Chapter 3 Nothing
Girl, what are you...
Watching Chen Xue moving the vases and ornaments in the hall, Mrs. Chens mother-in-law looked puzzled.
My house is all being ransacked, how can these things come to their advantage?
Chen Xue said while taking the opportunity to put the vase into the space.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, a ruthless look flashed across her face, "That's right, we can't take advantage of them."
After saying that, she grabbed a vase next to her and threw it to the ground. With a loud bang, hundreds or even thousands of taels of vases shattered on the ground.
Chen Xue was dumbfounded immediately, and then her body ached.
My dear mother, I said you cannot take advantage of the enemy, and I cannot let you destroy it.
Then, when he saw that her mother wanted to smash other vases, she immediately ran over to stop her.
Mom, dont get excited!
"What's wrong?"
I mean, I can hide this stuff so it doesnt come to other peoples expense.
Hide?
"it's useless."
Mrs. Chen sighed, "You don't know those people. They dig up and down the ground every time they ransack a house. They can find it wherever it is hidden. It's better to smash it to avoid taking advantage of them."
"Don't"
Chen Xue snatched the vase over with a look of pain on her face, "I have a way."
When Mrs. Chen saw this, she no longer stopped her. Moreover, she also heard reports from her servants that the Chen residence was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and she had no choice but to run out.
Chen Xue took the opportunity to take away the vase and even the teapot and teacups on the table. Of course, the tables and chairs were not left alone.
If the floors weren't difficult to dig, she would have wanted to dig them all out. These floors were all made of high-quality wood.
After doing all this, she saw a man wearing black armor and a sword on his waist rushing in with a group of officers and soldiers.
That man is Guo Qiang.
As soon as he entered, he waved to his men, "Go and drive everyone out and gather them together."
Soon, everyone was rushed to the front yard of the hall and surrounded by officers and soldiers. When Guo Qiang saw this, he nodded with satisfaction, then took out the imperial edict, read out the notice of confiscating the Chen family's home and exiled it, and couldn't wait to let his men collect it. .
Guo Qiang asked his men to keep an eye on Chen Xue and others, and he took the lead in entering the hall.
However, when he entered the Chen Mansion's living room, he felt something was wrong. He always felt that something was strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
He walked around the hall and finally realized what he was doing.
"here it is?"
A group of people passed by the Huxin Pavilion and were stunned.
Because there is no water at all in the lake, leaving only a layer of silt and some weeds, it looks like it has been abandoned for a long time.
Guo Qiang frowned and remembered that there should be a small lake here. There were many precious fish in the lake. Why is there nothing now?
Not only was he puzzled, but the Censor was also puzzled.
The people who couldn't figure it out continued to move forward and soon arrived at the warehouse. Guo Qiang couldn't hide the smile on his face.
You two, go open the warehouse and let the Censor see how much grain Chen Yuan has embezzled.
Guo Qiang casually clicked on two hands to open the door, and then waited for the surprise to appear.
However, there is no surprise, but there is fright.
After the warehouse was opened, there was nothing inside, let alone food, even rat droppings. Oh, by the way, there was a lot of rat droppings.
Wrong.
What about food?
What about the thousands of bags of grain?
How big is a bag of grain?
where it goes?
Guo Qiangs mind was full of questions, and he even looked around the door carefully, thinking that he had gone to the wrong place.
Then, he looked at a subordinate next to him. The subordinate nodded, indicating that he was definitely here.
At the same time, he was also confused.
I remember that he clearly hid the grain in this warehouse. After all, for peace of mind, he personally took people to hide it. He carried the bags of grain on his back.
He obviously piled them all together, worked overtime for several nights, and even stepped on rat droppings... Ahem, in short, he was 100% sure that the relief food was in this warehouse.
Instead, what now?
Nothing at all!
Did you see a ghost?
He remembered that there was relief food here last night, and he had not seen a carriage leave from the Chen Mansion today, so it was obviously impossible to send it away.
The subordinate looked confused and even wondered whether his old eyes were dizzy due to working overtime and staying up late these past few days.
When he wiped his eyes and found that there was still nothing inside, his face became very ugly.
Things are messed up!
Although he didn't know how the food disappeared, he knew very well that Guo Qiang would not let him go.
