After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure

Chapter 470 - 470 She is indeed bold



470 She is indeed bold

Shi Qingluo did not even change her clothes and just brought Dumby into the palace.

The main reason why she was recognized as soon as she entered the capital was that Dumby was too obvious.

Shi Qingluo was the only one in the entire Daliang country who had such an imposing black goose.

It was also because Dumby was too conspicuous and easily recognizable wherever she went that many people received the news the moment Shi Qingluo entered the palace.

The emperor was the first to receive news from the northern border.

Ordinary news was delivered at the fastest speed possible, and important news was delivered by specially trained eagles.

Therefore, the emperor received the news from the northern border about five days later.

News from the other families would take at least 20 to 30 days.

Therefore, apart from the emperor, most people did not know about the potatoes.

Everyone was confused. Why did Shi Qingluo returned to the capital?

And she suddenly came into the palace with that big goose.

Did something happen to Xiao Hanzheng?

All of them were curious and kept an eye on the palace.

After entering the imperial study room, Shi Qingluo saw the emperor sitting at the grand seat and bowed.

“I’m here to pay my respects to the emperor!”

As she saluted, Dumby also made a very elegant bow.

It even called out to the emperor, as if it was paying respects to him.

“Rise!” the emperor raised his hand.

Then, he looked at the goose with curiosity and a smile.

The goose was so smart. It actually bowed to him.

Not to mention its glossy black fur, its strong figure looked especially imposing. It was really not ordinary.

Of course, the emperor was still very happy to be bowed so respectfully by the legendary goose that was said to be an immortal pet.

It really wasn’t Shi Qingluo who had taught Dumby to do this.

She was a little surprised that Dumby had such a strong desire to survive.

It was so smart that it knew how to flatter important people and learned how to bow from her.

As expected of her goose.

The emperor then turned his eyes to Shi Qingluo. “I received a letter from Xiao Hanzheng saying that you came to the capital to deliver potatoes? ”

He was actually very surprised.

He really couldn’t guess how Shi Qingluo had transported so many potatoes outside the capital by herself and then asked the porters to carry them into the capital.

Along the way, it would be reasonable to say that the spies from different parties would discover her, but they did not.

Even his spies didn’t find her.

He only received news when she appeared in the suburbs of the capital with the goose.

However, even though he was curious, he did not want to get to the bottom of it.

Now, the emperor was beginning to doubt the existence of Shi Qingluo’s old immortal master.

Either that or Xiao Hanzheng’s arrangements were too secretive and he thought of a way that no one else could think of.

He got his people to send the potatoes in batches to the suburbs of the capital to meet up with Shi Qingluo.

Otherwise, that old immortal master must be helping them.

Of course, the emperor still preferred the former.

Shi Qingluo smiled. “That’s right. After the potatoes came out, the crown prince of Prince Jin’s residence approached us. He wanted us to send the potatoes to Prince Jin’s residence in Northern City.

“After we rejected him, he didn’t look like he was going to give up.

“My husband also found out that there are spies from the previous dynasty and the Ge Kingdom in Heyang County. They are also eyeing the potatoes.

“So once we send people to escort them to the capital, they will definitely be intercepted and killed on the way.

“There is a high chance that they will not be able to safely transport them to the capital.

“My husband and I thought of a way to divert their attention. On the surface, we sent a group to escort the potatoes into the capital, while I transport the real potatoes.”

She smiled and said, “It’s a good thing I didn’t fail my mission. I’ve safely sent the potatoes to the capital.”

The emperor was already excited when he received the news about the potato, so he was relatively calm now.

“You and your wife have done well, especially when you successfully delivered the potatoes to the capital. You have given Daliang country another high-yield grain. You have made a great contribution.”

Shi Qingluo smiled humbly. “Your Majesty, you’re too kind. I’m a citizen of Daliang country. This is what I should do.”

“What kind of reward do you want this time?” the emperor asked with a smile.

He didn’t try the potato or call the agriculture minister to confirm it.

Now, he trusted Shi Qingluo more.

Moreover, his spies had sent back the entire process of how Shi Qingluo and her husband had gone to the village to find the potatoes.

All the villagers and bailiffs ate the potatoes and were full of praise, which showed that the potatoes were really good.

The reason why he mentioned the reward first was to let Shi Qingluo feel that he valued her.

Without hesitation, Shi Qingluo asked, “Your Majesty, can you grant me, the wife of an official, the position of a princess?” Just getting a nice title like a princess is good enough.

“Also, give my big goose the title of the king of geese, and give it a death-exemption gold medal.

“With this medal, it’s against the law for anyone to kill it and stew it.”

The emperor was not surprised by Shi Qingluo’s request.

However, it had to be said that she was indeed bold.

This was the first time someone had asked him for a title and even wanted the title of a princess as a reward. Who would dare to say this?

However, not only was the emperor not angry, but he also felt that this was because Shi Qingluo trusted him and was comfortable to speak to him.

She was currently looking at him with a face full of adoration, her eyes bright and sparkly, which made the emperor very pleased.

He pretended not to know about the conflict between Shi Qingluo and Liang Mingmin. “Why do you want the title of a princess and your goose to be the king of geese? ”

Shi Qingluo’s originally smiling face turned into one of grievance.

“It’s because I was bullied by Prince Jin’s daughter.

“Princess Zhen is really too much. She wanted to kill my goose just because it was so mighty.

“Of course, my goose cannot sit and wait for death. Its self-defense provoked her deeply.

“Then, she used her status to pressure me, and she wanted to kill Dumby.”

When she said this, her eyes were red. “If it wasn’t for my husband and the people’s protection, I would have been captured by Princess Zhen and taken to Northern City. My goose would have been killed by Princess Zhen.”

Dumby felt aggrieved as it listened to what she said. It didn’t want to become a stewed goose.

A pair of black and intelligent eyes suddenly looked at the emperor with watery eyes, looking aggrieved, pitiful, and helpless.

Dumby was like a child who had been bullied and had gone home to tell its parents, so it quacked at the emperor a few times.

Even if the emperor didn’t understand the goose language, he could tell how aggrieved the goose was.

For a moment, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

He couldn’t ignore their grievances.

Especially this big goose, it was too intelligent and human-like.

It even knew how to complain to the emperor.

He couldn’t bear to and liked Dumby just by looking at it.

Liang Mingmin actually dared to be so ruthless.

The emperor was naturally aware of what Liang Mingmin had done in Northern City.

He didn’t like her to begin with, and now he hated her even more.

When Shi Qingluo saw the emperor’s expression, she knew that the show she and her goose put up was right.

Then, she looked a little embarrassed and said, “At that time, I was very angry. Then, I said in front of Princess Zhen and everyone that she was using her power to oppress people. I also wanted to be a princess in the future, so I wouldn’t be afraid of her.”
