Who was Tsui Hee? That was Wei Ziyao's ability to read people's minds, so she quietly retreated from the crowd.
On the other hand, Bai Wei and the rest had their hands on their hips as they followed Wei Ziyao to the accounting office.
As soon as they entered the office, they ran into Luo Yichen. "Yo, Princess, what's going on?"
"You're here?" Wei Ziyao glanced at Luo Yichen and narrowed her eyes.
Luo Yichen shuddered in fright from that one look.
He felt like the princess had seen right through him.
"I, I just came here to take a look and coincidentally bumped into you, Princess …"
"Mm, since you're here as well, let's check the accounts today."
"Check the accounts?" Luo Yichen was confused. "What's going on?"
"Your Princess Rui is suspecting that I'm embezzling public funds. She came to my herb garden to ask for money. If I don't check the accounts today, I, Wei Ziyao, won't be able to show my face anymore."
"This …" Luo Yichen glanced at Rui 'er. "Alright then. It just so happens that this subordinate hasn't looked at the accounts for a while. Let's take this opportunity to check it out."
"Aiya … I, I'm dizzy. Princess, why don't we do it another day …" Ruier panicked and wanted to run.
Wei Ziyao perked up. "Yo, you're dizzy? That's pretty serious, Bai Wei!"
"Here! Princess, I'm here! " She saw Bai Wei carrying a huge first-aid kit. This was the special first-aid kit that Wei Ziyao had asked the Emperor for from the Imperial Academy of Medicine.
"The Northern Qin Divine Doctor is at your service. Where does it hurt? Tell me, where does it hurt?" Wei Ziyao said as she waved her hand. A five-inch-long silver needle appeared in Wei Ziyao's hand.
"I, I'm not in pain … I, I'm dizzy." Ruier took a step back.
"Yeah, I can cure dizziness too."
Ruier swallowed her saliva and blinked awkwardly. "Maybe I was in a hurry just now. I'm much better now."
"Mm, that's good. Luo Yichen, prepare to reconcile the accounts."
Luo Yichen couldn't help but gulp as well. Then, he took out his account book and started to compare it with the inventory.
He wouldn't have known if he hadn't checked, but he was shocked when he did.
In addition to the lack of money, there were also a lot of rare treasures missing.
"When I went out for a task, the first thing I did when I came back was to check everything in the account house. Everything was normal at that time. After that, the key of the account house was given to Princess Rui. How could so many things be missing in such a short time?"
Even Luo Yichen didn't dare to believe that so much was missing!
They checked for four whole hours, which was four hours in total.
They worked from evening to night.
At this moment, Ki Chien-chul finally arrived.
"What's going on? What are you doing? "
"Royal Highness …" When Ruier saw Ki Chien-chul, she subconsciously threw herself into his arms for protection.
Wei Ziyao said coldly, "I think it's better for you to kneel and beg for mercy now."
"Sister … you don't know the whole story yet. Why do you want Ruier to kneel? Ruier doesn't even know how the money went missing. Who knows if someone set her up? Besides, the treasury is indeed short of money. But the 50,000 taels that sister took away a few days ago doesn't match up, does it? "
"I knew you were going to say this!" Wei Ziyao clapped her hands. "Tsui Hee, bring her here."
"Coming!" Tsui Hee was very happy. She had been waiting outside with her people for more than two hours, waiting for this moment.
"Go ahead. Tell Princess Rui everything that happened that day."
The person who was invited here by Tsui Hee was the shopkeeper who mistook Wei Ziyao for Ruier that day.
