Chapitre 277: Chapter 277: The Master of the Prefecture 9

"Going over the lines? Well, the father can go out and make some inquiries. Which family in the capital has not search the rooms before? I was just punishing a little to prevent a bigger mistake. Compared to other families, this is still called going over the lines?"

Huang Bei Yue directly walked out. She walked to the door and raised her fingers, saying: "What are you standing here for? Quickly help the housekeeper Zhou up!"

A couple of stunned servants, as soon as they heard Huang Bei Yue's orders, they subconsciously followed the commands. They walked over and pulled housekeeper Zhou up who was holding tightly onto the boxes as though an octopus.

Dong Ling opened the cover of the box. At that moment, golden-bright lights assaulted people's faces. In there, there was actually a whole box of golden treasures! There were many different kinds of delicate items and on the top, it was embedded with different colored gems. That type of light nearly blinded one's eyes.

The housekeeper, all of a sudden was like a balloon that had air leaking out. He fell limp on the ground.

Dong Ling consecutively opened the other boxes. Each time she opened one, the surrounding people will all let out a cold gasp. In these boxes, it contained all valuable golden and silver wares. There were also antiques, paintings, jade artifacts, coral, pearls, etc. They were a dazzling sight to the eyes leading it to be a feast for the eyes.

Huang Bei Yue stared at the housekeeper Zhou who seemed to be flattened. In her heart, she was cheering for herself for catching him! She just wanted to open her mouth to let people beat him up with sticks and force him to say who was the person that made him hide all these items is.

He was just a small housekeeper. Even if he had a lot of courage, he definitely would not dare to steal that many items from the prefecture of Princess Zhang. Does he take those brilliant concubines to be blind people?

She hadn't opened her mouth when Xiao Yuan Cheng had already done so, screeched at him: "What a great servant for lying to your superiors and hiding it from your kind. You dared to secretly store all these valuables. Do you know what crime you're committing right now?"

Xiao Yuan Cheng walked out, kicking the housekeeper Zhou over. If there was a sword in his hand, he probably would've killed him with a sword already!

Housekeeper Zhou answered, scaredly: "This person understands that he is wrong, understands that he is wrong. These things, this person didn't secretly store them. I was, trying to place them and then carry them into the storage room!"

"If it was supposed to be carried into the storage room, then how come you wouldn't let us search it before?" Dong Ling wasn't that easy to be lied to. She immediately inquired.

Housekeeper Zhou responded: "It's because this person is afraid, is afraid that this person will be accused by the Princess…"

"Nonsense! The Princess can distinguish the right from the wrong! How could she accuse wrongly of you! I see that you are probably just lying to us!" Dong Ling yelled, raising her hand. At this time, she was not afraid of that Xiao Yuan Cheng.

"Lord, secretly storing these valuables is a serious crime. Based on this maid's views, he should be sent to Ting Wei Si for them to investigate this."

Ting Wei Si, if he was sent to Ting Wei Si, then what good would that be! That Ting Wei Geng was famous for being upright and plainspoken. If he were to investigate this, then the whole prefecture of Princess Zhang will be under investigation. Then at that time, no one would be able to escape!

"Family shames must not be spread abroad. If this matter were to be revealed, there will be many people watching a joke! Why send him to Ting Wei Si?" Xiao Yuan Cheng lowly hollered.

"Father is saying the right thing." Huang Bei Yue looked at the boxes filled with treasures and her face was icy cold: "Housekeeper Zhou, my mother, when she was still alive, she treated you not badly. What you had done today, really opened lens to a new world ah!"

"Princess, Princess, show some mercy ah…" Housekeeper Zhou kneeled on the ground. He was shaking and kept on asking for mercy.

Huang Bei Yue responded: "If I were to send you to Ting Wei Si, based on your crimes, not only will you die but your wives and children will all be on the book of servants. In the master's house, stealing, the faces will be marked with the stamp of a servant. This whole life, you won't have a day where you will be free!"

