Chapter 699: Come, Add Twenty Pounds of Homework to Cheer Up the Crown Prince
"Two years. Do you know how I've been these past two years?"
"Fortunately, I'm not human, or sitting on the dragon throne for two years would definitely give me hemorrhoids!!!"
Qin Muye looked at the primordial dragon that had been transported over, then connected it with the national fortune, forming a new guardian deity, one that he could control.
Through this guardian deity, he continuously analyzed the national fortune of the Great Qian Empire.
"Ah, I've been sitting here for so long and haven't gotten hemorrhoids." Ji Shan, who was in an egg form, wobbled a bit and muttered softly.
"How can an egg get hemorrhoids? I at least look like a human on the surface. That's a bit too much." Qin Muye retorted.
Ji Shan's long development period still had no end in sight.
"I also have egg rights. You can't discriminate against me, or I'll give you an egg warning!" Ji Shan floated up and said firmly.
"Fine, fine, fine, an egg can get hemorrhoids, okay?" Qin Muye was speechless. This guy was really something to argue about.
At this moment, Ji Shan was also speechless. Why did he argue with his own father about this?
"Ha ha ha~" Huangfu Xing, standing nearby, laughed heartily.
"What are you laughing at? Have you finished today's homework?" Ji Shan immediately turned his attention to Huangfu Xing. He couldn't beat his father, but he could definitely beat his little brother.
Huangfu Xing's face changed, and he muttered, "I'm only two years old, and you're already giving me homework. That's inhumane."
Hearing this, Qin Muye sneered, "What, do you also want to be inhumane?"
This kid was still too young. He could argue with Ji Shan, but why drag him into it?
Before Huangfu Xing could explain, Qin Muye decisively said, "Ji Shan, add three more pounds of homework to this kid. Let him know what it means to be a filial son under the rod."
Hearing this, Huangfu Xing's face turned green. Previously, homework was given by the page, but now it was by the pound.
"Father, I still have to train my body today. There's too much homework to finish," Huangfu Xing whined with a pained expression.
"It's fine. I recently refined a divine technique for you called the Great Healing Technique. Even if you just died, as long as your body is still warm, I can bring you back. So, as long as you don't die, keep training to the death," Ji Shan sneered. This kid was disrespectful and even dared to laugh at him.
"Xing'er, don't worry. Your brother's Great Healing Technique has some flaws, but don't worry. If he can't revive you, I can. You can be completely confident in the technique," Qin Muye patted Huangfu Xing's head and said with a kind smile.
Huangfu Xing: "..."
"I'm only two years old, and some kids haven't even weaned yet!!!"
"Exactly, you're already two years old. You're no longer a little baby who needs our care every few months. Not making you do laundry, cook, or work to earn money is already a favor because our family is well-off. Otherwise, you'd not only have to do homework and practice martial arts, but also work to support us."
"Look, your big brother is an egg, and I'm a rogue. Who else can we rely on but you?"
Qin Muye's tone was so touching that if it weren't for the illogical content, it would have been deeply moving.
They had great hopes for Huangfu Xing. As their first emperor, he needed to be well-cultivated. Unlike Ji Shan, who was a genius, Huangfu Xing had to start from a young age.
To make Huangfu Xing self-sufficient earlier, they had given him many buffs, making him almost a favorite of the abyss. In any other world, he might have been a disaster.
"Can you not say such ridiculous things with such a touching tone? I'm two years old, not twenty!!!"
He felt that if he continued to mix with this father-son duo, he would eventually become like them.
That would be a disaster for the Great Qian Empire.
"Relax, you can also claim you're twenty months old. It's not much different. As long as you talk fast enough, no one will notice the time unit," Ji Shan said seriously.
"Is it a problem of the time unit? My appearance doesn't even make me look twenty years old. If I said I was five, people would still believe it," Huangfu Xing thought Ji Shan was really unreliable.
