Chapter 114: Confrontation

Chu Jingchuan wanted to refute a few words, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't speak for a while.

After seeing Lian Qiu bring the tea, Chu Jingchuan had a cold face, picked up the teacup, and drank a few sips in succession.

Shen Jiayin saw that Chu Jingchuan didn't speak, so he didn't continue to say anything, after all, Chu Jingchuan was the master of the prince's mansion after all, and he couldn't let him get off the stage too much.

After half a cup of tea, Fu Bo brought Liu Ruyan and Ji Wanyi over.

"The concubine/slave has seen the crown prince and the crown princess."

Liu Ruyan was apprehensive in her heart, after all, if nothing big happened, His Royal Highness would not let them gather together, could it be that the affairs in the palace were discovered?

Probably not, if it was really discovered, it would definitely not wait until now to settle the account.

Seeing Liu Ruyan and Ji Wanyi coming, Chu Jingchuan calmed down and put down the teacup in his hand.

Chu Jingchuan, who had a calm face and did not speak, had a majesty on his body, which was the majesty that belonged to the royal family.

After Liu Ruyan and Ji Wanyi saw it, they both looked at Chu Jingchuan nervously.

After a while, Chu Jingchuan said lightly:

"I heard that you all sent people to sell the dowry today?"

Hearing Chu Jingchuan's words, Liu Ruyan and Ji Wanyi both lowered their heads, and even acquiesced to Chu Jingchuan's words.

Seeing this, the tone in Chu Jingchuan's words was also a little heavier:

"What happened in the house, and what happened to make you make this decision?"

"Huh?"

Hearing Chu Jingchuan's successive questions, the heads of the two were buried lower, and even the maids they brought with them lowered their heads nervously and did not dare to speak.

Shen Jiayin sat on the side and looked at the two with interest.

Liu Ruyan sells her dowry, after all, she loses her temper and smashes things in the courtyard every day.

But Ji Wanyi wants to sell her dowry, which is very strange, she has always been good, when will she be reduced to selling her dowry?

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Chu Jingchuan looked up at Ji Wanyi and said coldly:

"Concubine Ji, tell me, you are in charge of the house, the money is all yours, what happened, even you have to sell the dowry?"

Ji Wanyi raised her head with a bitter face, and knelt down with a snap.

She looked at Chu Jingchuan and said helplessly:

"Your Highness is angry, it's not that the concubine deliberately sold the dowry, it's really because there is no money in the house......"

Chu Jingchuan looked at Ji Wanyi in shock and said coldly:

"This huge prince's mansion still needs you to sell your dowry to support it?"

"It is precisely because of this huge prince's mansion that there are many places to spend money......

Ji Wanyi smiled bitterly, rarely dared to look up at Chu Jingchuan, and said loudly:

"Your Highness, do you know how much you have in a month?"

It was rare to see Ji Wanyi ask so hardly, Shen Jiayin looked at Ji Wanyi with appreciation and nodded, well, he is a backbone.

Chu Jingchuan frowned, why did his side concubines learn Shen Jiayin's backbone one by one now?

"Your Royal Highness, do you know how to spend money when Concubine Liu is in charge of the house? Those delicacies from the mountains and seas were sent to Jingya Temple like flowing water, and the famous painting treasures were also bought and put in Jingya Temple as if they were worthless? ”

"Y-You!"

Liu Ruyan saw that Ji Wanyi actually said this about herself, and immediately stood up, pointed at Ji Wanyi and retorted:

"When I was in charge of the family, why didn't I say that I would sell the dowry to fill the prince's mansion? How did you start shouting poor when you came to you? ”

"I see, some people are enriching themselves, right?!"

The more Liu Ruyan spoke, the more proud she became, and the eyes that looked at Ji Wanyi were like looking at a prisoner who was really filling her pockets.

Hearing Liu Ruyan's words, Chu Jingchuan's face also darkened a little.

If there is really corruption in the little prince's mansion, then he will be severely punished.

But Ji Wanyi just glanced at Liu Ruyan lightly, and then continued:

"Concubine Liu has been in charge of the house for less than ten days, and there is still a lot of money in the house at that time! But what about ten days later? This mess is in the hands of the concubine. ”

"The concubine knocked out the abacus and smoked, but she still didn't think of a way to let the prince's mansion spend the next days when there was no money!"

"Youβ€”don't slander me!"

Liu Ruyan's face turned red, and she pointed at Ji Wanyi and screamed.

Ji Wanyi didn't give Liu Ruyan a straight look, but looked at Chu Jingchuan Fushen and said:

"Your Highness, what the concubine said is true, and there are account books to prove it."

"If Your Highness can't do it, the concubine can let Yun Jin go and bring the account book to His Highness to see!"

After Ji Wanyi finished speaking, she directly gave Yun Jin a look, and Yun Jin quietly retreated.

"Tut-tut, fortunately, this princess is not really in charge of the house, otherwise the dowry of this princess will not be guaranteed~"

Shen Jiayin knocked the melon seeds on the side, shook his head again and again, and said with a regretful and happy expression.

"Shut up."

Chu Jingchuan looked at Shen Jiayin unhappily and reprimanded.

If it was normal, Shen Jiayin would definitely talk back, but now, Shen Jiayin still wanted to continue watching the play, so she shrank her head and closed her mouth.

Chu Jingchuan frowned and looked at Liu Ruyan with a dark face, and asked sternly:

"Ruyan, you say, what Ji Wanyi said, but is it true?"

"Your Highness, the concubine has been wronged!"

When Liu Ruyan heard this, she immediately knelt down, and the big tears fell from her eyes one by one, and she said while sobbing:

"Your Royal Highness, when the concubine first came to the Prince's Mansion, she did eat a little more every day, but that was because when the concubine was in Liufu, the palace doctor told the concubine that the concubine's body must be maintained every day, otherwise the concubine will be dizzy every day as before."

"That's why the concubines will eat and make up for it, and the doctors of Liufu can testify to these!"

Ji Wanyi sneered on the side, obviously not believing Liu Ruyan's cowardice.

"And those calligraphy and painting ornaments, they are just worthless things, and the concubine likes them, so she uses them to fiddle with them."

"Worthless stuff? I don't think so, don't say anything else, just the catkins spring breeze picture hanging in your room, that's the handwriting of Master Wang Ming, can that thing be worthless? Or is it just worthless in your eyes? ”

Shen Jiayin was on the side, and made up for it in time.

Liu Ruyan immediately put away her tears and glared at Shen Jiayin fiercely.

Her tears are only for His Highness.

Shen Jiayin calmly picked up the teacup and drank it indifferently.

She is not afraid of Liu Ruyan, it is rare to have a chance to fall into the well, she must throw a little more stones! Relieve the hatred in your heart.
