Chapter 774: Chapter 297: Raising Money, A Peerless Beauty Wants to Marry ? [10,000 Words]
“A joke, your great companions went to distribute the condolence Silver Coin using the storage ring and Storage Bag from the treasury.”
“You couldn’t possibly let this information slip, so how did you know I was distributing the condolence money? What, could it be that my dear uncle even cares about the soldiers who died in battle?” Mu Rufeng said coldly.
“This… I don’t know who it was, but that day a letter suddenly appeared on my desk.”
“The things it said seed right to ; we can’t give so much Silver Coin to those Qiu Ba, so I took the money back.”
“Your Highness, I was wrong, I really was wrong, I wasn’t trying to embezzle for myself, I just wanted to give it to Your Highness.” Marquis Xuanping spilled the beans in a rush.
“Wrong? You really have a lot of nerve, that’s the condolence money we’re talking about. I had just sent it out, and you turned around and took it away, even under my na. How do you expect others to see ?”
“How am I supposed to face the families of those who died in battle after this? How am I supposed to recruit soldiers and buy horses in the future? Recruit dead n?” The murderous intent in Mu Rufeng grew stronger.
“I was wrong, my nephew, your uncle was truly wrong. I will kowtow to them, I will apologize.”
Marquis Xuanping, sensing Mu Rufeng’s murderous intent, began to kowtow and beg for rcy.
“You’d better pray that those seven million taels are still at your manor.” Mu Rufeng said coldly.
“They are, they definitely are,” Marquis Xuanping quickly said.
“Heh.” Mu Rufeng sneered, but his heart had already sunk to the bottom.
Are they? Will they be there?
If Marquis Xuanping had intended to take the Silver Coin himself, then it was very likely to be there.
But this was soone else’s instigation; it was clear that Marquis Xuanping had been used as a pawn.
Storage Bags and storage rings were extrely precious, and regardless of the storage ring or Storage Bag, there were not only limits on space but also on weight.
Seven million taels, that is seven hundred thousand jin in weight. Only with Mu Rufeng’s assets could there be enough Storage Bags and storage rings to carry such weight.
And Marquis Xuanping clearly didn’t have such a foundation.
So, it could only be transported to the manor outside the city in horse-drawn carriages in boxes.
As for bringing it back to the city, that was impossible, for there was nowhere to put it.
And those who sched behind Marquis Xuanping certainly wouldn’t just watch seven million taels of Silver Coin without doing anything.
So it was very likely, that seven million was gone.
An hour later, they arrived at a rather large manor.
Actually, this manor belonged to his birth mother, only it was later given to her elder brother, Marquis Xuanping.
“Your Highness, there’s a sll of blood.”
“I sll it too; it seems the seven million Silver Coin is gone.” Mu Rufeng said grimly, radiating imnse murderous intent.
After stepping out of the carriage, Mu Rufeng entered the manor.
Corpses, many corpses, blood everywhere.
The dozens of slaves and guards raised in the manor, all dead.
“My dear uncle, co, tell , where is the Silver Coin? Where is it?” Mu Rufeng looked at Marquis Xuanping.
At this point, Marquis Xuanping was also stunned. Upon hearing Mu Rufeng’s question, his entire body began to tremble.
He rushed into the storeroom like a madman.
“Gone, gone, the Silver Coin is gone, all seven million taels.” Marquis Xuanping lost all his spirit.
“Your Highness, Your Highness, I was wrong, I deserve to die, I had no idea soone would be audacious enough to murder and rob.”
Marquis Xuanping wept bitterly.
“Do you realize what you’ve done is sheer madness? Do you understand the magnitude of this incident?”
“Execution of the whole family! This is a cri punishable by execution of the whole family.” Mu Rufeng railed in fury.
“Ah~~!”
At that mont, a group of relatives who had just entered were startled by Mu Rufeng’s bellow about executing the whole family.
Upon seeing bodies everywhere inside, all of their faces turned white, and they felt like vomiting.
At the sa ti, they realized that the Silver Coin was gone.
“Save , save , my nephew, I am your maternal uncle, I am your mother’s elder brother, I can’t die, save , I am willing to donate half, no, seventy percent of my family wealth.”
Marquis Xuanping knelt and crawled to Mu Rufeng’s side, then clung to his thighs.
“Seventy percent? I’ll give you a seventy percent,” Mu Rufeng kicked Marquis Xuanping more than ten ters away, causing him to fall heavily in front of Liu Ruyu and others.
“Pugh~~!”
Marquis Xuanping vomited large amounts of blood in midair and cried out again in pain after landing.
Mu Rufeng still hadn’t dealt a fatal blow, not because he didn’t kill people, but because Marquis Xuanping simply couldn’t die like this.
In Mu Rufeng’s eyes, his so-called uncle was already dood.
To be honest, even if the Silver Coin was still there, Marquis Xuanping was still dood to die; not to kill him would not suffice to quell the anger.
Of course, while he would kill, he wouldn’t touch Marquis Xuanping’s family mbers; after all, they were also his maternal family.
Otherwise, if Mu Rufeng extinguished his maternal uncle’s entire family, the topic would certainly explode throughout the Imperial City, even across the entire world.
But killing only Marquis Xuanping himself, no one would have much to say.
“Your Highness, Your Highness, please spare the lord, we are willing to offer all of our family wealth.” Liu Ruyu stepped forward, knelt down before Mu Rufeng with a thud.
“Aunt, get up,” Mu Rufeng said, frowning upon seeing Liu Ruyu like this.
“Your Highness, please spare my father,” Li Zhongliang also ca forward and knelt on the ground.
“Your Highness, please spare my father (my lord)!”
