After knowing that his daughter was God's disciple, Emperor Donglin has been thinking about how to reverse Xiao Ruoyi's reputation.
As long as Xiao Ruoyi can gain the love of the people and be an ordinary and successful concubine for Concubine Liang, it will be convenient for him to do some things in the future.
It has long been known that the Minister of Revenue is corrupt and accepts bribes. In this case, let's make full use of him.
Especially the Queen and the Third Prince knew about the Queen Mother's movements, and Emperor Donglin naturally knew about it as well.
When Concubine Shu sent people to find the Queen Mother, he didn't react for a while, so he didn't send anyone to intercept them. This allowed Concubine Shu's people to successfully inform the Queen Mother, and she knew about it.
Upon hearing that he had released Concubine Liang and her daughter and restored Concubine Liang's position, the Empress Dowager could no longer sit still and was about to bring people back to the palace.
It was not until later when his younger brother sent him a pigeon letter that he found out. If his younger brother had not stopped him, it would have arrived in the past two days.
However, they couldn't stop her for long, as the Queen Mother was about to set off for the palace, which was only a few days' journey away.
Therefore, he must build up momentum for Xiao Ruoyi in the next few days and not let the Queen Mother do anything to harm Concubine Liang and her daughter!
As long as the reputation of Xiao Ruoyi being a lucky star spreads, the Queen Mother will also think twice.
...
...
In addition, the investigation into Concubine Shu's frame-up is about to come to an end, and Concubine Liang's crime is tantamount to slander, so the Empress Dowager will not harbor any resentment towards Concubine Liang and her daughter.
And the most important point is, if the guess about hearing Xiao Ruoyi's inner voice is true, then shouldn't the Empress Dowager, the Emperor's grandmother, be able to hear it too?
If you can hear it, maybe it can become an opportunity.
In this way, it was a foregone conclusion that Xiao Ruoyi would be regarded as the little lucky star, and even the ministers could not change it.
What's more, the gold bricks handed over by Commander Jin are the best stepping stone.
The stepping stone that the Imperial Guards sent back to the palace was seen by Old Tutor Xiang, who was halfway through his journey, wondering whether to go home or continue to settle accounts with Emperor Donglin.
Originally, Old Master Xiang thought that if he went to the Emperor to question him for this matter, or to question a three-and-a-half-year-old baby, if this matter got out, he would probably lose face!
I guess that brat Emperor Donglin would also laugh at him for being shameless, right?
However, just as Master Xiang was hesitating, he saw the guards carrying boxes into the palace.
"What's going on?"
Because Old Master Xiang was concentrating on today's morning court session, he didn't pay attention to the situations of other people.
So, now seeing the actions of the Guards, he was very curious and puzzled.
The guard leading the way smiled and told Old Tutor Xiang about the little princess finding the golden house of Minister Zhang's family.
Even those in the palace had heard about this big thing to some extent.
And what they hear will only seem more magical.
Old Master Xiang was stunned when he heard this, and felt that the world before his eyes seemed a little magical.
That little girl actually found the embezzled money in Minister Zhang’s house, and the embezzled money was used to buy a golden house made of gold bricks.
This, this, this...are you sure you're not kidding him?
Old Master Xiang exclaimed, denying what the guard said, "How is this possible?"
The guards were very dissatisfied with what Grand Tutor Xiang said.
Although they had never seen Xiao Ruoyi, they had all heard of this little princess from their companions.
The little princess is very well-behaved and cute. She even calls them uncle, which makes the servants feel warm at heart.
Which prince or princess is so kind to them and calls them uncle?
It has to be this little princess. In their hearts, they all regard the little princess as their little goddess!
The guard said with confidence and admiration, "Master, the little princess is a lucky star! Everything is possible!"
Old Master Xiang, “…” These palace guards are truly hopeless!
"Alright, alright, take me to see the Emperor!" Old Master Xiang no longer hesitated and waved his hand to urge the guards.
Old Master Xiang wanted to meet Emperor Donglin. How did that little girl know what happened in their bedroom?
Imperial study.
Emperor Donglin held Xiao Ruoyi on his lap and listened to Commander Jin's report.
Just hearing the number of gold bricks reported by Commander Jin, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"There are hundreds of tons! That's a lot!"
"Yes!" Commander Jin told Emperor Donglin what he had seen.
After listening to this, Emperor Donglin couldn't help but want to go and see what the golden house made of these gold bricks looked like.
The life that even he, the emperor, had never enjoyed was enjoyed by his ministers!
He worked so hard, and the national treasury was trying to make every penny count, but those ministers were living such a comfortable life. The Emperor Donglin felt aggrieved and angry no matter how he thought about it.
"Humph, damn bastard, how dare you embezzle so much money!" Emperor Donglin slammed the table and angrily asked, "Have you investigated other crimes of the Zhang family?"
The time was too short and the information was too little. Commander Jin lowered his head in guilt and said, "I have found a little bit!"
Xiao Ruoyi raised her eyebrows, looking worried and tangled, [Oh, I want to know the Zhang family's crimes! How should I tell Daddy that this Minister of Revenue was planted by the Third Prince's forces to collect money! Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the opportunity to make so much money! ]
Emperor Donglin's face darkened instantly, and a strong murderous aura burst out from his tall body in dragon robe.
Commander Jin was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground with a plop.
Because she couldn't hear Xiao Ruoyi's inner voice, she didn't know that Emperor Dong Lin was angry because of Xiao Ruoyi's inner voice. She just thought that he was angry because Xiao Ruoyi was slow in investigating.
Emperor Donglin slapped the table and glanced at Commander Jin coldly, "The son of the Zhang family is the third brother's study partner, right? Since he is the third brother's man, the Zhang family must be on his side. Check their relationship with the third brother and see if they have any close connection!"
"Yes, I will send someone to investigate right away!"
Commander Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't expect this. No wonder the emperor was so angry!
Xiao Ruoyi couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Emperor Donglin, "Wow, Daddy is so amazing, he figured out the key so quickly! You are worthy of being the king of a country, you have the demeanor of a wise ruler!"
As for why Emperor Donglin would think of the third prince, Xiao Ruoyi didn't think he was reading her mind. Anyone with a more careful eye would be able to think of these connections.
Now Xiao Ruoyi felt that Emperor Donglin was thoughtful and quick to react, and was worthy of being the king of a country.
Emperor Dong Lin puffed out his chest proudly, feeling very proud of receiving the praise from his beloved daughter Xiao Ruoyi.
Alas, if his little girl hadn’t reminded him, he really wouldn’t have thought of the connection between them.
Emperor Donglin's deep eyes flashed with cold murderous intent. "Send the Dali Temple to interrogate him severely. I want to see how many evil things he has done to embezzle so much gold!"
