Xiao Yu had refused to take the chests back, and if she had someone deliver them to the Prince Mansion, she worried the Prince or Princess Consort might find out, which could stir up all sorts of trouble.
She opened one chest to find it filled with antiques.
She opened another, and inside lay one thousand taels of gold, its brilliant gleam nearly blinding Gu Fei's eyes.
This chest also contained several property deeds. Gu Fei opened one of the land deeds and her eyes widened. It was for over five hundred mu of land in a location that seemed to be not far from her own family's property. 'This is great stuff!'
There were several other land deeds. Gu Fei gave them a cursory glance and estimated that, all together, they amounted to nearly two thousand mu.
Gu Fei also looked at the property deeds for the buildings. There was one for a three-courtyard mansion in Ping'an City and three for storefronts, all in prime locations.
