Concubine, you can't be sick, the prince favors the evil concubine

Chapter 11 Unknown

5000 taels?Is it just a January surplus?Even the old lady opened her eyes and looked at Mrs. Jiang.

If this is the case, then why is there no trace on the books of Zuo Xiangfu?

Only He Lanyue's face did not change at all, but a slight smile flashed in the corner of her eyes.When she walked behind the four shopkeepers, she had already sprinkled quicklime on their backs without a trace.Shopkeeper Xu is the closest to the brazier, so he naturally sweats easily.This sweat melds with quicklime...

Jiang's smug smile instantly froze on her face, replaced by eyes full of surprise.how come?How could this be?He also took money, how dare he say that?Isn't he afraid of being sent to the government?
The other three shopkeepers who were traveling together looked at shopkeeper Xu in surprise.How did he tell the truth?You know, although some of the money was given to Jiang, they also left a lot.If this matter is exposed, then the consequences...

"You can have a surplus of 5000 taels in one month?" He Lanyue was not surprised, she nodded her head lightly, glanced at the astonished Mrs. Jiang, and did not pursue further questions, but continued to ask the shopkeeper Jiang of the Jianbaozhai Antique Shop, " Shopkeeper Jiang, what is the surplus of Jianbaozhai?"

Just as shopkeeper Jiang was about to speak as planned, his body also paused, and the heat from his back could not be ignored. "This this……"

Five thunders struck the top, and the four big characters also appeared in Shopkeeper Jiang's mind, scaring him back from his original words.How is this going?Will the oath really come true?
"What? Shopkeeper Jiang, is it possible that Jianbaozhai's annual surplus is less than 500 taels?" He Lanyue spoke slowly, with a light tone, without a trace of irony.But in the ears of others, there is a hint of ridicule.It is a well-known secret that the income of antique shops far exceeds that of blacksmiths.Shopkeeper Xu said that the annual surplus was 580 taels, but the actual monthly surplus was nearly 5000 taels.These four shopkeepers all came together, and shopkeeper Jiang hesitated at this time, so there was no guarantee that something would happen.

"No... no, miss." Shopkeeper Jiang stabilized his thoughts, only to realize that he was already covered in cold sweat, and the temperature on his back became increasingly hot, so he quickly said: "The average surplus of Jianbao Ramadan is 1 About ten thousand taels, with an annual surplus of 12 taels."

12 taels!

In an instant, the sound of breathing in the room came one after another, forming one piece.

What is the concept of 12 taels!The dignified Left Prime Minister He Lanwei's annual salary is only 1000 two hundred taels!The income of a shop turned out to be a hundred times that of his!
When He Lanwei heard this number, his face was instantly filled with astonishment, then he sank, and quickly withdrew his gaze from He Lanyue, looking at Jiang Shi with some coldness.Although he didn't know exactly how many taels of silver the Zuo Xiangfu had, it was definitely not such a large sum!

The Jiang family has been in charge for nearly ten years, and there is still not much money on the books of Zuo Xiangfu, so where did the money go? !
Jiang's mood at this time, surprise is not enough to describe.They obviously took the money!Are they all crazy!
However, Mrs. Jiang is worthy of being the mistress of the house for many years, she quickly calmed down, and instead of arguing with the two 'rebellious' shopkeepers, she knelt down in front of the old lady and He Lanwei, with a serious expression on her face. Miserable, said: "Mother, master, you have to trust me. The reason why there is no money on the account is because it has been replaced by a house, all of which are in the capital, and the deed of the house is in my house. There is absolutely no money. Nothing wrong."

Regarding her situation at this time, Jiang Shi was very clear in her heart.No matter what the reasons for the two shopkeepers were, she had nothing to hide.Therefore, her only solution is to tell the whereabouts of the silver.Now, she only hoped that the remaining two shopkeepers would not tell the whole story, otherwise there would be nothing left of the dowry she had prepared for He Lanning, and it would all flow into the purse of the evil star.However, she seemed to have forgotten that the money was originally earned from the shop that Xuanyuan's family left to He Lanyue.

Regarding Jiang's reaction, He Lanyue slowly closed her eyes, and then slowly opened them. The corners of her perfect lips outlined a dazzling curve, and the voice in her mouth was as soft as a gentle breeze.However, to Mrs. Jiang, it was like a demonic voice from hell, "Shopkeeper Lang and Shopkeeper Luo, how is your shop's annual surplus?"

The two shopkeepers had been waiting for He Lanyue to ask.It was because they were already in a cold sweat.In addition, it was very close to the brazier, and there was already a lot of sweat on the body, and the back was already faintly hot.Recalling the previous oath, the two couldn't wait.If He Lanyue didn't ask after a while, they would even take the initiative to ask.

With a thud, the two shopkeepers knelt down together, and told the whole thing, not even missing the profit share with Jiang.

As soon as these words came out, there was no sound in the room, and even the breath was held.Only the sound of the flame beating seemed clearer than before.

After hearing the words of the remaining two shopkeepers, how could He Lanwei not know Jiang's previous plan?In an instant, his face was livid with anger, with veins popping out of his forehead, he glared at Mrs. Jiang, and shouted: "Bold woman! How dare you covet the money in Mo's house, and the amount is so huge! Someone, drag her out of the truth, and severely punish her." Take care. Tomorrow the truth will be revealed to the Holy Majesty, so put an end to this unpredictable woman!"

"Ah! Don't! Master! Don't..." Mrs. Jiang was completely flustered now, and she didn't even have time to think about why the four shopkeepers who had already agreed upon had turned their backs and made it clear about the distribution of spoils among them.She was completely frightened by He Lanwei's word 'Hugh'.If she was divorced, wouldn't He Lanning be unable to marry a good family, and wouldn't she have nowhere to go for the rest of her life?For so many years, the master has always spoiled her very much, and he will not really divorce her. He must be scaring her, it must be!

"The truth has been decided!" He Lanwei's words were resolute and his eyes were firm.So much money was exchanged for a house without his knowledge!Today, she was told by those four shopkeepers that if it weren't for that, wouldn't those house deeds have been held in her hands forever, without being known to others!
Jiang's body froze immediately, and after a short but intense unbelievable moment, his eyes suddenly became hollow, distracted, and he sat slumped on the ground, seemingly lifeless.

it is true!The master really wants to divorce her!

He Lanyue just looked at what happened in front of her eyes lightly, without joy or pity, not even a trace of emotion.Jiang Shi's end today is nothing but her own fault, if she hadn't thought about swallowing Xuanyuan Shi's dowry, how could she be here today?Of course, He Lanwei's coolness was also one of the reasons.The love between husband and wife for more than ten years is not worth the silver that has not yet been obtained.

Soon, the servants entered the house, and Mrs. Jiang was like a dead body, allowing them to hold her down without any resistance.
