Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife - Chapter 345

[Chapter 345 The Dumbfounded Madam]

Shen Binghuai took the wooden box and saw the so-called silver note inside, her brows furrowed: “Where is this silver note, it’s clearly a stack of waste paper.”

“Impossible!” The eldest lady exclaimed. She stepped forward and grabbed a few silver notes. She took them in her hands and looked at them carefully, but found that the ink marks on the edges of some of the silver notes had faded away, making people unable to see the amount. It’s clear, it’s clearly fake, “This box hasn’t been touched since it was delivered yesterday, so it must be fake as soon as it’s delivered!”

Mu Yunyao’s face was pale: “Auntie, all the silver notes used by Niyunfang and Buxianlou are issued by Changhe, and there are stubs there, and there will never be fakes…”

The eldest lady panicked to the extreme: “So what? Can’t you deliberately fake these banknotes? I can’t believe that you have such vicious thoughts at such a young age!”

“These days, I have been in Baohua Temple. Even if I was in Fuzhong before, I was honestly staying in Jiyue Pavilion. I dare to ask if I have any chance and ability to forge a silver note to frame you? You look down on me too much. .”

The eldest lady looked back at Su Wenyuan in a panic, with a particularly firm tone: “Master, I haven’t touched this wooden box since it was delivered, and I don’t even know what the silver ticket is inside, it must be Mu Yunyao who framed me! ”

Mu Yunyao shook her head slightly, and looked at the eldest lady with a very unfamiliar expression, as if she had only recognized her true face today: “Auntie, I will let someone pack a box for any valuables such as silver notes. Then, after the sealing wax layer on the edge of the box is locked, if you say that you have not touched it, what about the sealing wax and the lock on the box?”

“How would I know, this box is like this as soon as it arrives!”

“You are talking nonsense! Cough cough…” Yun Chun was very excited, coughing a few times before he went along, “When I sent the box, it was clearly sealed with the sealing wax intact, and now it has been taken apart… You must have moved your hands and feet…”

Mu Yunyao shook her head and seemed to be extremely disappointed: “Yunchun, don’t talk about it, these 200,000 taels of silver… Forget it, just pretend it never existed, the big deal is Niyunfang in Kyoto. The Hebuxian Building has been postponed for a few months, and now, my mother and I just want to move out, and I ask my uncle and aunt to agree.”

“No, this matter must be made clear. You are so vague, don’t you make me stigmatized for nothing and spread it out, everyone thinks that my dignified lady of the Shangshufu is greedy for your little girl’s money?”

“Auntie, why are you insisting on what it is today? You clearly know that Lord Shen’s rank is one level lower than that of Uncle, and there is no way to investigate this matter without the emperor’s decree. Would you like to have someone search the room?”

The eldest lady gritted her teeth and looked at Su Wenyuan, she had to clean herself up about this matter. If she couldn’t prove her innocence, but instead confused her, her reputation would be completely ruined. Once her reputation is ruined, Su Yuyi, who she raised by herself, will inevitably be implicated.

“Okay, as long as I can prove my innocence, how about letting you search the yard? The clean people are clean, the dirty ones are dirty, and only the dark-minded people spend the whole day with the flies and dogs, with the heart of the villain, Save the belly of a gentleman!”

Su Wenyuan saw Da Furen with such a firm expression, and his mind relaxed a little. The previous things were already somewhat inexplicable, and the crime of greed for 200,000 taels of money could no longer be implemented. Judging from Meng’s expression, she really hadn’t touched those banknotes. In that case, it was impossible for so many banknotes to appear out of thin air, so she wasn’t afraid of being found out.

“Madam is right. In order to prove the innocence of my Su family and prevent rumors outside, it’s okay to search the yard. It happens that Lord Shen is present, so I can bear witness from the side.”

Shen Binghuai looked slightly embarrassed: “Is this something wrong?”

Su Wenyuan said: “Don’t worry, Lord Shen, I made this statement myself. No matter what happens, Lord Shen will not be implicated. Even if the emperor asks, I will explain it clearly.”

Shen Binghuai nodded: “So, then Shen will be a witness from the side.” He also wanted to know what happened to the 200,000 taels of silver notes.

The eldest lady looked at Mu Yunyao coldly: “Yunyao, you have some maids by your side, do you want them to search?”

Mu Yunyao shook her head: “Since I am also involved, I should avoid suspicion.”

Shen Binghuai admired in her heart: “Miss Mu is reasonable and reasonable, which is really admirable.”

The little girl in front of her is not very old, but her etiquette is extraordinarily thoughtful. Even if she knew that she had been beaten by someone secretly, she might not be able to recover in the future, she forbeared her grief and did not cry. With such a graceful and flamboyant bearing, it is a pity that ordinary high-level families cannot raise them, but they will not be able to conceive children in the future, which is really a pity…

The people brought by Shen Binghuai were all men. Naturally, they could not search the eldest lady’s room by themselves. They could only dispatch some maids and wives from the western courtyard to let them do the work. The people from Shuntian Mansion stood in the room to supervise.

Not long after, the eldest lady’s room was searched, and nothing was found.

The eldest lady smiled coldly: “Mu Yunyao, should you believe it now?”

Jin Lan said angrily from one side: “Who knows if the eldest lady has hidden the banknotes elsewhere?”

“Jinlan shut up!” Mu Yunyao turned back and scolded, “Apologize to auntie.”

Jin Lan reluctantly stepped forward and saluted: “The servant’s words are unremarkable, please punish the madam.”

“Oh, well, I’ve already searched my room anyway, so let’s just search the entire East Courtyard. I have a clear conscience, and naturally I’m not afraid of villains!” The eldest lady gave the order directly to those maids and old women, “Continue to search , ask the people from Shuntian Prefecture to watch from the sidelines.”

The East Courtyard is very large, so the search is naturally not that fast. After a while, a maid came to ask: “Madam, do you still want to open the search in the warehouse?”

There was nothing shameful in the storeroom of the East Courtyard. The eldest lady nodded simply: “Mother Qi, go back to my room to get the key and let these people do a good search.”

Mu Yunyao stood quietly on the side, seeing Su Qing’s sad expression, she whispered to comfort her, as if she didn’t care about the results of the search.

After about a quarter of an hour, the official of Shuntian Prefecture quickly walked over with a stack of silver notes: “Sir Shen, I found it.”

It was as if a thunderstorm exploded in Da Furen’s ear, and she was stunned in place: “What… what? What did you find?”

Su Wenyuan was also stunned, his eyes fixed on the stack of silver bills, and he strode forward to pick up one to check. Stacking, it’s really heartwarming.

The eldest lady came back to her senses, her face full of disbelief, and her expression seemed to be a little crazy. She stepped forward and grabbed the silver note: “This is impossible. Where did these silver notes come from?”
