Now that he looked at it, the difference between the two was like clouds and mud, but … the one in the clouds was the princess, not Ruier as the rumors said.
"Princess did come to the store to gamble on stones a few days ago, but …" The shopkeeper explained the whole story.
God forced him to recall that nightmarish day.
"How … How is that possible?" She actually didn't spend a single cent and even made a profit!?
"Ruier, what do you say now? I didn't take the money from your treasury. "
"I took the money from the treasury." At this time, Hong Hao stood up. "That day was the day when the horse farm was purchased and paid the final payment. Princess Rui, you should know that I told you about it before."
Told her about it! Ruier finally reacted.
But that was a long time ago, how could she still remember it?
"It seems that the fifty thousand has been found. Then shouldn't you give me an explanation for the missing money? How much are you missing? "
Wei Ziyao swept a glance at Luo Yichen.
"Princess, one hundred and twenty-three thousand taels of silver, seven hundred taels of gold, jewelry, porcelain, and jade are missing."
"So many things? Ruier, are you trying to empty the mansion! "
"I'm not! I'm not! "Ruier shook her head desperately." Don't slander me, I, I took so much money for what? "
"That's right, you took so much money, what did you do? You should be the one asking that! "Wei Ziyao looked as if she didn't want to die from anger.
"Royal Highness, I really didn't touch the money in the treasury. I don't know how the money in the treasury disappeared."
"It's a good excuse that you didn't take it, but you don't know … I'm afraid it doesn't make sense. As the mistress of the house, you can't absolve yourself from the blame for losing so much money."
When Wei Ziyao said this, Ruier's face turned as white as paper.
Now there were two choices in front of her. One was to deny it and they would definitely investigate it thoroughly. The other … was to give up the position of mistress immediately.
She didn't want either of them, but she had no choice.
She dropped to her knees. "Royal Highness … I'm sorry, Ruier has disappointed you. It seems that Ruier is not suitable for managing money. Speaking of which, Ruier grew up in the palace and has no experience in managing money. I've embarrassed you."
"It's fine." Ki Chien-chul shook his head. "It's normal that you can't manage such a large mansion. Since you can't manage it, then the mansion can't be without a manager. Wei Ziyao, I'll leave the position of Mistress of the Household to you for the time being!"
After saying this, Ki Chien-chul turned around and left.
Ruier wanted to make a contribution today, so she took advantage of the fact that Royal Highness was not around to get Wei Ziyao out.
She didn't expect that … tears would flow out of her eyes. "Wei Ziyao, are you satisfied now?"
"Little Sister Ruier ~ You can't blame me for this."
If you want to blame someone, blame Royal Highness. You idiot, you're the only one who can't see that this was Ki Chien-chul's plan all along.
Wei Ziyao took the keys to the accounting room and skipped back with Tsui Hee.
Halfway through, she saw Ki Chien-chul.
"You'll be in charge of the accounts. You can spend the money however you want. You don't have to think about earning money for the herb garden anymore." Ki Chien-chul looked at the keys in Wei Ziyao's hands.
He didn't know why, but he felt more at ease than Wei Ziyao. He always felt that it was better for the keys to be in her hands forever.
"Ki Chien-chul, you're really something. This is all part of your scheme, isn't it? That horse farm settlement was also part of your scheme. You made Ruier fall into the trap and then suddenly made things difficult for her. You're really something! "
"You're still the smart one. You saw through it immediately." Ki Chien-chul praised her.
"That's enough. When I saw Luo Yichen in the accounting room, I knew that things weren't simple. You really know Ruier well. You knew that once she found out that the accounting room was burning money, she would come looking for trouble with me."
"This King doesn't know her well." With that, he glanced at Wei Ziyao again. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't and turned to leave.
