Chapter 351: Emptying Their Treasury
Judging from the noise, the imperial guards patrolling outside just passed by.
Shen Li quickly led everyone to the space above the three tables where people were drinking and playing cards, stood in front of the mist, and raised his arm towards the people at the first table.
She had a crossbow tied to her wrist, and poisonous needles suddenly flew out from her sleeves and pierced into the scalp of the person facing them.
The man was stunned for a moment, his scalp hurt slightly, and then he felt nothing again.
He picked up the wine glass and was about to speak when he suddenly fell asleep on the table.
The others laughed, "You're still trying to compete with me with your drinking capacity, wait and see..."
Before he could finish his words, the man also fell on the table.
The same was true for the others. In just a few moments, the six people at the first table all fell asleep on the table.
The other tables were not too far away, and the people at the other tables had already finished their drinks, so they didn't notice what was happening here at all.
Shen Li quickly knocked down all the people drinking at the other two tables.
The people at the table chatting seemed to have heard the noise and tilted their heads to look over. "These guys, they drank too much tonight. They're so drunk after just a few drinks. I'll have to laugh at them when I wake up tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, two people at the table fell down.
The remaining four nudged the other two in confusion, "Hey, hey, what's going on? Can you get drunk just by smelling the alcohol?"
In the blink of an eye, two more were knocked down.
The other two finally realized that something was wrong. Just as they were about to shout, they felt a sharp pain in their throats and fell onto the table before they could even blink.
Only the sleeping and patrolling ones were left.
Shen Li came to the patrol team without saying a word and shot poison needles at the lazy people one by one. With a plop, all six people fell to the ground.
The person sleeping at the table didn't even wake up. He slept so soundly that he didn't move at all until he was laid down.
Shen Li quickly brought everyone out of the space and gestured to the location of the silk. She then re-entered the space and came to the sky outside the warehouse to be on guard.
After a while, a meow was heard in the warehouse.
This is the code, at least close it.
Shen Li rose to a high place and looked around, but he couldn't even see the tail of the patrolling party.
It was late at night and it was winter, so the weather was unusually cold. No one would go to such a sensitive place as Neiku at this time.
She flashed into the warehouse and saw two big circles inside.
Shen Li walked to the thing that her uncle was holding tightly, and signaled her uncle to let go. She then held the seams on both sides tightly. With a thought, whoosh, everything that was held together by her and the silk disappeared.
Fang Yao: ...
Guan Yonghou: ...
Fang Jitao: ...
Shen Li entered the space and quickly pressed the red button.
Suddenly a strong wind blew, and Shen Li was sucked into the corridor and fell into her dormitory.
She put down the boxes of gold and silver she had brought in, then pressed the red button in the dormitory. In the blink of an eye, she was thrown back into the space.
Without time to say anything, Shen Li flashed out of the space.
In the warehouse, Fang Jitao was holding another circle tightly, waiting for Shen Li to arrive.
Shen Li hurried over to take over. At this time, Fang Yao and Guan Yonghou had already formed another circle.
The circle they formed was getting bigger and bigger. Shen Li went in and out, sweating profusely in the cold weather.
More than an hour passed quietly, and as they watched the inner warehouse being slowly emptied, the hearts of several people fell back into their stomachs.
Shen Li once again let them witness the magic of instant teleportation today. Everyone's opinion of Shen Li can no longer be described as admiration, but only looking up to her.
The warehouse was finally emptied. Shen Li did not delay at all and quickly pulled them into the space.
As soon as they entered, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Huh?" Fang Jitao opened his mouth wide in surprise, "Cousin, where did you hide all those things?"
The inside was still the same as before they left, and the shelves were devoid of the things they had just moved in. It was truly eerie.
"Did you leave any Beidi things in the library just now?" Fang Yao asked, remembering it.
"I kept it," said the Marquis of Guanyong. "Look at my armor. I scraped off a piece of armor on my sleeve and left it beside the frame."
Fang Jitao also said, "I also dug two holes in the roof."
Fang Yao said, "That's good, that's it. Just leave a little trace, and let them think of the rest as they please."
Guan Yonghou laughed and said, "What else can I think? My wife and son have been kidnapped, and the treasure must have been stolen by the Northern Di people, hahahaha."
When he laughed, Fang Yao and Fang Jitao also burst into laughter.
The tense atmosphere in the warehouse just now disappeared.
"Cousin, where did you hide the things? Is there something else hidden in this cage of yours?"
Shen Li smiled and replied, "There's no room here, so I put everything somewhere else."
Fang Jitao suddenly realized, "Oh, that's right. After all, my cousin can teleport instantly. She'll have enough time to move the things back home."
Fang Yao looked at Shen Li strangely, and suddenly an idea flashed through his mind.
Is this his sister's daughter?
Guan Yonghou was standing in front of the mist and suddenly called out, "Come quickly, come quickly, look, is that their imperial concubine?"
Several people hurried over, and sure enough, outside, several eunuchs were carrying a beautiful woman on a sedan chair out of the emperor's palace.
"What's going on? Why are they kicking people out in the middle of the night?" Fang Jitao muttered in confusion.
Shen Li suddenly recalled the scenes in Qing Dynasty palace dramas, where concubines were not allowed to live in the emperor's bedroom after serving him. Could it be the same for the Western Qiang?
Sure enough, I heard Guan Yonghou say, "You haven't even grown all your hair yet, what do you know? That's..."
He suddenly remembered that Shen Li was still there, and quickly changed his words, "She finished washing the emperor's feet and it was time for her to go back to her own place to sleep."
"Washing feet?" Fang Jitao tutted his tongue and said, "This Western Qiang Emperor is really not a good person. He has a foot-washing maid and he's treating her so luxuriously, with a sedan chair and hair full of pearls and jade. Ugh."
Turning to see Shen Li, he hesitated and said, "Cousin, this woman is a foot-washing maid, not a favored one. Even if you arrest her, she won't be able to scare her. Why don't you think about who to arrest?"
Yes.
Shen Li also suddenly felt that arresting only a few women and children was not cruel enough.
But who should I arrest?
She thought of the third prince Xiao Shuze and the second prince of Xiqiang who was manipulating the third prince behind the scenes.
It is said that after the Western Qiang learned that Xiao Shuze had committed suicide, they wanted to attack the Great Zhou to avenge him.
If it weren't for the sudden incident of Miergan, the war might have really broken out.
By that time, my cousin and uncle might have to go to the battlefield.
After all, the Fang family army has always been guarding the border of Western Qiang. If there is any negligence here, how can my uncle stay in the capital with peace of mind?
"The Second Prince of Xiqiang..." Shen Li pondered the wording for a moment. "My Lord and Uncle know that he paved the way for the Third Prince and even supported regicide, nearly overthrowing the Great Zhou. Can we take him away?"
