How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 39 Is it possible? I am a living person.

The next day, the supervising censor couldn't help but rub his forehead after reading the memorials submitted by his subordinate censors.

Should he praise the censors under his command for always keeping the emperor's face and safety in mind? Or should he praise the person who gave those three outsiders advice for his skill in achieving great results with minimal effort?
At least 30% of the documents he had were about that shop.

He knew about that shop before. Before, everyone talked about it privately, and he didn't need to pay attention. Now, that person had brought it into the open with a signboard. It would be unreasonable for him to ignore it.

Didn't you see that all the censors under his command have mobilized?
On the third day, the censor impeached the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Justice, and the Imperial Observatory.

Minister of Revenue: I never expected that he would be impeached because of a middleman.

Minister of Justice: I never expected that he would be impeached because of a three-cent shop.

Director of the Imperial Observatory: Thankfully, it wasn't just him who was impeached. Whew…

Your Majesty: That kid named Gousheng is quite interesting.

The Emperor looked at the three unfortunate men who had been impeached. "They've already pointed out the problems, do you need me to tell you what to do next?"

The three unlucky guys quickly admitted their mistake and said they knew what to do next.
"Then let's get to work. While we're at it, find that kid named Gousheng and the person who gave them the idea; I want to meet them."

"Yes."

After the court session, the three unlucky men seized an opportunity to ambush the censor in his carriage.

Minister of Revenue: "Why do you bring everything to the morning court session?"

The Minister of Justice said, "The victim didn't report it to the authorities. Why would I bother investigating a shop? No murder happened at that shop."

Director of the Imperial Observatory: "Calm down, calm down, we're all colleagues."

The censor calmly straightened his clothes. "Are you trying to get me to impeach you again?"

Minister of Revenue and Minister of Justice: I really want to beat this old bastard up.

The Director of the Imperial Observatory said, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. The three of us just wanted to ask you if you know the expert who gave them the advice?" Everything else is easy to handle, but it's troublesome to cause trouble for someone.

"do not know."

The Minister of Justice gritted his teeth. "Then why are you still so eager?"

"It's all over the capital. If I pretend to be deaf and dumb, I should go home and hold my grandson."

Lady Li was stunned for a long time after learning that the Emperor had ordered two ministers and the head of the Imperial Observatory to investigate the three-cash shop. "That shop name really has that much power? That middleman surnamed Zheng is going to be in trouble."

Imperial Censor Li glanced at her sideways. "That's not bad luck, that's called 'those who do many evil deeds will surely perish'."

On the other side, after Xiaogou Sheng and the others settled down in the mass grave, Dong Laoqi grabbed Xiaogou Sheng and made her learn kung fu from him.

Little Dog Sheng thought it would be good to learn some kung fu, so she agreed. However, Little Dog Sheng did not expect that Old Master Dong's goal was to teach her to become a martial arts master.

Little Dog Sheng regretted it. But then he remembered that in his past life, he had to die together with that spy because of his low combat skills, so Little Dog Sheng stopped regretting it.

Qian Laifu was heartbroken to see his granddaughter had lost even more weight. However, thinking about what they had to do, he could only suppress his distress and try to find ways to make sure his granddaughter had plenty of good food.

While Xiaogou Sheng was practicing his kung fu, Dong Laoqi suddenly said, "Someone's coming. Go back to your doghouse."

"Okay!" The little dog quickly returned to her little bed.

Dong Laoqi also returned to his hiding place.

Qian Laifu went to buy eggs for his dog, Sheng.

A moment later, the little dog heard an excited voice shout, "Hey! There aren't any stray dogs. I don't have to fight with them anymore, and I don't have to go through all the trouble of carrying them back."

Little Dog: What does this mean? Does this person have some kind of insane hobby?
Old Dong looked at the newcomer and felt relieved. The man was about fifty years old and had never practiced martial arts.

The man excitedly ran into the mass grave. "This one was beaten to death. Looks like his spleen is ruptured; we'll cut him open and take a look. This one died of illness; looks like his stomach is damaged; we'll cut him open and take a look. This one…"

The man thoroughly searched the mass grave for corpses. Afterward, he began working. Once finished, he untied a gourd from his waist. Washing his hands with the water from the gourd, he said, "What a great haul today. I wish it could be like this every time. No, I need to check if anything's been missed. It's so good that those wild dogs aren't around."

After saying that, the person started searching again.

The people who came searched for a long time but couldn't find Xiaogou Sheng and Dong Laoqi.

Just when Little Dog Sheng thought the visitor was about to give up, Little Dog Sheng suddenly farted...

Xiaogou Sheng: "..." Since this person dares to come to the mass grave, he must not be afraid of ghosts.

Dong Laoqi aimed the arrow at the person's forehead.

The person quickly ran towards the direction of the little dog. "Still talking nonsense even when dead, I need to think about this carefully."

A moment later, the man dug the little dog, Sheng, out of her kennel. "I told you there was a leak. Child, don't be afraid. Grandpa will see how you died. After Grandpa has seen it, I'll find you a good burial site. After burying you, I'll burn a few mountains of gold for you."

The puppy, Sheng, said with his eyes closed, "Thank you, Grandpa. You're so kind."

"It's nothing. Grandpa came to see what happened to you..." Before he could finish, the person realized what was going on. And then...

Then I fainted.

Little Dog Sheng: "..." No way? You dare to come to a mass grave to study corpses and you're afraid of ghosts?

Old Dong crawled out of his hiding place. "Eat less in the future."

The puppy touched its nose. "I'll be more careful next time, I'll be more careful next time."

"Hmph!" Old Dong pointed at the person on the ground. "What do we do now?"

The little dog thought that someone so devoted to medicine must have good medical skills. "He's not coming for us, let's not make things difficult for him, let's wake him up."

Old Dong pinched the person's philtrum, and the person slowly woke up.

The little dog smiled at him when it saw that he was awake.

then……

Then he fainted again.

Little Dog Sheng: "..." How dare you come to the mass grave with such a cowardly attitude?

Old Dong pinched the person's philtrum again, and the person woke up. After waking up and seeing the little dog, he fainted again.

Even the little dog was speechless.

The little dog patted his face and said, "Hey, wake up, I'm not a ghost. Hey, wake up, I'm not a ghost..."

The little dog had to repeat "come here" five times before it finally woke up. "I know you're not a ghost. I often go to mass graves and have never encountered a ghost."

"Then why are you still dizzy?"

The man looked at the little dog with a sullen face and said, "I'm not afraid of ghosts, but I'm afraid of demons." He should have realized when he found there wasn't a single stray dog ​​that there was something even more terrifying than stray dogs here.

Little Dog Sheng: "..." How do I look like a demon?
The little dog looked at the newcomer with a friendly expression and said, "Is it possible? I am a living person."

Upon hearing this, the newcomer said, "Impossible. What living person would sleep in a mass grave? Besides, you're so young. You must be a monster. Do you want to eat me? Go ahead and eat me. I've lived for over eighty years, that's enough."

The little dog was a bit surprised. She thought the other person was at most fifty, but she didn't expect him to be over eighty.

Seeing that he still wouldn't believe him, Little Dog Sheng pointed at Old Man Dong and said, "This is my servant in the human world. His martial arts have been crippled. If you can heal him, I won't eat you. If you can't..."

The puppy flashed its little tiger teeth at him.
