The prince of love, the wealth has come to me

Chapter 168 Go to the Treasury to Pick Treasures

The Queen Mother frowned, "How is this possible? As the ruler of a country, it is no joke to start a war with the whole country."

"Well, who said it wasn't? But it's better to be safe than sorry." Ling Yueqing looked worried, and the empress dowager was stunned.

They only knew that the emperor of Qi State was changed, but they didn't know why.

"If that's the case, then Yuning's marriage is really going to be a hassle. Let me think about it again."

Xiao Mingchen stood up and said, "Mother, please consider this carefully. Your son and Qing'er will take their leave first."

"Go." The Queen Mother no longer cared about the two of them.

The old prime minister is a fence-sitter. He originally wanted to give him some benefits and marry the princess into their family, so that even if there is a change of dynasty in the future, they will still be royal relatives. Now that this kind of thing has happened, this plan is likely to be ruined.

After Xiao Mingchen and Ling Yueqing walked out, Xiao Mingchen whispered, "Did everything go well? Did you give the letter to Yu Ning?"

"Of course, mission accomplished."

"Qingqing is indeed excellent, and what she said just now was really wonderful. In this way, Yuning will never be able to marry into the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Ling Yueqing smiled and said, "It was just a sudden thought, so I just said it casually. But the follow-up matters will depend on Achen."

"Qingqing, don't worry. I will make proper arrangements so that they won't find anything unusual."

"Hey? Aren't we going back to the palace?" Ling Yueqing suddenly realized that the direction they were heading was not the way out of the palace.

"Yes, let's go find the emperor first and tell him the results of the investigation over the past two days."

"it is good."

As she was walking, Ling Yueqing suddenly remembered, "Oh, come to think of it, at the Heroes' Banquet a few days ago, the Emperor promised me to go to the National Treasury and pick three things. It's been a while, so it should still count, right?"

"Of course, you are not joking."

"Okay, then I'll take you there later. Otherwise, I don't know when I'll be able to enter the palace next time."

"it is good."

After Xiao Mingchen went in to talk to Emperor Qianyang, Ling Yueqing asked the eunuch serving at the palace gate to take her to the treasury to pick something.

Anyway, it was none of her business what they were talking about, so she might as well go and choose first. After all, it was getting late and she should go back later.

"May I know what your name is, eunuch?" Ling Yueqing randomly picked a lucky eunuch and asked.

The eunuch who was named immediately bowed with fear and trepidation, "Princess, I am a small servant."

"Little Mouse?" Ling Yueqing asked doubtfully. This little eunuch had thick eyebrows and big eyes, but she didn't expect him to be given such a name. It seems that not all people nicknamed Mouse have shifty eyes.

"Princess, yes. My mother told me that when I cried, the sound was very similar to that of a horn, so she named me Zhang Hao. After I entered the palace, everyone called me Xiao Haozi."

"Oh, I see." It turned out to be such a small trumpet.

"Little guy, please come with me to the treasury."

"Yes, this way, Princess."

Ling Yueqing's behavior at the Banquet of Heroes had already spread throughout Shengjing, so Xiaohaozi naturally knew about it.

Along the way, Ling Yueqing was bored and chatted with Xiaohaozi.

"Little Haozi, why did you enter the palace to be a eunuch?" Looking at his expression when he talked about his mother just now, it was obvious that he was nostalgic and happy, and there was no trace of grief on his face. It seemed that she was still alive.

"My dear Princess, a natural disaster occurred in my hometown, and all the land and property in my family were lost. My parents and I traveled all the way north to Shengjing."

"But I didn't have any skills, so I couldn't find a job. My mother had just given birth to my younger brother and was very weak. My younger brother was almost starving to death and cried all day long."

"At this time, the palace just issued a notice to recruit eunuchs, so my father wanted to come. But they thought my father was too old and didn't want him, so I came."

Ling Yueqing felt a little emotional. It turned out that no matter what era it was, the gap between the rich and the poor was always so huge.

Some people spend money like water, throwing away huge amounts of money to win the smile of a beautiful woman; some people castrate themselves for a living, just to keep their families alive.

"Do you regret it now?"

The little hawker shook his head and said, "No, I get paid every month now. I asked Mr. Liang to take leave to send the money home. Now we don't have to worry about food and clothes anymore, and my brother has grown fat and white."

"Princess, you don't know, my brother is so cute. Every time he sees me, he calls me brother in a soft and sweet way, which makes my heart melt."

When talking about his younger brother, Xiaohaozi's expression softened noticeably, and his tone was full of pride.

Seeing Ling Yueqing didn't say anything, the little trumpeter hurriedly said, "Princess, have I talked too much?"

"No." Ling Yueqing smiled and said, "Your brother is indeed very cute. If you have any interesting stories, you can share them with me."

When talking about his younger brother, Xiaohaozi starts talking nonstop.

Seeing his beaming face, Ling Yueqing felt a little distressed. All he cared about was his family's lives, but never thought about himself.

After all, he was just a teenager. In modern times, he should still be in high school.

Ling Yueqing kept looking at him and smiling, asking a few questions from time to time, or expressing her agreement.

Soon, the treasury arrived.

The trumpeter said, "Princess, we have arrived at the treasury. That means I cannot go in, so I will wait for you here."

"it is good."

Ling Yueqing looked over and saw two large golden characters written on it - National Treasury. There were two guards standing at the door.

It's like telling the little thieves clearly, big brother, I am the national treasury, the treasury filled with treasures, come and steal from me.

However, Ling Yueqing also knew that the national treasury must be no simple matter. She could clearly feel the presence of many people from all directions, even though she couldn't see them.

Moreover, the aura of many masters is hidden very well, so she cannot detect it.

Ling Yueqing walked over, and the two guards immediately saluted, "Your humble servants greet the princess."

"Stand up, the emperor once promised this princess that she could choose three things from the national treasury. Do you know?"

A guard said, "Of course I know. Eunuch Liang has already instructed that the princess can come over at any time and go in directly. Princess, please."

The two of them made way and Ling Yueqing walked over.

After the lock was opened, Ling Yueqing walked in. The national treasury was larger than the private treasury of the palace and contained more things, but Ling Yueqing was not very surprised.

Although the items in the national treasury are valuable, they are not as rare and precious as the treasures in the royal palace, which make people feel bright.

Ling Yueqing felt that she had really fallen, but now seeing so many valuable things, she actually felt calm again.

Ling Yueqing looked at them row by row, picking them up from time to time to look at them, and then putting them back.

Suddenly her eyes lit up.
