"Steward Lu has such great authority."
When she came in, Steward Lu looked at her and didn't recognize her for a moment. "You … which family's young miss are you?"
Looking at her luxurious clothes, Housekeeper Lu instantly lost his previous arrogance.
"Who else could it be? Of course it's the eldest young miss of the Marshal Fu. Steward Lu, don't you recognize me? "
"You are Wei Ziyao?"
"That's right, I am. But I don't know when it's your turn to call This King's Consort by her name?" Wei Ziyao looked at him and walked in.
Looking at the two boys kneeling on the ground, she smiled. "Really impressive. Even His Highness King Yin doesn't have the same style as you."
"Wang Fei really knows how to make people suffer. This old servant is just teaching two servants a lesson. You won't ask about such a small matter, right?"
The butler's reaction was quick and he immediately put Wei Ziyao in the position of being a busybody.
This made her laugh out loud. "Hahaha … servant? Look at you, it's as if you aren't a servant. "
"You!" For so many years, Steward Lu had been by Old Madame's side. Who dared to treat him as a servant? Now that Wei Ziyao said this, especially in front of those servants, he couldn't keep his face.
"What's wrong, servant? You still want to go against your superiors? You're already so old. This consort thinks you're old but not smart. You don't kneel, bow, or salute when you see this consort. What? You really think you're the master of this house? "
Wei Ziyao's stern questioning was very intimidating. The key was that Steward Lu was in the wrong.
He kneeled down in humiliation. "Wang Fei, please forgive this old servant. This old servant only thought of you as the previous eldest young miss and forgot that you've changed your identity now."
Steward Lu wanted to express that they were close when they were still young miss, so there was no need for these formalities. But it was deliberately interpreted maliciously.
"Oh ~ ~ Steward Lu means, when I was young miss, you could do whatever you want. Now that I'm a consort, I'm purposely showing off in front of you?"
Wasn't it so!
Steward Lu was furious.
"Alright, since the housekeeper is scolding this consort in a roundabout way, then this consort can't ask for it, right? Get up. I'm not here to pick a fight with you on purpose. This consort is here to check the accounts. "
"What!?" It was fine to find fault, but how could he check the accounts? "Who do you think you are? What right does a married daughter have to check my Marshal Mansion's accounts? "
Housekeeper Lu instantly exploded.
"Oh, why are you in such a hurry? Is Steward Lu feeling guilty? Although this fei is married, grandmother is still the mistress of the Marshal's manor. She ordered me to check the accounts, could it be that the housekeeper wants to stop me? "
At this point, Butler Lu had already realized the seriousness of the problem.
This Wei Ziyao was like a completely different person. She used to be someone he could easily bully, but now her gaze was so terrifying.
"Old Madam is really muddle-headed. How can she let an outsider like you check the accounts? I want to see Old Madam!"
"Steward Lu, you still need to be careful with your words." Wei Ziyao reminded him. She could tell that he was already so angry that he spoke without thinking.
"You want to see grandmother? Heh … I just gave you a chance to invite you over, but you didn't want to. Now you don't have a chance. Kneel here and don't get up until I call you. The two of you, come with me. "
She waved her hand at the two servants kneeling by the side. Then she instructed Pi Dou who had just rushed over to watch the show, "Watch him. If he dares to move, call me. See if I won't break his legs."
Actually, checking the accounts was just an excuse. Her real intention was to pick a fight.
But the more she checked the accounts, the more she felt that something was wrong.
He didn't even bother to fake the accounts. He actually just openly took money out. Now there was a huge hole in the accounts.
Wei Ziyao checked the accounts for more than an hour. There were more than 20 pieces of jewelry and jade missing from the accounts.
One had to know that this was the Marshal Mansion. Everything that could be stored in the warehouse was priceless.
Wei Ziyao looked at the accounts and then at Steward Lu, "With so much money, do you still want to gamble?"
