My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

At this time, Wan Sutong suggested, "Why don't we see what Zhao Jinfang wants Zhao Jinghua to do!"

Just as Feng Ming was about to ask how to see it, he saw a screen appear next to 0533. In the screen, Zhao Jinghua lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, "My son pays respect to the emperor." Zhao Jinfang quickly helped Zhao Jinghua up, "Hurry up, your father wants to hear your opinion on the matter of appointing a crown prince."

Zhao Jinghua quickly bowed and said, "The matter of the crown prince concerns the fate of the country. I dare not speak rashly."

Zhao Jinfang chuckled and lifted his arm, motioning him to stand up. "It's okay, my son, who do you think is suitable? If you don't know, you can calculate it."

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and shook his head slightly, "I think you have made up your mind."

Zhao Jinfang held Zhao Jinghua's arms and said, "Jinghua, you are still so cautious, but I want to hear your thoughts."

Zhao Jinghua frowned for a moment and then chuckled, "Jingtai is kind to others and knows how to stabilize people's hearts. He is a good candidate."

Zhao Jinfang nodded and felt that what Zhao Jinghua said made sense. After a moment, he spoke earnestly, "Jinghua, you know that your father loves you the most. Sitting on the throne may not be a good thing. You have to understand..."

Zhao Jinghua nodded and chuckled, "Don't worry, I understand."

Zhao Jinfang nodded and said, "Stay in the palace today. Your mother misses you too."

Zhao Jinghua bowed and said, "Yes, I'll take my leave now." Zhao Jinfang patted his shoulder and said nothing more.

Zhao Jinghua nodded and smiled silently as he left Taiming Palace, looking very scary.

At the same time, Wan Sutong's face suddenly darkened, and the system froze in place. After a moment, it looked at Wan Sutong and said, "I'm sorry, host. I didn't know Zhao Jinfang would be like this."

Wan Sutong clenched his fists and gritted his teeth as he spoke, "That's 130,000 points! Your last host died when he became emperor!"

The system quickly covered its head and said, "People make mistakes, horses stumble... Host, I promise there will never be a next time." Wan Sutong bit her back teeth and looked at the system without saying a word.

Feng Ming sighed, "Don't be angry, I can give you fifty taels of silver at most." Unexpectedly, 0610 panicked in an instant, "Ah! Host! Are you still watching the fun? If Zhao Jinghua rebels, success is a good thing, but if he fails, the entire Fengming Tower will die!"

Feng Ming panicked instantly after hearing this, "I haven't lived long enough!"

Wan Sutong patted her on the back and said, "Look down, it doesn't necessarily mean rebellion."

At this time, Zhao Jinghua came to Fengyi Palace. He saw that there were not only Wu Yiwan but also Concubine Shu and Concubine De in the palace. Zhao Jinghua knelt on one knee, bowed and said, "My son pays respect to the queen mother and two aunts."

Wu Yiwan stood up from the main seat and helped Zhao Jinghua up. "Hurry up, why are you back? Isn't the army busy?"

Zhao Jinghua lowered his head slightly, "Father said that you missed me, so he let me stay in the palace for a day." Concubine Shu sneered, "Your Majesty is really interesting. Jinghua will live in the East Palace from now on, and stay for a day."

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and said, "Aunt, please don't talk nonsense."

"What!" The three of them were surprised at the same time. The corner of Shu Guifei's mouth twitched, "I said that your majesty is unusual. I am the daughter of a general, why did you give me the title of Shu in the beginning? And now I am still Shu..."

Zhao Jinghua sighed, "Father will make his own decision."

Seeing that there was no serious words, Feng Ming became anxious and shook Wan Sutong vigorously, "Don't look at it! Just follow my example and try to take me away before Zhao Jinghua rebels!"

Wan Sutong sighed, her eyes full of stars. "Do you think I can ascend within a few years? Zhao Jinghua's strength is not inferior to Zhao Jinfang. It is possible to kill him directly."

Feng Ming let go of Wan Sutong and said through gritted teeth, "What is the current emperor thinking? He left such an outstanding son behind and chose Zhao Jingtai, that reckless man."

Wan Sutong was a little confused, "But didn't Zhao Jinghua choose him too?"

At this time, Su Qinghui, who had not said a word, sighed and said, "He must know his father's character. Tongtong, you are still too naive." After that, Su Qinghui patted the back of Wan Sutong's hand and said, "Learn from Master Fengming."

Time passed in the blink of an eye and it was the next day. Wan Sutong got up early in the morning and kept an eye on Zhao Jinghua's movements. Zhao Jinghua was standing on the right. Next to him was Wan Yanzhong. The four princes stood behind Zhao Jinghua. Everyone knelt down and saluted. "Your son greets the emperor. Your servants greet Your Majesty."

Zhao Jinfang raised his hand and said, "Stand up, Eunuch Chen will announce the decree!"

Eunuch Chen stepped forward and read out the imperial edict: "The eldest prince Zhao Jinghua has a far-reaching character, brilliant ideas, great ambitions, and a flourishing career. He is filial and virtuous, has outstanding military achievements, is well-versed in all virtues, and is benevolent. He is responsible for the peace of all things. He is named the Crown Prince, granted the imperial seal, and takes the throne of the East Palace."

