Chapter 32: External soul bone, so fragrant!
Harem.
Nangong Ling was tending to some flowers and plants she had planted when she saw Emperor Xue Ye coming towards her angrily. "Your Majesty, why do you look so bad?"
"It's all because of that rebellious son!"
Emperor Xue Ye had a gloomy expression on his face. He picked up the tea on the stone table and started drinking it, but he couldn't suppress his anger.
Rebellious son?
Hearing this, Nangong Ling immediately put down the kettle, came to the stone table and sat down, her face a little worried, "Your Majesty, could it be that Wuji is causing trouble again?"
"No! It was Qinghe. He actually changed my order without authorization and took 15 million gold coins from the treasury!"
Emperor Xue Ye's chest heaved violently, and at the end of his roar he slammed the table and stood up, scaring Nangong Ling.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Emperor Xue Ye felt like he was fuming. He had always been the one scheming against others, but he didn't expect that today he would be tricked by his son.
Damn it!
If it was someone else who tampered with the imperial edict without authorization, he would have ordered his body to be torn into pieces. That's three million gold coins!
revenge!
This is definitely revenge!
Emperor Xue Ye knew without thinking that Su Xian must be holding a grudge against him for being a rogue and not paying him, so he deliberately cheated him out of money.
Very good, you are trying to pick a fight with me, right? You have successfully aroused my interest!
"Qinghe?"
With a cry of surprise, Nangong Ling hurriedly asked, "How could he do such a thing? Besides, without your Majesty's order, he couldn't have taken out so much money from the treasury?!"
Fifteen million gold coins! !
Nangong Ling finally understood why Emperor Xue Ye was so angry, and at the same time she became more and more worried, fearing that Xue Ye would punish her severely.
"He has my will!"
Emperor Xue Ye gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words, then explained bitterly:
"That rebellious son changed the 12 million in the decree to 15 million, and took an extra 3 million from the national treasury."
Three million!!
When mentioning this number, Emperor Xue Ye felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He had been working hard to leave more foundation for the royal family.
Now, someone actually counterattacked and took away 15 million gold coins directly!
Holy shit!
This is half a year's worth of tax revenue for the empire!!
Nangong Ling was also shocked. She didn't expect Su Xian to dare to do such a thing, but...
"Your Majesty, that's 12 million gold coins. Why did you give Qinghe so much money?" Nangong Ling asked with a frown.
"Well…"
Emperor Xue Ye was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he had let the cat out of the bag. Given Nangong Ling's personality, she would definitely dig into the matter.
"He said he wanted to build some entertainment city and asked me specifically for it." Emperor Xue Ye replied with a slightly changed expression.
"Just because he said that, you gave it to him? Or more than 10 million gold coins?!"
As expected, as soon as Emperor Xue Ye finished speaking, Nangong Ling's fatal question immediately appeared.
Emperor Xue Ye:...
You think I want to give it to him, but I have to give it to him. That guy is threatening me nakedly!
Woohoo~ I am so frustrated as an emperor!
Although he was angry, Emperor Xue Ye still did not lose his mind. He did not intend to tell Nangong Ling about Su Xian's return to the afterlife.
At least we can't tell you now, otherwise if the news about the soul guide cannon is leaked, the empire's loss will be irreparable!
"Alas~ I saw that he is not young anymore, so I thought of letting him do something on his own, so that the ministers can be convinced!"
His expression eased a lot, and Emperor Xue Ye sighed quietly, perfectly interpreting the look of a man who cares about his son.
Life is indeed like a play, and it all depends on your acting skills!
"So that's how it is."
Nangong Ling nodded slightly. However, the money had already been paid, so the three million wouldn't be a big deal!
"I think Qinghe must have felt that the money was not enough, so he changed the order without authorization. Since he has taken it all, you should give it to him."
Nangong Ling already had her own guesses in her heart. Her gaze towards Emperor Xue Ye also changed, with a hint of contempt flashing in her eyes. She said,
"Twelve million is also a gift, fifteen million is also a gift, and three million more is not too much."
Hearing this, Emperor Xue Ye almost vomited blood.
What do you mean three million more is not a lot? This is just three million!
He is provoking me as his father!
Now you dare to change my order without permission. From now on you will shit and piss on my head.
Originally, he was thinking of asking Nangong Ling to get the money back, but now Emperor Xue Ye has completely given up. It turns out that mothers always side with their sons!
Woohoo… It's so hard for him to be a father!
…
Prince's Palace.
Qian Renxue went into the room to practice. The leisurely days without his wife around suddenly became boring for Su Xian.
"Forget it, I'll go practice too, alas..."
Shaking his head, Su Xian returned to his bedroom feeling somewhat bored.
[Readers:....
Damn!
You said you wouldn't practice, if you have the guts, you really won't practice!
The protagonist's mouth is really a lie, I despise you! ]
In the bedroom.
"Alas, during my wife's retreat, I can only pass the time by absorbing soul bones!"
With a faint sigh, Su Xian leaned against the head of the bed, looked at the three boxes on the bed, and began to think.
In the box on the right is a pair of miniature white wings.
Su Xian's first feeling was that his Zhuge fan had been found.
In the middle box was a pair of claws, the sharp blades emitting a cold glow. Even through the box, the overbearing and extreme power was chilling enough to make one feel cold.
Hmm~ This thing is very convenient for eating walnuts!
As for the one on the left, it is an eye, which looks very weird. Su Xian feels very scared.
"It turns out that expensive things have a reason."
Looking at these three things, Su Xian took a deep breath, and a fiery look flashed in his eyes. He spent 50,000, 10,000, and 100,000 gold coins to buy them respectively.
Calculated this way, the value of each one is over 100 million gold coins!
That's right!
The three things in front of you are all external soul bones!
Given his current condition, it is quite difficult to absorb the wings and eyes.
Although soul bone absorption does not depend on the soul power level, if you are lucky, you can absorb a hundred thousand year soul bone with level one soul power, but that only happens in the most ideal environment.
The improvement in all attributes brought by the hundred thousand year soul bone is enormous. Coupled with the terrifying energy contained in it, it is very likely to tear him apart directly.
However, the two thousand years of dark gold claws in the middle can be tried, and then used as a medium to try other external soul bones.
But before that, for the sake of safety, he still needs a soul ring!
After putting away the wings and eyes, Su Xian then took out a crystal box the size of a pen holder from the storage ring.
Inside the crystal box, a small black bird seemed to be asleep, with silver array patterns wrapped around its body, which was obviously the result of being sealed by someone.
"Iron Juice, if you don't say anything, it means you agree that I want to kill you."
Su Xian muttered to himself. Seeing that the birds really had no reaction, he thought that they had lost hope in this world.
Therefore, Su Xian, upholding the fine tradition of doing good deeds without leaving a name, sent it to the west.
Oh~ No need to thank me, this is what I should do!
Hmm~ Two thousand year soul ring, here I come!!
