"Yesterday in the court, Chongyue was quite as majestic as I was in my youth. She is indeed my good daughter."

Liang Chongyue had her signature sweet smile on her face, sitting quietly and obediently listening to her scumbag father's promises.

"It's because Father was willing to teach me personally that I have the opportunity to emulate you. When I was young, while my brothers and sisters were still listening to enlightenment books, I listened to stories about Father's great achievements in the first half of his life and his bravery on the battlefield. After hearing so many stories, I naturally followed his example."

Liang Chongyue did not lie at all about this.

When she was a child, her scumbag father seemed to have nothing to do in the court and was bored.

For a while, I seemed to be obsessed with her and liked to hug her and tell her the thrilling stories of my youth.

This included countless near-death experiences, the blessing of heaven, the help of gods, the betrayal of former true brothers in the court, and the near-backstabbing by his own people while fighting outside, resulting in death at the border.

The scumbag father loved to describe himself as miserable, and then it took 100% effort plus 1% luck to create an emperor like him who will be remembered forever.

He was simply the destined emperor. No matter how hard others tried, it was all in vain. The right time, place and people were all right, and the throne was destined to be his.

Then when she was a little older, her scumbag father would use this theory of 100% effort and 1% luck to fool her.

It is no exaggeration to say that Liang Chongyue felt that the most important reason why he wanted to move out of the palace was that his scumbag father was too good at CPU, and his CPU was not just talk, you had to do whatever he said.

I can’t do it to his satisfaction, or I’m not as hardworking as he was when he was a child.

He would immediately feel that this boy had average talent and no desire to improve himself, and was not the material for the prince charming. No matter how much effort he put into training him, he would still be a waste.

It is difficult to carve a rotten piece of wood.

This is why, after so many years, since the era of the deposed empress and the Dugu family has passed.

Children were born one after another in the palace, but her scumbag father only brought her up by his side.

With her leading the way, how can the scumbag dad look down on others?

"They are all my children. If your useless brothers could work half as hard as you, they wouldn't be in the state they are in now."

Liang Chongyue just smiled and said nothing. Being in the royal family, he had no choice.

Just as there are smart people in this world, there are naturally not-so-smart people.

Energy must be conserved so that the world can develop sustainably.

Liang Chongyue didn't respond to his scumbag father's words and changed the subject.

"Didn't the Emperor say he summoned me today to discuss two matters? Could it be that he simply wanted me to come in and admire the tribute vase from Dai Viet?"

Liang Zhan looked at Chongyue's impatient expression and snorted in annoyance.

He naturally knew that Chongyue was going to leave the palace today. She had just come of age, but she was unwilling to stay at home. Whose daughter was so naughty? But he couldn't say anything, otherwise she would say that he couldn't afford to play with her.

"I know you can't wait, so don't forget to say goodbye to your mother before leaving the palace."

Liang Zhan helplessly patted the heavy books piled high on the desk.

"This is the main category of the National Treasury's records for this year. Take it back and take a good look at it. After you're done, come back and exchange it for the National Treasury's account books from previous years. The National Treasury is under the supervision of a dedicated person. Once you've finished reading all of this, I'll hand over both the people and the treasury to you."

After Liang Zhan finished speaking, he looked at Chongyue's motionless and somewhat stiff smile, pondered for a moment, and added:

"The national treasury is of great importance and concerns the millions of people in Daxia. Chongyue should understand my painstaking efforts."

Liang Chongyue had a smile on his face, but he was mad inside.

I've known for a long time that getting something from my scumbag father is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

How could he just give her the national treasury, which is related to the lifeblood of the entire country of Daxia, just by talking about it casually?

Liang Chongyue looked up and down at the pile of books on the desk. There were at least twelve or thirteen of them. After he finished reading them, he would have to come here to accept the test of his scumbag father. Only after passing the test could he get the account book.

It was like killing monsters and leveling up. She had been practicing for so long and had found a lot of rare treasures. She thought she was only one step away from evolution and ascension. But now she was told that all the tasks before were actually novice tasks.

She just left the Novice Village.

There are still thousands of difficulties and dangers waiting for her ahead, but even though the road ahead is full of dangers, she cannot give up halfway. What is more terrifying than these dangers is her scumbag father.

This moody old man has been training her for so long, and once he finds that she has any desire to retreat or show cowardice,

I don’t know how many things are on Lao Deng’s mind.

I'm afraid that he will take back all the kindness he has shown her, and from then on, she will be treated the same as her brothers and sisters in the heart of her scumbag father.

She had no way to retreat, her mother was still in the palace, and she could only move forward. Fortunately, the path chosen by her scumbag father was similar to the path she wanted to take before, so she didn't have to spend so much effort to secretly build up her own power like a thief in this patriarchal society.

Liang Chongyue got down from the chair, swung his luxurious court robes in front of him, knelt down neatly, and kowtowed to his scumbag father.

"I will live up to my father's teachings. I will study hard, manage the national treasury well, and protect the future of the people of Daxia."

"Good boy, get up quickly. I trust you, so I offered to hand over the national treasury to you. I believe you will not let me down."

Liang Zhan nodded with satisfaction. As expected, Chongyue was the most sensible and the one that gave him the least worry.

Liang Chongyue had just stood up from the ground when he saw his scumbag father picking up the white jade bottle with kesi enamel craft and playing with it again.

Liang Chongyue was puzzled. How long had it been since she last visited the Yangxin Palace? Did her scumbag father's hand-held ornaments now come in such oversized sizes?

Liang Zhan's fingers caressed the not-so-fine craftsmanship on the white jade bottle, and he spoke to Chongyue as if chatting casually:

"Dai Viet is small and weak, but it has survived thanks to its abundance of precious medicinal herbs. Several small nations around it have been plotting against it for years. Now that the old leader of Langwa has died, the new leader is young and energetic, hoping to establish himself and is preparing to go to war with Dai Viet."

"Dayue sent people over a thousand miles to deliver ten boxes of herbs and two boxes of jewelry. They arrived yesterday afternoon. Qi Deyuan picked out this brocade enamel white jade vase and found it quite appealing. He also presented it to the emperor along with Dayue's letter requesting assistance. What do you think of this, Chongyue?"

Liang Chongyue narrowed her eyes. What did she mean by "how does she see it?" She just watched from the sidelines. How else could she see it?

She couldn't make the same decision as her scumbag father.

I don’t understand what the scumbag dad means. Does he want to fight or not?

Dai Viet and Langwa were both vassal states of Daxia, and a war between the two countries could be avoided with just a decree from their scumbag father.

No matter how young and energetic the new leader of Langwa is, he would never dare to compete with Daxia.

Liang Chongyue was thinking about it when his father's voice rang out again, with a hint of laughter in his tone:

"Dayue's letter of request for assistance stated that they were willing to send their legitimate prince to marry into Daxia, and only requested that Daxia provide some support. Chongyue, do you think this deal is worth doing?"
