The Emperor was kissed by the Regent and cried again
Chapter 24: Taking advantage of the Regent's absence, sneaking into his house
Now, he is needed to help with setting up the stall, so it doesn’t matter if he likes to listen.
"Thank you, Brother Gu, for your help in setting up the stall."
"Hahaha…"
Hearty laughter filled the room. The little emperor was so lively and smart, but he was rumored to be numb and ignorant.
It's not his fault. After all, the court is controlled by the traitor Qin Yejue. He is probably willing but unable, so he is deliberately hiding his incompetence.
At the beginning, I misjudged him.
"I will go back to the palace first. When I make a lot of money one day, I will treat you to a feast."
"Okay, I'll wait."
The next day.
In the court...
As expected, the prefect informed him that there was gold in Guihua Village, and all the proceeds were used to revitalize Guihua Village and provide disaster relief.
Qin Yejue surprisingly did not make things difficult for himself and tacitly agreed to the disaster relief.
After leaving court, Shen Jingli went to the Qinzheng Hall to read the memorials from the beginning of the year to now. If he wanted the people to live and work in peace and contentment in the future, first of all, the national treasury must not be empty.
The abyss is so vast that if a natural disaster occurs again, the people will suffer.
After closing the memorial, Shen Jingli paused. It was strange. Why did he look more and more like an emperor?
Shen Jingli shook her head. She knew her own strengths and weaknesses. It was not easy to govern a country well. Now she was in the position and had to do her job. It would be better to let capable people take over in the future.
I just want to be a free and easy person, freedom is the truth.
Time flies and half a month has passed.
It is really troublesome to handle the permit document from the Patrol Office. It has been more than half a month and I still haven't received it.
Shen Jingli has not left the palace for some time, and he cannot set up a stall casually. There is no point in leaving the palace with empty pockets.
During this period, he spent almost every day in the Qinzheng Hall reading memorials, recognizing portraits, and learning about state affairs. When he felt sleepy, he would play and play with the pine and bamboo trees, which was quite cheerful.
But...it gets boring after a while.
"Shochiku, are you leaving the palace?"
"I'm not going anywhere, Your Majesty. You can't keep cheating me. You've almost ruined my wife."
"Do you have a girl you like?"
"No."
Shen Jingli teased, "How about using your wife's money and going out for another night of fun? Who knows, you might meet a girl you like."
"No, there's no rush for the girl, and there's no rush for the little one."
"Then why are you saving so much money? You are not in a hurry to get married."
"A coffin is also needed."
"Songzhu, look at the long term. From now on, as long as I have a bowl of rice to eat, you will have a sip of soup to drink."
Song Zhu was no longer surprised by Shen Jingli's bragging. "You should be frugal with the little money you earn, and don't ask me to borrow money from you."
"Don't worry, I will be rich soon. Poverty is only temporary."
"Where do you get your confidence from? Do you rely on selling quotas? I feel like laughing."
As a modern person, are you still afraid of not being able to make money?
Just pick out an idea and put it into practice, and it would make the ancients' eyes light up. All she needed to get rich was a little start-up capital and luck.
"That's wrong. It's easy to make money here. Follow me and you'll have no problem making a fortune. It just takes time."
Songzhu was immune to Shen Jingli's wild words. Although the little emperor was young, he had a big tone.
"No, where do you get your confidence from? I don't understand."
Shen Jingli smiled confidently: "I... have a cheat."
"What?"
"I am really only a little short of financial support to become rich."
"Getting rich overnight? Such a dream is for the night. You can't dream such a beautiful dream in broad daylight."
After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Shen Jingli alone and disheveled in the wind.
----
After another four or five days, Shen Jingli felt like she was going moldy. She was so bored lately that she would go back to the palace and lie down as soon as the court was over.
I don't know what happened to the Inspection Office. It hasn't been approved yet. Is Gu Sichen capable of doing it? I shouldn't have pinned all my hopes on him. Now I feel so disappointed.
Also, I don’t know what Qin Yejue has been busy with recently. He hasn’t attended court for more than ten days. Could he have died outside?
If this is true, it can barely be considered a good thing.
Shen Jingli was really bored after his nap, so he chatted with Nanny Qiu.
"Mammy, why do you want me to dress up as a man? I also want to wear a beautiful dress and have a nice bun."
