Chapter 115 The misunderstanding seems to be a bit big
"What should we do now?" Lou had never dealt with anything like this before, and for a moment, he had no idea what to do.
She looked at Song Qingci and asked carefully, "How about we arrest the butler and make him confess everything he has done over the years? And then make him return all the money?"
Song Qingci looked at Lou, their eyes met hers, and then Lou glanced away guiltily.
Song Qingci couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe her mother-in-law.
I couldn't help but sigh. To be specific, she was really lucky as a mother-in-law.
In her parents' family, she has her father and brothers, and after marriage, she has her husband and parents-in-law. Now she has become a mother-in-law, and there is also a daughter-in-law like her.
Anyway, there are people protecting me all the way, so it’s not an exaggeration to say that I’m a winner in life.
"Mother, don't worry about this matter, leave it to me. But no matter what I do or say, you must stand by me unconditionally." Song Qingci really didn't want to take on the job, but his teammates were too weak and he couldn't lead them at all.
When she leaves, she must take some more things with her, otherwise she will feel sorry for all the hard work.
Alas, she is really born to be a hard worker~
When Lou heard that Song Qingci was going to take over the matter, she was very happy.
She was just worried about not being able to think of a good solution, and Yunzhi's wife turned out to be a capable one.
"That's great. Ah Ci, just go for it, mother will definitely support you. Otherwise, I will take this opportunity to hand over the power of housekeeper to you as well." Lou thought her idea was good.
Anyway, she didn't like being the head of the household. Not only would it cause a lot of trouble, but she could also be easily deceived if she wasn't careful.
Song Qingci was shocked and quickly refused, "No, no. Mother, listen to me, you have to be the head of the family. I'm too young, I can't do it. What's more, I have to take care of Yunzhi's health, I really don't have time."
She must be crazy to want to be the head of the family. It sounds good to say that she is the head of the family. In fact, she is just a high-level employee.
Working diligently for the entire mansion, if you do well, that's what you deserve, if you don't do well, you'll be blamed. She didn't want to do this kind of thankless work.
Besides, she is not short of money and doesn't want to make any money from these trivial matters.
If it weren't for the fact that Xiaowangzhuang's incident involved a lot of people and it wasn't easy for her to get rid of all the blame here, she wouldn't have offered to help.
Seeing that Song Qingci was unwilling, Lou was somewhat disappointed. It was the rule that the eldest daughter-in-law was in charge of the family. She didn't want to do it either, but there was nothing she could do. After all the hard work of having the eldest grandson's wife, she wanted to be lazy but failed.
I thought of my son's "hidden illness" again, which is indeed the biggest problem at the moment.
Then she will just work hard for a while. Once she has grandchildren, it will not be too late to hand over the power of the family.
At that time, Yunzhi’s wife should have no excuse to refuse.
The General's Mansion was trying to purge the traitors in the mansion, while in the study of Jingzhao Mansion, they were also secretly investigating matters concerning their lives and property.
Zhang Quanhe pulled Li Zhengyang into the study, and then ordered his personal servant to guard the door outside and not allow anyone to come in.
After receiving the instructions, the servant closed the study door from the outside, then retreated to the corridor, and diligently watched over the people coming and going. Anyone who wanted to approach would be stopped by him and driven away, no matter who they were.
For a time, the study room in Jingzhao Mansion became a private place where people could speak freely.
"Brother Zhengyang, what exactly did you mean just now? Please tell me in detail." Zhang Quanhe no longer cared about the interests and hierarchy, and sat directly opposite Li Zhengyang, urging him to quickly give some answers he wanted to hear.
"Sir, the current situation is actually very clear." Li Zhengyang said slowly, "In fact, the number of people who can turn the officialdom of the capital upside down overnight is no more than one hand." After saying that, he stretched out his palm and turned it in front of Zhang Quanhe.
"In this case, think about it carefully, apart from the people over there, is there anyone else who needs to do this? ! "
Zhang Quanhe stared in deep thought, doing such a thing must have a motivation.
Who could make enemies with so many officials in the imperial court at once? Not to mention some wealthy businessmen in the capital.
You should know that in Dachen, commercial taxes are very heavy.
The amount of taxes these wealthy businessmen pay every year is considerable.
He had just looked at the list compiled by Li Zhengyang. The youngest official was a ninth-rank city gate officer, and the oldest was a second-rank Chief Censor.
If we want to make enemies, we can make enemies with all the civil and military officials from top to bottom.
There were also the wealthy merchants numbering over eighty. Among them were not only imperial merchants, but also salt merchants, cloth merchants, grain merchants, and grocers.
Almost all industries involved in the capital are included.
This is a complete revelation of someone's past.
"And, sir, you can imagine that although they did not kill these people directly, they used more cruel means to humiliate them. These people were all naked and appeared in the most prosperous, lively and crowded places."
"What's the difference between these people and death? It's better for them to die directly. How can those officials enter the court again? ! I'm afraid that even if they are willing to sacrifice their dignity, the emperor will not allow it. The officials of a country actually appeared naked on the most prosperous street in the capital for people to see. The emperor will probably think of this situation when he sees them in the future. Isn't this a slap in the face?"
"And how can those merchants continue to show up in public and do business? Who would be willing to continue to cooperate with people with bad morals? There are so many people doing business in the world, there is no need to do this. And the business in the hands of those people will either be handed over to other tribesmen or sold to others at a low price. Anyway, it is estimated that my family will never be able to make any waves again."
"In this case, the impact of these people being alive is indeed greater than if they were all dead. If they were really dead, they would be forgotten after three to five years. But as long as these people are alive, the impact of this incident will not really disappear."
"I don't know who the counselor of Dayan is now, but the person who can come up with such a plan is definitely not easy to deal with." When Li Zhengyang learned about this, he firmly felt that it must have been done by Dayan. Otherwise, everything could not be explained at all.
Song Qingci: A-choo! Who is tickling me from behind?
