Chapter 185 There is an unexpected gain!
Hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain were found in the cellar under the room where Shen Ruyi lived. This incident shocked everyone.
Shen Ruyi smiled and said: "Oh, our little Shen Xiu'er is not too young, but he is full of energy. Look at what the little guy has done!"
The little girl couldn't help blushing, and hid her little face behind Wei Dazhuang with a smile.
Wei Dazhuang smiled and said, "I said I would take our Xiu'er to a feast. Today, Uncle Dazhuang has done a great deed by taking Xiu'er to a feast. Let's go buy some food and have your mother cook it. We will have a good feast tonight."
Qin Jinan laughed: "Hahaha! Well, Dazhuang, you and Xiao Shenxiu have both made contributions. I will reward you with a good meal tonight. Jiusheng, go and inform the imperial chef to arrange a table tonight. I will treat everyone!"
Jiusheng was happy: "It's Your Highness!"
Everyone in the government office was overjoyed, and Shen Ruyi was also very happy. She was secretly proud of herself because she had succeeded in replacing one thing with another!
This morning, Qin Beiyu was going to move the grain out of the warehouse. It happened that the Ghost Six Gang had their horse-drawn carriages ready, so he started transporting the grain to the capital. The grain could not be kept here and had to be turned in to the national treasury!
Shen Ruyi could no longer live in this room, so there was no choice but to find her another place to live.
They could only move her and her father to the main courtyard of the government office. Tonight Wei Zhendong would bring his daughter, Wei Chuang, Wei Dazhuang and others to live there!
At noon, Shen Ruyi moved there, and Madam Cao and her daughter also moved there.
Qin Beiyu was directing the transportation of food out. All the cabinets in the entire wing were dismantled, and even the door was opened. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to carry the food out!
Prince Qin Jinan looked at the food being carried out bag by bag, and he smiled: "The national treasury does not have much food to begin with, and now Bei Yu and I have seized so much food here. When we return, His Majesty will be proud!"
Jiusheng was also happy: "Yes! Your Highness, you are a blessed person. You have made great achievements as soon as you came out!
There is a letter from our Crown Princess. It was just delivered. I didn’t tell you because I saw you were busy…”
Crown Prince Qin Jinan!!!
"My beloved concubine wrote to me? Haha, she just doesn't trust me, really... Alas!"
Jiusheng couldn't help laughing when he saw his prince striding into the house with the letter in his hand...
There was so much grain that it took an entire afternoon to move it all. An estimated half of it was still to be moved, so nearly 200,000 kilograms of grain had already been moved.
Qin Beiyu and his father, the prince, were both very excited. This was truly a great achievement!
In the evening, in the side courtyard, Crown Prince Qin Jinan brought people to the main hall of the government office and held a banquet to entertain today's meritorious officials!
Crown Prince Qin Jinan and his son sat at a table, with Shen Ruyi and his father Wei Zhendong sitting below them, and Madam Cao and her daughter further down, and opposite them were Wei Chuang, Wei Dazhuang, Qian Qing Wanqing and others.
Crown Prince Qin Jinan asked Jiusheng to go for dinner, but Jiusheng shook his head and refused to go. He insisted on waiting until his prince finished eating before he could eat. This was his insistence!
This is also his habit. He always has to protect His Highness when he is eating. Moreover, when he is eating, there must be more than two secret guards to protect his Highness!
Tonight, Prince Qin Jinan was in a particularly good mood. His son poured him wine and helped him pick up some food.
He smiled at Wei Zhendong and Shen Ruyi and said, "I am very happy today. We have seized so much food. This is a great thing for our Great Qin!"
Wei Zhendong nodded: "Yes! This is indeed a good thing!
It is possible that the people from the Ghost Six Gang would come back for these foods!
If these grains were stored in years of famine, they would be valuable.
I have been searching the government office for a whole day today, but I have found nothing. Let us look for it again in the next two days!
This amount of grain is indeed not small. If they exchange the money they earn for grain, then it makes sense. This amount of grain cannot be bought with just one or two coins."
Prince Qin Jinan said with a smile: "In the next two days, officials from the Ministry of Personnel will probably be here. Zhendong, you will take over from them then.
"Beiyu should be finished as soon as possible, and then the wing rooms here should be repaired, so Ruyi can move back. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient for Ruyi to live there when the new prefect comes in!"
Shen Ruyi smiled and said, "Okay! Either I live near my father, or I live near my uncle. Anyway, it won't be inconvenient for me!"
Shen Ruyi's mouth was greasy from eating so much, and Wei Zhendong was still picking fish bones for his daughter: "Ruyi, eat slowly, what if you get stuck?"
Wei Dazhuang said with a smile: "My Lord, our little princess is already sixteen years old. She will get married tomorrow. As her father-in-law, you will have to go and serve her dinner. It's really interesting, hahaha!"
Crown Prince Qin Jinan: "Hahahaha... tomorrow when Ruyi marries Beiyu, the Crown Princess and I will take care of Ruyi!"
Shen Ruyi blushed: "Hey, why are you talking like that? I won't pay attention to you!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Qin Beiyu also laughed. He looked at the delicate look of the little girl and thought she was cute.
He liked her pampered look, he was willing to pamper her and spoil her... She should be pampered all her life!
