"This Third Prince is really outrageous. I personally came to see him but he didn't even come out to receive me. I really don't know how that dead Empress Yi raised her son."
In the back garden, Empress Rong frowned slightly and her elegant face flashed with displeasure as she scoffed.
But the Third Prince's residence was really rich!
Look at the rocks, they were actually made from stones from the depths of the North Sea. The herbs in the flower beds were actually the extremely precious Scarlet Flame Grass. Even the bamboo in the bamboo forest could not be bought without tens of millions of gold and silver.
It seemed that the Yi family was not as simple as they appeared to be. They must have given the Third Prince an incalculable amount of gold and silver over the years. Otherwise, he would not have the ability to build such a luxurious residence …
Greed flashed across Empress Rong's eyes as she stared fixedly at the treasures that could rival a nation's wealth.
What she did not know was that the moment her greed was exposed, Ye Ling had already noticed it …
"Hehe."
A cold laugh sounded as if it came from the horizon, causing Empress Rong to hurriedly retract the greed in her eyes. She turned to look at the youth who had just stepped out of the study, her beautiful eyes filled with murderous intent.
This damned brat, he's so lucky! I've already sent so many assassins but none of them managed to kill him! Unfortunately, no matter how lucky he was, he would still end up like his short-lived mother. Sooner or later, he would die in the Yellow Springs.
"Ye Ling, I've come to see you this time because I have a few matters to discuss with you." Empress Rong stared coldly at Ye Ling, the greed in her eyes exploding once again. "I and His Majesty have owed you far too much over the years. To make up for our guilt, I've decided to have you exchange residences with Luo 'er. Luo' er's residence is in the bustling city, much better than this remote place of yours."
She said it was a discussion but it was actually a forceful order.
How could Ye Ling not sense Empress Rong's true intentions? The cold smile on his lips deepened as he replied indifferently, "Apologies, I prefer a quiet place. I appreciate Your Majesty's good intentions."
"Ye Ling!" Empress Rong's expression darkened. "You really don't know what's good for you! I'm doing this to make up for what I owe you. Luo 'er's residence is much better than this shabby place of yours! "
The meaning behind her words was that she did all this for the sake of Ye Ling, but it just so happened that this stinking brat Ye Ling didn't appreciate it!
"Hehe," Ye Ling chuckled again and said mockingly, "If you want me to exchange my mansion with Ye Luo, it's not impossible. Everything in my mansion, even a blade of grass or a tree, I'll take it all!"
Empress Rong's expression changed completely. "Since this is an exchange of manors, then everything in the two manors will be included. I'm afraid it's very unreasonable for you to take these things away."
Ye Ling smiled. His smile contained a bone-chilling coldness. His slightly raised eyes held a touch of arrogance. "Empress Rong, what difference is there between your actions and a bandit's? Aren't you just eyeing the treasures in my mansion and planning to rob them openly? Why do you have to make it sound so nice? "
"How dare you!"
Empress Rong shouted angrily. Her cold and elegant face flashed with viciousness, "You are a prince, and also a subject of the Flowing Gold Kingdom. Do you think that I, the Empress, do not have this little bit of authority? I'm warning you, everything in the Flowing Gold Kingdom belongs to the imperial court. The same goes for the treasures in your mansion! Since these belong to the imperial family, why can't I make the decision? "
