The two thick wooden doors were shut, locked with an iron lock.

Master Wan Fang explained with a smile:

"It was originally a small room, but it was abandoned for many years and locked with a lock."

Master Wang Tao's eyes flickered, and Murong Ci took a look at him and immediately turned away her glance.

Actually she also had spotted that heavy wooden door before, and felt that it was a bit strange, but she didn't ask, because she knew that there wouldn't be any proper answer after asking.

Murong Yu accepted Master Wan Fang's explanation and turned back,

"Right, I want to go to the accountant to check it out."

"Prince Regent, there was a fire in the Account Room two days ago and it almost burned everything. We moved all the stuff there and all the files and account books have not been sorted and filed yet.

It is a mess so it's better to come back three days later to check.

This Official must arrange all the files and account books for the Prince Regent to review."

"It's okay, this King will still have a look at will."

Murong Yu suddenly strode out.

Murong Ci had no choice but to follow in a stride, faintly excited to be able to visit the accountant today, sure that she would definitely be able to gain something.

'Since Master Wan Fang wouldn't let us go to the Account Room, that means that the Account Room must have many hidden secrets that shouldn't be seen by us.'

Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao's complexion were heavy, and they trotted in a cold sweat.

'If he sees the Account Room, will the Royal King see what he shouldn't see?'

As they were about to enter the Account Room, they saw the two attendants of the Account Room that were recording and accounting books.

When the two saw the Royal King and His Highness coming, they quickly got up and saluted.

They also saw Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao winking vigorously at them, and they quickly realized what the Masters wanted, and said:

"Prince Regent, Your Royal Highness, the files and account books of the accountant are a bit messy.

These humble Officials should clean them up as soon as possible.

The Prince Regent and Your Royal Highness might as well go to the Main Hall and relax drinking tea!

We'll deliver the files and account b—"

"No need."

Before he had finished his sentence, Murong Yu stepped forward and bumped into half of the body of the attendant of the Account Room, in a very powerful and frightening way.

He seemed to be hit by steel, grinning in pain.

Murong Ci snickered, and then walked into the Account Room.

The Account Room was spacious.

There were a lot of files in two large wooden cabinets.

Three long tables were piled up like hills of account books.

Although they were a bit messy, they were still in order.

'It's not that messy as they claimed.'

Master Wan Fang's eyes flashed, and he said diligently:

"Prince Regent, what account book of which year do you want to look at first?

This Official shall find it out for you."

"Prince Regent, there are so many files and account books, and it's really hard to find one in particular.

If the Prince wants to find a certain book of a certain year, it will be faster if we look it up for you based on the year you require."

Master Wang Tao smiled.

"Master Wan, Master Wang, why do the two of you seem a little flustered?"

Murong Ci joked.

"Your Royal Highness and the Prince Regent personally came all the way from the Palace, so naturally, these Officials must do their utmost to satisfy their requests!

How can this Official not panic at the idea of failing to do their work?

This Official is also afraid of any omissions in the Military Supervisor Facility and to be blamed for any mistakes..."

Master Wan Fang said bitterly.

"As long as you don't do bad things, you won't need to be afraid of ghosts knocking at your door!

This Prince and the Prince Regent are just looking around at will."

She smiled.

Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao repeatedly said yes.

She winked at Murong Yu, and then said,

"Master Wan, how many weapons are built every day?

Where is the records of the weapons used?

Who extracts the materials of each weapon?

Will they all be recorded?"

Master Wang Tao replied:

"That is natural.

Every if a single knife was lost, it must be recorded in the account book.

If it wasn't recorded, this Official would have to pay for the consequences!

So how could I afford to do such a mistake!"

Murong Ci smiled brightly,

"You two have shown your loyalty to your duties and managed the Military Supervisor Facility in an orderly manner.

After returning to the Palace, I should report to the Emperor father truthfully.

Maybe the Emperor Father will be happy, and the two of you will be rewarded."

"This humble Official rejoices for Your Highness's good words.

This is naturally the duty of this humble Official, and I dare not ask for any merits."

Master Wang Tao immediately showed his loyalty.