"Little ancestor, don't say such things anymore." Nanny Qiu pulled Shen Jingli back into the house. How could the emperor forget such an important matter?
After making sure that there was no one outside the door, he spoke with relief.
"The late emperor doted on your mother, but she was weak and sickly, so he used all kinds of precious medicinal herbs to help her prolong her life, which cost a lot."
"Over time, the ministers in the court also consciously or unconsciously reminded the late emperor that he was too extravagant."
"Later, the late queen became pregnant, and the gynecologist, Imperial Physician Liu, diagnosed the baby as a boy, which temporarily silenced the gossips. I was the one who delivered you, and I was terrified when I saw that you were a princess."
"The late queen couldn't bear to see the late emperor being blamed, so she lied and said it was a boy. Alas, the late queen was too worried and passed away when you were two years old. She said, "I'm sorry for you," and asked me to serve you well."
Nanny Qiu took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and Shen Jingli patted Nanny Qiu on the back.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if I don't comb my beautiful hair. Besides, I don't like wearing skirts."
"The emperor has become much more sensible, and it hurts me as a servant to see this."
"I'm fine, Mammy, don't be sad. So, was the treasury empty at that time?"
"The late emperor was elegant, easy-going, humble and polite. The only thing he was criticized for was his obsession with giving the late emperor a new life. No matter who presented him with natural treasures, he would be greatly rewarded."
"However, the emperor is also kind to the people. He is never lenient in allocating funds to people in times of natural disasters or man-made disasters. There are reasons why the treasury is empty."
Shen Jingli: "The past is long gone, Mammy, go wash up. I want to feed the fish to pass the time."
"Okay, I'll take my leave."
After Nanny Qiu left, Shen Jingli threw fish food into the fish tank out of boredom.
Watching the fishes scrambling for food, Shen Jingli muttered, "Xiaohong, you should be more motivated. Even if I throw something near your mouth, Xiaohuang will snatch it away."
"Xiao Huang, aren't you full? If you die, I'll have to bury you."
"Hey? Little Yellow, will you and Little Red give birth to a Little Green?"
"What does yellow plus red equal?"
……
"Hey, can you still talk to fish?" A familiar voice sounded, and Shen Jingli turned his head to see who it was.
This guy must be sick, wearing black in broad daylight.
"Why are you here?"
He met the masked thief at the West Corner Gate. He was wearing black clothes in broad daylight. Did he know how conspicuous he was?
Chu Beixiao clasped his fists and walked over quickly. "Isn't it easy to enter the palace? Is it difficult?"
Chu Beixiao snatched the fish food from Shen Jingli's hand and threw it into the fish tank, causing the little fish to startle and hide here and there.
"Hey...you!" A more ferocious fish flipped over the water and jumped into Shen Jingli's arms.
The fish jumped out of the water and accidentally fell to the ground. Shen Jingli bent down to pick it up, but the fish was slippery and difficult to catch.
Chu Beixiao said with a smile: "You really are an axe without a handle."
"What?" Shen Jingli wiped the sweat off his forehead, finally caught the little fish, and threw it back into the fish tank.
"It's useless."
"You came here just to criticize me?"
"How about we steal from the treasury tonight?"
Shen Jingli snatched the fish food back and shook his head, "I think stealing from the national treasury is inappropriate, young man, the sea of suffering is endless, it is better to turn back."
"Thieves will be despised by everyone." Shen Jingli preached earnestly.
Only when the national treasury is full can the people live and work in peace and contentment. This masked man in black has impure motives and must not be allowed to enter. Having Qin Yejue, a jackal and tiger, is enough to give me a headache.
"You didn't seem to say that some time ago."
Shen Jingli laughed dryly: "I washed my hair more frequently recently, so my brain is full of water. I am just talking nonsense, don't take it seriously."
"I knew you were a coward. I'll go by myself."
Shen Jingli grabbed Chu Beixiao and said, "If you dare to go there, I will shout that there is a thief."
"You... I know you have bad intentions, you coward."
"Don't steal. The treasury is empty. There's not much left."
Even the disaster relief funds were raised temporarily, and there must be nothing valuable in the national treasury. If you really go there, there is a high probability that you will work in vain and get nothing.
"In that case, why don't we steal Qin Yejue's small treasury?"
