"yes."
The lady responded softly, not forcing anything, "Then I won't bother you anymore."
The lady and her maid retreated.
The Minister of Revenue drank the Tremella soup and continued to work.
His men rushed to the refugee camp at full speed, counted the number of people and immediately sent them back to him. After receiving the news, he sent people to start purchasing.
The number of people in the refugee camp was not much different from what he had estimated.
Fortunately, the little princess gave us a lot of silver and money, which was enough.
However, when paying the silver and money, the Minister of Revenue discovered that there was less silver and money.
How could it be less?
The Minister of Revenue felt a pang in his heart, because he had counted the money!
Now it’s less...
His heart sank.
He had no choice but to use his own money to make up for it, then hurried back to the mansion and called everyone there, "Who has been to the study recently?"
The person who had been to the study took a step forward.
No one knew what was going on.
"What are you doing in the study?"
The Minister of Revenue looked at them.
The servants and maids all spoke up, "We are here to clean the study. We clean it every day."
"The servant came in for patrol, took a look around and then left."
"I am here on orders. Aunt Gan asked me to come in and get some money for her. She said you, Master, agreed."
Aunt Gan, who rushed over, almost fainted when she heard this.
Bastard!!
How come you recruited me?
The Minister of Revenue's face darkened.
Aunt Gan was his concubine.
"Madam Gan, do you have anything else to say?" The Minister of Revenue looked at Madam Gan who was approaching, "You are doing very well!"
"How dare you take this batch of money privately!"
"Did I ever tell you that this batch of money belongs to the little princess and cannot be touched?!"
"I've told you so much, but you didn't listen to a single word I said, did you?"
"Why, your jewelry isn't enough for you to pawn?!"
Aunt Gan fell to her knees with a thud, shouting, "Master, this is unfair!"
"He slandered me!"
The servant quickly spoke up, "Master, please understand. I didn't slander Aunt Gan. She even gave me money!"
"Here it is."
The servant took out his silver bag and took out the silver ingot inside. "Look, there's a little bit of red on this silver, the same color as Aunt Gan's nail polish."
"I didn't lie!!"
The Minister of Revenue glanced at the silver ingot in the servant's hand, then looked at Aunt Gan, who tucked her hand into her sleeve guiltily.
"Master, he must have stolen my money!!"
The Minister of Revenue was very disappointed. "If you had told me the truth, I would have thought more highly of you."
"Someone, go search Aunt Gan's yard!"
At the order from the Minister of Revenue, the guards immediately rushed towards Aunt Gan's yard.
Aunt Gan's face was full of panic. The Minister of Revenue glanced at her, stood up and followed her.
The guards quickly found the silver and money. The silver and money that the little princess gave him had the names of other countries printed on them.
It's easy to tell.
The Minister of Revenue looked at her and asked, "Do you have anything else to say?"
"Master, Master, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Aunt Gan was really scared.
She originally thought that she did this secretly and would not be discovered.
I didn’t expect that the master would know!
She only took a little bit!
How come the master knows this little thing?!
"I just think that all this money belongs to the master, and I only need to use a little bit, so it's okay..."
The Minister of Revenue sneered, "What do you think? Go and talk to the little princess!"
"Come, take her to the palace!"
Aunt Gan struggled hurriedly, "Master, I was wrong, Master!!"
“Mmmmm…”
The guard beside her stuffed a hand towel into her mouth and took her away.
When the Minister of Revenue brought Concubine Gan to the palace, Yuchi Xi was watching them practice martial arts.
The Minister of Revenue came over and knelt without saying a word.
Yuchi Xi was so frightened that he immediately rushed over to support him, "Let's talk it over!"
"Don't kneel down at every turn."
The Minister of Revenue was stunned. "Yes."
"Your Highness, this is my concubine, Aunt Gan. She..."
The Minister of Revenue told Yuchi Xi what Aunt Gan had done, "This is what happened. Please let the little princess make the decision."
Yuchi Xi nodded and said, "I told you before that this money cannot be touched."
"Whoever embezzled this money will be beheaded."
"Her stealing is equivalent to embezzlement."
"Grant him death."
Yuchi Xi spoke in a cold tone. She is not a good person.
Aunt Gan was so frightened that her legs went weak. She didn't understand why she was going to be sentenced to death just for taking some silver.
Aunt Gan's tears were streaming down her face. She wanted to say something but couldn't.
He was eventually taken away by the guards.
The Minister of Revenue didn't even blink. He had already told Aunt Gan the pros and cons of this matter. If he hadn't made up the money immediately, he would have been guilty as well.
Something bad will happen to him too.
"Since you've paid the money back, you can keep the money you got back from her for yourself!"
Anyway, the amount of silver allocated is still the same.
"Yes!" The Minister of Revenue was full of gratitude. "Thank you, Your Highness the Little Princess!"
If it were the emperor, he would never get the money back.
Yuchi Xi gestured for him to go about his own business.
As soon as he left, the Minister of War came and knelt down without saying a word.
