Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Emptying the Royal Treasury i

Translator: 549690339

Emperor Qi, in a rare moment of relaxation, was resting with a certain consort.

A eunuch came rushing in.

“What’s the matter?”

Emperor Qi asked majestically.

Since Xu Yan had forcefully arrived in the capital, his sovereign majesty, once towering, had been greatly pushed back.

Even the common people felt, that Emperor Qi is not all that, their respect for him has decreased substantially.

The ministers feel the same!

Only in front of this group of eunuchs, could his sovereign majesty be fully demonstrated.

“Your Majesty, Young Master Xu…”

The eunuch’s gaze was evasive, hesitating to speak.

“What about Xu Yan? Speak!”

Emperor Qi’s face changed slightly.

“Young Master Xu… He… He has emptied the imperial treasury…”

The eunuch said, bowing his head.

“Emptied… Emptied…”

Emperor Qi’s head was buzzing, a hand clutching at his chest, his face muscles twitching.

1 did say, feel free to take anything you want!

Damn it, I didn’t tell you to empty it out!

Xu Yan, this boy, really does not have any manners!

Taking several deep breaths, Emperor Qi calmed his restless heart, his face regaining tranquility.

“If Xu Yan likes it, good, feel free to take it all… Go tell Xu Yan, if there’s something missing, he can go look in the national treasury, if he likes anything, he can take it as well!”

Emperor Qi waved his hand generously.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

After the eunuch left.

Emperor Qi took a deep breath, giving orders: “Go, tell the Imperial Kitchen to make me Nine Leaf Ginseng Soup to rejuvenate myself!”

I must rejuvenate myself. I almost fainted just now. I’m definitely getting weaker!

For the sake of Qi Country, 1 should visit the harem less in the future, can’t let myself get too weak!

Emperor Qi gritted his teeth and made a firm decision!

Not too long after, a eunuch came trotting over.

“Your Majesty… the Nine Leaf Ginseng is gone!”

Emperor Qi was furious: “What, all of you slaves dared to deceive me? Do you think 1 don’t know how many stalks of it we have stored in the treasury?”

Xu Yan may have powerful Martial Arts and not regard me, how dare these slaves do so?

Are they planning to rebel?

Emperor Qi was unable to suppress his anger.

“Servants, drag him down, behead him!”

The eunuch fell to his knees: “Mercy, Your Majesty! The Nine Leaf Ginseng has already been taken by Young Master Xu!”

Emperor Qi:…

He wearily waved his hand, letting the eunuch leave.

Emperor Qi looked up at the sky: “Could it be because 1 have heavily taxed? Or killed too much? That I am thus punished? How come the real tyrants of history haven’t had to face such punishment? The heavens are not fair!”

Xu Yan naturally didn’t know, Emperor Qi was self-pitying in his palace. After emptying the all valuable items from the treasury, Emperor Qi had someone send a message, saying he could check out the national treasury if it was not enough.

“Old Emperor Qi is quite generous.”

His approval of Emperor Qi increased.

Xu Yan brought back mo large carts of treasures from the palace. The corner of Guo Rongshan’s mouth twitched, his grandson was really shameless.

Since they’ve already been brought back, naturally there’s no point in returning them.

“Grandfather, 1 am heading back to Donghe County.”

Xu Yan prepared to return.

“Let your father handle matters of Donghe County, it won’t be in a mess, nor will Qi Country.”contemporary romance

Guo Rongshan thought about it and said, “The members of the Heavenly Mother Sect, as long as they don’t rebel, we can use them. If they do rebel, kill them. If Qi Country gets chaotic, it won’t be a good thing.”

His reputation among the people is of a virtuous and a wise man, he has to maintain that image through his actions.

“The Heavenly Mother Sect is not filled with mad men, moreover, their followers are spread across Qi Country, Wu Country, even in the northern Barbarian Lands, their information network is quite reliable, we could make use these, your father knows it, you don’t have to worry about it.”

Guo Rongshan thought for a moment, knowing that his son-in-law was a capable man. He knew how to exploit the information dissemination and intelligence gathering capabilities of the Heavenly Mother Sect.

