Chapter 1185
The guests who came to drink wedding wine and watch the ceremony entered Nanyue Palace one after another.

There are obviously a lot more guards in Nanyue Palace.

Most of them are from Longtang and Fengtang, and some are soldiers transferred from the barracks.

Of the ten tigers beside Old General Ouyang, except for two tigers who are recuperating from illness, the other eight tigers are in charge of security at the Nanyue Palace.

In addition to carefully checking the gifts sent by the guests, they also need to pay attention to the movements of all the guests to ensure that the villains will not mix in the guests and cause damage.

The wedding was going on in an orderly manner, from the worship hall to sending into the new house, everything went very smoothly, and no abnormalities were found.

Among the guests, no one found anything wrong, and all the gifts they sent were checked.

Just when the banquet was about to start, the palace sent the father-in-law to give gifts.

Four father-in-laws lifted four large wooden boxes from the carriage.

The guests all gathered around to watch.

The leading father-in-law took out the imperial edict.

"Gu Ming accepts the order!"

"Thank you Lord Ron!"

Except for Gu Zheng and Yue Lingzhi who did not kneel down, everyone else knelt down.

Gu Zheng is the Supreme Emperor, and Yue Lingzhi is the Supreme Empress Concubine, so they don't have to kneel when they meet the Emperor.

The content of the imperial decree firstly rewarded Gu Ming's achievements in the military camp, and then included a list of treasures bestowed by the emperor.

"One thousand taels of gold, one thousand taels of silver, one gold tea pot, two silver tea pots, two silver plates, twenty jade wares, four jade ruyi handles, and a set of enamel plates showing the auspiciousness of dragon and phoenix."

After the father-in-law finished reading the imperial decree, everyone took a deep breath. The emperor was so generous. The wedding gift given to General Gu was comparable to a royal dowry.

Someone muttered in their hearts: "Who said that the emperor is jealous of the Nanyue king and wants to attack the Nanyue palace?"

"The emperor is clearly trying to curry favor with the Nanyue Palace."

Gu Zheng and Yue Lingzhi were also surprised.

Yue Lingzhi reminded Gu Zheng in a low voice: "The weasel has no good intentions in wishing the chicken the New Year!"

"Everything in the four boxes must be checked!"

Gu Zheng nodded: "Yes."

Lingzhi told him that what she was most worried about were bombs, especially time bombs.

In the modern world, there is a horribly lethal time bomb, which is only the size of an egg, and can blow up the entire palace.

However, when the time bomb is about to explode, it will make a countdown sound.

Delivered gifts can be inspected, but incoming guests cannot be searched.

Gu Zheng could only walk among the guests, but he didn't hear any sound like a countdown.

After a while, he will lift the four boxes to the warehouse, and he must check the contents of the wooden boxes one by one.

However, the leading father-in-law directed the servants to carry the four wooden boxes into the hall.

In front of all the guests, the leading father-in-law presented the treasures bestowed by the emperor one by one.

Every time a treasure was taken out, the guests gave out a burst of admiration.

After all the objects were laid out one by one, the leading father-in-law signaled to the other two father-in-laws to open all the boxes containing gold and silver.

Gold and silver are standard gold and silver ingots. They are neatly arranged in wooden boxes, emitting bursts of golden and silver light. The visual angle is still somewhat shocking.

The guests gave out admiration again, and some even took the opportunity to flatter and say some words of the emperor's grace.

Gu Zheng approached his father-in-law calmly, but heard a subtle and unusual sound inside the box containing the silver ingots!
It was very much like the countdown sound that Ganoderma lucidum had described to him!
How to do?
In front of everyone, what should I do to pick up the silver ingots in the box and inspect them one by one?
