On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1679: Empty!

Xiao Chiye handed over the confessions obtained from various banks to Huo Changhe.

Huo Changhe looked around and found that it was the same as what he said. When he asked who came to deposit the money, their descriptions were almost the same.

Wearing a black cloak and a mask with a white spot on the chin.

Huo Changhe nodded and handed the confession back to Xiao Chiye: "Put it on file."

Xiao Chiye clenched his lips and said, "Your Majesty, about Constable Liu..."

"Let's stop here for now," Huo Changhe asked, "How is the pharmacy where Li Qi works?"

Xiao Chiye was annoyed: "I was a step too late, and the place was already empty."

Huo Changhe was not surprised: "I guess they were already making preparations when Li Qi was thrown out."

Among the people and goods entering and leaving the customs during this period, medicinal materials account for the largest proportion.

Therefore, the inspection is very loose and there is no way to start the inspection at all.

This means it can't be found.

Huo Changhe remained silent, his anger rising.

Since being exiled, he and Yan Ruyu have been together through thick and thin, sharing the same enemy. It has always been them who let others suffer losses, and they have never suffered a serious setback.

What's more, exile was the order of the court and he could not disobey it.

This time, since Military Doctor Cao stepped into Shencheng, everyone, including himself, has been restricted everywhere.

It has never been like this before.

There was also the dead Mu Wu, the seriously injured Su Wen and Quan Dao, Feng Shao with broken ribs, and the three secret guards who had lost contact.

Such a loss is too serious.

Huo Changhe secretly swore in his heart that he would never give up until he found out the person behind the scenes.

……

Yan Ruyu returned to the mansion and reunited with the abbot and Beibei. Seeing that they were both fine, she felt relieved.

Yin Ding brought people to monitor Lanxing Pavilion and investigate the origin of Lanxing Pavilion. It had been silent before, but this time it suddenly appeared in Yan Ruyu's sight.

Beibei was so moved that she was a little scared now. Fortunately, Yan Ruyu saved her. If she had come a step later, she would have been hit by that kind of whip...

Yan Ruyu asked, "What did you see when you went to the right courtyard? They are determined to kill you."

Beibei swallowed and said, "Actually, I didn't see it very clearly. I just looked out the window and it looked like there was a pool of water in the room."

The abbot wondered: "There's a pool in the room?" Is it an indoor swimming pool?

"Yes, I was also very surprised. At first I thought I was seeing things. Some wealthy families have bathing pools in their bathrooms. I know this, but that pool is quite large, not like an ordinary one for bathing."

"And it looked quite deep. There was someone inside, with only the top of his head sticking out."

Whose bathtub is so deep? What if someone slips and drowns?

Yan Ruyu frowned: "Did you see anyone inside?"

"Yes, there was more than one," Beibei recalled, "I saw at least three."

He thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there are three of them, but they all have their backs facing me. I can only see the backs of their heads."

"It was dark, quiet, and silent," Beibei lowered her voice involuntarily. "The scene was so strange that I got startled and didn't pay attention to where I was standing. That's when they found me."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been caught.

Yan Ruyu thought thoughtfully: "It seems that this Lanxing Pavilion is indeed unusual."

"It's getting late, go back and rest."

The abbot and Beibei left.

Yan Ruyu returned to her room. She was very tired after working so hard for so long. She didn't take a close look at the things in the space. She had put them all away anyway and could take a look at them slowly.

She also fell into a deep sleep.

They slept, but no one in Lanxing Pavilion slept all night.

The fire brigade and Cui Chong took turns asking questions and investigating, making the place chaotic and noisy.

The madam and Erya were exhausted from dealing with this and that, but they couldn't get angry. They had a conflict with the government officials and became enemies with them. From then on, there was no hope for peace in their business.

After finally making it to dawn, all the other shops on the street opened, the street food stalls were filled with people, and the people from the yamen finally left.

Go home directly to catch up on your sleep, and the people on duty will start their shift.

The madam was in a state of exhaustion, and Erya looked haggard. They went up to the fourth floor together and prepared to return to their room to rest.

The madam pushed open the door, yawned, and tears welled up in her eyes. The next moment, her mouth opened wide, and she couldn't close it. She didn't have time to wipe away her tears and stared at the empty house with wide eyes.

This room is truly empty, there is nothing in it - I'm not just describing it, there really is nothing in it.

Tables, chairs, beds, calligraphy and paintings, quilts and clothes, everything that was there before is gone now!

How is this going?

She left the room in a trance.

Trying to convince myself that I was in the wrong room.

When I came back, I met Erya who was also coming out in the corridor.

The two looked at each other, neither of them spoke, but stood for a moment and walked towards each other's rooms.

Standing at the door of the house, closing your eyes slightly.

Both of them have the same room.

The madam suddenly remembered, walked to another room and pushed the door.

Same, empty.

There was nothing left except the doors and windows.

All gone!

The madam ran back to her room like crazy again, hoping against hope and opened the mechanism.

Empty.

Even the secret compartments and dark rooms were not spared.

Erya's anger permeated every word: "What's going on!"

The madam gnashed her teeth and bled with pain.

That contained all her savings over the years, which she had saved bit by bit and taken out from the account bit by bit.

Of course, there is also money earned from shady businesses.

However, she certainly could not admit that her business was not good. As long as someone was doing it and could make money, it was reasonable.

She has always thought so.

But now, she couldn't help but wonder if this was retribution.

Otherwise, how come there are no jumps left?

It was a little dark in front of my eyes, and the world seemed to be spinning.

His body went limp and he fell to the ground, fainting.

Erya was furious. Money was one thing, but more importantly, there were those books!

It recorded the date, number of people and address in detail. It was originally submitted to the superiors every month, but it was she who suggested that it be changed to quarterly submission.

Her superior also agreed, but reminded her to ensure safety.

No information can be leaked.

But now, there is not a single copy left.

How would she explain this to her superiors?

If they can't explain themselves, there's a high chance that the news will leak out. Now it seems that those in the right courtyard have to be relocated.

Thinking of this, Erya didn't dare to faint even though she wanted to. She bit the tip of her tongue, and the sharp pain accompanied by the smell of blood made her clear her mind.

I wanted to throw water on the madam to wake her up, but there was no water available.

She walked over and kicked the madam with some strength in her foot.

"Don't faint."

The madam was awakened by the pain and lay on the ground looking at her: "What should we do now?"

Erya was furious: "How should I know? Get up quickly and move the right courtyard first."

The madam was also annoyed: "Didn't you say that if you move now, you're afraid of being targeted?"

"The booklet is missing, and the news may have leaked out. If we don't transfer it, none of us will survive!"

Upon hearing this, the madam jumped up.