But there was nothing he could do. He realized that his big brother was really tough and had bestowed a series of bizarre talents on him, like counter-shock and rebound. If he hit him with one unit of force, he could return ten units to the enemy.
Don't ask how he knew. Back when he was practicing his skin toughening to perfection and wanted to spar with Ji Shan, he used a bit too much force, and Qin Muye had to rush to his aid. Otherwise, he would have been done for.
So, Ji Shan gained a new innate divine skill called the Great Healing Technique, specifically for when he got carried away and needed to heal himself.
As for giving it to others, neither Qin Muye nor Ji Shan needed it, so who else could they give it to?
"You make a good point, and I'm convinced. But the three pounds of homework can't be reduced. After all, a gentleman's word is as good as a horse's promise, and since I'm not a gentleman but a scoundrel, I've decided to add another three pounds, making it an even ten pounds." Qin Muye said, glancing at Ji Shan.
Ji Shan immediately understood and promptly assigned Huangfu Xing twenty pounds of homework.
"Father, Big Brother, do you think I have a problem with my eyes? You can't just say something that isn't true. You call this ten pounds? It's more like twenty pounds." Huangfu Xing was speechless. These two really had no shame and didn't hesitate to take advantage of him.
"Is that so? I didn't notice. Why are you concerned about a few pounds? Use this time to do your homework instead." Ji Shan refused to admit it.
"A man living in this world cannot remain oppressed forever. Today, I rebel!" Huangfu Xing threw his homework down, only to find Qin Muye pulling out a willow branch from under the dragon throne and handing it to Ji Shan.
"Just kidding, just kidding. I don't have a Heaven-Piercing Halberd, and I can still be a man, but the homework must be done." Huangfu Xing begrudgingly picked up the homework he had thrown and sat down to work diligently.
Although Huangfu Xing had never been hit with the willow branch, he had seen Ji Shan's skills with it. He could flatten a mountain with it. With Qin Muye's ability to revive, he was certain that if he really got hit, even Ji Shan's Great Healing Technique wouldn't save him, and he would have to be revived by Qin Muye.
He could joke around, but when the willow branch appeared, it meant there was no choice. He had to do as he was told.
"How's your subspace excavation going? When are you planning to guest-star as an evil god?" Qin Muye put the willow branch back under the dragon throne, which he had transformed into a spatial item. It contained various items, including energy drinks, a laptop, and a fusion power plant.
"Not great. The more I dig, the thicker the national fortune becomes, but I can't find its source. I suspect that if I keep digging, I might really dig it up." Ji Shan, who had been unreliable earlier, now spoke seriously.
"Does this mean that it is essentially a single entity, and it seeps out as you dig the subspace?"
"Is it possible that it's the source of the national fortune?"
Qin Muye asked, as this matter had always been handled by Ji Shan. Who else could he ask?
"There's a good chance. From this, it seems that the national fortune is not a good thing. It would be best to seal it and use martial arts for the extraordinary system," Ji Shan suggested.
At this point, Qin Muye didn't immediately respond but was thinking about the feasibility of the plan.
After all, this matter had significant implications. The entire Great Qian Empire was now a complete system of national fortune. He had used the method of national fortune to cultivate many great figures. Once they completed their studies, they would become the pillars of the Great Qian Empire, making this era the most brilliant for both scholars and warriors.
From the current perspective, the national fortune and the imperial fortune were beneficial to the Great Qian Empire, but most things have two sides. Now, Ji Shan's investigation had revealed that this system might be another major crisis.
"You continue to investigate. We'll deal with this after I handle the Snake Father." Qin Muye meant that once he had the time, he would address it. There was no way to directly remove the entire system of national fortune from the Great Qian Empire without causing catastrophic damage, akin to turning a person into a vegetable.
So, he had to be cautious.
"Alright, I understand." Over the years, Ji Shan had become more steady. Although he seemed unreliable, he never shied away from serious matters. After all, he was Qin Muye's trusted son, and while their personalities differed, he had inherited Qin Muye's way of handling things.
