Devouring Chaos

Chapter 110: Flame Emperor Complains

"Oh?"

Yan Huang looked surprised!

"You can form a cabinet and ask them to help you review memorials, examine the country, and solve people's problems!"

After hearing this, Emperor Yan felt as if something had suddenly dawned on him!

"Your idea is good, I can try it later!"

"Chen Geng from Changyuan City sent a memorial! He said that you have mastered the technology of digging wells and purifying fine salt. Is this true?"

"Your Majesty, these are just some of my humble skills, not worthy of being put on the stage!"

Looking at Guan Xiaobai's modest look, Emperor Yan chuckled and said,

"Your skill is not insignificant, but it solves the drinking water problem for some people who live far away from water veins. And your fine salt is even more useful!"

"It's no exaggeration to say that this is an unprecedented act. Have you thought about the reward you want?"

"I have not thought about any reward for now, as long as it can benefit mankind!"

"Okay, your awareness is rare. How about this? There is an unused manor in the city, and I will give it to you! Otherwise, people will say that I have failed to reward you for your merits!"

"Your Majesty is the only one who can decide!"

Guan Xiaobai didn't refuse anymore. If you don't take the benefit, you are an idiot!

"Okay, go down. I will have to introduce you to the ministers in the court tomorrow!"

"Haha, it's rare for Yan Country to produce such a talent!"

Emperor Yan laughed!

Guan Xiaobai then left the Reading Pavilion!

A maid had been waiting outside for a long time. She saw Guan Xiaobai and led him back!

It was his first time entering the palace, and without anyone to lead the way, he really couldn’t go back!

Soon after he returned to his residence, an imperial decree came to him! The eunuch handed him a land deed!

"Master Guan, I hope you can say a few good words for me in front of His Majesty in the future!"

"That is!"

Guan Xiaobai bowed and sent the eunuch away!

Guan Xiaobai then called Lao Yan and ordered everyone to move out. After all, living in the palace was not comfortable and they felt at all uneasy!

Guan Xiaobai was about to leave, and Yan Meili did not try to stop him!

After taking a short rest, everyone followed Guan Xiaobai out of the palace!

Taking the deed and following the instructions on it, I found this manor in the north of the city!

The manor looks quite big, but there is no plaque or anything. It should be a royal property!

After Guan Xiaobai knocked on the door and presented the land deed, the smaller old man checked the deed and respectfully welcomed everyone in!

"Master Guan, I'm the old man who's in charge of this manor! If there's anything you're not familiar with, you can just come and ask me!"

"Ok, thank you!"

"Please help us arrange accommodation first!"

Then the old man led everyone to the back hall, where there were rows of houses. There were so many houses that they could all accommodate them!

This manor seems to be quite large, Guan Xiaobai sighs that Emperor Yan is really generous!

If you want to buy this manor, you can't get it without hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!

Guan Xiaobai found a good location and lived in a single room! There were all kinds of supporting living facilities in it! And it was very clean, and you could tell someone cleaned it every day!

It was just right, I didn't need to tidy up anymore, I just lay down! Soon I fell into a deep sleep!

When he was sleeping soundly, Lu Yuewen woke him up! Guan Xiaobai opened his eyes and saw that it was dawn!

"Xiaobai, the emperor has summoned you and me to court, and the eunuchs are waiting outside the door!"

"Uh, Guan Xiaobai woke up instantly! He almost overslept!"

It didn't take long for him to put on his clothes and look! He and Lu Yuewen went to the palace together!

At this moment, the palace gate opened and people in brand new official uniforms were walking in!

Seeing Guan Xiaobai's figure, and his father-in-law leading the way beside him! He couldn't help but stop his gaze for a while! His eyes rolled, and I don't know what he was thinking!

"Eunuch Li, who are these two?"

An elderly man stopped the way and asked!

"It's the military commander, I don't know, I'm just following his orders!"

Eunuch Li has a cold attitude!

"Oh, so that's it. Take care, Eunuch Li!"

Lord Ma didn't find out any useful information, so he handed it over in a week!

"Humph……"

Eunuch Li snorted and continued walking forward!

Seeing Eunuch Li walking away, many officials cursed in a low voice,

"You stinking hermaphrodite...what are you so proud of?"

Guan Xiaobai didn’t care about such a little episode!

Not long after, Guan Xiaobai and the other person were led into the morning court hall!

At this moment, court officials were also standing on both sides!

Soon no one came in and the morning court began!

Emperor Yan entered the hall in his splendid attire! After he sat on the throne! At the prompt of Eunuch Li's duck-like voice! Everyone began to kneel down and worship, shouting "Long live the emperor!" The momentum was quite spectacular! Guan Xiaobai also knelt down!

"Everyone is safe!"

The majestic voice of Emperor Yan sounded!

"Something's going to happen!"

Then each official raised his or her own difficulties in the court!

Guan Xiaobai was not interested and his mind was wandering!

Guan Xiaobai finally came to his senses when he felt someone pushing his arm!

"The Emperor of Flame has called your name and asked you to come forward and answer!"

Lu Yuewen reminded!

Seeing Guan Xiaobai's dazed look, the court officials' first impression of him dropped significantly, and they were filled with disgust!

"Guan Xiaobai, why don't you step out?"

A majestic voice sounded!

"Your Majesty, I am here!"

Then Guan Xiaobai quickly took a step forward, turned around, raised his head and chest, and looked straight ahead!

"After the court session, you will follow the military commander and sort out all the relevant techniques for well digging and hand them over to the military commander!"

"Okay, Your Majesty!"

After hearing this, Emperor Yan nodded with satisfaction!

Then he looked around and chuckled,

"Today we have a special friend here, please let her come on stage now!"

All the court officials were surprised after hearing this. In all these years, they had never seen Emperor Yan smile!

"Please welcome Lu Yuewen!"

Then everyone followed Yan Huang's line of sight and looked at Lu Yuewen who was standing next to Guan Xiaobai!

"How is this going?"

Lu Yuewen was shocked and at a loss!

He stood up in a trance, not knowing what to say!

It seems that she has never been to the imperial city, nor has she seen Emperor Yan!

"Well, don't be surprised, it's not easy for Yue Wen to return to the Imperial City this time!"

The young courtiers didn't understand what was going on!

When the elderly court officials saw Lu Yuewen's fair and clear face, they seemed to have seen that expression somewhere before!

After thinking for a long time, the old man Sima, the military commander, looked shocked, as if he had thought of something!

"Is this the daughter of your Majesty's sister?"

Old man Ma exclaimed!

Following Old Man Ma's words, all the older generation of court officials who knew the truth reacted instantly and looked at Lu Yuewen with complicated expressions!

When Lu Yuewen heard this, she was instantly shocked!

She and her father were not small merchants in Changyuan City! How could she have such a high status?

As far as she could remember, her father had never said anything like this, but her mother had always been a mystery. Whenever she asked about it, Lu Jun would be vague and avoid the question!