Housekeeper Zhou kept on trembling and the teeth were chattering. He secretly raised his head towards Xiao Yuan Cheng and Concubine Qin. These precious treasures, he won't be able to obtain any of them. However, he was doing this for the Lord and Concubine Qin. If something were to happen to him, they probably won't let him just take on the crime names himself right?


Chapitre 278: Chapter 278: The Master of the Prefecture 10

"However-" Huang Bei Yue changed the word, faintly exclaiming: "Housekeeper Zhou had been in the prefecture of Princess Zhang for many years. You have done a lot of labor. Although you had made a mistake and was confused, however, your crime isn't serious to the point where you need to die. You also don't need to be sent to Ting Wei Si."

Housekeeper Zhou let out a sigh. Xiao Yuan Cheng also let out a long sigh of relief, secretly feeling lucky.

Only Concubine Xue slightly scrunched her eyebrows. How would this girl easily just let this go? If she didn't use this chance to go all out then what was the point of going through all that work from before?

As she thought about this, she heard Huang Bei Yue slowly explaining: "Today, we had searched so many items from the housekeeper Zhou's room. Most likely, from before, there was even more. After I checked the account books and match it with the items within the storage room, all the things missing, as long as housekeeper Zhou returns them all then it will be fine."

Housekeeper Zhou rapidly lifted his head: "Princess, all these things…"

"No matter whether you hid them or sold them since housekeeper has the courage to steal these items, then most likely all these years, you've gained a lot of profit from this. You need to think of ways to make up for this!" Huang Bei Yue glanced at him, coldly announcing this.

Housekeeper Zhou was flabbergasted.

All these years, all the things missing from the prefecture of Princess Zhang, she is making him carry the blame for all and compensating for this? Then wouldn't be become the foolish one?

He was just helping someone do their things and although he had gotten many rewards all these years, how was it enough compared to these precious treasures?

This matter of compensating, even if the Lord or Concubine Qin does this instead, they might not even be able to compensate for all.

All these years, all the things that they had sold from the prefecture of Princess Zhang, they probably aren't even able to keep track of this.

Housekeeper Zhou thought that this matter had already turned into a huge issue, not something a small housekeeper was able to endure.

He raised his head to look at Xiao Yuan Cheng only to see that his face was filled with gloominess and harshness. He looked Pei Yu who stood by Concubine Qin's side, sinisterly.

Housekeeper Zhou's heart was chilly. That Pei Yu was his only daughter. By Concubine Qin's side, she was a maid who delivered tea and water. Concubine Qin said that she would treat her as though her own daughter. In the future, when it was time for her to marry, she will be married according to the manner of a young lady.

His wife had died early on and he – himself was one who wasn't able to give birth. He was depending on this daughter to look after him when he was old. However, what was Xiao Yuan Cheng's meaning right now? He was going to use Pei Yu to threaten him?

As long as he assumed the crimes, later on when discussing compensation, it will naturally come by slowly. Xiao Yuan Cheng will have to think of ideas for him…

Huang Bei Yue was such an intelligent person and no one would be able to win against her when talking about mental tactics. She slightly looked at Xiao Yuan Cheng and housekeeper Zhou's face and knew right then, what ideas they were trying to play at.

The corner of her mouth slightly curled up into an angle and she glanced at Dong Ling. Her eyes floated to Pei Yu by Concubine Qin's side.

Dong Ling was a smart girl. She knew what was going on. Smiling: "Sister Pei Yu, normally, I have been seeing that you are different from the other maids. Whether it was the things you eat or wear, it was not any worse than how a master would be treated. As it turned out, housekeeper Zhou has many side doors ah. It was no wonder that the outsiders are saying that Pei Yu from the prefecture of Princess Zhang was the real young miss!"

Pei Yu's face turned pale white. She hurriedly kneeled down, panicking: "Concubine, Princess, this maid didn't ah! Every time this maid goes out with the concubine, the concubine was always the one well-regarded ah. How could this maid be compared to the concubine?"

"Oh?" Dong Ling grinned again: "Sister Pei Yu is saying that the concubine is well-regarded? How well regarded?"

Concubine Qin kicked Pei Yu over. If you don't know how to speak then shut up! Saying that out loud, they will be using this against us! Such an idiot!
