Chapter 156 The Taste of Freedom
"Second Miss Jiang, the Emperor won't feel any more pain from now on, right?"
Eunuch Yuan helped Jiang Yao up and asked.
Seeing that the swelling on Zhao Huang's knee had subsided, it was something that other imperial doctors could not do.
"With proper maintenance, there won't be any major problems."
Zhao Huang is the emperor, and he doesn't need to kneel down to anyone. What could happen?
After Jiang Yao explained the precautions to Eunuch Yuan, he packed his suitcase and prepared to leave.
"Jiang Yao." Zhao Huang called her, "You haven't told me what happened before you pushed Jie'er."
Jiang Yao looked back at him. Emperor Zhao Huang was very rational and smart. He knew how to get along with different people. So far, although she was angry with Zhao Huang, she did not hate him.
No wonder the State of Zhao lasted for so long. Zhao Huang was indeed suitable to be the emperor.
"The princess drugged me, nearly losing my virginity to the second leader of the Anan tribe, and nearly ruining the tribe's diplomatic relations with the State of Zhao. Your Majesty, do you think I merely pushed the princess down the stairs? Does that count?"
Zhao Huang frowned: "Is this true?"
"If the emperor doesn't believe it, he can ask the prince."
Zhao Huang thought for a moment, then looked up at her and said seriously, "Don't mention this to anyone in the future. A girl's innocence is no joke. I will ask Jie'er about this matter and will definitely give you an explanation."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to explain. I have a bad fate and am destined to have little luck. I am not compatible with the royal family. Now that I have helped Your Majesty heal his knee, I only ask Your Majesty not to summon me again in the future. I am very afraid of death. I only ask Your Majesty to grant me this wish."
Zhao Huang: “.”
"Xiao Yuan."
"The servant is here."
"Go to the treasury and get some Ganoderma lucidum for Jiang Yao to take back to calm his nerves."
"I'll go right away."
"There's no need for the Ganoderma lucidum." Jiang Yao said unhappily, "That thing is only pretty but useless. It's worthless."
"So what do you want?"
"Gold." Jiang Yao said seriously, "If Your Majesty really wants to give it, just give gold."
"Haha, okay, Xiao Yuan, go get the gold."
After an incense stick of time, Jiang Yao looked at the boxes of gold in front of him and couldn't help but sigh that capitalists are good, they are stupid but have a lot of money.
"Give me all of these?"
"certainly."
There were five boxes of gold in total, and Jiang Yao was dazzled by them.
"This is a thank you gift for showing me your legs today. I will deal with the injustice you suffered separately."
Jiang Yao nodded. Looking at the money was like seeing his future, and he felt very happy.
As for Zhao Jie's matter, she no longer had the heart to think about it. She only thought that with this money, once Su Qianji left, she would become rich and could do whatever she wanted.
Seeing her happy, Zhao Huang felt much better too: "Xiao Yuan, quickly help Jiang Yao deliver the gold to Feiyan Palace."
On the way back, Jiang Yao couldn't stop smiling, and Bai Chu beside him kept casting contemptuous glances at him.
"Miss Jiang Yao, what are these?"
Langqi asked, pointing at a few boxes.
Jiang Yao is rich now and is not stingy. He opened the box and took out two gold ingots.
"Master Langqi, this is for you."
Lang Qi didn't take it. Youyou looked at her and asked, "Are these all given by the emperor?"
"Yes, I treated his leg, so of course he should pay me."
"Miss Jiang Yao, are you going to do something big?"
"No, why do you ask?"
Lang Qi pointed at the gold in her hand and said, "These are all government money. If you are not doing something important, what are you going to do with so much?"
Jiang Yao's heart skipped a beat and he quickly turned the gold over to examine it carefully.
Sure enough, the words "official gold" were printed under the gold.
There was an unwritten rule in the State of Zhao that all official gold and silver could only circulate within official circles. Even if they wanted to use them for personal purposes, they had to have an imperial edict to prove it before they could spend them.
Jiang Yao’s joy ended here.
These boxes of gold meant that she couldn't spend them at all. Even if she wanted to spend them, she would have to ask Zhao Huang to write a written certificate.
“It’s too bullying.”
Jiang Yao was so angry that his cheeks puffed up, and he regretted not letting Zhao Huang suffer more.
"Bully?"
Lang Qi thought about Su Qianji's instructions and didn't let Jiang Yao be bullied.
"Who bullied Miss Jiang Yao?"
"Zhao Huang, he said he was thanking me for treating his leg, but what happened? He gave me several boxes of government money that I couldn't use. This is clearly bullying me."
She should have watched carefully just now. He made harsh words and then took the benefits and left. She accepted it for the sake of gold, but she couldn't use what she got. This was too much.
"Miss Jiang Yao, do you want gold without the official gold label?"
"Yes, I was thinking of using this gold to buy a birthday present for grandpa today."
Now she is rich, but she has so much gold but she can't use it.
"If Miss Jiang Yao wants gold, Feiyan Palace has it."
Jiang Yao's dead heart ignited again: "Can I have it?"
"The master said yes."
Half an hour later, Jiang Yao left the palace with Bai Chu, carrying two gold ingots and some silver bills in his arms.
Langqi was following behind him, saying that Su Qianji had told him to follow.
On the street, Jiang Yao stretched out lazily, looking contented: "Ah, the taste of freedom."
If Langqi hadn't been with her today, she would have definitely emptied out the Feiyan Palace's warehouse, as there were so many good things in there.
It's a pity that Su Qianji was so stingy to her, but she didn't expect that he was getting so much money behind her back.
"Miss Jiang Yao, please buy whatever you want quickly. We shouldn't be out for too long."
"I know, I'm just strolling around."
She didn't want Langqi to follow her, but Langqi insisted on following her.
Jiang Yao felt like he was alive again after leaving the palace. He strolled around the streets and bought a lot of delicious food with Bai Chu. They only started to do business after they were full.
Langqi wanted to drag her away several times, but when he thought of Su Qianji's instructions, he held back.
"Miss Jiang Yao, it's almost done."
Jiang Yao looked back and saw that Langqi was almost buried by the things she bought, with only his face exposed among the things, looking at her with gloomy eyes.
She couldn't help laughing out loud: "Haha, Langqi, you are so funny."
Lang Qi couldn't laugh: "If Miss Jiang Yao doesn't go back, I will send the master here."
"Isn't Master Su in seclusion writing a letter to his country?" As if she didn't know: "Besides, you are with me, why did you ask Master Su to come?"
"Miss Jiang Yao, don't you know that I am the master's contract? The contract can sense the master with spiritual power."
Jiang Yao's heart skipped a beat, and he lowered his head to ask Bai Chu, "Little White Pig, is this true?"
Bai Chu nodded, and there was a hint of fear in his purple eyes.
Jiang Yao's interest was almost gone: "Okay, I won't go shopping anymore."
I happened to see a large shop: "Four Treasures of the Study? This would be a great gift."
"Let's go buy some gifts and then we can go back."
Accompanying Bai Chu and Lang Qi, Jiang Yao stepped into the Wenbaozhai.
As soon as I stepped in, I smelled the fragrance of ink. It was very big and there were many people coming and going.
"Dear gentlemen, what do you need to buy? Can I help you find it?"
"Brother, I want the best four treasures of the study in your store."
