After I killed him for 9,000 years, he was reborn.

"Dad, you went to the emperor to ask for money again."

"How do you talk like that, kid?

How can this be called taking advantage of the situation?

This is the emperor’s grace to us.”

The Minister of Revenue, who was holding a fat turtle in his left hand and a rabbit in his right hand, did not even have time to put down the things in his hands. He looked respectfully in the direction of the imperial palace, holding the rabbit and turtle in his hands and bowed lightly.

"Yes, it is the emperor's grace to us."

"Well, you must admit that the emperor's favor to us this time is quite real. The rabbit prepared by the imperial kitchen is quite fat."

The skinny minister, who was as thin as a monkey, raised the cage in his hand in front of his daughter Li Shiliu in a show-off manner and smiled with his teeth showing.

"The little white rabbit is so white. Lift up its two ears. After cutting its arteries and veins, it is so cute lying there motionless. Peel off the skin, chop it into pieces, and stir-fry it in a pot. Add water and cover it. Sprinkle coriander before serving. Bring a bowl and a pair of chopsticks, open your mouth and taste a piece. It is not too salty, and the taste is not too bland. It is really a delicious dish to go with wine.

Butler Jin, take this rabbit to the kitchen and we'll have a delicious braised rabbit tonight."

Looking at the fat, white rabbits shivering in the cage with a smile, Li Shiliu reached out through the iron cage and poked the fat butt of the fattest rabbit, then arranged a way out for them with a smile.

The tactful Butler Jin immediately took the rabbit and turtle from the Minister of Revenue.

"We'll serve braised rabbit tonight. What about this turtle?"

"Put the turtle in the pond in the palace for two days. I've gotten quite a bit of favor from the emperor this time..."

"Bah, I was wrong, try again...

Today, the Emperor was in a very good mood when he heard that the concubine in the harem was pregnant. He rewarded me with a large table of imperial dishes. This is the Emperor's grace, and it also allows us all to share in the joy.

I think this rabbit is fat and strong, suitable for making braised rabbit meat tonight.

The imperial dishes on that table are all gifts from the Emperor, and they cannot be wasted. Let’s put this turtle in the pond in the palace for a few days, and then have another meal tomorrow after the imperial dishes bestowed by the Emperor are finished.”

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Butler Jin carried the rabbits and turtles that had been clearly arranged, bowed slightly, and went down.

The eunuchs in the imperial kitchen have become accustomed to this weird Minister of Revenue who would find all kinds of excuses to go to the imperial kitchen to ask for money every month. Once the things in the imperial kitchen enter the Minister of Revenue's mansion, they will never come back.

The eunuchs from the imperial kitchen who helped deliver the food put down the things in their hands as if they were familiar with the procedure, and under the leadership of the chief steward of the imperial kitchen, they bowed slightly to the Minister of Revenue and prepared to leave.

But before leaving, that expectant yet resentful look glanced at Li Shiliu beside her.

This was not the first time that Li Shiliu skillfully took out a bulging purse from her body and handed it to the steward of the imperial kitchen with a smile.

The steward of the imperial kitchen, who had received the benefit, immediately grinned from ear to ear. He did not even have time to look closely, fearing that someone would snatch it away. He quickly put the bulging purse into his pocket and slipped away with a group of his younger brothers.

After leaving the gate of the Minister of Revenue's Mansion, the chief steward of the imperial kitchen weighed the purse in his hand and whispered something to his disciple.

"Xiao Dezi, today the master will tell you that in this capital, there are a few particularly shameless people who you should not mess with, and this Minister of Revenue is one of them."
