When Yun Qingluo led Mo Beichen into the house, Mo Beichen initially did not have any special reaction.
However, when they entered the inner room, the scene before them startled him slightly, but he quickly recovered.
The ground was covered with piles of gold bars, some so high they reached up to the shoulders of Yun Liaoluo.
Meanwhile, Yun Qingluo leaned lazily against a gold brick, turned around, and gave Mo Beichen a charming smile: "Achen, what do you think? Isn't it beautiful?"
Mo Beichen's gaze first swept over the wall made of gold bricks, then he stared deeply at Yun Qingluo and said in a deep and magnetic voice, "A beauty that could topple kingdoms."
Hearing this, Yun Qingluo slightly curled her lips and muttered, "Oh dear, I was asking about this golden brick wall. Look at it, isn't it grand enough? This is the first time I've discovered that gold can be so beautiful and moving, hahaha."
Mo Beichen lowered his head slightly and chuckled softly.
Yun Qingluo turned her head, glanced at Mo Beichen, and muttered, "With so many gold bricks displayed here, how come you don't seem surprised at all? It's like you're used to it. This makes me look like a country bumpkin who's never seen the world."
Just then, Xiao Yi, hiding in the space, laughed so hard she almost fell over, and didn't forget to sarcastically say, "Compared to the two of you, the way you looked when you first entered the space was just like a complete country bumpkin coming to the city."
Yun Qingluo chose to ignore Xiao Yi's mockery and paid no attention to it.
Mo Beichen walked up to Yun Qingluo, took her hand, and asked in a low voice, "Has Luoluo never been to the underground warehouse of the Prince's Mansion?"
Underground warehouse?
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo looked at Mo Beichen in confusion, "How come I didn't know?"
In her previous life, she didn't care about Mo Beichen at all, so it's normal that she didn't know about the affairs of the Prince's Mansion.
But in this life, she was already very careful, so how could she still have missed something?
Seeing that Yun Qingluo seemed completely unaware, Mo Beichen narrowed his eyes.
Mo Feng, far away on the Xuan Cang Continent, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
"Alright, let's go back and take Luo Luo to see her."
Yun Qingluo became even more curious about the underground warehouse in the Prince's mansion.
Could it be that there's even more gold hidden inside?
She shook her head slightly, thinking to herself, "That's unlikely..."
Although Ah Chen had some wealth, she used it either to reward the soldiers in the army or to spend on the common people and herself.
Could it be that this guy is secretly hiding money from me?
Mo Beichen keenly sensed that Yun Qingluo's aura had become somewhat subtle, and knew perfectly well that she had guessed what was going on.
So he immediately changed the subject: "Luo Luo, where did you get all this gold?"
Mo Beichen slowly circled the wall of gold bricks, and after careful observation, he noticed that some of the gold bricks seemed to be covered with dust and mud, as if they had been dug out from somewhere.
Suddenly, the image of the Golden House flashed into his mind—
Around midnight, it seemed that Luo Luo had quietly gone out once.
However, she returned not long afterward.
At that time, he thought that Luo Luo was hungry in the middle of the night, so she secretly went out to eat a late-night snack.
However, looking back now...
Mo Beichen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a doting smile.
Oh, I see! No wonder!
That very night, news spread that the Bai residence had been robbed. It was said that all the gold and valuables inside had been looted, leaving not even a trace of gold.
Compared to the previous house full of gold, it was like heaven and earth.
Furthermore, when Mo Beichen thought of the little boy Luo Luo had mentioned, his eyes darkened slightly.
"I never expected that Xiao Yi would have such abilities." Mo Beichen's voice was deep.
Yun Qingluo felt no sense of accomplishment when she saw that he had guessed it so quickly.
But to avoid the topic, she could only chuckle.
Ah Chen, you can use all this gold. I specially sent Yun Ying to gather intelligence, and today I suddenly realized that if you intend to expand your sphere of influence in the Xuan Cang Continent, money will inevitably be an indispensable resource. Therefore, I'm leaving this for you to use in your spare time.
Oh, I almost forgot to mention, you don't need to be stingy. I have so much more; this is just a drop in the ocean.
Yun Qingluo was very generous this time, giving generously and decisively.
Mo Beichen's lips curled slightly, his gaze lingering on the smiling woman before him with doting affection, and he asked softly, "Luo Luo, do you really intend to raise me as your husband?"
Yun Qinglu blinked, her face radiating determination and confidence, and replied, "Is that not allowed?"
Before he finished speaking, a low, joyful laugh emanated from Mo Beichen's chest, like a spring breeze brushing against the strings of a zither, resonating with everyone's heartstrings.
He gently stroked Yun Qingluo's hair and said softly, "Alright, since Luoluo has such intentions, then I will accept this free meal with a clear conscience."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qingluo was overjoyed, and a genuine smile bloomed on her face, as radiant as spring flowers.
You have to understand that in this era, most people in high positions are proud and arrogant, so how could they be willing to be ridiculed by others in such a way?
This is especially unimaginable in ancient society where feudal ethics prevailed.
However, her Ah Chen was different from others.
He not only readily proposed monogamy, but also promised to spend his life with her and never leave her.
What's even more remarkable is that, despite being at the pinnacle of royal power, Mo Beichen doesn't seem to have an overly strong sense of male chauvinism when facing her.
Occasionally, Yun Qingluo even has the illusion that she is not in ancient times, but is having a romantic relationship with a modern man.
Because of Ah Chen's deep-seated beliefs, he always put her first, while he himself took a backseat.
This kind of equal, respectful, and deeply loving relationship is truly precious.
Ah Chen was once filled with unease and fear, and he paid excessive attention to her, focusing all his attention on her.
This love made him humble and cautious, as if he were afraid of losing her in the slightest.
However, time flies, and years pass quickly. Now, she and Achen have gone through many ups and downs and have two adorable children.
These shared years gradually made him realize that their relationship was as solid as a rock, and no one could easily break through it.
So he began to change himself, learning to let go of his burdens and stop worrying and being overly anxious.
Nevertheless, one thing has never changed—
That was Ah Chen's burning, intense, obvious, and undisguised love for her.
This love was like a burning flame, warming her heart; and like a dazzling star, illuminating every step she took forward.
It seems to be saying: Luo Luo, just keep moving forward, she'll always be there for you.
