Unscrupulous Concubine Evil Lord

"Young master, this is the grain transaction account book of Lizhou City. The chief there said that a new batch of seeds has been introduced from overseas. It may not be possible to recover the cost in the past two years, but the profit will definitely be several times higher than it is now in three years. ..."

"Young Master, this is the general ledger of the shops in Suiyang City, please see if there is any omission..."

"Little Lord……"

……

Jin Yuanbao raised his head from several stacks of ledgers taller than a person, and glanced at the shopkeepers present, his eyes were so indifferent that no one could see any joy.

However, the big shopkeepers who were caught by that gaze trembled in their hearts, and immediately lowered their heads.

Jin Yuanbao threw the ledger in his hand on the table, leaned back in his chair, and said slowly, "You guys always decide on these matters, why did you send them all to me today?"

One of the shopkeepers stepped forward, cupped his hands and said: "Return to the young master, because the young master has not come back for a year, I am afraid that the young master will not understand the current situation."

Jin Yuanbao's eyebrows twitched slightly, and then he waved at everyone: "Go back first, I'll see for myself, and I'll come to you if I have any questions."

Those shopkeepers all had hesitant expressions on their faces, but when they saw Jin Yuanbao's unsmiling face, they immediately lowered their heads and said "yes", and then gradually retreated.

Jin Yuanbao turned his head to Ying and said, "Call Ying Er Ying San and the others to come here."

Ying Yi's figure flashed, and after a while, there were several more people in the room.

The shadows saluted Jin Yuanbao in unison: "Young Master!"

Jin Yuanbao waved at them, and asked, "Did they go to the City Lord's Mansion on the first day of the lunar new year?"

Ying Er nodded: "Not long after the young master came, they went out. The people who followed were afraid of being discovered by Miss Xia and the others. They watched them go to the direction of the city master's mansion, so they immediately came back to report."

After hearing this, Jin Yuanbao smiled helplessly: "This little girl, she won't let it go until she finds out what's going on. Let her go."

He just wanted to hide some things, but he was powerless.Especially when the old man deliberately asked someone to make a fuss, it's good that she didn't pester herself for an answer.

Jin Yuanbao leaned on the back of the chair helplessly at this moment, with his eyes closed, he looked a little tired.

But his head refused to rest for a moment, still thinking about what he should say and how to continue to get along with her after Xia Chuyi came back for a while.

His head was a little messed up, a little chaotic, and Jin Yuanbao, who always liked to arrange everything in a safe and secure manner, now realized that once something got involved with that little girl, all developments would become unknown.

He couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out, so he could only be cautious as always, trying his best to maintain this seemingly unbreakable relationship.

However, it seemed that there was some drowsiness in his head just now, when he saw a shadow running in quickly, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Young master!"

Jin Yuanbao opened his eyes, saw that Ying Wu was kneeling in front of him, and was a little surprised: "What happened?"

Ying Wu is his father's personal bodyguard, and has always been only responsible for his father's personal safety, never caring about other things.Today, actually, ran over in person?

"Returning to the young master, the city master asked his subordinates to come down and tell you that he and Xia Yushi hit it off and became friends for many years, so he decided to stay for a few days so that you don't have to disturb him. After a few days, he will definitely send him away return."

"Forgetting friends?!"

Jin Yuanbao didn't understand what the hell his father was doing, and jumped up from the chair all of a sudden, with an extremely complicated expression on his face.

His first thought was that the old man had detained him, but considering the skills of Xia Chuyi, Chang Huan, and Feng Luo, this possibility was almost impossible.

Or was it used by means?But with Xia Chuyi's current sensory abilities and the medical skills he learned from Ye Junqing's master teacher, that possibility is very slim.

Could it be... the first day of junior high school and his father really hit it off?

After thinking about it, he got up and was about to go out, but was blocked by Ying Wu.

He was still kneeling on the ground, but his attitude was extremely tough: "Young master, the city lord won't let you go, so don't embarrass your subordinates. The city lord's mansion is now under a ban, and you won't be able to enter."

Jin Yuanbao looked at Ying Wu like that, and waved him out, while he walked around the room slowly, and finally asked Ying Yidao next to him: "What are the chances of us forcibly entering the City Lord's Mansion?"

Ying Yi looked at Jin Yuanbao with some embarrassment, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Young master, the city lord said he would send people back in a few days, what are you worrying about? Most of the defenses of the city lord's mansion are arranged by you. Don’t you know that it’s as strong as gold, easy to defend and difficult to attack? If the city lord wants to stop you, we won’t be able to get in at all.”

Jin Yuanbao stopped in his tracks and slammed his fist on the table.

Ying Yi frowned at the side, feeling pain.

……

"Is this the list of everyone in the City Lord's Mansion?"

Xia Chuyi flipped through the booklet in his hand, without looking carefully, just glanced at it casually.

