The tyrant is changing the plot madly because of the fake princess's voice
Chapter 278 Were You Robbed?
A eunuch easily took away all the debris on Jiang Yanchuan's desk, and then Eunuch Changshun carefully spread out a scroll on it.
It was a very detailed map of the terrain around the Lin Mansion.
Jiang Yanchuan raised his hand and pointed at several places in a row: "I have sent people to buy these rooms."
His purpose is very straightforward.
The purpose of these mansions is to monitor Fang Yiwan's actions. If she is willing to stay in a secluded corner, then they can all live in peace.
If she really had such evil intentions as Fang Siwan said, then the people living in these houses would be the first obstacle to her.
He just wanted to ensure the little guy had a smooth life.
The court officials who gathered around him held their breath.
The houses pointed out by Emperor Mingze were not connected, and in some directions, there was not even a single usable house marked.
It was obviously purchased in a hurry under emergency circumstances.
It was only a little over an hour since the New Year's Day banquet ended, but after finding out the truth of the matter, Emperor Mingze had already arranged the follow-up matters in such a swift and decisive manner!
Duke Wang, who had racked his brains at home and could only think of retiring to his hometown and taking the little one with him, lowered his head.
After returning, Lu Yao turned his eyes away without even bothering to interrogate the people who were escorted to prison today and just made a small booklet before hurriedly entering the palace.
Kan Ruifeng coughed twice.
Jiao Hongmiao touched the tip of his nose.
Everyone had different levels of embarrassment on their faces. Jiang Yanchuan saw all these little movements, but he pointed out a few more as if he hadn't seen them -
"The people at the manor house agency said that these rooms can only be rented out, and we can negotiate with the owners in person tomorrow."
Since this matter has to be carried out privately, it cannot be forced to sell in the name of imperial power. That is why the matter has been delayed until now.
The people gathered at the innermost circle bowed with complicated expressions and silently retreated behind the crowd, allowing the people behind them to come forward and watch.
The second group of officials came forward with curious looks on their faces.
Just one look and everyone gasped!
Among the densely packed houses painted on the scroll, triangles or circles marked with red ink are firmly placed in the center. The circles represent houses that have already been purchased, while the triangles represent houses that are still under negotiation.
Everyone was blinded by the circular signs that seemed to be connected into a piece. They felt that the circle did not seem to be drawn with a red pen, but rather looked like pieces of gold ingots were melted and painted with a wolf-hair brush!
The houses in that area were famously expensive, and Emperor Mingze bought one directly, and he didn't intend to stop...
How much does this cost?!
The second group of officials retreated in silence, and their colleagues from the periphery stepped forward to watch.
Then, the previous process was repeated.
There was only one exception to the whole process.
General Guide Lei Zhixin said bluntly: "Your Majesty, are you so rich?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the imperial study fell into a silence that was even more eerie than before, and everyone's breathing unconsciously became much lighter.
All the civil and military officials looked at the only stupid colleague in the hall with a look of annoyance, but in their hearts they somewhat agreed with what he said.
Emperor Mingze was not greedy for pleasure.
Since he ascended the throne, except for a few palaces that have been simply renovated due to various problems, the Da Rui Palace has basically maintained its appearance during the reign of the previous emperor.
Emperor Mingze was not extravagant on weekdays, but he often rewarded meritorious officials and often used money from his private treasury to subsidize military supplies. Therefore, although he was the king of a country, the court officials were very clear that he was not as wealthy as the rulers of other countries.
Now suddenly I have purchased so many properties...
Everyone's eyes turned to the Minister of Revenue Jiao Hongmiao who was standing behind the crowd. The gleam in his eyes could be interpreted as -
Were you robbed?
If yes, just blink!
Jiao Hongmiao: “…”
Thanks for the invitation, he was also shocked.
Jiang Yanchuan turned his head expressionlessly and glanced at Lei Zhixin opposite him. Then, as if he had thought of something funny, he raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "I also suddenly had this a few days ago."
Thinking of the mountains of gold and silver in the side room under the cold palace, he also remembered the cunning look of the little guy when he was cheating people. Jiang Yanchuan lowered his head slightly, and the smile on the corners of his lips deepened a little.
Suddenly——
A not-too-bulky purse appeared in the field of vision.
Jiang Yanchuan was unable to hide his expression for a moment, and when he raised his head, there was still a hint of doubt in his eyes that had not yet faded away.
"Hey, the financial power of my family is in the hands of my wife. I will ask my wife for more when I go back." Lei Zhixin scratched his head in embarrassment. "This is related to the lifelong event of the young prince. I should contribute my part."
This sentence gave everyone a new way of thinking. After a moment of stunned silence, they all started to search for valuable items on their bodies with a look of sudden enlightenment!
A small mountain of things immediately formed on the table.
For the first time in his life, Jiang Yanchuan showed such an expression in front of civil and military officials.
Five points of surprise, three points of shock, and two points of scrutiny—
After returning to the palace, the ministers didn't even have time to change their clothes, but locked themselves in the study, racking their brains to think of ways to help the little guy escape the crime.
At this moment, the clothes and attire of all the civil and military officials were exactly the same as when they attended the banquet.
In order to leave the envoys with the impression that the country was powerful, they all wore the most valuable items possible, and the pouches around their waists were filled with all their private money.
Now all these things are on his desk.
Moving my eyes further, I saw the small purses on everyone's waist.
Lei Zhixin covered it up as if facing a formidable enemy: "No, this is a New Year's Day gift from the young prince to me!"
How precious!
Only they have it!!
Jiang Yanchuan: "..."
Jiang Yanchuan's lips moved, and he was about to ask them to take back their purses, when he saw several slender hands stretched out from the side, each holding a pile of jewelry, and placed them directly on the "hill".
Queen Kan Nianzhen stood in the center of the team, feeling very happy and smiling very beautifully: "I still have a lot of jewelry in my palace, I will send someone to deliver them all later."
"There are some in my palace, too!"
"I will go back and get it now!"
The beautiful faces that are always calm on weekdays finally showed their true beauty today.
Jiang Yanchuan: "..."
He slowly let out a breath and said in a deep voice: "Gu——"
A palace servant came in hurriedly trotting. This time, his footsteps were not as light as before and his expression was a little anxious, successfully interrupting Jiang Yanchuan's words.
Upon seeing this, Eunuch Changshun hurriedly took a few steps forward.
The two of them soon came together and whispered.
Then, Eunuch Changshun froze, was shocked, and shouted loudly: "What?!!!"
