Meanwhile, the Emperor also ordered someone to count the items in his private collection and the long-sealed private collection of Zhenmin, which only ever received items and never gave them out.
He didn't concern himself with his own collection, only asking others to count the items. He, himself, personally went to Zhenmin's private collection.
Yu An was by the Emperor's side, holding account books in his hand, "Your Majesty, since Princess Zhenmin left Capital City of Daliang seventeen years ago, her property has gained at least a hundred thousand taels every year. According to my calculations, there are a total of two million two hundred thousand taels of gold and silver these seventeen years. As for other valuable items besides gold and silver, quite a few are added each year. They are all in this account book. I have also kept a detailed record of what is added each year."
