Chapter 186 The Little Princess is Missing
Tears fell freely from Liu Fengyao’s eyes, dripping, and several drops even fell on the back of Prince Xian’s hand, burning him terribly.
"When we were outside just now, you didn't believe Yaoyao! Yaoyao only has you in her heart. When we were in Prince Yi's mansion, Yaoyao didn't let Prince Yi touch me for you."
Prince Xian's heart softened. Thinking of the grievances Liu Fengyao suffered on the street, he stretched out his hand to hold the woman in his arms and sighed softly: "Yaoyao, it's not that I don't believe you, but this housekeeper is not as easy as you think!"
Liu Fengyao raised her head with a strong face, her eyes sparkling: "Prince, Yaoyao will definitely be able to manage it!" Prince
Xian sighed helplessly, and finally could only agree.
After Leng Bingtang returned to the yard, he hummed happily.
The two maids and a nanny beside her congratulated them when they saw their master so happy: "Princess, the housekeeper's hot potato has finally been handed over, but the days in our courtyard in the future..."
There was no money in Prince Xian's Mansion, and they estimated that Liu Fengyao would take revenge on them severely.
Leng Bingtang smiled nonchalantly: "Take care of my dowry, register it and back it up directly at the government office. From now on, we just need to take care of ourselves!"
"Didn't Prince Xian swear an eternal love affair with that Liu Fengyao? Let the two of them get together, and it's best if they stay together forever, so that they don't come out to harm others!"
The nanny was still unwilling: "But I have been using your money to make up for it all this time, and I still feel at a loss!"
Leng Bingtang smiled nonchalantly: "It's just a little money, just feed it to the dog!"
"Besides, I also need the position of the prince!"
Her son will definitely be the prince in the future, as for Liu Fengyao...
"Princess, I feel such a pity. I thought that little bastard wasn't the prince's." The girl said with regret.
Leng Bingtang sneered: "How do you know it's the prince's?"
The girl was stunned: "Didn't they just do a blood test? The blood of both people has mixed!"
Leng Bingtang sneered: "That doesn't necessarily mean they are biological children! Let them be happy first!"
"But that bastard is now in charge of the family. It is estimated that he will covet the position of the prince in the future. Let them pay more attention to the prince and don't make any mistakes!" Princess
Xian was relatively happy. Liu Fengyao returned to the yard with the account book. She thought she was proud, but after seeing the account book, Liu Fengyao's face turned black!
She stayed up all night, and the next morning she had dark circles under her eyes. She read the account book twice, and finally she had to admit one thing: Prince Xian’s Mansion was just an empty shell, and there was not even ten taels of silver in the warehouse!
"Madam..." The two maids who had been serving on the side were also stunned to see this result.
The two of them also stayed up all night, and the result was just like this... "It must be Leng Bingtang's bastard who was corrupt!" Liu Fengyao said viciously, and got up and walked out: "I'm going to find the prince! I'm going to report that bastard!" Qiulan hurriedly advised: "Madam, don't be anxious for the time being, the prince is not in the mansion now!" Liu Fengyao glanced at the sky outside. At this time, the court should not be dismissed yet. "But we can call the housekeeper over to ask!" Although she has been in Prince Xian's mansion for some time, Liu Fengyao has been locked up in this dilapidated courtyard and doesn't know anything about the mansion. Liu Fengyao thought that this was the truth, but she didn't expect the housekeeper to say... The housekeeper's tone seemed respectful, but his eyes were not. "Miss Liu, the mansion has been running out of money for a long time!" The housekeeper said helplessly: "During this period of time, if it weren't for the princess's dowry, the mansion couldn't even maintain its superficial prosperity!" Liu Fengyao felt her face turn pale. She remembered that Prince Xian had been trying to stop her from taking charge of the family yesterday, and she vowed that she could manage the family well. But a good cook can't cook without rice. How can she manage it now? "Why is the palace like this..." Liu Fengyao staggered and fell on the chair. "Miss Liu, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?" The housekeeper looked at Liu Fengyao speechlessly: "Thinking about your matter, the prince lost 400,000 taels of silver to Prince Yi's Palace. Where do you think this money came from?" Liu Fengyao felt that her eyes were getting darker. "The prince's usual expenses are not small, and he has no savings at all. You also know what happened last time. If the money cannot be taken out, our prince may lose his life. The general's mansion took some, and the queen gave a part, but in the end it was still not enough. All the profitable industries in the mansion have been sold, so now..." Liu Fengyao supported her head, feeling overwhelmed. If she had known this, she would never have taken on this hot potato. No wonder that jerk Leng Bingtang was so eager to hand over the power. "What's the matter with these shops?" She had just noticed that there were still three or four shops in the mansion, but it seemed that none of them made money. "This is the only industry of the palace! The prince will never sell it, but fortunately it won't cost much money!" The housekeeper looked sad, he didn't know why his master would fall to such a state. "Then I'll go and take a look!" Liu Fengyao gritted her teeth. Now she could only start with these shops! ... "Princess, Princess, something bad has happened. The little princess is missing!" In the blink of an eye, it was the annual Lantern Festival. Several maids hurried to the palace and fell to their knees. Liu Jiaojiao's face changed: "What do you mean? What do you mean the little princess is missing? Hasn't she been..." She glanced at the dark sky outside. It was already this hour, Yuan Baobao should have gone to bed, how could she suddenly disappear? Because today was the Lantern Festival, she had to go to the palace for something, and Yuan Baobao didn't want to go with her, so she arranged for a few people to accompany her at home. Who would have thought that someone would actually go missing? "Princess, spare my life!"
Several little girls kowtowed. Liu Jiaojiao stepped forward and pulled one of them up with force, her eyes red: "Stop kowtowing. Tell me what happened first. Why didn't you tell me when I came back?"
She had been back for half an hour. When she asked them, they said that the little princess was tired from playing and had already rested. But now...
"Princess, it's all my fault!"
The girl trembled with red eyes and recounted what happened this afternoon.
"The little princess said she hadn't seen the lanterns yet, but she wanted to go this afternoon. Without your consent, I was naturally unhappy! As a result, the little princess ran away secretly!"
Liu Jiaojiao felt a black screen in front of her eyes and she almost fainted.
Prince Yi came in and held her: "What happened?"
