Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 1299 Where the money goes

"Madam, I can't take this money. You'd better get out of the car. I'll return all the money I got to you. My whole family is still in Shangjing City."

After saying that the coachman was really paying for it, Jia really didn't intend to leave when she saw his attitude. She couldn't think too much, she picked up the hem of her skirt and ran towards the city gate.

The guards guarding the city acted as if they had not seen this. The results of their inspection showed that there was no problem, so this person could be released from the city. As for the people behind her who wanted to arrest her, it had nothing to do with them.

As long as they don't make trouble at the city gate, they will turn a blind eye. This is also the purpose of being sent here today.

Although they didn't say it above, they could probably guess by now that it was probably just for this moment. The servants chasing after them all had a big word "Deng" on them, so they must be the servants of the Deng family.

These days, the affairs of the Deng family have been spreading in Shangjing. They all know it. In addition, they were personally ordered by Mr. Song, so the meaning is self-evident.

Although the servants of the Deng Mansion only had the skills of a three-legged cat, this did not prevent them from being agile and quickly caught up with Jia who abandoned the car and fled.

The two servants didn't care so much, they just put her hands behind her back and twisted her towards the housekeeper.

It would be effortless for them to catch such a woman.

"Butler, we've caught him."

What the housekeeper was afraid of was that this bitch would run out of the city. Then they would have a lot of trouble finding someone. Fortunately, they were lucky and intercepted the person before leaving the city.

But he was really tired.

Seeing Jia being caught, the housekeeper smiled sarcastically, "Aunt Jia, what are you doing?"

Whether it was the sound of "auntie" or the words that followed, it was so harsh in Jia's ears.

He has already held her in his hands like this and said such words.

"Butler, there's no need for this, let's go!"

She naturally knew that it was not his intention for the housekeeper to come here to catch her, so naturally the problem could not be solved here now, and she still had to go back to see the rightful owner.

Just a little bit, just a little bit! ! !

She can leave...

After all, the housekeeper still had to worry about the Deng family's face. When they went back, they didn't send him back like this. They still found a carriage. After all, it was quite far away from the Deng family.

The air pressure in the Deng family was so low that it was difficult to breathe. Almost everyone was waiting for Jia to come back. The other concubines now regarded Jia as their life-saving straw.

It's not that Jia has any abilities, at least if Jia makes a mistake first, the master will treat them lightly.

Arriving at the gate of Deng's Mansion, Jia was pulled out of the carriage arrogantly. She was a delicate person at first, but now she was in a state of embarrassment. She was somewhat broken before she arrived, but now...

By the time she got here, her legs were already weak.

Because she knows what she will face after entering!
As soon as she entered the front yard, she saw that the yard was full of people. Master Deng was sitting in the most conspicuous position with a black face, and there were people kneeling around him.

Jia was pushed hard and knelt down in front of Lord Deng. She looked up in panic and saw the murderous look in his eyes that almost killed her.

"Old, sir..."

Master Deng looked at her coldly, "You decide for yourself or I'll ask!"

Mr. Jia is not stupid after all. He knows what the current situation is, and he may still be able to plead for mercy.

She doesn't want to die.

"I said, I said."

Jia took a deep breath and suppressed her fear. "I pawned some things privately in the warehouse and exchanged them for some silver."

While Jia was talking, her mind was working rapidly, thinking of the best way to say it for herself.

"No news about the master has come out in the palace. I am worried that something will happen. I want to use some money to find out some news about the master..."

Regardless of whether Mr. Deng believed it or not, Jia had to say this, otherwise she would really have no chance.

This is indeed the case. Master Deng's expression showed no signs of improving when she said this.

He snorted coldly, "You should tell me what kind of connections you have to find out the news in the palace!"

No one else in the Deng family could do anything about it. Could it be that she, a concubine, had the ability to reach heaven?
If this is the case, does he still need to suffer this crime?
"Replying to the master, I have a cousin who has been in the palace since he was a child... I thought he might be able to help me find out more, but I didn't want his family to ask for 1000 taels. I didn't dare to touch the money on the books, so... He did something wrong."

After speaking, Jia quickly kowtowed, "Master, you must believe me, I have not betrayed you!"

Yes, their actions now are betrayal to Mr. Deng. If they had done this when he was still in the house, Mr. Deng might not be so angry, but they chose to do it when he was in trouble.

Mr. Deng didn’t believe what Jia was saying now.

"I think you are simply greedy!"

Don't you dare touch the money in your account?

Simply ridiculous!

"There's only one thing missing from the warehouse? Are you sure there's nothing else missing?"

"No! I guarantee nothing else has been touched!"

During the previous handover, she knew that there was still cash in the warehouse, but those things were counted. If she moved others, they would be able to tell, but those things in the warehouse were not necessarily visible.

There are so many things and a few missing things that cannot be seen at once.

"Not honest!"

How could Mr. Deng believe what she said, so he kicked Mr. Jia out.

Jia was kicked right in the heart, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

But she still struggled to get up, "Master, I really didn't! You have to believe me!"

Master Deng stared at her, "Come here! Take out the accounts from the warehouse!"

Today he specially sent someone to check the warehouse, and there was a shortage of nearly ten thousand taels of silver!
Naturally, she took out so much money little by little while she was being detained in the palace.

"You go out every day these days. What do you do? Where are you hiding the money you took out!"

Mr. Deng was too lazy to let anyone search her body. No one would be stupid enough to take out the money and deposit it in a bank and exchange it for banknotes. The only possibility was that there was someone outside to help!

But Jia really never did any of these things.

"Master, I really don't, really..."

She took out all the silver notes she had on her body, "These are all pawned silver. They are all here. If I take one or two silver coins, I will die without a burial place!"

These words are not taken lightly. Master Deng doesn't think she dares to play tricks on him at this time.

But the money is indeed low, and only she and the housekeeper can enter and leave the warehouse freely!
