The prince wanted to divorce his wife during pregnancy, and the reborn princess burst into laughter

Chapter 28: Aunt Qin's Greed

Ling Xiao is the youngest prince, ranking fifteen, while the emperor is the eldest.

There are currently two princes in the capital, the fifth and the ninth.

The fifth brother is the emperor's biological brother. They are brothers from the same mother. The emperor will definitely not take action against him. At most, he will make him an idle prince and ensure that he lives a life of wealth and glory.

The Ninth Prince has never been interested in the throne since he was a child. He has only been interested in business and is now the emperor's money bag.

Several others were in the clan house, two were in the prison, a few were in their fiefdoms, and two were exiled to bitter and cold places.

Among these fifteen brothers, not one died.

Although the other brothers were badly suppressed, it does not mean that they have no ability to resist.

Being a prince is not as simple as it seems. We must not underestimate them. Each of them holds certain power, and the emperor cannot catch them all in one fell swoop.

So he still has to prepare for a rainy day.

So he made some arrangements again.

On the other side, Prime Minister Su returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion angrily. Thinking of Li's disgusting face, he felt sorry for Luo, so he came to Luo's yard.

Luo's courtyard was called Fenghuayuan, and the name was given by him. Back then, Luo was also a stunningly beautiful woman.

Fenghuayuan was not far from his yard, only a few hundred steps away.

Even though it was so close, he hadn't been here in a few years.

Walking into Fenghua Courtyard, it looked much more desolate than before, and there were not many people in the yard.

"master."

When a servant saw him coming, he quickly bowed.

"Where's your wife?"

The servant said, "Madam is still looking at the account book."

"Oh? Isn't she in poor health? How come she still has the energy to look at the account book?"

Prime Minister Su was very surprised.

The servant said, "Madam is much better now, thanks to the Second Miss, who has been taking care of Madam's health these past few days. Madam is much better now."

Prime Minister Su was stunned when he heard this. When did Su Nanyi learn medicine and could she regulate Luo's health?

He waved his hand to let the servant go, and he went to Luo's bedroom.

At this moment, Mrs. Luo was still looking at the account book sent by Aunt Qin.

I haven't looked at the account book or managed the household for so many years, and Aunt Qin has made a mess of the account book.

There are a lot of confusing accounts here, and she needs to sort them out.

She also discovered that Aunt Qin had embezzled a large amount of silver. She would sort it all out and hand it over to Prime Minister Su for disposal.

Mother Wu was also serving nearby.

"Madam, it's late, you should get some rest."

Luo waved his hand: "It's okay, looking at the account books won't tire me out."

Mother Wu said distressedly, "There are so many account books, and I can't finish reading them all at once. Anyway, there is no rush tonight."

"It's not urgent this evening, but a lot of the accounts are wrong. We have to sort them out quickly, for fear that someone will take the opportunity to destroy the evidence."

As soon as Prime Minister Su came in, he heard what Luo said, and he quickly asked, "What's wrong with the account book?"

"I've met the prime minister."

When Mother Wu heard that it was Prime Minister Su's voice, she quickly turned around and bowed.

Luo also put down the account book in her hand and stood up to greet Prime Minister Su.

Prime Minister Su went over and held her shoulders: "You are not in good health, so don't go through those empty formalities. You just said there was something wrong with the account book. What's going on?" Luo looked up at Prime Minister Su. It has been many years since he came to her yard. What was going on today?

She lowered her eyelids and said calmly, "I found that some of the accounts were false, and the whereabouts of several large sums of money were unclear. I want to sort them out and hand them over to the Prime Minister for processing."

Prime Minister Su frowned: "Are you saying that Aunt Qin embezzled money from this?"

"I haven't sorted it out yet, so I'm not sure."

Luo told the truth.

"show me."

Luo nodded, took out all the suspicious account books, and showed them to Prime Minister Su one by one.

When Mother Wu saw the couple like this, she quickly slipped out quietly, closed the door gently, and then stood guard outside.

She also ordered the other maids to quickly prepare hot water, as the prime minister might want to rest here later.

After seeing this, Prime Minister Su in the room flew into a rage: "What a shameless Concubine Qin, she's almost emptying the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Prime Minister Su is able to hold the position of Prime Minister, so he is not an illiterate person. He can be said to be well-educated. How could these accounts escape his sharp eyes? He could see the wrongness in them at a glance.

Several of the accounts were fictitious and involved large amounts of money, and their whereabouts were unknown, which meant that all the money went into Aunt Qin's pocket.

It was a waste that he had loved Aunt Qin for so many years, but she actually emptied his Prime Minister's Mansion. It was simply blinding to him.

These women had been by her side for so many years without noticing anything. Prime Minister Su was furious.

After looking around, Luo is still the best and most virtuous.

Luo said, "It's already evening, let's talk about finding Aunt Qin tomorrow."

Prime Minister Su would not wait until tomorrow. He said in a deep voice, "I will try that bitch tonight. I treated her well, but she turned out to be so greedy."

Prime Minister Su simply couldn't swallow this breath. He came out and saw Mother Wu and Hong Da outside, and immediately ordered them: "The two of you go to Yilan Courtyard and bring the bitch Qin Yi Niang here to me."

Mother Wu knew what was going on, but Hong Da didn't know what was going on. However, it was Prime Minister Su's order, so he dared not disobey.

So the two of them hurried to Yilan Courtyard.

At this time in the Yilan Courtyard, Aunt Qin was drinking ginseng tea with a cold look on her lips. She had worked hard to manage the Su Mansion for many years, but Prime Minister Su just took away her power as the head of the family without any mercy.

Thinking of all the money she had embezzled over the years, Aunt Qin felt a little uneasy. After all, Luo had been in charge of the family for many years, and the false accounts she had made could not be hidden from her at all.

So she put down the teacup in her hand and called over her confidant, Mother Bai.

"lady."

Mother Bai bowed to her. Behind other people's backs, Mother Bai always called Aunt Qin "Madam". Only in public did she call her Aunt Qin. This was also to fulfill Aunt Qin's dream of becoming a lady.

Aunt Qin came out holding a box and handed it to Mother Bai, saying, "Send this to my cousin and ask him to take good care of it. I'll go find him when I'm free."

Mother Bai took the box and said, "I will definitely deliver the box to my cousin."

Aunt Qin patted Mother Bai on the shoulder and said, "Okay, now that this matter is settled, I will promise Xiang'er to Ming'er as his aunt."

Xiang'er is Mother Bai's daughter and also works in the mansion. She has long wanted to be Su Nanming's concubine, but Concubine Qin has always refused because she looks down on a maid.

Her son's aunt must also be a rich lady.

But in order for Bai Mama to deliver the things safely, he promised Bai Mama.

Mother Bai was delighted when she heard this, and quickly bowed and promised, "Thank you, Madam. I will definitely live up to your trust."

"Then go quickly, don't let anyone see you."

"Yes."

Mother Bai immediately came out holding the wooden box.
