"Forget it." She slowly let go of him and said, "Go back! Your father must miss you very much."
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Grandmother, when Ruoyi is free, I will definitely come here to accompany you." Her voice was very soft, and only the Queen Mother could hear it.
Hearing her say this, the Queen Mother smiled even more and stretched out her hand to pinch her little face: "I'll wait."
Shang Ruoyi followed Jun Zegan back to the Prince's Mansion first, and the Prince of the City came back when it was dark.
"Where's the princess?"
Upon hearing this, the housekeeper hurriedly said, "After dinner, the princess went to your study and said that you must have something to say to her. You said before that the princess could go in and out of the palace, so I didn't stop her."
A hint of smile flashed across the eyes of the City King, thinking that his daughter was really smart.
When she came to the study, Shang Ruoyi was concentrating on reading the books in the library.
"What are you reading?" Wang's eyes fell on the book in her hand and he smiled: "You grew up in Tianshun. You should really take a good look at the customs and people of our Western Regions."
Shang Ruoyi put the book down and said, "Father, you really made me wait so long. If I don't read the book, I'm afraid I will fall asleep."
"The Emperor kept my father in the palace. Do you know why?"
Shang Ruoyi nodded, holding her hand and saying, "What's the matter? It's nothing more than theft from the national treasury."
A look of "as expected" flashed across the King's eyes, and he whispered, "Do you have anything to say to your father?"
Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "If I say no, what will father do?"
"What else? If you have nothing to say, then play a game of chess with your father."
Shang Ruoyi waved her hand after hearing this and said, "Forget it! I heard from my brother that when playing chess, father was not a gentleman and did not even follow the rule of not regretting a move."
The King of the City blushed slightly: "Don't listen to your brother's nonsense, your father's chess skills are still very good." He coughed a few times and said: "If you don't want to play chess, it's okay, then have a few drinks with your father?"
"Father, do you want me to speak the truth after I drink?"
The City King said nothing, his eyes fixed on the candlelight in front of him.
Shang Ruoyi curled the corners of her lips slightly, and with a wave of her palm, a pure gold wine glass appeared in her palm.
Her movements were not concealed, and the City King saw them clearly.
His pupils shrank slightly, and his eyes stared at the wine glass in her hand without blinking.
"Why is there no wine glass for drinking?" Shang Ruoyi placed the wine glass in front of her, spread out her palm, and another wine glass appeared in her palm.
The King of the City swallowed and looked at her blankly: "Ruoyi, this..."
"Originally I didn't want to tell anyone, but since you broke into the palace at night for me and even went toe-to-toe with the emperor, I won't hide it anymore."
After hearing her words, the City King was stunned for a long time.
I recognize these two wine glasses. They are clearly things from the national treasury. There are even the seals of the national treasury on them.
I don't believe in the so-called supernatural powers, but looking at the scene before my eyes, I can't help but believe it.
Not everyone has the ability to make something appear out of thin air, at least it's not a trick used by quacks.
"Ruoyi, could it be that father is already drunk before he even drinks?"
Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but laugh when she heard this: "Why not believe this?" She stretched out her hand, and in an instant, a huge wine jar appeared in her palm. The rich aroma of the wine brought her back to her senses instantly.
Drunk, definitely drunk,
Otherwise, how could he think his daughter was a fairy?
"I was the one who emptied the treasury." After she finished speaking, she waved her hand and the table in front of them disappeared, along with the wine jars and glasses on the table. Only the aroma of wine floating in the air reminded her that everything she had just seen was real.
She waved her hands, and the table reappeared.
Shang Ruoyi poured a glass of wine for 놛.
"Father, do you believe it?"
The City King nodded woodenly, then began to cough violently.
Now, 놛꺳 has finally come to his senses.
miracle! What a miracle!
I never thought that my daughter would have such magical powers.
"You said you emptied the treasury using the same method you just used?"
Shang Ruoyi nodded: "Not bad."
"If it is as you said, where are those things?"
"I have my own place to store them. Father, do you want to take these things back?"
The King of the City smiled and said, "Since you have the nerve to take the things away, your father will naturally not let you return them, but your father just wants to know why you did this."
Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but feel a little surprised when she heard this.
Seeing her expression, the King of the City couldn't help but ask, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"This treasury is the foundation of the Western Regions. Father is the most loyal minister to the Emperor. If I emptied the treasury, it would have shaken the foundation of the Western Regions. Father didn't even order me to return it."
"Haha." The City King smiled and said, "I am loyal to the Western Regions, not to the Emperor. Although I don't know why you want to empty the national treasury, I know that my daughter is definitely not a person without rules. You must have your reasons for doing this."
When Shang Ruoyi heard what he said, she felt warm inside.
Only someone who truly trusts her would say such words.
"It's just money. I don't really care." Shang Ruoyi whispered, "It is the way of heaven. What is divided must come together and what is united must be divided. This is also in line with the way of heaven. But if someone disrupts the peaceful and stable days that should have been peaceful, and wants to make the originally peaceful days full of killing and harm the people in order to make a profit, this profit may be money or power. No matter what it is, it is not tolerated by heaven. If I lose this money, I want to see how I can stir up trouble. I'm afraid that before I even leave the border of the Western Region, I will run out of food and grass."
Upon hearing this, the City King raised his lips slightly and said, "As expected of my daughter!"
After he finished speaking, he laughed out loud, and that laughter was full of pride.
After a while, his laughter slowly stopped, and he said seriously: "You have a special power, you must not expose it to others, so as to avoid getting into trouble."
"My daughter knows." Shang Ruoyi smiled and said, "Father, do you have anything else you want to ask?"
The King of the City shook his head, filled the wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp: "Refreshing!" He shook the wine glass in his hand: "So this is what it feels like to drink from a pure gold wine glass."
Shang Ruoyi knew that he was not talking about the wine glass, but was referring to himself.
"Emptying the national treasury will not necessarily stop the emperor's ambition to unify the world." The King of the City said in a low voice: "In addition to the national treasury, our emperor also has his own private treasury. Although I have never seen it, there must be a lot of treasures in that private treasury."
Shang Ruoyi smiled mysteriously when she heard this.
The King of the City was stunned when he saw her expression: "Could it be..."
"Since I have done it, I will definitely do it completely and won't leave you even a tael of silver."
