“If Qiu Pusheng wanted to rebel, he would inform Fan Jianxi and ask Fan Jianxi to prepare for a coup. However, none of Fan Jianxi’s subordinates would know anything about this. Obviously, Qiu Pusheng is not prepared and isn’t sure that he will succeed.
“Whether Fan Jianxi secretly reported Qiu Pusheng or not, it would not have much of an impact. At most, Shi Yuan would be able to guard against Qiu Pusheng in secret earlier. Then, he would slowly bring Qiu Pusheng to justice. No matter what, he was the Emperor who had unified the world. It is impossible for him to impulsively send people to capture Qiu Pusheng the moment he hears that Qiu Pusheng had the intention to usurp the throne. Wouldn’t this force Qiu Pusheng to immediately rebel and cause a war? Therefore, even if we have to go to Da Chen earlier and give all the things in the secret room to Shi Yuan, it still isn’t a rushed task. We can actually go this afternoon.” Xue Yan concluded.
“Alright.” Jiang Yue nodded. She had no objections. “Let’s go this afternoon then.”
At the same time, Da Chen.
When Fan Jianxi woke up, the rest of the people in the government office had also woken up. Fan Jianxi was shocked to find that everyone had been knocked unconscious.
Fan Jianxi was not only shocked but also panicked when he realized that something was missing. He quickly looked down at the pockets inside his clothes and found that the three keys were gone.
At this moment, another servant came in in a panic and said that there was a secret room next door that was unlocked.
If the secret chamber was exposed, wouldn’t that mean… Fan Jianxi was scared out of his wits!
However, he still hurried over to the next room. As expected, the antique shelf was moved to the side. The wooden boards were lifted, and the iron plates were opened. He hurried down the wooden ladder.
The iron door below was also opened, and even the stone slab at the top of the secret room was moved to the side. Without standing on the table, one could see that the small wooden box inside was gone…
Fan Jianxi fell to the ground.
His face turned pale.
His eyes were wide open.
He had no idea who did this.
He was the only one who knew about this secret chamber, and he had killed all the people who built it. Who was it that was so smart that he could even discover the secret compartment on the top of the secret room…
The backup plan he left behind… Gone… And all his treasures were gone…
Fan Jianxi couldn’t react in time.
After his emotions had calmed down a little, Fan Jianxi remembered to send someone to investigate the unfamiliar faces who had been in the government office recently.
However, before he could speak, he thought that the things in the secret chamber had disappeared. One person would not be big enough to take them all away. There must have been a few people that came. Moreover, they had knocked out the people from the government office. They must be very skilled… Moreover, this was originally a matter that could not be seen in the light. They could not openly investigate, so they could only investigate in secret. However, when would they investigate in secret? No one knew about this… Therefore, he quickly withdrew the order and stopped the investigation.
Then, he started to think about the culprits.
One moment, he suspected that General Qiu Pusheng’s men had done it. The next moment, he suspected that the Emperor’s men had heard some news and sent people to investigate this place. The next moment, he suspected that his enemies had taken away these things in the secret chamber and could be used to threaten him in the future. The next moment, he suspected that it was his men who had done it.
Wait a minute…
There were no more things in the secret room. He did not feel safe at all. For the next few days, he felt uneasy and could not sleep at night.
However, no one threatened him with those things for the next few days and everything was silent…
