Chapter 21: A Study Made of Gold



The Shangshu behind him had no time to stop him. He rushed over with a terrified look on his face, blocking Yang Jia Erlang's sight, trying to take back the brick.

However, he was no match for a martial artist.

I saw that the back of the brick was shining with gold.

*

Yonghua Palace.

Qin Yuanhao had just finished his government affairs and rushed here without stopping.

When he arrived, the wife of the Marquis of Zhenbei and the third prince Qin Jinlin had already left.

"My dear, did you know that the new homes for the refugees are almost finished?"

He first washed his hands, then warmed them on the stove for a while before reaching out to Qin Zhenzhen and hugging her.

He came here specifically to tell the little princess and Concubine Chen.

"I would like to congratulate Your Majesty." Seeing the emperor's beaming face, the concubine knew that there must be more good things coming, so she also laughed.

The Concubine Chen's heart moved, "Your Majesty, now that the refugees have settled in new homes, you will surely be respected by all the people."

[Yes, mother is right. This may be the mission to gain the respect of all people.]

The Qin State suffered many disasters, and the people had long been complaining. Furthermore, all the scholars felt that the Emperor was not doing his job well, and therefore it was impossible for him to be revered by the people.

Qin Yuanhao's good mood was wiped out. He always thought that he was a tall figure in the hearts of the people.

I never expected that there were so many complaints in everyone's hearts.

Many imperial censors have joined forces to report my mother and brother, saying that my brother has a leg disease and absolutely cannot become the crown prince. However, my mother has persuaded the emperor, fearing that he will lose his mind and make my brother the crown prince.

How happy Qin Yuanhao was just now, how dark his face is now.

In the eyes of these people, he can't tell loyalty from treachery.

[Alas, my emperor father is just too easy to talk to, which leads to many ministers not respecting him at all, and even publicly insulting him.]

That is, whether it is the Queen's party or the Royal Concubine's party.

Didn't take him seriously at all.

These days, he went to court to force him to appoint a crown prince, and he didn't pay any attention to the people at all.

[With so many corrupt officials, the emperor himself didn't even notice. Even if they weren't assassinated, the country would probably be doomed soon.]

Qin Yuanhao walked back and forth holding Qin Zhenzhen in his arms. From what his daughter said, she knew which ones were corrupt officials.

It was she who pointed out the Minister of Revenue last time.

But as an emperor, he can't just run into someone else's house and smash the wall!

It can only be put aside for the time being.

[Hey, Second Uncle, why is my Second Uncle at Minister Xiao's house? ]

Qin Yuanhao is also a little confused?

He placed the second son of the Yang family in the position of Yang Shilang because it made Xiao Shangshu feel a little uneasy.

Now, go straight into the study.

He knew that Yang Jia Erlang was average in literature and martial arts, and was the weakest in the Yang family.

That's why he was appointed as a minor official in the court.

Don't be framed by that old Minister Xiao.

[My second uncle actually went to Minister Xiao's study to discuss the location of the new greenhouse. This skill book has already been used. Really fast.]

[Haha, how could Second Uncle be so clever? He discovered the gold that Minister Xiao hid in his study.]

Qin Yuanhao (⊙_⊙)!!!

Qin Yuanhao now felt that there might really be something wrong with his eyesight.

Yang Jia Erlang is obviously brave and resourceful, and a good man.

It hasn't been long since he discovered it.

No, he wanted to see what kind of gold the house was made of.

He couldn't even build a private library.

"I remember that the Minister complained to me about his poverty again today. This made me curious. Just how poor is his family?"

"Zhou Mian, prepare a carriage for me. I want to go on a private visit in disguise."

Qin Zhenzhen listened for a while and finally understood, and immediately started screaming.

[Emperor Dad, bring your little cutie with you! ]

I want to go too. I want to learn how to make a house out of gold. I want to build one in the future.

Qin Yuanhao smiled instantly, "Zhenzhen, are you reluctant to leave me? Then I'll take you with me!"

The Concubine Chen watched the father and daughter's performance from the side, and felt her temples throbbing. "Your Majesty, I will get a mink blanket and other small items for the little princess."

He had just brought the little princess into Minister Xiao's gate when he met the Minister of Personnel who came over.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why are you here? This little princess..." The Minister of Personnel spoke incoherently.

Zhou Mian quickly pulled the person aside.

Qin Yuanhao ignored him and walked inside quickly.

[Wow, this live broadcast of eating melons is really good, this gold is really blinding my eyes! ]

[Emperor, please leave quickly! Minister Xiao is about to start making excuses.]

The Minister of Personnel followed behind with his head down. As soon as he turned a corner, he heard a puzzled voice coming from the study.

"Minister Xiao, isn't this a blue brick? Why does it look like there's gold inside?"

"This, and this wall, why are they also shining with golden light?"

Yang Jia Erlang said loudly, his tone full of confusion.

"Minister Xiao, didn't you say your family was poor and all your money was contributed to the national treasury?"

The Minister of Personnel at the door stood there in a daze, feeling extremely regretful.

Why did you suddenly come here today?

Qin Yuanhao raised his eyes, and Zhou Mian signaled to quickly grab the servant next to him who wanted to complain.

"Could it be that the Minister is always pretending and actually hides the gold in the wall?"

"We spend every day in the study discussing how to save the national treasury. What do you say?"

"Thank goodness I admire the Minister so much. Today I want to see how much gold the Minister has hidden in his room."
