Wang Yu was lying on the bed, her eyes were closed as if she was sleeping but the next second, she suddenly opened her eyes in a daze.
" You are up?" Yu Dong calmly looked at Wang Yu, she seed so relaxed that no one could even detect anything amiss. It was as if Yu Dong had all the rights to enter this manor as she wished without getting punished for trespassing.
Hearing her question Wang Yu nodded, she did not know what was going on nor did she recognize Yu Dong. All Wang Yu knew was that she had to follow Yu Dong's orders.
Seeing that Wang Yu was completely under the effect of the scent of the hallucinating flowers, Yu Dong leaned forward and then whispered in the ear of the woman, " Bring
to the storehouse where your family hide their secret docunts. The one that you forged to hide your corruption."
Instinctively, Wang Yu tried to struggle against Yu Dong's command but under the intoxicating scent, she was as putty as a puppet in the hands of Yu Dong. No matter how much she tried to fight against Yu Dong's control, she couldn't go against her, instead, her body started to move on its own as Wang Yu walked out of the bedroom.
Yu Dong silently followed Wang Yu without making a noise, her expression calm. The two won stepped out of the courtyard where Wang Yu lived with her r husband and concubine, Yu Dong thought that Wang Yu might have hidden those docunts in the Garden of her courtyard but instead, Wang Yu continued to walk.
The Wang manor was built on a large space, many courtyards were scattered all over the surrounding.
Currently, only Wang Yu's courtyard was lit up with lamps while the rest were closed as most of the won from the Wang family were taken away by the Yan and Magistrate Li.
Yu Dong watched Wang Yu heading towards a grand courtyard, this courtyard was even bigger than the one where Wang Yu lived and with just one glance Yu Dong could see that the courtyard belonged to Wang Shi as the Wang family really doted on Wang Shi a lot.
The courtyard was decorated with extravagant furniture and decoration items. More than twenty rs were lying outside from the looks of it they were punished to kneel in the courtyard, so were even bleeding. Seeing this Yu Dong frowned, her gaze fell on the bloody ground and she couldn't help but purse her lips in thin line.
' Looks like the Wang family took their anger out on these rs because they couldn't get their hands on ,' thought Yu Dong in her head as she headed inside the courtyard ignoring the rs who were now lying on the ground.
Wang Yu entered the courtyard that belonged to Wang Shi and continued walking before the two of them reached the study of Wang Shi, only then did she lower her body down and pressed a floorboard before putting aside, she then pulled a trap door that was completely concealed in the floor.
Once the trapdoor was revealed, Yu Dong understood why the Yan officers did not find it. It was because the Wang family had employed lots of chanisms to make sure that this trap door would remain hidden.
" Go on," Yu Dong prodded Wang Yu in the back, the woman nodded before stepping down in a daze. With each step she took she cancelled a trap causing Yu Dong's lips to twitch violently. Were they hiding so sort of universal secret? Why did they use so many traps at the sa ti?
Yu Dong walked down the stairs and then followed Wang Yu who now stood in the middle of a large room. As soon as Yu Dong stepped inside the room, her eyes widened in surprise as she looked at the mounds of gold and silver along with pearls and multiple headdresses and crowns.
The money inside the Wang storehouse was enough to fill an entire room causing Yu Dong's mouth to drop all the way to the floor. She walked deeper into the store room and then looked at Wang Yu who was rummaging with a brick in the wall before pulling it aside.
While Wang Yu was taking out the docunts hidden by the Wang family, Yu Dong cleaned the entire pile of treasures inside the storehouse. It wasn't that she was greedy but from what she heard these people were not going to compensate those who were killed by their daughters.
In that case, she might as well rob them and leave the money with the Yan officers to pay it back to those who suffered under the Wang family.
Once she was done cleaning up the storehouse, she turned to look at Wang Yu who was done taking out the docunts. She then took those docunts and read through them one by one, though it did not show a lot. It was enough to send the Wang family to the Yan as Wang Yu had been helping the rebels by supplying them with food and money.
From the looks of it, the Wang family had so relatives in the capital and they were helping them by using the money they earned from the restaurant while Wang Yu handed them the information related to the governnt officials of the Big River Town.
This family had done a lot of cris including acting like spies for the Elder princess who usurped the throne. No wonder Magistrate Li could not trace back those Shadow guards who were trailing after her and the Second Princess.
Most likely they were sent by the Wang family as well as those who were pretending to stand on the side of the Second Princess while helping the eldest princess.
With that thought in her head, Yu Dong closed the docunts and then looked at Wang Yu before smiling at her venomously," You really helped
a lot, Madam Wang. I will see you soon."
