Chapter 417: Chapter 417: Your family has committed a serious fault, it must be punished

Upon hearing this, Yang Wenxiao fell silent.

His thoughts were the same. T/his chapter is updat/𝓮d by n𝒐v(ê(l)biin.c/o/m

The vanishing with the treasure, she had done this impossible thing before, it wouldn’t be inconceivable for it to happen again.

But he was certain that she was dead.

Dead.

Her body was burnt to ashes and buried under a crooked tree.

In this world, her dazzling silhouette no longer existed.

She was dead.

He must look for other reasons.

Could it really be, as Yang Wang said, the Tong family had used a mechanism to temporarily move the treasure?

Was the treasure still in Anping Village?

The incident had happened so suddenly, the Tong family didn’t know that he was aware of everything, so in their panic, they might have used a mechanism to move the evidence. This was a possibility.

But looking at Tong Tiehu and Tong Sanlang’s reactions, the grandfather and grandson duo didn’t appear to be lying.

The two of them were clueless…

Then there was only one possibility left: she had an heir.

But why would the heir move the treasure?

Leaving the treasure there wouldn’t have got the Tong family in any trouble, since they had the secret edict, neither Yang Wang nor Cen Hong could do anything to them.

Could it be that she wanted to continue her previous plan?

That made sense.

This batch of treasure, hadn’t even nearly achieved its intended purpose.

His original idea was to use this treasure to attract all the raucous aristocratic families and incite them to kill each other, allowing him to reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

But who would have expected, that man proposes and god disposes.

Shuifeng Prefecture had experienced an earthquake which opened up a secret tunnel, discovered early by Yang Wang and Cen Hong.

Those aristocratic families hadn’t even had the time to find this place.

Moreover, Yang Wang and Cen Hong were too clever, raising such a ruckus by planning to dig out the entire village, forcing him to make a move.

According to his original plan, he was only to appear once those aristocratic families had worn each other down fighting for the treasure.

Appearing early like this, none of his goals had been achieved.

What should he do?

He sighed inwardly and said, “She is dead.”

His tone was tinged with desolation.

Everyone around him could hear his lamentation, and no one dared to speak.

They silently travelled to the underground vault.

No need to mention the grandeur of the vault, especially when all this had been done without anyone in Anping Village knowing.

Everything related to her was too mysterious.

Yang Wenxiao stepped down from the palanquin and began to walk slowly around the surroundings.

Yang Wang held a brick, unsure of what to say.

About the time for a cup of tea later, Yang Wenxiao spoke: “Let Gu Sheng and his son stay, everyone else leave.”

These words surprised many.

Yang Wang immediately said, “Grandpa Emperor, this is not advisable!”

Tong Sanlang’s martial arts skills were high; if he wanted to hold the Emperor hostage, it would be as easy as lifting a finger.

“Leave.” Yang Wenxiao did not say much, only uttered these two words in a cold tone.

Yang Wang’s body shivered involuntarily, he answered in respect.

A group of people quickly all left, leaving only Yang Wenxiao, Tong Tiehu, and Tong Sanlang in the underground vault.

“Did she leave any words before she died?” Yang Wenxiao asked.

“Responding to the Emperor, my mother simply said that she could finally meet my father.” Tong Tiehu replied respectfully.

Yang Wenxiao’s fist, hidden under his wide sleeve, suddenly clenched.

Finally, she had used the word ‘finally’.

Good, very good.

His guess wasn’t wrong at all, she loved Gu Yu immensely.

Taking a deep breath, he asked again, “Are the treasures really gone?”

“Yes, I, Tong Tiehu, swear to the sky. If I have hidden the treasure, may I die a horrible death and suffer all the torments in the world.” Tong Tiehu said with a serious expression.

“Mm, I believe too that God is watching.” Yang Wenxiao nodded, “In that case, your Tong family is indeed guilty of a grave mistake.”

Tong Tiehu clenched his teeth, “I am willing to accept the Emperor’s punishment.”

“How much wealth does your family have at present? Including the income from Tingfeng Pavilion and Jiji Residence.” Yang Wenxiao asked.
