"Prepare the carriage! We're going to Prince Xin's Estate!"
After sitting woodenly for a long while, Lu Boyan spoke in a weak, listless voice. He had just been overcome by a murderous impulse, yet he knew that killing Zhao Yi was an immensely difficult task. Furthermore, murdering an imperial prince was a crime punishable by the extermination of one's entire clan. Lu Boyan lacked the courage for such a gamble. Since eleven of his plundered businesses were actually owned by the Fourth Prince, he had no choice but to go and consult him.
At Prince Xin's Estate, the Fourth Prince and Guo Jin were passing by the waterside pavilion when they inadvertently overheard two servants leaning against the pillars of a corridor, gossiping about the miraculous event of silver falling from the sky. Curious, the Fourth Prince and Guo Jin inquired further, only to learn that many people had woken up that morning to find silver in their homes—anywhere from three to five taels, and in some cases, as much as several dozen. The servants sounded deeply envious, wondering why such good fortune hadn't graced Prince Xin's Estate. While a mere few dozen taels were of no consequence to the Fourth Prince, he found the matter rather amusing.
