The prince wants to practice cultivation and needs a lot of resources, so he has long been eyeing the royal treasury and has been making money from the treasury.
Even the huge amount of money he owed in Qianzhen Pavilion could only be fully paid off by stealing part of it from the treasury.
The Imperial Preceptor was worried that the emperor would discover the plot between him and the prince if he carefully investigated the cause and effect, so he did not dare to speak directly about the treasure trove.
Therefore, when he came this time, he originally planned to make the queen angry first, use Li Xueer's injury to force Huang Yueli to confess, and then, he would take advantage of the situation to tell the story about the royal treasury.
In this way, since the emperor was already furious because of Li Xue'er's matter and decided that Huang Yueli was not a good person, it is very likely that he would not think carefully about the details of the royal treasury, but instead In anger, he directly punished Huang Yueli!
The Imperial Master's abacus was pretty good, but he didn't expect that things would develop so poorly.
First, Huang Yueli successfully blocked the queen's mouth, making her worry about Li Xueer's reputation and not dare to tell the truth about the matter, thus reversing the situation. Not only did she clear her name, but she also used Li Xueer's power to bully others. Her evil deeds were exposed in front of everyone, but she herself... became the most innocent and bullied poor person in the world.
Furthermore, Huang Yueli also showed her second-level cultivation, which made the emperor have to look at her with admiration and did not dare to convict her casually.
As a result, the national division's plan could not proceed at all.
It seems that if this continues, Huang Yueli will really get away with it, and the queen will have to pay a huge sum of money.
The Imperial Master could no longer remain silent and could only rush to speak.
"Bai Ruoli, even if the seventh princess was injured, you did not do it yourself! What about what happened in the royal treasury a few days ago? How do you explain it?"
Huang Yueli looked confused and said: "Master Imperial Master, I don't understand what you are saying. Why are two of them saying some incomprehensible words to slander me? What happened to the Royal Treasure House? Follow me. What does it matter?"
"Stop pretending!" The Imperial Master sneered, "A few days ago, you and the black-clothed guard beside you broke into the royal treasury and tried to steal the treasures in the treasure pavilion. As a result, I found you. Since we can’t escape, we simply looted all the treasures in the treasure pavilion and collapsed the entire royal treasury!”
"Now, because of you, the spiritual stones and magic cores in the treasure house have been buried underground. I don't know how much effort it will take to get them out! Our treasury is completely empty! And the culprit of all this is you - Bai Ruoli!"
The Imperial Master had a solemn face and a very stern tone. As he spoke, he covered his chest and looked so excited that even the beard on his face was sticking up.
After hearing this, the emperor shook his hand and smashed the tea cup to the ground.
"What? Imperial Master, you said... the destruction of the Royal Treasure House was done by Li Yatou? How is this possible? How could she go to the Royal Treasure House to steal? How could she destroy the Royal Treasure House?"
The Imperial Master sighed with a heavy look on his face.
"Your Majesty, a few days ago, after the treasure house was buried, you asked me several times to know what happened, but I never said anything. That's all because this matter is so unbelievable, if not Even if I saw it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t believe that this daring little thief is actually Bai Ruoli!”
