Suddenly, she raised her hand and slapped Dan'er across the face. She gritted her teeth and said, "Dan'er, I treated you like a sister. How could you harm me like this? I was so good to you, so why did you collude with Li Xiucai to steal the Prince's estate's wealth? At first, I didn't believe that you had the guts to do so and kept speaking up for you. I never thought that you would betray me! You've disappointed me so much! "
She gritted her teeth fiercely as she said this. She looked as if her heart was in pain from anger.
Seeing this, Chu Xuanchen stepped forward and held her firmly. "Rou'er, this has nothing to do with you. Don't blame yourself too much."
"No, this is all my fault. I shouldn't have brought Dan'er here as a dowry. She and I are like sisters. I don't want her to end up like this because of her greed." Nangong Rou buried her head in Chu Xuanchen's arms and sobbed.
Chu Xuanchen patted her shoulder and glanced coldly at Yun Ruoyue. He realized that Yun Ruoyue wasn't even looking at them. She was looking at the account book, as if she only had eyes for the money and didn't care about them.
If it was in the past, she would have cried and made a scene.
But now, she was indifferent to their love. It was as if she was looking at a stranger and didn't feel anything.
Seeing her indifferent look, his eyes suddenly turned cold. He said in a low voice, "Someone come, confiscate all of Li Xiucai and Dan'er's assets. Put all of their embezzled assets back into the public treasury. Record every single one of them and don't make any mistakes. Let the Princess Consort verify them."
Since she liked to be in charge so much, he would let her be.
However, after what happened today, he had to admit that she was indeed more capable than Nangong Rou at managing a household. She was more suitable to be The Princess of Li.
"Your Highness, Uncle Hua was wrongly accused. Should we let him continue to be the bookkeeper?" Yun Ruoyue wasn't afraid of doing more work. On the contrary, she was afraid of having nothing to do. She didn't want to be an idle Princess Consort.

"Alright, Uncle Hua. I've wronged you," Chu Xuanchen said to Uncle Hua.
When Uncle Hua heard this, he was so moved that he knelt in front of him and raised his hands, "Many thanks to Wang Ye and Wang Fei for clearing this old servant's injustice."
At this point, he wiped his tears with his sleeve and cried emotionally.
Yun Ruoyue said, "Uncle Hua, please help me check the accounts later. Redo all of Li Xiucai's accounts until all the numbers are correct. Also, from now on, I will be in charge of the key to the storehouse. As long as the expenditure exceeds a thousand taels, you must report to me. You can only withdraw the money with my approval. "
"Yes, Your Highness." Uncle Hua said.
He realized that this Wangfei was meticulous, smart, and very family-oriented. Compared to Nangong Rou, this sinister woman, she was much more suitable to be the matriarch.
But why didn't the prince have eyes? He had made a mistake. He actually doted on a woman like Nangong Rou.
However, Nangong Rou had always been good at disguising herself. Even he didn't see through her before. It was only because she had been framed that he saw through her. The prince was busy every day, so it was normal that he didn't see through her.
At this moment, Yun Ruoyue looked at Chu Xuanchen and said coldly, "Your Highness, what should we do with Dan 'er and Li Xiucai?"
Chu Xuanchen looked coldly at Dan 'er and Li Xiucai. Suddenly, he picked up two teacups from the table and smashed them hard on their faces. He said coldly, "Someone come, give Li Xiucai fifty strokes of the plank and send him to the authorities for punishment."
When Li Xiucai heard this, he was so frightened that he trembled. "Your Highness, didn't you say that as long as this lowly one confessed, you would spare this lowly one? Why do you want to give this lowly one fifty strokes of the plank? "
