"Yes, that doctor is a retired imperial physician from the palace. His medical skills are superb, so his consultation fee is rather expensive." Nangong Rou said in a small voice.
"You spent eight hundred taels on a pair of embroidered shoes?"
"These are the jade shoes that Wang Ye ordered Mama Zhang to find someone to make for me." Nangong Rou said.
At this time, Mama Zhang disdainfully interrupted, "Wangfei, Concubine Ce's jade shoes are considered cheap. In other shops, any pair of shoes would cost several thousand taels of silver. Wangye dotes on Concubine Ce and wants to give her the best things in the world, but Concubine Ce understands Wangye and only picked the cheapest pair."
"You spent ten thousand taels on a set of jewelry?" Yun Ruoyue looked at the account book again.
Nangong Rou shyly lowered her head, "This is all because of Wang Ye's favor. I didn't want it, but Wang Ye said that if I didn't want it, he would be angry, so I took it."
"So you've only been married to the Wang Fu for a month, but you've already spent more than a hundred thousand taels?" In the end, Yun Ruoyue looked at the account book and couldn't believe the amount she saw.
One hundred and fifty-six thousand and seven hundred taels. This was the amount that Nangong Rou spent on food and clothing for a month after marrying into The Emperor of Li's residence.
The Wang Fu's expenses were close to ten thousand taels.
This amount of money was enough to feed a city's commoners for a year.
When Nangong Rou heard this, she immediately shook her head in disbelief, "It can't be, there's actually this much?"
She said that she was surprised, but her eyes were filled with pride.
mark(“zhong“);
Chu Xuanchen doted on her so much and was willing to spend so much money for her. This time, Wang Fei would be angered to death, right?
But Yun Ruoyue's following words made her feel as if she was in an ice cellar. She was so scared that she didn't dare to breathe.
Yun Ruoyue slammed the account book onto the table. Her sharp eyes swept over everyone as she said in a deep voice, "Housekeeper, send people to seal off this courtyard. No one is allowed to enter or leave. This Princess wants to check the accounts. This Princess wants to check the accounts one by one. Immediately have people prepare to go out and ask those clothing stores, shoe stores, jewelry stores, vendors, Jade Auspicious Pavilion, etc. according to the accounts written in the account book. Check the accounts one by one with those bosses. If you find any accounts that are different, write them down for this Princess."
When Nangong Rou heard this, she was frightened and hurriedly said: "Wang fei, what do you mean? Don't believe me? These are all gifts from His Highness, and they are all approved by him. "
"His Highness did agree to give you these gifts, but he didn't say how much money to pay for them. He only asked you to get them from the accounts. Now, these gold and silver jewelry don't match their prices at all. The prices far exceed the value of the items. I suspect that you've falsified the numbers and embezzled the money from the accounts. I'm afraid that you've colluded with each other to embezzle more than a hundred thousand yuan. I'll check them one by one and I'll definitely find out. "Yun Ruoyue said sternly.
"You …" When Nangong Rou heard this, her body went limp and she quickly glanced at Li Xiucai.
Li Xiucai, on the other hand, was so scared that his body trembled uncontrollably.
When the housekeeper heard this, he quickly ordered the guards to guard all the entrances and exits. He didn't allow anyone to go out and report to the stores. This was to prevent the stores from colluding with Nangong Rou's people to falsify the accounts.
After the guards guarded all the entrances and exits, the housekeeper sent some of the guards out to check the accounts one by one.
Nangong Rou immediately regretted it. If she had known this would happen, she would have used the opportunity of ink to chase her cousin out. Then, none of this would have happened.
What if they found out that she was involved?
