchamber went into her spatial dimension, leaving only three cold corpses.

When Yun Shengsheng and the others left the Grand Princess's residence, the once extremely luxurious mansion had become an empty shell.

It can be said that apart from a few tattered clothes remaining in the servants' quarters, there wasn't even a blade of grass left in the rest of the place.

Even the artificial rocks and precious flowers and plants in the back garden were completely looted by Yun Shengsheng.

The sky was already beginning to lighten with the first hint of dawn.

Yun Shengsheng and his companions did not return to the restaurant, but instead drove their carriage directly to the city gate.

As soon as the city gates opened, they mingled with the first wave of people leaving the city and sped away.

They traveled for two days straight and finally stopped in a small town near the border of the Great Xuan Kingdom.

Yun Shengsheng and Yan Shijin disguised themselves as an ordinary young master and lady from a wealthy family and went to a fairly lively restaurant for a meal.

The people at the next table were having a lively conversation.

"Have you heard? The royal family and court officials of the Great Xuan Kingdom especially love our Mingyuan tea."

"How come I haven't heard of it! Everyone who planted Mingyuan tea this year has made a fortune. The income from one mu of tea field is equivalent to that of ten mu of grain field in the past."

"Really? Then next year I'll convert all the land in my yard to grow Mingyuan tea."

"That's what I'm planning too. Growing tea is a quick way to make money, so why would anyone bother growing rice? You work yourself to death and barely earn a few copper coins."

Yun Shengsheng's eyes flickered, and she quietly leaned closer to Yan Shijin, asking in a low voice, "Huh? How come I didn't know about this?"

"Mingyuan tea? Never heard of it!"
