In the book, the princess of the fallen country saved the country by eating melons

The second prince, who was sitting in the front row, also silently took out the book on mechanisms and read it.

The students who were studying together: “………………”

Okay, okay, this is how you all play, right?

Isn't it just a sister? Who doesn't have one?

Tian Li looked at the Third Prince who was still showing off his bow with a jealous look on his face, and thought about his younger sisters who were only capable of petty tempers and intrigue.

It’s as if he doesn’t have such a considerate sister, damn it.

He also wants a sister like this.

I really want to snatch Princess Zhaoyang away from me.

The third prince happened to see the desire in his friend's eyes, and held the thing in his hand tightly with a defensive look on his face.

"Tian Li, do you want it too, as you look at me? Don't covet my things. No one will buy them for you even if you covet them."

Tian Li sighed helplessly as he looked at the Third Prince's silly brother look.

Turn your head and look away.

Forget it, he doesn't bother with fools.

If he doesn't have the things, then he doesn't have them. At least he won't look so stupid.

There are also the Second Prince and Princess Changle, look at their worthless expressions.

At this time, the crown prince was discussing matters with the court officials in the East Palace, and he inadvertently revealed the new jade pendant he was wearing.

He held a letter in his hand, sat at the desk with a serious expression, and his kingly majesty was evident.

Master Lou and the others couldn't help but feel puzzled when they saw that the usually gentle prince had such a serious expression.

"Your Highness, has something serious happened?"

The prince came back to his senses from the shock of his father's letter and collected himself.

He cleared his throat and said.

"The emperor has sent new news from Hezhou. Let's take a look together, everyone."

The prince handed the latest letter he had received to Grand Tutor Lou who was waiting beside him.

When Master Lou took the letter and read it, his originally gentle expression suddenly became serious.

Seeing that Grand Tutor Lou's expression had become serious, Grand Tutor Shen and Grand Tutor Su couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Could it be that something really happened to His Majesty?

"Lord Lou?"

Master Shen asked tentatively.

Master Lou came back to his senses and handed the letter in his hand to Master Shen.

Then he bowed and said to the prince.

"Your Highness, may I take a look at the picture that Your Majesty mentioned in the letter?"

After reading the letter, Grand Tutor Shen and others at the back looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with the same serious expression as Grand Tutor Lou.

The prince nodded and handed the rag that his father had sent along with the letter to Grand Tutor Lou and others.

"Teachers, please look, this is the treasure map that my father mentioned."

Master Lou and others looked at the rag in the prince's hand and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Several senior and loyal ministers could not help but reveal doubts on their faces.

Is this rag-like map really the treasure map that Your Majesty mentioned?

Has Your Majesty been cheated by someone?

The prince looked at his teachers, all of whom had doubtful expressions on their faces.

I felt a sense of evil amusement in my heart.

That's right. How could he be the only one questioning his father?

Master Lou and others couldn't help but ask the prince.

"Your Highness, are you sure you didn't take the wrong thing, or has His Majesty been deceived?"

The prince put away his evil thoughts and shook his head seriously.

"No, Father only sent this one picture. As for whether it is true, we still need to verify it."

Master Lou and others took the treasure map from the prince's hand and looked at it with some disdain.

After looking for a while, his brows furrowed.

"Your Highness, this, this, this? Are you sure this is correct?"

The prince shook his head resolutely.

"Yes, that's it."

"Then this handwriting is even worse than what you wrote when you were learning calligraphy, Your Highness. I really can't understand it."

Master Shen commented.

"Then don't look at the picture. Didn't Father tell us where those things are hidden in the letter?"

"Let's just go and verify it."

The prince said as he played with the jade pendant Mo Sheng gave him.

"But what if it's not the one? Don't we still have to rely on this ghostly talisman to find it? And the first emperor of the previous dynasty hid the treasure under the dragon throne. Who of us dares to touch it?"

Yang Yanlei said hesitantly.

The Minister of Revenue, Lord Tian, ​​was the only one in the audience who had no doubt at all and looked ecstatic. It was great! He was going to be rich again.

"Oh, these are not a big deal. Since His Majesty can send the news back to His Royal Highness, he must have allowed His Royal Highness to confirm it."

Lord Tian looked at the prince expectantly.

The prince nodded and took out another letter his father had given him.

"My father has already solved this problem. He has ordered me to find out the truth."

"Since your majesty has made up his mind, then Your Highness, you can take people to investigate first, and then we will make plans."

