Chapter 623: Chapter 621

Shangguan Xuanyi left the rest of the work to Di Shaowei.

Shangguan Xuanyi returned to the villa with Xiao'er, carrying the account books and rolls, and reported his discovery to the Emperor, handing over the documents.

After fishing in the river for the entire morning without a single shrimp to show for it, the Emperor was already seething with repressed anger.

Now, seeing these books and scrolls, he was even more furious! He had finally found an outlet for his anger.

Reporting iron mine as exhausted was already a crime of deceiving the monarch.

The Emperor immediately ordered General Li and his family to be imprisoned pending later inquisition. He also sent men to arrest General Li.
