However, now that the department is in his hands, it is practically defunct.
The work he's doing now has absolutely nothing to do with treasure hunting. This... this can't be blamed on him. He was unaware of it. The few officials in charge of the secret treasure were all Rong Wang's men, and they were beheaded long ago!
Emperor Mingxi lamented once again, "The blade was too swift; the killing was premature!"
[Master, don't you really want to know? Right now, not only the Tong family is looking for their ancestors' treasure within the Great Yan territory, but there are also several other forces outside looking for it.]
On the Xie family's side, although Prince Rong is dead, some of his supporters and orphans are still alive and are searching for the late emperor's stored silver. As for the Emperor Gaozu's treasure, they can only speculate from Prince Rong's few words before his death and are not sure if it exists, but they know that stored silver definitely exists.
Moreover, based on the timeline, the late emperor's savings should be found by the end of next year.
"The end of next year is still a long way off, no rush!"
The Great Yan Emperor and his ministers: Little Immortal Lord, you're not worried, but we are! (Scratching ears and cheeks)
"Little Pearl, even if I knew the location, could I really go dig it up? I'm not short of money. As for the Yu family, they're not going to rebel. Having these treasures would be more of a curse than a blessing, so it's best not to bring trouble upon them!"
Yu Chongshan nodded frantically in his heart. Yes, yes, Fu Guang was right. Their family was not short of money.
The whole family never thought of rebelling; they saw no use in taking that hot potato of money.
If we don't dig this money up and spend it, won't it just become a hoard of savings? Then it'll truly become inactive!
How about we support the Yu family in conquering the world after the Great Evolution is over, Master?
Emperor Mingxi: My Lord, are you even speaking human language? What do you mean by saying the Great Yan is gone and you've been playing around conquering the world?
Oh, so the Divine Artifact is a god, an artifact, not a human. Sigh! Well, there's nothing we can do about that!
But Little Immortal Lord is human now, so we can put our effort into her!
Yu Chongshan was terrified when he heard what the divine artifact said! His family had never even considered conquering the world and becoming emperor.
At most, it's because of the moonlight that they think about expanding their family and becoming a family that lasts for a thousand years!
System: I haven't thought about this before, why don't you think about it now? Anyway, there's no rush, the Great Evolution is still several years away!
Yu Chongshan and Yu Zhongchun shook their heads desperately at Emperor Mingxi, who sat firmly on the dragon throne, showing no emotion. Their family truly only wanted to be a noble family for a thousand years, not to rule a dynasty that only lasted a few hundred years!
"Forget it, if the Yu family doesn't have this intention, then I have even less intention. A dynasty lasts for several hundred years, which is only the time it takes for us to go into seclusion once."
What's so good about that chair?
The emperor rises earlier than the rooster, works harder than an ox, and sleeps later than a dog. If he wants to sleep with a beautiful woman, he has to be mindful of the opinions of all the court officials and ensure that his favors are distributed evenly! Let whoever wants to do this job do it; we're not doing it!
Emperor Mingxi pondered repeatedly in his mind the saying, "Early to bed, harder than a rooster; work harder than an ox; sleep later than a dog; and have to be mindful of others' feelings even if you want to sleep with someone." For some reason, he felt... it was a very good summary. He decided not to use it again! (Tears of grievance)
The future emperor, now crown prince Xie Zhiyan: After listening to what Little Immortal Lord said, why does the throne suddenly seem less attractive?
If he says he doesn't want to accept it now, will his father break his legs?
The father and son's eyes met in the air. Emperor Mingxi saw through the crown prince's little thoughts and was secretly annoyed that his son was not determined. How could he be brainwashed by a single sentence from the little immortal?
Sigh! It seems he himself also feels that being an emperor is rather dull and uninteresting.
"That seems true! Even the king of ants is still an ant. Why don't we reveal the Tong family's treasure trove to Emperor Mingxi? With money, he might be able to stabilize the decline of the Great Yan Empire."
It also weakened the power of both foreign tribes and internal rebellious forces—a win-win situation!
As long as the Great Evolution endures, the people may suffer far less.
Emperor Mingxi: Yes, yes, give it to me, I'm sure I can spend the money wisely!
Dong Qianli's eyes also lit up.
"Little Pearl, why are you concerned about these things now? Didn't you say that the disappearance of Dayan wouldn't affect us much? Why are you suddenly concerned about ordinary people? Little Pearl, you seem to be showing some humanity now!"
This is not the film or literature I've been watching recently about the world where the master experienced his previous life.
Master, don't you remember? The Xia Kingdom you experienced in your previous life was a prosperous and thriving nation where the people lived in peace and contentment.
When the people have faith, the nation has strength, and the people have hope, it is a very, very powerful country.
They also experienced a century of humiliation before they were able to revive. That generation suffered so much, and Xiaozhuzi thought that it would be best if Dayan never had to go through such a thing.
When the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken; in such a turbulent situation, the poor and the rich alike are as worthless as blades of grass. How many of the officials in the court have met a good end?
The Great Yan Emperor and his ministers: Is the Divine Artifact finally going to bring this up again? They were both apprehensive and curious about their future 'death'.
I'm afraid to hear it, yet I'm also afraid to not hear it!
Knowing they were doomed to die, Lord Gu Yutong and Lord Zhao Zhifeng suddenly became the brightest stars in the crowd.
The two straightened their backs; knowing the outcome, they weren't nervous!
Crown Prince Xie Zhiyan, who is known to be poisoned: No mention!
"As for my previous life, many memories were sealed by my master, and I don't remember them very clearly. I only vaguely remember that they had very powerful weapons, and a single cannonball could flatten the entire capital city."
They have countless kinds of these weapons—those that fly in the sky, run on the ground, and swim in the sea—each possessing earth-shattering power.
If we let them conquer the world in Dayan, the unification of the six kingdoms wouldn't even take a month!
Their population is several times that of the six countries combined, and yet everyone is well-fed. Hmm... their food is so delicious! And there's such a variety!
There are also airplanes, trains, and cars that travel thousands of miles a day, and ships that are many times larger than this hall…”
As Yue Fuguang narrated, the rulers and ministers of Dayan fell silent. They never dreamed that such a powerful nation, built by mortals, existed in the world.
The people living there must be very happy. There is no war or famine, and they don't have to risk their lives at any time. For ordinary people in Dayan, it is the best life they never dared to dream of!
That's a life only gods can live!
Emperor Mingxi and generals like Huo Ying were very envious of the Xia Kingdom's weapons. They didn't know what the cannonballs were, but the fact that a single shell could destroy the largest and most prosperous capital of Dayan made it clear how powerful and terrifying it must be.
If they had those weapons, they might not be able to unify the six kingdoms in a month, but they could definitely do it in two months. The problem is that they spent all their time traveling!
At the same time, they were extremely fortunate that Xia Kingdom was not their neighbor.
If there is such a huge, prosperous, and powerful country around them, they would have to sleep with one eye open.
[Master, you still remember quite a lot. Did the God-King deliberately leave these things behind when sealing your memories?]