Master Lou nodded and the others nodded in agreement.

The prince saw that everyone had the same opinion and had no other objections.

He immediately walked out of the East Palace and ordered people to go to the Qinzheng Hall for inspection.

Master Lou and others who were a step behind stroked their beards with a look of satisfaction on their faces.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is indeed His Majesty's child. No matter how gentle he looks, his vigorous and decisive personality is exactly the same."

Grand Tutor Shen, who was standing next to Grand Tutor Lou, also looked at his nephew with satisfaction at how outstanding he had become.

It was rare that he didn't talk back to Master Lou, so he sighed.

"Your Majesty has a way. After these few months of working in the court, the prince has lost the indecisiveness that we used to say about him."

"Your Majesty, there is someone to succeed you."

Yang Yanlei, Su Taifu and others also nodded in agreement, but as they looked at the prince who was gradually walking away, they couldn't help but remind him.

"My Lords, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has already gone far away."

Master Lou and Master Shen came back to their senses and cleared their throats.

Walking forward, when they arrived at the Qinzheng Hall, the prince had already led his men to search the hall inside and out.

"His Royal Highness."

Master Lou and the others bowed to the prince and stood aside waiting quietly.

The prince was also standing aside, playing with the jade pendant in his hand, and nodded when he heard this.

"Your Highness, there is indeed a mechanism here. I had someone open it and found a secret room inside."

Lin He walked up to the prince and told him about his discoveries with a serious expression.

"Take me there quickly."

Upon hearing this, the prince immediately asked.

At this time, Grand Tutor Lou and others who had already arrived at the Qinzheng Hall began to stop the prince.

"Your Highness, the situation inside is still unknown. You'd better be cautious. Let General Lin and the old ministers go in and investigate first. Only when you are sure there is no danger can you go in."

The prince frowned and said speculatively.

"The emperor of the previous dynasty must not be stupid enough to want his descendants to die. I don't think there should be any tricks in it."

Lin He also looked at the prince with disapproval, and tears came.

"Your Highness, His Majesty is away from home and has no idea when he will return. The court depends on you to support it. If anything happens to you, how will we explain to His Majesty?"

The prince was speechless as he looked at Lin He, a grown man crying and wiping his tears.

Just when I was about to turn around and seek help from Master Lou and others, I saw that they had the same expression.

The prince swallowed the rebuttal that was about to come out of his mouth.

"Alright, alright, I won't go."

When Lin He, Grand Tutor Lou and others saw that the prince had given up the idea of ​​going down in person, the tears on their faces disappeared.

The speed of his facial expression change was so fast that the prince standing beside him applauded.

He was deceived again. Just like Sheng'er said, he had too little experience.

The prince held his forehead helplessly and spoke to Lin He in a tone that did not allow for refusal.

"Your safety is the most important thing. If it is too dangerous, please withdraw immediately."

Lin He also nodded seriously.

"Don't worry, Your Highness."

Lord Tian actually wanted to go in, but he was just a poor civil servant. If there was danger inside, wouldn’t he become a drag?

Fortunately, Lin He and others did not let the prince and others wait too long and came out soon.

When Lin He came out, there was obvious joy on his face.

"Your Highness, I have already investigated the situation in this secret room. There is no danger. It is just a simple secret room, but its location is secret."

Lin He paused.

"And inside, just like your majesty, there are a lot of gold and silver treasures hidden."

Lin He continued speaking.

"Oh, what are you waiting for? I will go get someone to register now."

Lord Tian was even more anxious than the prince, he almost dragged Lin He in again.

"Ahem~" Master Su looked at Lord Tian with shining eyes and a look of disdain on his face.

This is the Minister of Revenue.

"Master Tian, ​​don't worry. This isn't your money. Why are you so anxious?"

Lord Tian glared at Master Su.

"What do you know? Since Your Majesty calls me a money bag, I will naturally collect all the money in the world for Your Majesty."

"Besides, the treasury is running out of money. How can I not be anxious?"

Master Su paused as he stroked his beard.

"Didn't His Majesty just give you that milk tea recipe so you can make money? And he even copied a few businesses before he left. How come you're out of money now?"

"It takes time to make money with that milk tea recipe. Do you think it doesn't take time?"

Lord Tian glared at Master Su with his beard puffed out, and was very dissatisfied with Master Su's misunderstanding of his words.

