Chapter 386: Chapter 386: Who Gave You the Right!

When Tong Tiehu and Tong Sanlang arrived, Yang Ye and Qiao Xiaomai were also there.
Yang Ye was also staying in Anping Village, and of course, he had to be informed about the big event of the village being excavated.
Yang Ye was originally in a good mood, enjoying a delicious iced fruit smoothie and cold noodles. Suddenly hearing such unsettling news, he left his full dining table and hurried to the entrance of the village.
Naturally, Qiao Xiaomai followed him.
Dig up the village?
What the hell!
Has Cen Hong lost his mind?!
“Cen Hong! Who gave you the right to dig up the village?! You’re just a general! What gives you the right to deploy soldiers to dig up a large village where five thousand people live?!” YangYe’s face was dark with anger as he shouted.
Cen Hong calmly replied, “To answer your question, Your Highness, it is very likely that a secret treasure buried by the former dynasty resides beneath Anping Village. Your Highness, you are aware that in recent years there have been many natural disasters, and the court’s treasury is depleted due to disaster relief.”
“If we were to recover this treasure for the National Treasury, it would greatly increase the power of our Daqi, and His Majesty would no longer have to worry about this.”
He knew that Yang Ye had said a lot of bad things about him, so this treasure hunt was not only to assist Yang Wang but also a chance for him to redeem himself and make up for his past mistakes.
With such a great achievement, the Emperor Yong’an would certainly ignore his previous small errors.
Upon hearing this, YangYe’s face darkened even further. He was pretending to be in Daqi’s best interests, he had not known before that Cen Hong had such deep feelings for Daqi.
“Then I ask you, after you’ve dug up the village, where will the villagers live? How are you planning to accommodate five thousand people, young and old?” Angered, Yang Ye pointed towards the village behind them, “That is their home! They have lived there for decades!”
“Nowyou are preparing to dig up their homes and ancestral graves in order to search for a possibly nonexistent treasure without even consulting them! Cen Hong, who do you think you are? Even my imperial father would not be so reckless!”
Because of his background, both he and the retired Emperor Yong’an did not feel superior or condescending towards commoners due to their noble status.
The Yang Family were originally landlords. They seized Mount Jiang during the chaos of the previous dynasty. It had only been fifty years, even if they forgot their origin, they wouldn’t forget so quickly.
If Emperor Yong’an was here, he would surely first communicate with the villagers, then provide compensation for relocation, and only then would he start digging once the residents of Anping Village were properly settled.
Even the retired Emperor Yong’an wouldn’t be as arrogant and domineering as you, a mere general- who do you think you are?
“In response to Your Highness’ question, the situation is urgent and leaves no other choice.” replied Cen Hong.
“Urgent? What’s so urgent? Why was I not aware that this matter had suddenly become urgent? ” Fire blazed in Yang Yefeng’s eyes.
“Your Highness, please calm down, it’s like this. When Your Highness and Prince Duan first entered the secret tunnel and basement, nothing was unusual about the tunnel, but the basement was noticeably different.”
“Logically, the basement should be as dust-laden as the tunnel, but the basement was exceptionally clean except for the dust in the corners.”
“So, Prince Duan and I both believe that the treasure had just been moved.”
“Such a large treasure could not have been transported out quietly. It must still be in Anping Village. Therefore, Prince Duan and I have no choice but to start digging as soon as possible to find the treasure.”
At these words from Cen Hong, Yang Ye just snorted.
He’s not blind; he naturally noticed the condition of the basement, but he had no intention of expending any more effort on searching, so he acted like he hadn’t noticed anything.
At the same time, Tong Sanlang and Tong Tiehu showed the appropriate level of shock.
The pair of course had seen the state of the basement, but given the circumstances, they could not take any action.
Later, Cen Hong and Yang Wang brought so many people over that Tong Sanlang lost the opportunity to get back into the secret tunnel.
So this loophole just remained.
They had originally planned to firmly deny everything since there was no evidence, but they didn’t expect Cen Hong to actually decide to dig up the village.
What a maniac!
