“Young master, you’re thinking too much, it’s not that there are less medicinal materials, we have all the materials listed, it’s just the names that don’t match up, and the pharmacy wouldn’t release the goods, so I just brought over the patterns…”

While speaking, Housekeeper Liu took out a few patterns from his bosom.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yue’s face instantly lit up brightly.

She hurried forward a step and reached out to take the patterns.

“Does Uncle Liu mean that my uncle has all these medicinal materials?”

“All of them,” Housekeeper Liu steadied his breath and said assertively, “Our family controls half of the medicinal material market in Nanyue! How could we not have these items?”

Qi Yue felt her fingertips itch again.

“What does Uncle Liu mean then?”

After Housekeeper Liu’s explanation, Qi Yue finally understood that, except for the name of He Shouwu matching up, they had no idea what the other items on the list were.

They could only rely on the properties of the medicines Qi Yue had written down and had brought a few patterns for her to see if they matched.

As soon as Qi Yue saw them, she wanted to burst out laughing.

She had actually forgotten about this!

Previously, when she treated people, she usually gave them the finished medicine directly.

If there were prescriptions, they were also simple and commonly used.

The items on this list were all too precious and bizarre, hence they did not match the local names.

But these people actually called sea horses “sand wolves fish?”

She pursed her lips and annotated several patterns, also adding a few new ones.

The old housekeeper, thrilled, took the patterns and left.

Only then did Qi Yue exclaim, “Oh,” after a delayed reaction.

If this old housekeeper didn’t know her real identity, this act would have exposed her.

But soon she didn’t care anymore.

Now that she had Liu Zhinan as her uncle, she had nothing to fear.

The Emperor of Nanyue relied on the Liu family’s business to fill the national treasury!

Thinking of this, Qi Yue set a new goal for the upcoming action!

Capitalizing on the great turmoil in Fengdu, she must explore the Emperor of Nanyue’s national treasury!

That evening, the gates on all four sides of Fengdu City—east, south, west, and north—finally closed completely amid a faint creaking sound.

Lights gradually appeared on the streets, casting long shadows of people hurriedly returning home.

As usual, Qi Yue had dinner with the Liu family and left Baoyue Pavilion the moment she returned.

According to accurate information from both parties, there would be a major operation by the Imperial City Division tonight, and Ma Laotan, who entered the city recently, was also growing impatient.

The action was set for tonight.

In the night, Qi Yue, dressed in night travel clothes and with her face covered, followed, as did Qingzhu and the others.

With the help of insiders, Qi Yue quickly followed behind Ma Laotan.

She saw that he indeed led his men toward the residence of Vice Minister of Punishment Zhou Yuan.

This Zhou Yuan was the one who had kept a concubine and injured Ma Laoyao previously.

Although he was only the Vice Minister of Punishment, the current Chief of Staff had been sick and absent from work for a long time, leaving all the affairs of the Ministry of Punishment to Zhou Yuan.

One might say he held two positions, with high status and great authority, and he did not miss out on extracting benefits in his daily life.

The more Ma Laotan took, the better it was—all of it would be hers in the end.

Qi Yue smiled satisfiedly, “It seems our people have done well; this Ma Laotan really went to seek revenge!”

“Master is wise, Zhao Long is quick-reacting and ruthless. As soon as he went in, he took control of the group. Ma Laotan greatly respects him, almost fully compliant,”

“That’s good, have someone support from the outside, must make a big scene… There’s no problem with Zhao Chong, right?”

“Master, rest assured, the Imperial City Division doesn’t take this band of robbers seriously, all just a rabble; Zhao Chong will handle it well.”

“Let him handle it, before the matter blows up, Ma Laotan must not be caught.”

“Yes, Master.”

“What about Wolf Nine, any news yet?”

“No, our people have been watching him closely. This guy eats, sleeps, and does nothing else, unaware of why he’s even here.”

“Then leave him be for now, don’t bother with him.”

“Yes.”

Only after Ma Laotan’s men had all entered the Zhou Family’s residence did the two of them turn and leave.

Although Qi Yue wanted to follow Ma Laotan and snatch something slyly to teach the Wei Family a lesson,

before the situation escalated, it was risky for her to make a move as it might expose her.

After much consideration, she decided to take this opportunity to visit Han Linghe’s Imperial City.

The Nanyue Imperial City occupied a vast area, divided into the Inner Imperial City centered around the Emperor and the Outer Imperial City centered around the six governor’s offices.

The Outer Imperial City concentrated the various major offices of the Nanyue Court, heavily guarded.

In addition to the Imperial City Division patrolling here day and night, military officers from the Palace Front Division also patrolled regularly.

The Ministry of Revenue, controlling the empire’s finances comparable to a modern central bank, had a crucial location sandwiched between the Lesser Treasury Surveillance and the Armory Surveillance.

Without a doubt, entering and exiting this place unscathed was akin to undergoing a hellish trial.

Qi Yue lay on the rooftop of the neighboring Armory Surveillance, observing through a telescope for a while, her heart began to falter.

“Qingzhu, are you confident you can get in there?”

Qingzhu hesitated for a moment.

“I can, but getting out might take some effort!”

Qi Yue nodded in understanding.

Normally, protected places are easy to enter but hard to exit.

Especially places like the national treasury.

Inside, there must be intricate capture mechanisms or traps, once triggered, one shouldn’t expect to get out.

“Master, why not let me go in?” Qingzhu asked in a low voice.

Qi Yue glanced at him, continued observing through her telescope without a word.

Considering safety, Qingzhu’s suggestion was certainly sound.

She had come here mainly to find out if there was any silver in the Nanyue National Treasury.

She had already received news that over the past year, every two months, the Nanyue Court had been sending a large sum of silver taels to Gemidu City under the guise of disaster relief.

Gemidu City, located in the southern part of Nanyue and separated from Longnan Ridge and Nanling by a strait, produces seafood and pearls.

A few years ago when Nanyue was in close collaboration with Hu Chengxuan, Gemidu City was a very bustling port city with a wealthy populace.

After Hu Chengxuan’s death, Zhao Xiyan took over the Longnan County Government, and Gemidu City and Nanling ceased trade relations, waging their own battles.

But even so, it’s hard to believe that Gemidu City would be so impoverished as to need disaster relief.

Especially for a continuous year of disaster relief.

Who would believe such a thing when told?

Certainly not Qi Yue.

She had a premonition that this matter was definitely related to the sudden drop in Nanling’s seawater levels.

She felt it wasn’t a good sign.

Considering this, Qi Yue was even more determined to verify everything clearly.

“Qingzhu, the national treasury and the accounting office must be connected, right?!”

“Yes,” Qingzhu explained, “Under normal circumstances, the accounting office is located in the outer room of the treasury, usually kept closed. On days of incoming or outgoing accounts or during audit days, the manager responsible will open the door, and then use the corridor inside to enter the treasury.”
