CH 210 Xiao Feng started the investigation
*****
Xiao Feng was now in the back yard of his residence sipping tea while Chen Nian returned to his residence with Feng Xi.
"It's weird why women get along so quickly" Xiao Feng muttered with a smile as he recalled Feng Xi and Chen Nian conversing together. Shortly thereafter Yuan Li appeared.
"Prince!" yuan Li said in a salute.
"What's Yuan Li?" asked Xiao Feng
"Should my men have told me that the Third Prince has already interrogated two divisions and suspects that Chen Zhou?" replied Yuan Li.
"Suspicious of Chen Zhou? suspect in what?"
"According to reports that treasury money was stolen and the Third Prince suspected Chen Zhou as the main culprit in the loss" Yuan Li said.
"Hmm, what do you think Chen Zhou did?"
"I don't think I've met Chen Nian and he's guaranteed that people from his clan won't do that"
"That's also what I thought because as long as I knew that Chen Zhou was clean and honest and law-abiding let alone the head of the Chen Nian clan who was resolute indiscriminately, Chen Zhou was a strict person, currently punishing that corruption is more important in the eyes of father if I participate will all be chaotic, so our step is to find that money before Xiao Jun investigates it" Xiao Feng said.
"Will the prince move himself?"
"Surely this time I will investigate myself, you tried to convey a message to Chen Nian to sneak into the prison, I'm sure Chen Zhou is currently detained. Tell him to tell the truth" Xiao Feng said.
"Good Prince!" said Yuan Li then leaving Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng also got up and walked towards somewhere.
At night Xiao Feng accompanied by Feng Xi moved towards the treasury, they were wearing the typical assassin clothes that were all black and face coverings so that only left his two eyes alone, they removed his aura and went straight inside.
"This time is missing money and the state treasuries" Xiao Feng said
"However, there is something strange, if you intend to steal why along with the notebook" Feng Xi said as he looked at the closet in front of him.
"That's why Xiao Jun dragged Chen Zhou over because he was in charge of the notebook containing the country's financial income and expenditure, to corroborate the evidence there must be a book otherwise Chen Zhou would be difficult regardless of the accusations" Xiao Feng said.
"To protect the notebook is usually stored in a small box and mounted an array and then put it in the top cabinet" Xiao Feng said as he pointed up at the tall cupboard. Feng Xi looked around and his gaze was fixed on the tile of the front room of the closet slightly cracked.
"Why is the floor in front of this closet cracked?" said Feng Xi while bending down to feel the tiles. Xiao Feng also immediately looked.
"Hmm, it looks like this is the mark of someone's leap, since only an ordinary cultivator in the Earth Realm would leave a trace when he was about to fly" Xiao Feng analyzed.
"I think so too"
"It looks like we got a little hint, let's go before anyone gets here" Xiao Feng said then held Feng Xi's hand and they teleported to Xiao Feng's residence.
*****
The next day Xiao Feng and Feng Xi were in the back yard of the residence and were accompanied by Yuan Li.
"Of course I'll take as much as I can" Feng Xi replied
"Right, but the fact that the money was lost all means that there are two possibilities, the first one they have a storage ring and the second they have more than two people to carry the chest" Xiao Feng said.
"However if it's true they have a storage ring how do we find it?"
"Easy as it is, those who are told will definitely not just leave the capital but they are waiting for another order and bring the money as collateral, he said, because it is impossible if the person who told him would just let go of the least money they would use to transact either in a restaurant or a brothel. Because the gold coins have a special mark of the kingdom" Xiao Feng explained.
"Then are we going to move now?" asked Feng Xi.
"Of course, but we have to comb through every restaurant and brothel in the capital" Xiao Feng said.
"Just calm down, I will tell people to do it" said Yuan Li who stood behind Xiao Feng.
"Good then, let's move" Xiao Feng asked and then got up and followed Feng Xi. The three walked out of the residence.
*****
It was currently the day before noon that Xiao Feng and Feng Xi were walking around the capital, they were only wearing ordinary clothes for disguises. They entered a restaurant and happened to be crowded.
"Welcome Mr and Miss" said the waiter
"Is there an empty table?" xiao Feng said as he looked at the table filled with people.
"There's a master on the second floor but it's a little expensive"
"Hmm how is this, we don't have any more coins" Feng Xi said and just then entered the two men around 40s dressed as typical cultivators, Xiao Feng sensed from his aura the two men were in the Earth Realm.
"Hoho you're short on money huh, how about we help?" said the wrong-one cultivator, Xiao Feng and Feng Xi averted his gaze.
"Thank you master cultivator yet why did master suddenly help us?" xiao Feng asked as he cupped both hands. The two people looked at each other for a moment then looked at Xiao Feng and Feng Xi.
"Indeed we need your help, I see the girl next to you is so pretty what if she accompanies you for a drink?" said one of the men, Xiao Feng pretended to be surprised and put on a face as if unwilling.
"Mmmm isn't there anything else sir?"
"Well, if you want, if the girl accompanies us you will also be able to enjoy food and drinks here, how"
Xiao Feng looked towards Feng Xi and the girl simply nodded.
"Okay sir, thank you"
"Well that's the case, the waiter prepares the best food and drink here and delivers it to the second floor" said the man, giving three gold coins. Xiao Feng smiled faintly looking at the gold coins there was a special mark of the kingdom.
They then walked to the second floor and immediately sat on his desk, Xiao Feng himself and Feng Xi sitting in front of the two men. Shortly after the maid came to bring their order, unbeknownst to others as the servant passed by Xiao Feng Xiao Feng's right hand moving silently to the small pill into the unclosed wine jar. The waiter then arranged the dishes and wine and left the room.