"Also, it's getting colder in the north lately, and the military expenses are getting more urgent. The water conservancy in Shuozhou also needs money. The little money we have now is simply not enough."

Tutor Su smiled awkwardly and begged for mercy from Lord Tian.

"Alright, alright, it's my fault, don't be angry."

"Hmph~" Lord Tian turned his head and continued to look at his prince with anticipation.

The prince looked at him with eager eyes.

"Let's go in and take a look."

Having said that, he walked into the secret room first.

After walking for about an incense stick's time, they saw a door.

There were Yulin soldiers guarding nearby, and the prince signaled them to open the gate.

Then I saw the secret room was magnificent and golden.

The night-shining pearls and oriental pearls scattered on the ground look round and plump.

Such as half-human-high red coral, Guanyin carved from white jade, and the four sacred beasts carved directly from whole jade.

There were imperial green and emerald jade pendants and bracelets, as well as countless other treasures scattered on the ground.

Not to mention the boxes of gold and silver ingots.

There were rows of them filling up half the secret room.

"My goodness, the first emperor of the previous dynasty is probably richer than our entire Beiyun now."

Lin He just took a quick look before leaving.

Now looking carefully at this magnificent room, I can't help but sigh.

Master Lou and others beside him also nodded blankly.

indeed.

No matter how powerful they are in the court and how influential they are in the eyes of others, they have never seen so much money.

Mo Yunshen, the crown prince of the current dynasty, couldn't help but be tempted by seeing so much money.

Money can move people's hearts. If you are not moved, it means you have not seen enough.

Suddenly, they were awakened by a burst of crazy shouting.

"I'm rich, I'm rich, hahahahaha, Beiyun is finally rich, I, Tian Daocheng, am finally rich, I finally don't have to worry about money to live."

The prince couldn't help but cover his eyes. Lord Tian looked so embarrassing.

Although Beiyun is indeed not rich, it is better than those countries in the west.

The prince and the others watched Lord Tian go crazy quietly. When Lord Tian felt that the atmosphere had calmed down a little, he turned around and saw that the prince and the others were looking at him helplessly.

"Ahem~ Your Highness, please forgive me. I was so excited when I saw so much money that I really lost my composure. I am ashamed, ashamed."

The prince smiled gently, his tone gentle.

"Nothing, Master Tian, ​​you are a person of true nature. You are thinking about Beiyun. I understand."

The prince then turned around and looked at Grand Tutor Lou and others.

"Since everyone has confirmed that the treasures from the previous dynasty that my father sent back are true, then Lord Tian, ​​you take people to register the things here, and I will go and reply to my father's letter."

Master Lou and others nodded and retreated with the prince.

"Go ahead, go ahead, Your Highness. Don't forget to help me get someone else. I won't go out."

Lord Tian said with a smile, without moving an inch.

Master Lou and others shook their heads helplessly and helped to get help.

As for the question of whether Lord Tian would embezzle money in there, they were not worried.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to sit firmly on the position of Minister of Revenue for so many years.

The prince and his entourage returned to the East Palace, and the prince wrote a letter to his father to report their achievements.

He looked at the messenger going away, smiled, and turned back to the meeting room of the East Palace.

"Your Highness, this is good. With this extra money, Your Majesty can go all out to fight, and no longer have to worry about the subsequent resource issues like before."

The Minister of War said with a relaxed look on his face that these days there were things going on because of the severe cold in the north and the war with the State of Qi in the east.

His brows had never been furrowed, but now they finally relaxed a little.

"Yes, this solves our biggest worry."

The prince sat at the table and replied gently, then he let out a long sigh.

"I don't know how my father and Princess Zhaoyang are doing. Every time my father sends me a letter, it's about government and military affairs.

He didn't write about their current situation or whether they were safe. "

Master Lou and the others saw that the prince was in low spirits and spoke in a calm tone.

"Your Highness, rest assured. His Majesty and His Royal Highness Princess are blessed by the heavens. This trip will definitely be a success."

As the news spread that the prince and others found the treasure of the previous dynasty in the Qinzheng Hall.

Yan Zigui, who was accompanying her mother to burn incense at Huguo Temple at this time, felt a sense of loss when she heard the news, but when she thought about it carefully, she couldn't grasp it.

Then he put the matter behind him and concentrated on accompanying Yan's mother to burn incense and worship Buddha.

As for Mo Sheng and others who were being talked about by the prince and others, they had just entered Jiazhou City.

[This is my fiefdom, right?]
