Chapter 37: Smoke and mirrors



Gu Yanming raised his eyebrows, thought about it, and nodded, "Okay, if the princess can use a trick to hide the things, it will be good. If the things are left, they may not be able to enter the treasury. They may also be exploited by officials at all levels, and in the end there will be nothing left!

"When we go to the northwest and settle down, we'll send someone to get it! We can use it as the salary for the Golden Armor Army, or we can buy food and herbs!"

He led troops to fight all year round, and the military pay and food were often withheld, which made the soldiers at the border miserable. If he had this batch of silver, it would be an extra guarantee for the soldiers at the border.

Ye Xinran nodded. She had originally wanted to get a piece of the pie, but when she heard Gu Yanming say that he wanted to use it for military pay, she immediately gave up the idea.

In her previous life, she was a military doctor. She had a deep respect for military personnel and soldiers. She also knew that in the ancient world, leading troops to fight was very expensive. If the emperor was not a wise ruler, there would be corrupt officials in power. It was common for military pay to be withheld.

Gu Yanming led his troops to fight in the war and no one knew how much subsidy he had received. Therefore, when his property was searched, there really wasn't much money in the palace treasury.

Ye Xinran thought about it and sighed. She had to make money quickly! Otherwise, she would not have a good life following Gu Yanming in the future.

She touched the boxes gently, and all the boxes disappeared in an instant.

Gu Yanming was shocked on the spot. He looked at the empty cave, took a few steps forward, and looked left and right. There was really nothing.

"Princess, how did you do that? It's amazing!" Gu Yanming no longer had his usual indifference and looked around curiously like a young man.

Ye Xinran smiled helplessly, pulled the person out, and with a wave of his hand, the box reappeared.

"This is too magical!" Gu Yanming couldn't believe his eyes. He stepped forward again and touched the boxes. They were real. He was not hallucinating.

"Your Highness, do you believe it now?" Ye Xinran smiled, "This is a trick. The thing is still here, but you can't see it anymore!"

"Princess, tell me the truth, are you a god?" Gu Yanming looked at Ye Xinran seriously.

"Forehead!"???!!!

"No, it's just a trifle! Your Majesty, there is no need to be too surprised!" Ye Xinran thought to herself, if Gu Yanming saw the magic in the current world, he would be shocked!

"No one else can find it either?" Gu Yanming felt that he was being too rash and asked uncertainly.

Ye Xinran nodded, "Yes, only I can see it. If you want to take it, I have to take it!"

Gu Yanming nodded, "Then I'll leave it to you, Princess! Hide them!"

"Aren't you afraid that I will embezzle the money and run away?" Ye Xinran asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Don't be afraid, I believe in you, Princess! Besides, we are husband and wife, what's mine is yours! I feel at ease in your hands!" Gu Yanming said seriously.

Ye Xinran chuckled. She was a little touched by such words, but she didn't take it to heart. There were too many people who turned against each other for money. Besides, she and Gu Yanming just happened to be husband and wife, and they were in name only.

"My Lord, I can help you hide this money, but in exchange you agree to my three conditions. How about that?"

Gu Yanming frowned. He knew Ye Xinran didn't trust him, so he used this method to balance things out. After all, they hadn't been together for long. But he really trusted her. However, if it could make her feel at ease, she could ask for anything.

"Okay, I'll agree to whatever you ask!"

"That's not necessary. I only need to change three conditions. But I haven't thought about it yet. I'll ask the prince when I have thought about it in the future!"

Gu Yanming did not object and nodded, "Okay! Listen to the princess!"

Ye Xinran touched the boxes again, and the boxes disappeared out of thin air again.

Gu Yanming couldn't help being surprised and went forward to look for it again, but he found nothing. Suddenly he remembered something and asked in surprise.

"Then when Li Yang searched the palace, he found nothing. Was it a trick used by the princess? Did she hide all the finances of the palace?"

Ye Xinran’s whole body stiffened.

It's over. They are here to bring up old issues. What should I do...

Is it hidden or not?

Let her spit out what she has put in her mouth?

But if I don’t tell the truth, what if I accidentally use something from the palace and get discovered, I’ll be in even greater trouble.

Ye Xinran gritted her teeth, nodded helplessly, and raised an ugly arc at the corner of her mouth.

"Your Highness is so clever! Yes, as a princess, how could I watch the things in the palace being confiscated? That's why I also used some tricks to conceal some of the things!"

"The princess is truly righteous and is the lucky star of the palace!" Gu Yanming praised, unable to hide the smile in his eyes.

You little devil, I almost got fooled by you! He said, how come there is nothing after the house search? He was unconscious at the time, but he could hear clearly what was happening around him.

When I heard Li Yang say that he didn't copy anything, I was still wondering. Now I know that it was his princess who did it! This can be considered a blessing in disguise!

Suddenly, I remembered the news from the spies in the palace that the emperor's private treasury and Concubine Liu's palace were stolen! Could it be related to the princess?

"You, couldn't have gone to the emperor's private treasury and Concubine Liu's palace!" Gu Yanming said with certainty!

Ye Xinran was shocked. No way, was she going to be exposed today? How could this be possible? She absolutely could not admit this!

She frowned and looked at Gu Yanming coldly, "The prince actually thought of me so much! It seems that the prince has classified me as a despicable person. What else can I say? People with different ideals cannot work together! Let's say goodbye here and have nothing to do with each other in the future!"

Ye Xinran walked out after she finished speaking. What a joke! She could be caught by an ancient person!

Gu Yanming panicked all of a sudden. No, that's not what he meant! He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Ye Xinran.
