The madam listened to Xiao Fan's words and suddenly spoke as if she realized something.
Oh no, the person in front of me is Concubine Liu, the emperor’s favorite concubine!
Now that I'm taking sides directly, aren't I just asking for trouble?
Concubine Liu may not be able to defeat Xiao Fan, but if she wants to kill a mere brothel madam like me, isn't that easy?
Thinking of this, the madam almost burst into tears.
What on earth is going on?
Why am I so miserable!
The madam thought about it, her eyes fell on the two women from Zuixianlou, and she looked at them with such a look that she wanted to eat them alive!
If it weren't for these two, things wouldn't be like this!
At this moment, Concubine Liu was very gloomy and had scolded the two of them over and over again.
She never thought that these two people would tell her all the truths about the period.
"Xiao Fan, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Taking a deep breath, Concubine Liu pretended to be calm and spoke.
As long as she doesn't admit it, Xiao Fan has no evidence to prove that she did it!
Thinking of this, Concubine Liu felt as if she had grasped some hope and spoke without hesitation, "You two lowly people are simply crazy. You are just trying to make excuses to save your own lives. Someone, beat them to death!"
"Wait!" Xiao Fan suddenly spoke up. He looked at Concubine Liu and laughed. "Concubine Liu, you want to beat them to death just because they falsely accused you. Are you trying to silence them?"
Xiao Fan spoke slowly and even had a smile on his face, but anyone could see the coldness in his words.
When Concubine Liu saw this, her expression changed drastically. She looked at Xiao Fan with a pale face and couldn't say anything.
"Xiao Fan, what are you talking about? I came here today simply to uphold justice, but these two betrayed my trust. What's wrong with me wanting to kill them?"
Concubine Liu spoke without thinking, and her breathing became a little rapid because she spoke so anxiously.
Xiao Fan, on the other hand, looked calm.
He could see that Concubine Liu was now panicking.
When the two women saw that Concubine Liu not only refused to admit it but also wanted to beat them to death, they immediately stopped admitting it and knelt down. "It was Concubine Liu. She sent someone to give us the silver. The silver is now in our room in Zuixianlou. If Master Xiao doesn't believe it, just send someone to go. We will definitely find the silver!"
"Oh? Xiao Da, go and look for it!"
"yes!"
Xiao Da nodded immediately, and then without wasting any time, he quickly headed towards Zuixianlou.
Xiao Fan just sat there with a talkative look on his face, and he was in a very good mood at the moment.
Now that the whole matter has been clarified, it is easy to move to Concubine Liu.
All we have to do is search out the silver.
Although Xiao Fan is now confident that he can bring down Concubine Liu, he still wants to be safe and wait until all the evidence is collected before doing anything.
After all, no matter what, Concubine Liu is the emperor's most beloved concubine. Who knows whether the emperor will believe her if the evidence is not sufficient?
This woman is favored. If I whisper in her ear once or twice, I will be in big trouble!
Now is the most critical moment, Xiao Fan must not allow any accidents to happen!
You must know that although the Liu family is an emerging force, emerging does not mean weak!
Concubine Liu looked at this scene with a very ugly expression, but she didn't know what to say.
She stared at Xiao Fan's profile, and suddenly seemed to think of something and spoke quickly, "Xiao Fan, stop talking nonsense and accusing me! Besides, even if we really found the silver, what would it matter? Who can prove that I took it out?"
When Xiao Fan heard Concubine Liu say this, he felt as if he had heard something very interesting and laughed out loud.
He leaned back in his chair, glancing at Concubine Liu. "Have you, Concubine, stayed in the palace for too long and forgotten? The silver in the palace is different from the silver outside the palace."
"What?" Concubine Liu's expression changed drastically.
"The silver in the palace has the palace's stamp, while the silver outside the palace is far inferior in quality to the silver inside the palace, and it doesn't have the royal stamp on it."
"As soon as the silver is taken out, we'll know whether it's the royal family's silver." Xiao Fan said slowly, "Don't worry, Concubine Liu. You'll know everything once you see the silver."
When Xiao Fan said this, he was actually a little surprised.
He really didn't expect that Concubine Liu didn't even know these basic things.
But this has always been normal. After all, she has been in the palace for so many years and is used to a life of luxury.
But none of this matters. As long as we find the silver, we’ll know everything!
Concubine Liu's face turned very ugly when she heard Xiao Fan's words. She had indeed overlooked this matter.
"So what if that's the case? How can you be sure that this silver belongs to me?" Concubine Liu continued to be stubborn.
Xiao Fan just laughed out loud.
His laughter was so loud that it could be heard throughout the entire courtroom. "Your Highness, how could you possibly say that you haven't left the palace for so long?"
"I admit that there are indeed many officials in Dayan who do nothing and are greedy for women. But Dayan does not allow officials to go to brothels. How could they use official money to go to brothels?"
"There will be no official silver in this Zuixianlou no matter what, am I right, madam?" Xiao Fan said as his eyes fell on the madam.
The madam didn't dare to waste time and nodded quickly, "Master Xiao is right!"
Their Zuixianlou had been open for such a long time, and the amount of government silver they had received was almost insignificant. The main source of this government silver was Xiao Fan and **, these playboys.
After all, neither of them had been appointed officials by the imperial court before, so even if they were really caught and found drinking and feasting in Zuixianlou, there would be no problem.
After hearing what Xiao Fan said, Concubine Liu's expression changed again and again.
She opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing. Concubine Liu looked as if she had collapsed.
She knew that this time it was really over!
The palace maids who came out with Concubine Liu were panicked when they saw her like this. They hurried forward and asked, "Your Majesty, are you okay? Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Concubine Liu waved her hand weakly, signaling the two to stop arguing.
With a grim expression on her face, she stopped looking at Xiao Fan and kept looking outside, becoming more and more nervous.
Chen Rong stood aside and basically understood everything about the scene before her.
At the same time, the entire government office was in chaos.
