Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm-Chapter 415 - : Losing the Treasure is a Major Mistake

Chapter 415: Chapter 415: Losing the Treasure is a Major Mistake

Yang Ye gathered his thoughts and continued reading.

By the time he finished reading the thick ledger, his throat was already hoarse.

As the ledger closed, a maid immediately served a cup of chilled, sweet and sour plum soup.

The sour plum soup, which had been iced all along, was just perfect for this moment.

He didn’t ask for a cup, but started drinking in big gulps directly from the exquisite teapot.

The sour plum soup went down, taking away both the heat and his annoyance.

Good heavens, this ledger was essentially a record of Daqi’s calamities. It was so depressing to read!

Yang Wenxiao opened his eyes and glanced at everyone, his gaze finally settling on Yang Wang, “Wang, tell me, what would have happened to my and your father’s throne these years without the Tong Family’s silent disaster relief?”

Yang Wang was taken aback, his mind spinning quickly. He immediately responded, “Grandpa Emperor, you and father are wise and martial. What the Tong Family has done is merely icing on the cake. Even without their disaster relief, our Yang Family’s reign over Mount Jiang would still be firm.”

Hearing this, Yang Wenxiao raised an eyebrow, “This is not icing on the cake, but sending charcoal in snowy weather. What would have happened if those disaster-stricken people had not been properly relocated? Have you forgotten how our Yang Family won this world?”

Yang Wang clenched his teeth.

He hadn’t forgotten.

He also understood what Yang Wenxiao meant at this moment.

Even though the Tong Family lost the treasure, their actions over the years had contributed significantly.

However, he was not willing to admit this.

Compared to the entire treasure, thirty million taels of silver was insignificant. Anyone with a brain could make out the difference.

Well, forget it.

Putting aside the grudges with the Tong Family for the time being, pleasing Grand Emperor was the priority.

If he wanted to squeeze out the crown prince, he had to gain the approval of the Grand Emperor.

And there was Cen Hong. Cen Hong was his trusted lieutenant, but due to his momentary negligence, he had been demoted from the rank of a grand general to a minor county magistrate of Huai’an County.

He had to get promoted again!

Clenching his teeth, he echoed, “Grandpa Emperor makes sense, the Tong Family does contribute to Daqi.”

Yang Wenxiao grunted in affirmation, “However, even though they have contributed, the loss of the treasure is a major error.”

TongTiehu,

The treasure was theirs, it was theirs!

What kind of mistake was it to lose their own things?

Even he didn’t care about it!

The Grand Emperor was clearly oppressing them with royal power!

Seeing his thoughts, Yang Wenxiao raised an eyebrow and said, “Your mother said that the treasure was taken from the people, so it should be used for the people. Although your Gu Family seized this treasure, in the end, it belongs to the broad masses of the people.”

“But now, the treasure is gone and can’t be used for the people.”

“Gu Sheng, don’t you think this is a fault?”

“Also, Xiaomai once said that this treasure was confiscated from the people by the former emperor whose state had collapsed. It is stained with the blood of the people and is thus ominous. Now that such a large amount of ominous things have disappeared, what if God takes away the favorable weather from Bailu Town? What then?”

TongTiehu,

Although it seemingly made some sense, if they wanted to accuse him, they could always find an excuse!

Clenching his teeth, he responded, “If the Gu Family is at fault, please punish us, Grand Emperor.”

“Punishment is inevitable. However, the more important thing now is to see if there is any chance of retrieving the treasure. If it can be found, the punishment can be lessened,” Yang Wenxiao added.

Upon hearing this, Yang Wang was overjoyed, “Grandpa Emperor, the treasure is likely still in Anping Village. As long as we dig up Anping Village, we will find the treasure!”
