Unfortunately, the jade seal in Zhao Chen's hand happened to be missing.
He had just heard that Concubine Lin had discovered a gold mine and was pondering over it when the eunuchs around him knelt down and told him in panic that the imperial seal was missing.
The imperial seal had been passed down through three generations and had been in Zhao Chen's hands for many years. Not long ago, Zhao Chen discovered that the imperial seal had a crack, so he asked Lord Yao from the Ministry of Rites to take care of it.
Lord Yao drank some wine and lost the imperial seal. Now he has been killed in the palace to apologize.
When Zhao Chen arrived, Lord Yao's body was already cold.
What happened these days? Zhao Chen laughed angrily, veins popping out on his forehead.
There were floods and the loss of the imperial seal. Could it be that God was dissatisfied with him as an emperor and was punishing him?
Lai Xi trembled with fear: "Your Majesty, today's imperial decree..."
Zhao Chen said decisively: "Don't spread it yet. The news that the jade seal is lost must be kept secret and no one from the previous dynasty can know about it."
...
...
Zhao Chen: "If you can't find it, have someone make a replica. Didn't the jade come from foreign countries? Have them pay tribute to you with another one."
It is possible to imitate, but it is bound to cause rumors. If it really spreads, it will definitely shake people's hearts at this juncture.
Lai Xi was worried for a long time. The maid outside whispered something in his ear, and he suddenly came in with a smile on his face. "Your Majesty, great news. Concubine Lin wants to donate the gold mine to Your Majesty."
Zhao Chen was once again shocked by Lin Zhiya's awareness, and his pupils dilated a little.
Zhao Chen was sitting at the table, his back straight, his thin lips slowly raised, "Oh, let her in."
Although the whole world belongs to Zhao Chen, Concubine Lin has just donated three million to the disaster area, and her sincerity is evident to all.
She had dug up the gold mine, but she didn't take the initiative to tell her, so Zhao Chen was too embarrassed to ask her directly for it.
Well, my good intentions have paid off.
Zhao Chen opened a book that he had barely read a few pages of and placed it on the table with a serious attitude, and then Lin Zhiya came in.
Lin Zhiya’s inner voice: [Actually, I’m reluctant to let go].
Zhao Chen's eyelids twitched, and his feeling about Concubine Lin's enlightenment suddenly faded a little, but after all, it was a gift of money. Zhao Chen told himself that Concubine Lin was extremely outstanding among the people in the harem.
Lin Zhiya: "Your Majesty, you are still reading. You must be very tired. I will make you a cup of tea to relieve your fatigue."
Her thoughts: [Just in time to see what the energy potion can do. ]
Zhao Chen frowned: "What?" Although he didn't understand the words "energy potion", it was obvious that Concubine Lin was using her as an experiment.
Lin Zhiya swore: "This is the secret recipe passed down from my ancestors. Your Majesty, don't worry. The maids in the palace all praise my craftsmanship."
Lin Zhiya had already started fiddling with the teacup, without waiting for Zhao Chen's consent, and her smooth movements were dazzling.
Never mind, I'll just let her go this time. Zhao Chen stood up and stood behind Lin Zhiya to observe.
He vaguely knew that Concubine Lin had a secret, and this time he just verified his guess. Zhao Chen wanted to see what the energy potion was.
Lin Zhiya's inner voice: [Oh no, why is the dog emperor standing behind me? I can't even give him the drug. ]
Zhao Chen's heart trembled. He carefully observed that Concubine Lin did not seem to want to murder him, so he slowly turned around to give her space to drug her.
It's really crazy. A few days ago, Zhao Chen would never have thought that he would allow his concubine to drug him.
Zhao Chen leaned back in his chair and realized that his entire body ached. Several days of government affairs had made him start to feel sleepy.
Lin Zhiya took out energy potion from the system and added a little bit with great restraint.
Don’t put too much, otherwise the dog emperor will die suddenly.
Zhao Chen: "I never realized that Concubine Lin was so beautiful before."
Lin Zhiya muttered, isn't it? After seeing the scene with the concubine, the dogs have become handsome.
Zhao Chen had no idea what he was thinking of, and had an indescribable expression on his face. It was most likely Xiu Nu and Concubine Nian.
Zhao Chen took a sip of tea, and a warm current flowed down his throat to his limbs. His whole body visibly relaxed and looked full of energy.
Concubine Lin really has a lot of secrets!
Zhao Chen took note of this thing called energy potion, and would ask Lin Zhiya to help him relieve his fatigue more often in the future.
Seeing Zhao Chen's energetic appearance, Lin Zhiya knew that the energy potion was taking effect, and she sat up straight and prepared to talk business.
Lin Zhiya said succinctly: "I cannot control the gold mine. After thinking about it, I think it is better to hand it over to the emperor."
Lin Zhiya knew very well that if she found something important, she had to hand it over to the country. Moreover, she thought boldly that as the third most important concubine in the harem after the departure of Nian Zhaoyi, she still had half of the Kingdom of Zhao.
When giving a gift, you should do it with great passion and be open and aboveboard.
Lin Zhiya immediately took out five or six land deeds, all of which belonged to villages around the gold mine, and handed them over to Zhao Chen together with the gold mine.
Lin Zhiya said affectionately: "Your Majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs, and I can only do a small amount of money transfer. I am really useless."
Zhao Chen held Lin Zhiya's hand and said, "If my beloved concubine is useless, everyone else in my harem will be hanged."
Lin Zhiya wanted to shake off Zhao Chen's claws, but she still said sweetly: "Your Majesty, please don't forget the money I donated. You must never forget it in the future, woo woo woo."
Zhao Chen's eyes were moved, "Don't worry, Zhiya, Zhao will always remember you."
...No, don't call me like that.
After Lin Zhiya handed over the gold mine, she was ready to go back to sleep, but Zhao Chen had no intention of letting her go back.
She had no choice but to say tactfully: "Your Majesty, I feel so weak."
Zhao Chen asked Lai Xi to tidy up the couch in the outer room, so Lin Zhiya had to lie on it temporarily. She wanted to see what Zhao Chen was doing, but she was so sleepy that she lay limp on the quilt.
Inside, Zhao Chen finally took action and thought about promoting Lin Zhiya.
After much deliberation, it was decided to promote Lin Zhiya to the position of concubine, with the title Wan, Wanpin.
After the imperial edict was written, Lai Xi asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, there is no imperial seal, this..."
Zhao Chen's original joy was dashed away. "First stamp my private seal, and we'll talk about it later."
Outside the door, someone reported in a panic. The sound of footsteps made Lin Zhiya look up, and she heard the sharp voice of the little eunuch.
"Your Majesty, a jade seal was dug out from Concubine Lin's gold mine. The style is exactly the same as the one in the palace. Concubine Nian said that Concubine Lin was plotting a rebellion."
Lin Zhiya: ...Fortunately, the gold mine has been given to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen walked out from inside, his tall body blocking the light in front of Lin Zhiya. Lin Zhiya's heart moved. Could it be that the dog emperor was so angry that he wanted to implicate herself?
Lin Zhiya raised her head and glanced at Zhao Chen, only to see an incomprehensible light of excitement flashing in Zhao Chen's eyes.
Zhao Chen paced happily: "Imperial seal? Where is my imperial seal?"
