Chapter 268 Just Get Used to It
Chu Chengyi and Emperor Yongping both noticed the affair between Yu Jinming and Su Pengxin.
Chu Chengyi didn't want to mention the matter of Prince Ning because he had already thought of a way to deal with Prince Ning, and there was no need to damage the relationship between father and son.
From the day before yesterday to yesterday, he watched a lot of videos and thought a lot.
Emperor Yongping had watched all the videos he should watch. Since the matter of Prince Ning was not mentioned, there was no need for him to worry too much about it.
Why not use his own methods to prevent future troubles for Sheng Anguo?
Emperor Yongping was waiting for Chu Chengyi to express his opinion.
He could take action against Prince Ning, but he couldn't take action against the grandchildren of Prince Ning's mansion.
If this matter is not made a big deal, they can be saved.
Alas, Prince Ning had too many children, and they were all sons.
If this matter is not handled properly, it may cause disasters for future generations.
"Alright, Ma Xiuli and Zhou Hongjing, please deal with them as soon as possible. For those who are corrupt, break the law, and bring harm to the people, it is a waste to live one more day."
Chu Chengyi remained silent, and Emperor Yongping still did not mention Prince Ning.
He had made up his mind that even if he could not keep Prince Ning as his son, he would still try his best to keep as many grandsons as possible.
"I obey your order. I will take my leave."
"I obey your order. I will take my leave."
After Su Pengxin and Yu Jinming left, Chu Chengyi returned to his usual seat and began to review memorials.
"Master, does your emperor want to be a tyrant again?"
Xiao Hulu couldn't understand Emperor Yongping's actions, nor could he tell what he was thinking. He only felt that he was indecisive, hesitant, and lacked the courage that an emperor should have.
"He is not a tyrant, at most he has become soft-hearted again."
As an outsider, Chu Qinshu has a clear mind.
The eldest son of Prince Ning is already fifteen years old. In Sheng'an Country, marriage negotiations have already begun at this age, and family affairs have also been involved for a long time.
Emperor Yongping was worried that Prince Ning had told his sons about the treasure.
Also, he was the oldest living prince, but he did not get the throne. He must have some emotions about this.
If he passed these emotions on to his sons, coupled with the Zhang family treasure, there would be endless troubles.
As a grandfather, Emperor Yongping could not bear to kill all the grandchildren of Prince Ning's Mansion.
This put him in a difficult position.
According to the laws of Sheng'an Kingdom, all princes who are crowned as kings must go to their fiefdoms to be enfeoffed.
But Prince Ning had too many sons, and they were bold and ruthless, and his ability to save money was unmatched by ordinary people.
Such people, even if they do not have military power, make the royal family jealous.
Not to mention, in his search for treasure, he offended some gangsters, who knows how much trouble he would get into in the future.
This kind of trouble is inevitable even if the Ning Prince's Palace is completely eradicated.
Who among those who can survive in the underworld is stupid? Would they not check who is the one who asked them to find the treasure?
"Oh, Xiao Hulu understands. It's normal for your Royal Highness to be soft-hearted. Who asked Prince Ning to have so many children when he was doing nothing?"
Little Gourd understood Chu Qinshu's meaning and no longer disliked Emperor Yongping.
However, when it looked at the picture it had picked out, it felt a little hot.
If only Matthew's people went treasure hunting, it and its owner could still go looking.
But when King Ning involved a bunch of people from the underworld, it became a bit troublesome.
If the owner is targeted, he will have no peace of mind for the rest of his life.
"Little Gourd, let's write a storybook. I'll tell you to write it."
Chu Qinshu looked at the obviously disharmonious atmosphere between Emperor Yongping and Chu Chengyi and wanted to help them.
"Master, you are confused. Why do you need a small gourd to write a storybook?"
Although Xiao Hulu has become more diligent, he still sticks to the principle of not doing things by himself if he can avoid it.
Why do we need to write it by hand when there are already audio translation books?
The handwriting it wrote was ugly, the owner must have done it on purpose.
'Well, I am confused.'
Chu Qinshu patted her forehead. She worried too much and became more and more forgetful.
'Master, you will become more and more confused in the future, just get used to it.'
When the little gourd saw its owner patting its forehead, it shook its head.
Little baby, can you just take a random photo of your forehead?
There is no need to worry about breaking your brain.
"Little Gourd, why don't you keep an eye on those treasure-hunting underworld forces? If they have any ideas that are not good for Sheng Anguo and you miss them, be careful of your skin."
Chu Qinshu pretended to be angry, put her hands on her hips and made a show of force towards Xiao Hulu, then ran to the desk and started writing her "storybook".
Xiao Hulu rolled his eyes, but still resigned himself to his fate and clicked on the video.
In the past, it watched videos mostly for entertainment.
Now that this pastime has become a task, it feels a bit meaningless.
In Prince Ning's mansion, Prince Ning was discussing matters with his staff in the study.
Because of the incident in Yuzhou, he had not been able to send out the treasure hunting funds that were supposed to be sent to various places. Some of the underworld forces who collected money for treasure hunting had already gone on strike, while others were writing letters demanding the money.
Because of the pressure from Emperor Yongping, Prince Ning's Mansion did not receive any news of being investigated.
Mao Zhang and Hu Liang were still living a safe and stable life, working in Prince Ning's palace.
"Mr. Feng, what should we do about this?"
Prince Ning was determined to get the Zhang family's treasure, and he didn't want to give up.
"Your Highness, the case of Matthew Li has not been closed yet. It is better for us to wait and see."
The aide Mr. Feng advocated keeping the troops in place.
He wanted to wait until the matter in Yuzhou was completely resolved before taking action.
"But if the funds are not sent out, those people will probably cause trouble."
Prince Ning knew what kind of people his men were looking for, after all, it was he who instructed them to find these people.
"Write them back and ask them to pause and continue after a period of time."
Mr. Feng also knew the temperaments of these people, many of whom relied on these funds to make a living.
Alas, he got a headache just thinking about these people.
When he first approached these people, he did not agree, but since King Ning agreed, he could not stop it.
"Mr. Feng, don't you know who they are? After receiving funding for several years, they suddenly lost it. I'm afraid they will cause trouble."
Mr. Yu, an aide standing by, advocated giving the funds away.
The funding is only given twice a year, each time for half a year. There is a risk, but he doesn't think it is big.
After all, Emperor Yongping is now focusing on the case of Matthew Li. The people in Prince Ning's Mansion who were related to that case have already been dealt with. What trouble could there be?
"Well, you also said that you gave them a few years of funding. How has their treasure hunt progressed in the past few years? Don't you know? If there is no progress, it is just a waste of money. Why should we let them keep wasting money?"
Mr. Feng still didn't want to take any risks. Once Emperor Yongping noticed this matter, Prince Ning might not be in any danger, but those of them who depended on Prince Ning for survival would definitely not survive.
He wanted to use the incident in Yuzhou as an excuse to gradually get rid of those underworld forces who relied on collecting money to search for treasures.
He even suspected that those people only took money but did not do anything, and the money spent over the years only whetted their appetites.
"Who said there is no progress? The Red Spirit Country has the most mountains, and they have almost covered all of them in the past few years. Isn't this progress?"
Mr. Yu argued his case.
"These are all what they said themselves, and we haven't verified them one by one, so how many of them can we take seriously?"
Mr. Feng and Mr. Yu started arguing with each other, neither of them wanted to give in.
Watching their little gourds through the video, I shook my head and sighed.
It felt that Prince Ning was probably being fooled.
