Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

"Hey!"

Xia Man'er gave a sharp shout and lifted the heavy iron box high above her head.

Followed by.

boom! ! !

With a deafening roar, the ground was smashed open, leaving a shallow crater.

The hard bluestone slab cracked inch by inch, and spiderweb-like cracks spread out instantly.

Everyone in the alley took a step back without prior arrangement.

Several battle-hardened veterans of the Mountain Shaking Army looked at each other, and they could see the lingering fear on each other's faces.

This girl... her strength is even more terrifying than that giant elephant!

They just... actually tried to lay a hand on this little girl!?

Thankfully, Lin Shuai stopped him.

Otherwise, what would be lying on the ground cracked now wouldn't be the bluestone slabs, but their skulls.

Xia Man'er on the elephant's back was completely unaware.

She dusted off her hands and, like a busy little bee, ran to the other two giant elephants.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang! Bang!"

A series of dull thuds echoed densely through the narrow alley.

In a short while, she threw all nine huge iron boxes that were neatly stacked on the back of the three giant elephants onto the ground.

The once relatively smooth alley has now become riddled with potholes and looks terrible.

After finishing all this, Xia Man'er put her hands on her hips, looked at her masterpiece with pride, and then ran to the first box.

On the box hung a massive black iron lock, larger than her fist.

Instead of looking for the key, she reached out her delicate white hand and grabbed the lock.

"Snap!"

With a crisp snap, she broke the incredibly sturdy black iron lock as easily as snapping a twisted rope.

Xia Man'er casually tossed the broken lock aside, then grabbed the lid of the box with both hands and yanked it upwards!

Buzz—

In an instant, countless rays of light burst forth from the box, so bright that people couldn't open their eyes.

Golden light, green light, red glow, purple aura... all sorts of precious lights intertwined and reflected each other, illuminating the entire alley as if it were daytime.

Inside the box was a whole box full of rare jewels.

The luminous pearl, the size of a pigeon's egg, placed at the very top, was enough to make the princes and nobles in the capital fight tooth and nail for it.

"Snap!"

"Snap!"

Xia Man'er was quick and nimble, and broke the locks on eight more boxes in succession.

Nine boxes, each containing a different treasure, were revealed to the crowd one by one.

A top-quality, uncarved jadeite rough stone the size of a watermelon.

There are ancient medicinal herbs that exude a unique fragrance and are clearly priceless.

There are various vessels made entirely of gold and inlaid with gemstones.

There was even a whole box of shiny, obviously high-quality weapons of all kinds.

The soaring, precious energy was almost solidifying.

The veterans of the Mountain-Shaking Army, including the burly man who had secretly opened the door a crack, were all dumbfounded.

They had never seen so many treasures in their entire lives!

This must have emptied the legendary Dragon King's treasure vault!

Lin Mo was also stunned.

He wasn't short of money right now, but seeing those nine large boxes of "hard currency" still made his heart race.

If we were to spend all of that money to recruit soldiers...

I dare not think about it, I really dare not think about it.

"hey-hey!"

Xia Man'er ran up to Lin Mo with a proud look on her face, like a child waiting to be praised.

"Brother Lin Mo! This is all the money I've saved up over many years! I'm giving it all to you as your dowry!"

Xia Man'er had just finished speaking.

A faint, almost inaudible sound came from the side.

"What secret stash of money...?"

Xiao Tao, the maid who had been huddled in the corner as a background figure, lowered her head and chirped softly.

"The Prince has a total of nine treasure vaults, and you, Princess, have emptied eight and a half of them... You didn't even leave the Prince the jade brick that served as a paperweight in his study..."

"If the prince found out, he'd be so angry he'd die on the spot..."

The sound was soft.

But everyone present was sharp-witted and perceptive.

Everyone's gaze instantly turned strange again.

They glanced at Xia Man'er, then all turned to look at Lin Mo.

That look in his eyes was incredibly complex.

It's like watching a world-class swindler who not only deceives people's feelings but also instigates young girls to empty their families' coffers to fund his own schemes.

Lin Mo felt a chill run down his back, and his blood pressure spiked.

He swore that this had absolutely nothing to do with him!

He is innocent!

"shut up!"

Xia Man'er's face turned bright red when her own maid exposed her.

She turned around abruptly, pointed at Xiaotao, and threatened her angrily.

"You stinky peach! If you say another word, believe me, I'll punish you... punish you by making you bathe elephants every day from now on!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tao trembled with fright, her little face turning deathly pale.

She covered her mouth tightly, shaking her head like a rattle-drum, her eyes filled with fear of this torture.

"Ugh... medicine, medicine, Miss, medicine! I'm not going to get better, am I?"

Lin Mo's temples throbbed as he looked at the outrageous master and servant duo.

Xia Man'er snorted with satisfaction, seeing that she had successfully intimidated the maid.

She then turned around again, grabbed Lin Mo's arm, and clung to him, nuzzling him affectionately with her little head.

"Brother Lin Mo, don't listen to that stinky peach's nonsense! Anyway, all these things are yours now!"

She tilted her innocent little face up, her eyes sparkling.

"Brother Lin Mo, aren't you rebelling right now?"

"I've heard my father say that war requires a lot of money—to buy food, pay the soldiers, and make lots of powerful weapons!"

She pointed to the huge iron boxes on the ground, her voice clear and full of pride.

"Hey, these are all yours! Sell them all, you'll definitely get lots and lots of money!"

"With this money, you can recruit soldiers and horses, and kick that wicked emperor off the throne!"

"Then you'll be the emperor, and I'll be... the empress... Oh! I'm going to be the empress! Hehehehehehe!"

As Xia Man'er talked, she became excited and happily nuzzled her little head against Lin Mo's chest.

The alleyway fell into a deathly silence once again.

Several veterans of the Shaking Mountain Army looked at each other, and finally their eyes all fell on Lin Mo.

Those eyes were filled with envy, admiration... and sympathy.

The coach is awesome!

He became the prospective son-in-law of a feudal lord after seducing a woman.

Now it's even more incredible; that young girl has brought the entire national treasury to join them.

This guy is really taking advantage of his girlfriend!

It's just a bit too hard; if things go wrong... I might lose my life!

Lin Mo felt like he was suffocating.

He wanted to explain.

But looking at the girl in his arms, whose face was full of happy anticipation and who had already started planning how many kittens she would raise after becoming empress, he found himself at a loss for words.

It’s over.

This is completely inexplicable.

He could almost see Miao King Xia Xiong, the man known throughout the land for his fierce protectiveness and volatile temper.

He was carrying a forty-meter-long broadsword and charging menacingly towards Zhenbei City!
