Rebirth of the Legitimate Daughter: This Wave of Operations Amuses the Entire Capital

Before rebirth, Shen Weiwan was the famous "stupid" legitimate daughter in the capital. She was used as a pawn by her aunt and cousin, handing over the key to the general's mansion ware...

Chapter 27: Caught red-handed! The scene of the aunt picking the lock was horrific

"I will keep a closer eye on the key to the warehouse." The old housekeeper sighed, "But as for Liu..."

"Don't worry about Auntie," Shen Weiwan waved her hand, "her eyes hurt so much that she can't open them, how can she care about anything else? But the old housekeeper," she took a step closer, "I think there may be something wrong with the accounts in the warehouse. When Auntie gets better, should we check the accounts?"

The old housekeeper was startled, then nodded: "Young Miss is right, it's time to investigate thoroughly."

Seeing the old housekeeper's thoughtful look, Shen Weiwan felt relieved. As long as the old housekeeper was willing to cooperate, it would not be difficult to find evidence that Liu had embezzled money.

"Oh right," Shen Weiwan seemed to remember something, "His Highness the Seventh Prince just passed by and asked about the warehouse."

"The Seventh Prince?" The old butler was surprised. "Why is His Highness here?"

"Maybe he was just passing by." Shen Weiwan said vaguely, "But His Highness said that we should be careful and not let anyone with ill intentions take advantage of us."

The old butler's expression grew serious. Although the Seventh Prince seemed laid-back, he was actually a man of great foresight. Since he specifically mentioned this, he clearly knew something.

"I understand," the old housekeeper said solemnly, "Don't worry, Miss. I'm here in the warehouse and will never let Liu succeed!"

Looking at the old housekeeper's departing back, the smile on Shen Weiwan's mouth slowly widened.

Chun Tao came over and asked in a low voice: "Miss, did you really move the Seventh Prince out?"

"What else?" Chen Weiwan raised an eyebrow. "To deal with someone like Liu, you have to use what she fears the most. Hasn't she always wanted to climb up the social ladder? Let her know that the Seventh Prince is paying attention to the General's Mansion, and she won't dare to act rashly again."

"Miss, you are amazing!" Chuntao's eyes were full of admiration. "The look on that old hag Liu's face just now was truly delightful!"

Shen Weiwan raised her chin proudly: "This is just the beginning. The best is yet to come!"

She turned to look at the closed door of the warehouse, her eyes gradually becoming firm.

Liu, do you think this is the end? I will take back everything you owe me and the General's Mansion, one by one, with interest!

At this moment, a head suddenly popped out from the top of the wall. He was wearing a moon-white brocade robe and had his hair tied up with a jade hairpin. It was the seventh prince Xiao Yu.

He waved his folding fan in his hand and looked at her with raised eyebrows: "Miss Shen, have you tortured me again?"

Shen Weiwan was startled. She looked up and saw that it was him. She said unhappily, "Your Highness, why are you climbing over the wall like a thief?"

Xiao Yu jumped down and brushed off his clothes. "This is called understanding the people's sentiments." His eyes fell on her face. "You performed well in the 'ghost storehouse' scene just now."

"That's right!" Shen Weiwan said proudly, "Don't you even look at who's playing it!"

Looking at her like a little peacock spreading its tail, Xiao Yu couldn't help but laugh: "Did Liu use the medicine I gave you?"

"How dare she use it?" Shen Weiwan curled her lips, "I'm afraid she thought I gave her poison!"

Xiao Yu laughed and took out an oil-paper bag from his sleeve: "Here, osmanthus cake, just bought from the street."

Shen Weiwan's eyes lit up, and when she took it and opened it, she saw that it was indeed a fragrant osmanthus cake: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Seeing her eating with such satisfaction, Xiao Yu's smile deepened: "Eat less, be careful not to choke."

"I know, I know. Your Highness is more nagging than my mother." Shen Weiwan said vaguely, but her heart was warm.

In the setting sun, two people stood in front of the warehouse, one was eating happily, and the other was watching with a smile on his face. It looked like a harmonious picture.

Chun Tao tactfully stepped aside, muttering to herself, "Isn't the Seventh Prince too good to the young lady? He sends her medicine and snacks. Could it be that he really has a crush on her?"

Shen Weiwan finished eating the osmanthus cake and wiped her mouth: "Your Highness, what exactly brought you here today?"

Xiao Yu put away his folding fan, his eyes becoming penetrating. "I've had Liu's accounts checked, and there are indeed problems."

Shen Weiwan's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Yes," Xiao Yu nodded, "Not only did she embezzle the household funds, she also secretly sold off a lot of things from the General's Mansion. I have already sent the evidence to the old butler."

Shen Weiwan was so excited that she almost jumped up: "Great! This way we can drive her out!"

"It won't be that easy," Xiao Yu poured cold water on him. "The Liu family has been operating in the General's Mansion for many years and will definitely strike back. You have to be careful."

"I know!" Shen Weiwan clenched her fist. "I'm not afraid of her!"

Seeing her high morale, Xiao Yu couldn't help but reach out and wanted to ruffle her hair, but he stopped mid-air and tapped her forehead lightly: "Use your cleverness in the right way, don't always think about stuffing chili powder into the keyhole."

Shen Weiwan covered her forehead and muttered dissatisfiedly: "That's better than being bullied!"

Xiao Yu laughed: "Okay, I'll be leaving first. If you have anything to say, please send a message to the palace."

"Your Highness, take care!" Shen Weiwan waved her hand and looked at Xiao Yu's departing back, her heart filled with strength.

With the help of the old butler and the evidence provided by the seventh prince, Liu's good days are over!

She turned to Chuntao and said, "Let's go back to the room. We need to figure out how to make Auntie vomit out everything she ate!"

Chuntao nodded vigorously: "Yes, Miss!"

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the green tiles of the general's mansion and also on Shen Weiwan's confident face.

In this life, she not only has to protect the General's Mansion, but also make all those who have hurt her pay the price!

Liu was lying in the room at this moment, her eyes swollen like walnuts, listening to the servants' whispers, trembling with anger.

She knew that the war between herself and Shen Weiwan had officially begun. However, she did not expect that this time, she would no longer be facing the silly daughter who was manipulated by others, but a thorny and scheming little hot pepper!

A bigger storm is brewing in the General's Mansion.
