"Have all the assets in the Imperial Treasury and the National Treasury, as well as the assets of Li Yu and others, and the civil and military officials whose homes were confiscated, been inventoried?"
Li Jing pondered for a moment, then asked Nangong Qingyue.
"Your Highness, the entire inventory has been completed."
Nangong Qingyue's expression turned solemn, and she solemnly said, "The total value of the treasures in the imperial treasury is 579 million taels of gold."
Under the leadership of Right Chancellor Yu Shixiong over the years, the national treasury has been extremely well-stocked, accumulating 136.57 million taels of gold.
The combined wealth of the residences of the Second Prince Li Yu and others, as well as the residences of the civil and military officials whose homes were confiscated, amounted to 49.75 million taels of gold.
There are a total of 765,320,000 taels of gold here.

Nangong Qingyue said with a wry smile.
"Xuantian Sect? All sects are indeed cancerous!"
A cold glint flashed in Li Jing's eyes; he naturally knew why only 30% could be kept.
Where did the remaining 70% go?
"By the way, Your Highness, the elders of the Xuantian Sect have arrived in Yanjing City and entered the residence of the First Prince Li Hao."
Nangong Qingyue suddenly thought of something and whispered to Li Jing.