The big butler stood beside him and said respectfully, "Everyone's here."

Xia Chuyi raised his head to look at him, and said in a neutral tone, "Where are the young ladies in the small attic?"

"Young wives..." The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, "Do you want to check, young wives too?"

"Everyone is suspected." Xia Chuyi didn't answer directly. He lowered his head and looked at the list organized by category. He took out a booklet and said, "Gather all the people in this booklet."

The butler immediately took the roster and withdrew.

In the matter of catching the ghost, Xia Chuyi didn't let Mr. Jin intervene, but let him behave as usual and do whatever he wanted.

She asked people to prepare a lot of small notes and pens and ink, and walked to a yard in the backyard with the things.

All the people registered in this roster are the family members of the servants in the mansion, and they also make a living in the city lord's mansion. Most of them are rough envoys who do rough work, and it is rare to see the master's side all the year round.

So they were all gathered at the moment, and they said that a censor was coming to see them, and they all looked sincere and fearful in their hearts, and they all speculated that they had made a big mistake.

As soon as Xia Chu walked over, she saw that the big housekeeper and a large group of people were about to kneel down to salute her. She wanted to stop her, but before she could speak, they all knelt in front of her.

"See Lord Censor!"

Qiqi's shouts resounded throughout the backyard.

Standing in front of them were Xia Chuyi, Chang Huan and Feng Luo behind them, as if they were standing out from the flock, looking down at everything in front of them.

After hesitating for a while, he finally said expressionlessly, "Get up."

The butler immediately signaled the rough women to stand up, and those people stood up obediently, standing still in place, for fear that they might offend the senior official in front of them if they did something wrong.

Although the censor, in their eyes, is a girl in her teens.

Xia Chuyi asked the housekeeper to order someone to distribute the pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and everyone had a copy.

Many of those old women were illiterate, and when they got the pen and ink, they were stunned and didn't know what to do.

As soon as Xia Chuyi stood in front of them, it was rare that he didn't have a playful smile on his face. Instead, he said very seriously: "Something was lost in the City Lord's Mansion, and the thieves are among you."

Everyone in the audience was in an uproar, but she didn't care, and continued: "The lost things are priceless, so this lord must find them out. If they can't be found, all the people in the City Lord's Mansion will be arrested and tortured until they are taken away." Until that person is found!"

Xia Chuyi was really a villain this time, with a killing intent in his expression, which made many people's legs and feet start to tremble in horror.

However, because of fear of her coercion, no one dared to make a sound in the dark crowd.

Seeing that everyone was intimidated by her, she calmed down a bit: "My lord will give you a chance now to write out the person you think is most likely to steal something, and fold it up and put it in that box. No need Sign it, so no one knows who you are writing. If you can’t write, just draw a picture, and you can recognize who is speaking. Do you understand?”

Seeing all the people staring at her in a daze, she frowned slightly, and the butler next to her immediately repeated: "Ask you, do you understand?"

"Listen... I understand..."

Xia Chuyi couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard the trembling answers.

"Then start writing."

She had someone prepare a box similar to a ballot box in advance, which was specially used to collect the notes written by those people, and a large box was full in a short while.

Later, she asked servants, cooks, maids, and gardeners to vote in the same way, almost all of them participated.

At the last stop, Xia Chuyi didn't want to go, but he sighed and led the people head on.

The roster that the big housekeeper made up at the end recorded the status of the 58 young wives that Jin Yuanbao was a candidate for in the small attic.

When the first day of Xia arrived, all the staff had already assembled. She had just stepped into the yard, and she was afraid that she would not be dazzled by the colorful colors immediately.

Take a closer look, hehe, these future young wives of Jin Yuanbao are all very pompous, and the weather is obviously not sunny, but they let the maid hold an umbrella, and they are sitting on chairs, chatting and laughing sky.

They really look like what old man Jin said, Shen Yuluoyan is as beautiful as a flower, each has its own style, each has its own beauty, just looking at it makes it very seductive.

Those cloud temples, bead hairpins, skirts and gauze, powder and rouge, can almost occupy this piece of world.

When they heard someone coming, they raised their eyelids and said, oh, it's a little girl's film, so they pretended not to see it, and went on with their conversations just now.

Xia Chu glanced at him, couldn't help swallowing, and thought to himself that it was no wonder Jin Yuanbao would move out.Sometimes beauty tricks have to be affordable.

"Ahem." She cleared her throat and coughed twice.

Totally ignored.

When Xia Chu looked at the big steward next to him, he said helplessly to Xia Chu: "Master Yushi, my master usually treats them as prospective young wives, who dares to offend them."

Young lady?

Xia Chuyi sneered.

They don't even know where their husband is, but they are still thinking about joking here. They really enjoy their current rich life.

"Housekeeper, get me a fan."

"Hey." The big butler responded, and then whispered a few words to the people behind him, and saw a young servant running away quickly.
