Chapter 154 Confrontation
Nan Yuan looked at the changing faces of the people in the hall and curled the corners of her lips: "Leave the account book with me first. You have been doing the accounts for so many years, you should have a scale in your heart. Make up for what is missing, and put back what you shouldn't have taken as soon as possible. I will just pretend I didn't see it."
"I'll give you three days. If the accounts are not settled after three days and I find out, you can decide for yourself what the consequences will be."
Everyone shrank their necks and nodded in agreement.
At the same time, they were glad that they did not act rashly today, otherwise they would have suffered the same fate as Mrs. Zhao.
One night, many people were so frightened that their legs went limp, and they had to support each other as they walked out.
"Girl, look how scared they are." Yue Ran was helping Nan Yuan sort out the account books.
Nan Yuan looked at the sky and saw that it was almost dawn. She turned to Yue Ran and said, "You've been busy with me all day. Go and have a rest."
Looking at Yue Ran's leaving back, Nan Yuan continued to look at the account book at the desk.
After dealing with these servants with dirty hands, Nan Yuan was still worried.
Living off the savings is not a solution; we must find a way to make money.
outside the window.
Gu Jingheng stood there, looking at Nan Yuan in the room, frowning and sighing from time to time, as if he had encountered a difficult problem.
His daughter A Yuan is good in every way and he is happy just by looking at her.
But when he thought that Nan Yuan was so serious, not for him but for others, he became furious.
Thinking about it again, Xie Luochen was still living in his and Nan Yuan's wedding room openly, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
We have to find a way to get these people out!
"hiss--"
There was a sound of people gasping for air from inside the house.
He looked up and saw Nan Yuan pounding his neck, as if he was tired.
He raised his foot and wanted to go in, but it was already daybreak.
How could he explain his presence here, having walked in so openly, without being noticed by anyone else?
You can't just tell her directly that he arranged all the people in the princess's house, right?
What's more, she had been busy all night and probably didn't want to see him or bother dealing with him.
Forget it, if he doesn’t want to see her, then he doesn’t want to see her!
"Master, the carriage is ready." Guard Ah Qi said respectfully.
It is already time for the Crown Prince to go to court, so there is no time to waste.
Gu Jingheng walked out of the princess's mansion, looked back, and said, "The blood swallows, ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, etc. in my mansion are all a bit old, so I have dealt with them all."
"As for those pearls, hairpins and jades, they are useless to me, so I'll throw them all away."
Ah Qi was stunned for a moment, but adhering to the principle that one must never disobey the master's orders, he replied, "Yes."
The master didn't say what to do with them, so just put them all in your pocket.
Wild ginseng and blood swallows are both very nutritious. Moreover, they are from the master's storehouse, which makes them even better. It won't be too much for him to eat one a day, right?
"Throw it all into Nan Yuan's hands and let her deal with it." Gu Jingheng got on the carriage and added, "Keep a low profile."
"Yes."
Ah Qi slapped himself in the face and said, "How dare you covet your master's things?"
Gu Jingheng sat in the carriage with his eyes closed to rest. He gave these things to Nan Yuan not because he felt sorry for her, but because he didn't want her to die of exhaustion and make it difficult for her to find someone she loves again.
the other side.
Looking at the supplements that Nanny Huang brought to the table, Nan Yuan was full of doubts.
"Princess Le'an, this was specially sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Look at the finished product of the wild ginseng, which is not available outside. And this blood swallow, it is very good for women to eat it."
While praising her wholeheartedly, Nanny Huang looked at Nan Yuan's expression, but found that Nan Yuan was not as happy as she had expected, so she kept silent.
Nan Yuan opened the box and looked at the well-packaged supplements inside. She wasn't sure what Gu Jingheng meant. Why would he give her such supplements for no reason?
She was not going to die, nor could she afford it, so why did she need him to send these things? It was just arousing suspicion!
"Madam Huang, does anyone else know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent supplements?" Nan Yuan was more concerned about whether this matter was known to others. If someone wanted to make a fuss about it, it would be a troublesome thing for her.
Nanny Huang had served in the palace for so many years that she knew what her master meant with just one look from her master. She understood immediately and said quickly, "The guard of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a distant relative of mine. He calls me aunt. He gave me this tonic personally. After I got it, I went straight to the princess. No one noticed. Even if someone saw it, they would only think that it was my nephew's gift to me. Princess, don't worry."
Nan Yuan nodded and felt relieved for the time being.
"Okay, you go down first."
"Yes."
After watching Nanny Huang leave, Nan Yuan looked at the gift boxes over and over again, but did not find any secret compartments or any notes hidden in them.
"what the hell?"
Nan Yuan tapped her fingers on the box, wondering what Gu Jingheng meant. He couldn't really be giving her some supplements, right?
What's the point of giving her supplements?
Suddenly, Nan Yuan thought of something.
In her previous life, Gu Jingheng would always give her some gifts afterward, sometimes jewelry, sometimes clothes, just like the money left by a client.
Is this also what he meant by sending the supplements this time?
But he...didn't succeed either?
Nan Yuan was really going crazy. Why couldn't she just say it directly? She had to guess, and she might not be able to guess it right!
"I'm sick!"
It was already very annoying to deal with these household affairs, and Gu Jingheng was like a time bomb, popping up from time to time to cause trouble for her.
Nan Yuan stuffed all the gifts sent by Gu Jingheng into the cabinet. There were already quite a few things sent by Gu Jingheng here, big and small. If she gave more, she would have to open a new cabinet to store them.
The key point is that none of the gifts are useful. She can't sell the royal items, and she has no occasion to wear them out.
Even if she had it, could she wear the gift from the prince so brazenly? Was she trying to kill herself?
Nan Yuan took a lot of effort to get everything sorted out.
One day in the future I will talk things over with Gu Jingheng, cut all ties with him, and then return these things intact.
Nan Yuan closed the cabinet door and walked out. She had important things to do today.
"Miss, it's the shop in front. It's the most profitable shop under the name of Prince Xie's Mansion."
Baizhi led the way and pointed to a shop in front and said.
Linlangzhai, most of the income of Prince Xie’s Mansion in recent years comes from here.
Nan Yuan took Bai Zhi to stroll around the streets for a whole day and visited most of the shops. It was common for the shop assistants to be lazy and have bad attitudes. What's worse, some of them wouldn't even open their doors.
He took the money from Prince Xie's mansion and acted recklessly because no one was watching over him.
Nan Yuan wrote them down one by one and planned to find a group of new people to take care of the mansion.
A new emperor appoints new ministers, and the same applies to the inner palace.
As it turned to the evening, Nan Yuan decided not to be angry with herself and went to visit the best shops under the name of Prince Xie's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, Nan Yuan heard a quarrel before she even entered the door.
"You are such a rude and unruly person. My princess was conferred the title by His Majesty himself. Let alone a golden hairpin, what would happen even if I smashed your entire store?"
It was a female voice, with a hint of arrogance and arrogance, which made Nan Yuan frown.
"Liuying, smash it for me!"
Hearing this voice, Nan Yuan froze in place.
She will never forget this voice until her death. It is Chu Yunni who has followed her like a shadow for two lifetimes.
