Chapter 1025: A Thief with a Conscience
"I'll accompany you to see him." Young Master Yan Yu spoke.
"But Yan Shuo is still outside..." Princess Cai Yue looked at Master Yan Yu.
"If he likes to wait, let him wait." Master Yan Yu said in a very cold tone.
"Li'er, you guys go back and rest first. We'll go see my grandpa." Princess Cai Yue looked at Yan Li.
"Okay." Yan Li nodded and walked towards the west courtyard with King Zhan.
Princess Cai Yue and Master Yan Yu returned to the East Courtyard, only to see Old Man Liu sitting alone at the stone table in the yard drinking tea.
"Grandpa." Princess Cai Yue rushed over to him when she saw him.
"You finally decided to come back." Old Master Liu looked at her with eyes full of doting.
"Aren't you missing grandpa?" Princess Cai Yue said coquettishly.
"Do you miss your grandfather or do you want to get married?" Old Master Liu looked at him with amusement.
"Grandpa, if you don't want me to get married, then I won't get married." Princess Cai Yue said immediately after hearing this.
"That won't do, Yue'er. Our wedding is almost ready, and I'm sure grandpa will agree." Master Yan Yu on the side became anxious upon hearing this.
Old Master Liu felt elated when Master Yan Yu called him "Grandpa".
"She said that because she knows there is no way I would stop her from getting married." Old Master Liu said with a smile.
"Grandpa is the best." Princess Cai Yue immediately started to act coquettishly upon hearing that.
"I heard from the housekeeper that you brought a friend back for this reason. Where is he?" Old Master Liu looked at her curiously.
"They went back to the west courtyard to rest. Grandpa, Li'er is amazing and a very nice person. I'll bring her to meet you when I have the chance." Princess Cai Yue's eyes lit up when she mentioned Yan Li.
"It's rare to see you like someone so much. She must be a very good person." Old Master Liu smiled when he heard this.
"That's for sure." Princess Cai Yue nodded.
"Yan Yu, I heard that your Yan family wants to change the bride?" Old Master Liu raised his head and looked at Young Master Yan Yu.
"Grandpa, don't pay attention to them. They can't be my master." Master Yan Yu said.
"That's good." Old Master Liu nodded when he heard this.
Young Master Yan Yu chatted with Old Master Liu for a while before leaving.
When he walked out of the princess's mansion, he saw Yan Shuo's carriage still parked there.
"Brother, you're finally out." Seeing Master Yan Yu coming out, Yan Shuo immediately jumped off the carriage and walked towards him.
"Is there something wrong?" Young Master Yan Yu looked at him.
"Dad asked me to come and pick you up, let's go back quickly." Yan Shuo said and jumped into the carriage again.
Young Master Yan Yu also followed.
"Brother, I heard from mother that you brought back a stunning girl this time?" Yan Shuo looked at Master Yan Yu.
"Isn't the end of Princess Cai Lang enough to scare you?" Master Yan Yu looked at him coldly when he heard that.
"I don't mean anything else, I'm just curious." Yan Shuo's expression flashed when he heard that.
He naturally knew the miserable plight of Princess Cai Lang.
"It's best not to be curious about things that you shouldn't be curious about, and don't covet people that you shouldn't covet, otherwise you will die without knowing how." After saying this, Master Yan Yu ignored him.
When Yan Shuo heard this, a hint of disdain flashed across his eyes.
He didn't believe that with his looks as the second most handsome man in Jubao Country and the Yan family's wealth, the girl would look down on him.
She just hasn't seen herself yet.
The next day.
In the palace.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad has happened. I quit." The emperor was awakened by a cry while he was still asleep.
"What's the matter?" The emperor looked at the great elder who kicked open his door and the guards behind him who had faces full of doubt and confusion.
"Your Majesty, the treasure house was stolen." The great elder looked at the emperor and said.
"What? The treasury was stolen? How is that possible?" The emperor immediately came to his senses after hearing this.
"The treasury was indeed robbed, but the thief was a conscientious one. He took away half of our treasury and left these pills." The Great Elder brought the pills left by Yan Li to the emperor.
The emperor took it, opened it, and his eyes widened!
He didn't expect that such an ordinary medicine bottle actually contained a god-level medicine.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" The great elder thought that the emperor was so angry that he went crazy.
"Great Elder, I think this is not a thief with a conscience, but a foolish thief." The emperor raised his head and said.
"Are you stupid? Are you stupid enough to move half of our treasure house?" The great elder thought that the emperor was mentally ill.
"Look for yourself. These contain god-level elixirs. There are ten pills in each bottle. All ten bottles contain them." The emperor handed the bottle of elixirs to the great elder.
"Let me see." Upon hearing this, the Great Elder quickly took the bottle of medicine and examined it.
"It's true. This thief actually did a business that lost money? Oh, and he also left this note." The elder handed the note in his hand to the emperor.
"Can we have more such conscientious yet stupid thieves?" Nangong Xi muttered after reading the note.
Great Elder:...
The emperor in front of him should be the first one who hoped that his treasure house would be stolen.
"Your Majesty, I have discovered a very strange phenomenon." The great elder looked at the emperor.
"What?" the emperor asked.
"The thief only stole the shiny treasures, and left the dull treasures untouched." The great elder often went into the treasure house to take inventory of the treasures, so he knew very well what treasures were inside.
"It seems that this thief prefers shiny treasures. Great Elder, you should collect more shiny treasures and put them in. Maybe she will come to steal again." The emperor said with shining eyes.
"We will catch her then, right?" The Great Elder thought this was also a good way to catch the thief.
"What are you arresting? Why arrest such a good thief?" The emperor rolled his eyes when he heard this.
Great Elder:...
It seems that the emperor's goal is to get the elixir, not to catch the thief.
"I understand." The elder nodded.
"By the way, isn't Yue'er back? Ask her to come over and bring her friends along." The emperor looked at the great elder.
"Your Majesty, just tell the eunuchs to do this kind of thing. I still have a lot of things to do." After the elder said this, he turned and left.
emperor:……
This great elder is even more arrogant than the emperor himself!
So the emperor had no choice but to order the eunuch to go to Princess Cai Yue's mansion.
My daughter has loved running around among the people since she was young, so I built a princess palace for her very early on.
This is a treatment that other princesses do not have.
Princess Cai Yue was happily drinking tea, eating snacks and chatting with Yan Li when the eunuchs from the palace arrived.
"Li'er, my father wants to see us." Princess Cai Yue looked at Yan Li.
"Let's go, it's not like we haven't met the emperor before." Yan Li stood up immediately after hearing that.
The War King went straight back to Yan Li's space.
Seeing King Zhan suddenly disappear on the spot, Princess Cai Yue didn't say much. She took Yan Li out of the princess's mansion and got on the palace's carriage.
