The two of them were very busy, and the two of them were very busy.

In the room.

Gao Tianlong's cold voice was like a sonic boom, and Gao Yang's eyes widened instantly.

Gao Yang had never expected this.

Logically speaking, shouldn't Gao Tianlong be asking about the art of slaying dragons and the strategy of governing the country?

As a result, Gao Tianlong suspected the money in Prince Rong's mansion in his first sentence.

This is totally unreasonable.

Gao Yang's eyes changed, and he asked carefully, "Grandfather, why are you asking this for no reason?"

If Gao Tianlong was just suspicious before, then looking at the expression on Gao Yang's face and these words now, Gao Tianlong was almost 100% sure.

Greedy!

And took a lot!

Gao Tianlong looked cold and looked directly at Gao Yang, saying, "Today, you talked to His Majesty about governing the country and strengthening the country."

"But I thought about it carefully and speculated."

"I can tell that you are talking nonsense. In the words of you capitalists, you are just making empty promises."

"I was wondering why? Because you are guilty, because you are leaving yourself a way out. Combined with what happened recently, the only possibility is that you raided Prince Rong's house and took a lot."

"You are afraid that the empress will find out, so you are trying your best to show your ability."

Gao Yang had to admit that the old man was really the best.

In Gao Tianlong's eyes, his thoughts were like nothing could escape.

Seeing this, Gao Yang could only confess honestly, "Prince Rong's mansion, including silver and gold ingots, as well as various calligraphy and paintings, jade, has a total value of 1,597,803 taels."

"1,597,803 taels, so much?"

Gao Tianlong's eyes were moved, and he obviously didn't expect this number.

But then, his sharp eyes looked at Gao Yang.

"How much did you take from it?"

Gao Yang looked at Gao Tianlong's eyes, coughed twice and said, "Not much, grandson and Commander Li rounded it off."

Hearing this, Gao Tianlong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"The two of them rounded off more than 7,000 taels, which is not much. His Majesty is not an emperor who can't tolerate any sand in his eyes. Even if he knows, he will turn a blind eye."

But Gao Tianlong thought about it and felt something was wrong. Gao Yang dared to hint at Du Jiang in front of Shangguan Wan'er.

Just a few thousand taels, but the dragon-slaying technique and the strategy for governing the country all came out at the same time?

"You smeared more than 70,000 taels?"

Gao Tianlong was shocked.

Gao Yang's scalp numbed, and he slowly stretched out a finger: "Grandson smeared not 7,000 taels, nor more than 70,000 taels, but the one in front."

As soon as the words fell, Gao Tianlong's breath suddenly became disordered.

He widened his eyes, looking unbelievable.

"What?"

"You, this wicked grandson, smeared one million taels?"

Gao Tianlong almost spit out a mouthful of blood. He realized something was wrong at the time, and specially sent Gao Feng to search him. If he could find the money on his body, it would be a small problem.

If he couldn't find the money, it would be a big problem.

But he didn't expect that Gao Yang actually smeared one million taels.

"You and Commander Li in the palace, 500,000 taels each?"

Gao Tianlong paced around in the room, and finally looked at Gao Yang and asked.

Gao Yang nodded to this.

Gao Tianlong gritted his teeth and said, "I have fought all my life, but I still don't get as much as you!"

"Where is the silver?"

"Commander Li gave me a small courtyard, in the courtyard at the east end of Chang'an, and buried the silver, money and calligraphy and paintings there."

Gao Tianlong took several deep breaths and managed to calm down.

"Give me a reason, otherwise..."

Gao Tianlong didn't say the next word, but his eyes fell on the stick in the corner.

Gao Yang's mouth twitched, and he sighed, "My grandson originally wanted to just try a few thousand taels to create a weakness for the empress to be greedy for money, but my grandson never expected that the commander Li Long sent by the empress had not been greedy for many years, just for this wave."

"At that time, it was all a matter of thought. If I don't take it, cutting off someone's wealth is like killing his parents. Either my grandson will kill Commander Li, or Commander Li will kill my grandson."

