When the two of them arrived at Tongpan Mansion, it was almost midnight, and there were still lights on in several courtyards.
The boy who was arrested in the afternoon ran away, and Judge Yue Tong became very angry. Several guards in the mansion were beaten.
He was sitting in the study, eating an apple sent by the Chen family. One of the two stunning concubines was massaging his shoulders and the other was beating his legs.
Even so, it couldn't suppress the fire in his heart.
He originally had a share of these good things, but now he had to give them to Chen Mansion so that he could taste them. He was really angry to death.
"Master, it's getting late, let's go and have a rest."
The concubine who was pressing his legs was stroking between his legs with her soft, boneless hands, and her voice was cooing, which made people's hearts melt.
Yue Tongpan pinched her chest hard and pushed her down on the bed with a lewd smile. After a while, the sound of men and women playing music could be heard in the room.
Li Yunze and Ye Yutong, who were hiding in the tree, saw that the lights in every yard were turned off before quietly coming down from the tree.
They first went to the cellar in the front yard that the cook said was guarded by two guards.
Ye Yutong was hiding in the dark, and Li Yunze went over to knock the two out, gagged them, and tied them together with ropes.
There were three locks on the cellar door. Li Yunze used some internal force to open it easily.
He walked in front holding the fire certificate, letting Ye Yutong follow behind him.
Both sides of the cellar were piled with grain, from the ground to the top, leaving a trail in the middle.
While Ye Yutong was collecting grain from space, he scolded Yue Tong for having a bad heart. The hungry people dug wild vegetables and ate grass roots but couldn't buy any grain.
But his family has stockpiled so much just to sell it at a high price in the future. This is sucking the blood of the people!
This kind of person is not worthy of being an official at all. No, you don't deserve to live at all.
The two collected all the grain in the cellar, and Li Yunze took her to the other two warehouses.
Just now, the cellar was full of coarse grains. The two warehouses contained mostly fine grains, as well as a lot of bacon and various dried vegetables.
There was also a row of large vats next to it. Ye Yutong went up and took a look. They were pickled pickles and various sauces.
She was not polite at all and put everything into the space.
Ye Yutong felt that Tongpan Mansion should have more than these two warehouses. What they just collected were ordinary ingredients.
Why are there no such things as bird's nests and supplements that rich families like to eat?
The eldest lady of Tongxuan Mansion is a very naughty person. I heard that the meals will be changed every day.
How could ordinary food fit into her mouth? There must be a special place for expensive ingredients.
She was wondering where to put those things? I saw Li Yunze gently knocking on the wall of the warehouse.
"Ping An, what did you find?"
"Tongtong, this wall is very thick and hollow. There must be something hidden inside."
After hearing this, Ye Yutong took out a flashlight from the space and said excitedly: "Ping An, let's see if there is any mechanism?"
Isn’t that how it’s written in novels? Those rich families have secret rooms in their homes, where gold and silver treasures are stored.
Yue Tongpan is so greedy for money, it is impossible not to hide money in his family.
Li Yunze took the flashlight and searched carefully on the wall. In the innermost corner, he found a brick that was obviously different from the one next to it.
As soon as he took out the brick, an inconspicuous cabinet next to it slowly moved, revealing a narrow door, only big enough for an adult to pass through.
Li Yunze took a flashlight and shined it inside. It was a space more than two meters long, with more than a dozen small wooden boxes placed inside. Each box was very heavy.
He didn't open it and let Ye Yutong take it into the space. Even if something isn't valuable, it should be important if you go to great lengths to hide it here.
Yue Tongpan is not a good person, nor is he an honest official. There is no need to think about him. Take him away first.
Ye Yutong finished collecting the things and then asked: "Ping An, these warehouses we collected are all ordinary food, why don't they even have some bird's nest supplements? Isn't the Yue Tongpan family very rich?"
"Today my second brother and I heard from the cook that Mrs. Tongpan was very stingy, so she kept all the valuable items in her courtyard for fear that her servants would steal her food."
Ye Yutong: "..."
Doesn’t it mean that the matrons of wealthy families are very face-conscious? The maids help take care of everything.
Why is this Mrs. Tongpan different from others? You have to keep everything yourself.
She glanced at Ping An and said tentatively: "Look, it's late at night. We're all here. Why don't you go take a walk in Madam Tongpan's courtyard? See if there are any things that are about to expire? Help her pack them away."
Li Yunze held back his laughter and nodded.
The two of them dodged the guards in the courtyard and walked to the backyard.
The two nuns on night duty were sitting on the porch and dozing off. Li Yunze said sorry in his heart. The palm of his hand slashed their necks, and they both fainted instantly.
Ye Yutong looked at several rooms, and then fixed his eyes on the two rooms in the south. There was a big lock on them. This should be Mrs. Tongpan's small warehouse.
Li Yunze opened the door, and Ye Yutong didn't take a closer look after entering, but just put all the things in the room into the space.
When preparing to go out, Ye Yutong suddenly thought that after they took all their things away, it would still be these servants who would be punished.
"Ping An, what do you think we light some fires here?"
Li Yunze smiled and said: "That's what I have in mind, not only here, but also in the front yard. If people in the mansion see it, they will definitely run over to put out the fire.
At that time, we will open the door of Tongpan Mansion and wait for the people nearby to come over to help put out the fire. At that time, Yue Tongpan will be outraged if he says there are too few things. "
Ye Yutong blinked and praised: "Ping An, you are really brave, resourceful, awesome, awesome."
Li Yunze was used to her straightforward compliments, so he smiled and lit the fire.
The fire slowly ignited in the room, and soon the wooden shelves in the room started to crackle.
When the two passed by the stable, they saw several horses and two cows inside. Li Yunze opened the door without saying a word.
Ye Yutong followed closely, holding the reins and sending the horse and cow to the space. Seeing that there were two carriages next to them, he also took them in together.
Li Yunze lit another fire here, and a pile of straw next to it burned instantly.
"The water is breaking, the water is breaking!" the two shouted as they ran out.
At this time, several places in Tongpan Mansion were already on fire.
The servants who woke up all carried buckets and ran to the water source.
For a time, the entire Tongpan Mansion was in chaos.
When the two of them walked to the gate, they didn't see the two boys guarding the gate. They must have run to put out the fire.
Li Yunze opened the door of Tongxuan Mansion, and the two of them walked out swaggeringly.
When I walked into the alley, I started shouting: "Tongpan Mansion is flooded, Tongpan Mansion is flooded, everyone, please help put out the fire."
