Yun Ruoyue also said: "Father, I dare to guarantee with my own life that mother would never do such a thing. If this jewelry was really stolen by mother, why didn't she hide it somewhere else? She would hide it here waiting for you.
Come search?”
Mrs. Liu sneered, "Princess, maybe the place that my sister thinks is the most dangerous is the safest place? She didn't expect us to dare to search her yard, right?"
Yun Ruoyue looked at Mr. Liu coldly, "Second Madam, why did everyone find jewelry in the yard as soon as you suggested searching the yard? Do you have the ability to predict the future?"
A hint of guilt flashed in Ms. Liu's eyes, and then she smiled and said: "Princess, the eldest sister is the first suspect, so of course we have to search her yard. You don't think we put these stolen goods, do you? Normally, Mother Sun guards Dongfengyuan.
It's so tight that not even a mosquito can fly in. Anyone who dares to come here to frame my sister will risk his life!"
"Okay, you all should stop arguing!" Yun Qing said, glaring at Huang, "Hongying, no matter whether you did it or not, you must give an explanation to the truth, otherwise you will not have to take care of this family.
Got it!"
Seeing that Yun Qing did not believe in him, Huang was filled with disappointment.
She said calmly: "Master, I did not take these jewels. When I took inventory of the warehouse in the morning, I found that the things missing were far more than this. If I really wanted to hide the treasures here, why did I only hide so little?"
Yun Ruoyue also said: "Yes! Father, where are the other treasures? Why don't you send someone to search carefully again to see if other treasures can be found in Dongfeng Yuan. If not, then this matter will be discussed separately.
There’s something fishy!”
Mrs. Liu sneered: "Princess, my sister is not a fool. How could she hide all the treasures together? Maybe the other treasures have been moved by her!"
As she said that, she looked at Yun Qing and said: "Master, so many pairs of eyes have seen this matter, you can't protect your sister. You must deal with it fairly and justly in order to convince everyone."
Yun Qing glanced at Mr. Huang coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Hongying, I trusted you, so I handed over the management of our family to you. Tell me, do you blame me for neglecting you all these years, and are you resentful of me?
Would you do such a thing?"
Huang immediately said: "I don't have a master. If I am really resentful of you, I will never help you manage the house again. I have good daughters like Yue'er and Ling'er, and I also have two good sons-in-law. I have no shortage of them."
There is no need to risk money and do this kind of thing. Don’t you still believe me after we have been married for decades?”
Yun Qing was stunned when he said this.
He frowned gleamingly, but actually he didn't believe Huang would do such a thing.
But with so many pairs of eyes watching, he could only say: "I believe you, but the facts are before us. If the truth is not dealt with impartially, how can we convince the public?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Huang was very chilled. She said disappointedly: "Master, what are you going to do with me?"
"True truth..."
Before Yun Qing could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yun Ruoyue, "Father, the Ministry of Punishment always pays attention to the joint trial of three divisions when trying cases. It must be retried many times before the case can be finalized only if the evidence is conclusive. Now I want to convict my mother based on these jewels.
This is too childish! Besides, mother is your first wife, don’t you understand her character after living with her for so many years? "
Yun Qing's face turned red when he said this.
His eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice: "What Ruoyue said makes sense, and I also think there is something fishy about this matter. Hongying, I will temporarily take back your stewardship rights, and we will wait until the truth is investigated."
Huang said: "Okay, sir."
Yun Qing raised his eyes and glanced at everyone, his eyes full of majesty: "The truth will never let this matter go, the truth will definitely investigate clearly. If the truth is allowed to find out the real thief, the truth will never be lenient.
"
After saying that, he left coldly with his hands behind his back!
Ms. Liu rolled her eyes proudly.
Very good!
The master has temporarily taken back the power of the Huang family. If the thief cannot be found later, the suspect will be the Huang family.
When the time comes, the master will definitely return the power of running the family to her, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will be hers again!
Seeing the pride in Mrs. Liu's eyes, Yun Ruoyue was filled with doubts.
It seemed that there was something wrong with Ms. Liu. She had to find an opportunity to follow Mr. Liu and see if she could find out anything.
-
Then, Yun Ruoyue comforted Mr. Huang for a while before leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion with Feng'er.
After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, the two of them were not in a hurry to go home, but went to the street to buy things.
At this time, Feng'er walked to a stall and said, "My dear, look, this windmill is so fun! Can we buy one for the young prince and the princess?"
"Okay, you go ahead and buy it!" Yun Ruoyue smiled.
Just as she finished speaking, Yun Ruoyue suddenly saw a familiar figure sneaking into a gambling house.
She hurriedly pulled Feng'er over and said, "Feng'er, don't buy it yet! Who do you think that is?"
Feng'er quickly looked in her direction.
When she saw the man clearly, she had a look of shock on her face, "Madam, that's the fifth young master. The fifth young master is still so young, why is he going to the gambling house?"
Yun Ruoyue narrowed her eyes and said: "Of course you go to a gambling house to gamble money. I didn't expect that he got addicted to gambling at a young age. Come on, let's follow him and have a look."
"Okay." Feng'er said.
Then, Yun Ruoyue took Feng'er into the gambling house.
There were people coming and going in the gambling house, both men and women, so no one paid attention to them, which made it easier for Yun Ruoyue to follow Yunhai.
At this time, Yun Ruoyue saw Yun Hai walking towards a young man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and then he greeted the young man.
Just listen to the young man say: "Yunhai, your mother didn't notice that you came to the gambling house again, right?"
Yunhai said proudly: "Of course not. I told her that I was going to attend a calligraphy and painting exhibition with my classmates, and she asked me to come!"
Having said this, he said again: "Wen Yan, I lost 30,000 taels of silver here a few days ago. Today I specially brought 10,000 taels of silver notes. This time, I must return the money I lost before."
Bring it all back."
As he spoke, he took out a large stack of banknotes from his pocket.
Seeing this stack of banknotes, Wang Wenyan was so shocked that his eyes popped out, "Yunhai, your family is really rich. Your mother just helped you pay off your gambling debt of 30,000 taels, how come you have so much money?"
Yun Ruoyue and Feng'er were also shocked when they saw the stack of banknotes.
Why does Yunhai have so much money?
And judging by Wang Wenyan's tone, Mrs. Liu came to help Yunhai pay off a gambling debt of 30,000 taels just a few days ago.
Although Mrs. Liu used to be the head of a household, her monthly income was only one thousand taels. She spent money very lavishly and could not save any money at all.
Where did she get so much money?
At this time, Yunhai looked at Wang Wenyan with a mysterious expression on his face, "My mother said that the secret must not be leaked, but I can't tell you."
