"Emperor!"
Upon hearing this, Li Mingzhu froze, staring at her man in disbelief.
This was fifty million strings of cash, and he actually handed it over to her to increase her influence. This instantly turned Li Mingzhu's initial apprehension into excitement.
Her eyes welled up with tears, and she couldn't help but hug Lin Yi tightly. This man had surprised her once again, actually giving up fifty million strings of cash.
"Tsk tsk, she's even shedding golden tears!"
Looking at Li Mingzhu, her face streaked with tears, Lin Yi couldn't help but tease her. He had never seen the princess like this before; she had a unique charm.
In fact, he didn't really care about the 50 million strings of cash. Although the number seemed like a lot, it was really not enough compared to the size of the entire Great Liang.
Moreover, Great Liang is not short of money at all, and this is absolutely not bragging!
Although the wars in the Great Liang were ongoing, the wars fought by the Great Liang were all swift and decisive, without getting bogged down in a protracted conflict, so the losses suffered by the Great Liang were minimal.
On the contrary, the Great Liang successively destroyed the Zhennan Dynasty, and also incorporated the Great Ning and the Southern Tusi, and even the present-day Western Regions. A huge amount of resources from these areas fell into Lin Yi's hands.
Compared to this wealth, fifty million strings of cash seem insignificant.
Since she's already given herself to him voluntarily, it means she still values him as her man. This can be considered as revealing a major trump card.
Besides, although his wife had done good deeds and she had some credit, the credit still went to him. So Lin Yi was happy to oblige his wife; it was just a small amount of money.
Waaaaah!
Li Mingzhu burst into tears, clinging to Lin Yi and sobbing, "Your Majesty, I want to have your children, lots and lots of children..."
Before she could finish speaking, she had already kissed him.
Holy crap!
Lin Yi's pupils contracted. This woman was so audacious, directly embracing him and heading towards the inner palace.
Now that she has made the first move, a major battle is inevitable.
After their lovemaking, the princess lay softly in her husband's arms, her eyes glazed over, clearly not yet fully lucid, still feeling dizzy.
He's addicted to bad food!
Lin Yi kissed her, then got out of bed and headed outside.
Looking at Ma Ling'er outside, whose face was flushed, Lin Yi remained calm and asked in a deep voice, " Ling'er, what's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, the location of the treasure map has been found. Commander Wang Yue asked me to inform you," Ma Ling'er whispered.
The treasure trove has been found!
Lin Yi's eyes lit up. This speed was quite fast; it seemed the treasure location wasn't far away.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Where is the treasure hidden? Outside the city?"
"Your Majesty is inside the palace, and not far from here!"
Not far from here?
The Princess's Residence!
Lin Yi immediately realized what was going on and exclaimed, "What a clever Li Anlan! If this treasure were anywhere else, it might have been found long ago."
However, since it's in the Princess's residence, unless it's in the dark, no one would dare to rummage through it. This old fellow is really something else."
Although the Net organization suffered considerable losses in the capital, it wouldn't be easy to completely hide such a large sum of money. Now it seems that Li Anlan didn't hide it at all.
This guy played a clever trick; after all, who would have thought he would hide the money in the Princess's residence?
Moreover, as the woman of the ruler of Xiliang, who would dare to search the princess's boudoir? This inadvertently gave Li Anlan an opportunity.
Li Mingzhu had lived in the Princess's Mansion for a while, but after becoming Empress, she moved to a new residence, so she was never discovered. Fortunately, the guys from the Yamata Nation implicated Li Yifeng, which brought him out.
He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Father-in-law, you're such a good man. You've schemed so much, but unfortunately, Great Ning's fate is sealed. It will all be used as nourishment for my Great Liang."
Spreading out these 50 million strings of cash in benefits will surely give him tens of millions in credit for Win People Over with Virtue. He'll be feeling really good about it.
Lin Yi quickly arrived at the former residence of the Eldest Princess, which was already surrounded by Lü Qiling's Phoenix Guard. Men were forbidden from entering this place, and Wang Yue's entry today was a violation of the rules.
"Your Majesty, please forgive us, but the treasure is located in the Empress's former residence. We could only enter under the supervision of the Phoenix Guard. We discovered an underground palace here, containing a vast amount of treasure," Wang Yue said with a wry smile, looking at Lü Qiling's unfriendly expression.
Underground Palace!
Lin Yi nodded slightly. He had already instructed Lü Qiling to cooperate with the Net), so it wasn't a big deal.
Looking at the entrance to the treasure trove, he frowned and said, "There should be traps inside. Have we sent anyone in to check?" Rushing in recklessly could result in death.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, we have cleaned this place several times and even tested for toxicity. There are no problems now," Wang Yue said confidently.
That makes sense!
After all, they buried it in a hurry; they didn't have time for all the fancy stuff. If they made too much noise, it would be leaked.
He slowly walked down and saw several charred corpses in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, these must be the craftsmen who excavated the underground palace, or the people responsible for transporting the treasure inside," Wang Yue explained.
"I see. Father-in-law is indeed decisive and ruthless; he's silencing them outright."
As expected of a powerful and ruthless figure, he was absolutely vicious in his actions. To prevent leaks, he simply killed everyone, thus keeping the secret. He truly didn't blink an eye when it came to killing.
After having the burial done, Lin Yi went directly into the main room, where guards had already lit lamps to illuminate the way.
At first glance, it was a dazzling expanse of gold, with all sorts of brilliant lights flashing, as magnificent and colorful as a vast sky. Many guards couldn't help but squint their eyes.
Upon closer inspection, the contents were countless—gold, Mingzhu, jade, coral, and more. It was like several Dashan of gold. My father-in-law really knows how to save money!
Lin Yi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "This father-in-law knows how to hide things! He's actually hoarded so many good things. It seems he's still a bit unconvinced!"
This is clearly a premeditated plan to restore the kingdom; that's why he's hoarded so many treasures. The old man has quite a few schemes up his sleeve.
"We've taken stock, and there's about 60 million guan worth of valuables inside. Gold, silver, jewelry, necklaces, and other precious stones are countless, and jade and gemstones are piled up like mountains," Wang Yue exclaimed excitedly.
Although Great Liang is not short of money, no one can have too much of this stuff.
Sixty million strings of cash!
Upon hearing this number, Lin Yi immediately smiled; it seemed to be even more than Shenle had mentioned.
He couldn't help but laugh, "My father-in-law has some ideas!"
