The capital is a melon field, I happily eat melons

Chapter 164 Climbing up the roof and disturbing the couple

The two men were hiding in a corner, talking about the late emperor with great interest, and a group of people kneeling not far away were almost numb.

They really don't want to know anything about the late emperor! They just want their money back!

"Wow, wow, wow, how am I going to live from now on? I might as well just quit my job and go back home."

The Duke's wife's heart was bleeding. If she had resigned from her official position and returned to her hometown, no one would have known about this matter and they could have continued to live a carefree life.

The calmest person among all the people was actually Concubine Chen, who held the Buddhist beads with a nonchalant look on her face.

"It's useless. The whole world belongs to the emperor. It doesn't matter where you flee to. The rich life you've had for decades can be considered stolen. Now you're just giving it back."

Lin Mo looked at Concubine Chen who looked calm and composed, and couldn't help but praise her in his heart: [This Concubine is really strong mentally, and even though she is old now, it can be seen that she was a great beauty when she was young. No wonder the late emperor doted on her for a while.]

Bai Xiao: [Of course, this is called living soberly. If you don’t live soberly, how can you be so rich? ]

There was nothing good to watch at the Chen family’s place, and it was annoying to see these people crying.

【Let’s go home. There’s nothing good to watch. 】

Lin Mo patted her butt and planned to return the same way. When the people in Chen Mansion heard her words, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The little devil finally decided to leave. The longer she stayed here, the more worried they would be.

Duke Chen is also worried now, but fortunately he is usually strict with the younger generations.

Although the younger generations are mostly arrogant and domineering, they will not do anything bad.

Fortunately! Otherwise, the Chen family would be really late this time!

Inside the palace, the emperor looked at the treasures in front of him and felt both happy and angry.

He was happy because he was rich again, but he was angry because this money was the money that his father was cheated away by others.

"It's really a bargain for them. The late emperor was really willing to give away so many treasures!"

How come this bastard dad is so generous to women but doesn't know how to be nicer to his son? How come he doesn't know how to be nicer to the people of the world?

When he died, he didn't leave a penny, leaving him an empty treasury, so he had to use all his savings over the years to fill the treasury.

It was not easy for a prince without any support to save such a small amount of money! In the end, all of it was subsidized to the national treasury.

All the money I saved when I was young was spent like this, and I was poor for decades afterwards.

"Your Majesty, do you think these treasures should be placed in the national treasury or in the private treasury?"

The emperor's private vault is so empty that even a thief can't take away a single speck of dust. There's nothing in it!

Eunuch Li felt sorry for the emperor. Even he, a eunuch, had saved a lot of money over the years and bought a house outside. The emperor was really poor.

"Put two-thirds of the items into the national treasury. Convert all items that can be converted into silver into money. Put aside those items that have no market for now."

Things that are priced but not sold are priceless. Even if you want to sell them, no one will buy them. But you can't sell them at a low price, so you can only leave them there for now.

Eunuch Li didn't know what to say when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, why don't you keep a little more for yourself? Even if you don't keep any, you should leave some for the ladies in the harem. The treasury still has money now."

Because of poverty before, the country’s various construction projects had not yet started. Now it has slowly started, and after a while of further investment, there will be returns.

So there is no urgent need for money, and the time when I needed money the most has passed.

Emperor Xuande sighed and said, "Although the world is peaceful now, there are still many places that need money. Let's put it aside for now. I feel relieved when I see the full treasury."

"I don't need much money myself, one third is enough."

Lin Mo and Bai Xiao no longer cared about this matter. They were now lying on someone's roof.

"What should we do? How are we going to get down? Can you take me down?"

Lin Mo's legs were weak. She just came up to get a kite, but she couldn't get down.

She asked Xiaobai to come over to help her, but he also went up and couldn't get down.

The children below looked at the two of them lying motionless on the roof and couldn't help shouting, "Brother and sister, we already have the kite, why don't you come down?"

This kite belongs to this little boy, but the kite string broke and fell onto the roof.

When Lin Mo and Bai Xiao passed by, they volunteered to help others, and then they ended up like this.

Lin Mo looked at his shaking legs and said in a trembling voice: "Little sister, can you find a ladder? We can't get down."

When they went up, they used the tree next to them to climb up, but they didn't dare to come down.

The little girl looked around and there was no ladder here, and this was someone else's roof.

"Sister, there is no ladder here, wait for me to find someone to help!"

After saying that, the little girl ran away.

Lin Mo and Bai Xiao: ...

Lin Mo said a little uncertainly: "This little sister should come back."

Bai Xiao: "I don't know. I really don't know what she hasn't done yet."

All he knows are some known things, and he really doesn't know some unknown things.

Lin Mo had been lying here for a long time and his legs were numb, so he couldn't help but move.

Bai Xiao suddenly exclaimed: [Don't move! There is someone else's bed right below us! The couple is sleeping on the bed!]

Lin Mo:!!!

The couple on the bed in the room: …

The couple on the bed were the eldest son and his wife of the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple. They were just about to get intimate when they heard a sound coming from the roof.

The young lady couldn't help but push her husband and said, "Why don't you go and help Lady Kobayashi? I'm afraid she will suddenly fall from up there." That would be so embarrassing!

The eldest young master said with embarrassment: "How can I get out of here? It's so embarrassing."

At this moment, the two people on the roof have started chatting.

Although they can activate a protection mechanism and jump down, they still don't have the courage to do so. It is safe, but it is also really scary!

So they would rather wait a little longer up there.

Bai Xiao: [The couple below are the eldest son and daughter-in-law of the Shaoqing of the Taichang Temple. We seem to be disturbing them.]

Lin Mo: [No way! That would be so embarrassing!]

The couple below: ...It’s quite embarrassing, but could you please stop talking about this topic for now!
