C581 Lubber's Mind
Ma Shumou said, "China has such abundant financial resources, but how can they collect all of the Ji Dao Imperial Armaments? I'm afraid there might have been some who managed to escape the net. However, from what I can guess, this Emperor Armament must have been bestowed by His Majesty. That's why the aura came from within the Imperial Palace. "2
Yang Guang was so jealous that he was about to go crazy. He angrily said, "Father is so unfair. To actually treat Ninth Brother so well while treating me so badly!"
Ma Shumou replied, "Your Majesty is right to do so. Although the prince and Prince of Ning are both princes, there's only one person holding the throne. Prince of Ning is like the sun in the sky right now, so of course Your Majesty has to treat him with special treatment."
Yang Guang felt a chill in his heart as he said: "Are you saying that Father intends to make Ninth Brother the Crown Prince?"
Ma Shumou replied leisurely, "It seems very possible now. But it's not a big deal to be in the lead at the moment. If you can open the Jing and Hang Canal, I think you will change your mind based on this achievement."
Ma Shumou's words were like clear water to wash Yang Guang's heart. He then changed the topic, "You're right. If I open the Beijing Canal, I can be a head above Ninth Brother. But Liu Tie has put my sixth brother in the position of supervisor. I can't do anything too excessive!"
Ma Shumou said confidently, "Rest assured, Prince. Leave this matter to me. If Prince of Ning really wants to borrow Prince of Tang to suppress you, then I'm afraid it won't be that easy."
Yang Guang said firmly, "Ok, I will leave everything to you then. As long as you can shorten the duration, you will pay whatever it takes."
In the Heaven Fragrant Pavilion's private room, Lyu Buwei was standing in front of the window. He was shocked when he felt the towering demonic qi and the powerful momentum in the palace.
He thought to himself, "This is the aura of an Emperor Armament. His Majesty had once said that the Imperial Armament would only appear at the beginning of chaotic times. Now it was bestowed upon Prince of Ning. This is an Emperor's favor!"
At this moment, the sound of footsteps could be heard and a delicate figure walked over: "My lady Lee Shishi greets Master Lu."
Lyu Buwei turned his head and looked at Lee Shishi's devastatingly beautiful face. Even if it wasn't his first time seeing it, it was still incomparably stunning!
"Lee Shishi, do you know that this old man used to do business? I started doing business forty years ago, from nothing to wealth. Do you know what I've done that was the most successful? "
Lee Shishi shook her head at Lyu Buwei's question. "I don't know."
Lyu Buwei laughed, "Then I will buy you. Right now, to me, a mountain of gold and silver is just trash. You are the real treasure."
Lee Shishi thought quickly, "Master Lu, please speak frankly."
Lyu Buwei said, "I will not make things difficult for you. I will return your freedom and restore your citizenship so that you can do anything, such as participate in Wu Shuang Fei's elimination."
Lee Shishi raised her head abruptly and said coldly, "Master Lu, do you want me to spy on Prince of Ning? This humble girl cannot do it. "
Lyu Buwei shook his head and said, "Hahaha! "You're underestimating me, and underestimating Prince of Ning too much. This old man will not threaten you in any way, and Prince of Ning will not be disturbed by a woman."
Lee Shishi heaved a sigh of relief. "What does the lord want me to do?"
Lyu Buwei replied without hesitation, "Yes, it's a good thing."
He then looked at Lee Shishi and said, "This old man has been doing business for so many years, and I have countless treasures, but you are the only gift that I can take out, and also a gift of great weight."
