Chapter 359: Royal City, Silver Vault

When the dawn came again, Yang Zhengshan was already standing in the main hall of King Qing City.

The main hall of each royal city is the Chengyun Hall, which is where the prince holds celebrations and exercises power. Generally, the nest has an arched roof, a dragon in the middle, a golden rim, and eight auspicious flowers. The seats in the hall are painted with red paint and gold panchi, the hangings are decorated with red pins and gold panchi, and the back wall of the seats is painted with colorful clouds of panchi.

However, King Qing's Chengyun Palace seems a bit stingy, and does not have any meaning of splendor. Instead, it gives people a feeling of being closed off.

The reason for this can be traced back to when King Qing came to feudal lordship more than thirty years ago.

Prince Qing was the son of the former crown prince. Emperor Taiping had never wanted to see him and was even wary of him. Naturally, he would not buy him a gorgeous palace.

When King Qing came to Qinghua Mansion, there was no royal city in Qinghua Mansion. When King Qing came to Qinghua Mansion, the royal city had just been built. King Qing waited in the city for three years before the royal city was completed.

At that time, everyone knew that Emperor Taiping did not want to see King Qing, so the officials who supervised the construction of the royal city did not care about King Qing, and just cut corners and materials. They also saved as much as they could on the court, and finally built a grand and the worst palace. Royal city.

Chengyun Palace, which was supposed to be grand and grand, turned into a palace that looked shoddy.

Yang Zhengshan stood in the Chengyun Hall, looked at the decorations in the hall, and shook his head slightly.

"How miserable!"

He felt that King Qing was miserable.

It was originally the emperor's order, but it suddenly became the prince's order. It was just that he became the prince, and he was also suppressed and monitored by Emperor Taiping.

After finally beating Emperor Taiping to death, he finally saw an opportunity to come forward, but ended up bumping into himself.

Yang Zhengshan feels a little like fate is playing tricks on people.

"Sir! It has been found out. Prince Qing escaped from the city last night! He left the city through the west gate!" Yang Mingzhi came over to report.

Yang Zhengshan stepped out of the hall and looked at the clouds in the sky, "Where are Prince Qing's children?"

"It seems they left together. Some people saw a team of more than a hundred people leaving the city with three or two carriages last night," Yang Mingzhi said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly. There were only about a hundred people, so it seemed that King Qing left in a hurry.

"They must be looking for Ji Feiyu!"

"It doesn't matter, so what if they find Ji Feiyu, they have no chance!"

The situation has changed!

In the battle of Qinghua Mansion, King Qing was defeated miserably, which caused the originally unknown rebel army to completely lose its foundation.

If King Qing can defeat the Tenglong Guards, then they can gain a foothold in Liaodong. When Ji Feiyu cleans up the mess in Chongshan Town, they can sweep the entire Liaodong and swallow it up in a short time.

Then while stabilizing Liaodong, he deployed troops in Jizhou to block the imperial army outside Jizhou. Then maybe King Qing would really have a chance to seek great prosperity in the world.

But now, not only did they fail to defeat the Tenglong Guards, they also lost the Qinghua Mansion. More importantly, they lost too quickly, leaving Ji Feiyu unable to clean up the mess in Chongshan Town.

As the saying goes, one careless move and everything is lost.

"Where are the officials in the city?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"They're all in the dungeon!" Yang Mingzhi said.

"Well, invite them out, leave the affairs in the city to them, and send someone to inform Lord Pang Tang to come over and clean up the mess!"

"We will leave Qinghua Mansion after a day's rest!"

Yang Zhengshan said.

Yang Mingzhi nodded and said, "What should we do with the siege equipment outside the city?"

"..."

Yang Zhengshan was speechless.

The engineers' efforts were in vain this time. They worked hard for several days, but it was of no use.

Who can blame this? I can only blame the enemy for being too useless!

"Split it first. Don't throw it away. Find a place to store it. When Master Pang Tang organizes the civilians, let them send it to Chongshan Pass! Maybe we can still use it by then."

