What the hell does he mean by checking the water meter?
The eunuchs were stunned and then calmed down. After all, people in the palace wouldn't talk like that!
"This is the Second Prince's bedroom. Unauthorized people are not allowed to barge in. Leave now!"
One of the eunuchs with a higher status spoke in a deep voice.
Standing outside the door, Xu Que raised his eyebrows and smiled. "I am here under the orders of the Second Prince to help you guys pack up your belongings!"
"What?"
The eunuchs were stunned again.
The Second Prince has sent an outsider to help us?
No, this is not right!
The old eunuch asked suspiciously, "The Second Prince didn't ask us to pack anything. Who are you?"
Xu Que was amused.
He didn't ask you to pack your things?
You're lying through your teeth! I, the Act Tough King, heard everything clearly from the outside!
He suppressed his laughter and said in a low voice, "I brought His Royal Highness the Second Prince's Storage Ring with me to collect the treasures. It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, but if His Royal Highness blames me … I can't do anything about it!"
The eunuchs in the room were stunned.
Could he really be someone sent by the Second Prince?
"Steward Liu, what should we do now?"
The eunuchs looked at each other and couldn't make up their minds.
The old eunuch, Steward Liu, was quite experienced. He said in a low voice, "This person doesn't seem to be lying! The Second Prince should know that we can't move so many things away. So, it's possible that he sent someone to bring the Storage Ring here! "
"Oh, we can check the Storage Ring first. If it's the one worn by the Second Prince, it should be true!"
"Take the things away first. I'll open the door!"
After a brief discussion, they decided to check Xu Que's Storage Ring first.
Squeak!
One of the eunuchs opened the door cautiously. When he saw Xu Que standing outside the room, he was a little surprised. Why is it a young man?
Xu Que raised the Storage Ring in his hand and said solemnly, "This is the Storage Ring of His Royal Highness the Second Prince. It can't be faked. Inside it are the clothes that His Royal Highness the Second Prince usually wears. If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself!"
The eunuchs glanced over and were visibly moved.
"It really is His Highness's storage ring!"
"The name of the second prince is engraved on that obsidian stone!"
"Furthermore, there's His Highness's aura on it. This ring is genuine and is indeed worn by His Highness!"
All of a sudden, their doubts about Xu Que were swept away. They cupped their hands in obeisance and said with a smile, "Little brother, I apologize for offending you just now!"
"It's alright. We're all working for the Second Prince. I understand! Seeing how cautious you are, I feel gratified for His Highness the Second Prince! "
Xu Que also cupped his hands and said with a smile, instantly closing the distance between him and the eunuchs!
After that, he made up some nonsense, saying that the Emperor knew that the Second Prince had hidden treasures and was preparing to send people to search for them, so they had to move everything as soon as possible.
When the eunuchs heard that, they became anxious.
No wonder the Second Prince would send such an urgent secret order. It turned out that the Emperor was sending people over!
"Quick, move them quickly!"
"But His Highness's storage ring can't hold so many things. We need at least a few storage rings to move those things in the secret chamber!"
The two eunuchs said with a frown.
Xu Que waved his hand and said, "It's alright. His Highness has already given me his storage ring. Everyone, move the things out and stack them together. We must make it look like we're penniless for the Emperor to see!"
"So, His Highness has prepared everything! That's great!" The eunuchs were overjoyed and started to move the precious items in the chamber.
Xu Que also started to give orders.
"This way, this way. Yes, we must move all the valuable items out!"
"That blue and white porcelain!"
"Eh, what's this? A chamber pot? A jade chamber pot? Forget it, I don't want that. It's too smelly! "
"Collect those flowers, yes, all of them. We must let the emperor know that His Royal Highness, the second prince, lives in poverty and can't even afford to raise flowers. He is a good example of a diligent and thrifty person who loves his country and people!"
Xu Que gave all kinds of orders as he searched for everything in the chamber.
At this time, a eunuch walked out of the secret chamber. He carefully took out a box and put it aside, as if he didn't want Xu Que to see it.
However, Xu Que's shifty eyes immediately locked onto the eunuch.
This damn eunuch was watching it so closely. It must be something good.
Since it's something good, I can't miss it …
"Stop! What are you holding? Let me see! Don't hide it. Since His Highness has given me his storage ring, don't you trust me? Don't worry, we're on the same side. There are no secrets! "
After much persuasion, Xu Que finally managed to get the box from the eunuch.
The moment he opened it, he was dumbfounded!
Inside, there was a pile of brightly colored cloth, and it even emitted a faint fragrance.
"Damn, what's this? Underwear? Why are there so many underwear? What did you say? Is this the Empress Dowager's? Cough, cough. Keep it, keep it. Put it here! "
Xu Que had discovered something incredible, and his worldview was almost going to collapse!
This damn pervert actually had such a horrifying hobby. He had secretly kept the Empress Dowager's underwear.
If this eunuch hadn't foolishly taken it out of the secret chamber, he wouldn't have discovered this big secret!
"This is going to be fun!"
The corner of Xu Que's mouth curled up as he continued to search!
Xu Que did not feel the slightest bit of guilt for this "raid".
Although acting tough was as important and natural as breathing, Xu Que would never act tough recklessly, nor would he insult a good person recklessly.
Before he came, he had done his research and found out that the Second Prince had never been popular with the people. He had been extorting wealth from the people all day long. He had hoarded a lot of treasures and wealth, waiting to fight for the throne.
Sure enough, the Second Prince had hoarded a lot of treasures in the palace.
Therefore, Xu Que wouldn't be courteous to such a black-bellied prince. Since he had come to the Second Prince's treasure vault, he had to follow the three policies of "take it all, cheat it all, steal it all".
...
Xu Que and the rest of them were very busy. After filling up the storage ring, Xu Que summoned the System and threw all the items into the System Storage Space.
Ever since the system had been upgraded to version 3.0, the storage space had become shockingly large. He could even dig out the entire palace and put it in!
However, Xu Que believed that he was a man with a bottom line. Moving the entire palace would definitely alarm too many people. Therefore, he decided not to move the palace for now!
Yes, not for now!
