How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 171 I do you a favor, you reward me with a haunted house

After the Duke of Jin told the Emperor what Xiaogousheng had said, the Emperor thought for a moment and then said, "Let her do whatever she wants. Let's see what she can accomplish."

Duke Jin was surprised that the Emperor agreed so quickly, saying that Xiao Gou Sheng could do whatever he wanted. It seemed that the Emperor not only regarded her as the Ninth Prince's savior, but also wanted to see if she had the ability to assist the Ninth Prince. "Your subject understands. Your subject will go and talk to her right away."

"Tell her to wait a little longer. Could you put a few people around Eighteen?"

“I’m afraid that won’t work. I’ve tested that little girl, and she’s afraid that Eighteenth will think he’s the same as Nineteenth and Twentieth, and that he should have everything Nineteenth and Twentieth have, so she’s not letting Eighteenth have anything that his family can’t afford.”

The Emperor rubbed his forehead. "This little girl. By the way, were those three bald boys happy when they found out I sent them out to run errands for me?"

"Yes, they were so happy they jumped for joy. They kept asking me what they could do. Let me tell you, the three of them are much more enthusiastic than that little girl."

"Hahahaha... That little girl knows the responsibility is great, but the three of them only know that they can go out and have fun again."

Duke Jin told the emperor what he had been doing these past few days before leaving the palace.

Little Dog Sheng was a little disappointed after learning that the Emperor had agreed. She couldn't gain weight again. She missed her childhood self. "Didn't you say you'd give me five hundred elite soldiers? When will you give them to me?"

"Anytime is fine."

"Then tomorrow."

"Alright. By the way, the Emperor said he couldn't let you work for nothing. Your family doesn't own a house in the capital, right? The Emperor has bestowed the Prince An's Mansion upon your family."

"What?!" The little dog's eyes widened instantly. "I worked for the Emperor, and he rewarded me with a haunted house?!"

"Oh dear, don't get agitated. Prince An and the others didn't die there."

"I do not want!"

"Oh dear, please don't be like that. If you think the feng shui of the Prince An's Mansion is bad, you can just ask your grandmaster to change it for you."

The little dog glared at the Duke of Jin. "Easy for you to say. Does it not cost money? How much money do you have?"

The Duke of Jin touched his nose. "Well, I'll go ask the Emperor for some more silver."

"Humph!"

Soon, the Duke of Jin returned. He brought someone with him. "This is the Minister of Works. The Emperor said you can change it however you want; the Ministry of Works will provide the personnel and materials."

The puppy, Sheng: "..." No need.

The Minister of Works bowed slightly to Xiao Gousheng. "Greetings, Miss Qian."

The puppy returned the greeting with a bow. "Greetings, sir. May I ask your surname?"

"My surname is Qin."

"Please have a seat, Lord Qin."

"it is good."

After they sat down, Xiao Gou Sheng poured two cups of tea for Lord Qin and the Duke of Jin. "Thank you for your trouble, Lord Qin."

"No trouble at all, this is all within my duties. Miss Qian, how do you plan to revise it?"

"I haven't decided yet. I'll trouble you when I've thought it through."

"Very well. Then I will not disturb Miss Qian any longer."

"I'll see you off."

After seeing Lord Qin off, Xiao Gou Sheng glared at the Duke of Jin. "Why did you bring him here directly?" She couldn't refuse.

Of course, it's something you won't be able to refuse.

The Emperor said that since this little girl was afraid the Ninth Prince would covet what didn't belong to him, then he would give it to her. Giving it to this little girl would also allow the Ninth Prince to enjoy it. "I was afraid you wouldn't believe me, so I brought her here directly. The Emperor treats you well, doesn't he?"

What a load of rubbish! You've given me a haunted house!

The little dog gritted its teeth. "Hmm. Should our family go to the palace to express our gratitude?"

"The Emperor said that you should go to the palace to express your gratitude when you move into your new home."

The little dog silently snorted to himself; the dog emperor was definitely feeling guilty. "There should be a martial arts training ground in that mansion, right?"

"Have."

"Then take those five hundred elite soldiers to that mansion tomorrow."

"You mean they'll be living there from now on?"

"Yes." How many people are in her family? Living in such a big mansion is like living in a deserted village.

A smile flashed in the Duke of Jin's eyes. "Alright. I'll go make the arrangements."

"Go quickly, don't bother seeing me off."

"You silly girl, you're not happy about getting a mansion for free." "Hmph! Hurry up and go! Or I'll chase you away with a broom."

"You girl."

"I'm going to get the broom."

"Okay, okay, can't I just leave?"

"Humph!"

Master Daoyi was enjoying tea under a tree when his little dog, Sheng, suddenly ran in. "Grandmaster, help!"

Master Daoyi calmly swallowed the tea in his mouth. "Who wants to harm you?"

"emperor."

"Cough cough cough..." Has the Emperor gone mad? "How do you know the Emperor wants to harm you?"

"The Emperor bestowed the Prince An's Mansion upon our family. The Prince An's Mansion is a haunted house."

Master Daoyi immediately knew that the Emperor was subtly showing affection for his son. "You're not even afraid of a mass grave, why would you be afraid of an empty prince's mansion?"

"That's different. The mass grave isn't my family's property."

That's true. "Grandmaster will go and revise it for you."

"Thank you, Grandmaster. Grandmaster, what would I do without you?"

Master Daoyi glanced at the little dog. "You can still walk sideways without me."

The little dog didn't believe it. "How could that be? Grandmaster, come back with me. I don't feel at ease without you."

"I'm not going." In two months, he'll have to go out and work with this little girl again.

"Go ahead. I really feel uneasy when you're not around. Besides, Shiba and the others miss you a lot too."

"I'm not going." He wants to live the life of an enlightened monk.

The little dog kept pestering Master Daoyi for a long time, but he wouldn't give in.

The little dog had no choice but to go back by itself. "Grandmaster, come early tomorrow."

"understood."

That evening, after everyone had returned, Xiaogou Sheng recounted how she and Dong Laoqi had donated money, how the Emperor had asked her to do something for him, and how the Emperor had bestowed the Prince An's Mansion upon their family.

Everyone was shocked.

Eighteen: "Little niece, is the Prince An's mansion bigger than the nineteenth and twentieth families?"

"Ah."

"His Majesty is so generous. My little niece, you must serve His Majesty well."

"understood."

Qian Laifu: "That house...is nobody wanting that house?"

"Ah."

"Then...can we not take it?"

Even the little dog didn't want it. But that was the Emperor. The Emperor's face was of paramount importance. "I went to Longhua Temple to ask my grandmaster, and he said it could be fixed with some minor changes. My grandmaster will go and check it out for us tomorrow."

"Did your grandmaster really say that?"

"Ah."

"That's okay then."

Granny Tian: "Your Majesty is really bold. Aren't you afraid that you'll squander all that money?"

Zhao: "My God! I can't believe I'm living in the Prince's mansion!"

Little Dog Sheng: "That's no longer the Prince's mansion. Dad, go find a wooden board. Uncle, go get your writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone."

Qian Dahe: "Why are you looking for wooden planks?"

18: "You want to write a plaque for the door?"

The puppy nodded. "We'll hang it up tomorrow."

Eighteen: "Okay. Who do you want to write it?"

"You." This kid is not only tough, but also lucky. Besides, if nothing unexpected happens, this kid will definitely be the most successful person in their family in the future.

*Facepalm* Thank you so much for correcting my mistake, sweetheart! You worked so hard! Wishing you a wonderful day! Sending you love! (﹡o﹡)
