Even the emperor's face showed a bit of displeasure.
"Girl Li, you have never managed a house, so you don't know the price of building a house. Let's ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to send someone to the Marquis of Wuwei Mansion later to conduct an on-site survey of the damage to your house, and compensate according to the survey results. "
The emperor proposed a compromise plan.
The queen was immediately relieved. The emperor had spoken. That damn girl should finally stop!
Unexpectedly, Huang Yueli still shook his head, "That's not possible! If we ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to do the test, we will only pay thirty to fifty thousand taels. How can that be done?"
"You... thirty to fifty thousand taels are not enough? Who do you think you are? How dare you open your mouth in front of the emperor?"
Huang Yueli patted her chest with a scared expression on her face, as if she was frightened by the queen's aggressive attitude.
"Queen, this is a reasonable price! Did you know? When the Seventh Princess came to the Hou Mansion, I was retreating in the study, and what was arranged in the yard was a fourth-level spirit gathering formation! This formation is They were all arranged with fourth-level materials, and they needed fourth-level spar to be driven! As a result, the Seventh Princess found a lot of Golden Feather Guards and attacked the formation desperately, not only depleting all the energy in the spar, but also , and completely destroyed the formation, making those materials unusable!"
"With so many fourth-level materials, if we take them to the auction house, we can fetch at least three million taels of gold! Not to mention, now that the formation has been destroyed, where can I find such a high-level formation master? Set up the formation for me? I’ll just charge the price of these formation materials, which is already a big loss, okay!”
"This...this...how could this happen?"
The queen was stunned by what she said, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
If what Huang Yueli said was true, then Li Xueer would have been in big trouble!
Three million taels of gold, if she had put it aside two months ago, the queen would have been able to get it, but after the prince was tricked by Huang Yueli in Qianzhen Pavilion last time, all her property was used to subsidize the prince, and she had no money for a long time. How much is left.
Now... what can she give in return
Just when the queen was anxious and didn't know how to react, suddenly, a heavy coughing sound came from behind.
Immediately afterwards, someone said: "Miss Bai San, you are really good at blackmailing money. Are you really so poor with money? I see, this is not necessarily true, is it? Didn't you just steal a large amount of money from the royal treasury a few days ago?" A treasure?"
The person who spoke was none other than the Imperial Master.
His voice was a little hoarse because that day, after the self-destruction mechanism of the royal treasury was turned on, the flame mechanism was quickly triggered. The smoke and dust generated were too great, and he kept rushing to the first place. The smoke and dust made his throat hoarse. , and it has not recovered yet.
When Huang Yueli heard his voice, a knowing smile appeared on her lips, and she slowly turned around.
She knew that the Imperial Master sitting here today was definitely not here to watch a show!
He had tricked him in the royal treasury, and he would definitely find his place back!
Moreover, if something happens to the royal treasury, the culprit must be found. It would be a big weird thing if the national master didn't come to trouble her!
In fact, the Imperial Master did think so.
There was a reason why he didn't attack Huang Yueli first.
Because he and the prince entered the royal treasury without the emperor's approval.
In fact, a few years ago, the prince had colluded with the national preceptor and another fourth-level master who was responsible for protecting the royal treasury.
