Traveling to ancient times, with space

Chapter 79 Warehouse

Just as the fight was raging at the palace gate, Su Yue had already reached the palace gate of the national treasury. She took down all the dozen or so guards at the gate, found the key to the treasury on his body, opened the door, and swaggered inside.

I don't know if it's because everyone has been transferred to the palace gates, but only a few weak imperial guards are left here.

Su Yue stepped into the national treasury, her eyes gleaming with excitement.

The small kingdom's treasury was filled with dozens of gold, silver, and jewels, as well as all kinds of silk brocades and tribute items.

Su Yue was like a locust swarm passing through; wherever she went, nothing was left.

After we finished collecting everything, we discovered that the floor was actually blocked by a cabinet, and there was a door leading to the floor.

Once she found the mechanism and opened it, Su Yue was truly stunned.

Inside were rows and rows of shelves, filled with ingots of silver.

Su Yue was extremely excited; she had never seen so much silver before.

Even when she was at the Qian residence, she felt it was already more than enough; the national treasury is truly different.

There were over twenty rows of shelves here, filled with countless amounts of silver. Su Yue happily stored it all into her spatial storage.

Finally, she had emptied the national treasury of its treasures. Su Yue smiled with satisfaction and turned to leave.

Su Yue always heard Shen Lerong talk about how delicious the food in the palace was.

This time she planned to go and see, and Su Yue almost got lost in the huge palace.

They flew to the rooftop again before they could see the location of the imperial kitchen.

Su Yue landed on the ground and carefully pushed open the door. An enticing fragrance wafted out, but there was no one inside.

Did they all hide because they knew there was a fight outside?

She saw all sorts of delicious food displayed in the imperial kitchen, a dazzling array that made her dizzy.

Su Yue took a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth. It tasted better than any pastry she had ever eaten outside the palace.

The steamer was still steaming hot, so I opened it to take a look.

Wow, it smells so good!

Su Yue almost drooled on the spot.

The five or six-tiered steamer was filled with all sorts of dishes: diced chicken with he shou wu (Polygonum multiflorum), duck tongue with various flowers, stewed white fungus with ginseng and astragalus, braised round fish with ham, diced pheasant with peach kernels...

This imperial kitchen truly lives up to its reputation; it has over a hundred kinds of pastries alone.

Not to mention the candied fruits, Su Yue really felt that this trip was worthwhile, as she had thoroughly plundered the imperial kitchen.

She vaguely heard sounds of fighting and killing. She decided to leave before the fighting reached this place, and sneaked out of the palace to avoid the imperial guards.

Su Yue happily returned to the Second Prince's residence while eating.

It's very chaotic outside right now, with shouts of fighting and killing everywhere. Many officials have their doors tightly shut, for fear that someone might take advantage of the situation to break in.

However, several officials' residences were not defended, and screams could be heard from afar.

This night seemed exceptionally long for some.

Inside the palace, the men of the second prince and the fourth prince were engaged in a fierce battle.

The Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince's men also showed no weakness and rose up in resistance.

In an instant, shouts of battle filled the palace, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

The men of the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince were armed, their eyes gleaming with ferocity. They attacked each other mercilessly, as if the other were their mortal enemy.

The Fifth Prince and the Ninth Prince's forces appeared somewhat outnumbered, but they did not back down and joined forces to resist the Fourth Prince's attack.

Because they knew that if they backed down, they would lose their lives.

He was determined to get the throne; he could only blame himself for not planning well enough, which allowed someone to force him to abdicate and invade.

He didn't regret poisoning his father at all; he only regretted not doing it sooner.

In this fierce battle, both sides suffered numerous casualties, but they did not stop fighting; instead, they attacked each other even more fiercely.

Tonight, a victor will be decided.

Otherwise, things might get even more complicated. Once the other princes return, it will be even harder to get that position.

After so many years of scheming, the Fourth Prince had already garnered many supporters in the court.

The sounds of fighting continued inside the palace, and chaos reigned outside as well.

No sooner had Su Yue entered the house and lay down than the gate of the mansion was violently smashed, with such force that they wouldn't stop until they broke it open.

The entire mansion descended into chaos, and even Su Yue could no longer lie down.

She pushed open the door and went out to take a look, then bumped into Uncle Fu who rushed over in a panic. Su Yue's strength was no joke.

Uncle Fu was knocked to the ground and tumbled several times. Su Yue knew that she had run too fast and that was why she had knocked him like that.

Before Su Yue could help him up, Uncle Fu shook his head, got up, and saw that it was Su Yue. His voice trembled as he said, "Miss Su, the main gate probably won't hold, and things might get chaotic outside. The princess asked me to take you with her to escape through the secret passage. We have to hurry, or we might not be able to leave."

"Uncle Fu, what are those things outside? How dare they even break into the Second Prince's residence?" Su Yue asked curiously.

"I don't know! It's a mess outside. The people the Second Prince left behind are holding off the enemy. Let's hurry up and leave!" Uncle Fu clutched his aching back and pulled Su Yue toward the backyard.

Su Yue didn't want to escape through the secret passage. So what if a few people came? She wanted to see just how powerful they were.

If I just run away like this, Mo Liu will laugh at me to death when I get back.

"Uncle Fu, I'll go check ahead. You take the princess and hide. Don't worry about me." Su Yue said, then used her lightness skill to fly towards the gate.

Uncle Fu wanted to stop her, but he saw Su Yue get up and move several meters away from him, so he couldn't stop her no matter what he wanted to do.

He really didn't expect that the person the Second Prince brought back would actually know martial arts.

Su Yue lightly landed on the rooftop closest to the gate. She saw a large group of men in black outside the mansion, as well as men in black who had entered the mansion, wielding swords and knives and frantically slashing at the guards of the mansion.

Su Yue took a closer look and realized that these people were well-trained and had sharp moves; they were clearly well-trained assassins.

She thought to herself that the other party had come prepared. At that moment, a man in black, wielding a long sword, flew towards the rooftop where Su Yue was.

Su Yue dodged to the side, then kicked the man to the ground.

Seeing this, the other men in black swarmed over. Su Yue's lightness skill was already quite impressive; she weaved through the crowd, wielding a large iron ladle with incredible agility, and for a time, no one could get close to her.

Each swing of the large iron ladle carried a fierce momentum, and the men in black surrounded and attacked. Su Yue found it quite fun.

She skillfully evaded the enemy's attacks while using her superior agility to counterattack with a large iron spoon.

The large iron spoon in her hands seemed to become a deadly weapon, each strike hitting the enemy's vital points precisely.

Some of the men in black no longer dared to attack Su Yue. Despite her small stature, they could strike without drawing blood, and once someone was sent flying, they would never get up again.
