Concubine You Can't: The Evil Emperor Dotes on Qingcheng Concubine

Chapter 15 The Truth About Huifu

Xuetong looked at Ji Zhuyu in disbelief, not understanding why the eldest lady suddenly became so strict, she didn't even lose her temper when she knocked over the jewelry box just now.

"Miss, you misunderstood, the servant really didn't steal anything."

Ji Zhuyu snorted coldly, and then said: "You really don't shed tears when you see the coffin. As early as when you dressed me up and said that there was no white jade phoenix head and golden hairpin, I suspected you of stealing things. I don't care about the jewelry my father sent me. Most of them don't like it, so I just ask you to keep it well, and I don't usually ask carefully. However, I have a bad habit, as long as it is about money, I will remember it clearly, so unfortunately, my father Although I have never used the jewelry that was sent, I remember every style of the jewelry clearly. Now, what else do you have to say."

As the female president of the group, she always likes to manage money by herself.As for her own private property, she is even more thorough, able to explain the whereabouts of every sum of money, even if it is the money for a bowl of noodles, she also knows the style and price of each set of jewelry she owns, and will never wrong.

For this reason, she was ridiculed by her girlfriends many times, saying that she was stingy, the president of the majestic Ye Group, the emperor's daughter, even had to write down the money for a bowl of noodles.

As the arbiter of the group, she has always believed in a principle, if she can't even manage her own money well, how can she manage a large company like Nuo Da?

In this way, this bad habit that can be called obsessive-compulsive disorder was also brought here, exposing Xuetong's lies.

Seeing that the matter had been brought to light, a look of despair appeared on Xuetong's face.

But after a while, her expression suddenly became strange, her eyes widened, and she yelled at Ji Zhuyu angrily: "That's right, I planned to steal these things, and I also stole the white jade phoenix head hairpin. However, I will not admit my mistake, I deserve these things."

Ji Zhuyu has always distinguished rewards and punishments, if Xuetong admits her mistakes like this, and then piously admits her mistakes, she may give her a chance to reform herself.

After all, she came from a modern society ruled by law, and she really couldn't accept the cruel punishment of the ancients who chopped off the hands of the thief.

But Xuetong not only didn't know how to repent, but threatened that she deserved it, which undoubtedly completely angered Ji Zhuyu.

She has always been casual, but there is a bottom line that cannot be crossed no matter what.That is, she will fight to the death with anyone who dares to steal her money.

It is precisely because of this bottom line that cannot be crossed that Ji Zhuyu can make great strides all the way in the cruel commercial competition of modern society, making the Ye Group the world's largest chaebol in terms of assets.

"Since you are so stubborn, then I will fulfill you. Mama Zhao, hand her over to Mama Liu, who is in charge of punishment in the mansion, for stealing the master's property."

Mama Liu is the old mother of the mansion, who specially punishes the maids and servants who have committed crimes in the mansion. She has a gloomy and cruel personality.

Zhao's mother looked at Xuetong with a little pity, as if she couldn't bear it.But under the coercion of Ji Zhuyu, he still stepped forward and grabbed Xuetong, grabbed her arm and dragged her out of the house, and kept saying, "Come with me obediently. Thinking of stealing your master's belongings is a big taboo, now no one can protect you."

Xuetong's strength was no match for Zhao's mother. When she passed the threshold, she quickly reached out and clasped the door panel, and said sharply to Ji Zhuyu: "Miss, I am not wrong. Anyway, I have to die with you on the day you get married. I will get some pension in advance." What's wrong with Jin subsidizing the family?"

Xuetong's words were like a stone stirring up thousands of waves, and everyone was stunned.

Ji Zhuyu was taken aback, what did she mean by that?
Mother Zhao looked at her in astonishment, and after realizing what she said, she said eagerly, "Xuetong, you are dying, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Xuetong immediately retorted unceremoniously: "From the moment I entered the Huanxi Courtyard, my life was gone. Now that things have happened, I have nothing to fear."

From Xuetong's words, Ji Zhuyu sensed that something else seemed to be hidden. She asked, "What did you mean by that sentence just now? Although I planned to hand you over to Mother Liu, I didn't intend to kill you."

Xuetong heard the words, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Zhao's mother forcibly: "Xuetong, you can't say it, this is the master's order, do you think your family will have a difficult life in the rest of their lives?"

master? ! There is only one person in the mansion called the master, and Ji Zhuyu vaguely guessed that this secret seems to be related to herself.

Xuetong sneered, "Mother Zhao, it's your own business to accept your fate, I won't accept your fate. You are not too young now, and you don't have many years to live, so it doesn't matter what you do, but I'm different, I'm still young, and I still have many good days to live, I'm not willing to die without knowing why."

Mother Zhao lowered her head gradually when she heard the words, tears rolled in her eyes, she didn't continue to stop Xuetong.

"Miss, do you know why the master suddenly brought you back?"

Ji Zhuyu's heart skipped a beat and she shook her head.

Xuetong said: "He intends to marry you to Old General Huo's only son, Huo Qing."

It turned out that her father pointed out the marriage to her, no wonder he couldn't wait to pick her up.However, Ji Zhuyu felt that the name Huo Qing was extremely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it before.

Xuetong continued: "Old General Huo is a hero who founded the country, and even the emperor respects him three points. His only son, Huo Qing, has married two regular wives before and after, and both of them are young ladies from prominent families, but his two wives I haven't lived for a month after marrying into the Huo family. So now people in Jinzhou are spreading rumors that the young master of the Huo family ordered Rick's wife, and all the women who marry into the Huo family will die. Miss, do you think you Can you survive safely?"

Ji Zhuyu doesn't believe that people will be restrained to death, it's just the superstition of the ancients: "It's just rumors spread by the common people, even if I marry into the Huo family, I may not be restrained to death."

Zhao's mother on the side suddenly said: "It's just rumors that he can't kill his wife, but the young master of the Huo family is a tyrannical person who takes pleasure in beating women. The old slave's nephew worked as a poor man in the Huo family for several years. I saw with my own eyes that the young master of the Huo family beat the daughter-in-law who had passed through the family for no reason. As a result, the new daughter-in-law was beaten to death within a month after passing through the family, but he declared that the new daughter-in-law died of illness. Miss Yi, the Duke’s House did not believe that his daughter, who had been healthy since childhood, would suddenly die of illness. He sued Old General Huo before the emperor, saying that the Huo family abused Princess Zhao to death. However, the government has formed a relationship with the Huo family."

Zhao's mother paused and continued: "This incident caused a lot of trouble at the time, so the tyrannical character of the young master of the Huo family was also exposed. From then on, no one dared to marry his daughter into the Huo family."

Ji Zhuyu thought about Zhao's mother's words back and forth, and said hesitantly: "According to what you think, my father wants to marry me in order to win over the Huo family, but what does this have to do with Xuetong stealing things?"