Everyone was talking and laughing. After they had finished their meal, Shen Ruyi, Madam Cao, and Xiao Xiuer left the table first. When the women left, the men started drinking...
At night, Shen Ruyi lived next door to her father. No one knew who lived in this room before, but it was cleaned by Madam Cao. The sheets and quilts were all Shen Ruyi's own. She felt very comfortable sleeping in her own bed!
Shen Ruyi was about to fall asleep when she suddenly felt something was wrong. She heard a sound that sounded like a mouse!
Although Shen Ruyi is fearless, she instinctively resists mice carrying the virus!
She sat up with a flutter, took out the electric baton from under the pillow, lit the oil lamp and looked around the room, but didn't see any mice!
I took out a flashlight and shone it around the room, but still saw nothing. What was going on?
But she clearly heard the sound of the mouse again!
If you listen carefully, you will find that the sound is coming from the northwest corner of the room. There is only a small table there.
Shen Ruyi shone the flashlight on the small table. It was a shabby table with some pens, ink, paper and inkstone on it. There were only four legs underneath and nothing else!
Shen Ruyi thought about it, could this be the master's room? Otherwise, where would there be so many writing brushes, inkstones, and paper?
Squeak, squeak, squeak…squeak, squeak…
Shen Ruyi felt something was wrong. There must be something wrong here. Could there be a mouse underneath? What if it crawled out and jumped onto the bed?
Shen Ruyi's hair stood on end! She was scared. After thinking for a while, Shen Ruyi left the room. As soon as she opened the door, she heard Wei Dazhuang's voice.
"Ruyi? Why did you come out, little county lady?"
Shen Ruyi felt warm in her heart instantly. She slept next to her father. Uncle Dazhuang and Uncle Wei Chuang would definitely keep watch over her and her father at night!
"Uncle Dazhuang, I'm scared! I heard the sound of mice. I want to ask my dad to take a look."
Wei Dazhuang quickly jumped up from a reclining chair in the corridor!
He rushed over to look at Shen Ruyi in the cloak, and looked around with vigilant eyes: "Don't be afraid, Uncle Dazhuang will call your dad!"
This is ancient times. Wei Dazhuang is an uncle. It is not convenient for him to go to his niece's room alone at night, so he went to call Wei Zhendong. Wei Zhendong also heard the noise outside, so he put on his clothes and came out.
"My Lord, Ruyi said there was a mouse in her room, and she could hear the noise!"
Wei Zhendong drank alcohol at night and said angrily: "Damn it, we have found the granary, and this rat is so hungry that he has nowhere to go, and he still comes to scare my daughter!
Ruyi! Go to Daddy's room and wait. Daddy and your uncle Dazhuang will kill the rat!"
Shen Ruyi shook her head: "No, Daddy, I want to go with you and tell you where the noise came from. I'm worried that there is a cellar in my room, and I don't dare to dig it up, for fear that rats will bite me!"
Wei Zhendong raised his eyebrows: "There is also a cellar, haha! Interesting... Let's go!"
Shen Ruyi came in with her father. She pointed at the broken table and said, "Dad, I heard some noises here. I suspect there is a cellar underneath!"
Wei Dazhuang gritted his teeth and said, "No way? Wherever our little county lady lives, there must be a cellar there?"
Wei Dazhuang went over and moved the small table away, and there was nothing on the ground except the floor!
He knocked on one floor twice, then knocked on another floor a few more times, but when he knocked on the third floor, he heard a hollow sound!
Wei Zhendong and Wei Dazhuang looked at each other. It was obvious that there was no one underneath. Wei Zhendong said, "Dazhuang, wake up Wei Chuang and get two people to bring weapons over!
Ruyi, please stand aside, just behind Daddy!"
Soon Wei Chuang rushed in with four or five Wei family soldiers. Wei Chuang took a shovel and someone else took a spade and started prying the floor. He pried it open in two strokes!
After prying it open, I found a handle underneath that was the same as the one in the closet in the side yard.
Wei Chuang and Wei Dazhuang looked at each other, then looked up at Wei Zhendong. Wei Zhendong nodded. Wei Chuang pushed Wei Dazhuang, and Wei Dazhuang stood up to protect Wei Zhendong and his daughter!
Wei Chuang leaned sideways, then reached out and pulled the handle open!
Whoosh whoosh!
Three arrows were shot at the ceiling at once, and pierced into it with a bang. If they had been shot at a person, the force would have pierced through the person!
Shen Ruyi screamed in fright: Ahhhh!
Click!
A crack appeared on the wall opposite Wei Chuang, and then a door slowly moved open!
Shen Ruyi hid behind her father, nervously grabbing her father's robe and sticking her head out.
Wei Chuang got up and knocked on the door with a shovel, but there was no sound. A soldier of the Wei family threw a shovel into the door again, and it made a few clanging sounds, as if it rolled down.
Wei Dazhuang threw another shovel, and the same sound was heard again. Wei Zhendong nodded and said, "It's okay. Let's go down and have a look. Everyone has a torch. Be careful!"
Wei Dazhuang and Wei Chuang went down with a few people. Soon Wei Dazhuang came up and bared his big teeth: "Duke, there is an unexpected gain!"
