How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 117: You sit at home and the pot comes from the sky

When the puppy was left, only Granny Tian was idle; everyone else was busy.

Grandma Tian was happy to see her granddaughter back, but why did the granddaughter have such a sullen face? Also, "Why didn't your great-aunt come back with you?" During this period, Dong Laoqi and Xiao Gousheng had been going in and out together.

The puppy pouted. "Where's Nineteen? I'm going to beat Nineteen up."

Why beat up the nineteenth child for no reason?

The little dog, Sheng, recounted the story of Dong Laoqi.

Granny Tian was both reluctant to part with him and happy for Dong Laoqi. "Alright, alright, don't be upset. Didn't you say that it would be more meaningful for Laoqi to follow the Emperor?"

“Then I’ll beat up Nineteen too. His grandpa’s a big mouth.”

“Nineteen is not only the grandson of the Duke of Jin, but also your nephew.”

"Humph!"

"Alright, alright, Grandma will steam some egg custard for you."

"I want to eat steamed egg custard, and I also want to beat up Nineteen."

"Good good."

After finishing the steamed egg custard, the little dog Sheng snuggled in Granny Tian's arms for a while before going to find his grandfather, Doctor Chang, and Master Daoyi.

Three old men were fishing by the river when a little dog named Sheng, wearing a straw hat and carrying a small fish basket, came walking from the village. "Hello, grandpas! Did you catch any fish?"

Master Daoyi: "I wasn't fishing, I was reciting the Rebirth Mantra."

Doctor Chang: "I caught two."

Qian Laifu: "Why are you back? Where's Lao Qi?"

The little dog pouted. "The Emperor has taken him away, so don't tell anyone else." All three of them were tight-lipped. "The Emperor probably wants Uncle Dong to do something secret for him."

Qian Laifu shared the same thought as Granny Tian: "Your Uncle Dong has so many abilities, he should go and do something great."

Doctor Chang didn't care.

Master Daoyi looked at the little dog Sheng and said with a smile, "Then your Beauty Tavern will have to be renamed?"

"I won't change." The little dog puffed out its chest. "I'm a beauty too."

Master Daoyi: "You have a really thick skin."

Doctor Chang: "You are Little Blackie."

Qian Laifu: "Let's change the name."

The little dog, with its hands on its hips, glared at the three grandfathers and said, "You guys are so mean, I'm not going to be close to you anymore."

Master Daoyi: "A monk does not lie."

Doctor Chang: "You are a beauty."

Qian Laifu: "Hey! It looks like a fish has taken the bait?"

Little Dog Sheng: "..." It turns out that only Grandpa Chang changed his tune. "Grandpa Chang, you're the best."

Doctor Chang: I'm afraid you won't come with me to the mass grave.

At noon, when the puppy saw Nineteen, it cupped Nineteen's chubby face and started rubbing it.

Nineteen struggled and protested. "Little niece, you can't touch my face, I'm your elder."

Just knead it, huh!

The puppy rubbed it a couple more times before letting go.

Nineteen immediately went to Eighteen to complain.

Just as Shiba was about to go find his little niece to visit Granny Tian, ​​she raised her hand to slap him.

Eighteen: "..." A couple of rubs won't hurt. "Hey? My little niece hasn't seen you for days and misses you."

Is that right?

Nineteen thought for a moment, and realized that his little niece seemed to have gritted her teeth when she rubbed his face earlier.

Well, since my eighteenth brother said so, I won't hold it against my little niece.

Eighteen secretly glanced at Granny Tian.

Granny Tian withdrew her hand.

Eighteen touched his little bottom.

Ugh!
His father and his master were both so disappointing.

Originally, Xiaogou Sheng's tavern was supposed to open in another two weeks.

Now... I wonder if Uncle Dong will be able to see the Emperor? And if he does, I wonder if the Emperor will reward him with a beautiful woman?

The Emperor was quite attentive to his personal guards.

As soon as Dong Laoqi arrived, the commander of the secret guards led him to see the emperor.

