The Prodigiously Amazing Weaponsmith [Translated Novel]

Chapter 601: The Imperial Master Creates Problems

Even the Emperor's face showed some signs of unhappiness.

“Li'er, you've never run a household before so you won't know how much it costs to build a house. Later I will ask someone from the Ministry of Revenue to stop by the Brave Martial Manor to ensure the damage in your manorm and provide appropriate compensation to you.”

The emperor suggested this compromised proposal.

The Empress immediately placed her heart in the east. Since the Emperor has already spoken, this damned girl should know when to stop!

However, Huang Yueli still shook her head, “How can we do that! If the Ministry of Revenue comes and checks and only compensates three or five thousand taels, then what should I do?”

“You... Three or five thousand taels is not enough? Who do you think you are? How dare you demand an exorbitant price before the Emperor?”

Huang Yueli patted her chest showing a terrified expression, as if she was struck by the Empress's aggressive attitude.

“Your Majesty, the price I stated is fair and reasonable! Do you know about this? When the Seventh Princess came to the manor, I was cultivating with the door closed in the study room and the courtyard had been arranged with a fourth level spirit gathering array! This array was not only set using fourth level materials, it had to be pushed by fourth grade crystals before it could work! However, the Seventh Princess found a team of Gold Scaled Guards and used all their strength to attack the array. Not only did they exhaust all of the crystal energy, therefore, they had also destroyed the array completely and all of the materials were unusable!”

“If I bring that fourth level material to the auction house, at least it will be auctioned for three hundred thousand gold taels! Not forgetting now that the array is broken, where will I find a high-level array master to help me set up another array? I only asked for compensation for array materials, so I already gave a big discount, okay!”

"This... this... how did it become like this?”

The empress was stunned as sweat droplets began to form on her forehead.

If what Huang Yueli said was true, then Li Xue'er would have put herself into the hot soup this time!

Three hundred thousand taels of gold. If it had been two months ago, the Empress would have been able to handle it. 

But since the Crown Prince was tricked into the Thousand Treasures Pavilion earlier, he had taken all of his wealth to subsidize him and he did not have much more.

As the Empress was filled with anxiety, not knowing how to respond, suddenly a heavy coughing voice echoed from behind.

Immediately after, someone spoke, “Third Lady Bai, you are really good at cheating money, do you really need it? From what I see, it doesn't seem like it? Didn't you, just a few days ago, just stole a large amount of treasure from the Royal Treasury?”

The one who spoke was the Imperial Master.

His voice sounded rather hoarse because when the self-destruction mechanism in the Royal Treasury was activated, it quickly triggered the flame mechanism. The resulting fog of smoke was too much and since he was the first to break through, the ashes had bloated his throat which caused a hoarse voice and to this day, he had yet to recover.

When Huang Yueli heard her voice, the side of her lips curved into a clear smile as she slowly turned around.

He knew that the Imperial Master would definitely not sit there just to watch the show!

He had trapped him in the Royal Treasury so he would definitely take revenge!

Moreover, since the Royal Treasury had been in an accident, it was only natural that the mastermind should be dug up. If the Imperial Master did not find trouble for him, it would be the strangest event in heaven!

In fact, the Imperial Master did think this way.

He had his own reasons for not making trouble with Huang Yueli at the first moment.

The reason for that was because when he and the Crown Prince had entered the Royal Treasury, they had yet to obtain the Emperor's permission.

To be honest, a few years ago, the Crown Prince and the Imperial Master had been conspiring with another level four realm expert, who was in charge of protecting the Royal Treasury.
