After the Empress Dowager said this, the Emperor Retired and the Emperor also stared at Zhou Qiongyue eagerly.

Seeing her aunt showing such concern for her, Zhou Qiongyue smiled even brighter. "Don't worry, aunt, there's nothing wrong with it."

Emperor Li Jingchen was so excited that he wanted to pat Zhou Qiongyue on the shoulder, "Cousin, you are truly my God of Wealth."

Zhou Qiongyue jumped behind the empress dowager like a rabbit.

The Queen Mother quickly slapped Li Jingchen's hand and said, "Just talk, don't touch me."

Li Jingchen exaggeratedly covered his hand that had just been hit by the Queen Mother, and looked at her with a wronged look, "Mother, you don't like your son anymore..."

"Oh, then you probably don't need this money. Yue'er, put it away quickly. Your cousin and uncle don't need it." The Queen Mother said as she was about to collect the account books herself.

The Queen Mother felt that the father and son were spoiled, and they were doing bad things even after getting the money for free.

Li Jingchen quickly held down the account book and looked at his mother and cousin with a pleading expression, "Yes, yes, yes, I want it! Mother, I know you treat me the best, better than anyone else."

Zhou Qiongyue was behind her aunt, watching her aunt and the emperor fighting with a smile.

The retired emperor was quite happy to see the mother and son making such a fuss. His heart, which had been shocked by the silver in the account book, was relieved a lot.

"Shuxian is a capable woman. The account books you submitted before didn't show so much silver?" The emperor didn't question Zhou Qiongyue. He was just curious.

When Zhou Qiongyue heard the emperor ask this, she knew that the emperor didn't look at the account book she handed over seriously. He probably only looked at the remaining silver at the back and didn't care where the rest of the silver went.

Zhou Qiongyue still explained seriously: "Reply to the Emperor..."

The Emperor smiled and stroked his beard, gently correcting Zhou Qiongyue's address, "Why call me Emperor? That's too distant. Call me uncle!"

Zhou Qiongyue could only change the address and said, "Reporting to my uncle, in the past few years, all the money was used for business, so there was not much surplus in the account.

When you announced your abdication, I transferred the money out and stopped doing many businesses.

This time, I will hand all of these over to my cousin, the Emperor."

After Zhou Qiongyue finished speaking, she opened another box, which contained some storefronts purchased for business purposes, as well as the corresponding indentures of the servants.

The retired emperor took a quick look and was quite surprised to see that there were shops not only from Tianyuan Kingdom, but also from other neighboring countries. However, he did not know the person who registered the land deeds.

"Your cousin is not good at managing these things, so why don't you help your cousin manage them, Shuxian?"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, he saw Shuxian's expression of despair. The emperor quickly added: "Shuxian, don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly. If you want anything, just go to your cousin."

Zhou Qiongyue has always believed that if you want something, you have to say it out loud, otherwise no one can guess it!

"Uncle, I just want to stay home and take care of my husband and children. To be honest, Uncle, I've been so stressed out in business these past few years that I've been unable to sleep all night, fearing that something might go wrong. My hair is falling out in clumps."

After Zhou Qiongyue finished speaking, the three people at the scene all looked at Zhou Qiongyue's head.

Zhou Qiongyue: Are you polite?

But she couldn't afford to offend these three people, so she could only let them watch. Fortunately, she had specially asked Gu Le to apply hair oil today and also asked Gu Le to comb her hair into a hairstyle that made her hair look thinner.

Otherwise, she would be exposed for what she said.

The Queen Mother and the other three did not stare at her for long. They only glanced a few times before looking away.

The Queen Mother touched Zhou Qiongyue's hand distressedly, "Yue'er's hair looks a lot thinner than before."

The emperor really didn't want his cousin, the God of Wealth, to be fishing in the palace at such a young age. "How about, cousin, whose hair do you like? I'll have someone cut it and make it for you as a wig?"

Zhou Qiongyue: When it comes to dogs, my second cousin’s dog is the best.

Seeing Yue'er like this, the Queen Mother spoke up for Zhou Qiongyue and said, "Your Majesty, please take over! The court is so big, can't you find someone who can take care of these things?

Yue'er has laid the foundation, you just need to maintain or even improve on it, how can it be so difficult?"

The Queen Mother said this because she felt that Yue'er's ability to earn money was too great. She was worried that if she really earned too much, the father and son would not only forget her kindness, but would also be wary of her.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was soft-hearted and protective, the Emperor stepped forward and forcefully supported her, "Shi'er, walk with me."

Before leaving, the emperor gave Li Jingchen a look that clearly said, "Tell him not to give up on the God of Wealth in front of him!"

As soon as the Emperor and Empress Dowager left, Li Jingchen immediately became more casual in his sitting posture. He felt that he didn't need to care so much in front of his sister.

Zhou Qiongyue knew what the emperor's cousin was thinking by looking at his expression. At this moment, Zhou Qiongyue really wanted to tell the emperor about the political economics and Western economics in her previous life.

Unfortunately, I can only think about it, it is impossible to talk about it.

"Your Majesty, this silver should be enough to fight the Holy Land. We have also stored up a lot of food and fodder. As for the rest, they can't be solved with just silver."

The emperor actually agreed with Zhou Qiongyue's words, but who could dislike having too much silver? Of course, he also wanted as much silver as possible:

"How about you manage it like this first, cousin? The scale can be reduced by half, so you don't have to work so hard. The main reason is that I have just ascended the throne, and I really don't have anyone capable in this area."

Zhou Qiongyue leaned back in her chair casually after hearing this. "Does this mean that I, a concubine, must be in charge?"

This result is not good news for Zhou Qiongyue.

Emperor Li Jingchen looked at the irritation in his cousin's eyes and nodded. Then he sat a little further away silently. Although he was the emperor now, his cousin should not be able to inherit the throne.

However, the emperor still felt that it would be better for both his cousin and himself to sit further away and discuss the matter. He was trying to prevent his cousin from making any mistakes.

The emperor even thought seriously about what he would do if his cousin really took action. After thinking for a long time, he only had one answer: to silently pretend that nothing had happened.

He didn't want to vent his anger on his uncle and his family because his cousin had spent most of her childhood growing up with the Queen Mother. As for venting his anger on Yuan Bohua, he was his good friend and had always been loyal to him.

As for beating up his cousin, oh, by then his imperial study will probably be flooded with his mother's tears.

The emperor thought about it and felt that he didn't have anything to reward him. He couldn't bear to give away anything too expensive, and his ordinary cousin didn't want it. "How about I give you Jiakang'er a place to study in the palace?"

Zhou Qiongyue shook her head without hesitation, "My daughter's Kang'er doesn't like to study, he just likes to be a playboy."
