âCrown Prince Consort, the shrine is willing to offer one-tenth of the rights to mine spirit stone from Chess Mountain for the Holy Daughterâs life.â The principal guardian Wen Quan was at his witsâ end and hastily took out his trump card.
As expected, these words caused the officials in the audience hall to start whispering to each other.
That was the right to extract one-tenth of Chess Mountainâs spirit stone mines. It could bring a lot of benefit to the imperial court every year.
...
With so many spirit stones, it was enough to replenish the spirit stone supply of a 10,000-strong elite battalion.
One of the officials standing behind the Vassal King of Jianping promptly elbowed the latter in the waist.
However, the Vassal King of Jianpingâs face had darkened, and he did not want to speak.
Didnât he suffer enough at the young coupleâs hands already?
Whoever spoke would be out of luck!
It wasnât like he was an idiot. Why should he jump out and be that bird that stuck its head out?
The Kang Prince was standing beside the Vassal King of Jianping. When he saw the latterâs prideful expression that said âIâm holding it in, Iâm holding it in, Iâm holding it in with all my might,â he secretly twitched his mouth. He thought: /His youngest brotherâs IQ has skyrocketed! He actually didnât jump out to criticize the crown prince consort for todayâs incident. It was evident that he had started to use his brain!/
Regardless of the Kang Princeâs roasting, the Vassal King of Jianping stood there composedly and watched the show without budging.
Youâve got to be joking, right? Dissing the Crown Prince Consort?! He still freakinâ owed debt to the Crown Prince Consort! Wasnât dissing her right now asking to get dissed back? Moreover, he would definitely be forced to pay back his debt in advance.
Humph! He wasnât going to say it. Whoever wanted to fight for this tenth of the spirit stone mine for the imperial court could f*cking do it themselves!
The official behind the Vassal King of Jianping was a bit anxious. He cast a sidelong glance at the imperial censors behind him. When he saw that they were all keeping their heads and eyes down, obviously not going to speak, he couldnât help but be stifled.
What was going on with these censors who usually ended up jumping up and down to berate people?
Recently, they were so well-behaved that it was practically puzzling.
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao turned to look at the crown prince, but the latter shook his head at her and said, âWhatever you want.â
Evidently, to Crown Prince Mo, that one-tenth of the extracting rights to the spirit stone mine did not amount to a single hair on his wifeâs head.
All the officials silently glanced at His Highness the Crown Prince.
His Highnessâs doting attitude toward his wife was going to reach the heavens!
The Minister of the Left, Sir Chen Zhaozhi, was over 50 years old and had a strong and muscular body. Seeing that no one dared to come out and speak, he stepped out from the group and bowed toward the emperor. âYour Majesty, this official believes that the shrineâs conditions can be considered.â
The emperor waved his hand. âLet the crown prince handle this matter himself.â
Hence, everybody simultaneously shut their mouths.
The emperorâs words clearly showed his protectiveness.
This meant that the crown prince and his wife would have full authority over the shrineâs matters.
It was the crown prince and his wifeâs decision whether they accepted this compensation or not.
Chen Zhaozhi knitted his brows and turned to cup his hands toward Crown Prince Mo. âYour Highness, for us, the right to extract one-tenth of the spirit stone mine on Chess MountainâŚâ
âHalf.â Qiao Mu suddenly interrupted Chen Zhaozhi, her crisp voice ringing in the audience hall.
âYou also have to give us two spots for the Lunisolar secret realm,â the Crown Prince added quietly.
Qiao Mu turned to glance at the Crown Prince.
Even though she didnât know what the Lunisolar secret realm was, Hubby must have said it for a reason.
The principal guardian of the Lunisolar Shrine was so livid that his entire body shook from anger. Even the tips of his fingers were trembling uncontrollably!
He was infuriated by the coupleâs demands.
The appetite of a lionâthis was definitely the appetite of a lion!