The Emperor raised an eyebrow when he saw Dong Laoqi's appearance. Luckily, he wasn't into that sort of thing, or he would have cut off his own sleeve too. "When you left, did Gousheng try to stop you? I heard you and Gousheng are quite close."

Now, Gou Sheng has also registered with the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, no. Gousheng said that it would be more meaningful for me to follow Your Majesty."

The Emperor was delighted to hear this. "I heard that you two are thinking of opening a tavern?"

"Yes."

"I've heard that your tavern is called the Beauty Tavern?"

"Yes. Gousheng said that what is vulgar is also elegant."

"Hahaha... She certainly knows how to make excuses for herself. What else did she say?"

She also said she wanted you to compensate her with a beautiful woman.

"Hahahaha... I have no beauty to give her. I can give her a genius so she can sit at home and count her silver."

That little girl who named the tavern like that probably doesn't know how to do business. That little girl was willing to risk being intercepted and killed by Doctor Chang and Old Man Dong to treat the Duke of Jin's injuries; I can't let her suffer a loss.

Dong Laoqi was very pleased to hear this. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Hmm. I've heard you've had dealings with Prince Xuan. What kind of person do you think he is?"

Dong Laoqi hadn't expected the Emperor to bring up Prince Xuan. "Your Majesty, are you worried that I might seek revenge on Prince Xuan? Rest assured, I've long since let it go. If I wanted revenge, I would have done it two years ago."

"I know. I just want to ask you, what kind of person do you think Prince Xuan is? Tell the truth."

"Yes. I believe that King Xuan is a person of questionable character."

Misconduct?

The Emperor touched the armrest. "I understand. You may leave."

"Yes."

After Dong Laoqi left, the Emperor looked at the commander of the secret guards and said, "Do you think someone of questionable character can command such a large following?"

"No. You mean the Northern Di King's confession and the evidence his subordinates found are all fake?"

The Emperor nodded. "Has the matter of the Duke of Jin's eldest daughter-in-law been investigated thoroughly?"

"No."

The Emperor touched the armrest again. "Continue the investigation. I refuse to believe that it cannot be resolved."

"Yes."

"I will have the Imperial Guards surround Prince Xuan's residence in a moment. Send someone to keep an eye on Prince Xuan and make sure he doesn't 'commit suicide out of fear of punishment'."

"Yes, I will arrange it right away."

After the commander of the secret guards left, the emperor summoned Zhou Ziyan, who was the commander of the Imperial Guards.

King Xuan was enjoying a tender moment with his newlywed son when the steward suddenly rushed in, looking flustered.

Just as Prince Xuan was about to curse, the steward said with a pale face, "Your Highness, Lord Zhou has surrounded our mansion with the Imperial Guards. Lord Zhou says that you are colluding with the Northern Di."

"What?!" King Xuan could hardly believe his ears. "I colluded with the Northern Di?"

"Yes. Lord Zhou said that the King of the Northern Di has confessed."

King Xuan: "..." He had no grudge against the King of the Northern Di, so why was the King of the Northern Di framing him? "I want to see the Emperor. I am innocent."

The steward also felt that his master was innocent, as his master's mind was focused on pleasing his young mistress and young master. "Lord Zhou said that he not only has the confession of the Northern Di King, but also the confession of Li Hongwen."

Li Hongwen was a staff member of King Xuan.

Now, King Xuan panicked. "Why would Li Hongwen want to harm me? What have I done to wrong him?"

The steward didn't know either. "Your Highness, what do we do now?"

Prince Xuan didn't know what to do either. "I must see the Emperor. The Emperor will surely believe me. I must see the Emperor. The Emperor will surely believe me..."

King Xuan muttered to himself as he walked out.

The steward quickly followed. If the Emperor believed his prince, he wouldn't have ordered the Imperial Guards to surround them. "Your Highness, you can't just talk the talk; you need evidence."

"Evidence? Bring out all the young men and women in the backyard. I'm with them every day, they can testify for me."
