Song Mingyuan appeared directly in Zhuangzi, fifty miles away from the Song family. With the Escape Pearl, she could come and go freely within a radius of fifty miles, just like strolling in her own back garden.
Living people cannot be accommodated in the space, but living animals can be accommodated. Song Mingyuan visited all the chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep raised on Zhuangzi, as well as the orchards and vegetable fields.
As long as it is edible and usable, no hair will be left on them.
At the entrance of Taifu's Mansion.
Song Panshan and Xu ran out in panic, and with them were the servants who were alarmed.
Outside the mansion, there was a huge crowd of forbidden troops.
Seeing the Tutor's Mansion being surrounded so much that even a fly couldn't fly out, Song Panshan and Mrs. Xu's hearts skipped a beat and they almost collapsed to the ground.
When have they ever seen so many imperial troops dispatched? I'm afraid they haven't even ransacked homes on such a large scale!
In just a few seconds, Song Panshan had thought over all the crimes he had committed since he had been an official for so long.
It ranged from corruption and bribery to shortcomings in moral integrity. The more he thought about it, the more cold sweat formed on his head.
"I wonder why the two adults brought people here to surround the Taifu's mansion late at night? I have been ill recently and have been recuperating in the mansion in accordance with the emperor's order. I dare not slack off a little. During this period, I have not even left the front door of the mansion. There must be something wrong What a misunderstanding."
His tone was slightly trembling, and when he thought that the nightmare he had just had was about to become reality, the panic in his heart became even more intense.
"Taifu Song, there is no need to panic. We have been ordered by the emperor to capture the demon thief. The demon thief has now sneaked into your mansion. You just need to cooperate with us to capture the demon thief."
Catch the demon thief. Catch the demon thief, not him!
Song Panshan was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief as if he had survived the disaster. But before he could let go, he suddenly lifted it up and his eyes widened: "What! Demon Thief?!"
The flesh on his face trembled a few times: "You said that demon thief is in my house now?!"
Song Panshan's expression changed several times. After the initial fear, it soon turned into gnashing of teeth.
He has not forgotten who is the culprit who caused everything he has today. If that monster hadn't stolen all his mansion, why would he have gone to the emperor to ask for help?
If you didn't go to the emperor to ask for help, how could you say the wrong thing in a moment of impatience and make the emperor angry and punish you?
To put it nicely, the emperor sympathized with his subordinates and allowed him to rest at home for half a year. After these six months, there was no place for him in the court!
They all blamed this bastard for stealing all his mansion earlier, causing him to almost lose his official position, but now he still dares to come!
This is really unreasonable!
Song Panshan felt angry.
If you don't give this evildoer some color, you really think that the threshold of their Tutor's Mansion is easy to step on!
"Sir!" Song Panshan changed his face faster than turning the page of a book. In an instant, he looked at the commander of the imperial army with a trusting face, and said sadly: "I only regret that I, a civil servant, don't know how to use my hands and feet, so I can't help in catching the demon thief. I can only leave it to you, I beg you to catch that demon thief!"
He said solemnly and righteously: "That demon thief is a scourge! If it is not eliminated, more people will be brutally murdered by him. Only by catching him as soon as possible can more innocent people be spared from harm!"
"My lord, you may search, but I will not stop you. In such a small place in the house, the evildoer will definitely not be able to hide, but you must not miss the slightest opportunity to let him escape!"
As Song Panshan said this, he asked someone to open the door of the mansion and welcome the imperial army in.
But he stood one step away from the door, waiting for some emergency to run outside.
Unknown things are always scary. So many court officials were stolen, even the palace was no exception, but surprisingly, not even a shadow of the demon thief was seen.
Who knows whether that thing is a human or a ghost.
Just the thought of hiding such a thing in his house made Song Panshan feel very frightened.
"Everyone, you have to search more carefully. Don't miss any corner."
Mrs. Xu didn't dare to go inside, but she thought that her daughter was still in the house. If she was searched by the Imperial Army later, her reputation would be in trouble.
So I had no choice but to summon some nurses and maids to be brave, and walked together towards Song Mingyan's yard.
Song Mingyan didn't know what was happening outside. She was woken up by her personal maid Chun Tang who was sleeping outside. She opened her eyes with an impatient expression.
Before the words of scolding were spoken, his irritated eyes were instantly attracted to the things on the bedside.
Gold...gold? !
She suddenly woke up, her sleepiness gone, and she stared intently at the three ingots piled on the bedside, which felt quite unreal.
These days, because her house was robbed, she didn't even have any private money. It was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it was difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
For Song Mingyan, who is used to spending money lavishly, asking her to scrimp on food and clothing is undoubtedly equivalent to killing her!
After a few days of unsatisfactory days in a row, I was anxious about not being able to get money. I never expected that when I woke up, there were several gold ingots on the bedside!
Song Mingyan reached out and took out a gold ingot, put it in her mouth and bit it.
it is true!
She felt happy.
Could it be that her mother secretly released it for her?
