Chapter 55 The Stunning Queen
dong dong dong...

There was a knock on the private room's door.

The two were so frightened that they quickly separated, and Xia Wei quickly sat back in her chair.

"Come in!"

Xia Wei said loudly.

An old housekeeper and two maids walked in slowly.

"Miss, this is Mr. Lu's auction proceeds, totaling 1000 to 37 million taels. Excluding the 5.00% auction fee, the total is..."

The steward reported the results of the auction.

It was a bit surprising to Lu Hao that so much money was sold at auction for the gold and silver jewelry that was raised in the early stage and later found in the corruption case.

However, the emperor asked him to keep the gold, silver and jewelry from the corruption case as private money.

This part contains approximately more than 400 million taels of silver.

As for the remaining 700 million taels of silver, they must be handed over truthfully.

Because it was sent to Jianghuai County for disaster relief.

Two maids presented the bank notes from the Imperial Central Bank.

After getting the banknote, Lu Hao stood up and left.

The two of them acted as if nothing had happened, as if everything was businesslike.

Xia Wei saw him off in person and said goodbye reluctantly.

……

Back at the palace, Lu Hao went directly to Qianyuan Palace to see Murong Yuan.

"Your Majesty, this fundraiser has raised a total of 980 taels of silver for disaster relief."

Lu Hao reported loudly.

"Hahaha... Xiao Liuzi, I asked you to raise 500 million taels of silver, but I didn't expect that you actually completed twice as much. Let's do this, collect 1000 million taels of silver and send it to Jianghuai County."

Murong Yuan was in a good mood.

"It is my honor to be able to share the Emperor's worries!"

Lu Hao responded.

"Xiao Liuzi, you have made meritorious service this time. I don't even know how to reward you?"

Murong Yuan said with a smile.

"Reporting to your Majesty, I want to give this reward to Ruyan Rushuang..."

Lu Hao told the story about the two sisters going to the treasure house today to pick out the secret sword.

"These two sisters will protect you. The higher your martial arts skills, the safer you will be. You are my lucky general, but nothing can happen to you. Aren't you just two sets of secret books and two swords? I'm sure!"

Murong Yuan readily agreed.

"Slave thank you Lord Ron!"

Lu Hao quickly kowtowed in thanks.

Next, Lu Hao told about today's conflict with Prince Rui and the visit of the Prime Minister.

"Master Jiang thinks that Prince Rui is backing him, so he is so arrogant. If you hold the Emperor's Sword, if I come in person, kill him! I won't blame you!"

"Besides, the Ministry of Internal Affairs must also be rectified. If we don't kill the chickens to scare the monkeys, those guys will not stop."

Murong Yuan understood him very well.

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty. This is Prince Rui's confession."

Lu Hao handed over the confession.

"You won't take it? Aren't you afraid that he will retaliate against you?"

Murong Yuan asked with a smile.

"Slave, don't be afraid. This confession is safe with the Emperor."

Lu Hao responded.

"Okay, I will keep this confession for you."

Murong Yuan readily accepted it.

Lu Hao didn't say that Yu Qian asked him to clarify what happened last night.

It just means that Yu Qian said that what happened last night should be investigated by the Guards.

Murong Yuan was such a smart man, he immediately understood the meaning behind Yu Qian.

The two began to discuss the list of officials who needed to fill the vacancies.

Murong Yuan arranged for half of his confidants to enter the two departments.

As for the list given by Concubine Yi, some arrangements were also made to intensify the conflict between Concubine Yi and Marquis Zhongyong and the Prime Minister.

When the time comes, when the two gangs fight, the emperor will be able to easily control them.

"Your Majesty, the Queen is here!"

Eunuch Hai was outside the door and shouted loudly.What?The queen is here?

Murong Yuan had not been to Kunning Palace since his last quarrel with the Queen. Unexpectedly, the Queen actually came to visit him.

If the queen wants to spend the night in Qianyuan Palace, it will be troublesome.

"Xiao Liuzi, you stay here and take care of me."

Murong Yuan gave him a look.

It means that if he really can't escape, let him take action to deal with the queen.

After all, the queen's father, "wise and handsome" Chen Lin, is really terrifying.

Chen Yuhuan moved lightly, wearing a rose-scented bra as thin as a cicada's wings, a emerald-green floral soft smoke skirt around her waist, and a floor-length embroidered golden phoenix robe.

The bun is piled with green clouds, the rings are ringing, and the gauze is gathered together. The waist is as thin as a willow, the shoulders are as if cut, the smile is beautiful, and the beautiful eyes are looking forward to it.

As graceful as a startling giant, graceful as a wandering dragon, just like a fairy who does not eat the world.

What a stunning queen!
"Chen and concubine see the emperor!"

Chen Yuhuan bowed slowly.

"The queen doesn't need to be too polite!"

Murong Yuan raised his big hand slightly.

"I'm here to apologize to the emperor. The emperor is busy with government affairs and has many things to deal with every day. I can't share the emperor's worries. I'm also petty and acting like a young lady. I hope the emperor won't be as knowledgeable as I am."

Chen Yuhuan stepped forward slowly and saluted again.

"Why is the queen guilty? I was in a bad mood that day! It has nothing to do with you."

Murong Yuan comforted.

"I have learned from this painful experience and want to stay in Qianyuan Palace tonight to serve the emperor and make up for my sins."

Chen Yuhuan hit the point.

"That's not necessary. I still have memorials to review. The Queen should go back."

Murong Yuan immediately refused.

"Your Majesty, are you still unwilling to forgive me?"

Chen Yuhuan's eyes were blurry with tears, so touching.

"I have forgiven you a long time ago, you should go back."

Murong Yuan refused again.

"Your Majesty, I know that you have not forgiven me... Wuwuwu..."

Chen Yuhuan covered her face and cried.

One cry, two troubles, three hangs.

Sure enough, a good method!
Murong Yuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood, so he could only reluctantly agree.

When fine wine and delicacies were served, Chen Yuhuan changed her usual eldest lady temperament and served her with gentleness and consideration.

Murong Yuan gave Eunuch Hai and Lu Hao a look.

After the two entered, they immediately started putting on makeup and put on human skin masks.

After a while, Murong Yuan took the opportunity to leave and enter the secret room to rest.

Lu Hao appeared wearing a mask, exactly like Murong Yuan.

"Your Majesty, are you tired? I, my concubine... will wait for you to go to bed!"

Chen Yuhuan's voice came.

"Queen, I will have another drink with you!"

Lu Hao walked over slowly and hugged Chen Yuhuan with one arm.

Holding a beautiful woman up close, soft and innocent in your arms, the feeling is completely different.

Ever since Chen Yuhuan turned her into a woman last time, in fact, she has been quite resistant to Murong Yuan.

However, she came only after her father sent a message outside the palace asking her to serve the emperor.

The wide phoenix robe fell off and the gauze slipped away, appearing in front of Lu Hao's eyes.

An inexplicable impulse.

Lu Hao directly hugged the slightly drunk Chen Yuhuan to the bed and jumped on him without any scruples.

"Um...ah...the emperor..."

Chen Yuhuan shouted softly.

She didn't think she loved the emperor that much, but the man who conquered her still gave her a strange feeling.

A strong man's breath penetrated her nose, making her feel weak.

"Uh-huh...ah..."

Chen Yuhuan kept humming.
