Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 21 Audit 2
"It turns out that the Second Madam and Butler Liu are worried about this..." Wei Zijin's eyes wandered back and forth between Lin Xueyao and Butler Liu, and said with a faint smile, "I can understand the books, so I won't waste too much time!"

Lin Xueyao and Liu Butler looked at Wei Zijin in shock again, wondering if she was talking big, or if she really understood the ledger!

It would be best if she didn't understand, if she could understand, it would be very difficult for them to make a fake account and hand it over to Wei Zijin for investigation in just ten days!

The palms of Lin Xueyao and Steward Liu began to sweat, and they glanced at each other quietly. Lin Xueyao said again: "Madam, in fact, the accounts in the house are managed by Steward Liu, and Steward Liu is the most trusted by Lord Shangshu. Madam suddenly wants to Check, are you suspecting Steward Liu of tampering?"

Wei Zijin cast his eyes on Steward Liu in front of him, looked at his slightly trembling hands pretending to be calm, sneered in his heart, and replied coldly: "Second Madam's words are wrong, I naturally believe in Liu Steward, but Second Madam And Steward Liu insists on not wanting me to check the accounts, so is there really something wrong with it?"

She asked a rhetorical question, and Lin Xueyao and Liu Butler, who immediately responded, had nothing to say.

Although Lin Xueyao's face was ugly for a moment, she quickly returned to her usual smile: "Ma'am, I misunderstood, I just think that the matter of checking the accounts is very important, and I should report it to Lord Shangshu first..."

"Second Madam is right, even if you want to investigate, you should report to Lord Shangshu!" Butler Liu nodded repeatedly, echoing Lin Xueyao's words.

Wei Zijin watched the two of them acting together, and secretly sneered. At this time, he actually used Shen Rui's name to scare her off? !

Since they all said that, she might as well do what they want!

"What Second Madam and Steward Liu said is not unreasonable. Since the matter is so important, let me tell him in person!" Wei Zijin said clearly, and as soon as the words fell, the expressions of Lin Xueyao and Steward Liu changed again.

They just wanted to find a reason to persuade Wei Zijin to give up, but they didn't expect that she would take the initiative to tell Lord Shang Shu about it!

If Master Shangshu agrees and finds out that there is a problem with the account book, then the consequences for both of them will be disastrous!

Lin Xueyao and Steward Liu were still anxiously trying to figure out a way to turn this matter around, when they heard the servant girl say "Master Shang Shu, you are back".

Wei Zijin and Lin Xueyao looked up one after another, only to see Shangshu Shen Rui returning to the mansion in high spirits, earlier than usual, and beside him, there was a man with a dignified body and a dignified appearance.

Shen Rui, who was dressed in court uniform, had clear eyebrows and was a handsome literati. He was originally considered a typical handsome man among court officials, but compared with the men around him, he suddenly lost his momentum.

The man had deep eyes like a cold lake, his sword eyebrows flew slantingly, and his thin lips were slightly pursed under the bridge of his high nose. His calm but powerful aura immediately frightened Lin Xueyao who was sizing him up curiously.

Although she didn't know who the person next to Master Shang Shu was, Lin Xueyao had deduced from his gaze and restrained and elegant temperament that this man must have a noble status!
Butler Liu also saw the man following Shen Rui, he didn't care to be surprised, and hurriedly bowed down to greet him respectfully: "This old servant has seen the King of Luoyang!"

"Exemption—" The thin lips of the man known as the King of Luoyang slightly parted, and he uttered these two words lightly, his eyes bypassed Shen Rui and Liu Butler, and fell on Wei Zijin who had been sizing him up.
