"The interests involved in this matter are not as simple as you think!"
"This matter has a great deal to do with the master. The master's career is so bright now, so let's not cause trouble for him. Isn't it just five hundred taels of silver?"
After hearing what Huang said was so reasonable, both Qian Ruocheng and Butler Liu nodded immediately.
After all, for the two of them, what Huang said was not only correct, but also contained profound truth.
Madam always thinks of the master. It is definitely for the master's good and she would never frame him.
After all, Steward Liu was an old man in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so Huang only needed to give him a little guidance and he would understand immediately.
Although Qian Ruocheng only understood less than half of the meaning, he knew that his mother was right, and he would listen to whatever his mother said.
"Well, since mother has said so, then this money... Hey! Mother, I don't have any money!"
Qian Ruocheng immediately expressed that he had no money.
Huang smiled.
"It's okay, it's just a few silver coins, I will make up for it myself, this matter...you two must not mention it to anyone, even if the master asks in person!"
"Qian Ruoyu is not a simple girl. Now she is so bold because she has joined the palace and become the princess! After we have experienced this incident, we will slowly deal with her!"
The two of them nodded quickly at this time.
A helpless expression appeared on Huang's face.
That was a full five hundred taels of silver. Even though she was the prime minister's wife and had to pay such a large sum of money in an instant, it would still be very painful!
At the main entrance of the central courtyard hall, three boxes were quickly brought in.
As soon as the box was brought in, the door of the central courtyard hall was closed again.
Qian Ruoyu watched all this and guessed in his heart the weight of the boxes and what was in them.
Those three small boxes didn't look very big, about the same size as a jewelry box.
And it takes two people to lift it, so it's obvious that the weight inside is not small.
Small size and large mass means that the contents inside have high density. This is the knowledge I have learned before.
In this era, there are only a few things with high density, such as stone, metal, etc.!
And judging from their sneaky looks, how could the box contain stones?
Then there is only one possibility, silver!
After thinking about these things, Qian Ruoyu suddenly became enlightened.
This means that these two people came with money to ask for an official position, or to ask their father Qian Hongyi to sell official positions and titles.
Coupled with what Huang and Qian Ruocheng had said before about letting Qian Ruocheng enter the government and Qian Ruocheng's career, and Huang's expression when he asked for a thorough investigation of the Prime Minister's Mansion, this made Qian Ruoyu completely connect the dots. There was indeed something wrong with his own father Qian Hongyi!
The thought of this made Qian Ruoyu feel a little hateful. His biological father Qian Hongyi did have a big problem, but Qian Ruoyu himself couldn't solve it for the time being.
After all, he is the father of the owner of this body. Can Qian Ruoyu help her get rid of her father?
What's more, Qian Ruoyu has only been here for a while, so there is no need for her to get involved in such things.
It was for this reason that Qian Ruoyu had to let it go and walked towards the outer courtyard.
But just when Qian Ruoyu was about to leave, he suddenly bumped into a servant.
"What are you doing!"
The servant questioned Qian Ruoyu directly.
"This is the Prime Minister's Courtyard. No one is allowed to come in without the Prime Minister's permission!"
Although this man was dressed in servant's clothes, he looked more like the master here. When questioning Qian Ruoyu, he did not pay any attention to his identity at all.
Qian Ruoyu naturally felt no guilt when she saw him like this.
Because Qian Ruoyu obviously saw something here that he shouldn't have seen, and if he continues to feel guilty in front of the servants and attracts his biological father Qian Hongyi, I'm afraid this matter will not be so simple!
That is why Qian Ruoyu said this courageously.
"I'm walking around the mansion. What's wrong with that? You little dog slave, open your eyes and see who I am!"
Suddenly seeing Qian Ruoyu's confident look, the servant naturally raised his head and suddenly realized that the person standing in front of him was Qian Ruoyu.
Before he could say anything, Qian Ruoyu immediately exploded.
"Do you know what my current identity is?"
"I am the Princess of Night. How dare you scold me like this? You are so bold. Who gave you the courage?!"
After hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, the servant in front of Qian Ruoyu was suddenly frightened!
If it was the Prime Minister's Mansion, even if Qian Ruocheng came, he would dare to scold and question him in the Central Courtyard.
After all, that was the order given to him by Qian Hongyi.
But seeing Qian Ruoyu in front of him, he naturally knew that Qian Ruoyu was now a princess, and King Ye was the current god of war. If he scolded her like this, how many courage would it take to bear the revenge of Prince Chu Mobai?
He was startled and quickly lowered his head, and his knees went weak as he knelt down to Qian Ruoyu.
"Yes...it turned out to be the princess! Please forgive me, princess. I...I was shortsighted for a moment...I didn't recognize that it was the princess herself!"
Seeing this scary look, Qian Ruoyu knew that she seemed to have scared him temporarily.
But this alone is not enough. His purpose here must be legitimate, and it cannot be mixed with the previous 500 taels of silver. Otherwise, certain things will soon be exposed.
"I just walked here and you scolded me like this. If I really walked into the middle courtyard, wouldn't I be arrested by you on the spot?"
"Besides, I grew up in the Prime Minister's Mansion. How could I not know that the central hall is not allowed to be entered casually? Do I need a dog slave like you to teach me a lesson in person?"
After Qian Ruoyu said these two sentences, the servant in front of him lowered his head almost to the ground.
After all, Qian Ruoyu looked extremely angry, so he didn't dare to say anything disobedient or offensive.
"Please...please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"I also thought that the queen had already entered the middle courtyard... so..."
And at this moment, Qian Ruoyu changed the subject.
"In fact, what you did was not wrong. How could it be wrong to help my father protect the compound? I shouldn't blame you. You did a good job here. But you need to keep your eyes clean and bright in the future."
"If there is a next time, the guillotine at the Meridian Gate will probably wipe you clean. Do you understand?"
The servant nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes... please rest assured, Your Majesty!"