Zhao Jinghua was slightly stunned and quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Your son, I accept the order and thank you, father." Seeing this, Zhao Jinfang ignored the impoliteness in front of the palace and hurried down the steps to help Zhao Jinghua up, "My son, get up quickly, there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony."

Wan Sutong raised his right hand and excitedly high-fived the system, "Great!" However, Wan Sutong's strength was too great, and the system was knocked several meters away and embedded directly into the wall.

Wan Sutong looked at the system which was still in a daze, very embarrassed. "Um... I'm sorry."

The system shook its head vigorously, then sighed heavily and forgave Wan Sutong magnanimously. "Then this system will forgive you."

After the morning court session, Zhao Jinghua came to Fengming Tower. When Fengming saw Zhao Jinghua, he felt uneasy. "Boss, why are you here? Isn't the army busy?"

Zhao Jinghua nodded and sat in the main seat. "How is Miss Wan doing in her studies?"

Feng Ming sighed when he heard Wan Sutong, and walked over to pour a cup of tea for Zhao Jinghua. "Boss, I can't teach Miss Wan, please let other sisters go."

Zhao Jinghua frowned slightly. "What happened?"

Feng Ming's eyebrows were twisted together. "You know I am not from this world, and I am not a woman. It doesn't matter if others don't know my identity, but she..." Feng Ming didn't say anything else, and Zhao Jinghua must have understood.

Zhao Jinghua nodded calmly, "You know her, and is she a relative?"

Feng Ming nodded his head and said, "She is my sister. She should learn from me, but she laughs at me when I teach her."

Zhao Jinghua sighed and said, "If you teach her, I'll split the profits 30% and you 70% next time."

"Thank you, sir!" Feng Ming quickly agreed, fearing that Zhao Jinghua would go back on her word. But after a moment, she asked doubtfully, "Are you in love with Miss Wan?"

Zhao Jinghua picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He didn't answer or deny. Feng Ming saw this and immediately bowed his hands and said, "It's my fault for overstepping my authority."

"It's okay." Zhao Jinghua's tone was so calm that no emotion could be heard.

At this time, Feng Ming spoke tentatively, "Boss, I heard rumors that His Majesty has appointed the third prince as the crown prince."

Zhao Jinghua put down the teacup and chuckled, "It's just a rumor." Feng Ming felt like she had survived a disaster. She quickly bowed and said, "Congratulations, Boss."

Zhao Jinghua picked up the teacup again and took a sip of tea. "Zhou Lang, have you found out what Zhao Jingtai said in Taiming Palace?"

Zhou Lang frowned slightly, "His Majesty summoned the Third Prince that day to discuss the issue of establishing a crown prince. He intended to establish the Third Prince as the crown prince. The Third Prince first coaxed His Majesty around, and then said that he would never let His Majesty down, but he could not establish himself now, so he had to establish you first. His Majesty felt that he owed the Third Prince the position of crown prince." After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Jinghua, and seeing Zhao Jinghua nod, Zhou Lang dared to speak, "His Majesty also said that if there had been no Fengming Tower, rebellion three years ago would have been almost impossible. Although he does not want Your Highness to be the crown prince, you have to pretend for a few years in front of the world. He also thinks that the Third Prince is very sensible." After he finished speaking, everyone present carefully observed Zhao Jinghua's expression, but Zhao Jinghua remained calm, without any ripples.

After a long time, Zhao Jinghua sneered, but his tone was very calm, "I have been by his side for ten years, but in the end, I can't compare to my son whom I haven't seen for a long time. He is biased with just a few words."

At this time, a gorgeously dressed woman ran over and said, "Boss, Feng Ming's mother, the madam of the Dongcheng brothel is here and she has something urgent to tell you."

Zhao Jinghua nodded and said, "Let her in." Soon the mother of the brothel came up and said, "Boss Fengminglou, didn't you ask me to keep an eye on your brothers?" Zhao Jinghua nodded without saying anything.

The madam waved her handkerchief and said, "Two of them left. One had black hair and the other had silver hair. I don't know which one they are." Zhao Jinghua chuckled and turned a silver ingot into something and handed it to the madam.

The madam was so greedy that she didn't keep the secret any longer and immediately said, "It's the Third Prince who brought the Fifth Prince."

Zhao Jinghua picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Can you tell me more about this?"

The madam nodded and began to describe vividly, "You don't know, your third brother is really cunning. He tricked the fifth prince into the private room, and he left the building in less than half an hour. Before leaving, he gave me a jade bead string and asked me to keep it a secret, saying that he had not been here today." After saying that, she took out the jade bead string from her bosom and handed it to Zhao Jinghua. It was a string of deep red bracelets, and the jade beads seemed to be full of blood, emitting a dazzling red light in the sun.

Zhao Jinghua took the beads and looked at them intentionally or unintentionally, while Feng Ming sneered, "It seems that you can still tell the difference between a full meal and a full meal every time."

The madam gave a forced smile and said, "If it weren't for the owner of Fengminglou who bought this girl who only sells her art but not her body, my courtyard would have been ruined long ago."

Zhao Jinghua silently put the bracelet into his spiritual sea, and at the same time, he produced a silver note worth five hundred taels and handed it to the madam.

The madam took the banknote with a smile on her face and said, "Thank you, Fengminglou owner. I'm afraid this pearl necklace won't be worth five hundred taels even if it's pawned."

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and said, "Thank you for your help. I will go with you."
