Traveling through: I rely on space to raise the sick Wei Wang

"Set as a warning to others? Well, yes, I accept your statement. But when it comes to setting an example, I'm afraid it's you, as the concubine, who is most at fault."

Chu Yu had a bad premonition in her heart: "What does the princess sister mean by this?"

"Your maid secretly took bribes and plundered a lot of money from the people. She clearly promised that they would give them enough porridge and rice to satisfy their hunger, but she fooled them with soup. If she hadn't broken her promise, why would she have done this?"

Chu Yu met Xu Ruqing's indifferent and calm eyes. She didn't look like she was lying.

She turned to Lisa and asked: "Is there any truth to what the princess sister said?"

Lisa's eyes were wandering, but she quickly calmed down, and without any explanation, she knelt down in front of Chu Yu: "The concubine is unjust. I don't know what the princess is talking about. It's obvious that the lunatic made rude remarks and took it out on me because I couldn't argue with you. I overturned the porridge and straw huts provided by almshouses, but my servant didn’t charge even a cent of the unclean money!”

Seeing this, Chu Yu felt troubled, and seeing Lisa crying, it didn't look like she was lying.

I thought that Xu Ruqing had fallen into a trap a few days ago and would have to shed her skin even if she didn't die when she came back. She finally took this opportunity to show off in front of the prince and took the initiative to do the charity work. She didn't expect that this bitch recovered so quickly. , She followed the prince wherever he went.

Now that she was riding a tiger, she couldn't let any remarks about her improper handling of internal affairs reach Su Yichen's ears.

"I know this girl Lisa. She is timid and shy. There is no way she would do something that would bring bad reputation to the palace."

Xu Ruqing sneered: "Really? I think the concubine also trusted Lika very much at the beginning and never believed that she would kill the prince. But the final result disappointed both me and you. Not to mention the loss of Lika's life, you also Therefore, she was punished and grounded. At that time, the concubine's appearance of protecting Lika was just like today."

Xu Ruqing's words brought Chu Yu's thoughts back to the memory of that incident. It was because of Xu Ruqing that she was banned, and it was also because of her that Lika almost died. Fortunately, Nengjia later secretly rescued Lika. Otherwise, I would really lose a right-hand man.

"Humph, thank you Princess for reminding her, I know it well. But since you said Lu Luo did that kind of thing, you might as well provide evidence. If it is true that I am not strict in discipline, I can use the evidence to deal with her."

"It's not difficult." Xu Ruqing gave Xuan Yu behind him a look: "Let's do it."

Before Chu Yu could realize what Xu Ruqing meant by striking, Xuan Yu picked up the saber at his waist and pulled out its scabbard, and strode forward to stab Lisa.

Lisa was shocked. Didn't she talk about the evidence? Why did she come to kill her?
"Concubine save me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was only a slight tearing sound as the restraints around his waist were released, and a slightly heavy object fell from the inner layer of the clothes.

Lisa hadn't felt the pain for a long time. Lisa opened her eyes in confusion and saw her money bag being held by Xuan Yu. Before she could grab it, Xuan Yu roughly counted the pink and green money and put it away again. Bao tightened his hands and offered it to Xu Ruqing.

"master."

Xu Ruqing nodded lightly and took the money bag. Before she could ask, Lisa nervously asked: "What are you doing to steal my money? Give it back to me!"

Xu Ruqing avoided her outstretched hand, and Lisa almost fell down: "What's your money? It's obviously stolen goods."

"You're talking nonsense. This money belongs to me. Every penny of my money is clean, so it's not stolen goods. Could it be that the princess has no evidence to punish the slave, so she found such a reason to slander the slave out of nothing!"

Chu Yu rolled his eyes left and right, obviously not agreeing with Xu Ruqing's statement: "Lisa is right. It would be too hasty to convict Lisa based on just a money bag. How can the princess sister prove that it is stolen goods?"

Xu Ruqing took the money bag in his hand and weighed it, and there was a clear and pleasant sound of metal clashing inside: "This money bag is quite heavy, and there is at least 100 taels of silver in it."

"so what?"

Xu Ruqing did not answer Chu Yu, but said to Lisa: "You are a second-class maid and you are from a commoner background. Your monthly salary in the palace is only two taels of silver. How can you get so much silver in such a short time?"

Lisa said: "The concubine is a kind and generous person. When she learned that the slave was born in a humble background and was from a poor family, she took the slave for her own use. Even the monthly silver she gave her was twice as much as other sisters. I saved all this money." of."

"That's not right. Doubling the monthly silver is four taels. It would take at least a year and a half to save 100 taels. And the concubine has only been married into the palace for a month. How can I have the money to reward you... Could it be that the concubine has been receiving funding from King Gaochang since she got married, so she can give you so much money, or is it that the concubine has exceeded her rank and exceeded the rules and used public funds privately? If this is the case, the concubine is so ignorant of the rules that she should not let me go. In your eyes, or don’t you take the prince into account?”

"This..." Lisa didn't expect that Xu Ruqing was so logical and could easily expose her lies without telling her. In a few words, she put Chu Yu at the forefront of public opinion.

After a woman gets married, she becomes a member of her husband's family. Moreover, because of Chu Yu's special status, Gao Chang was suspected of being a spy for the King of Wei. If she admitted that she had financial dealings with Gao Chang, it would mean that she did not marry Su Yichen for any purpose. Pure... no matter which one he admits, it will be extremely detrimental to Chu Yu.

"I did give her money, but I just used my own dowry." Chu Yu also thought of this and immediately defended.

Xu Ruqing smiled meaningfully: "I didn't expect that the concubine would be so generous. She would give her a dowry of 100 taels as soon as she asked."

"That's not true. Since it's a dowry, it's what the Khan and the queen mother gave me. How could I give such a valuable thing to a servant?" Chu Yu was going crazy. How could Xu Ruqing have any loopholes? Drill.

Seeing that Lisa was about to be exposed, she immediately changed her words: "The concubine only gave me part of it. I also earn some myself..."

"Oh, really?"

Lisa nodded without confidence: "Yes, I do sewing work for some rich ladies in my free time, and I gradually saved so much."

"That's even more wrong. As a maid of the prince's palace, you take the salary of the prince's palace but work for other palaces. Your deed of betrayal is still with me. If you do this, you are subordinate to the two masters. If word spreads, I don't know. They thought that the Duke of Wei treated his servants harshly and laughed at the prince for being unfaithful in his employment..." Xu Ruqing's eyes turned cold: "Lisa, you are so brave!"

"I, I..." Lisa was completely panicked.

"Xuan Yu, according to the rules, how should we deal with disloyal servants?"

"Returning to the princess, those who are unfaithful to the master will be resold after compensating the loss holder for 200 taels. In serious cases, their limbs will be severed and disabled, and they will not be able to use them for life."
