The old butler stroked his beard and said, "Miss, Liu has been very close to the Second Prince's Mansion recently. I'm afraid..."
"The Second Prince?" A cold light flashed in Shen Weiwan's eyes. "It's just right. It's time for me to go and 'visit' him." She stood up and straightened her clothes. "Chun Tao, prepare the carriage and go to the Second Prince's mansion to deliver a 'big gift'."
Chun Tao blinked: "What gift?"
"Guess?" Shen Weiwan smiled mysteriously, "A gift that will surprise both the Second Prince and Liu."
As the carriage left the general's mansion, Shen Weiwan lifted a corner of the curtain and saw the carriage of the seventh prince Xiao Yu parked not far away. Xiao Yu lifted the curtain and waved the folding fan in his hand at her with his usual playful smile on his face.
Shen Weiwan also smiled at him and lowered the curtain. Although the Seventh Prince's "off-field support" was strange, it did help a lot. I just don't know what his plan is.
"Miss," Chun Tao asked softly, "Is His Highness the Seventh Prince..."
"Don't guess blindly," Shen Weiwan interrupted her, "First, deal with the current matter. The second prince wants to use Liu, so I will let them finish together."
As the carriage slowly drove towards the Second Prince's residence, Shen Weiwan already had a plan in mind. Teaching the servants to fleece the sheep was only the first step. Next, she would make the relationship between Liu and the Second Prince public and bring ruin to their reputation.
At this time, Liu was still angry about the monthly allowance, completely unaware that Shen Weiwan had already pointed the finger at her and the Second Prince. She looked at her haggard face in the mirror and gritted her teeth: "Shen Weiwan, just wait, I won't let you go!"
Shen Weiwan came to the Second Prince's Mansion and handed over the visiting card. The Second Prince was meeting guests in the study. When he heard that the daughter of the General's Mansion had come, he was a little surprised, but he still asked someone to invite her in.
"Miss Shen, you are honored to visit us. What instructions do you have for me?" The second prince sat in the first seat and spoke in a calm tone.
Shen Weiwan bowed and smiled innocently: "I dare not give you any advice, but I heard that the Second Prince's Mansion is in need of a housekeeper who is good at managing finances, so I came to recommend him."
The Second Prince raised an eyebrow: "Oh? I wonder who Miss Shen recommended?"
"It's not someone else," Shen Weiwan looked at Liu Shi beside her. She was there at some point, "it's my aunt Liu Shi. She's the best at 'financial management'. She's proficient in everything from withholding monthly payments to embezzling money from the treasury."
Liu's face suddenly changed: "Chen Weiwan, what nonsense are you talking about!"
"Am I talking nonsense?" Shen Weiwan took out an account book, "This is evidence of my aunt's embezzlement, a full 17,300 taels. If the Second Prince uses her, the money in your house will only go in and not out."
The Second Prince looked at the account book, his face darkening. He had originally intended to use Liu to spy on the General's Mansion, but he hadn't expected her to be so dishonest.
Liu was so frightened that she knelt on the ground: "Your Highness, don't listen to her nonsense! This is all forged!"
"Whether it's forged or not, we'll know once we check." Shen Weiwan smiled, "The Second Prince is so busy with affairs that he probably doesn't have time to deal with these trivial matters. Since your aunt is so good at managing money, why not let her stay in the Second Prince's mansion and 'display' her talents?"
The Second Prince looked at Liu with disgust in his eyes. He waved his hand and said, "Send her out."
Shen Weiwan bowed and left, leaving Liu shivering in the study. She knew that the Second Prince would never use Liu again, and might even dispose of her to disown him.
After leaving the Second Prince's Mansion, Chun Tao couldn't help but say, "Miss, your move is too cruel!"
"To deal with such people, you have to be ruthless." Shen Weiwan got into the carriage, "Go back to the mansion and wait to see the good show of the Second Prince."
Sure enough, within a few days, the news of the Second Prince's house being purged spread throughout the capital. Liu was driven out and returned to the general's house in disgrace.
When Shen Weiwan heard the news, she was teaching her servants new "financial management" skills. She put down the account book and smiled: "It seems that my aunt's 'bankruptcy' crisis has just begun."
The servants burst into laughter and were full of admiration for Shen Weiwan. Under her leadership, everyone not only got the monthly salary they deserved, but also vented their anger.
Shen Weiwan was also very happy when she saw the servants' happy faces. She not only wanted to protect the general's mansion, but also wanted everyone who followed her to live a good life. As for Liu and the second prince, their retribution was still to come.
