Chapter 398: Wang Fu Army: Orders Carried Out, Prohibitions Observed

When Jiang Yunchu lit a lamp, the others also reacted, the lamps were lit one by one, and only then did everyone see clearly what was inside.

It was no longer a stone cave, but a large space, inside were shelves, and on the shelves were boxes.

"Everyone who came here today is me, Jiang Yunchu, and those trusted by the Regent Prince's Manor. I hope that when you leave this mountain, you forget everything that happened inside, what you saw, what you heard—all of it."

Her gaze was like condensed ice; for a moment, her aura also pressed down.

What is this? There was some information from the investigation, but only after coming here did we realize it was far from complete.

"Yes!"

"Princess Consort, the Wang Fu army carries out orders and observes prohibitions." The person leading the Wang Fu army stepped forward, clasped fists, and looked solemn.

Jiang Yunchu chuckled lightly, "This matter could be big or small; if it gets out, it's a head‑rolling offense—no one will escape."

She walked forward and opened a box.

Those gleaming weapons, under the lamp in her hand, reflected a soft light.

Everyone stared wide‑eyed; they had seen many scenes by now, but on these shelves there were over a hundred boxes, and if they were all weapons…

They dared not imagine where these weapons would flow, or whose hands they would end up in.

Jiang Yunchu narrowed her eyes; even though she had already guessed, she was still shocked by the sheer number.

"Mother, here." At that moment, Ning Hanmo opened a secret room and shouted loudly.

I don't know if it was because the sound was too loud or a chain reaction of the secret room, but the stone door at the outside entrance slowly closed.

Everyone's heart jolted……

Jiang Yunchu took the lamp in her hand and walked to Ning Hanmo's side; only when she saw the secret room did she finally let out a full breath of relief.

The secret room was not large, but it was filled with bookshelves that recorded all the weapons' outbound logs and the grain's inbound records; there were few other documents. Jiang Yunchu, while the crowd had not yet arrived, had Ning Hanmo stand at the gate, she blocked everyone's view, first collected the letters, fearing someone might sneak them away.

"Princess Consort, the situation here, I'm afraid we can't let it be sent out." The captain of the Wang Fu army, looking at Jiang Yunchu, said with some worry.

If this situation were leaked, it would surely cause an uproar; this is Jiang family territory, and it could implicate the distant frontier general. Without a general on the frontier, people would find loopholes, and then the various armies would likely fall into chaos.

Having thought this through, the captain broke out in a cold sweat behind him.

If one claimed the Jiang family did this, nobody would believe it; the Princess Consort is a Jiang family daughter, and if her natal family had done it, she could not possibly bring people here in a grand show.

"Wait." Jiang Yunchu shook her head and said nothing.

As for what we are waiting for, nobody knows.

"Let's see if there are any other secret rooms." Is there only one secret room? Why was this secret room opened? Just to store ledgers?

It doesn't feel right.

At that moment, the stone door that had just been closed was opened by the people left outside.

The person who had just been worried finally let go of their anxiety.

The slowly growing irritability of the heart also gradually eased.

Two quarter‑hours passed…

"Princess Consort!"

At the same time, Ning Hanmo also struck a place with a different sound, "Mother, there's a problem here."

These two sounds seemed to trigger some mechanism; several abnormal spots were found one by one, "Here."

"Princess Consort, here."
