Marry the Goddess Empress

Chapter 13 Straight to the point
Beijing.

Prime Minister's House.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Move quickly, the master told you, you must dress up to be happy today!"

Throughout the government office, hundreds of family members are busy in a hurry.

All kinds of precious flowers and plants are everywhere, and festive colors are full of sight.

"Madam, all the preparations are nearing completion, and we are waiting for the master to come back."

The main hall of Cao's mansion.

A man with the appearance of a housekeeper reported to the white-haired old woman in the center.

The old woman is Cao Jingren's original wife, named Shen Qinglan.

Shen Qinglan was originally a lady from a wealthy family.

He has a tough temper and is extremely concerned about various management matters.

It was only after marrying Cao Jingren that her husband's family fell down for some reason, so she let go of her obsessions and concentrated on managing government affairs.

Although Cao Jingren later married several concubines.

But from the beginning to the end, no one can replace Shen Qinglan's position in the Cao Mansion.

"Well, I see."

Shen Qinglan nodded slowly, "Go and inform the others, and be ready to welcome the master back home at any time."

"Yes! I'll go right now."

The man replied respectfully.

Then, exit the main hall as quickly as possible.

at the same time.

Led by Xiaojizai, Xiao Zhang came to the gate of Cao's mansion.

"My father-in-law, are you from the palace?"

The guard at the gate saw Xiaojizai dressed as a eunuch, and rushed to greet him.

"Eunuch, does our master have something to bring home?"

The two couldn't wait to ask Cao Jingren for information.

Little Chick quietly glanced at Xiao Zhang.

See Xiao Zhang indicating that he can speak.

Then he nodded and said, "That's right, Prime Minister Cao does have something to say."

"Ah! Really?"

"Then father-in-law, come with me quickly, my wife is waiting in the main hall!"

The two servants were so excited that they didn't verify the identity of Xiaojizai, so they directly brought them into Cao's mansion.

"Ask, is there any great joy in the Cao Mansion?"

The moment Xiao Zhang stepped into Cao's mansion, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

All directions are covered with red silk and gold threads.

A scene of luxury, even surpassing the layout of the palace.

"Huh? Excuse me, your identity is...??"

The two servants did not answer Xiao Zhang's question, but looked at his identity first.

It seems that it is not an ordinary person who can be on duty in the Cao Mansion.

"Presumptuous! What are you guys? How dare you inquire about the identity of your lord!"

Xiao Zhang hasn't spoken yet.

But the little chick stood up first.

Little Chicken is very experienced in dealing with such things.

"The father-in-law calm down, the little one dare not!"

The two servants quickly admitted their mistake, with panicked expressions.

The chick is from the palace.

The person who was with him naturally also came from the palace.

Just now they completely treated Xiao Zhang as an ordinary official, and they almost got into trouble.

"What are you two doing?"

A gloomy voice came from the nearby courtyard.

then.

There was a man in his fifties who was dressed luxuriously and walked forward frowning.

His name is Cao Yongliang, the eldest son of Cao Jingren.

"Who are these two? Who let them in?"

Cao Yongliang arrived at the scene and directly aimed his spearhead at Xiao Zhang and Xiaojizai.

"My lord, these two are from the palace."

The servant quickly responded, "This father-in-law brought a message from the master."

"Father's message?"

Cao Yongliang looked at Xiao Jizai suspiciously, "Which father-in-law are you serving, why have I never seen you?"

"Hmph! I am Xu Haigong's disciple. Do you have any questions?"

Little Chick held his head high and said coldly.

It's just that the person who made him so stubborn was not Xu Hai, but Xiao Zhang beside him.

"Eunuch Xu's people?"

Cao Yongliang pondered for a while, and then asked: "If my father has anything to say, just tell me."

As Xu Hai is the chief eunuch of the palace, Cao Yongliang naturally knows it.

However, he is suspicious by nature, and he still can't fully trust Xiaojizai.

"Prime Minister Cao told me that these words must..."

"No ink marks, just go straight to the point."

Xiao Zhang could already predict that the two sides will inevitably go through several rounds of debate.

He couldn't wait any longer.

"Uh—yes! Your Highness!"

Little Chick was stunned.

then.

"Is Mr. Cao right? I'll just say it once, listen carefully!"

The expression on Xiaojizai's face suddenly changed, "I order you to open the treasury of the Cao Mansion immediately and hand over all the state assets that have been engulfed. Those who disobey: kill without mercy!"

"Your Highness? Are you the only useless prince left in the Golden Dragon Kingdom?"

Cao Yongliang didn't pay attention to Xiaojizai, but shifted his gaze to Xiao Zhang.

It was the first time he saw Xiao Zhang.

But these days, from his father, he has heard too much about Xiao Zhang's incompetence and uselessness.

did not expect.

Such a useless person, dare to bring someone to the prime minister's mansion to search the house?
"Hehe, trash?"

Xiao Zhang's eyes gradually closed, and the corners of his mouth raised.

Pia grumble!
Slap it out.

Cao Yongliang was slapped directly against the wall.

Countless blood spattered all over his body, and he looked like a corpse.

"..."

Shock!

fear!

incredible! !
The upper and lower teeth of the two servants chattered 'cluck' and the urine bag leaked 'shush'.

Prime Minister Cao's son, Cao's eldest son, was killed inexplicably like this?
"You two, take me to the treasury of the Cao Mansion."

Shooting Cao Yongliang to death is like crushing an ant to Xiao Zhang.

His mood didn't fluctuate at all.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!"

puff.

The legs of the two servants were limp, and they knelt down at Xiao Zhang's feet.

soon.

There were bursts of crying.

"The treasury of the Cao Mansion is only known to the madam, the young masters, and the housekeeper. We are just gatekeepers, and we really don't know anything about it."

"Your Highness, everything we said is true, and I hope Your Highness will forgive us for our disrespect!"

"stand up."

Looking down at the two servants from a high position.

Xiao Zhang said indifferently, "Take me to someone who knows where the treasure house is, so you don't have to die."

"Okay! Okay! Your Highness comes with us!"

The two got up in a panic, and staggered towards the depths of the mansion.

……

Cao Mansion, the main hall.

Shen Qinglan sat in the middle, her majestic gaze swept the audience.

"Butler Sun, why hasn't the eldest son arrived yet?"

on site.

More than 20 people gathered in the main hall.

Including Cao Jingren's six concubines, two sons and wives, as well as grandchildren.

The only outsider was Sun Liancheng, the housekeeper of the Cao Mansion.

"Madam, I have notified the Eldest Young Master before, so it must be here soon."

Sun Liancheng was sweating profusely on his forehead.

In front of Shen Qinglan, he dared not go beyond the slightest bit.

"Hmph! It's getting more and more unruly."

Shen Qinglan's eyebrows were stern, and she scolded: "As the eldest son, he was the last one to arrive. Let him be punished by halving his expenses for the next year."

"..."

In the lobby, more than 20 people listened to Shen Qinglan's reprimand, and no one dared to interrupt.

Imagine.

Normally, how much everyone is afraid of this lady.

You know, Cao Yongliang is her own son.

Punishing his own son so harshly made the others even more afraid to act presumptuously.

"You two, the middle hall of Cao's mansion is in front of you, and the housekeeper and wife are inside."

Just when the atmosphere on the scene was extremely depressed.

From outside the middle hall, an inexplicable voice sounded.

It seems that an outsider is here?