The decisive battle of this battle will definitely be at Chongshan Pass. King Qing has been defeated. Ji Feiyu will definitely not leave the pass again and will probably defend Chongshan Pass.

If you want to attack Chongshan Pass, you will definitely need more siege equipment.

If the Tenglong Guards were to transport these siege equipment, it would definitely not work, but if Pang Tang organized civilians to transport them, it would not matter.

"Okay, what about the prisoners?"

"How many?"

"Nearly six thousand people!"

The total number of soldiers in the two guards was 11,200, which means that nearly half of them were killed in the battle.

Yang Zhengshan frowned. These prisoners are not easy to deal with. They must not be killed. After all, these are the people of Da Rong, but if they are kept, Tenglong Guard does not have the manpower to look after them now!

As for leaving it to the magistrate's office of Qinghua Prefecture, that's even worse. Now the prefect's office of Qinghua Prefecture seems to be in vain. The prefect is imprisoned by King Qing, and all the civil servants and servants have been dismissed by King Qing. The prefect has now become a mere commander. Whether he can stabilize Fucheng has not yet been determined, let alone other things.

"Let someone know the Tenglong Guard and send a group of soldiers over!"

There was no other way, Yang Zhengshan could only mobilize the soldiers of Tenglong Guard again, not the soldiers, but the remaining soldiers, and let them guard these prisoners.

"In addition, send a message to Liaoyuan Dusi, asking them to quickly organize troops to take over!"

"These prisoners are all their soldiers, and they are responsible for turning into rebels. They must send someone to take over within five days, otherwise I will give them a hand!"

Yang Zhengshan said with some dissatisfaction.

He was really dissatisfied with Liaoyuan Dusi. It had been so many days, and Liaoyuan Dusi had not responded at all. Logically, Liaoyuan Dusi should have taken action first, but in the end, Tenglong Guard had taken over Qinghua Mansion, but Liaoyuan Dusi did not make any move.

"Yes!" Yang Mingzhi smiled and went to do his work.

As soon as he left, Ding Qiu came over.

"Old slave greets the master!" Ding Qiu bowed with some shame.

He had been hiding in Qinghua Mansion for five years, but it seemed that he had done nothing.

He was asked to find out the news, but he hardly found any useful news. He did not report the rebellion of King Qing in time, and he did not help in the battle outside the city.

From beginning to end, he was like a spectator and did nothing.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Yang Zhengshan did not blame him, but patted his shoulder and smiled.

"Old slave is useless and has failed the master's trust!" Ding Qiu said ashamedly.

Yang Zhengshan smiled, "It's normal that you can't do something that even the Secret Guard can't do."

What a joke, the Secret Guard was fooled by King Qing, what can Ding Qiu do?

Although Ding Qiu has more than a dozen helpers with good cultivation, they are not a little bit worse than the Secret Guard.

In fact, Ding Qiu and his team have been hiding in Qinghua Mansion for several years without being dug out by King Qing, which means that they have done a good job.

As for finding out information, Ding Qiu and his team did not find nothing.

"Master, we know where King Qing's silver vault is!" Ding Qiu said in a low voice.

Yang Zhengshan's eyes lit up, "Where is it?"

"In Xiuchun Garden!"

Ding Qiu led Yang Zhengshan to Xiuchun Garden.

Xiuchun Garden is not an embroidery workshop, but a flower building, the best flower building in the city.

Yang Zhengshan looked at this elegantly decorated flower building and then looked at the king's city next to it.

This Xiuchun Garden is just outside the king's city, only ten feet away from the king's city.

"Master, the silver vault is in the cellar of Xiuchun Garden!" Ding Qiu said.

Yang Zhengshan winked at Yang Minghao behind him, and Yang Minghao immediately led the guards into Xiuchun Garden.

"My lords, my soldiers, I am guilty, please don't kill me!"

