Hearing the words '42 Chapters of the Classics', Wei Xiaobao was a little excited. These scriptures were related to the Qing Dynasty's Dragon Vein and the endless treasure, and that treasure was something he coveted. Of course, the most important thing was that the scripture could save his life now.
"Little Gui Zi." The little Emperor suddenly shouted.
"Uh, yes!" A cry woke Wei Xiaobao up. He quickly responded and bowed to the little Emperor.
"Follow Suo Etu," the little Emperor said,"and come back as soon as you get the scriptures."”
“嗻。”
Wei Xiaobao's eyes darted around as he sighed at his good luck.
But Suo Ertu fell into deep thought. It was just two Buddhist scriptures, it was not a big deal, why would he send a eunuch?
"Oh, the Emperor wants to give him some benefits. He's clearly asking him to get the Buddhist scriptures, but in fact, he's asking him to monitor himself. It seems that this little eunuch is the real envoy of the Oboi family, and I'm just a mere foil.”Soertu was a cunning old man, and in his wild imagination, he had actually taken a little eunuch as his master.
"Sir Suo, what advice do you have?”Wei Xiaobao walked up to Suo Ertu and cupped his hands.
"This advice?" Soertu's eyes widened." Aiyoyo, I don't dare to give you advice. I do remind you from time to time. We can talk about it later. Let's go, let's go, let's go!"
Having been politely invited to Oboi's house by Soertu, Wei Xiaobao had enjoyed his official life. The high officials treated him like a lord. It was funny to think about it.
Ao Bai was really rich. His mansion was huge, and there were piles of gold, silver, and jewelry in his house.
Wei Xiaobao was dazzled by the sight. He had never seen so much gold, silver, and jewelry before. It was the first time he had seen so many boxes of jewelry in front of him that he almost fainted.
As the two of them went in to check the numbers, an official suddenly came out and greeted Suo Ertu and Wei Xiaobao."Milords, a treasure trove has been discovered in Oboi's bedroom. I dare not open it without permission, so I'd like to ask you to check it out.”
"Is there a treasure vault?" asked Soertu happily. There must be something strange." "Have you found those two scriptures?"”
"There isn't a single book in the room," the official replied."There are only a few dozen account books. We are searching carefully."
Soetu looked at Wei Xiaobao and smiled."The things the Empress Dowager wants are inside. Let's go and take a look.”
Wei Xiaobao nodded and followed Suo Ertu into Oboi's bedroom.
The ground was covered with tiger skin and leopard skin, and the walls were hung with bows, arrows, swords, and swords. It did not lose the rough nature of Manchurian warriors. The treasure vault was a large hole dug underground. The top was covered with an iron plate, and the iron plate was covered with a tiger skin. At this time, the tiger skin and iron plate had been removed. Two guards were guarding the cave."Bring them out to take a look."
Two guards jumped down the hole and handed over the items hidden in the hole. The two scribes caught it and carefully placed it on a leopard skin beside them.
"The best treasures of Oboi must be hidden in this cave," laughed Soertu. Eunuch Gui, you can choose your favorite things here. I guarantee that it won't be wrong."
"You're welcome," said Wei Xiaobao with a smile.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly cried out. A guard handed over a large white jade box. There were five big words engraved on the box. It was the 42 chapters of the scripture.
"Quick, quick, quick! Give me this! It must be what the Empress Dowager wants!"”
The guard handed it over to him. He opened the jade box and found a book inside. It was made of yellow silk and edged with red silk.
There were two jade boxes, each containing a sutra."It really is the ? 42 Chapters Scripture ?.”
"Eunuch Gui," said Soetu happily,"if the Empress Dowager likes us, she will reward us handsomely."”
Following that, the guards brought out a few treasures from the ground, all of which were treasures.
Wei Xiaobao crouched down and picked up a thin vest. It was light, cold, and smooth, like the tender skin of a beautiful woman. He was delighted and said,"It seems to be made of silk."
Seeing how much Wei Xiaobao liked it, Suo Ertu smiled and said,"If Eunuch Gui likes it, feel free to take it.”
"Can I?"
"Of course you can." "It's just a small toy," laughed Soertu."It's not a big deal.”
Delighted, Wei Xiaobao picked up a black dagger from the ground. He felt a chill run down his spine. He gave it a try. This fellow could cut hair with a single blow, and cut iron like mud. He would not let such a treasure go.
After taking out all the treasures from the ground, the two of them went to the front hall. A guard came to them with an account book. Soertu took it and looked at it. He sighed endlessly, as if his mother had died.
"Eunuch Gui," Soetu said,"this is the record of Oboi's fortune. Oboi sure knows how to collect. His fortune is several times more than I thought!" 2,390,000 taels!"
"Oh, 2,390,000 taels." Wei Xiaobao continued to play with the dagger in his hand, but he immediately reacted and stared at the account book in shock."What is it? Two hundred and thirty-nine. Ten thousand?"
Soertu nodded.
Wei Xiaobao's heart was beating so fast it felt like it was going to explode. He really wanted to ask if there was that much money in the entire treasury. Ao Bai was so rich that he could rival a country.
"Little eunuch, how much do you think we should report?”Soetu asked.
"Ah!" Wei Xiaobao wiped the non-existent saliva from the corner of his mouth and stammered,"I don't know anything about that. It's better for Sir Suo to decide for himself.”
"2,390,000 taels. Well, let's keep the number at the back. Then, let's do a magic trick and turn this two into one. We'll add two into five. What do you think?”Soertu laughed.
"Oh, hehe, that's good, that's good, haha"
Wei Xiaobao was so happy that he wanted to kiss the old man on the cheek. This trick really made him clap his hands in admiration.
However, was such blatant corruption okay?
However, thinking that this old man had asked him to do so, it meant that it was feasible. Otherwise, this old man would not have colluded with him. After all, officialdom was just for everyone to earn money. If he didn't want it, he might even get in the way of other people's money and cause trouble!
Seeing Wei Xiaobao agree, Sooetu was delighted. He was happy to have earned five hundred thousand taels of silver for nothing. He thought to himself that this little eunuch was quite nice.
Just as the two of them were enjoying themselves, a surge of Spirit Qi rushed towards them. Wei Xiaobao could clearly feel the blood seed in his dantian tremble. A surprised expression appeared on his face. He turned around and saw a huge box being transported out.
