Chapter 40

It's a pity that Pianruo couldn't even take a small dagger with her in the armory, which was really shocking.

If it weren't for the pattern of this space to be cheating enough, except for Pianruo herself, everything that Wuye and Huazhiniao put out would disappear, and Pianruo felt that she had already become the richest man in the world.

As soon as he left the space, Luo's crying voice came over.

"Ruo'er, you are awake. If you don't wake up again, there will be no place for us and my wife in the Duke Protector's Mansion."

Pian Ruo blinked her eyes, what's going on?
She passed Luo Shi, and looked at the two little maids, Dai Mo and Dai Heng.

The teardrops in Damo's eyes had just been wiped dry, and she sobbed and said: "Miss, you don't know, since the eldest lady passed the preliminary round of the religious test, she subdued the strange fire on the altar overnight, and she has the vulture dragon With the beast and the strange fire in hand, His Majesty began to support her, and issued an imperial decree, asking our wife to return all the dowry that His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess received in the early years to the eldest lady, and the money that should have been assigned to the eldest lady over the years The money must also be paid off.”

Dai Heng added: "But where does our wife have so much money? Besides, our wife is not the only one who gets the dowry of His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, and the second wife also takes it. Why should we let our wife pay it all? Isn't this clearly embarrassing people?"

Pianruo condescends, since Shangguan Pianwu is back, returning the property is an inevitable event, no matter how reluctant it is, I have to return it, it is not my own, after all, it is not my own, and if I return it sooner, maybe it will save some troubles.

"Mother, since she asked us to pay back, let's pay her back!"

When Luo Shi heard Shangguan Pianruo say this, her soft voice immediately became shrill and thin, "Ruo'er, are you sleepy? Can you say such words?"

Thinking back when Di Yuehua married into Shangguan's family, the dowry was so large that the entire warehouse of Duke Huguo's Mansion couldn't fit it in. Duke Huguo's Mansion hurriedly rebuilt a new warehouse so that all the best things could be arranged.

Luo Shi is just a boudoir lady in a small household, although she has never had to worry about food and clothing, but how can the things she has seen compare with Di Yuehua's?

It's been ten years, and in order to stabilize her position, she has to take care of everything inside and out. The things left by Di Yuehua have already been divided up by her and Erfang, and sold off, so what else is left?
Not to mention returning all of them according to the gift list, even if it was half, Luo Fangfei would not be able to get it back.

"Mother, now that Shangguan Pianwu has contracted the vulture dragon beast and subdued the strange fire that caused His Majesty a headache, it can be said that she is gaining momentum. She is no longer the Shangguan Pianwu who left us to deal with ten years ago. She was able to come back today with the imperial decree to do her best, which means that the backer behind her is the current His Majesty, someone who can't even offend my grandfather, how can we confront her head-on?"

Pian Ruoyu held Luo Fangfei's hand earnestly and explained everything to her.

Roche is a shrewd person, but his eyesight is too shallow.

"Forcing us to return those things is only the first step. As long as we return them obediently, won't it be a matter of time for Shangguan Pianwu to deal with them at the second room?"

"So mother, the only thing we have to do now is to make Shangguan Pianwu not pick on our faults. She can't find our faults, so naturally she can't do anything to us."

Luo Shi's eyes lit up when Pianruo said, "Yeah, you see, I'm confused, as long as what we do is humanely acceptable, the second room can't be arrogant, and can only obediently eat the food we have eaten all these years. Thing, spit it out to me, they are much more sad than us."

Pianruo nodded: "Mother is clear, one point is enough."

"I have always gotten along well with the brothers and sisters in the third room. You are also clear about the dispositions of the third uncle and the third aunt. One is only obsessed with dancing and writing, and the other is a peaceful husband and son. Those who have been staying in the Canglang Sect for many years, can't come back once in a few years, let alone Jingyun, who travels around with Master Yixian all the year round, and live in the capital for only a handful of time. As for Pianrou, a daughter of a concubine , although she has a bit of a hot temper, but she was taught well by the third aunt, as long as we don't offend her, she will naturally not offend us, and she has a non-competitive temper, and in the end, the most sad thing is undoubtedly the second room."

"We are broad-minded, capable of bending and stretching. There is such a powerful second aunt on the second uncle's side. Coupled with the virtues of Shangguan Jinglan and Shangguan Pianran, asking them to spit out what they eat is not following them. Fate?"

The more Luo Shi listened, the more he felt that what Pianruo said was reasonable, but the most important thing was still unresolved.

"Ruo'er is right, but how can we get so many things out?"

You must know that when Shangguan Pianwu took out her mother's dowry list, the thick stacks of list books were piled up on a table, and the number was so large that it was scary.

Although Luo Shi probably knew how much Di Yuehua's dowry had been privately embezzled over the years, but she never went into detail. When Shangguan Pianwu took it out, her mind went blank at that time. Yes, I didn't expect so many, it's normal.

Pianruo thought for a while, and said: "You make a list of all the things you have embezzled over the years. We only pay what we should pay. After all, the second room got more of those things. I will figure out a way for the money, mother. You don't have to worry about it. In addition, you have to take out all the farms and shops under Shangguan Pianwu's name, as well as the account books of how much they make and how much they lose every year, and list them one by one in front of Shangguan Pianwu. Just pay it off once and for all, and also give back the money earned from the shop."

"Ruo'er, where did you get so much money?"

The sum of these figures is not a small sum, even the entire Duke Protector's Mansion may not be able to be given out immediately, Pianruo is only a lady in the boudoir, how can she say that she can get it?

"Mother, don't worry, I said I can take it out, so I can take it out naturally. Those accounts can't be sorted out in a day or two. You have to hurry up to do it. I will go to Yuewuju in a while. We will discuss it with Shangguan Pianwu and let her give us a few days to prepare."

After finishing the sentence, Pianruo added, "Seven days should be about the same."

After comforting Luo Shi, Pianruo didn't even have time to drink her saliva, so she went to Yuewuju by herself.

There are more servants in Yuewu's center who are responsible for washing, sweeping and cleaning. Dairui has come a long way, and she only needs to accompany Shangguan Pianwu and listen to his orders.
