"Your Highness, this is the list."
As he spoke, the Embroidered Uniform Guard handed over a list.
Seeing the list, Zhu Zhanji's pupils constricted. The property found in this mansion was nothing.
Most of the assets had actually been transferred, but this obviously could not be hidden from the Jinyiwei.
"Wait, what is this?"
Suddenly, Zhu Zhanji sniffed and called out to the two Jinyiwei who were carrying the box in front of him.
"Your Highness, there are some medicinal herbs in this box.”
"Open it and take a look."
Then, the two Brocade Guards opened the chest, and a thick medicinal fragrance wafted out.
"Tsk, this old fellow is really afraid of death.”
Zhu Zhanji walked over, holding the list in his hand and smiling.
Zhu Zhanxin ignored him and walked straight up. He sized up the box and then picked up a medicinal herb.
"Fifth brother, what's wrong?"
"I didn't expect to find this thing here.”
Zhu Zhanxin looked at the medicinal herbs in his hand and smiled.
"Thousand-year Chinese Knotweed?"
Zhu Zhanji looked at the herbs in his hand and compared them to the list in his hand.
"How can it be a thousand years? At most, it's only three hundred years old, but it's still considered a great medicine.”
As he spoke, Zhu Zhan Xin shook his head and placed the medicinal herbs into the box.
"Send these herbs to the Crown Prince's residence.”
Zhu Zhan Xin shouted at the thousand-man.
"This, Your Highness, the finances here are all to be sent to the Imperial Palace.”
The thousand-man hurriedly lowered his head and cupped his fists.
It wasn't the first time that a member of the royal family had used items from the palace, but they were all already in the palace.
Right now, these finances were the earnings of the shakedowns. If he lost a share, he would not be able to protect his head.
Moreover, it's not that this matter can't be done. However, don't say it in front of him. He's just a small thousand-man household. This makes it very difficult for him.
Zhu Zhanxin frowned and turned to look at Zhu Zhanji.
"Cough cough, this Qian Hu, just do as my fifth brother says.”
"This…"
The thousand-man looked at him hesitantly.
"Don't worry, I will explain this matter to the emperor. I won't implicate you.”
Zhu Zhanji saw through his misgivings and smiled.
"Yes, sir!"
Seeing this, the Thousand Households heaved a sigh of relief and called out to his subordinates.
She thought that as long as he was not involved, she could do anything.
"Fifth brother, is there anything else you need?"
Zhu Zhanji asked.
The old man had already said that the things in the national treasury were free to be taken, so what was the matter with these medicinal herbs?
Even if Zhu Zhanxin took away all the finances, Zhu Di would not frown.
Zhu Zhan Xin shook his head.
It was already enough to find a great medicine.
"Big brother, let's go take a look."
Zhu Zhan looked around the mansion, wondering if he could find anything else that could be of use.
Zhu Zhanji nodded, and then the two of them got up and began to stroll around the mansion. The Brocade Guard behind them followed closely.
After strolling around, Zhu Zhan Xin did not find anything noteworthy.
However, he did find many secret doors and secret passages that had been opened. Clearly, the Embroidered Uniform Guards did not let go of any corner of the house.
"Fifth brother, the garden of the mansion is in front. Do you want to take a look?”
Zhu Zhanji pointed to the front and said. Most of the high-ranking officials and nobles would have some flowers and plants at home.
Not only did the flowerbed grow flowers and plants, but there were also some medicinal herbs. This was also the reason why he suggested that Zhu Zhan go.
Zhu Zhan Xin nodded.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the flowerbed.
It had to be said that the flowerbed was really well taken care of. There were still many flowers blooming in this season.
However, it did not arouse Zhu Zhan Xin's interest. It was just some flowers and plants. Who knew how many Zhang shi had planted in the residence.
Once, he even saw a few tulips in the manor. He said that they were brought over by merchants from the Western Regions.
Zhang shi had always treated those flowers as treasures, and thinking of this Zhu Zhan Xin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Back then, he had done many ridiculous things in order to trigger the system's mission.
At that time, he had plucked all the tulips that Zhang shi had been longing for.
In the end, not only did the mission not come down, but the Zhang family's chrysanthemums came down first.
……
"Fifth brother?"
Zhu Zhanji's shout pulled him out of his thoughts.
Zhu Zhanxin turned his head and glanced at him. Then, he sized up the flowerbed and shook his head.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something and asked in a suspicious tone.
Then, he slowly walked forward. Zhu Zhanji did not ask anything and just followed behind him.
Soon, Zhu Zhan Xin stopped in his tracks. In front of him was a circular pool with a fake mountain in the middle.
There were also a few wooden buckets scattered around. Clearly, these were used by the servants to water the flowers.
Then, under Zhu Zhanji's puzzled gaze, he put his hand into the pool.
Was he washing his hands?
Zhu Zhanji was a little puzzled by Zhu Zhanxin's actions.
On the other side, after Zhu Zhanxin put his hand into the water, he did not take it out immediately. After waiting for a while, he seemed to have confirmed something before taking his hand out.
He shook off the water stains on his hands and looked back at Zhu Zhanji.
"Fifth brother, what are you doing?"
Zhu Zhanji also saw some clues. It didn't look like Zhu Zhanyi was here to wash his hands.
"Big brother, come and try."
Zhu Zhan Xin didn't explain anything. He pointed at the pool and smiled.
Zhu Zhanji was a little confused, but he still walked forward and put his hand into the water according to Zhu Zhanxin's actions.
The moment he entered the water, Zhu Zhanji's pupils constricted. A bone-piercing coldness came from his hands, as if it was going to seep into his bones.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhanji quickly took out his hand.
"This! Fifth Brother."
Zhu Zhanji didn't need to explain as he noticed the abnormality.
Under the scorching sun, the water in the pool was still so cold. It was not the water from the deep well. There was obviously a problem.
"It's that fake mountain."
"A fake mountain?"
Zhu Zhanji raised his head and looked at the fake mountain in the middle with a puzzled expression. What did this have to do with the fake mountain?
"Big brother, do you know about the Millennium Coldsteel? There's that strange object in this fake mountain."
Zhu Zhan Xin smiled. He did not expect that he could actually find such a treasure just by coming out to play.
The Millennium Coldsteel was an important material for refining talismans!
Millennium Coldsteel?
Zhu Zhanji was stunned. He had only seen this thing in miscellaneous books and had always thought it was a fictional thing.
However, when he heard it from Zhu Zhan Xin's mouth and combined it with the situation just now, he immediately believed it.
Without needing Zhu Zhanji to say anything, Zhu Zhanji waved his hand and ordered the Brocade Guards to send the fake mountain to the Crown Prince's residence.
As for Zhu Zhan Xin, he was just thinking about what to do with this Millennium Coldsteel.
