After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 106 allows you to choose treasures.

Upon hearing that there was a treasure, Fang Lingchu instantly forgot all her pain.

She quickly got up and asked, "Baby, where is the baby?"

The system said: [Host, run fast, go straight and then enter the house on the left. Gu Wangyan is coming down.]

Upon hearing this, Fang Lingchu ignored the pain in her bottom and ran over as fast as she could. Gu Wangyan had just come downstairs when he saw Fang Lingchu running.

He had originally intended to get down and comfort her, but unexpectedly she ran away.

Fang Lingchu didn't care what others thought; she just needed to run when she heard the system say so.

Upon arriving at the system's room, Fang Lingchu saw a wilted blade of grass in the middle.

Just as Fang Lingchu was about to ask about the treasure, she heard the system say, "[Host, go and put that grass away. I'll tell you later, the Crown Prince and Gu Wangyan are here.]"

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu immediately put away the thing that looked like grass.

Then, pretending nothing had happened, he looked around the room.

I felt incredibly guilty.

"Your Highness, come in quickly!" Fang Lingchu said with a smile, "Young Master Fang has led us to the secret chamber this time, so you can take a look and see if there's anything you like. I'll pick a few things to give you. So take your time looking around, and don't rush. Don't act alone, as there might be traps inside!"

Gu Wangyan chimed in, "Yes, Princess, you are of noble birth. If there's anything you like, just have them get it for you. Don't be rash."

Fang Lingchu lowered her head and obediently responded.

"Understood, General Gu."

Then, looking at the Crown Prince in disbelief, he asked, "Really? I can just pick any of the treasures here?"

After receiving the Crown Prince's affirmative answer, Fang Lingchu immediately ran to the pile of things the system had just mentioned as interesting and asked, "Guagua, tell me quickly, what good things can we give to my older brother, sister, and father?"

The Crown Prince looked at Fang Lingchu, who was squatting in the corner looking at the treasure, and shook his head helplessly.

At the same time, I felt a little sad and envious of how good Fang Lingchu was to her family.

The system was also excited! After all, this was ancient times, and they didn't like taking things secretly if they could do it openly.

If she gets discovered, who knows what Fang Lingchu will face?

[Host, this room contains treasures obtained by Prince An during his attack on Prince Qingling. Most of Prince Qingling's fiefdom is inhabited by members of the Mo family, so his treasures are mostly traps and hidden weapons.]

After hearing the system's explanation, the hand that was about to touch those things stopped.

[Host, there are two small boxes among the pile of boxes in front of you. Inside each box is a pair of hairpins. You can take them and give them to your father and mother.]

Fang Lingchu picked up the box and opened it. Inside lay a silver hair clip, nothing special, with very simple patterns.

Is there anything special about these two?

The system explained: "Their pattern features a switch containing two poison needles, which can save your life in a critical moment."

Upon hearing this, Fang Lingchu quickly put her things away.

Then I went to look around at other places.

Then I saw a really beautiful fan.

[Guagua, what do you think of giving this to your second brother?]

Fang Lingchu's second brother is a playboy who always wears nice clothes and goes out to show off.

The system excitedly exclaimed, "[This is perfect for your second brother, Host! This fan is fireproof, waterproof, and even a weapon. The handle also has a small knife. It's versatile, allowing for both offense and defense. Host's taste is getting better and better!]"

Upon hearing the system's words, the Crown Prince and Gu Wangyan exchanged a glance; they also wanted Fang Lingchu to choose one for them. [That's good. If there's also a soft sword, it would suit Big Brother.]

Fang Lingchu looked around but didn't see the software the system had mentioned.

The Crown Prince and Gu Wangyan looked around but didn't see anything, except for a particularly exquisite belt.

[There's a soft sword hidden in that belt next to you. Grab it quickly, or the Crown Prince will take it.]

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu quickly clutched the belt to her chest and looked at the Crown Prince with a wary expression.

The crown prince, somewhat embarrassed, withdrew his hand.

He actually quite likes flexible swords; they look nice and can be used for self-defense.

Fang Lingchu searched again and found a bracelet with a small sword inside. She gave it to her sister, saying it could save her life in a critical moment.

Then she saw a book on poison making. Fang Lingchu thought about giving it to Lin Wanrou, but then felt that it should be given to the Imperial Hospital, so she didn't take it. Instead, she had the system scan it and would copy it herself when she got back to give it to her.

Fang Lingchu simply picked out a small dagger and carried it with her.

The Crown Prince and Gu Wangyan then asked Fang Lingchu to choose one for them.

The system found a flute, a hidden weapon, for the Crown Prince, and a short sword, sharp enough to cut through iron, for Gu Wangyan.

Then everyone went outside.

Have others carry the gold and silver treasures back to the palace.

Royal Palace
The Crown Prince looked at Minister Fang with a very angry expression.

Minister Fang stood ramrod straight and said in a firm and resounding voice, "All the confiscated items must be put into the national treasury. Your Majesty, if you wish, you may take one or two usable items, but gold and silver treasures cannot be put into your private treasury."

The Emperor said, "But wasn't my private treasury used to replenish the national treasury? What harm would it do if I took some back now?"

Minister Fang shook his head firmly and said, "One thing at a time. We will repay Your Majesty's private treasury when the national treasury is full. It's not possible now. The border regions are waiting to be fed, we need to rebuild our weapons, there are about to be floods, and we need to deal with insect infestations, etc. There are many places where we need to spend money. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Emperor Chongde had a terrible headache looking at Fang Yelin kneeling below. All he wanted was a little bit of his own private savings.
Do you think it's appropriate for an emperor to bestow calligraphy and paintings upon his ministers every day?

Minister Fang didn't care what the emperor thought; he was certain that the money confiscated from the house was absolutely out of the question.

Emperor Chongde looked at Minister Fang's protective manner of his wallet, which was exactly the same as Fang Lingchu's usual greedy manner.

These two are truly father and daughter!
The key is that both of them are extremely loyal to him, so he can't afford to get angry.

It's hard.

"Get out, get out of here!"

Minister Fang: Yes

And then he really did leave.

Emperor Chongde: My head hurts even more.

When the emperor heard that over a hundred boxes of treasures were being carried in and out of Song Xiaoyu's house, and that all his ministers were richer than him, he thought, "Fine, I'm the only poor wretch here."

After Fang Lingchu returned home with a full load of things, she gave them to her mother and sister before going back to her room.

Then take out the two herbs that the system asked her to get today.

After entering the system space, the previously wilted grass has now come back to life.

Looking at the faintly colored grass, Fang Lingchu asked curiously, "Guagua, what are these things?"