“Grandfather, don’t worry, I understand,”

Xu Yan nodded.

“Yan’er, can ordinary people practice your method of Martial Arts?”

Guo Rongshan asked with a hint of expectation.

“I am not sure, 1 would have to ask my mentor,”

Xu Yan scratched his head.

“Alright, you ask him,”

“Understood,”

Xu Yan nodded.

He planned to take some of the treasures that he brought from Emperor Qi’s treasury back to Eastern River County as a gift for his mentor.

Treasures such as the Nine-Leaf Yuanzhi and other valuable medicinal herbs were naturally to be taken, as well as some precious calligraphy and gemstones.

That night, Xu Yan was practicing in his own small yard.

As his energy flowed, it continued to strengthen, and he felt that with the principles of the Innate Realm, he was just one step away from enlightenment.

With his practice, Xu Yan felt he was close to fully mastering the state of Qi and Blood.

The breakthrough would likely come in the next two or three days.

With Xu Yan leaving the capital, Emperor Qi heaved a sigh of relief.

The ministers also breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Yan’s presence was like a mountain hanging over their heads, ready to collapse at any time, crushing them into pulp!

Now that Xu Yan was gone, it was as if the mountain over their heads had disappeared.

The Prince’s Palace of Qi remained lofty, and Guo Rongshan, the king of a different surname, the grand elder, and the Crown Prince’s teacher, still held high authority. Even if the ministers had objections, they dared not voice them.

With the royal treasury emptied by Xu Yan, Emperor Qi openly asked the ministers to present some treasures to the palace. Those who did not oblige were dismissed, and in severe cases, their houses were confiscated!

Anyway, the court had already changed because of Xu Yan.

Guo Rongshan kept silent. His grandson had emptied Emperor Qi’s treasury, so it only made sense for him to refill it, didn’t it?

The quickest and most direct way to replenish it was naturally to target the group of ministers.

The ministers cursed silently in their hearts but had no choice but to donate.

After all, in search of great talents, they still needed the status of the court’s high officials. Without this status, how could they recruit guards and search for great talents?

Eastern River County, Xu Family.

Xu Junhe was entertaining Jiang Pingshan and Kou Ruozhi. He said with a smile, “Yan’er will be back soon. The position of the Eastern River County ruler is vacant. Do either of you have someone to recommend?”

Jiang Pingshan glanced at Kou Ruozhi and said, “Eastern River County is eventually a county of Qi Country. Honorary Member Xu, you should be cautious when using people.”

Kou Ruozhi raised his brow and laughed coldly, “What does it have to do with Qi Country or Old Qi Emperor? Eastern River County belongs to the Xu Family. Xu elder’s decisions are none of Qi Emperor’s business!”

Jiang Pingshan’s face darkened.

He kept quiet. It was clear that Kou Ruozhi had expressed his intention to side with the Xu Family, and the fact that Eastern River County belonged to the Xu family was unquestionable.

Still smiling, Xu Junhe continued, “Brother Jiang, please continue to maintain law and order in Eastern River County. The General’s Mansion is still the General’s Mansion.”

“Understood. If Elder Xu needs anything, feel free to give the order!”

Jiang Pingshan responded with a fist and a palm salute.

He was a bit dejected. Originally, Xu Yan was his son-in-law. But one wrong step led to a world of difference.

“As for the role of the Governor of Eastern River County, I have another candidate in mind. Kou Ruozhi, you will serve as an adviser in the Xu Mansion. Being a strategist of the Heavenly Mother Sect, you should understand my intention,”

Xu Junhe said with a sly smile.

“I understand!”

Kou Ruozhi seemed regretful.

But he knew that the Heavenly Mother Sect was still just a sect and could not make it to the mainstream.

Nowadays, in Qi Country, it was neither an era of droughts nor of wars. The people were content, and there was no chance of rebellion.

“In the Eastern River County, everyone is searching for talents. Kou Ruozhi, you should keep your eyes on it, understood?”

After letting Jiang Pingshan leave, Xu Junhe seriously said to Kou Ruozhi.

“I understand!”

Kou Ruozhi nodded

Talents are in Yunshan County, but nobody dares disturb them..
