Finally, with the approval of the eldest princess, Su Luo picked up the medicine box and took Yuzhu to the Qibei magistrate's office.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard angry curses inside.
"A bunch of trash, what's the use of feeding you with all the good food and drinks in the house! I check my pulse every day, but no one can tell that the princess has been poisoned. What if the princess has some evil deeds and peels off your skin!"
The voice was quite old, she must be an old woman.
The housekeeper who showed Su Luo the way led Su Luo into the house expressionlessly.
"Your Majesty, Princess, Sir, Madam, Princess Nanhuai brings us here!"
As soon as he informed, Su Luo walked into the house and saw Princess Ankang sitting on the bed with tears streaming down her face. Next to her sat a woman in luxurious clothes with an unkind expression. The curse she had just heard in the yard
It should be her.
King Ankang and the prefect of Qibei were sitting side by side across a square table. When Su Luo came in, neither of them got up.
Only the magistrate of Qibei made a fist in the air and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, Princess."
Su Luo only thought it was funny.
When we were in Kyoto, the intertwined forces of the aristocratic family were so powerful that when they met, they still had the proper etiquette. At the very least, they had to be decent.
It's better to go to Qibei because you don't even need to lose face anymore.
That's not right, maybe people just think that their orphans and widowed mothers depend on them, so they are so arrogant.
With a sigh in her heart, Su Luo looked at the other people in the room.
In order to ensure the authenticity of this "performance", Su Luo did not meet the people arranged by Xiao Yu in advance. Except for the doctors from the Ankang Palace who were kneeling on the ground, she was unfamiliar with everyone else.
"What are you doing standing still? Quickly detoxify the princess!" The woman sitting on the bed stood up and said to Su Luo with an unhappy look on her face.
Su Luo raised her eyebrows, "Are you... talking to me?"
The woman frowned, "Why are you still lingering? If I wasn't talking to you, it would be hard to talk to a ghost. If you delay the princess's life, you have to think clearly about the consequences."
Su Luo immediately laughed at this sentence, "Oh? What are the consequences?"
King Ankang and the prefect of Qibei both frowned and looked at Su Luo with expressions of displeasure and why are you so ignorant.
The magistrate of Qibei coughed and said: "Princess, you should know that now you are wanted criminals by the court. I only opened my eyes and turned a blind eye because King Ankang and General Xiao were once colleagues."
Just give you a place to live in Qibei.
If the court pursues this case, I will be responsible for covering up the crime."
What he said made Su Luoduo seem ignorant.
Su Luo laughed directly, "It's really interesting. It turns out that the military expenditures used by the Qibei Army in recent years were all allocated by the imperial court and were not sent by our prince? I just said, eating and drinking are using the military expenditures sent by our prince.
, why did you raise a bunch of white-eyed wolves? Is it a soil and water problem? I misunderstood. It turns out that you didn’t spend a penny on my prince.
Well, since we now rely on King Ankang and the prefect, please return the food, salary and military expenses that our prince has sent to you in the past five years, Yuzhu!"
Yuzhu stepped forward, took out a booklet from his body, and opened it, "In the past five years, I have accumulated 56.2 million taels of silver, 3,000 dans of grain and grass, and 928 kinds of medicinal herbs.
Two carriages, these have archived records."
King Ankang's face suddenly darkened, "What do you mean?"
Su Luo raised her chin slightly, showing no signs of losing her momentum, "It's not interesting. Let's just talk about it. You pay off the money and the debt, and I'll be a bull and a horse."
The prefect of Qibei turned to look at King Ankang, with a look of astonishment on his face, and almost blurted out, "So many?"
King Ankang:......
Now is the time to say this!
Qibei prefect:......
You told me that the King of Nanhuai only gave you 10,000 taels per quarter. How come in the past five years, four quarters a year, a total of 20 quarters, he has quoted tens of millions of taels.
Shouldn't the money be divided equally between us?
Why is the difference so big!
The prefect of Qibei felt that he had suffered a big loss, and his heart was clogged with pain.
The prefect's wife stood on her head with her eyebrows, a look of anger on her face, "People's lives are at stake, and you are still scheming to make a profit out of these petty things? If my daughter has something wrong with her, do you think you still have the life to spend money?"
Su Luo smiled at her, "Then I'll die now and be a companion with your daughter. Anyway, I don't have the life to spend money. What are I going to do with my life? Am I going to be poor?"
After saying that, Su Luo turned around and left.
"Stop her!" King Ankang stood up from his chair, his face twitching with ferocious muscles, "It seems that Princess Nanhuai likes to drink wine instead of having to drink as a penalty!"
Su Luo looked back at him, "I not only like to drink fine wine, I also like to drink mourning wine. Let me tell you clearly, the toxins in your princess's body have invaded her heart. Look at her eye sockets. If they invade again, they will become even darker. Use
In a few days, Qi Bei will have to hold a grand funeral, no, two, after all, both mother and son are dead!"
"How dare you curse my daughter!" The woman picked up a tea cup next to her and threw it at Su Luo.
Su Luo took a step forward directly, "If you dare to hit me, I will die here today without detoxifying her. I will wait for the black-haired person to send the white-haired person away!"
There was a coldness in Su Luo's eyes as she looked straight at the angry woman.
The woman grabbed all the teacups. She was frightened by these words and did not dare to throw them out. She was trembling with anger and said, "You, you, you... are so vicious-hearted that you are not afraid of retribution.
"
Bang!
Smashing the tea cup to the ground to vent his anger.
Su Luo sneered, "Anyway, I'm not the one who was poisoned. You can make trouble, but I don't care. I thought about it before I came here. At worst, I'm not afraid of death. Why am I afraid of being threatened? What a joke! Go out and ask around. I, Su Luo, don't worry.
I don’t have much experience, but I have a lot of experience being threatened!”
"It's been so long and we're still arguing! Is this poison in my body any longer cured?" Princess Ankang sat up in shock while she was dying, patting the bed and crying.
"Good girl, be patient and don't be impatient. I will detoxify you soon. Ah, it's okay. It's okay." The prefect's wife turned around and touched the princess's head, comforting her with a gentle voice.
After saying that, he looked at Su Luo.
"Are you here just to detoxify the princess? Now that you are here, why are you making a fuss? If you have any dissatisfaction, just say it, we are not using you in vain. Before you came, our housekeeper gave Her Royal Highness the Princess a hundred thousand taels of silver notes.
And a house!"
Su Luo was shocked by this self-righteous rhetorical question.
You are so high that the emperor is so far away that you don’t even need to have such a thing as face?
Su Luo smiled and said, "What am I making a fuss about? Let me think about it, I'm probably making a fuss. When I come in, none of you salute me and say hello?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked.
They were genuinely shocked from the bottom of their hearts.
His eyes changed, he looked at Su Luo like a fool.
The "poisoned" Princess Ankang expressed doubts in life, "I salute you? Why? This is Qibei!"
