Chapter 241 Is that girl still human?
When the rubble was cleared away, what appeared before everyone's eyes was still the entrance to a secret passage.
The commander of the Imperial Guards turned his head to look at the emperor and was about to ask for instructions when a figure like a big black rat flashed before his eyes. With a whoosh, it rushed into the secret passage and disappeared.
Everyone: What the hell?
Huo Yunting, who had just found the little girl, walked up to the emperor, whose eyes were blank, and whispered to the devil in his ear:
"If you don't go down now, all the gold and silver in there will be lost."
The emperor was shocked when he heard this.
Oh no, it’s that damn girl!
"Hurry, hurry, get down here!"
The emperor reacted quickly, picked up his robe and rushed into the secret passage, not forgetting to urge the rest of the people.
That girl knows the Five Ghosts Moving Technique and is also a little money-grubber. You can imagine what's inside the thing that could make her jump so fast!
But the emperor had only run a few steps inside when he keenly sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly retreated. Fortunately, the people behind him had not yet squeezed in. He had just taken a step back when the sound of arrows breaking through the air was heard from the dark secret passage.
A sharp arrow with a cold glow passed right by his face.
The emperor reached out and touched the place on his face where the arrow had just grazed him. He was shocked and felt a wave of fear in his heart. If he had been a moment slower, he would have died here today!
Damn right prime minister!
No, where is the little girl?
"Torches, torches!
Bring me a torch!"
The emperor's heart was in his throat, and he shouted anxiously to the person behind him.
He only dared to follow the little girl in after seeing her enter, but there were actually mechanisms and hidden weapons in the secret passage. Where was the little girl?
The father and son said that there were many magical artifacts in their village called Sangjia Village. If the little girl really died in the imperial city, they would come and fight with them!
After witnessing the strangeness of the corpse with his own eyes, the emperor no longer doubted what the Huo father and son had said to him.
Soon Huo Yunting came in holding a torch. He shone his hand into the dark secret passage. There were only arrows scattered on the ground in the dim secret passage, but no one was there.
The emperor was confused again and asked:
"What about people?"
Huo Yunting frowned and was silent for a moment, then hesitantly said:
"He should have gone in..."
This was the only explanation that made sense. He had also seen that girl's speed before. It was likely that she had already entered the secret room before the mechanism reacted...
Hearing people talk about it was not as shocking as seeing it with his own eyes. The emperor mumbled for a long time and couldn't utter a word.
Just go in with whatever you have, right?
Is that girl still human?
As an emperor, what kind of things hasn't he seen?
But he had never seen this thing before...
The emperor swallowed unconsciously, retreated from the secret passage with a look of doubt on his face, and asked someone to break the mechanism in the secret passage first.
An hour later, after they had broken the mechanism in the secret passage, the emperor led his men into the secret room.
When the torches illuminated the secret room, everyone looked and was almost blinded!
Gold!
So much gold!
The whole room is filled with golden gold!
The walls and the floor were covered with neatly arranged gold bricks and gold ingots.
The "big black rat" that had jumped in earlier was lying on the platform made of gold bricks with its arms and legs spread out, snoring softly.
For a moment, everyone didn't know what to exclaim about first.
Only the emperor's back teeth were almost broken at this time.
"Go give me some!"
These four words were almost squeezed out from between the emperor's teeth.
The emperor was so furious that all the ministers dared not even breathe.
Although the Right Prime Minister holds a high position, it is obvious that the gold that appears here far exceeds what is normal for someone in his position.
At this time, the Minister of Revenue in the crowd was trembling and his eyes were blacking out.
Shishi was gently awakened by the Royal Guards who were counting the gold.
Perhaps it was because he was in a particularly good mood sleeping on the golden bed, that Shisi didn't get upset when he was woken up. Instead, he jumped down from the golden brick platform swiftly to make room for them.
Shishi rubbed her sleepy face and walked up to the emperor. She took her half-clenched fist away from her eyes, and then she saw the expression on the emperor's face. She tilted her head and looked at him in confusion for a while, then asked in surprise:
"Why aren't you happy?"
I gave him all the gold, and he's not happy?
In fact, it was impossible to let her go. When Huo Yunting went to look for the mother and daughter and came back, he asked what was in the secret room. After learning that there were a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, he discussed with her and told her not to touch them for the time being. These needed to be counted one by one so that they could be used to convict the Right Prime Minister.
After the boxes are counted and sealed, let her take them secretly if she wants them.
Of course, the most important thing is to take less and don’t take it all!
That's why everyone came in now to see this scene, otherwise there would only be an empty secret room with nothing in it.
Faced with the little girl's childish inquiries, the emperor tried hard to pull the corners of his mouth, and pulled out a smile that was uglier than crying.
"No, I am happy."
For ordinary people, one should be happy to see a room full of gold.
But to him, these golds were a shame, a shame for him as the emperor of Daxia.
He has been on the throne for decades, and most of the lifeblood of Daxia is still firmly in the hands of these aristocratic families. How can he be happy?
Shishi pursed her lips and stopped talking, because although this man said he was happy, she could feel a strong sense of sadness from him.
Shi Shi has always been a bully who only fears the weak. Faced with such an emperor, Shi Shi didn't know what to do.
He could only subconsciously cast a helpless look at his parents, but after searching around, he couldn't find them.
When he used his special ability to look out, he found that his parents and younger brother were huddled at the back of the crowd.
Alas~ these unreliable parents!
My parents are unreliable, so I can only rely on myself. I pursed my lips and thought about it.
Could it be that this person is unhappy because he thinks there is too little gold?
The corpse wanted to punch him twice, but seeing how old and pitiful he looked, he held back.
The little face was tangled for a long time, and then she reached out and tugged at the emperor's sleeve, and asked in a soft voice:
"Do you like silver and jewelry?
If you like, I can take you there."
Forget it, just give it all to him and make him happy. Anyway, I can take it back together in the end.
The emperor looked up with a puzzled look at the little hand that was pulling his sleeve, and was stunned again by what he saw.
This gentle voice, this concerned expression, could this little girl be trying to comfort me?
There is no harm without comparison. This made the emperor feel bad, and he nodded repeatedly in response:
"I like it, go go go!"
Huo Lingxing, who was standing by, saw this scene and stared at the corpse with a resentful look like a woman in the boudoir. He was so angry that his hands were not idle either. He pinched Haodaer's arm and murmured in a low voice with gritted teeth:
"Why, why shouldn't I be treated this way?"
We've known each other for so long, but the boss still only knows how to use his fists to coax him!