"If you take it, these 500,000 taels will give my grandson, and even the entire Dingguo Mansion, an extra way out."

"But this matter is indeed a trouble."

Gao Tianlong was silent.

Everything was clear. Today's dragon-slaying skills and state governance policies are all to clean up the 500,000 taels.

But Gao Tianlong also thought of a deeper reason.

It took him a long while to say, "Are you on guard against the empress?"

This statement directly made

Gao Yang was silent.

But he nodded quickly, "Risk and profit are proportional. The soap business is under the Empress's nose. My grandson can collect part of it through means, but I can't hide it from the Empress."

"If you want to take it, the difference between tens of thousands of taels and hundreds of thousands of taels is not big. In addition, my grandson is learning from capitalists. The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish."

"Five hundred and ninety thousand silver taels, your majesty will not think too much, and there is no reason to investigate thoroughly."

"Since ancient times, the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog prospers. The three strategies I gave to my grandfather last time, the first strategy of the golden mean is too risky, so only the second strategy is to rush the Empress, and there is also the third strategy."

"It's not easy to rush the Empress, and my grandson is not very sure about this, so I can only make some preparations for the third strategy."

Gao Yang's meaning is obvious.

Gao Tianlong looked at Gao Yang for a long time, and finally said in a deep voice, "The doctrine of the mean is not a bad idea, why do we have to go to extremes?"

Gao Yang shook his head, and his face suddenly calmed down: "Grandfather, my grandson seems to have a choice, but in fact he has no choice."

"Since Prince Rong secretly planned, my grandson has revealed the edict of seeking talents, and he must show his edge, so that he can be reused by the empress. In addition to Prince Rong, a major danger will be solved."

"The Seven Kingdoms will change drastically soon, and my grandson can't escape, so he can only follow the empress's footsteps."

"But accompanying the emperor is like accompanying Tiger, the current empress is definitely not a good person. "

"My grandson was able to get rid of Prince Rong, partly because Prince Rong was arrogant and had a rebellious heart, and partly because the empress was cruel enough. She already had the characteristics of an emperor of all ages!"

"Under the original nine-turn large intestine, Prince Rong never thought that the empress would take action. Although it was my grandson who offered the plan, it doesn't matter if my grandson is not a good person, but if the emperor is not a good person, this is more terrible."

Gao Tianlong remained silent, but he had been in the court for a long time, so he didn't understand Gao Yang's meaning.

Since ancient times, how many people who used poisonous plans could have a good end?

But he couldn't let his grandson sit and wait for death, or even end up with a five-horse torn body and the whole family executed.

He wanted to take his life into his own hands!

Under this worry, he happened to meet a talent like Li Long, and took 500,000 taels of silver in a moment of thought.

Therefore, with gunpowder, and today and the words of the empress, these two strategies for strengthening the country, no matter which one, cannot be separated from Gao Yang.

This is the biggest reliance.

Especially the second one, he must rely on his grandson, but in this way, the so-called doctrine of the mean is impossible.

Gao Tianlong looked at Gao Yang with complex eyes.

Such power tactics and retreats are almost invincible, leaving himself plenty of time.

His grandson is not simple!

After Gao Yang finished speaking, he continued, "If you don't take the 500,000 taels, once the empress changes her attitude, killing your grandson will be like killing chickens and dogs."

"If you take the 500,000 taels, under the conflict of interests, Li Long and your grandson will rise and fall together. Even if the truth is revealed, with today's dragon-slaying technique, as well as the strategy of governing the country, military and agriculture, your majesty will not turn against you."

"If the empress has no intention of killing your grandson, then your grandson is a capable minister of governing the country, but if the empress wants to take advantage of the situation, she will destroy the bridge after crossing the river."

Gao Yang raised his head, paused, and then said very seriously.

"The dragon-slaying technique can be sold to the emperor's family to achieve hegemony, but it can also...slay dragons!"
