Chapter 896 The Little Nun Going Down the Mountain 38
All the way south, Ah Cai walked leisurely with her people in a happy mood, completely unaware that less than a day after she left the "Si Hai Inn", this place had been surrounded by the court's elite troops.
The cause of all this was that the news that the orphan of the Tong family had taken away a huge inheritance was accidentally leaked by the Xiahou family when they were drinking and chatting outside, and then reported to the emperor by some people with ulterior motives.
The current emperor attaches great importance to the inheritance taken away by the Taoist orphan. Apart from anything else, the pills that can strengthen the body are extremely precious and rare.
So the emperor hurriedly summoned Uncle Xiahou into the imperial study and asked him in detail about the origin of the inheritance, why it was temporarily stored in the Pingkang Earl's Mansion, how much storage fee was given, and other questions.
When Uncle Xiahou learned about this, he was extremely angry and annoyed.
He had always emphasized that this money must not be easily revealed, but who would have thought that as soon as it appeared, his family members spread the news like a leaky wall.
You know, who wouldn't want such a huge sum of money?
Who wouldn't be crazy about this?
Now, this news has reached the ears of the current emperor in less than a month. I am afraid that this matter will not be resolved peacefully unless his Xiahou family suffers a heavy blow.
Old Uncle Xiahou was not vague and directly presented a box of gold beads the size of a baby's fist. This was the storage fee given by the Tong family.
When the present man saw this golden bead, his eyes were bloodshot. You, old man Xiahou, had such a good thing but didn’t take it out earlier. The Tong family’s inheritance must have more things.
The current emperor is also anxious. It is usually difficult to find these Taoists. He cannot give up on this breakthrough. At least he has to ask for some pills for himself, right?
...
Acai and his group strolled leisurely in the water town, picking tender green lotus pods, rowing a boat, and chewing sweet and juicy watermelons.
They stretched their legs leisurely, leaning against the side of the boat, enjoying this peaceful and pleasant time.
A Cai casually put her hand into the lake, feeling the coolness and smoothness of the water, as if the whole world was left with only this piece of tranquil water.
At this moment, 00541 suddenly reported slyly, "Tsk tsk, the Sihai Inn where the host is staying has been surrounded by soldiers! I guess the emperor of this dimension has you on his radar!"
Upon hearing this news, Rong Mama slapped the side of the boat without hesitation and said indignantly, "It must be that the Xiahou family was too arrogant when spending money and revealed that we had taken away the inheritance!"
Nanny Gu nodded repeatedly, expressing her agreement: "Others may not be able to find out, but the emperor's secret guards are not vegetarians. As long as they connect with each other, they will definitely be able to find us."
Ah Cai frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, she asked, "What exactly does he want? Could it be the elixir?"
Tong Jiayuan was concentrating on brewing tea on a small red clay stove. Hearing Ah Cai's question, he replied without even looking up, "What emperor wouldn't want immortality? He's probably looking for you for the elixir."
Ah Cai snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Immortality? He's running Qingyun Kingdom so badly, and he still has the nerve to ask for pills?"
00541 squatted on the broad head of the golden raccoon dog like a nimble fat boy, and said with a grin, "The old uncle of the Xiahou family must be so angry with his filial sons and grandsons that he must be vomiting blood!"
After saying that, 00541 opened the curtain that had been prepared long ago without hesitation. Just like opening a Pandora's box, the scene behind the curtain was instantly revealed to everyone.
The Xiahou family was in chaos at this time, and the chaotic scene was hilarious.
As for old Uncle Xiahou, he was really furious. He waved a long whip in his hand and beat his eldest son mercilessly!
Ah Da looked at the screen, where Old Master Xiahou's face was red with anger, and couldn't help but sigh, "If the young lady hadn't fed him the 'Rejuvenation Pill', this old man's blood pressure would have really gone through the roof!"
Ah Er, who was watching the fun, laughed and said, "It's a good thing I remembered to show a few shots, otherwise where else would we go to watch such a wonderful show?"
When everyone heard this, they all started laughing.
Looking at the scene again, after beating the eldest son a few times, old uncle Xiahou seemed to be still not satisfied, so he called all the men in the family over and beat them one by one!
"Let you go out and eat and drink as much as you want..."
"I told you guys to let the secret out when you go out..."
"Let your greed for wealth and power blind you..."
While beating him, old uncle Xiahou kept cursing, as if he wanted to vent all the resentment he had accumulated in the past few days.
Finally, he was tired of beating her. He threw down the whip in his hand, panting, and stood there gasping for breath with his hands on his waist.
He was so angry that he pointed his finger at his useless children and grandchildren, poking their heads one by one and cursing:
"Look at your behavior! What's given to you is yours. Those belong to the orphan of the Tong family! You useless bastards, you don't use your minds in the right place at all. All you do all day is think of those crooked ideas, and always think of taking some crooked path!"
As he spoke, he raised his foot and kicked his second grandson's butt several times, cursing as he kicked, "You little bastard, you don't even know your last name after drinking some horse urine, you're like a madman! You fell into someone's trap and foolishly helped them count money. Tell me, are you a fool or not?"
After scolding his second grandson, he turned around and kicked his second son several times, continuing to curse: "Who in the world doesn't know that money is good? But what about you? You guys are diligently raising the orphans of the Tong family! And what's the result? You actually teamed up to deceive me, your father, just to eat up the whole family. Do you have any conscience?"
On the cruise ship, Acai and several others listened attentively and nodded in agreement.
"Among the Xiahou family, only the old uncle is considered a decent person. He has a clear mind and knows what can be taken and what will burn his hands." A Cai said with emotion.
At this moment, 00541 circled in mid-air like a lithe bird. Its voice was clear and resounding, "That's right! After the old man was summoned to the palace by the Emperor, he immediately offered up all the gold beads left by the host without a word, not even daring to keep a single one!"
Ah Cai seemed to be very interested in this topic. She took out an exquisite round fan from somewhere like a magic trick, and then waved it leisurely. The patterns on the fan appeared and disappeared with her movements.
"Oh? If he does that, then he'll have nothing left, right?" Ah Cai asked curiously. "Will all he's left with is some gold, silver, and jade?"
00541 spun nimbly in the air and replied, "How could that be! He's already divided up all the gold, silver, and treasures! His sons, daughters, and grandchildren all got a share!"
"Wow, so generous!" Ah Cai exclaimed in surprise, "So there must be a reason why his second grandson is so extravagant when he goes out!"