As soon as the guards rushed into Xiuchun Garden, a burst of begging for mercy came from Xiuchun Garden.

Yang Zhengshan's mouth twitched slightly.

Flower building!

He had never been to a flower building in his life!

When he stepped into the building, he saw a group of gorgeous singing girls and dancers kneeling on the ground. The scene was so erotic that Yang Zhengshan was a little distracted.

A man is a teenager until he dies, and a man is always lustful until he dies!

However, a group of prostitutes did not make Yang Zhengshan lose his composure, not to mention that there were his subordinates here, and his son.

"Shut up, whoever dares to make a sound, drag him out and chop him!" Yang Zhengshan shouted coldly.

Suddenly, there was silence in the building.

"Search!"

Yang Zhengshan was too lazy to look at these women in the brothel.

Soon, Ding Qiu and his guards found the entrance to the cellar.

Yang Minghao and Ding Qiu went in and took a look. When they came up, their eyes were full of stars.

"Dad, there are so many silvers!" Yang Minghao's eyes flashed.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "You keep an eye on them, I'll go down and take a look first!"

As he said that, he jumped into the cellar.

After he saw the situation in the cellar clearly, his head was also confused.

He finally understood what Yang Minghao meant by a lot of silver!

This is not a lot, this is a mountain of silver!

To be honest, Yang Zhengshan is not short of silver. The silver of Tenglongwei belongs to Tenglongwei, and the Yang family has made a lot of money over the years. I dare not say that it is more. It is still very easy for the Yang family to get more than 100,000 taels of silver.

But this is only the silver of the Yang family. There are still 500,000 taels of silver in the Lingquan space. Yang Zhengshan robbed the Liu family's silver vault in Jiangnan, and the silver is still lying in the Lingquan space.

There is no way, Yang Zhengshan has no place to use the silver.

Boxes are placed in the cellar, each of which contains a silver ingot of 50 taels.

However, there are only silver ingots here, nothing else. Obviously, the silver vault of King Qing should be more than this one.

As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. King Qing will definitely not put all his assets in Qinghua Mansion.

He did not put the silver vault in the royal city, but in the flower building outside. It can be seen that this guy likes to hide silver.

The silver vault in front of him is not small, similar to the underground space that Yang Zhengshan found in the prefectural government office in Anyuan City, and the entrance and exit are very simple. There is only a cellar outside to cover it. You can see this silver vault by moving away the sundries in the cellar.

Yang Zhengshan counted the boxes, about a thousand, which is one million taels of silver!

Looking at these boxes, Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and thought.

Although he was not short of silver, he felt uncomfortable not taking some of it.

After hesitating for a while, Yang Zhengshan put one-third of the boxes into the Lingquan space.

"Seal this place up and wait for Mr. Pang to come and let him deal with it!"

Returning to the ground, Yang Zhengshan instructed Yang Minghao.

"What about these women?" Yang Minghao looked at the women in the brothel.

Yang Zhengshan glanced at the madam, "Kill the madam and keep the others!"

It is obvious that this Xiuchun Garden must be related to King Qing. The other women may be innocent or forced, but the madam is definitely not innocent.

And the madam may know the amount of silver in the silver vault, so it is easier to kill them.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan didn't care much about people knowing that he had moved the silver in the silver vault. First, no one could find evidence. No one could find evidence if he took the silver away with the spiritual spring space. Second, it was the unspoken rule of the distribution of spoils.

Since it was spoils, the vanguard team would naturally eat the meat first. In the battle of the north, Yang Zhengshan and the soldiers of the Anyuan City garrison camp were the first to drink the soup. After the war, Wang Bin still gave them a lot of spoils.

These things could not be hidden from others, even the old emperor knew it clearly, but no one would pursue it.

The reason was very simple. The soldiers were fighting hard in the front, and you were unwilling to give them some meat to eat. That was really unreasonable.

So even if someone knew that Yang Zhengshan took the silver, no one would pursue it.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan left two-thirds of the silver, which was very authentic.
