Chapter 227 Large sum of money
"I'll find a way."
This was the last words Yue Pengyu left for Yue Tianci.
As the servants in Hengjian Villa were arrested and thrown into the Yunsu City Prison one by one, the empty Hengjian Villa became increasingly desolate.
The study was smashed into a mess. King Youshan ordered people from Yunsu City to break open the secret room, and they discovered the valuable collection that Lou Xiao had seen.
The two of them were whispering while supervising the work.
"These are things that even I don't have. Even the small Hengjian Villa is so wealthy, I wonder how much wealth there is in Yunsu City."
Xiao Zhengdu narrowed his eyes, thinking of the merchants in Yunsu City, "Your Majesty, the treasury should be filled up. The renovation of the palace is imminent, and it is a good opportunity to find some good men to serve Your Majesty."
Lou Xiao didn't react much to the boxes of jewels and jade that were carried out, "It's okay, why does the national treasury need these fancy things, the real money is the most important.
Don't let the people in Yunsu City hear you saying this, or they will be scared to death."
The governor who was standing aside bowed and waiting, "..."
Just pretend to be dead.
"Aren't you satisfied with the service in the palace? I saw that the guy before was quite favored."
Although Lou Xiao often went to the palace, she always avoided contact with her senior sister's harem, always feeling that no one was worthy of her.
"Of course the more the better." Xiao Zhengdu glanced at the governor, and she immediately stepped back tactfully and turned around.
"Having a child born soon is the most important thing. Only with a successor can the court be stabilized—"
He seemed to have remembered something, "It is better to settle the hearts of the civil and military officials."
Lou Xiao retorted, "How can children stabilize the court? Your Majesty is wise and powerful, so they must obey you wholeheartedly and govern the world with you."
She felt that these officials were so idle that they did not do their job properly and instead were staring at their senior sister's harem.
But if this is what Senior Sister wants - although Lou Xiao is not very willing, she thinks that Yun Sucheng may pick a few people with good physique and good in all aspects to serve Senior Sister.
The first person that came to my mind was Yu Heng, but I quickly rejected him.
A man who entered the harem would have no chance of passing the imperial examination, and there had been many rumors about him and her these days. If he entered the palace, he was afraid that his senior sister would dislike him.
She wondered if there was any man she liked these days, and finally she had to admit that it seemed natural that Li Huaiqing almost became the queen.
Once you have met him, it will be difficult to meet anyone more suitable.
But if Li Huaiqing really became Senior Sister's man, then -
She probably won't enter the palace again.
"I didn't even know when you were assigned the task of finding your husband for His Majesty. I thought the affairs of Hengjian Villa were enough of a headache for you." Lou Xiao teased.
"It was just a casual remark." Xiao Zhengdu stood up straight and heard someone running out of the study.
"Your Highness! My Lord, there is indeed a hidden secret underneath!"
There is money.
Xiao Zhengdu showed his surprise without hiding it, "Smash the study for me, dig out all the stolen money carefully."
It would be even better if we could get some money from Yunsu City.
Xiao Zhengdu, who is obsessed with money, still did not let go of the wealthy businessmen in Yunsu City.
"His Majesty's imperial edict is coming soon. What should we do with Yue Pengyu and the others?"
Lou Xiao turned her head and looked at Yue Tianci who was secretly watching from the corner, "That child had some talent for calligraphy. It's a pity that he died."
But she had no right to pity them on behalf of the dead soldiers on the border, even though she also admired Yue Pengyu's talent.
