The Regent's Concubine is Crazy

Chapter 402

Shangguan Ziling gently opened her lips and continued, "Uncle, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

The emperor looked at her cheerfully and said, "Oh? If you have anything else to say, Ziling, just tell me."

Zi Ling took a deep breath and slowly told about her shocking actions in recent days - she actually emptied the warehouse of Lingxiao Palace and put all the valuables into her space.

The emperor was extremely shocked. He stared at Zi Ling with wide eyes, and it took him a while to react. He was extremely surprised and said, "You, you, you little girl, you are too brave."

However, Zi Ling did not feel scared or regretful. She took a deep breath, looked at the emperor firmly, and said, "Uncle, take me to the treasury now. I will put all the things in the Lingxiao Palace treasury into the treasury."

The emperor's eyes flashed with joy when he heard this. The treasury had been empty for a long time, which was exactly his headache. Now that Zi Ling had made such a suggestion, it was undoubtedly a timely help. He nodded and took Zi Ling to the treasury.

In the national treasury, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings piled up like mountains. However, under Zi Ling's spatial power, these treasures seemed to become invisible. She waved her hand, and the treasures collected from the Lingxiao Palace's storehouse appeared in the national treasury one by one.

The emperor was shocked when he saw the treasure that suddenly appeared. Although he had heard about the space from Zi Ling, seeing this scene with his own eyes still made him feel unbelievable. He walked forward and touched the gold and silver jewelry, his eyes flashing with excitement.

"Zi Ling, your space is truly amazing." The emperor exclaimed, "With these treasures, the problem of an empty treasury can finally be alleviated."

Zi Ling smiled slightly and said: "Uncle, this is just my gift of gratitude. Anyway, these were taken from the warehouse of Lingxiao Palace, and they also belong to the North Country."

The emperor laughed loudly upon hearing this, his voice was loud and full of majesty, "Ziling, whatever you want, just tell me, your uncle will give it to you." The emperor said, his face filled with a doting smile. He looked at Shangguan Ziling, his eyes full of love and care.

Shangguan Ziling bowed slightly and replied respectfully: "Uncle, Ziling doesn't want anything."

The emperor looked at Shangguan Ziling, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then turned into deep praise. He sighed and said, "You are a very sensible child. However, since your uncle said he would give it to you, just ask for it."

Shangguan Ziling smiled slightly, raised her head, looked at the emperor, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes. She said, "Uncle, Ziling only wants peace and prosperity for the country and the people to live in peace."

The emperor was stunned when he heard this, and then a trace of appreciation flashed in his eyes. He nodded and said, "Okay, Zi Ling, I am very happy that you have this intention."

Shangguan Ziling said something to the emperor, then took his leave and returned to the palace.

Shangguan Ziling sat quietly by the window, her eyes looking through the exquisite window lattice at the busy palace maids and eunuchs outside.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the entire palace is immersed in a festive atmosphere, but her heart seems to be tied by certain thoughts, unable to fully immerse herself in this joy.

The little fat boy in the space suddenly spoke, breaking the moment of silence: "Master, you are too generous. You gave all the money collected in the Lingxiao Palace's treasury to the Northern Kingdom's treasury." There was a hint of regret in the little fat boy's voice.

Shangguan Ziling smiled gently, with a hint of indifference and determination in her smile: "It is the Lingxiao Palace that extorted the money of the people of the Northern Kingdom and put it into the national treasury. It is as it should be." Her words were concise and powerful, revealing a deep thought and determination.

The little fat man seemed to be touched by her answer. He was silent for a while before he spoke again: "But, the master risked his life to break into the Lingxiao Palace and took it. Why didn't he keep some of it?"

Shangguan Ziling shook her head, her eyes becoming more profound: "Money is something outside of one's body. Gains and losses are nothing but passing clouds. What is really important is that this money can be used to benefit the people and let the people of the Northern Kingdom live a better life. Besides, I still have a lot of money in my space, not less than the storehouse of Lingxiao Palace."

The little fat boy said: "Yeah, at worst I can go back to the Dongyue Dynasty and visit a few corrupt officials' homes."

The fat boy's words made Shangguan Ziling laugh and cry.

The sky outside the window gradually darkened, while the lights in the palace became brighter and brighter. Shangguan Ziling stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the busy people outside. A warm current surged in her heart.

As night fell, the lights in the palace shone on Shangguan Ziling's face, her eyes were firm and bright.

By tomorrow, New Year's Eve, when the cancer King Lingxiao is completely dealt with, she will be able to leave the North Country with peace of mind.

Oh, and there is also grandpa. Shangguan Ziling flashed into the space and began to prepare medicine for grandpa. Shangguan Ziling was busy in the space, and the little fat boy stayed quietly beside her and didn't disturb her.
